Chapter 38: Redeeming Draw Opportunities

Su Sheng saw the friend notification and was genuinely a bit puzzled.

He had blocked friend requests, so without deliberately checking, he wouldn't know anyone had applied to be his friend.

Over time, they get automatically ignored.

After all, when he previously rose onto the Level Ranking List, a bunch of inexplicable people added him as friends; after hiding their nicknames, he blocked friend requests.

Thus, when adding his parents and Huan Jie, he sent the requests himself; now Su Sheng's friend list, aside from Huan Jie and his parents, contains only the group of Huakai's girls.

He hasn't added Kong Lang or Su Sheng either.

Employee ID 001?

Such a strange nickname gave Su Sheng a suspicion.

He then accepted the friend request.

"Dear Mo Wen Qianchen player, hello, I am an official customer service representative of Teng Long Company, Employee ID 001. As for the authenticity of my identity, you can verify it at any time via the official hotline."

After accepting the friend request, the other party immediately sent a Private Chat message.

Seeing this, Su Sheng felt relieved; it was indeed the case.

After all, the only ones who could bypass the request filter, add him as a friend, and bear such an odd game nickname, are official personnel.

As for the other party's purpose, Su Sheng also had a rough guess; after all, he hadn't missed the top-trending post on the forum.

"Hello."

Su Sheng replied.

"I am contacting you this time because of that forum post questioning whether you are cheating."

"Whether I'm cheating or not, you guys should know clearly."

"Correct, we are absolutely certain you are not cheating."

"However, with many voices grinding gold, faced with the players' doubts, our company must provide some reasonable answers."

"Therefore, I am here to request your consent; we plan to disclose a bit of your game information."

"Of course, we respect players' personal privacy; if you disagree, we will abandon this plan."

"Furthermore, we are not disclosing for free; after you agree, we can, at our discretion and according to the scope you permit, provide compensation."

Seeing this, Su Sheng lightly licked his lips: "If I choose full disclosure, could you give me a Divine Artifact?"

"…"

Obviously, Su Sheng's move left the other side completely stumped.

"This… you should know it's impossible."

Heh heh, Su Sheng gave a slight grin; he naturally knew it was impossible.

"Then what level of disclosure do you need? And how much compensation can you offer?" Su Sheng asked formally.

"Hmm… it's up to you, but it's best to provide some key information to be truly persuasive… for example, your Hidden Class."

Su Sheng then thought briefly: "What about the compensation?"

"What do you need? Level? Quests? Or Gold Coins?"

"We can compensate at our discretion for any of those."

"How about that spin wheel last time?" Su Sheng thought, licking his lips.

"…"

"Hold on, I don't have authority over this; let me consult the higher-ups."

The other side was left speechless again.

After a while, the other party finally replied.

"Alright, but only one key piece of information, and it can be used for a draw only once, with a maximum of three times."

"Fine, then disclose the Hidden Class and the Dragon Scale Shield; of course, the class can only be roughly disclosed, and my Bottom Card remains undisclosed."

"I can explain that this class has methods to boost attack, defense, and speed, that's all."

"I believe these two key pieces of information already explain everything."

This was also what Su Sheng was pondering while the other side was consulting.

"Hold on…"

A moment later.

"Alright, based on the assessment, these two key pieces of information already clarify many things."

"Moreover, these two pieces of information can grant you two draw opportunities."

Hearing that, Su Sheng naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Alright."

"Okay, the information you agreed to disclose will be posted on the forum."

"The spin wheel draw will reset its entry after you log in tomorrow."

"Wish you a pleasant game."

After that, the other side fell silent.

He smacked his lips; Su Sheng was already looking forward to tomorrow's draw, then allocated his level‑16 attribute points and continued leveling.

Comparing his experience and playtime, Su Sheng guessed that reaching level 17 today was unlikely.

…

On the other side.

A flash of golden light; the First Guild's Universal President, Shen Wang, was now level 15.

Immediately, Shen Wang swapped in the prepared level‑15 gear.

Clad in blue‑green level‑15 armor, plus the purple weapon from the sole quest, which cannot yet be replaced.

This is already the most luxurious equipment available at this stage.

After all, Su Sheng still has a wristguard that's just a plain white board.

Afterwards, Shen Wang glanced at the Level Ranking List and found himself still in second place.

Who exactly is that hidden player in first place? Could it be Mo Wen Qianchen?

As for Qiancheng Leng Shao, the fact that he had a fight in Newbie Village with Mo Wen Qianchen is basically known among the major guilds.

After all, even among top-tier guilds, they have their own circle.

So everyone is somewhat puzzled whether the player with the hidden nickname is really Mo Wen Qianchen.

Looking at the Level Ranking List, aside from one or two newcomers, it's basically all veterans who came from the ranks of heroes.

Even those newcomer dark horses have basically been recruited by the major guilds.

And the only hidden nickname player is still a Top Rank.

However, whether the Top Rank is Mo Wen Qianchen or not, the player Mo Wen Qianchen is currently being watched by everyone.

After all, the incident of one person charging a thousand, the hacker brother, hasn't blown over, although the official has already given a response.

But many players aren't buying it.

"This guy, levels up really fast."

Shen Wang, feeling somewhat emotional, turned off the Level Ranking List.

"Boss, it seems the official gave another response; I went to check those crazy attributes." Shen Xiao noticed the activity on the official forum.

"Huh?"

Shen Wang also opened the game forum.

Teng Long Company: Response to the 'cheat' incident.

"We, while seeking the other party's consent, have disclosed two key pieces of information to prove that they are not using cheats."

First, the currently unique epic equipment in the game.

Below is attached the attribute screenshot of the Dragon Scale Shield.

Furthermore, Teng Long Company explained that this is the complete reward for the unique limited-time quest in each town.

Each town has a unique limited-time quest; if completed with 100% progress, one can solidify the dungeon and obtain an epic item of their own profession.

Unfortunately, all the towns' unique limited-time quests have already been taken, and only this player has achieved 100% completion.

Everyone fell silent.

It turns out that the hero who solidified the dungeon in Wutong Town is precisely this hacker brother whom they doubted.

And the other players who had completed the unique time‑limited quest mostly stomped their feet and beat their chests, feeling that they had missed out on an epic piece of equipment.
