Chapter 410 Extraordinary moves
【Lingbao is still so cute. 】
I feel like Fu Xuan is right. I feel like Qing Que is indeed capable of taking over the position of Grand Astrologer. Then Fu Xuan can rest assured and pry Jing Yuan's position away.
【Otherwise, after I finished reading it, I was almost moved to tears by you. 】
[I feel like Lingke is pretty nice to Luca.]
[After all, they are all Beloberg's people, so we must take good care of them.]
-
Finally, Qingque pressed the play button.
On a spaceship, a red-haired man was leaning against the window, looking at the misty starry sky.
"Believe me, with your skills, you'll definitely make a name for yourself even if you participate in the Star Tour. Prize money, fame... you can earn more than others can in their entire lives with just a wave of your hand!"
Hearing this, Igor forced a smile and said, "Of course I'm happy to win...but I hope others can listen to my post-match speech even more."
Another man walked into the camera. He was wearing a gorgeous suit and had an Interstellar Peace Company ID card hanging around his neck.
"I know what you want to do. I've heard what happened in your hometown.
In fact, many worlds have been attacked by Nanook's army of lunatics. So I have to remind you that the audience paid for the thrill, not the alarmist rhetoric.
Igor, you're a miracle. There haven't been more than ten players from remote planets who have made it to the Pierpoint finals. "Happiness, boy!"
"I'm just a toy to please them." Igor slowly raised his metal arm. "Look at what I did... I cut off my good arm and replaced it with the company's prosthetic arm. All this is just to make the competition more dangerous and exciting."
The next moment, his arms dropped helplessly, and Igor's voice lost its high pitch. "If my mother saw me like this... she would definitely be very sad."
The company employee patted Igor on the shoulder and said, "If your mother saw the prize money you won now, she would understand you!"
After a moment, Igor calmed down. He looked at the company employees seriously and asked, "Can my bonus buy an army?"
The company employee jokingly said, "To buy a fully equipped mercenary army, you'd have to defend your title for at least twenty times and accept countless endorsements. Can you hold out until then? Can your hometown hold out until then?"
The video ends with Igor's silence.
Everyone watching the video fell silent.
【…】
【…】
【well! 】
[To be honest, the most painful thing about this kind of story is its truthfulness.]
[It's so real that it makes people feel depressed, and so real that it makes people feel so damn real.]
-
In the depressing atmosphere, Ling Ke broke the calm.
Ling Ke said that she would help at the Taibu Division, and Qingque would work hard to repair the entire Yuzhao.
Just as Xing and Luca were about to leave, Luca stopped Xing and said, "You go back first. I want to go shopping alone."
Xing looked disdainful, "Woo woo woo, you despise me~"
Luca was speechless. "I should have prescribed you some medicine at Dandingsi just now. The doctor told me to walk around the city and see more of the world."
If I walk around the streets alone like this a few more times, maybe I can overcome my fear of big cities... When I first arrived in Luofu a few days ago, I was really scared.
"Alas... After all, I'll have to be like Igor, competing in tournaments all over the galaxy for Beloberg. I can't be scared and hallucinate every time! Hahahaha!"
The whole incident has come to a temporary end.
……
On Xianzhou Street, Luca got lost...
He stood confused on the street, ready to randomly pick a lucky audience member to ask for directions.
He immediately fell in love with Yan Qing, who was also enjoying the breeze at the dock.
The topic started with asking for directions and continued to expand, and the two sides gradually became familiar with each other.
As he spoke, Luca taught Yanqing a way to overcome fear.
“Find an empty, deserted place and shout out your opponent’s name until you truly believe that you can defeat the foe that scares you.”
"Haha, what an interesting idea! Okay, let's do it!" Yan Qing smiled. "I! Will definitely win! The one standing on the ring in the end will definitely be me!"
Luca coughed twice and raised his voice, "I! Luca! I will definitely win! I will definitely defeat Yan Qing!"
“Ha…hahahahahaha!”
"Come on, little brother, shout a few times too~ Let's cheer ourselves up!"
Yan Qing was a little confused, "Ah? I want one too?"
"Come on, shout with me! I can definitely defeat Yan Qing!"
Yan Qing hesitated for a few seconds before shouting, "I can definitely defeat Yan Qing!"
"Yan Qing is definitely not my opponent!"
"Yan Qing is definitely not my opponent!"
Then the two looked at each other and laughed, "Hahahahahahaha."
[This is so fucking embarrassing.]
I could carve out a three-bedroom apartment with my big toe.
I'm really looking forward to seeing how awkward Luca and Yanqing's meeting will be.
【Hahahahaha. 】
[Help! This is so embarrassing!]
I didn't expect Luca to be such a social expert.
【6666666. 】
-
The melancholy on Yan Qing's face was less severe. "You're right. After shouting a few times, I feel much more confident."
Luca raised his eyebrows. "I wasn't kidding! Although I haven't seen much of the world, I do have a wealth of experience in combat. I hope I can help you!"
"Thank you, Luca. It's getting late. I should go get ready for the tournament."
"Brother, you haven't told me your name yet?"
"Just call me Leng Feng. It means 'cold sword' in Xianzhou language. See you again, Luca."
Luca thought about it carefully, "Leng Feng, what a good man with a cold name."
[Immortal Boat Wolf Warrior, right?]
【Killing me. 】
【Why not call it Invincible Swordsman 123? 】
【Yanqing: Actually, my sword's tip is tilted to the left.】
-
Next, we entered the competition stage.
The opponent to be challenged this time is Potio. Under the leadership of Xing, Luca begins to look for opponents for the knockout match.
The first opponent was a few piggy banks. Luca had no problem and easily scored 200 points.
However, the next opponent is particularly dangerous.
Luca received a message from the organizing committee.
A player named Ruojin invited Luca to a tournament, and Topa commissioned the organizing committee to invite Luca to become the company's spokesperson.
However, Luca still had some grudges against the company, so he chose to go to Golden Man Lane on his own initiative and rejected Topa's proposal.
Topa was not angry. Instead, he kindly reminded Luca to be extra careful with the man named Ruojin, as he had many tricks up his sleeve.
After expressing their gratitude, Luca and Xing returned to the players' lounge.
Before the two of them sat down, they saw Ka Meili hurriedly push open the door, "Something big has happened!"
Luca quickly signaled to Camille to calm down, "Ah? What happened? Don't be anxious, talk slowly..."
"I brought the off-site newspaper, take a look!"
After that, Luca took the newspaper and started reading. On the front page was a photo of Luca and Topa meeting.
Xing was also a little puzzled. Isn’t this speed too fast?
And in the newspapers, many people who are unaware of the truth have started typing frantically on their keyboards.
Basically, it says that Luca has created an "anti-company" persona for himself to win the favor of the Xianzhou people, but secretly cooperates with the company, being both a hypocrite and a hypocrite!
Someone even revealed the story of Beloberg and Topa collecting debts.
These sharp remarks are just the tip of the iceberg.
Ka Meili said helplessly, "Go check it out online. A lot of people are talking about this whole 'Luca's reputation is ruined, and it's all because of a company lackey' thing. It's making a huge fuss!"
Of course, although Camille is still an intern, she is a reporter after all. She certainly knows the importance of public opinion to a public figure, but Luca obviously did not think of this.
What he was more concerned about was why everything happened so fast!
"This... Let's not even mention that everything here is fabricated. Miss Topper and I only met less than an hour ago, right? How did this get published in the newspaper?"
Indeed, everything developed too quickly, as if someone had deliberately prepared for it long ago.
Luca suspected that it was Topa's doing.
However, Carmelie argued, "No, it has nothing to do with Miss Toppa. The company doesn't need to do this. I'm afraid the mastermind behind this has prepared many versions of the report and is just waiting for the right opportunity to release it..."
Ka Meili spoke the truth, "If you hadn't gone to meet Miss Topa, I'm afraid they would have chosen a different report.
"Player Luka, did you offend someone? Why would someone choose this time of day to do something like this?"
"How could I possibly provoke..." Luca suddenly realized, "No, could this be a trick?"
"What do you mean?"
"Miss Topa said that my next opponent, Ruojin, is very good at high-level off-board tactics. This is probably his handiwork."
Xing's mouth twitched. He didn't even ask who the master was. "I'll go find him and ask for an explanation."
Ka Meili stopped Xing and said, "To be honest, facing the overwhelming amount of quotations, I don't have any particularly good way to deal with it...
I'll try to debunk the rumor first, but the speed of debunking it will always be slower than the speed of spreading it—that guy is taking advantage of this and wants you to drown in public opinion."
[Luckily, there's a girl named Ka Meili who studies journalism.]
[As I said before, art originates from life, but is higher than life.]
【It’s all so real! 】
【So the role of Kameili is reflected. 】
【Studying journalism! 】
-
"Oh, what a headache." However, Luca was obviously too inexperienced in the field of public opinion, and said naively,
"But it doesn't matter. As long as I defeat Shuojin fairly in the next match, the audience will naturally know that everything he said was a lie."
I don't need to watch the rest of the story, I already know what's going to happen.
[Belloberg is still too young.]
[Right? Luca hasn't really seen what a keyboard warrior is.]
Looking at the optimistic Luca, Ka Meili knows that the water of the Internet is too deep.
"Player Luka, I'm afraid things won't go as smoothly as you think. Once a negative impression is formed, it's not easy to recover."
"Okay, Miss Camille, don't be so pessimistic. How could I, Luca, be so easily defeated by an outside trick? Everything will be fine!" Luca took a deep breath and said, "I'm going to go out for some fresh air. We'll come back later to discuss this."
Camille looked at Luca's back as he left and didn't know what to say. She shook her head helplessly.
Luca had already arrived on the deck of the Jingfeng, but he didn't realize that the eyes that looked at him were full of malice.
"Look, isn't that Luca?"
"It's really Luca, I used to be his fan!"
"Haha, now you have a criminal record for having liked Luca."
Luca was walking slowly when he heard someone mention his name. He stopped and asked, "Are they just talking about me?"
"He's looking over here, don't be so loud!"
Luca felt a little disappointed, but he quickly cheered himself up.
But those harsh words just can't be shaken off.
"I didn't expect Luca to be such a person!"
"Luca's true colors have been revealed."
"I've known for a long time that Luca is not a good person."
【As expected of you, Mihuyou! 】
【It's time to give Lucca some city shock. 】
This is public opinion, this is what netizens are like nowadays, the masses who never know the truth and only care about making a fuss.
[This is how audiences are. They are easily misled by the information they endorse online!]
【This is the era of self-media! 】
-
Not only that.
Other viewers not only teased Luca, but also maliciously speculated about Luca's background, cultural level, and education, and began to make up stories for Luca in their own minds.
I don’t know when it started, but Luca’s vision became illusory, and there were more and more spectators around him.
However, these spectators were all yelling, "Luka quit the game."
Luca covered his head in pain, "I don't understand, what did I do wrong!!"
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself inexplicably in the center of the stage, surrounded by countless televisions.
[Fuck, this scene made me lose my sanity.]
My blood pressure instantly rose.
Suddenly every TV screen lit up and eyes appeared.
At the same time, a sound was made:
"Luca, tell us how much the company pays you."
Luca yelled, "I didn't take a penny!"
"The Strategic Investment Department has always had evil intentions towards Beloberg. Luca, are you planning to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune?"
"Nonsense! I've never been unfaithful to Belloborg!"
"It's a pity that no one will believe you. They will only believe the truth I convey to them."
The voice gradually became clearer, and a person appeared in front of Luca.
It was Ruojin who initiated the invitational tournament.
"Who are you? Ruojin?" Luca asked reluctantly, covering his aching head.
"Nice to meet you." Ruojin smiled with a dagger hidden in his face. "We should probably meet again on the field later... Or will you tell me? Are you going to be tactful and withdraw from the competition?"
