Chapter 16: Forum Controversy_l


    Trantor: 549690339


    Upon entering the official forum, Su Yu immediately saw the bold, brightly highlighted pinned post – “1V100! Mysterious yer sweeps aside the tyrannical Zhan Tian Guild, the results are thought-provoking.”


    Opening the post, Su Yu saw aplete third-person video footage where the “Zhan Tian” Guild was charging an entrance fee to the vige and having a dispute with ordinary yers, eventually leading to a massacre.


    The yer who posted the video was very considerate, meticulously describing the causes and consequences of the incident.


    At the end of the post, they called out, “The Zhan Tian Guild’s actions have reached an intolerable level! If they dare to charge an entrance fee just after the server opened, what will they do next? Will they monopolize game resources?”


    “We must stand up and resist the Zhan Tian Guild! The Zhan Tian Guild must apologize! They mustpensate the yers that were harmed!”


    The post was published twenty minutes ago and instantly exploded on the official forum.


    Many yers replied, expressing their support:


    “Support! We can’t allow the big guilds to behave unscrupulously! ”


    “As a witness, the Zhan Tian Guild really disgusts me!”


    “For just a tiny profit they treat ordinary yers this way, such a guild needs to be expelled from the game!”


    “My friend just became a reserve member of the Zhan Tian Guild, he’s been boasting about it to me. I’m gonna kick him out right now! We need to distance ourselves from these bastards!”


    “But that guy who did the IVIOO is so freaking amazing! Even if he was using the BUFF given by the NPC.”


    “If it were me, even with the BUFF, I wouldn’t dare offend a big guild like Zhan Tian!”


    The yers passionately discussed the issue.


    Within a short twenty minutes, thousands of replies were made to the video thread.


    Scanning through it, Su Yu found out that only a small part of the replies were from real yers; most of them were from ordinaryizens who couldn’t afford helmets and were only flooding the forum.


    But that didn’t affect the public’s denunciation of the Zhan Tian Guild.


    Soon, the entire forum was filled with posts cursing the Zhan Tian Guild.


    The forum administrators didn’t shy away from making things worse, they made the video post a top highlighted sticky post.


    In the forum, there was nothing but curses.


    However, taking a look at the top few pages of posts, Su Yu found that members of the Zhan Tian Guild had arrived inrge numbers and many people were beginning to dispel rumours on the forum:


    “Wait, is everyone mistaken? The people charging in the video aren’t from our


    Zhan Tian Guild!”


    “I’m a member of the Zhan Tian Guild and even a leader of the Elite Team. I’ve never heard of anyone in our guild doing such things!”


    “Yes! Our Zhan Tian Guild values its reputation greatly. Anyone who has yed “Magic Realm” should know this, we’ve always maintained the game environment, we would never do such low-level things.”


    “I’ve yed “Magic Realm”, I can vouch for Zhan Tian being a decent guild.”


    “Someone must be impersonating us…”


    Members of the Zhan Tian Guild flocked in one after the other, the forum quickly filled with posts dispelling rumors.


    The posts were quite effective, many spectators began to believe their words, no longer cursing the Zhan Tian Guild, but quietly watching for the follow-up.


    I’m afraid the Zhan Tian Guild will soon produce decisive evidence, and the entire incident will simmer down.


    Here, Su Yu had finished his takeaway meal.


    He let out a small sigh: “Zhan Tianjian is quite skilled! If it continues at this rate, he’ll quickly smooth things over.”


    “No, they can’t get through this crisis easily, I need to think of a n…got it!” Su Yu got a bright idea.


    He took out his phone to check the time, and nodded: “Half an hour has passed, Red -Eyed ck Dragon should be online by now, I’ll contact him.”


    Su Yu put on his gaming helmet and logged into the game.


    Nn Vige cemetery.


    A vast white light shed, and Red -Eyed ck Dragon was resurrected here along with dozens of Emperor Blood Guild members.


    As soon as Red-Eyed ck Dragon came online, he immediately checked his death log.


    After seeing the name of the person who killed him, Red-Eyed ck Dragon couldn’t help but yell out: “Damn! It’s ‘Nemesis’! It was actually Nemesis who killed us!”


    Behind him stood the other three core members of the Emperor Blood Guild: Giant God Soldier, Sky Dragon, and Swift.


    Giant God Soldier was a gloomy-looking young man. He looked at the death log and his face was very ugly: “So we were killed by this high-level yer who took down a level 4 boss, there’s no injustice in our deaths.”


    Sky Dragon was a cute redhead Ioli, her face full of confusion: “Really? I just saw the video post on the forum, he clearly killed us using a BUFF given by a high-level NPC!”


    “Those are all lies to deceive people!” Swift was a blonde big sister type character, she brushed her hair and said:


    “There was about two and a half hours between when Nemesis killed the level 4 boss and when he killed us. Even a high-level NPC wouldn’t give him a BUFF for that long. There’s only one answer – Nemesis truly has the strength to kill


    us instantly!”


    “He just got lucky, that’s all!” Red-Eyed ck Dragon scorned: “Everyone’s level is low right now, but once we level up and get better gear, I’ll show Nemesis what true cruelty is!”


    “Alright, the server just opened and time is precious. We’ve already wasted half an hour, we can’t waste any more, let’s level up.”


    Red -Eyed ck Dragon gestured, leading the guild members out of the cemetery.


    But before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly received a system prompt: “Ding! yer ‘Nemesis’ has requested to add you as a friend.”


    Red -Eyed ck Dragon’s face instantly froze, and his movements stopped as well.


    Noticing that Red -Eyed ck Dragon had stopped, Swift and other core members turned back and looked at him: “Red, what’s wrong?”


    “Uh… it’s Nemesis, Nemesis actually wants to add me as a friend!”


    Red -Eyed ck Dragon stared at the word “Nemesis” in the system message, his eyes almost bulging out.


    “Heh! Didn’t you say you were gonna show him ‘what true cruelty is’? Show him then!” Swift immediately egged him on.


    “Yeah! Red-eyed Uncle, you can’t back down!” Sky Dragon also said with an innocent smile.


    “Well… okay then.” Red -Eyed ck Dragon thought for a moment and clicked the “agree” button.


    But after agreeing, he immediately utilized his fast typing speed, honed from decades of being single, and typed out a long string of characters:


    “Nemesis, Sir! I am honored to have a friend like you! I sincerely apologize, just now my brothers and I may have caused you some unpleasantness, we hope you can forgive us!”


    Seeing this, Sky Dragon and Swift were almost stunned.


    “Red? Is that what you call being cruel?”


    “Uncle Red? Could you perhaps grovel more?”


    Red -Eyed ck Dragon waved them off in annoyance: “What would you little girls understand!”


    Then he turned his back to them, staring intently at the private messaging interface, waiting for a reply from “Nemesis”..
