T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World

The cost of orange tea for breakfast is generally no more than 4 yuan.

Lunch consisted of bread and biscuits bought in advance for breakfast, along with water, costing no more than 4 yuan in total.

For dinner, she would allow herself to splurge a little, ordering a meal of rice with one meat dish, one vegetable dish, and two liang (approximately 100 grams) for about 7 yuan.

Of course, thanks to Jiang Heyi's guidance, I learned which auntie was easy to talk to and how to make sure I was in the cafeteria when it was less crowded, which always gave me some extra perks.

Sometimes it's a piece of fish belly meat, sometimes it's a spoonful of braised tofu.

She has very few miscellaneous expenses; 20 yuan is enough for her to spend in a day, and most of the time she has more than enough.

"Add a tea egg."

"Okay, you're treating yourself to an extra meal today. Did something good happen?"

Orange Tea nodded vigorously, thinking about the 20 yuan that was about to arrive, about the things in the game, and about the upcoming National Day holiday.

Yes, a lot of good things have happened.

After breakfast, Orange Tea didn't go back to her dorm. Instead, she found a quiet place to continue studying on her own.

The atmosphere in the dormitory was so subtle that she felt increasingly uncomfortable.

My phone rang; it was from the school's delivery point.

"Su Mian, there's a package for you. Come and pick it up."

Guessing that it was a gift from her parents, Su Mian quickly set off.

When she arrived at the courier point, she was dumbfounded.

Two huge, yellowish-green urea bags, with their bulky shapes, forcefully occupied the conspicuous position in front of the express delivery point.

"Su Mian?"

"Ah, yes..."

She blankly scanned the QR code with her phone, then stood frozen in front of the two urea bags.

I weighed them, and they weighed a total of 62 jin (31 catties).

"Dad, Mom...you've given us way too much."

To avoid disrupting the courier point, Su Mian dragged two bags of urea to an open space and began sorting them.

Dried sweet potatoes, dried longans, and chestnuts were all wrapped in red or black plastic bags, with chicken bone grass serving mainly as a foam pad in this thick pile of local produce.

The six jars of wildflower honey must have been taken from the neighbor next door.

The dried longan was homemade, while the dried sweet potato and chestnuts were probably bought from villagers.

I'm so glad my parents didn't put mangoes or anything in the orange tea, otherwise it would have gone bad.

Only 3 copies needed to be sent to other provinces, which was a huge help.

She shared the coordinates with Jiang Heyi, Zhong Zemo, and Siyuanti, all of whom were in Chengning City, so they could pick up their food and taste it as soon as possible.

After doing all this, Orange Tea hesitated for a moment.

She divided the contents slightly from the six already packaged portions, making enough for a large plastic bag.

"Su Mian, is this yours?"

Orange Tea turned around and saw that it was her two roommates. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and quickly smiled, "Yes, it was sent from home."

Two roommates gathered around and, seeing that the orange tea had already been mixed in the plastic bag, grabbed a handful of dried longan and dried sweet potato, their expressions immediately turned unnatural.

Is it clean?

Orange Tea's hand froze as if she'd been electrocuted.

"Never mind, you can keep it and eat it yourself."

Once they were gone, Orange Tea took the contents of the seventh bag and gave them back to Orange Tea.

Around noon, Jiang Heyi returned to the familiar campus and easily found the courier point.

Holy crap, so many?

After confirming with the orange tea maker that this was the amount left for them, he happily carried the two bags home.

Zhong Zemo, who was busy in the kitchen, heard a "plop" and poked his head out.

"what?"

"Of course, it's the orange tea that's prepared, it's a good thing."

After taking off his apron, Zhong Zemo came closer.

"Wow, dried longan, mmm~~~ so sweet." Zhong Zemo skillfully bit through the crisp peel with his teeth, and his eyes lit up the moment his tongue touched the dried fruit. "It reminds me of the two longan trees in my family when I was a child."

Nothing tastes better than those from childhood.

"I envy you guys who have trees at home." Jiang Heyi picked out dried sweet potatoes. "It's been a long time since I've had them. The last time was... when I bought snacks online and it was on sale, I just grabbed a portion to reach the discount threshold."

Jiang Heyi took a bite directly, and the sweet taste spread in her mouth.

"What else?"

"Chestnuts, we can make soup tonight. It should smell really good." Zhong Zemo was eager to try it when he saw the good ingredients.

"Then you're in for a treat! Look what this is—honey!"

"Buy some chicken drumsticks and wings, we'll grill them tonight."

"A cup of chicken bone tea after a meal, perfect."

Jiang Heyi quickly expressed her gratitude in the group chat.

"All items have been received and inspected. Zhong Zemo is really showing off his dried longan, but I estimate this bag of stuff won't last much longer."

Tetraprototype also took a picture: "My mom really likes it. It reminds her of the days when we lived in the countryside. These were all good things."

The fact that the four prototypes had free time to go home at noon suggests that they were quite confident about the 20 yuan offer.

The jailer started sighing, "Why the hell am I not from Chengning? If I were from Chengning, would I be here waiting for a package?"

"The orange tea was shipped very quickly, it arrived within two days."

"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! I am the King of Hurry!"

Orange Tea peeks out: "Is everything to your liking?"

“If it doesn’t suit your taste, I suggest you send some more over so I can see if there’s anything more to my liking,” Zhong Zemo said. “Send more dried longan; if I eat any that are bad, you’ll have to compensate me.”

In the library, Orange Tea covered her mouth, suppressing her laughter.

She typed a lot of words, but then deleted them with a smile.

What a nice weather today.

Chapter 111 Orange Tea, We Are Your Fans!

There was too much material on the 8th floor, and Jiang Heyi was still processing it after finishing lunch.

He glanced at the chat messages that popped up in the group.

Orange Tea recounted her experiences over the past month, and everyone's blood pressure was a bit high.

University dormitory life is like this: if you meet a group of suitable people, when you look back after four years and step into society, you will feel "if only I could go back to that time".

If you only encounter a bunch of expensive people, then four years of university life will not be enjoyable, but torture.

Orange Tea didn't know why she was being isolated. She thought it "might" be because she had done something wrong, but she didn't realize it.

Therefore, she tried to make efforts to repair the relationship.

"Move out," the plain fries bubbled. "It's no use."

"The person who isolated you finally found a prey that would make the whole dorm band together, and you've become the sacrifice."

"Don't think about what you did wrong. You did nothing wrong. Sometimes you don't need a very good reason to hate someone."

"Your self-reflection will only embolden them."

What puzzled Jiang Heyi was that Orange Tea was only bringing this up now.

She had clearly already decided to leave the dormitory, which is why she brought it up in the group chat, hoping everyone would give her a push so she could make a decision.

"Potato, you people of Chengning, please help him out!" The jailer was very anxious, wishing he could come over himself to do something and vent his anger for Orange Tea.

Jiang Heyi sighed helplessly, "What do you want me to do?"

The jailer choked.

Aside from the orange tea, there are three people from Chengning, two office workers, and one aspiring office worker—the standard template for working professionals.

We can't let them block people outside the school gate.

Original Fries asked, "Didn't you tell them about your game scores?"

"No, they only know that I play Stellaris," Orange Tea answered truthfully. "I showed them the equipment when I got to the dorm."

Orange Tea felt that her role during the guild war was not significant compared to others, so she did not flaunt it.

The biggest celebration on the day I was confirmed to advance was simply giving myself a 10 yuan raise on my daily food allowance as a treat.

Have you told anyone that your roommates are isolating you?

"I've talked to two friends I met at the library."

The woman in bed asked again, "Are there many people in the school who are qualified to play games? How many people keep up with the latest gaming news? Do you know anything about that?"

Orange Tea had never paid attention to this kind of thing before, but when her mother asked her about it, she suddenly had the idea to find out.

"Why are you asking this?" she asked curiously.

"To help you get revenge."

Orange Tea is a nice guy, but that doesn't mean everyone else on the boundary between reality and illusion is.

Needless to say, the bed was disgusted by the dream master once. This being, who dared to invade someone else's world even with a huge power imbalance, was already pacing anxiously on the other side of the screen when she heard that her friend was being bullied.

Jiang Heyi roughly guessed what was going to happen in bed and urged her to find out quickly.

Seeing how anxious everyone in the group was, Orange Tea immediately went out.

I didn't know until I asked around, but there are hundreds of people in the dedicated discussion group for the Proof of the Stars at Chengning University, and that's just the ones who like to discuss things in groups.

As for those who know about games and follow trending topics, I randomly stopped more than a dozen people near the food delivery and courier points, and everyone's answer was "of course".

It seems strange not to follow gaming trends and watch the latest video clips.

While learning about orange tea, I also tentatively asked another question.

"Do you know... orange tea?"

"How could I not know? The Tea God of the boundary between reality and illusion."

"I know, she's the Tea Goddess, the goddess of the concept of the boundary between reality and illusion. With her around, we're incredibly lucky; without her, the whole guild is doomed."

"Orange Tea, of course I know it. It's a ruthless person whose luck is so good that they would die if they couldn't reach the boundary between reality and illusion. It's a pity that they are too low-key."

"I really hope that the boundary between reality and virtuality will be brought into the World Championship, so that the identity of the Tea Goddess can be revealed and she can be interviewed to see what kind of person she is in real life and whether she is just as lucky."

Orange Tea rarely reads online comments about herself. She uses the strategy section most often, as well as the "Foreign Server Updates" section which translates foreign server strategy progress and interesting tidbits.

Almost all the interviewees from the same university could recount her remarkable achievements, which made her feel truly flattered and surprised.

When I shared the information I had gathered in the group, everyone, who was somewhat surprised by the blurring of lines between reality and virtuality, was taken aback.

Jiang Heyi had previously discovered the evidence of the stars and used short video clips to reach the middle-aged and elderly market, where it became a source of entertainment for them.

Universities, as the group at the forefront of trends, naturally attract a large number of people.

"That's pretty much what I learned here, so that makes things easier," said the woman in bed. "There are still a few days left. I'll move out after National Day. It would be too easy for my roommates if I left without giving them a little surprise."

The jailer, still oblivious, asked, "What do you want to do?"

"After National Day, the teams that have qualified for the World Championship will probably be asked to give a public interview. At that time, our identities will no longer be able to be hidden, and the release of our real names will be inevitable."

"We'll help the orange tea production run a little ahead of schedule; it won't hurt."

He started talking about his plans in the group chat.
