Chapter 269: Chapter 177: Exciting Collaboration (Part 1)_1

As time passed, a new gameplay emerged, and players began to embrace the changes in the new version and adapted to it.

For Wang Say Games, this period could be described as plain sailing and full of confidence.

The popularity of Who is the Champion greatly boosted his fame, especially since he had an honest and upright face on television that seemed reliable, but his actions were efficient and decisive. His high-class expressions paired with low-class deeds created a fascinating contrast, earning him a massive surge in popularity.

Now, simply playing games without having to rack his brain for ideas, his live streaming room was always filled with people, and gifts poured in endlessly every day, making him feel like he had reached the pinnacle of his life.

Thank you, Mr. Fang, thank you Who is the Champion, thank you to myself.

He was highly popular in reality, and things were going smoothly in the game too.

Just now, he finally acquired his first Destruction Star – Light Version in Space Navigator.

The actual Star of Destruction was out of reach for the time being, as it consumed too many resources. The only ten available were on Songta Planet, where they were strategic weapons.

The Light Version, however, was a downscaled Destruction Star, which perhaps only had seventy percent of the original’s capabilities. But even so, it could look down on all others in the game—it was among the most advanced ships currently available. Even if one traveled to the second ring, the civilizations there would have to stand up and toast, saying, “Wang, thank you for your hard work.”

Highway robbers on the way? No need to bother with them. If encountered, just charge straight at them; it’s not certain who would be robbing whom.

In the live stream, Wang deployed a small reconnaissance ship, turned off the force field, and used the ship’s camera feature to continuously take photos of his new ship, which brought numerous gasps of admiration and a flood of gifts.

Seeing these gifts, Wang felt he had indeed made a name for himself and that it was time to find an opportunity to propose to Zhao.

Just as he was blissfully envisioning his future, his vision suddenly shook, as if something had fiercely struck his ship, causing it to tremble violently.

At that moment, Wang’s heart sank.

My brand new ship!

A dazzling red light appeared, and a flood of data swarmed before his eyes. The voice of the assistant robot Delta rang out, informing him of what had just happened.

“Alert, the flagship has been struck by an unknown object, the power furnace pierced, cargo hold pierced, Force Shield Generator pierced… Estimated repair time is seven hours…”

Hearing the alert, Wang felt as if his heart was bleeding.

The original Star of Destruction could be restored, as long as the core wasn’t damaged, the other parts could regenerate quickly.

But not the Light Version!

Particularly the cargo hold, where he’d stored a large collection of art pieces he’d hoarded, ready to transport to the second ring to sell for a good price, a single piercing could lead to untold losses.

Donning his power armor and picking up his weapon, Wang Say Games immediately went to the damaged area following Delta’s instructions, only to almost cry at the sight of the devastated cargo hold.

The object that had attacked the ship must have been something extraordinarily sturdy. It had come at high speed, taking advantage of the gap when his force field was turned off for the photo shoot, and landed a critical hit on him.

This was definitely a premeditated attack, and the attacker was surely envious of his new ship, launching a sneak attack while he was too preoccupied with taking photos to boast.

This attack was just the beginning; the real terror was yet to come!

After instructing Delta to reinforce the defenses, Wang began to assess the damage.

His luck had been good since entering the game, although he hadn’t managed to find the Reality Interferer. However, those he knew had generally built their power bases with the help of Reality Interferers and then relied on them to start making money.

Using these connections, he constantly gained benefits and finally earned a ship—only to have an accident before it even warmed up, with many items lost from the cargo hold.

The ship’s cabin was beginning its self-repair, and firefighting robots were at work. Many art pieces were burnt up, and the loss was incalculable.

After estimating his losses, Wang realized that he had lost around a hundred thousand in faith—his efforts from the past two days were in vain.

Silently watching the cabin still self-repairing, Wang knew that even after it was fixed, there would always be permanent marks left behind.

This grudge, he must avenge!

There’s one thing about me, Wang—I may not be petty in many ways, but I sure am when it comes to grievances!

Once the force field generator had repaired itself, Wang first reactivated the force field, then began frantically searching for the audacious object that dared to attack him, and at last, he found it far away.

It looked like a humanoid statue, mostly human in shape but retaining some wolf characteristics.

The entire statue appeared lifelike, with clear muscle lines on the body and a ferocious and painful expression on the face, resembling a petrified human.

After staring at the statue for a while, Wang felt there was something extraordinary about it.

Even without the force field defense, his ship would only cause ordinary meteors to shatter upon impact with the hull; they couldn’t penetrate his ship and remain intact.

Besides, the local inhabitants of this world were not very creative; such a half-human, half-wolf statue was improbable.

Could it be an Easter egg?

With this thought, the frustration from the ship’s damage disappeared, knowing he could now live stream the event.

The force field captured the distant statue and dragged it towards his position.
