Chapter 1389: 458. Straight to the heart

Two months later.

Inside the storage warehouse of the Black Hole Magic Academy.

The Snow-winged Cat shuttled gracefully between the glass jars filled with Angel Crystals, trailing brilliant light.

It was helping Noland Lee check the inventory of Angel Crystals in the warehouse.

After half an hour had passed, the Snow-winged Cat flew onto Noland’s shoulder, affectionately rubbing against his cheek and meowing out a string of numbers.

Noland rubbed the kitty’s chin with his fingers and couldn’t help but exclaim:

“The players have really been giving it their all. Terrifying, terrifying. I originally thought it would take a full three months to gather enough Angel Crystals. I didn’t expect that just 65 days would suffice to meet the requirements for rescuing the Assassin Angel’s true form.”

Looking back at the past couple of months, the state of the players could only be described as “obsessed.”

The grunt workers, casual players, and old toy players, all were engrossed in the thrill of trading Angel Crystals for money.

Professional players each played their roles, either as middlemen hyping up Angel Crystals, or leading the Plundering Team to raid for Angel Crystals.

Some even established a large guild specifically targeting the Angel Enterprise Alliance, named “Angel’s Guillotine.”

All the players could find their place in the dispute between the Academy and the Alliance, with none of them willing to avoid money and fall into laziness, hiding behind others to slack off.

So, the warehouse had so many Angel Crystals that it was bursting, and Noland had to move up the plan to rescue the Assassin Angel.

“Let’s set the Task for the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow is the players’ Friday. I’m sure that releasing a campaign Task on a Friday night will maximize the players’ enthusiasm. Chances are, the Assassin Angel might break free from its seal that very night.”

Noland thought to himself and headed back to the Dean’s office, expertly contacting Cucumber Slice, who was a spy deep within the Alliance.

“You’ve been doing well in the Alliance lately, haven’t you?” Noland asked in his mind.

The voice of Cucumber Slice rang out, cheerfully responding:

“Yes, boss. Thanks to your blessing, I’m about to become an official pilot for the Artificial Angels.”

At that moment, Cucumber Slice was enjoying a nutritious meal in the dining hall of the space station.

The dining hall featured a massive grid-like floor-to-ceiling window, with the universe outside backlit in pale blue, tranquil and alluring.

Anticipating his life in the past two months, Cucumber Slice couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up to GM boss.

What was promised was delivered, every promise kept.

Outside the game, Cucumber Slice used the exclusive game insight provided by GM boss to release tutorial videos related to the Angel Enterprise Alliance, significantly boosting the reputation of their studio.

To put it simply, just placing ads for certain products in their videos now could bring in over a million in net earnings.

All thanks to GM Boss.

Without the intelligence provided by GM, Cucumber Slice reckoned it would have taken several times the effort to reach today’s achievements.
