Sorry for the late update!

After dealing with the giant beast, Chu Yan and Qiao Zhiya finally got down to business. They took out the map and started looking for the remaining treasures. At this time, the other two teams had each found another treasure, and there were only six undiscovered treasures left.

This time, Chu Yan showed his cleverness. He easily found the hidden treasure clues from the map, and then led Qiao Zhiya to the treasure place according to the clues given. From then, it was Qiao Zhiya’s expertise – he communicated with the nearby animals to ask for extra clues. With that, they quickly found the treasure place; and after getting the treasure, he rewarded the animal with a little wood-elemental magic power and food, and left gracefully.

The audience was amazed, happy and proud. Their impression of Exoplanet Natives were getting better by the second. The supervisors, meanwhile, gritted their teeth watching this, wishing they could get into the live broadcast and help their juniors get all the other treasures in their pockets at once!

At the end of the day, Chu Yan and Qiao Zhiya had successfully harvested two secret treasures, and the other two teams also harvested the third treasure one after another. The undiscovered treasures in the forest became two.

After a night’s rest, the treasure hunt continues.

Chu Rong and Qiao Zhiya were unlucky that day. The first treasure spot they found was visited by other teams. When they moved towards the second one, Chu Rong’s voice suddenly came from the live broadcast equipment.

“Fifteen treasures have been found. The Xiang-Wei family found six treasures in total, the Ning-You family found six treasures in total, and the Chu family found three treasures. The average score of each family is three points. It’s a tie.” 

Xiang Kun, who was celebrating the newly found treasure, looked up at the live broadcast equipment. He looked dumbfounded and irritated. “What? A tie?” There were only two members in Chu Yan’s team, but they actually found several treasures? This is unscientific!

On the other side, Ning Kongran, who was leaning on the tree and watching Ning Konghua’s analysis map, also looked up at the live broadcast equipment. The corner of his mouth ticked off. ‘This boring activity is finally over with a tie. Really a result that fits the festive atmosphere.’

“Now I have a new mission for you,” Chu Rong’s cold voice echoed in the forest, which seemed to make the entire forest silent. “For this mission, you are free to search, and all valuable treasures obtained in the forest will be counted as points. Your final result will be the sum of all your points. As for the treasure’s points value, it will be calculated based on how valuable it is in the Federation’s currency. After the results are out, the total amount you get will be the baseline for the donation for Exoplanet Natives Protection Organization, but doubled. The deadline is 6 PM tomorrow. Before the time limit ends, please bring your treasures to the top of the No. 1 mountain. If you fail to gather before the stipulated time, your result this round will be invalidated.” 

After this announcement, a big golden number “1” suddenly appeared on the top of the south mountain, like half a cloud floating in the sky, exerting its existence. 

After listening to the content of the mission, the members of each team looked at each other for a few seconds, and then they all complained in their hearts.

There were still tasks to do for half a day! This time it was even more inhumane, it was actually a free treasure hunt! If they searched hard and found a lot, that meant they had to donate more, which was a monetary loss but could earn them publicity; on the other hand, if they search perfunctorily, it would be easier to them and less of a monetary loss. But if they did it sloppily, the public would bite into them.

Seeing how hard this mission was, this mission was definitely thought up by Chu Rong! 

On the other hand, after hearing about the new mission, Chu Yan and Qiao Zhiya both laughed happily. They looked at each other, tacitly stuffed the map into the space button, and galloped through the forest again — the real festival began!

The audience also cheered after hearing the new mission, the unknown treasure hunt. Compared to the previous mission, this was bound to be more interesting! Plus, there was a donation event, which gave it a good look. 

[Children, come on and find it!]

[Whether the Exoplanet Natives can have a good festival depends on you!]

The attention of the audience was diverted, and the impact of the giant beast incident gradually faded.

The dwarf boy once again showed his amazing treasure-hunting skills. He went up to trees and down to the rivers, drilled holes and climbed slopes. He dug out strange and good things from places that people could not imagine. The pile of “little snakes”, “little bugs”, “little birds” and “little plants” made the audience so hooked that Chu Yan almost forgot his last name.

In contrast, the situation of the other two teams was very bad. They broke away from the fixed safe route, and their treasure hunting road became tortuous and bumpy. Continuous hurdle after hurdle were waiting for them. Either they almost lost their way, or strayed into the territory of wild beasts, and were chased as a result. The idea of ​​worrying about how to control the number of treasure hunts before has become a complete joke, let alone treasure hunts now, they just hope that they wouldn’t finish this empty-handed. 

What’s even more irritating is that on the top of the No. 1 mountain, the treasure hunting of each team will be broadcast in real time. One after another cloud-like writing flashed in the sky, and it was all broadcasting Chu Yan’s and Qiao Zhiya’s achievements. Xiang Kun was so angry that he almost lost his grip on his cultivated image. He secretly vowed to find a big treasure that surpassed Chu Yan!

The atmosphere in the Ning family was also a bit dull. Their team had the most people and the pressure was high, so it was too ugly to be at the bottom.

Since the beginning of the event, the most turbulent and most fraught day has appeared.

Ning Kongting accidentally slipped down the hillside, ruining the image of the young lady she always carried. Ning Konghua misanalyzed the terrain and made a big mistake. When Xiang Kun discovered a mecha manufacturing material, he was too excited and broke the reserved image he had been pretending to be. He scolded Chu Yan a few times, which weirded the audience a bit. Wei Lan showed his delicate and wilful side, as he could no longer stand the hassle at all.

Ning Kongran, Xiang Jing, Wei Yu, You Xia, and You Yuanyuan who have always played in their true colors have always been stable. They were getting more and more brilliant, with their scenes appearing more frequently.

As for Qiao Zhiya and Chu Yan, the audience has followed Chu Yan’s heartless cheers and calculated how much blood the Chu family will bleed this time, and the joyful atmosphere was the strongest.

As the last day of the event approached, Xiang-Wei and Ning-You teams encountered unsolvable situations one after another. They couldn’t help but ask their supervisors to ask for help. With help, they successfully got through the difficulties and harvested some more precious treasures.

After lunch, each team made a final count and began to move towards the No. 1 mountain — the energy of their respective mechas were exhausted, so they could only walk there.

Chu Yan stretched comfortably, looked up at Qiao Zhiya sitting on the tree, and yelled, “Qiao! Come down, it’s time to go home!”

Qiao Zhiya, who was looking at the forest in a daze, was called back by him. Fascinated, he glanced at the No. 1 mountain from a distance, then at the approximate location of the giant beast. He lowered his head, jumped off the tree, and said, “Come on, let’s go.” 

The audience, who were already familiar with him, looked at his melancholic expression. They also felt a little sad. 

They have already seen that this Exoplanet Native boy really liked the forest. After being freed from the shackles of the treasure hunting route, he looked so happy as he moved freely in the forest, and his eyes were full of joy. For him, the forest might be a reminiscence of his home.

It was only at this time that they realized that those modern civilizations that made them feel superior to the Natives might not be so glamorous at all. 

They had long had this stereotypical view of various Exoplanet Natives races. Thankfully, they had opened their eyes and corrected their previous prejudices. 

Chu Yan looked at Qiao Zhiya several times, and finally couldn’t bear to see his lack of energy. He put his arm on his shoulder and said, “It’s the holiday, let’s be happy. You see, the activity is about to end, but we haven’t used ‘supervisors help’ yet. How about we use it now?” 

“Huh?” Qiao Zhiya recovered and looked at him suspiciously.

“Why don’t you ask Erge to come down and let him accompany us for a while? The opportunity will be wasted if we don’t use it. The audience must also want to see Erge,” Chu Yan said, and deliberately glanced at the live broadcast equipment, and asked seriously, “Am I right or am I right? You all want to see my Erge in the flesh.” 

The audience was stunned for a moment, and then cheered crazily: [Look! The God of War of the Chu family! The youngest Marshal of the Federation! Our savior!] 

[I wanna look, look, look! Must see! Ahhhh!!!]

[This must be holiday benefits! Third Young Master Chu understands me!]

Qiao Zhiya was moved by Chu Yan’s words, and his depression eased a little. He took out the supervisor pager from his storage ring, suddenly became nervous, and asked, “Do you really want to use it?”

“Use it,” Chu Yan patted him on the shoulder, smiling so hard that he showed his teeth, “Erge must be waiting to come down.” 

In the supervisors room, other supervisors looked at Chu Rong in unison, with indescribable expressions — They went down to help the juniors with tasks, but now Chu Rong went down to see the scenery and show off. The difference was too big, and they didn’t want Chu Rong to go down at all!

“Sir?” Fan Xiangnan asked with a smile as he looked at Chu Rong who was subconsciously sitting up straight in front of him.

Chu Rong put down his teacup, side-eyed at the other supervisors. He got up, straightened his military uniform without hiding his good mood, turned around, and strode outside. 

The supervisors couldn’t help staring, ‘Wow! Before that bastard went, he used his eyes to sneer, it was so fucking irritating!’

After the button was pressed, a firework shot up into the sky.

On the live screen belonging to Chu Yan and Qiao Zhiya, a black mecha suddenly plummeted from a high altitude, and then stopped steadily when it reached a few meters above their heads. The cockpit opened, and a tall man jumped out of it. 

The audience cheered and excited: [Oh, the Marshal is here! Hurry up and give Third Young Master Chu a brotherly hug!]

The mecha disappeared, Chu Rong landed on the ground, and then strode forward… bypassing Chu Yan and directly hugged Qiao Zhiya who was staring at him blankly. He rubbed his ears vigorously, and said in a low voice, “I’ll pick you up.” 

Audience: ??? 

Was there something wrong with the script? Why did the Marshal hug the cute little Native first, but then left his younger brother aside?

Chu Yan, who was directly ignored: “…” Ah, that’s true, I’m used to it… Ha ha.

Xiang Lingyun in the live broadcast room couldn’t help but sneered, and said, “He really knows how to act.”

Wei Xiongchang and Xiang Hui immediately agreed.

Fan Xiangnan gave a low cough, showing his presence.

All the supervisors froze, the corners of their mouths twitched. They fell silent while gritting their teeth inwardly. ‘Don’t even think about doing this bloody shit again!’
