Chapter 220: Public Enemy
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Exodus Bone Dragon, stay put until you’ve being attacked to death,” Lin Jie ordered using the Demonic Dragon Crown. He then watched the Exodus Bone Dragon being torn into pieces by two angles and magic crossbows, its debris and broken bones fell from the sky!
—System notice: The threat of City of Light has been removed!
Although the threat was removed, the crazy players had no intention of stopping! Lin Jie moved all the treasures in the sub-shrines of the Dark Shrine at once. So how high was the value in total?
Simply put, most of the equipment on an ordinary player was Silver, and a slightly superior player could get Gold equipment. However, only the Gold equipment, which dropped by the death of a superior Boss were luxury items! Having Silver equipment was the mainstream.
The probability of dropping a piece of Gold equipment was about 20% if a team tried very hard to kill a non-first cleared Boss. But how could one piece of equipment be sufficient for the team to allocate amongst the members? Hence, wearing a set of Gold equipment was a godlike existence.
But now, Gold equipment was dropping to the ground like free mud! This was like pennies from heaven! Because of this, the players’ capabilities in the game had greatly improved!
But Lin Jie did not expect that this practice was not allowed by the system!
Indeed, there were many treasure gates in the Moratti Shrine, and if one intruded into the gates, they would be rewarded with the corresponding items. However, like the three secret places, the Dark Shrine also had a “fatigue point” setting. For example, Lin Jie had 100 fatigue points, and 20 points were required to open each gate. In this case, he could only take up to 5 items from the 5 corresponding gates. This was also the original intention of the system.
However, Lin Jie used the Exodus Bone Dragon as a tool to take away all the items after he got the Demonic Dragon Crown! This was not unacceptable. If he transported these goods back to City of Light safely, the system would send the diplomats from the Guild of Light to negotiate with him and temporarily prohibit these high-level goods from entering the market by sealing them up. They would then allow them to enter the market at the right time and when the price was the most mature.
This setting could protect the gaming process without damaging the players’ interests.
But... Lin Jie’s action of spreading around the Gold equipment was totally beyond the system’s expectation!
A huge number of Holy Church Paladins appeared while the other players were busy picking up the equipment. Lin Jie and Zheng Ziliang were arranging for the collection of the Bone Dragon Skeleton which had fallen all over the ground!
Captain Carol yelled, “Humans of alternate realms, please stop! These spoils are supposed to belong to the Guild of Light!”
“F*ck you, they are mine if I grabbed them!”
“Return everything back to you? You can be arrogant normally, but now, get lost!”
Everyone responded angrily because it was money dropping from the sky! They could get a few thousand dollars of cash earnings by picking up one piece of equipment. Who could resist such a good deal?
When the Paladin was going to take tough measures, Cigarette Butt who followed the crowd to grab the equipment shouted, “Kill the NPCs!” Players responded quickly and used their skills to kill the Paladin in seconds.
The players killed the NPC! This incident provoked the Holy Church and the Empire to join their forces to suppress the players! They even invited the Space Magician, who had been lurking for a hundred years, to transfer all the players to the prison for two days as a punishment!
Lin Jie did not expect this either!
What happened next caught him by surprise again – all the items seized by the players in the battle were taken over by the Paladins. Although the announcement was posted that “these items are only kept temporarily and will be returned to their original owners,” the angry players still protested on the official website.
The official website was very calm, after all, they did not harm the interests of players, but to ensure the process of the game. If these items flew into the market too early, there was a high possibility of creating a large number of middle-grade or even superior-grade professional Living job gamers and also could cause the drop in original level difficulty of the War of Light dungeon-group. Besides, these items would be more valuable at the right time!
However, the players did not understand, and they burst into a storm of abuse, expressing their anger and discontent! Just at this moment, a pretty player named “Shallow Smile” posted a series of pictures – the picture of Lin Jie falling from the sky, embraced by Zheng Ziliang!
This picture evoked endless reverie, not about their sexual orientation, but about the reason behind the incident! Players who were imprisoned for “no reason” could not wait to find a scapegoat for their two-day prison life, and Lin Jie appeared at that very moment.
As he was not wearing a helmet, his name “Fu Sheng” was all over the forum! All kinds of conspiracy theories, verbal attacks, and abuses flooded the forum as if without him, everyone could have safely gotten those items without been imprisoned.
Who was Fu Sheng? Nobody knew!
Because of the low profile of Lin Jie’s name, this attracted numerous players’ siege! No one dared to challenge the strong, but people were happy to sprinkle some ice on the drowning weak.
Looking at the abusive posts in the forum, Zheng Ziliang and Baili Changcheng were the first to fight back by employing a large number of paid internet trolls. As a result, the incident was getting worse and worse! Lin Jie, who originally intended to suppress the incident using the name of “Lone Wolf,” dared not act rashly.
“F*ck, I’m finally released from prison.”
“It’s all Fu Sheng’s fault! That son of a b*tch!”
“Troublemaker! He’s a good-for-nothing who only knows how to make trouble!”
When Lin Jie came out of prison, the crowd released at the same time was still abusing him! Besides him, it was the Warrior who kept calling him “bastard”!
“I’m planning to set up a ‘Killing Fu Sheng’ guild, anyone’s with me?” That Warrior suddenly patted his head and thought of an interesting idea!
Many people looked at him in silence and turned away, but there were always people who liked to hit anyone when they were down. They chimed in easily and cursed Lin Jie with filthy language happily.
“Jie, I didn’t expect you to be the target for all.” Zheng Ziliang, who was released from the prison together with Lin Jie, sneered.
Lin Jie shrugged. “I don’t care, let’s go.”
“Go where?”
“To take my things back and...” Lin Jie’s voice was gloomy and indifferent, “Clear those irritating voices.”
They walked towards the Holy Church. The City of Light was extremely crowded as there were too many people released at once.
“Did your mom accidentally feed you with too much sh*t when she gave birth to you? So you buttock-face bastard could spray sh*t all around?” A familiar and savage voice came from afar.
“Are you even qualified to swear at people? Look at your shabby Bronze equipment! Did you just claim that you picked up 3 pieces of Gold equipment but was confiscated by the Paladin because of Fu Sheng? That’s hilarious! Did you fap too much last night? Stop daydreaming!”
“B*tch! I think you’re grown with a b*tch face!”
Qiu Yuan stood on the street with her hands on her hips, scolded the Warrior, who wanted to start up the “Kill Fu Sheng” guild, with absolutely no image. The Warrior was “No Paradise.” He scolded the whole family of Fu Sheng while recruiting members who liked to cause trouble. And they started to scold each other as he happened to meet Qiu Yuan, who was on her way to visit Lin Jie with Bu Yi.
Bu Yi was standing behind Qiu Yuan with her eyebrows slightly wrinkled. As she was well-nurtured, she could not stand the dirty words that jumped out from Qiu Yuan’s mouth.
“What’s wrong with cursing that bastard? That’s none of your business, b*tch! You can look for me if you’re thirsty and I’ll definitely f*ck you until you’re obedient!” No Paradise scoffed outrageously.
Qiu Yuan was going to scold him back, but Bu Yi held her hand.
“Don’t stop me, baby. I have to curse him!” Qiu Yuan waved her hands and signaled Bu Yi to stand behind her. “Cover your ears just in case I teach you bad things. Damn, today I’m gonna curse you till your death...”
Bu Yi shook her head and stood in front of Qiu Yuan.
This girl was the standard pretty and innocent type. No Paradise laughed and made fun of her, “Sis, do you like me?”
Bu Yi looked at him and said word by word, “F*ck you!”
No Paradise was stunned.
Qiu Yuan was stunned.
Lin Jie, who just reached, was also stunned... He had known Bu Yi for 7 years in his previous life, and she had not cursed a single word before!
Bu Yi turned around and smiled at Qiu Yuan, “Little Yuan, I’ll help you to scold him!”
Qiu Yuan rolled her sleeves up, arrogantly. “That’s my good wife!”
No Paradise was angry, but when he was about to take action he felt pain in his throat. Before he could react, his head felt on the ground.
Blood Light Multi-Slash!
-1,728!
-1,625!
Lin Jie let go the corpse which was about to fall, and said, “Cursing will only make your HP drop.”
Qiu Yuan and Bu Yi were surprised by Lin Jie’s appearance. However, Qiu Yuan suddenly shouted, “Did you just kill him inside the city? You’re nuts! Run out of the city and hide quickly, or you’ll be caught by the Paladin!”
Yet, it was too late!
Killing in the city violated the most basic laws. In a flash, dozens of Paladins had arrived and surrounded the crowd with the typical unscientific speed of the system!
“Fu Sheng! You’re arrested because you have killed a commoner inside the city!” the knight yelled.
Many players surrounded them. Fu Sheng? Wasn’t he the man recently under the spotlight?
A dragon roared out of the air while the knight was about to come forward! They were shocked and stepped back a few steps!
Lin Jie smiled with his Broken Blade in hand. “Who dares to arrest me?”
