Chapter 956: Chapter 523 Appreciating Oneself_2 Chapter 956: Chapter 523 Appreciating Oneself_2 Wu Wei immediately wiped away his tears and said with confusion, “Now? Are they joking?”

“I also thought they were joking, but they seem serious. They’ve already bribed many Cultivators, planning to take you all out after the spacecraft officially launches, then fly away and monopolize all the nuclear bombs.”

“Aren’t they afraid of the conditions I set earlier?”

“They’ve resigned from their positions as guild leaders but kept their power, so they feel there’s no problem.”

Knowing this, Wu Wei was speechless.

Just for the sake of benefits in the game, these guys really went out of their way, even if it meant bearing a bad reputation to keep the benefits in their hands.

He had done most of the work, while these guild leaders did do some, their portion didn’t exceed thirty percent.

If they were willing to negotiate with him, he wouldn’t mind giving up a bit more benefit, but they chose the most irrational plan.

Between “yes” or “no,” they really had to go with “or.”

Sighing, Wu Wei opened his panel and laughed bitterly at his Karma points.

Really, people need to have their own trump cards.

In the span of a month, Wu Wei’s Karma points had surged, now even ten times more than before making wishes.

He hadn’t imagined that he, a mere commander, could accumulate so much Karma in such a short time, significantly more than other players could earn in a month in other games.

But on second thought, it made sense.

Just by not causing trouble and being steady, he was already stronger than most guild leaders.

Moreover, he was able to push forward a massive project, which wouldn’t be an exaggeration to describe as “impressively mighty.”

For this enormous exploration project, he had visited nearly every factory and met every key person.

Knowing that his own strength and reputation were insufficient, he used the simplest method to complete each critical project and through repeated optimizations, combined these projects.

Although he wasn’t an expert in every single project, he ensured familiarity with each process. He had watched the warships being assembled, every corner bearing his mark.

With Chen Rang’s promotion, virtually every player involved in the grand project knew of Wu Wei’s existence. The massive structure built from nothing was his best achievement, earning him tremendous prestige among the players.

This was his contribution, and of course, the Karma points it translated to were a substantial figure, enough for him to make more than a dozen wishes.

Gong Gong came over and gasped at the sight of Wu Wei’s Karma points.

Although she didn’t consume Karma like Mukuai, all the gods of the Heavenly Tao network adored it.

And Karma was a system created by the Great Heavenly Lord; having a lot of it could earn her extra points with the Great Heavenly Lord.

So, swallowing hard, she pointed at the string of numbers and said, “Wu Wei, share some Karma with me, I guarantee to help you settle all these issues.”

“I don’t need it.”

“Don’t be polite with me, who are we kidding!” Gong Gong said ingratiatingly, “At worst, I’ll tweak the data for you, increase your chances of winning a bit. Hey, the next prize is no joke, the factory is giving out AR glasses, and even drones, really fun stuff.”

“…Gong Gong…”

“Don’t worry, I’ve turned off the stream.”

“I didn’t though! I only turned on voice, but they can still hear!”

Gong Gong helplessly opened the Game Inn and found herself blitzed yet again.

On social media, her hot search ranking was rising, with calls for “Gong Gong to get out of the livestreaming world” being incessant. If she hadn’t come from a schemer’s background, these comments would’ve broken her long ago.

As a host with rich experience in online roastings, she just nonchalantly started the stream and activated the paid comment system.

Want to curse me? Pay up first.

Pay enough, and I’ll even help embellish it and pin it to ensure your satisfaction.

Effortlessly handling this minor issue, Gong Gong asked, “Okay then, you must have your own plans, so I’ll leave you to it. The fleet can set out tomorrow, good luck with your success.”

“Thank you, Gong Gong.”

“No worries, my pleasure.”

Watching Gong Gong leave, Wu Wei leaned back in his chair.

The long haul of work was finally coming to an end, and he had gained more than he had expected.

He always thought he was just an ordinary office worker, earning a modest salary that was enough to fill his stomach, then marrying someone suitable and living out a dull life.

But in “Stellar Nebula,” he discovered another side of himself.

He found he was quite good at interacting with others. His moderate and peaceful disposition had a good market here, and the special wish-making mechanism allowed him to ignore deceitful tactics and focus purely on the tasks.

Reality might fail him, but the game wouldn’t.

Leaning back, Wu Wei reminisced about the past, the tiredness in his heart still there, but more so a sense of indescribable satisfaction.

Although their fleet hadn’t taken to the skies yet, he had already envisioned the success. A rising confidence told him they were destined to succeed, and the players were on to the next phase.

Under my lead.

The thought of playing such an important role filled Wu Wei with emotion. Feelings he had never experienced in real life swirled within him, making him realize he had actually accomplished a remarkable feat, worthy of boasting to his other half.

But which girl would appreciate this kind of feat?

While Wu Wei pondered, the door to his office burst open, and Hakurei Silver Dream charged in excitedly.

She hopped onto the desk and, grabbing Wu Wei’s tie, said with excitement, “Wu Wei, I heard from Gong Gong, we can set off tomorrow, right?”

Looking at Hakurei Silver Dream, who was even more excited than himself, Wu Wei subconsciously nodded.

“Freaking awesome, damn! I just want to say, freaking awesome, damn! Wu Wei, you’ve got to show some expression! Do you know how freaking awesome this is! We’re about to start a new phase, we’re going to grab nuclear bombs! When this event is recounted in the future, you and I will be the primary witnesses! What should I say when I’m interviewed by Chen Rang? Should I go with ‘First Under Heaven of the East,’ or ‘Please boost Keqing a bit’?”

“Do as you please.”

“Then I’ll go think about it! And get a few skins, maybe some special effects. No, there’s no time to lose, I’m off.”

Hakurei Silver Dream came in a blaze and left in one just as quickly. At the door, she turned her head and said to Wu Wei, who was still in a daze, “I’ll say it again, you’re really damn impressive!”

Watching Hakurei Silver Dream rush off, Wu Wei realized that those who appreciated him were actually so close by.
