Chapter 22 The Press Gets a Taste of Failure

You Ge's eyes lit up. He loved gossip, but the reporters were professionals at digging up and creating it. There was still a bit of a difference between amateur and professional. You Ge very friendly pulled Duo Mu and Mu Duo over to Yun Zhong Mu, and then retreated to the side, ready to listen to the untold story he hadn't been able to pry out himself.

The others clearly lacked the gossip gene. Gu Fei, who was least interested, was already asking Han Jia Gongzi what the next steps were for killing people. Han Jia Gongzi was focused on his wine glass, and not very interested in the interviews either. Yu Tian Shen Ming and Zhan Wu Shang were just discussing whether Mu Duo counted as a beauty, and later attracted Huo Qiu to join the discussion. Jian Nan You and the others were considering what kind of fees they would charge if they were ever interviewed. Piao Liu looked nonchalant, as if he was used to the scene, while Nuo Fu Jiu Xing was the opposite. He had never heard of game reporters, and although they weren't interviewing him, he was very curious being so close.

Yun Zhong Mu was in a good mood, and didn't have any resistance to the two paparazzi. But after asking around, You Ge sighed. Duo Mu and Mu Duo also felt like they were being teased. Clearly, good mood aside, Yun Zhong Mu wasn't cooperating with their interview at all, and was just playing with them. He didn't seem to want to reveal his true thoughts and intentions.

Duo Mu and Mu Duo sighed. This firsthand interview with the person involved was full of difficulties. It seemed that this report would lack a lot of depth. However, they didn't force the issue, and after a brief greeting with the celebrities, they left. They couldn't interview Yun Zhong Mu, but there were still many targets to interview. Duo Mu and Mu Duo continued their busy work.

Yun Zhong Mu waited for the two to leave, then rejoined the table, wanting to continue seriously discussing the issue of the Eagle Regiment.

"I've already said it, your Ten Guild Alliance will disband, so there's no way to predict what the Eagle Regiment will do next. Originally, of course, it was to continue to find trouble for you," said Han Jia Gongzi.

"Ying Qi is finished inventorying, they'll have to change to a new warehouse. Maybe they'll be responsible for moving goods next?" Yun Zhong Mu speculated.

"It's possible. This matter must be done by absolutely reliable people. Judging from the fact that the people of the Eagle Regiment can enter and exit the warehouse at will, they should be able to take on this responsibility. However, materials are the most important thing for the workshop, so I think they won't be stingy with scrolls if conditions permit," said Han Jia Gongzi.

"Alas, if only we knew where their new warehouse was," Yun Zhong Mu said, eager to have a big fight with the Eagle Regiment.

"Let's wait and see. A lot has happened today," Han Jia Gongzi said.

Everyone present nodded. Although many people didn't do anything in detail today, the overall content of the game these past two days was really rich. Now it seemed to be entering a period of respite, and everyone was relieved.

At this time, the busiest were of course Duo Mu and Mu Duo. From the big conflict between the Ten Guild Alliance and Ying Qi Workshop, starting from the game and escalating to the forum, the two of them had been paying attention to this news. They wanted to report on this matter, but they didn't expect it to develop so quickly. In less than a day, the Ten Guild Alliance had announced its dissolution. Duo Mu and Mu Duo didn't dare to delay, and rushed into the game to conduct direct interviews. But they didn't expect that the first main character they encountered, Yun Zhong Mu, was an impregnable fortress, and they returned empty-handed. Afterwards, the two of them frantically wandered around Moonnight City. Through their relationship channels, they finally interviewed some other members of the Ten Guild Alliance, including some former high-level members. Ninety percent of these people who continued to persist in the original guild expressed a high degree of dissatisfaction with Yun Zhong Mu and his brothers' hasty withdrawal from the guild, which led to the breakup of the Ten Guild Alliance.

However, Duo Mu and Mu Duo, who prided themselves on being very professional, didn't want to become a mouthpiece. Although they couldn't directly ask about Yun Zhong Mu's thoughts, they still objectively analyzed why Yun Zhong Mu would say the words "tired" through many details. As for what stories happened in this contest with Ying Qi, the two reporters who traveled all over Moonnight City couldn't find out no matter how hard they tried.

So the two decided to make this content into a series, first reporting the current results and then starting to dig out the truth from the beginning. So that night, at the peak of the number of players online, the news of the dissolution of the Ten Guild Alliance was sensationally reported by the famous reporters Duo Mu and Mu Duo.

At this time, even Yun Zhong Mu was watching the two's report. Seeing their analysis of him after hinting around, he couldn't help but sigh, "Damn, these two guys really have some tricks."

Duo Mu and Mu Duo were worthy of being veteran online game reporters, with a keen sense of smell. Although Yun Zhong Mu didn't cooperate with them, they analyzed Yun Zhong Mu's thoughts of withdrawing from the guild with almost perfect accuracy. The two sincerely pointed out that Very Heaven definitely felt the strong pressure from the strength of Ying Qi Workshop in the struggle against Ying Qi Workshop. Most people in the Ten Guild Alliance might not know this pressure, but Yun Zhong Mu, who had been fighting on the front line, had already keenly noticed it. He discovered that there was no chance of winning, so he resolutely led his brothers to withdraw from the Ten Guild Alliance. His real thought might just be to use this method to take away the hatred with Ying Qi, so that more players in the Ten Guild Alliance wouldn't have to be involved in this vortex. Yun Zhong Mu! The leader of the largest guild team in Parallel World, worthy of being a responsible boss!!

"You guys talk too much..." Yun Zhong Mu was half happy and half worried as he looked at the report. He wasn't happy about Duo Mu and Mu Duo's positive report, in fact, that was what he was worried about.

How could Duo Mu and Mu Duo immediately capture Yun Zhong Mu's location as soon as they went online? In fact, this was somewhat due to Yun Zhong Mu's secret cooperation. The dissolution of the Ten Guild Alliance was news that would spread instantly in Moonnight City, but for other main cities, not too much attention and communication would likely make them know about it much later. So Yun Zhong Mu needed to use the mouth of an outsider to spread this news as quickly as possible, so that more people would know that the Ten Guild Alliance had been dissolved.

Why was it dissolved? Believing that no one needed to analyze it, anyone could think that it must be related to the recent entanglement between the Ten Guild Alliance and the workshop. The workshop's so much energy, I believe would cause considerable anxiety among many players. The feeling of rabbits dying and foxes grieving would make them sympathize with the Ten Guild Alliance. If Ying Qi Workshop or the Eagle Regiment wanted to continue to attack those old members of the Ten Guild Alliance at this time, it would definitely trigger public outrage. This was something the workshop absolutely didn't dare to do. They paid more attention to their image in the hearts of players than guilds did.

Yun Zhong Mu couldn't be sure whether Ying Qi Workshop had too much personal hatred towards them. He was worried that even if the guild was disbanded, Ying Qi would still not give up. So he secretly cooperated in such a drama, letting the dissolution of the Ten Guild Alliance spread throughout Parallel World at the fastest speed, wanting to use the public's mouth to block Ying Qi's move.

Things went smoothly. Duo Mu and Mu Duo's report was undoubtedly the fastest and most widely spread way to spread news in the game. It was just that these two guys also said too much. Yun Zhong Mu didn't say anything, but they deduced Yun Zhong Mu's thoughts very realistically. This was equivalent to exposing Yun Zhong Mu's purpose to Ying Qi...

"Even if they know, I believe they can only let go, right? I hope they can remain rational..." Yun Zhong Mu couldn't help thinking as he closed the post.

At this time, in Ying Qi Workshop, they had really guessed it. Wu Ye was continuing to take inventory, while the Eagle Regiment had begun to help with the transfer of goods, transferring the inventoried warehouse materials to the new warehouse that Gai Shi Qi Ying had found after running around for a day. In order to be safe and save trouble, they did use teleportation scrolls for air transport, but there were so many goods in the warehouse that they had to be classified and sorted after being transported. The Eagle Regiment members were no longer those influential experts. They were all covered in dust and looked like laborers selling their strength.

"Boss!" At this time, a player from the third group suddenly went online. The Eagle Regiment still worked in three shifts, but the pitiful third group had been called up many times during their rest time to do this and that, so they were granted a good rest. So they hadn't changed shifts yet, but this time the third group's players took the initiative to contact Yong Yuan.

"What's the matter?" Yong Yuan was also a laborer at this time.

"The Ten Guild Alliance has disbanded." The person who came up was Qiu Ge, the leader of the third group.

"Oh? Where did the news come from?" Yong Yuan asked.

"The whole world knows it. It's Duo Mu and Mu Duo's report. Looking at the time, it seems that after all the warehouses were taken back by us, those guys went back, and then disbanded not long after," said Qiu Ge.

"What was the process?"

"The process was written simply. Yun Zhong Mu directly led a group of people to force their withdrawal. It can be said to be a violent dissolution," said Qiu Ge.

"This guy..." Yong Yuan sighed.

"What do we do next?" Qiu Ge asked.

"We take people's money and do their work. We don't need to think about what to do." When Yong Yuan said this in the channel, many people in the Eagle Regiment felt a burst of sorrow in their hearts. Although these semi-professional players lived much better than many full-time professional players, this feeling of being unable to help themselves was something that many full-time professional players didn't have. Many full-time professional players were working for themselves. If they didn't want to do the work or accept the task, they could throw their hands away with a magnificent gesture. But what about them? They had to find a way to grit their teeth and do the work assigned by the boss, Gai Shi Qi Ying, even if it meant fighting more than four thousand people. When they were killed, the boss's first concern was whether the equipment had been dropped...

"Then I'll go offline first!" Qiu Ge reported the news, and when he heard Yong Yuan say this, he also felt a bit dispirited. Yes! It was originally something that had nothing to do with them. Why bother so much? He was really working with professional ethics.

"Everyone continue!" Yong Yuan greeted. The conversation with Qiu Ge just now was in the mercenary channel. The Eagle Regiment players who were online now already knew the news, but they were all silent and didn't express any opinions. In fact, most of them didn't hate the Ten Guild Alliance. However, after this incident, the number of people who hated Qian Li Zui suddenly increased.

The night was peaceful. The next morning was the season for night owls to sleep, so nothing would happen. After noon, the Very Heaven players in both Cloudend and Moonnight cities went to the same place: the dungeon of Cloudend City. Because they all knew that their guild leader, Jian Gui, would be released from prison around this time. Jian Gui undoubtedly set a record in Parallel World with his 42 hours of imprisonment. But there was another feat that was even more magnificent. During these 42 hours, Jian Gui hadn't gone offline at all.

Bai Shi Jing Lun and Huo Ran Yi were ashamed. Bai Shi Jing Lun had 19 PK points, and Huo Ran Yi had 17. Their imprisonment times were 38 hours and 34 hours respectively. But because they had normally gone offline to eat, drink, and sleep, they had lost! They were surpassed by Jian Gui, and as they watched the recorder leave, they were still tearfully holding onto the iron bars, sending Jian Gui off together in the prison.

"You guys come out soon too." Jian Gui encouraged the two as he teleported out of the prison.

The weather was very good, and the sunlight was a bit dazzling, which made Jian Gui, who had been in the dark dungeon for a full 42 hours, a bit dazed. He squeezed his eyes hard and took a long time to adapt to the light. Then he saw what was in front of him: a dark mass of people at the stone steps at the entrance of the dungeon.

"Isn't the crisis already resolved!" Jian Gui was stunned. He was about to reach for his dagger, but soon several familiar faces flashed in front of him.

"He's out!" You Ge wasn't good at anything else, but he was quick with his mouth.

"Hard work!" Zhan Wu Shang patted him on the shoulder.

"This belongs to you." Yu Tian Shen Ming actually handed over a silk banner.

Jian Gui took it and looked at it. Four big characters were embroidered on it: Dungeon Pioneer! Jian Gui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he knew that this kind of thing wasn't produced by the system in the game. It was definitely made by players by hand, and the price was quite expensive. He really didn't know whether to accept it or throw it away.

Looking to the side again, Gu Fei, Han Jia Gongzi, and other old comrades were all there. Jian Nan You, Piao Liu, and all the new comrades who had joined during the city war were also there. Even Shui Shen Lu Ke was smiling at him from the side. What surprised him even more was that he even saw Yun Zhong Mu.

"Hahahaha! As expected of Boss Jian Gui, if you're going to be imprisoned, be imprisoned for 42 hours, and don't go offline even once, don't waste a minute!" Yun Zhong Mu took the initiative to meet him when he saw Jian Gui's gaze.

Jian Gui wouldn't forget people he had killed like Gu Fei. The Moonnight City incident was also a deep experience for him. He immediately recognized Yun Zhong Mu, and not only Yun Zhong Mu, but many people behind him were the passionate brothers who had been with him at that time.

"Boss Jian Gui, we're here to join you, don't despise us!" Yun Zhong Mu shouted loudly.

"What's wrong?" Jian Gui asked, puzzled.

"Hey, our Ten Guild Alliance has disbanded. I discussed it with my brothers, and only you, Boss Jian Gui, are worthy of us joining. Didn't we just come?" If Yun Zhong Mu's words were said by someone else, it would definitely make people feel very arrogant. But this was Yun Zhong Mu, the former leader of the strongest guild in the game. Ninety-nine point nine nine percent of people would think that even if his guild collapsed a hundred times, he would re-establish himself. No one would have thought that he would actually join another guild. The guild he joined would really be subconsciously considered very amazing.

"This... what exactly happened?" Jian Gui obviously didn't know too much.

"Come, come, let's find a place to sit down and talk slowly. We gathered so many people just to give you a welcome celebration," You Ge drilled out to maintain the scene.

"But..." Jian Gui hesitated, but still said, "I'm so sleepy, I want to go offline and sleep."

Everyone was stunned. Everyone had originally thought that since he could last for forty-two hours, he wouldn't mind lasting another hour or two, but they didn't expect that Jian Gui, who had just been released from prison, was also eager to go offline and rest. In fact, Jian Gui just had a stubbornness in his heart. If he didn't serve his sentence cleanly, he wouldn't be able to relax even if he went offline. So he gritted his teeth and did it all in one breath. At this time, his ease was a bit like Yun Zhong Mu had just been liberated from the Ten Guild Alliance. When a person relaxed, naturally drowsiness and fatigue would all come.

"This... then you should go and rest quickly!" You Ge didn't know what to say. He hadn't gone offline to rest for forty-two hours, uh, actually more than that. Forty-two hours was just in prison. Jian Gui had been active in the game before that. So it was easily over fifty! So that was someone who hadn't gone offline to rest for fifty hours. Who would dare to persuade him not to go offline to rest and continue to engage in completely unimportant celebratory activities with everyone?

"Okay, then I'll go offline first. We'll talk again later if anything happens?" Jian Gui patted Yun Zhong Mu.

"Rest well." Yun Zhong Mu smiled.

Jian Gui left. A large group of people originally wanted to surround him. But how many people in the game could catch up with Jian Gui's speed? Not even Gu Fei could, even if Jian Gui had dropped two levels now.

After a swift journey, everyone only saw a trail of Jian Gui's afterimage.

"Looks like he's sleepy." Zhan Wu Shang nodded.

"Nonsense!" Yu Tian Shen Ming despised.

"Who was it who said they were going to come and do this?" Gu Fei asked.

No one dared to answer. Qian Li Zui was asking the question. What if he wasn't satisfied with the answer and killed them?

"Disperse, disperse!" You Ge waved his hand, and everyone dispersed in a mess.

"There are still two in prison!" Yu Tian Shen Ming reminded.

"Those two are sleeping well, but it's not worth us fighting to welcome them, right!" You Ge said.

"That's right, that's right." Amidst a chorus of agreement, the protagonists also dispersed. At this moment, everyone didn't have anything substantial to do. Yun Zhong Mu had already brought his people to Cloudend City, just waiting for Jian Gui to go online again so that everyone could join the guild together. As for Very Heaven, the recruitment work was still continuing. Yun Xiang was still very down-to-earth and capable. When the elites were away, he presided over the recruitment work with great success. But he didn't expect that after the elites went out for a round, the Ten Guild Alliance was disbanded, and the guild leader, Yun Zhong Mu, would directly bring a large group of people to join them. Yun Xiang was completely convinced! Experts were experts, and the difference was the difference.

=================================================

Jian Gui was finally released! Students who have been looking forward to this day for a long time, hurry up and cast the monthly tickets in your hands! You don't have much time left. After this half hour, your love for Jian Gui will be halved... because there are no more double monthly tickets~
