T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World

"How did the talks go?"

“She was reluctant, but she acknowledged one thing,” Candlelight said. “A direct confrontation, killing my consciousness, is something I can’t do.”

The two had clearly fought fiercely.

The ease with which the candlelight flickered also indicated that she was the one with a slight advantage.

"But I can't deal with her presence either."

Chen Shaoyu swallowed.

"Then, what to do?"

"We have reached a temporary agreement."

"protocol?"

The candlelight said, "Let games be games, and reality be reality."

"Solve problems through games."

It should be the next day after it's sent.

Today is my birthday, so I'm not sure if there will be an extra chapter. I might relax and just manage to squeeze in a chapter. Anyway, thank you all for your continued support and updates.

In short, let's just say "more and more" because reality has been really exhausting lately.

Chapter 300: Guild Member Bonus

"Using games to solve problems," Chen Shaoyu carefully extracted the key information, then exclaimed in surprise, "It can't be..."

The candlelight nodded, yet it also shook its head.

"It's not the game type used in the qualifying stage."

She stood up, carrying the vinegar bottle, took another sip, and inhaled the aroma of the vinegar before continuing.

"She and I each control a server in a different world, competing for the title of winner on a brand new game map."

"Did you choose us because of the boundary between the virtual and the real?"

The candlelight nodded.

"Serial number ② not only wants my will, but also wants to obtain the 'possibility' of the boundary between the real and the virtual."

She paused, then turned to look at the colorful street scene through the floor-to-ceiling window.

"I will speak with them about this in person."

"It's time for them to realize the miracles they've unintentionally achieved in the game."

Chen Shaoyu found it unbelievable.

He stuffed two mouthfuls of cold fried rice into his mouth and mumbled something.

"Can we really trust her? Would she cheat her own people just to win?"

The candle flickered, shook the vinegar bottle, and found that there was hardly any left. Somewhat disappointed, it returned to the table.

"She wouldn't dare go too far."

"What number ② seeks is to replace me and possess complete consciousness."

"Whether it is me or her, we are both messengers of the Sovereign."

"Although memories have become hollow, some ironclad rules are still imprinted deep in our consciousness."

The candlelight smiled and casually projected Chen Lechao's room onto the screen.

Chen Shaoyu stopped chewing.

"Still running? Can't you play if you don't open it?"

Chen Lechao is currently playing a new type of open-world sandbox multiplayer online game.

Many StarCraft players will play a game with their friends before going to bed.

Less than three days after the game's release, Chen Lechao had already acquired a new cheat, allowing him to amass a large amount of resources and items within the game, use his "clairvoyance" ability to locate enemies, and hunt down those who had nothing. He was truly a cancer in the public housing system.

He laughed loudly as he killed.

They squatted down next to the corpses of abused players and taunted them.

Using the ID "Cyber ​​Potato" to draw hatred towards the boundary between the virtual and real worlds, he would type out messages to anyone he met, inciting conflict.

After being summoned to court and with no possibility of mediation, Chen Lechao became furious and writhed wildly like a maggot, desperately trying to obstruct the boundary between reality and illusion, morbidly venting his inner unease and fear.

After the candlelight returned, a second investigation was conducted on all the people Chen Shaoyu had dealt with.

She didn't feel much about hype-driven individuals like Dragon Knight, but after examining Chen Lechao and Whale in a Basin, she felt a deep disgust.

"My Lord has said that cheating in games is the most despicable act."

Chen Shaoyu felt there were many things even more despicable than this, but when he thought about the Lord of Candlelight's love for games... no problem, it was the most despicable.

I'm very curious about what would happen if I cheated while playing a game with that sovereign.

“Cheaters, expelled,” Candlelight continued. “This is the voice that was imprinted on us at birth.”

"Unless number ② wants to be removed from the list by the ruler, she would never dare to tarnish the rules of the Proof of the Stars and the purity of the game."

The candle snapped its fingers, and on the other side of the light screen, Chen Lechao's computer screen suddenly went dark.

He was stunned for a while after cheating, then stood up to check the screen, glanced at the computer case, and looked completely bewildered.

Meanwhile, Chen Lechao's close-up video, showcasing his incredible skills, was being uploaded in the background and passed AI review at an astonishing speed, entering the traffic pool allocated to him by Candlelight.

Soon, he will become a famous live streamer in a strange way.

Another snap of fingers.

Chen Lechao's computer case crackled and popped, smoke billowed from the graphics card and memory slots, and amidst sparks and lightning, the only light source in the room went out.

Two or three seconds later, a flash of light flickered, and Chen Lechao's scream and the "crack" of the computer breaking down sounded like heavenly music, making every pore of Chen Shaoyu feel a sense of comfort.

Compared to the candlelight, his methods of punishing Chen Lechao were much gentler.

Candlelight guessed what Chen Shaoyu wanted to say and answered accordingly.

"If the ruler knew, he would approve of what I did."

Chen Shaoyu gave a thumbs up.

An empty vinegar bottle hung on his thumb.

"I bought too much this time, it's not enough to eat."

"Do the puppets all like to drink vinegar?" Chen Shaoyu exclaimed in amazement. "You're much more impressive than my friend from the coal city in college. You drink vinegar like a beverage."

Candlelight tilted its head: "Is this what you call liking it? I only ate a little bit."

“We go through a bottle of vinegar every two days, one of us must have a problem with our understanding of ‘a little bit’.”

"If the jailer sees you dipping everything in vinegar, he'll definitely nag you for ages."

The candlelight smiled gently.

"When I meet them in person, shall I demonstrate how to eat rice noodle rolls with vinegar and drink double-skin milk with vinegar?"

The candlelight, capable of quickly capturing online information, seemed to know how to anger the jailer.

However, the jailer didn't have time to mourn for the rice noodle rolls and double-skin milk that might suffer a terrible fate.

He was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden for the first time, staring wide-eyed at the edge of the mining area, which had changed drastically in just one day since he went offline.

The explosion caused by the forging error of Elaevi sent shockwaves sweeping around, leaving white marks from stones scraping against the walls and shocking crater-like pits on the ground.

The clusters of elemental essence at the explosion's epicenter were particularly striking.

The Slime King was amazed.

Kesha was amazed when he saw it.

The mint was eager to try—this stuff, when crushed, can be used in medicine and for forging; it's an excellent ingredient.

Explosion! Great!

She was probably the only one who thought the explosion was good; this explosion brought high-purity elemental essence of red grade to the boundary between the real and the virtual.

The two elemental masters, King Slime and Ksha, were mining by hand. They chipped off a piece, patiently ground it into powder, and rubbed it between their fingers.

The fingertips crackled, and chaotic elemental reactions rippled outwards.

They both took a deep breath at the same time, and a beam of light entered their bodies.

The taste is pure, and the product is authentic...

The evaluation is that it's just a little short of achieving a higher quality gold.

"My apologies, I didn't know you, Eleravia, were not only a blacksmith but also a deadly elementalist. With just a few moves, you have reached a level that ordinary elemental mages can never achieve in their entire lives."

"Create elemental mist out of thin air, use the elemental mist to generate essence, and fleece the world's consciousness."

Jiang Heyi clasped his hands in admiration.

Elaevi didn't understand the joke Jiang Heyi was making. She was like a delinquent, casually spreading her legs and squatting next to the crater of the exploding meteorite, her thick tail drooping and motionless.

She felt no joy whatsoever at the new wonders and materials she had created at the boundary between reality and illusion.

"The Origin Element Core is truly a dreamlike artifact... Even the residual energy released in that instant is so spectacular."

Seeing everyone watching out of the corner of her eye, Eleravia had nowhere to hide. She touched the ground with her tail to support herself as she stood up.

She approached Jiang Heyi with feigned nonchalance.

"As agreed, Grand Craftsman Eleravie will become our companion at the boundary between the virtual and the real worlds and officially settle in."

Aleira's lips were trembling.

I can't bring myself to change my mind and break the contract!

Despite being a young dragon who grew up alone, Arerave didn't go astray; she maintained her own composure and pride.

She found an excuse.

“Well, that’s not a problem. But one of the Origin Element Cores has already exploded. I don’t dare to easily inlay it into the finished Origin Set before I can successfully forge another one. That would be irresponsible of you.”

Seeing that everyone seemed to be deep in thought, Elena struck while the iron was hot.

“Look, I am a master craftsman. I can only bring out my full value when I have materials. Ordinary little things are not worth my time.”

"How about this... once you find the next Origin Element Core, I'll stay permanently?"

Elaine was very guilty, and her voice grew softer and softer.

The two-meter-tall dragon-like humanoid figure spoke with less imposing presence than the prison guard who shared lewd quotes.

"So, you mean if we have a second Origin Element Core, you'll definitely stay and stop making excuses?"

Aileravi blushed: "What excuse is there?"

Jiang Heyi and the fries exchanged a glance.

"Okay, we agree, but this time you have to sign a written agreement."

"If you keep making excuses and being coy, I'll have Kesha take the contents of the contract to the Fallen Star Sea and let the ancient siren clan sing it all."

Ailera remained solemn.

If a race as ancient as the dragons were to know this, wouldn't that be tantamount to passing it down through generations until the world is destroyed and the race becomes extinct?

While she was hesitating, Kesha had already brought up the agreement with a smile and skillfully guided Eleravie to press her big red handprint on it.

Elaeva was still in a daze when the process was over.

Jiang Heyi took the contract and glanced at it with satisfaction.

"Well, everyone at the boundary between the real and the virtual, welcome to our Grand Craftsman's permanent guild!"

After saying that, while Elena was still confused, he casually took out an Origin Element Core that had been transformed using [Divine Forging Universal Material].

"It's okay, take your time practicing. We'll find the materials for you outside."

Ailera's longan eye shrank to a tiny dot as she stared intently at the small sphere brimming with surging elemental power, her mind filled with questions.

"This...this is..."
