Chapter 657: The People’s War

Hu.. when the match ended, everyone heaved a sigh of relief, even Team Blue Rains fans.

This match had been as brilliant as it had been intense. From the first clash between the two teams, the fighting never stopped until there was only one player remaining. This sort of match werent commonly seen. The fierceness of this seasons finals made the entire crowd feel like it was worth their money to watch it live.

7.5 to 2. Team Samsaras lead seemed quite large. However, players familiar with the Glory scene knew that these points didnt have the same amount of weight as a sport like football. One side leading by five points after a single round wasnt a dealbreaker in Glory. After all, following the competitive scoring rules, the team competition was worth 4 points. Along with a few points obtained in the individual competition and group arena, this difference in points was actually quite common. The finals would be decided by the total points obtained in the home and away matches, so this difference didnt mean the competition was over.

The post-match interviews after the first round of finals were like fire. Team Blue Rains captain Yu Wenzhou was as calm as ever. He praised his opponents as well as the performance of his players. He expressed his regret for being the first one to die in the team competition: Because of a few reasons that everyone knows about, Im often the enemy teams priority. Maybe I should have considered being the teams reserve player and substituting in occasionally to prevent our opponents from finding any opportunities to focus me.

Whether his words were true or not, Yu Wenzhous relaxed attitude could still be seen. He was an experienced player who had passed through many storms. A 2 to 7.5 point disparity didnt make him feel too much pressure.

As for Huang Shaotians interview, he once again tested the writing speed of the reporters and their recording devices battery life. They would need to search through a lengthy speech later to dig up valuable information. It would put their skill as a reporter to the test.

But the most important interview was the one that gave them the greatest headache.

Zhou Zekai was without a doubt the MVP of todays match. Even though Team Samsaras Lu Boyuan had been the first to open up the match in the team competition, Zhou Zekai was still the deciding player in the end.

After a bunch of mm, ah, oh, The reporters finally obtained a few relatively long responses. One of the questions that they obviously needed to ask was how he felt towards their victory, to which Zhou Zekai replied Very happy.

Another lengthier response was Zhou Zekais comment towards Huang Shaotians performance, which he expressed was Very outstanding.

Someone asked Zhou Zekai for more details and his feelings towards Huang Shaotians trash talking.

Zhou Zekai fell silent for quite awhile before responding: No time to read!

That was about all they managed to unearth from Zhou Zekai. They would be able to get more information out of the other members of Team Samsara, but most of their answers were just decorous remarks, praising their opponents or their team. When the reporters asked about Team Samsaras skill points, the players would simply smile, but wouldnt say anything.

After the post-match interviews ended, the stream showed a few highlights from the match. Then, the commentator and guest conducted a detailed analysis of the match. Ye Xiu obviously didnt need to listen to the content of this analysis. The analysis of the commentator and guest couldnt compare to their own analysis.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk Wei Chen clicked his tongue. He didnt say anything. His hands and head seemed to be focused on the game, but his heart clearly wasnt in it. His character was just running around in circles, not doing anything. His mind still lingered on the match!

Ye Xiu also went back to the game. He soon received a message from Loulan Slash: A boss spawned!

No way. How could it be such a coincidence? A boss spawned right when the match ended? Ye Xiu replied.

Loulan Slash sent him an ashamed emoji: The match was too intense. I forgot to pay attention to the game. It was info we received from awhile ago

The boss is still there? Ye Xiu asked.

Still there. I just checked. Loulan Slash replied.

Then lets hurry! Ye Xiu immediately called Tang Rou and Steamed Bun. Those two were still watching the highlights from the match. When they heard his call, they went back to the game.

Which boss? Ye Xiu asked Loulan Slash for more details!

Darkness Palaces Night Streak Loulan Slash replied.

Ah, that guy! Ye Xiu was excited. Night Streak was a Level 70 wild boss. It was Darkness Palaces secret protector, an expert in subterfuge and assassination. Among the player classes, he would be categorized as an Assassin.

Im on my way. Whats the situation over there? Ye Xiu asked.

Currently, none of the guilds have made any movements. However, a few players have grouped up to kill the wild boss, but theyre hovering between life and death. Lets hurry! Loulan Slash was quite excited. His guild probably hadnt gotten a Level 70 boss yet.

The other guilds might be on their way too. Have your people be on the lookout. Ye Xiu said.

Should we start acting now? Loulan Slash asked.

Having many bully the few wont be an issue. Ye Xiu replied.

Loulan Slash immediately arranged his troops. Ye Xiu asked Wei Chen: Night Streak has spawned. Did you guys get the information?

My side? No Wei Chen checked his messages. He looked at the guild chat. It was filled with the guild celebrating their victory. Tonight was, without a doubt, a holiday for Samsaras fans. It wasnt just their own guild chat. Samsara had included the global chat with them. They acted like Samsara had already won the championships.

The fans of the other teams couldnt keep watching.

Especially Tyrannys, Tiny Herbs, and Blue Rains. These teams had already won the championships before. Their fans were looking down on Samsaras, regarding them as country bumpkins. Samsaras fans werent looking at the big picture. They had only finished playing the first round of the finals. How could that be considered worth celebrating for?

Excellent Eras fans also wanted to say a few words, but Excellent Eras performance in the regular season was too embarrassing. The smarter ones shut their mouths and endured it. A few jumped out and argued about Excellent Era, which attracted a lot of attention. They were immediately met with ridicule.

All sorts of insults were thrown in the global chat. In this virtual world, it was always easy to make sparks fly. It couldnt be stopped either. Being able to say whatever you wanted was one of the charms of an online game.

Wei Chen finally received a message. He checked it. It was unexpectedly a call for him to PK. The dispute between the fans of different teams had gone up a level. The friction had been continuously rising. That night, the arrogance of Samsaras fans had reached the peak.

The guilds couldnt stop it from happening. This was the peoples war. At this moment, as symbols of their team in the game, the Club guilds could only stand on their fans side. Any burden or losses from this large-scale PK was something that they couldnt ignore. The will of the people was everything.

The fires of war continued to reach new heights. Even Wei Chen, the group leader of Samsaras second elite group, had been called to battle. The elite groups were the peak powers in the Club guild. They would only set out for important battles.

Im going Wei Chen was solemn as he replied to the call. From the rapid scrolling in the global chat, he could already predict how bitter this war would be. No matter how strong his character was, he would certainly drown within that ocean of people.

The fires of war spread from the fans of the teams, who stood at the top in the game. A guild like Heavenly Justice could only watch as a spectator. Ye Xiu quickly helped Loulan Slash recognize how good of an opportunity this was. Loulan Slash continued to dispatch troops over.

Everywhere they walked was a battlefield.

This was a war among the people. At the same time, it was a paradise for scrap pickers. The fans of these powerful teams were relatively high-end players. When they fought, good equipment would drop everywhere. Even non-professional scrap pickers would join in for this opportunity. However, how could the PKers just let scrap pickers take their equipment? The scrap pickers also got dragged into the war.

An element of equipment soon added into the war between the fans.

Ye Xiu didnt care about any of this. He picked the shortest route to Darkness palace. Lord Grims colorful equipment made others want to vomit at the sight of it. No one was crazy enough to want to fight him. His Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was a Silver weapon, so many people would covet it, but Ye Xiu wasnt so stupid as to show it off to everyone. He obviously hid it in his bag. As a result, from the outside, it looked like Lord Grim didnt have a weapon equipped. His character was also equipped with a set of garbage equipment. It didnt matter if others had heard of the famous Lord Grim. No one caused him trouble.

Tang Rou and Steamed Buns situation were similar. They werent members of any of the top guilds. Their equipment was below-average. They were practically invisible in the current environment. The three quickly met with each other midway and headed over together.

Halfway through, Loulan Slash received a message. A guild had started making movements in Darkness Palace.

Which guild is it? Ye Xiu asked.

Conquering Clouds. Loulan Slash said.

Conquering Clouds.. Ye Xiu repeated.

Even though Conquering Clouds was also a Club guild, in terms of the fight for wild bosses, they were a relatively low presence.

In the Alliance, Team Conquering Clouds had performed quite well in the first half of the season. They had reached eighth place, but after Sun Xiang transferred to Excellent Era, Team Conquering Clouds quickly dropped and ended up in fifteenth place. It was hard to even consider them as middle-tier team in the pro scene. Their guild was certainly more powerful than your average player guild, but they were far from being at Blue Brook Guilds or Herb Gardens level. However, arranging a few elite groups to kill a wild boss wasnt a problem for them. For a lot of player guilds, even if you threw an uncontested wild boss to them, they still wouldnt be able to take it down.

Thinking about this point, Ye Xiu was a bit worried for Heavenly Justice. Heavenly Justice had started as a player guild. He also didnt know how good Loulan Slashs elite groups were. What if they controlled the field, but Heavenly Justice still wasnt able to take down the boss?

When Ye Xiu asked, Loulan Slash cried: God, dont look down on us!!

Okay okay. Thats good. Ill be there soon. Give me a group to lead. Ill take care of Conquering Cloud. You take the boss. Ye Xiu said.
