Chapter 108: Rage of the Undead
“This is a trap.”
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Coral City is waiting for the masked stranger.
Whether he comes or not, the butcher's knife is there.
The Scimitar Organization has been established for many years. Although it is not as powerful as the old North Wind Organization, it is also well-known in the wilderness.
The collapse of this organization was a heavy blow to the resistance forces.
"Just eat your meal and don't think too much." Dad knocked on the table with a serious look.
"yes."
The three of them lowered their heads and began to dig for food.
Ever since Yu Tuo came, Hong Bafu has become much more careful with his words and his voice is not as loud as before.
Lan Bafu is still relatively introverted.
The two brothers were wondering whether the masked man would show up to save people, and Su Xia was also thinking about it.
Any rash action would only lead to death. He needed more information. Fortunately, there was still a whole day today.
After breakfast, the three continued to make the potion.
Today is another day without any orders. Most of the old customers have been ripped off by Su Xia, and the new customers are busy dealing with various matters after the chaos in Coral City has been quelled, and have no time to enjoy the potion.
After more than ten minutes, Su Xia handed her body over to the bracelet and logged off to eat breakfast.
What he didn't expect was that all his roommates in the dormitory were up.
Not only did they all get up, but they also all seemed to be full of energy, with their fingers flying on the keyboard and their faces looking a little grim.
"Why do you all get up so early today?"
Su Xia took out a box of earthwork frames from the cabinet and came behind Li Defu.
Li Defu's hair was messy and slightly greasy, his eyes were bloodshot, and the dark circles under his eyes were so dark that they could rival those of the pandas in the zoo. It was obvious that he was in a state of severe sleep deprivation.
But he was so excited that he looked like he had just drunk several bottles of Red Bull, and even his fingers on the keyboard had afterimages.
"I thought you were teaming up to fight for the BOSS, but I didn't expect you were fighting with people on the forum."
Su Xia was surprised when she saw what was on Li Defu's computer screen.
Not only Li Defu, but the other roommates were all arguing with others on the forum.
They are all veterans in verbal battles, and they use different insults to insult others. Although on the surface they are just ordinary college students, they secretly have a mysterious identity as "Internet opinion leaders."
I often argue with people online.
The platform where they quarreled with other players was a post on the "Look Up at the Stars" game forum.
The title of this post is:
[As long as you provide a location of a resistance organization, you can exchange it for a set of top-level equipment from the Coral City NPC. Brothers, come and claim the benefits! ]
The poster's name is "Four Seasons Rice".
The player wrote in detail in the post: "Not long ago, I provided the location of the Scimitar Organization to Qi Lang, the human city lord of Coral City. I got a set of top-level equipment from him that cannot be bought with money at this stage. The equipment attributes are as follows..."
Below is a long list of screenshots. The equipment in the pictures are unimaginable for players at this stage.
Any normal player would be very greedy for this set of equipment.
The "Four Seasons Rice" continued to write: "I have gained Qi Lang's trust and have entered the core management of Coral City. I have my own 'Undead Management Department', which is responsible for the mobilization of players. If you want to become a strong person, then come and join us..."
This post was posted in the early morning two hours ago.
There are already an astonishing ten thousand replies below.
If it was just a peaceful discussion, it would be impossible to come up with tens of thousands of pieces of information in such a short time.
99% of the information is generated by the quarrel between the two parties.
One side, represented by Li Defu and others, started to criticize directly after reading the post.
"You're so shameless! You've harmed so many people just for a set of equipment..."
Previously, Su Xia used the identity of the Masked Stranger to reveal the disgusting rule of Coral City to the players.
Many players didn't have a good impression of the mechanical race to begin with, and after getting some inside information, they became even more disgusted with them.
But some people responded: "Those in the game are not real people, they are just data. What's wrong with exchanging some data for equipment?"
Others expressed their support: "As long as I can become rich overnight, I can accept the death of a thousand people who have nothing to do with me in real life, let alone games!"
Just like that, two groups of people with different values started to criticize each other under this post.
The fighting power of both sides was extremely strong, and the spray lasted for two full hours, with no reduction in firepower to date.
Li Defu saw this post when he got up to pee, so he woke up everyone in the dormitory except Su Xia, and immediately logged into the forum to join in the war of words.
"Brother Su, you are a civilized person and you don't seem to have ever cursed anyone." Li Defu said, "So I didn't call you. We, the crude people, can handle this kind of thing!"
"I see."
When it comes to the art of language, Su Xia really can't compare to these roommates.
Coral City has also begun to take advantage of players, which Su Xia had expected.
Players who can come back to life and stay online 24 hours a day are simply the most perfect consumable materials.
Su Xia was chewing on a clay frame, thinking about the situation in Coral City while watching Li Defu's art of scolding people.
Li Defu's ten fingers flew as he shouted to his opponent, "Are you still surfing the Internet? The crematorium called and said your mother got stuck in the pot. Go check it out!"
The opponent responded: "You idiot."
Li Defu: "That's it? You only know this sentence over and over again? Can you use your brain to make up a few new words? Are you reluctant to use your brain and keep it as a legacy?"
Opponent: “You…”
It only took Su Xia a while to take a dump, but Li Defu had already changed several opponents.
He dismantled another geogrid and went to check on the other roommates, and found that these guys were all extremely strong.
"sharp."
Every profession has its own expertise, and Su Xia could only admire it a few times.
After breakfast, Su Xia took her textbooks and went to the teaching building to attend this morning's class.
During class, he always follows the developments in games and forums .
Gradually I figured out everything that happened in the early morning.
"It turns out that this guy named 'Four Seasons Rice' did not follow the many refugees to join the Scimitar Organization." Su Xia learned the details. "He chose a random start and was one of the players who landed in the Scimitar Organization's base. Soon after the server was opened, he recognized the owner of an equipment repair shop in the Scimitar Organization as his teacher and took on the profession of repairman..."
Mechanic repairman is also a golden profession.
As long as he develops well, his ability to make money in the future will not be worse than Su Xia's pharmacist.
After that, the messenger from Dragon City came and asked the Scimitar Organization to move its base and leave all the players behind.
Logically speaking, all-season rice should also be left behind.
But after much persuasion from the NPC teacher, he finally got a transfer spot and moved to the new base along with many other NPCs.
Then, by "helping refugees", he got a safe route between the Scimitar Base and Coral City.
The rest is easy.
He sneaked out of the Scimitar Organization's base, and through this safe route, avoided countless monsters and wandering mercenaries in the wilderness, successfully arrived in Coral City, and found the infamous Zhao Si.
“Sure enough, birds of a feather flock together!”
At the forum, Sijidao did not feel guilty about betraying his teacher and the organization, but was rather complacent.
He also wrote a detailed guide.
Including "How to approach important NPCs", "How to gain the trust of NPCs", etc...
He also said:
Tomorrow at noon, he will personally hang his teacher on the gallows. He hopes that everyone will go to watch and show their support.
[That old guy has been refusing to teach me new equipment repair drawings. Let me see how I torture him tomorrow!]
After reading this post by Sijidao, Su Xia's face turned ugly and he felt a strong sense of disgust.
Put yourself in his shoes. If he were Sijidao’s teacher, I wonder how sad he would be now.
His own apprentice betrayed his organization and killed countless people...
Under that post, there were actually countless players who supported it and gave Sijidao various suggestions.
One player said: "It's really boring to just hang him. Why don't you ask the mayor of Coral City to use some torture, such as cutting off pieces of his flesh..."
Someone below chimed in: “Yes, everyone wants to see something nice!”
"It's just a game character anyway, the game company won't censor it, so you can play it however you want!"
“…”
Perhaps the replies below were too shocking, so the post was quickly locked by the forum administrator.
Looking at those bloody words, those who don’t know would think that it was a group of wandering mercenaries incarnated as players leaving messages below.
What the rich man was right. Many people in this world have a twisted side in their hearts, but they just can't find a way to vent it.
