I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 584 A New Storm (36)

With high hopes in mind, Chen Yu sent the original painting to Lin Jiashu, who was receiving treatment at Tianyuan First People's Hospital.

After seeing the original image, Lin Jiashu was so surprised that he stood up from his chair.

He apologized to the doctor who was treating him, then focused intently on admiring the original artwork of the masked man, suddenly feeling a surge of fervor.

The original artwork of the Foundation Establishment Master already carries the charm of Taoism, the original artwork of the Star Lord incarnation can even be used as a magic weapon, and the portrait of the Water Virtue Star Lord has the effect of calming the mind and spirit and bringing peace and stability to the home.

Just seeing this painting gave Lin Jiashu an urge to worship the Water Deity.

The higher the art rating, the more you can feel Lian Qu's dedication and skill in this original painting. All sorts of complex emotions come rushing in, like a symphony that is intoxicating.

"Dad, what are you looking at?"

"I want to see too."

Lin Xing and Lin Yun ran over, stared at the original painting for a long time, and then asked in confusion:

"He looks a bit like Brother Chen Yu."

"But he's not as handsome as me."

"Indeed, he's more handsome in person."

"But I feel like he has a story to tell."

"Indeed, the stories told through the expressions are too compelling."

After clapping his hands, Lin Jiashu said to his two daughters, "You two have a great sense of perception, so how about we work together to make some music related to this character?"

"want!"

"It feels like it could be a bit wicked."

"And then be more just."

"One must be patient and patient."

"There must be a tragic element."

"Finally, let's have a theme of sacrifice, and then there's a 'bang' as it explodes into the sky."

Looking at his two daughters with satisfaction, Lin Jiashu knew that his daughters had no problem with their feelings.

Looking at the city in the distance, Lin Jiashu clenched his fist.

Don't worry, Mr. Chen!
I will definitely make music that satisfies you!

A day later, the new theme song was delivered to Chen Yu. Each piece of music had extraordinary power, making Chen Yu feel once again that he had struck gold.

We need to think of a way to give him a raise.

If it weren't for the fact that they were under sixteen and therefore couldn't work, Chen Yu would have hired Lin Xing and Lin Yuan.

Thinking about this, he suddenly remembered a question and contacted Yan Ye to ask: "Yan Ye, do we have any subsidies for children?"

Yan Ye: [What is that?]

Chen Yu: [It's about subsidies for employees' children. You see, what if both parents are working, and the child's childhood is lacking? So, I think we should provide certain subsidies to families with children. Is this legal?]

Yan Ye: [I don't know if it's legal, but it shouldn't be illegal.]

Chen Yu: [Okay, it's settled then! You draft a set of regulations specifying how families with children will receive subsidies. That's it.]

Yan Ye: [...Okay, Mr. Chen. May I ask in advance, which Star Lord overseeing reproduction have you set your sights on, and are you planning to bring them over?]

Chen Yu: [Don't overthink it, just do it.]

After ending the call, Chen Yu felt even better.

He now has another way to spend money. He has the masked man's image and music, and Ji Nanyuan is going to put a negative effect on him. How could he possibly lose? This time, I'm going to make it all back with interest!

Thinking about this, Chen Yu became even happier.

After confirming that there were no problems, he updated the masked man's true form and related music into his dream, and then continued watching Miao Qingyu's live stream, enjoying the way the players' negative emotions were being harvested by him.

Watching players play while feeling desperate because of his design finally gave him the feeling of being a demonic cultivator.

One dream day in the instance is equivalent to three hours in reality.

Now, ten cities have fallen, and the map of Changsheng Prefecture is shrinking. There are now only forty-five cities left.

The conquered city will begin to corrupt on the third dream day, and the former buildings will be corrupted into dark structures during the eclipse, from which a large number of corrupted creatures will be born.

Once the city falls, corrupted mechanical structures will begin to corrupt these areas, creating new blocks and constructing various corrupted machines before launching an attack on nearby cities.

After discovering this phenomenon, many players were filled with despair.

During the day, I have to deal with Prince Zhao of different colors, and at night I have to deal with these corrupt creatures. The whole dream is unplayable!

But seeing the city they had built in a month, these players could only curse Chen Yu as inhuman while gritting their teeth and calling for reinforcements to resist the increasingly intense attacks.

They will die if they do nothing, they will die if they fail to defend properly, and the fall of the neighboring city will exponentially increase their pressure. This forces them to build a complete defensive line in order to hold out.

"Journey to the Abyss: The Descendant of the Demon King" broke out of its niche due to the death of Zhuge Xingjun, and this dream quickly became a hot topic of traffic recently.

The fall of city after city was regrettable, but the players' fearless spirit was also deeply moving. It was as if the others were getting to know the players for the first time and witnessing their demise firsthand.

Whenever a city falls, a streamer will make a video about it.

While some may have wanted to monetize the traffic, their actions also highlighted the sacrifices made by others, gradually drawing attention to this large-scale event.

After seeing the city after its reconstruction, even players who don't play Dreamland felt a sense of longing and couldn't help but cheer for them, hoping they could persevere.

After discovering that Chenguang had once again become a darling of online traffic, many media reporters immediately sensed the allure of online traffic.

Realizing that this place could become a new hotspot for traffic, a large number of reporters were mobilized, and various radio stations used various means to try to contact Chen Yu and get a share of the profits.

Yan Dazui, located in Fukuzawa City, is no exception.

Sensing the media's shift in opinion, he immediately submitted his application, packed his bags, and prepared to head to Tianyuan to use his connections to have a proper conversation with Chen Yu.

With his relationship with Chen Yu, he is sure to be able to extract a lot of exclusive reports, which will further enhance his status in the media industry of Fuze City.

However, just as he was about to enter Tianyuan, he discovered that his application had been approved in the morning, but was rejected at noon, and he was told to come back early in the afternoon and not to conduct any more interviews.

Suspicious, Yan Dazui contacted his boss. Just as he was about to ask if the boss was trying to steal the credit, he heard his boss say wearily, "I'm sorry for what I did to you this time. Come back."

"What's wrong? Did someone see you running around naked?"

How did you know! Who told you?!

"..."

"...I was just joking, don't take it seriously. I can't go into too much detail, but in short, someone is putting pressure on the higher-ups. They said you can go and do the interviews, but the articles you get can't be beneficial to Tianyuan. Considering your position, I think it would be a waste of money to go, so let's forget about it."

"Who is this person? They're so rich, they can even bribe the station director?"

"I don't know, but I get the feeling they're in the real estate business."

"Real estate? Why do you say that?"

"Because you have the scent of a temple keeper of the Earth Deity. But don't say that. When are you planning to come back? I'll buy you a ticket."

Looking at Tianyuan behind him, Yan Dazui remained silent for a while before suddenly saying, "I'm not going back."
