First Player

Chapter 278 Chapter 276·"I'll be at your door soon"

【December 4, 18:00 in the evening】

[Lord God World·30 Area Server]

In the lotus pond, schools of bright red fish swim.

In the courtyard, purple clay pots are steaming.

The woman with dark hair lifted up her cherry blossom kimono, poured tea, walked back to the wing, and opened the wooden sliding door.

A middle-aged man with white beard and hair, wearing a black kimono, is sitting on the tatami, closing his eyes and concentrating.

The woman took off her shoes and went inside, put the tea aside, and knelt down in front of him.

The men said nothing and the women remained silent.

Pink flowers like cherry blossoms fell outside the window, and a thin slit opened in front of the middle-aged man's eyes.

The woman bows her head.

"Please tell me where Qing is." She spoke with a steady voice.

The middle-aged man didn't answer and just closed his eyes again.

The woman's head was lowered, her body was bowed, and her hands were shaking slightly.

The thick air completely enveloped her, and the air was so quiet that she could hear her breathing.

Her heart beat loudly in her chest, and she sat like a motionless statue.

Finally, in the mist of tea, the middle-aged man spoke.

"You just need to keep your duty. We will handle Qing's matter."

The woman did not raise her head, but continued to bow.

After a long time, the man spoke again:

"Alan has to tell you, Qing is fine. As long as you keep winning, you will see her sooner or later."

The woman's eyes brightened even more.

The middle-aged man stood up, took off the bamboo knife hanging on the wall, and went out.

The wooden door closed, Mizushima Kawakora raised his head, his fists clenched completely.

"Qing... I will definitely do it, keep at it."

Her eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes that were about to burst.

Thick dark circles accumulated under her eyes. She stood up unsteadily, held on to the wall, and walked out.

The sun shone on her hand, and on the back of it, five white lines glowed with a faint sheen.

She went out, looked at the sky gradually turning red and burning, and turned off the do not disturb mode.

"Ding dong!" "Ding dong!" "Ding dong!"

A series of "ding dong" sounds suddenly rang in her ears.

This is a reminder that the World Forum is particularly concerned about, indicating that someone she follows has posted a post.

The people Mizushima Kawakawa usually pays attention to, the twenty or thirty most important people, are all the top 100 players in the rankings, as well as some important organizational leaders. As for the top-ranked player who posts several times an hour and looks like an old two-dimensional player, she doesn't pay attention to any of them, which only distracts her attention.

But now...what happened?

Why do you send them in succession?

She stretched out her hand, opened the forum interface, and saw several prompts popping up.

…

[The player you follow (Noel) posted a post. 】

[The player you follow (Edward) posted. 】

[The player you follow (Flora) posted a post. 】

[Players you follow (looking north)...]

[The player you are following (Lin Jiang)...]

Ani, Yamada Machichi, Adolf, Hubert, Flora...

A large number of names that were posted on the forum and shocked the world appeared one after another at this time. They were all silent and blockbuster existences.

Mizushima Kawakora was stunned.

She remembered that even when the human self-rescue conference was held and such a major world event happened, these people's posts were not as enthusiastic as they are now?

...What's the big deal?

Her heart tightened and she quickly opened the interface.

The first thing that caught her eye was the home page of the World Forum, and she could see the most popular recruitment post at the top at a glance.

[(Hot) New Volunteer Hospital Recruitment Post—The Blueland Rescue Team is currently recruiting! 】

This is a post that suddenly exploded in popularity after the first batch of adventure players in the Sixth World returned. The content was about the construction of a temporary hospital and the recruitment of various talents.

Experts and scholars, former doctors and nurses, including construction workers and civil workers are also in demand. Even if you have some strength and are willing to contribute, they will recruit you.

Volunteer service is all about free dedication.

When this post first appeared, Mizushima Kawakawa secretly mocked people's naivety. She felt that if this kind of volunteer recruitment was placed in the previous world, there would be a lot of applicants, but now... the benefits are intuitive, players are isolated, danger is at hand, everyone is in danger, and who would give up on themselves? Opportunities to improve yourself and make selfless contributions?

...But she soon discovered that her idea was wrong.

She misjudged people's determination.

... Even in such a world, there are countless people who are willing to contribute to the overall situation, even if they give up their personal interests.

The human heart is a very complicated thing. Mizushima Kawa Sora realized the truth of this sentence for the first time after seeing the popularity of the recruitment post.

She glanced at the post.

["This world needs heroes." The latest activity schedule of the United Group - the general public and volunteers are welcome to participate. 】

[The fighting spirit engraved in civilization has a long history. Now the only way to overcome this disaster is to fight. 】

[Fellow travelers called human beings, unite and survive for ourselves, our beloved family members, and the civilization we have inherited to this day! 】

【This world needs you! 】

[Weakness is never an obstacle to survival - may you start small and end with greatness. 】

In addition to this paragraph, the post is also accompanied by pictures and texts of various activities under construction, and a speech by a volunteer below.

…

Mizushima Kawakawa pulled to the bottom comment area. She thought it was accused of over-reviewing.

But as more and more positive comments came out, even she had to believe that maybe there really were kind and good people who could dedicate themselves to this cause so far.

【The future of the world belongs to mankind! 】

[I can’t play the dungeon, and I can’t play the sub-career. Now I finally found something I can do. I’m going to sign up now! 】

[This is the power of civilization. Even in such a world, humans still have the blood of group animals flowing through them. 】

[Even if there are difficulties, we can do everything we can to overcome them! This is human civilization that has emerged from disaster! 】

…

Although she once doubted the usefulness of those idle players, and suspected that the game only brought this group of people in to hinder them.

But occasionally, there are shining points in some people that even she can no longer blame.

"Ding dong! Ding dong!"

While Mizushima Kawa Sora was reading the post, she was particularly concerned about the continued posting. She almost forgot the real purpose of opening the forum.

She opened the "Special Concern" interface and clicked on Noel's latest reply——

[Noel: Huh? Still hilarious? Yin and yang, continue to be yin and yang in front of me, meet offline, and touch in the game copy, do you dare? Don't be anonymous if you can, I'll be at your door now. 】

Mizushima Kawakora: "..."

Mizushima Kawakora: "?"

She almost thought she was wrong.

Who is this addressed to?

She clicked on the full text and found a long... It was so long that she could pull it down to the bottom and it was endless. There were traces of battles like Noel machine guns. She almost chased and scolded other players. The people on the first floor danced and cursed to tens of thousands of people.

She took a closer look and saw that the curses were all directed at a specific group of players.

[56L Mushroom Xiaoxiao (Level 3 of the Blacksmithing System): I think the first player is very suspicious to begin with. Who will obey him? 】

Noel immediately followed one below.

[(Reply) Noel v (World Ranking 2): Your home in the Lord God’s World lives by the sea? Is the tube that wide? Do you want to accept it? Is the number one player elected or based on strength? 】

…

[128L Ah Qiqi (Second Level of Pharmacy Department): The number one player has such a high weight. If he suddenly betrays us, wouldn’t we all fall into his hands? I didn’t believe it before, why the organizer would send someone to be among us, but now I finally understand the reason. 】

[(Reply) Noel v (2nd in the world rankings): When you are thinking about something, please empty your mind first. You are like an ant, why do you need to plant a traitor? Looking at you like this, the cause of death was due to IQ, right? 】

…

[598L Godfrey (Silver Level Strategist): The first player is a student, has little vision, and is easily tempted by benefits. How can he have a beautiful goal in the end? The number one player should have been replaced a long time ago, even His Highness Edward is better than him. 】

[(Reply) Noel v (2nd in the world rankings): Oh? I understand, I understand your way of thinking. You like that kind of pretentious pseudo-aristocratic partying, you really have the face of a little person. Strange... Logically speaking, human beings should evolve with the changes in the world. How come the garbage among humans still looks like you? 】

The quarrel below spread into a mass.

The main reason that set off the ignition line and allowed so many top players to speak was a reply that followed closely.

[(Reply) Edward v (Third in the world rankings): No, Noel, your remarks are fundamentally wrong. In such a world, there is no distinction between nobles and commoners. Everyone has the right to fight for their own status. , whichever way they choose is their freedom. As a leader, you should be fair, just and open. Therefore, I have been completely transparent about who I am and what my goals are. My original intention was to make everyone feel at ease with me, and the reason for the quarrel was all the fault of the concealer, who failed to win the trust of the masses...]

[(Reply) Noel v (2nd in the world rankings): Stop talking, I have mysophobia, and you happen to be trash. 】

…

"puff."

Seeing Noel's straightforward reply, Mizushima Kawa Sora couldn't help but laugh.

She continued reading and soon discovered the reason why top players crowded together to post.

Edward has come to an end, and many people who are unwilling to be left alone also want to improve their sense of existence.

Players have long concluded the correlation between the popularity of the live broadcast room and points, and there is a stepwise trend. The top three most popular live broadcast rooms have the highest live broadcast points. When they reach the fourth place, they will drop off a cliff, and even more so after reaching the fourth place. After a few million people, they can only get minimum living security.

This has led to many players who have strength but lack of popularity to still want to fight for their own popularity.

Even at this stage, showing off their presence in front of others and gaining some popularity can satisfy their vanity in front of others.

The first players don’t need to consider the popularity and topicality, they do.

They are not like others, they are the core wherever they go, and their names can be mentioned in every post.

At this time, it is easier to gain a sense of presence and show the name of the guild behind you than to show off your strength in the game copy.

[Flora v (10th in the world rankings): Damn it, I worked hard for twenty minutes to reply to the serious topic of human self-rescue, but I just stopped laughing at Little Noel's reply. That's so cute, little Noel, do you need a big sister girlfriend who's a few years older than you? 】

…

[Beiwang v (seventh in the world rankings): Well scolded (well scolded). 】

…

[Nata V (Lighthouse Guild Certified Administrator): My dear president has not appeared for a long time. This is indeed our mistake. But why now, do you still need to be "controlled" by a group of you? (smile.jpg)]

…

[Adolf v (14th on the world rankings): No matter what, the number one player is always the number one player. All strength comes from himself. We have all seen it and it should not be judged by others. 】

…

[Aini v (16th on the world rankings): Hey, is it wrong? Before I had a chance to scold you, you group of public netizens scolded me first? Su Mingan is my destined enemy. Before I understand the secret of fire and truly defeat him, are you worthy of slandering him? Are you worthy? 】

…

[Yamada Town 1v (23rd on the world rankings): Su Mingan... is not a bad person. 】

…

[Lin Jiang v: It’s so funny. There are barking dogs everywhere, and there’s not a single person who knows gold. 】

…

I don’t know what made these top players angry.

...They actually unanimously started to defend Su Ming'an.

Despite the different words, no one followed the trend and slandered him.

Mizushima Kawakawa looked at this unprecedented scene of unity among the top players.

Although she had known for a long time that these people did not have any deep hatred for each other. At most, Edward and the others had a gap with Su Ming'an, but she did not expect that at this time, this group of people would get together.

She continued brushing down.

The situation has gradually escalated.

Mizushima Kawakora gradually understood... people are different after all.

Some people will be enthusiastic about participating in unpaid volunteer services, while others will naturally turn around and sow discord with the players at the top of the list.

Human beings are always colorful.

But the strange thing is that this time, most of the players at the top of the list were not provoked, but were protecting the number one player.

Noel's first reply was two hours ago, and the time Edward was trapped was an hour and a half ago. Other top players spoke up at different times.

During this period of time, there were already a large number of posts on the home page that began to broadcast the incident. If you clicked on any comment post, there would be people watching.

It was difficult for Mizushima Kawakora to understand why an incident of Noel's retort suddenly caused such a big uproar, which almost attracted all the top players in the world to watch the show.

But after thinking about it carefully, she felt a little relieved.

After all, this is a rare long-term hiatus. Many players who have just returned always like to visit the forum for a while. Seeing this kind of thing, it is not surprising to get involved.

Sometimes, trends come so quickly.

She scrolled down again, and suddenly a lot of hot posts appeared.

These posts suddenly appeared one after another as if they had been agreed collectively, and their popularity quickly soared to hundreds of millions.

Her eyes widened as she looked at the series of posts.

"Strange, how could these people..."
