Chapter 251: The First Surprise of the New Year!

Chapter 251: The First Surprise of the New Year!

For Su Ping, this was his first time spending New Year's Eve alone, and even more significantly, he was spending it with all his remaining pet beasts, making it an extraordinary occasion.

For many others, the dawn of this New Year held the same extraordinary significance.

Take Dong Muchuan as an example, or the countless individuals at this moment who were not keeping vigil with their families but were instead being scolded by them, squatting in front of their computers.

Of course, aside from being scolded, there were still many family members who were squatting in front of these computers alongside them, eagerly awaiting the countdown.

For these people, the dawn of the New Year, from the eve of the New Year to the first day, was a special occasion.

Because at this time, the high-end product released by Pingyun Corporation was officially launched today!

This was a groundbreaking product.

Undoubtedly, anyone who could afford this item was not an ordinary person.

However, even if they were extraordinary.

At this moment, they still had to wait in line patiently, at most calling upon their subordinates to join them in the queue.

Aside from that, trying to use their most proficient method of pulling strings would be utterly useless.

Among them were some influential figures.

Nevertheless, Dong Muchuan did not give any of them face this time, no matter how important they were.

Of course, this was limited to those below the Holy Spirit rank.

However, even those who had reached the Holy Spirit rank did not pay much attention to the appearance of the Dream Heart.

After all, at that level, they had far too many daily matters to attend to.

Perhaps some people would be interested in the Dream Heart, but without verification from others who had used it, it still lacked credibility, especially when they only had the advertisements and that little girl's live stream to go by.

Therefore, after seeking help from Dong Muchuan to no avail, these people had no choice but to quietly queue up to purchase it.

They had no other option; they also wanted to use some unconventional means.

However, upon learning about the background of Pingyun Corporation, their idea vanished into thin air.

There was no need to say more about Dong Muchuan; since the late Liang Dynasty, he had been part of the Mirror Sage Clan.

Although the clan had slightly declined in recent times, its heritage was not something ordinary people could easily challenge.

Under such circumstances, it was naturally not comparable to ordinary people.

However, aside from Dong Muchuan, the most important person was the one whose name was hidden.

Su Ping, the top breeder in this year's Breeder Competition.

At the same time, he was the one whom Sage Sang and Ghost Sage had personally vouched for. While ordinary people might not know this, those with keen senses had heard about it clearly.

Therefore, those who had initially harbored some ulterior motives suddenly became well-behaved.

Even a few who had originally intended to cause trouble for Yin Yin, the little live streamer with no powerful backing, abandoned their plans.

At this moment, Dong Muchuan did not return to the Dong family's old residence like Dong Muchuan did, but instead sat nervously in the office building of Pingyun Corporation.

"Chairman, it's about to start!"

Assistant Luo, sitting beside him, also clenched her fists in anticipation, watching the countdown on Pingyun Corporation's official website.

Although they were only selling a mere twenty-eight Dream Heart helmets, it was important to note that the price of the Dream Heart was exorbitant.

A selling price of 120 million was not something ordinary people could afford.

"Hmm, Xiao Luo, how long do you think it will take to sell these twenty-eight Dream Hearts?"

Assistant Luo naturally understood that her chairman was a bit nervous.

Otherwise, with the chairman's personality, she would never have asked such a question.

Therefore, to boost her chairman's confidence, Assistant Luo thought for a moment and slightly exaggerated, "At this time, during the vigil, many customers probably won't be sleeping. I estimate that within half an hour, they'll all be sold out! After all, the response to the Dream Heart has been excellent, and Yin Yin's live stream has also been very effective.

In the live stream, I've observed a few big spenders who are definitely potential buyers of the Dream Heart!"

Half an hour.

Dong Muchuan nodded; after all, thirty failed mechanical cores were a significant price.

With billions in costs piling up, it would be a burden for Pingyun if they couldn't sell them.

Time slowly passed, and finally, at this moment, the digital clock on the wall reached zero.

Dong Muchuan let out a sigh of relief.

Then, in the backend of Pingyun Corporation, Dong Muchuan gently refreshed the page.

At this moment, Dong Muchuan could assure with her Sovereign-rank Beastmaster strength that she had not wasted much time.

Within a mere five seconds, from the moment the digital countdown reached zero at midnight, the presale numbers at the backstage display transformed into a clear and unmistakable 0!

Zero?!

Dong Muchun and Assistant Luo blinked in disbelief. Could it be that in less than five seconds, everything was sold out? How was this possible?

But it was indeed the case.

At that moment, Dong Muchun logged into Yin Yin's livestream.

Surprisingly, Yin Yin hadn't ended her broadcast yet. It was evident that her livestream served as the central hub for all those who were currently focused on the Dream Heart.

"Fisherman: I got it! {Picture} {Picture}"

"Longcheng Chen: Haha, I got it too, and I even got two!"

"Haonan: Damn, I'm so jealous. Chen, what about the other one? I'll add 20 million more!"

"Er Ya: I'll add 50 million, Brother Chen~"

"Afu Dog King: Jealous of the rich guys above who got the big toy."

"..."

The chat messages flooded the screen, each conveying the same message.

The popularity of the Dream Heart far exceeded expectations, as evidenced by the continuous stream of additional requests and complaints about Pingyun's low production capacity.

Dong Muchun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Simultaneously, he instructed Assistant Luo, who was beside him:

"Alright, prepare to receive these VIPs. Get their identification and customize the helmet effects according to their requests."

Dong Muchun couldn't wait to send a message to Su Ping, informing him of the good news.

On this New Year's Eve, while some rejoiced, others worried.

At that moment, in the imperial capital of Longguo, also known as the capital city of Longcheng, a particular location remained bustling with activity, even during this festive season.

The building of the Heavenward Surveillance was still operational, with its staff working through the night.

The ancient tomb raiders, now known as the Heavenward Surveillance Secret Realm Exploration Team, had been exceptionally busy during this period.

Huang Tianbing rubbed his red eyes and glanced at the seemingly endless pile of files detailing special circumstances in newly discovered secret realms. He sighed in exasperation.

What the hell is going on? The number of secret realms discovered in the past two years has skyrocketed.

And the number of troublesome issues has increased exponentially.

As if to confirm his thoughts, a knock sounded on his door.

The former Deputy Lin walked in, his eyes filled with anxiety: "Boss, the Tide Vortex Realm on Yanzun Island in the Eastern Sea has encountered a problem!"

Huang Tianbing rubbed his temples and forehead, "What happened?"

"The spatial vortex has developed some cracks in its spatial body!"

"What?!"

Huang Tianbing's eyebrows furrowed. He had initially thought it was a minor issue of energy tide fluctuations.

The appearance of cracks in the spatial vortex indicated not only the potential for the secret realm to violently explode, affecting the real world, but also the possibility of the secret realm world merging with reality, leading to a temporary local spatial anomaly.

This was a severe situation.

"Damn, how did the situation deteriorate so quickly?"

Huang Tianbing's eyebrows tightened, but Deputy Lin hesitated before speaking, "It might be related to the spatial characteristics of that Tide Sage. Their spatial abilities are incredibly powerful, causing the secret realm to become unstable after merging with reality.

If not handled properly, the Tide Vortex Realm might completely collapse and merge with reality in about two months..."

Huang Tianbing nodded, "The residents on Yanzun Island in the Eastern Sea have been evacuated, so there's no immediate danger. However, it's still part of Longguo's territory. The fusion of the secret realm space could lead to spatial anomalies and have a significant impact on future generations.

Regardless, we must address this issue as soon as possible."

Old Lin smiled bitterly, anyone could say those words, but how should they handle it? Each spatial weapon was invaluable, and it was best to avoid using the spatial oscillator if possible.

Unfortunately, the Tide Vortex Realm's location was awkward. It wasn't in a densely populated area, so it wouldn't cause significant property damage, but it was still a tricky situation.

Using the spatial oscillator or requesting assistance from certain powerful beings wasn't worth the trouble, but leaving it unattended was like having a persistent fly buzzing around.

However, it was clear that Huang Tianbing paid no heed to Old Lin's helplessness. He waved his hand dismissively, "I've already figured it out. Go back and keep an eye on it. You've worked hard this time. After the matter is resolved, I'll give you some annual leave."

Deputy Lin had given up on his hopes, after all, the boss had been saying this since the second half of the year, but it had never been fulfilled.

After Old Lin left, Huang Tianbing tossed the file aside and turned on his computer.

He opened the backend again, but the messages from Master Su had long stopped responding.

He understood, after all, the Breeder Competition was a big deal.

Compared to the secret realm, it was naturally a trivial matter for him personally.

However, before, he had been communicating with this young master in the backend, and more or less, they could be considered acquaintances, right?

If it was before, Huang Tianbing was cautious because this Master Su was the Ghost Sage and had special skills for the secret realm.

Now, knowing that this young master had won first place in the Breeder Competition, he was even more careful.

When facing such an existence, one must be cautious.

But the Tide Secret Realm did need to be dealt with.

Therefore, it was time to personally contact this young master!

Huang Tianbing exhaled and made up his mind.

He knew Master Su's phone number, after all, he had seen it when filling out the young master's information.

However, calling out of the blue seemed a bit abrupt?

Huang Tianbing's cautious nature from his customer service days made him feel it was impolite.

So, he worked and thought about it until midnight.

Finally, on the first day of the new year, Huang Tianbing used his phone to decide to wish Master Su a happy new year first!

In the early morning, Su Ping, who had just dozed off, opened his eyes.

The first day of the new year.

Naturally, he couldn't have woken up at this time.

The phone rang, and various notification sounds from video calls, voice messages, and text messages filled the room.

Su Ping wondered why he hadn't turned off his phone before going to sleep.

【Qin Xiaoxue: On the first day of the new year, don't sleep in! Get up!】

【Ye Zhou: Happy New Year, Brother Su. When can I go to the Wood Heart to study the Dark Flame Ancient Crow together?】

【Dong Muchuan: Our Dream Heart is selling like hotcakes! I think we should increase production.】

【Sun Chao Ju: On this first day of the new year, I wish everyone success in their companion beast endeavors...】

【Yang He: On this first day of the new year, I wish everyone success in their companion beast endeavors...】

【Wang Wei: On this first day of the new year, I wish everyone...】

【Zhao Lao: On this first day of the new year...】

【...】

Looking at the uniform notifications, black lines appeared on Su Ping's forehead.

Damn, are these wolf companion beast breeders from the Jianghai Breeder Association using a copy-pasted message? Can't they be more sincere in their New Year greetings?

But soon, Su Ping saw a strange message:

【Phone Number 154: Happy New Year, Su Ping. Who is this?】

Su Ping was puzzled. Although his private phone number wasn't exactly a secret, not just anyone could call it, right?

However, he didn't think much about it at the moment, as the video calls, voice messages, and phone calls kept ringing.

Su Ping checked each one.

He hung up on Su Anyong's call without hesitation.

Apart from that, there was Qin Xiaoxue's eager New Year's call.

Of course, most of the others were similar.

Su Ping replied to each message, and as expected, Liu Fuhai's call came through as well.

Su Ping answered: "Old Liu, we're so familiar with each other, no need to be so formal, right?"

"Hmm, what's the matter?"

Liu Fuhai was slightly taken aback but quickly brushed off the details and eagerly replied:

"Alright, you're not at the Wood Heart now, right? I and Master Zhu are on our way there. The evolution of the Elemental Origami Being is complete!"

"Huh?!"

Su Ping was about to complain about not being home on the first day of the new year, but in that instant, he realized what Liu Fuhai was saying.

The further evolution of the Elemental Origami Being was complete? He hadn't expected that on the day after the Spring Festival, Old Liu would give him such a big surprise!
