T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 112, Section 111: Orange Tea – A Powerful Recruitment Tool

Among the other three guilds that qualified for the World Championship, some members have already revealed their real-life identities.

In the era of internet traffic, those who stand at the forefront of trends have all received tremendous attention.

The orange tea, revered as a tea god that absorbs European energy, has generated a reaction to its self-disclosure of its benefits that was within the realm of reality and fiction.

200 cups of milk tea were first given to alumni players of Orange Tea, and then to players who follow the dynamics of the boundary between virtual and real. Although Orange Tea had no experience in dealing with this kind of thing before, the distribution method was exceptionally appropriate.

After all that was done, the orange tea was taken away.

With such a commotion, it's impossible not to be summoned for a talk by the department's teachers.

After finding out the reason, the teachers in the veterinary college were also somewhat bewildered.

Some of them had a deep understanding of the Proof of the Stars, but most knew nothing about it.

With the help of a teacher who had some prior knowledge, the others in the office understood at least one thing.

Flavored Orange Tea, and the somewhat shy girl in front of them, Su Mian, is one of the contestants in a "club" with nearly a million fans, and is about to represent the country in the world competition.

She is also very popular. In university campuses where young people gather, you can easily find two or three hundred students who know her.

Although this understanding is rife with some peculiar misunderstandings in various places, it serves as sufficient explanation.

An elderly professor who had taught orange tea checked the time: "Well, Su Mian, you should go eat first. We'll call you if we need anything."

There's a lot of information here; they need time to process it.

While Su Mian was eating, some people were looking up information about the Proof of the Stars, some were browsing the homepage of the Boundary Between Reality and Illusion, and others were searching for the name "Flavored Orange Tea" with great interest, trying to figure out why the students were so excited to see her.

After confirming that the World Championship of Proof of Stars was a nationally recognized event, the atmosphere in the office was subtly festive.

The counselor of Su Mian's class was also called to the scene. After some questioning, the department was unsure of what to do and had to report it to higher authorities.

At 8 p.m., Su Mian was called to the office again.

This time, there were a few more people in the office.

A freshman, fighting for his country, with millions of fans.

What a powerful recruitment tool!

An afternoon of preliminary investigation was enough for the school to make a basic response.

“Su Mian, we should try to limit these fan gatherings as much as possible. Too many people can easily lead to unnecessary risks, which is not good for the school or for you. Don’t you agree?”

Realizing the other person was using a consultative tone, Su Mian could only helplessly reply that she hadn't done it on purpose.

"It's alright, just try to keep them in check. They only discovered Su Mian today, and they came because it was something new. Once they all know, they won't bother to watch anymore."

After discussing the sensitive safety issue of the gathering's risks, and seeing Su Mian nodding repeatedly and cooperating fully, the faces of all the teachers and professors relaxed.

Just like the counselor said, he's a simple and honest kid.

"We've looked at your file. You got in through the exam, it wasn't easy."

“I heard from your classmates that you are very frugal with your meals. Are you having any difficulties in your life? You can mention it to them.”

Su Mian shook her head repeatedly: "I just won 20 from the competition, and there will be bonuses from the World Championship in the future, so there are no difficulties for the time being... I'm saving money on food, it's just... I'm not used to it yet."

There are also teachers in the office who have worked their way up from the countryside to where they are today, and their simple statement that they "are not used to it" is enough to move people.

“This is good quality, keep it up,” he praised.

"It's been a month since school started. Have you adjusted to the school environment?"

The elders' warm greetings made Su Mian nod repeatedly: "I'm very comfortable with it, I like it very much."

The person who asked the question suddenly changed the subject.

"Since you've adapted, why did you ask your counselor about changing dorm rooms a week ago?"

Su Mian was taken aback. After recalling the details that Jiang Heyi had told her in the group chat, she no longer hesitated and told him everything about how she had been deliberately isolated and bullied in the dormitory.

The warm smiles on everyone's faces in the office gradually disappeared, turning from sunny to cloudy, then slowly becoming serious, before finally returning to normal.

"It's okay, I've thought about it. If it really doesn't work out, I can rent a place near the school," Su Mian waved her hand repeatedly.

"Renting a place isn't urgent. We need to find out about what you're talking about first."

"Don't talk about being isolated in this dormitory for now, especially online. You understand, right?"

“But I’ve already mentioned it to people in the guild.” Su Mian quoted what Jiang Heyi had taught her. “Besides, some people in the class already knew about them.”

The office fell silent.

After a moment of silence, the department head said, "That's all for today. You can go back now. We'll take care of the dormitory issue. Don't rent a place for the time being."

As Su Mian left the office, she felt her back was soaked with sweat.

This was her first time experiencing a scene like this, where teachers were interrogating her, so she was inevitably nervous. Fortunately, when the scenario predicted by everyone at the boundary between reality and illusion occurred, she answered according to their script.

After sharing what the teachers said in the group chat, Jiang Heyi asserted that she would soon be able to transfer dormitories and live alone.

"How did you know?"

"You can tell just by looking at their answers. If they were just trying to brush it off, they could have easily agreed. But now they're investigating the 'glorious deeds' of those guys in your dorm. It's obvious they want to solve the problem."

"Furthermore, given your special circumstances, if you move to a new dormitory and encounter some awful roommates who isolate you, secretly take photos of you and post them online for clicks, thus causing public outcry, how should they handle that?"

"A player who is about to represent the country in the world competition is being bullied at your school and his performance is declining. Who would want to take that risk?" "You will have to live on campus during your first semester, otherwise they can't use you for recruitment purposes."

Su Mian felt that she was as innocent as a blank sheet of paper in front of Jiang Heyi.

She's an expert even with her bed; she solved a problem she encountered at school with just one photo.

"Do you do this even in bed at school?" she wondered.

"No, my roommates are alright," the blanket said. "Whether you get good roommates is really a matter of luck. Speaking of which... you're a bit unlucky in this regard."

Zhong Zemo also became interested: "Could it be that orange tea brings good luck in the game but bad luck in real life?"

After thinking about it, Orange Tea realized that she didn't think she was that unlucky in real life.

My parents gave me a healthy body. I have rarely been sick since I was a child, and I have never lacked food or clothing.

She was very popular in her class during high school; no one disliked her.

If she had to say, her roommates who came with her when she entered university were probably the most malicious people she had ever experienced in all these years.

But now, with everyone's help, this problem is no longer a problem. Thinking about it this way...

Apart from being a bit poor, I don't seem to have much to complain about in the first 18 years of my life.

I think I'll be able to earn some money in the future, right?

The prize money from the World Championship should be enough to renovate the house back home, and then invite my parents to live in the city, right?
"Hehe." She chuckled to herself, lost in thought.

Since meeting everyone, it seems that there are more and more happy things like this.

There are only two days left until the National Day holiday, and I have already booked my high-speed train ticket to Guangzhou.

"What do you all look like?"

Ah... why is time passing so slowly?

……

……

After giving Orange Tea a training session on sales techniques at noon, Jiang Heyi, representing the boundary between reality and illusion, accepted an interview with the European server's Star of the Stars [Durandal] strategy team.

OrangeSky played a crucial role in this, as they, as part of the strategy team, established connections with many servers and shared their experiences.

Durantal was one of the first to share guides, account videos, and activity logs on the European server regarding the boundary between reality and illusion.

Because it is not easy to connect with the boundary between the virtual and the real, they only made this interview possible after asking Orange Sky.

Due to the time difference, many of them were in the game. This member of the strategy team seemed to be the one in the guild responsible for being online during daylight hours, which is why they were able to have a conversation.

Her ID is Noneya. If we had to translate it, Jiang Heyi thought "No" might be the most appropriate translation.
In short, he imagined "Nong Ya" throughout the entire interview on the channel.

Nong Ya first expressed her gratitude for the generosity of the Virtual Reality Boundary, as the guild with the most advanced progress in the world is always willing to share its strategy tips.

Nong Ya spoke sincerely and earnestly.

As the translator of "[Thirty-Year-Old Job Change to Great Mage]" from the Orange Sky Strategy Team, I translated it without any psychological pressure.

Only Jiang Heyi... truly felt the enthusiasm of this strategy team.

Is it necessary to praise him for two minutes?
The interviews mainly focused on the daily dungeon-crawling habits and personal setups of the players on the boundary between the virtual and real worlds.

Copying expert configurations is something many gamers do.

Regardless of whether you can execute the same maneuvers, copying them means you have a good understanding of the game!
Finally, Nongya requested a permission to repost from the Virtual Reality Boundary—although the Virtual Reality Boundary never explicitly prohibited reposting, it ultimately did not receive approval. Therefore, the Durandal strategy team believed that confirming the Virtual Reality Boundary's stance was crucial.

With such impeccable manners, Jiang Heyi naturally did not refuse.

"There's one more thing I'd like to ask President Cyber ​​Potato for help with."

"Oh, about strategy guides?"

Nong Ya repeatedly made the sound "no" in the voice message.

"I want an autograph."

Jiang Heyi can speak English, he just doesn't speak it fluently.

"Signature? On what? Are there any requirements?"

"clothing."

"Uh, men's clothing?"

"No, no, no, you've misunderstood..." Nong Ya quickly explained.

Before the translation could even be uttered, "[Thirty-year-old who became a great mage]" couldn't help but burst into laughter, making Nong Ya feel embarrassed and speak even softer.

"I don't want Potato Sister's autograph... I'm a fan of Original Flavor Fries. Could you please ask Potato Sister for my autograph?"

"?" Jiang Heyi was full of questions.

"Then why didn't you explain and let the fries be interviewed?"

“From what I understand, Sister French Fries is very aloof and might reject me, but if you ask Brother Potato, it’ll definitely work out.” Nong Ya laughed, “Please, please!”

The previous discussion about the boundary between reality and illusion, including mentioning oneself for two minutes, also carries this implication.

　There's more later, Zhang said, "Modo Modo."
