Glorious God Throne

Chapter 11



In this rapidly developing city, which was expected to become the second largest metropolis in Yaoguo Country apart from the capital, the existence of the old city symbolized the last history of Yuanyang City.

It was like the elderly who lived here, half-buried in the earth, who would sooner or later be abandoned by the new era.

And this car accident, on the contrary, made this place, which was so quiet that it was almost forgotten, noisy for the first time.

In the following days, the noise continued.

Relatives, friends, students of the Gu family…..all kinds of acquaintances rushed over when they heard the news, causing Bai Yi’s mind to be filled with even more chaotic and noisy voices.

Fortunately, such noise was only temporary. Bai Yi simply stayed at home, entering dreams during the day to explore the Nightmare Game.

It was still that familiar, suffocating deep sea, as thick as ink, as dark as night, with fragments of stars scattered in the ocean surrounding him.

Until he gently touched one of them. Then, he woke up in a nightmare.

It seemed that even after loading the Nightmare Game, Bai Yi still couldn’t actively choose which nightmare fragment to enter. Just like before, he would wake up randomly in any dream, on any person.

The only difference was that in the past, he was aimless in his dreams. He could only do anything based on his own guesses until he stumbled upon the solution.

As time went on, Bai Yi realized that the key to ending the nightmare cycle lay in the role he entered. Only by following the wishes deep in the character’s heart, fulfilling the character’s desires, and turning the nightmare into a beautiful dream, would the dream completely leave him and stop entangling him repeatedly.

And after the Nightmare Game system was activated, Bai Yi didn’t need to rack his brains to guess. The moment he woke up in the nightmare fragment, the game system revealed the conditions for clearing the game—

[You are the owner of a flower shop.]

[This flower shop is ordinary, business is okay, it is one of the many flower shops in the city, not noticeable.]

[Relying on the income of the flower shop, you barely make ends meet. You live a life that is not enough for the upper class, but more than enough for the lower class.]

[–But you were not satisfied with this.]

[Running a flower shop was your dream. Every flower was planted, cared for, and sent out by your own hands. You hoped they could bring happiness to every customer, and you hoped that the flowers you planted yourself would be loved and praised by everyone.]

[Task: Collect sincere praise from a thousand customers.]

The system’s narration ended, and the familiar player panel appeared.

Bai Yi woke up on a quiet lounge chair. The warm sunlight poured in from the transparent glass door, falling on him. The air was filled with a faint floral scent, which made him feel sleepy again.

“This task is… unexpected.”

If it had been before the Nightmare Game started, he would never have guessed that the final clearance condition would be like this, no matter what.

In the end, he would inevitably spend a lot of time in the dream, being entangled by such a dream for half a month.

“So, the system is not completely useless.”

He stood up from the lounge chair, stretched lazily, and his gaze swept over the pink, white, yellow, purple…..all kinds of flowers in the shop that he couldn’t name and could only roughly distinguish by color, showing a troubled expression.

“I’m good at making flower cakes, but growing flowers is not within my skills. If the role this time is a pastry chef, and I need to use the flower cakes I make to win the praise of a thousand customers, I can clear it in one go!”

At this moment, Bai Yi was inexplicably confident, very inflated.

Regardless of whether his confidence was reasonable or not, this task obviously did not meet his assumption.

With a regretful sigh, Bai Yi pushed open the slightly ajar door of the flower shop, smiled at the ordinary face on the transparent glass door, and walked towards the nearest shop next door.

To make the flowers in the shop a token of happiness, to harvest sincere praise from customers…then first, you need to understand who are potential customers, find out who can be converted into customers, and explore their inner needs.

“Set a small goal first, take over this street!”

………..

For several days in a row, Bai Yi was immersed in the “friend interaction game”. Although he was not a person who was keen on making friends, as long as he wanted to, he could become the most understanding “friend” of anyone in the shortest time.

After the Nightmare Game system went online, the biggest convenience it brought him was that he could choose to enter and exit the Nightmare Game at any time, in other words, save and load.

This made it more convenient for him to brush up on instances.

[You used Bewitch lv3, gained friendly unit +1]

[You used Bewitch lv3, NPC friendliness +10]

[You used Bewitch lv3, neighborhood reputation +50]

[You gained a large amount of experience, Bewitch skill has been upgraded to the limit of life skills, cannot be further upgraded.]

–If this were a traditional single-player game, then by now, Bai Yi’s game panel would probably have been flooded with such information.

After Bai Yi expanded his circle of friends to the entire street in the game, along with these new friends’ relatives and friends, and their relatives and friends, the seemingly unreachable task of gathering a thousand praises was far exceeded.

Perhaps, this was the talent of a pyramid scheme leader?

Resolving the knots between people, allowing lovers who had a crush on each other to finally become a couple, letting a mother and son with misunderstandings resolve their differences, letting an old man on his sickbed reunite with his brother after many years of separation, leaving no regrets…..The originally healing-style game, under Bai Yi’s operation, turned into a strange style of rapidly developing downlines.

——The lovers who finally became a couple turned into the shop owner’s loyal fans, helping out in the shop daily, and crazily recommending the #gentle and understanding shop owner# and his #flowers that convey the feelings between lovers, the symbol of happiness# to their friends;

——The old mother who reconciled with her son seemed to have been bewitched, praising the magical flower shop owner to everyone she met, as if he had some magic that could make the old and frail rejuvenate, so she brought a group of elderly people to buy flowers, and some even wanted to introduce their daughters and nieces to the still-single shop owner;

——The old man who reunited with his brother left without regrets, and on his deathbed, he didn’t forget to recommend to his hospital friends, as if the shop owner had become the messenger sent by the god in his heart, the omnipotent incarnation that can solve everyone’s regrets…

In this way, when submitting the save to clear the game, Bai Yi had already opened three branches with the help of customers, and if he continued to develop, he was likely to become the industry leader.

[Successfully cleared the Nightmare Fragment [Flowers and Wishes]]

[Dungeon Level: ☆]

[Clearance Evaluation: S]

[Points Earned: 10]

[Unlocked Achievement: [What is your wish?]]

[Explanation: You understand the human heart and develop downlines smoothly. Being able to turn running a flower shop into something like preaching is also a unique talent. If you are willing, you can establish a cult in minutes and have countless fanatical followers cheer for you.]

[You fool the world, but also redeem the world.]

[You are a god that exists in people’s hearts.]

[Start special reward extraction.]

[You get a special drop: Nightmare Crystal (White)×1.]

[You get a new one-star character card [Flower Speaker], with a built-in scene template [Ordinary Flower Shop]. Due to the player’s actions in the Nightmare Fragment dungeon, should it be integrated into the achievement and automatically generate characteristics?]

[Hint: This character is a one-star ordinary character card, integrating achievements will have a 90% chance of generating extraordinary characteristics.]

Awakening from the Nightmare Game, Bai Yi looked at the lines of text hanging in front of him, somewhat surprised.

In the past few days of exploring the Nightmare Game, he had already cleared many nightmare fragments that were not difficult at all, all of which were very daily tasks.

In the end, he only obtained one Nightmare Crystal (White) and 10 points.

He had thought that this task of running a flower shop would be no exception.

Unexpectedly, not only was the reward equivalent to the sum of those from previous nightmare fragments, but he also obtained another character card. The most surprising thing was the so-called achievements and extraordinary characteristics.

…As for whether to integrate achievements and automatically generate characteristics?

Was this question even worth considering?

……..

“Is this question even worth considering? The facts have now proven that Han Shan did not lie that day, at least, what he said was not entirely false. We certainly need to investigate…”

“Just based on a few drops of suspicious blood of unknown origin, without any other evidence, and without any missing persons report…This is a bit too far-fetched.”

“But these few drops of human blood, which cannot find any matching information in the national DNA database, are enough to prove that he indeed encountered something unusual that night. My intuition tells me that there is something going on here, it’s not simple.”

In the police station, Li Fufeng rarely argued with his colleagues.

When he initially agreed to help Han Shan test the blood, he was just out of goodwill, hoping to reassure him after the results came out.

But even he didn’t expect that he would actually find a stranger’s blood on the other person’s clothes.

This made the situation become strange.

Assuming that Han Shan did encounter a murder case that night, the murderer could certainly escape, the body could be destroyed, but an inn, such a conspicuous building, couldn’t disappear overnight, could it?

But if all this was just his illusion, how could he explain these few drops of human blood of unknown origin?

Li Fufeng always felt that there was something strange about this, and wanted to persuade his colleagues to investigate together, but the others didn’t take this seriously, thinking that he was thinking too much.

Just at this moment, several police officers who had gone out to investigate returned. Liu Ningshuang ran in front, full of energy, clapped her hands, and attracted everyone’s attention. “Everyone, it’s time to work, the culprit of that car accident has been found!”
