Shirou's clones number 30 million

"We can take your case, but what about payment? You can't expect to get something for nothing."

"Of course not. But there's no need to give you money." Yasaka Shirou thought for a moment, then tentatively said, "How about a meal?"

"You cooked it yourself?"

"can."

"I'll decide on the menu." Shirou Shiro smiled slightly.

"Hmm...you wouldn't go too far, would you?"

"What do you think?"

"I don't think you'd go too far as to order hundreds of dishes."

"I think Liangshan is pretty good."

"One hundred and eight? Okay, then it's settled."

The next moment, Yasaka Shirou formed a hand seal, and the shadow clone instantly dissipated, turning into a wisp of smoke and disappearing without a trace.

After he dispelled his shadow clones and returned to his original body, Yuri Tenshou leaned close to Shirou Shirazawa's ear and whispered:

"Is he you from another world?"

"Ah."

"Why is he collecting technology from other worlds? Judging from his school uniform, he should just be a high school student like us, right?"

"There's no way around it, the pressure from the universe is just too much."

Shirou Shirawa smiled and then explained:

“A few days ago, he suddenly encountered a girl from outer space who claimed to be Nyarlathotep.”

"Of course, it's not a big deal in itself."

"But he learned from the other party that Earth's rating was too low to qualify for the Universal Union because its top-tier entertainment culture in the universe had led it to be classified as a protected planet."

"While this sounds good, it's like humans protecting endangered animals. It shows that aliens don't consider humans as equals at all, and they have no intention of exchanging ideas with each other."

"Therefore, he conceived the idea of ​​improving Earth's technology on his own and bringing Earth into the cosmic alliance."

"But there are also concerns that a sudden explosion in technology could attract the covetous eyes of the universe and lead to theft by planetary protection agencies."

"Ultimately, when the benefits are great enough, it's inevitable that the other party will be tempted. This matter is of great importance, and we can't place all our hopes on the moral standards of extraterrestrials."

"One of his backup plans was to spread various rankings around the universe to stir up trouble when Earth was in danger."

"And our world is one of those experimental fields."

Tianxiang Youli fell silent, resting her chin on her right hand, and said as she thought:

"There shouldn't be any aliens around here, right?"

"It's hard to say, but I haven't found any yet."

As he spoke, Shirou Hakusawa created three shadow clones, ordering them to go and collect technological data.

This is an urgent task; Shirou Yasaka intends to accelerate the development of Earth's technology, which involves all aspects of technology.

It's just virtual technology from the Sword Art Online world; it's not enough to make Earth's rating successful.

"Shirou, aren't you going to collect otherworldly technology?"

"Personally, I don't think it's necessary. Compared to forcing growth, natural development is better."

Shirou Hakuzawa paused for a moment, then smiled and said:

“I had thought before about learning the technology of the universal capsule and implementing it in our world.”

"But upon closer examination, it's really unnecessary. Overly advanced technology will only bring negative effects."

“Hmm.” Tianxiang Youli nodded slightly. “I also think that steady development is the best.”

"By the way, have things been alright at school and Enoshima these past few days?"

“I…I saw you surrounded by a lot of students on the school playground yesterday.”

"Then, just like before, you said something, and everyone scattered at the same time."

"Is it really okay to use superpowers so recklessly?"

"This is already several problems." Shirou Shiro chuckled. "Don't worry, everything is fine."

Chapter 614 Getting 100 million views doesn't seem so difficult after all.

Chapter 614, Section 615: Reaching 100 million views doesn't seem so difficult after all.

Time flew by as we chatted, and it was closing time again.

However, just as the two had set up the tables and chairs, Shiro Hashiba suddenly trotted in with a pile of documents.

"Wait a minute, don't close the door yet. Let me hang these order forms up."

"Where did you get so many missions from?" Shirou asked curiously.

"Isn't this all because of the accident a couple of days ago? Thanks to that, the murder game has become a hot topic, and people have discovered that many people who have been missing for a long time were actually involved in the murder game."

As Shirou Hashiba pasted the request form onto the quest log, he said without turning his head:

"There's a murder mystery game, do you remember it?"

"It is only circulated among live streamers, with only a handful of participants. Since the specific name is unknown, it is temporarily named 'Live Streamer's Escape Game'."

"These people were originally thought to be missing, but now people have discovered that they are actually still alive."

"So, family, friends, and audience members all called the police."

"But the police searched for several days in a row and found no clues, not even the slightest trace."

"This afternoon, under pressure, the police issued investigation requests to all detective agencies nationwide."

This is yet another consequence of the rankings.

Shirou Shirazawa belatedly realized:

That's true. It would have been better if we hadn't known before, but now that we know there are many murder games in the world, it's natural to wonder if those missing people were involved.

"Wait, I remember this murder mystery game had a condition that you could pass the game if the number of viewers reached 100 million?"

Shirou Hashiba unconsciously stopped what he was doing, recalled some distant memories, quickly found the anime that was almost forgotten, and then looked down at the request form in his hand.

"It seems there is such a thing."

"So, the question is, where did these 100 million views come from? Since there's a requirement for views, they must be live streaming right now."

"Let me look for it!"

Shirou Hashiba reacted instantly, put down the order form, and hurriedly turned on his computer.

The live stream is definitely taking place on this planet, and the audience refers to Earthlings.

If it were aliens, I wouldn't be unable to detect them.

"Got it! It's a small place overseas, currently being broadcast live."

Shiro Shiro and Yuri Tensho both moved closer at the same time.

Perhaps due to the cross-border nature of the situation, the signal was poor, the computer screen was intermittent, and I couldn't hear any sound.

However, it can be vaguely seen that the people in the picture look the same as the missing persons on the order form.

"Should we go and save them right away?" Shirou Shiro asked instinctively.

"Wait a moment!"

Shirou Hashiba pondered for a moment and said:

“In the past, it would have been very difficult to reach 100 million views.”

"But now that the Metropolitan Police Department has issued requests to detective agencies nationwide, they certainly won't hesitate to put in the effort."

"With official promotion on television, and if you add viewers from all over the world, it's not difficult to reach 100 million views, let alone 1 billion."

"Good idea!" Shirou Shiro nodded slightly. "Let's do it that way."

"Ah."

Shirou Hashiba peeled off the newly pasted service requests and handed them over.

"Why give it to me? You accepted the commission yourself, so go find the commissioning party yourself!" Shirou Shiro looked surprised.

“They just accepted the commission, then turned around and ran back, saying they found it themselves. Isn’t that slapping others in the face? Besides, I don’t think they would agree to go to such lengths for just eight people.”

Shirou Hashiba paused for a moment, then smiled and said:

"What I mean is, you should go find your dad. Although he's not with the Metropolitan Police Department and isn't in charge of this matter, he still has some influence."

"I have no problem going to him, but like you said, making such a big fuss over eight people, it's impossible to get it approved, right?"

"I said it definitely wouldn't work, but you said that's not necessarily true."

Shirou Shirawa chuckled, took the request form, and shook his head slightly.

"I'll go back and tell them, but I can't guarantee it will work."

"Why not just go and bring them back? Why go through all this trouble?"

“Trouble has its advantages.” Shirou Hashiba turned off his computer and said with a smile, “Although it’s troublesome, this method is more beneficial than harmful.”

......

Inside the living room of Bai Ze's house.

"Dad, you're home really early today."

"Is it early? It's almost eight o'clock already."

Shirazawa Nobuhiko glanced at the receipt in Shirou's hand and the laptop on the coffee table, then sat down on the sofa:

"Speak, what is it?"

"Dad, didn't the rankings from a couple of days ago show a streamer's escape game?"

"Oh...? Is that a power of attorney in your hand?"
