Chapter 165: Taking Sides

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Han Xing had finally found the trick to passing the levels. Whether it was mysterious mechanisms, magic arrays, or bizarre creatures, he used the Six-Star Sparkle skill for all of them.

This skill could only be used once per round, which meant he could use it again only after reaching a new level. As for the aftermath of using the skill, he left it to the other members of the guild.

Fourteen Continents was responsible for paving the way with water skills, while Double Stream Storm quickly froze enemies, and Pattering Little Horse and others provided mana support to the guild members.

After enduring the torment of the previous levels, they had thought that the subsequent levels would become increasingly difficult. Little did they know that the guild master had such a powerful cheat, enabling them to breeze through the game effortlessly.

The players from the Mad Dragon Guild were having a blast in the Deathly Tower, while Zhang Wanshan and other small streamers interviewed the eliminated players outside.

Zhang Wanshan grinned as he looked at the indignant player in front of him and said, “We haven’t seen any players from the Mad Dragon Guild being eliminated yet. Is it because they are so strong?”

“Nonsense!” the player exclaimed angrily, stomping his feet. “Damn it! The Mad Dragon Guild is heartless. They treat us ordinary players as cannon fodder. Otherwise, they would have been eliminated long ago!”

“Why should such a stupid guild exist? I really can’t believe you idiots admire such a guild. Why don’t you just die?”

His words successfully ignited the anger of many people in the live stream. Originally, most of the viewers were fans of the Mad Dragon Guild, but now everything had been turned upside down.

“I remember your ID. Don’t you dare run away later! What kind of crap is this? You guys wanted to join a team yourselves, leaving no place for us fans. How dare you complain and make excuses!”

“You guys don’t have any skills, so who’s to blame? You have some nerve to ride on Star Rebel’s coattails. If you’re capable, go team up and clear the dungeon of the Deathly Tower by yourselves. What are you doing here?”

“I’ve formed a team to target this player. Those who want to kill him, join me.”

“Here comes the lapdog of Star Rebel. It’s the Mad Dragon Guild’s fault anyway. Why do they treat ordinary players as expendable? I really want to laugh. This kind of guild doesn’t deserve to thrive in the Second World, and they have so many brainless fans.”

“A bunch of players with abnormal minds. Is Star Rebel worth your adoration? Are you all mentally deficient?”

Zhang Wanshan smirked as he watched the player in front of him and the barrage of comments between the viewers. He had no intention of stopping them. In fact, he hoped the heated debate will intensify and fan the flames further.

Let them be. The more intense their arguments, the better it was for his live stream’s viewership.

Seeing the data on Zhang Wanshan’s side, other small streamers also capitalized on the key to create buzz by deliberately provoking the eliminated players.

In a normal guild, there would not be such a high level of attention. After ail, that was how the game world worked. However, the target this time was different. It was the renowned Mad Dragon Guild.

The Mad Dragon Guild was flourishing and had become a thorn in the side of other guilds. Now everyone had found an outlet for their grievances.

Many players started discussing this incident on the official forum, criticizing Han Xing from various angles.

“I told you a guild like Star Rebel’s couldn’t do anything good. They use other players as stepping stones.

“Hahaha, didn’t someone expose Star Rebel on the internet? Just a wealthy playboy. His current status and position are all blown out of proportion by others. He was ranked first on the personal leaderboard shortly after the server opened, but it meant nothing.”

“Stop spreading rumors. If you want to criticize Star Rebel’s character, 1 might believe you. But if you’re spreading rumors about his skills, then 1 can only say you’re brainless. There are so many videos circulating online showcasing his impressive kills, and there’s no doubt about his skill.”

“You can freely criticize Star Rebel all you want, 1 don’t care. But if you’re criticizing his skills, then I can only say he’s amazing. 1 consider myself a professional keyboard warrior, but 1 can’t deny Star Rebel’s skill.”

Initially, many players took this opportunity to vent their frustration, but little did they know that the official forum discussions would take a different turn. It shifted from initially bashing Star Rebel to questioning just how strong his skills were.

This turn of events was unexpected even for the streamers present at the scene.

Petite Delicate did not want to give these people an opportunity to exploit the situation. The guild master and the others were still busy clearing dungeons. Hence, she took the task of defending the dignity of the Mad Dragon Guild into her own hands. With that in mind, she decisively started a live broadcast.

She did not reveal the mineral veins and crystals she had in her possession.

The guild master had advised against making them public until certain requirements were met.

Now that Second World had been open for a while, players knew that once the number of deaths reached the system’s limit, equipment would start dropping.

Many players in Second World had already started specializing in this area. When Petite Delicate began her live broadcast, a significant number of curious onlookers entered the live stream, resulting in a direct drop in Zhang Wanshan’s popularity by half.

This was a testament to Petite Delicate’s influence and popularity, not to mention that she was still a member of the Mad Dragon Guild. Many players wanted to know the inside scoop and immediately bombarded her with comments, asking about the current situation of Star Rebel and his team.

Petite Delicate pursed her lips and said, “Which floor have they reached? I’m not quite sure. But everyone, please refrain from spreading rumors online. We, the Mad Dragon Guild, are very friendly.”

“Regarding those players who claimed to be used as stepping stones by the Mad Dragon Guild, all 1 can say is this: Reflect on what you have done.”

“As for those who enjoy inciting discord, time will tell how the tides turn.”

Her remarks ignited the enthusiasm of netizens. After ail, who would not enjoy some sniper action? Moreover, Petite Delicate’s attitude was clearly directed at Zhang Wanshan and his group of streamers.

In any case, Petite Delicate, as a streamer, had not joined any guild or signed with any company. Nobody could control her. She had openly aligned herself with the Mad Dragon Guild, which sparked discontent among many viewers in the live stream.

“I am a member of the Mad Dragon Guild. If my fans cannot accept this, then 1 can only bid them farewell.”

Petite Delicate’s attitude was extremely firm, and although she lost some fans, the number of new fans increased several times over.

On the other hand, there were many supporters of Zhang Wanshan’s in his live broadcast, but instead of gaining momentum, the viewership was declining. The smile on his face faltered as he saw the falling numbers.

He still did not know what had happened until he heard the small streamers beside him quietly discussing that Petite Delicate had started her broadcast..
