Chapter 72: How Bootlickers Are Born

After reading the post, Xu Zhi himself felt excited.

What a brilliant post! !

After seeing such an ingenious and sophisticated game setting, even Xu Zhi himself wanted to sing its praises.

He felt his blood boil with excitement and desperately wanted to enter the game to start a glorious new life in another world.

The unaware netizens were naturally even more excited.

"The developers are amazing! This game may be hardcore, but its also super kind to its playerbase. Its too bad though that there are too few beta tester slots, so I can only watch others play and visit the forum to calm my addiction. I want to play this game so much! (?)

"Its unbelievable how this game made us love learning! Starting from evolutionary theory, then moving on to medicine and just when we thought chemistry and physics would be next, it shifts to linguistics! (?)"

"This is too much. If we get to enter the Magic World, well have to learn its native language from the beginning You have to learn an entire new language just to play this game, does it get any more absurd than this? Im struggling with just my foreign language classes! (?)"

"If this keeps up, this game will really become a second life. (?)"

"It turns out that we start on the most epic map of them all, the Creators courtyard located between dimensionsThe Origin of All Thingswhere the Creator evolves life from us spores. Its no wonder he periodically checks on our evolution I cant believe we thought he was a Boss we could beat.

"Wow! When I think of it like that, I really want to make my little ant go over and suck up to the Creator! Im sure only good things would come of this!"

"Sign me up too!"

"+1"

"Hehe, you bootlickers are really shameless, but I'm different, I want to lick his sexy chest hair!"

"Humph! You are blaspheming against the Creator. As a singular existence that spans countless dimensions, transcending time, space, causality, and ethics, how can there be such a setting as chest hair? Are you asking for a beating?"

Some cute girls have begun to speak up and said that they were now fans of this game.

The Supreme Creator was too handsome! Too dignified! He looked super handsome even when eating an apple! Real-life celebrities and characters from animes and movies simply could not compare! They wanted dakimakuras and figurines of him.

"I found out that the legendary Creator likes to sit on a chair in the yard and eat apples!"

"Hahaha, he also likes pears!"

"This gives me hope as a plant. Ill please the Creator by evolving into a delicious fruit-bearing plant. Im sure this will trigger a hidden quest."

"Then Ill evolve delicious vegetables! Aside from being sweet and delicious, theyll have eight times the protein of beef, and can even deliver themselves into his mouth! This adorable little sweetheart wants to be eaten up by her idol! (?)"

..

Ass-kissers.

Xu Zhi was sitting in front of the computer and following the crazy discussion in the forum. He didnt know whether he should laugh or cry at all the dirty jokes.

He hadnt expected this. Although hes done nothing, after Future Skywhale revealed information about the Magic World, this kind of absurd development has happened in the forum.

Because he wanted to eat some delicious fruits before, he had to rack his brains to trick them into evolving plants in his orchard. Who knew something this great would happen now?

Theyll take the initiative to evolve delicious food and deliver themselves to him?

His gourmet plan was about to be realized.

Ill have delicious food to eat, Im really looking forward to my happy farm-life in the future

Xu Zhi continued to observe in secret. Inspiration struck him, and he sneakily posted in the forum, fanning the flames:

"Don't forget, everyone, that the Creators favorite food is the Pallbearer Chicken! "

"Thats right!"

Countless players in the forum suddenly realized what they needed to do.

They hurriedly logged into the game one after another and frantically searched for "Akinas Speedster" who had just entered the sand table after posting.

At this moment, Akinas Speedster was working hard to expand the population of his Pallbearer Chicken species. Thanks to his efforts, their numbers have begun to recover from being eaten in the previous mass extinction.

Huh?

Akinas Speedster watched as a group of enthusiastic players rushed towards him and laughed:

So they finally came. As I expected, theyre all looking at me with such worshipful eyes!

This must be because of my amazing post just nowmy brilliant logic has gained me a lot of fans!

"Quickly, catch him!"

"Guys, we must offer up the Pallbearer Chicken as a sacrifice to trigger the hidden quest!"

"Right, he was the one who instigated us to sin against the Creator before; we must capture him and offer him to the Creator in order to beg for forgiveness!"

An extremely terrifying scene was taking place in the lush woods.

Countless oddly shaped animalswith eight tentacles, nine legs, and over a hundred pairs of eyesrushed at the Pallbearer Chickens and annihilated them in an instant.

Akinas Speedster: ? ? ? ?

WTF! !

What's wrong with all of you!?

The reason that I made a point of logging in after posting, and made sure that I looked good, was so that you would praise me for my brilliance, not beat me up

"Run!!"

He was not stupid and hurriedly fled.

"What did I do!?" Akinas Speedster was crying, tears streaming down his face.

How did things turn out like this?

He ran away frantically and ended up hiding in the woods, gasping for breath. "These damn flunkies! I kindly revealed to all of you this games amazing background setting in my post, yet youre trying to screw me over?"

He failed to notice that, behind him, a bunch of plants were secretly signaling one another with their eyes.

"Look, what have we found here?"

"It's a stray Akinas Speedster! We should catch it! An Akinas Speedster can provide us with enough energy for several days. Theyre rich in protein and are also the Creator's favorite food! But this guy's not easy to deal with, we should slowly approach him from behind. Shhh! Be careful not to make any noises."

Poof!

The trees quietly uprooted their roots, and sneakily approached Akinas Speedster.

Noooooo!

A miserable scream followed.

"Hey! I can't believe we caught it! It's struggling very hard!"

"Be careful! He's actually gone crazy and is biting Oh no, he's biting me, he's biting me! Quick! Gag him!"

"There you go All the poison in the Pallbearer Chicken is in the head, just remove the head and you can eat it; its protein content is 6 times that of beef! Of course, if we're not pressed for time, we can roast it first, it'll be even more delicious that way."

"Well, they have a crunchy texture and taste like chicken, but don't eat too many of them, and don't eat their king Akinas Speedster'. After all, there must be enough of them left to breed; we want to offer up this species as a sacrifice to the great Creator."

The trees trudged away.

Whoosh!

A cool breeze blew by.

Akinas Speedster has been stripped of all his feathers during the struggle and was as naked as a newborn baby. His face was full of confusion.

He was in despair and was beginning to question his life.

In the end, Im nothing more than a spring chicken! ?

My species' only worth is that theyre delicious?

.

At this moment, Xu Zhi was sitting quietly on his chair by the entrance to the yard and eating his apple.

In front of him, a group of bizarre treeswith crowns of lush flowers and leaves, and brightly colored Pallbearer Chickens hanging on their branchesprostrated themselves at his feet, as if they really were a group of primitive tree people worshipping a giant god.

Xu Zhi smiled. He casually grabbed their offering and took the chickens back to start making tonights dinner. "Hmm last time it was soup, let's deep fry them this time."
