Black Tech Internet Cafe System Chapter 162 – Watching for Free? The Shop Owner Is Nice!
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Due to the celebration banquet and other things, people like Nalan Mingxue and Song Qingfeng came into the internet cafe quite late today.
“No seats available?!” They glanced around the internet cafe and then walked to the opposite shopfront, saying in frustration, “How come the two places are both full?”
Fortunately, the waiting line wasn’t long, so they decided to stand behind the seats and watch others play first.
Fang Qi was playing Diablo.
“Sir, why are you searching for the Council Members? It’s not easy to get items from these bosses.”
“I’m trying to get runes.” Fang Qi answered casually, “If you want runes, you must find the monsters like these council members. If you want items, find Old Meph.”
Song Qingfeng’s face turned stiff when he heard the shop owner call that big boss such an intimate name.
Fang Qi thought, I have to be nice to it since I want items from it…
Fang Qi’s items right now were quite good. Since the difficulty level was normal, it wasn’t dangerous for him to dash into Travincal all by himself.
Standing behind Fang Qi with a bottle of Coke in their hands, Nalan Mingxue, Song Qingfeng, and a few others watched him try to obtain runes.
Meanwhile, a private spiritual boat landed in Jiuhua Harbor outside of Jiuhua City.
A woman wearing a black royal dress walked down the spiritual boat, and she was followed by a handsome guy wearing a bright yellow robe.
They were protected by several bodyguards.
“It has been a long time since I last came to Jiuhua.” The Royal Princess glanced at the city wall. “It has changed a lot.”
A robust military officer was waiting outside to welcome them with a team of guards; he was Gong He.

“Where’s the Castellan?” the Second Prince asked.
Gong He didn’t know what to say. He had sent countless messages to An Huwei, but the latter didn’t respond.
“The Castellan didn’t feel well today, and he asked me to greet you…” Gong He praised himself for his quick wits.
“Forget it. We came in a hurry and didn’t have time to inform Castellan An,” the Royal Princess said, “Let’s go to the Origins Internet Club.”
“Yes…” Gong He wiped cold sweat off his forehead.
Fang Qi’s shop was on the edge of the city and thus wasn’t far from Jiuhua Harbor. Soon, they looked at the small shop and asked, “Is this the shop that they mentioned?”
“It looks quite common…” The Royal Princess, Ji Yu, frowned with disappointment since she had imagined a grand and magnificent shop that was totally different from the common shops!
However, this shop in front of her looked nothing unusual except the lavish use of glass, and she was surprised that it was located in a civilian area.
Walking into the shop, she found it was full of customers. Before the counter, two white-haired old men were talking about something with several robust middle-aged men. One of the white-haired old men sat on a bench beside the counter and was enjoying a container of snacks.
This old man looked quite familiar to her.
Ji Yu’s pretty face twitched. Is that old Duke Nalan, who is renowned for his great merits in the war?!
She glanced around and saw Song Qingfeng, Nalan Mingxue, and a few others standing in a group, yelling, “Holy Shield! Sir, use Holy Shield!”
“F*uk! The shop owner’s charge is so powerful!”
“Oh! It dropped! Rune No. 13?!”
Looking at the group, Ji Yu’s eyes flashed, recognizing them as the unrivaled elites at the national examination!
Nalan Mingxue, a super genius who had reached the late stage of Master Warrior Realm at 16, also stood there and tossed out comments occasionally.

“…”
Then, she saw a middle-aged man leaning on the counter on his elbow. He was talking loudly while gulping down Haagen-Dazs…
Isn’t he Castellan An?! He claimed that he was ill, but he had actually been here? The Royal Princess’s face turned dark.
What’s happening?!
Gong He said embarrassedly, “Old Duke said that he doesn’t want all those formalities when he is in here…”
“Where’s the shop owner?” Royal Princess Ji Yu felt uneasy since this shop looked far from the wondrous high-end shop in her imagination.
Gong He glanced around and pointed at the center of the yelling crowd, saying, “I guess the shop owner is there playing games.”
Ji Yu felt like everything here went against her expectation.
She felt that she must follow the basic etiquettes, so she walked forward and greeted Nalan Hongwu.
Soon, the elite disciples of Shengjing Academy and Xiyi Academy came. Then, Premier Zhang walked in.
“Ugh? Why are you all standing here?” Premier Zhang looked surprised in simple clothes.
“All the seats are taken…” They felt like crying, not expecting that they had to wait in line after coming to this shop!
They were either lofty geniuses or high-rank aristocrats!
However, they all had to wait here in line for their turns! More importantly, some of them even couldn’t find a place to sit!
Besides, no one came up to receive them! There was only a loli leaning on the counter listlessly! She didn’t even care to move her feet!
How can a shop be operated like this?!
Ying Zongxuan froze. “It took us great efforts to come here, and we have to wait in line?!”
Xiao Lengyu’s face was also stiff. “How can the shop owner manage the shop like this?”
Seeing Nalan Mingxue who was standing behind Fang Qi and watching him play, Xiao Lengyu’s face turned dark as she asked, “How can the shop owner let you stand while he himself sits there?”
Nalan Mingxue glanced at her and then pointed at the small blackboard. The rules were clear; play or leave.
“Yet, you still…” Xiao Lengyu was about to ask why they still came here when she thought of their performance at the national examination.
There must be a great master guarding this wondrous shop, which explained its eccentricity.
“By the way, I only heard about the Legend of the Sword and Fairy.” Xiao Lengyu pointed at the small blackboard and asked, “What is Jade Dynasty?”
The others had the same question, and they all pricked their ears for the answer.
Nalan Mingxue looked at her and froze. “I don’t know either.”
“…”
“It’s said that you killed a real god in the Legend of the Sword and Fairy?!” Xiao Lengyu asked in wonder, “Is Jade Dynasty about the war among immortals?”
“War among immortals?!” The people from Xiyi Academy and Shengjing Academy all looked toward them.
While playing Diablo, Fang Qi asked, “Oh, what time is it now? It’s 8 PM? I’ll turn on the livestream.”
“Turn on the livestream?” Nalan Mingxue asked, “What are you broadcasting today? The new item?”
“Bingo!” Fang Qi said, “Unfortunately, there’s no prize for the correct answer.”
“What’s a livestream?” Xiao Lengyu asked again.
“You can watch Jade Dynasty on the livestream,” Nalan Mingxue pointed at the big screen and said.
“Watch? How much?” When Xiao Lengyu asked the question, many disciples came over to listen.
“It’s free.”
“Really?!” Xiao Lengyu said in surprise.
Hearing their conversation, excitement spread among the disciples of Shengjing Academy and Xiyi Academy.
“Let’s watch Jade Dynasty! The shop owner will let us watch it for free!” Everyone waiting in line perked up at the news.
