Chapter 478: Empathy Failure

Just as the many "melon‑eating" players were scattered about.

Even the members of Yanhuang Guild were a bit lax.

Suddenly…

A disturbance broke out among the Baihu Main City players queuing to enter and exit.

"What's going on?"

Chen Guan raised an eyebrow.

"Stealth units are attempting to leave the city!"

Someone shouted immediately.

Chen Guan was instantly startled, and the Yanhuang Guild members who had been a bit lax immediately focused their attention.

Detection Arrow!

Clack~

Immediately, at the entry‑exit point arranged by Yanhuang, four or five stealthy assassins were revealed.

Four or five? That many?

Everyone stared and found that they were not the Gentleman Rogue Combination.

"Bang~ I thought they were finally going to fight."

"They're not the Gentleman Rogue Combination."

"Baihu, I guess the Gentleman Rogue Combination really chickened out."

"…"

"…"

Around them, a few remaining players waiting to "eat melons" also showed disappointed expressions.

Some people, having waited so long without getting any "melon", were preparing to leave.

…

"Who are you? Yanhuang has already said we're handling business; are you trying to cause trouble for us?"

Chen Guan scowled and looked at the players who had been revealed.

There are indeed assassin players; many assassin players around are also queuing to enter and exit.

"Yanhuang, you're so impressive, blocking all four City Gates of our Baihu Main City and refusing anyone entry and exit?"

One of the assassins immediately shouted.

"Since when does Yanhuang not allow you to come and go?" Chen Guan frowned.

"You queue normally to enter and exit, and we don't block you? Knowing we're dealing with the Gentleman Rogue Combination, you approach using Invisibility—what does that mean?"

The Yanhuang players around also glared angrily.

At that moment, Su Sheng suddenly furrowed his brow and opened the Guild Channel.

Others reported in the Guild Channel that assassin players were attempting stealth exits at all four City Gates.

But all were discovered and blocked.

And the melon‑eating players who were about to leave, seeing this, stayed; there's more melon to eat, why leave?

"Yanhuang, are you being this overbearing? We're just sneaking in and out, we didn't provoke you."

"We're assassin players hiding from enemies, sneaking in and out—what's the problem?"

"Right, you're being overbearing, still not letting us in and out?"

"This isn't your Zhuque City; do you really think Baihu City is empty and bully us Solo Players?"

"Yanhuang, this is you abusing your power, bullying our Solo Players for lack of unity!"

Several assassin players are now shouting, attempting to use Weak Empathy Ability to provoke the surrounding melon‑eating Solo Players into anger.

After all, in the game, most Solo Players are indeed the oppressed side when facing guild members.

But…

The result seems a bit different,

According to their expectations, when they shouted such words, the surrounding Solo Players should have started getting angry, even joining them in a collective outcry.

However…

Not only the surrounding melon‑eating players stared at them like fools, even those who were originally queuing to enter and exit began to distance themselves.

"What's happening?"

They were stunned; the script shouldn't have gone like this, right?

"The calculations were good, but… riddled with loopholes," Chen Guan sneered coldly.

If it were another guild, there's a high chance it could have sparked some Empathy.

But unfortunately, they're up against Yanhuang!

Among the many guilds, Yanhuang has had the best reputation since its founding.

First, Yanhuang is strict about recruitment; besides ability, they place great emphasis on character.

Every player who joins Yanhuang undergoes an observation period, and if their character proves lacking, they are dismissed.

Secondly, Yanhuang's founding was only a temporary effort by Su Sheng; it had no real backing, and aside from the original Assassin Alliance merger, most others were originally Solo Players.

And precisely because most Yanhuang members were once Solo Players, they naturally understand the Solo Players' difficulties; with character already observed… there may be a few that slip through, but not many.

"What?"

"You say the requirements are so high, recruitment is hard?"

"Sorry…"

The Zhu Lu Game isn't much at all; it's just that Solo Players are the most numerous, since hundreds of millions nationwide have entered the game, it can almost be called a game for the whole nation.

How many people does Yanhuang actually recruit? Or maybe they're worried whether Yanhuang's recruitment quota is enough.

Thus, under these circumstances, Yanhuang truly has never had any so‑called bullying by force.

Of course, at certain times they can be more assertive, such as now.

But there are still points where they can be flexible compared with other large guilds. I don't know how much better it is.

Moreover, with Lin Huan's series of policies, Yanhuang is the friendliest for Solo Players.

Even the reputation rankings on the game forum have Yanhuang firmly in first place, surpassing the entire world.

Also, Yanhuang's exclusive Training Spot—if ordinary players have quest requirements and state them clearly, they can go in to kill monsters… provided you don't cause trouble.

So far, no reports of Yanhuang bullying have surfaced on the forums.

Of course, some reckless guys are an exception.

And also…

Yanhuang Guild Leader, the top player in the game, had already made a Global Server Announcement with the Golden Title.

Global Server Announcement costs one thousand Gold Coins per message.

The Gold Coin Price is still falling, but it's still about 70–75 R per Gold Coin.

A single message costs at least 70,000 R—that's truly a Golden Title!

Moreover, Yanhuang doesn't completely block the City Gate; it lets everyone queue to enter and exit. Though it wastes a bit of time, you don't need even a minute per queue.

In the Zhu Lu Game, casually rushing across the massive map takes half an hour to an hour, so a time saving of less than a minute is negligible, and players can even snack on a melon meanwhile.

Why not enjoy it…

Mainly because now almost everyone knows that Yanhuang this time is targeting the Gentleman Rogue Combination, and compared with ordinary players of some large guilds, they despise these two even more.

Because when ordinary guilds face oppression, it's a clash over interests.

But these two guys kill people without any reason.

Solo Players… are not fools; under these circumstances, those assassins even deliberately sneak over.

Isn't this an obvious provocation of Yanhuang?

Look at those proper Solo Players—even assassins—who are earnestly queuing.

Really treating people like fools?

Who do you think will listen to you?

Su Sheng, hidden in the shadows, couldn't help but want to laugh.

Four City Gates opened simultaneously, confronting those assassins trying to sneak out.

Obviously…

This is organized.

And in the Bai Hu Main City, those who oppose themselves…

Don't even need to think… Qiancheng Muxue!

Then Su Sheng opened the Guild Channel and issued the order directly…
