Chapter 177: The Game Has No Bugs

Hearing these words.

The players immediately calmed down.

To ignore a Protective Array and enter or exit any location at will is almost equivalent to a Divine Artifact in the game; it is normal for there to be requirements.

Many people were already pondering how to build favor with Lin Bai and obtain the status of a reporter.

……

"Shopkeeper Lin, have you ever heard of a Camera or a Mobile Phone in the Justice Sect?" 【Madman】 asked, unwilling to give up on learning more information about the Justice Sect.

"Perhaps! The Justice Sect has too many treasures, and my energy is limited; it is impossible for me to know everything." Lin Bai frowned slightly and gave an ambiguous answer. He looked at 【Madman】 and smiled, "Little Mad, I know you yearn for the Justice Sect, but to enter the Justice Sect, you must make yourself excellent enough. Right now, dragging me to ask about the Justice Sect is meaningless."

"Oh!" 【Madman】 replied in a daze. Lin Bai's words were very general, but they also exposed a lot of information.

The official setting for the Justice Sect likely borrowed many modern things. Although this would make a Xianxia game seem incongruous, 【Madman】 accepted his fate.

After all, there were no similar games on the market.

A monopoly.

If he wanted to continue playing the game, he had to accept this shitty setting.

Perhaps in the end, it would give him a surprise! 【Madman】 comforted himself this way.

……

Lin Bai put the Reporter ID away again.

Suddenly.

His eyes lit up abruptly, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, thinking to himself, I've hit the jackpot.

Lin Bai took out the Recording Pen, scanned the crowd of players gathered around, and smiled: "Remember the Lightning Storm from before? To prevent another accident like last time, let's practice in advance! Madman, you organize the Heavenly Descended, let's start with a ten-person batch."

"Holy shit!"

The moment 【Madman】 saw the Recording Pen, he understood what Lin Bai wanted to do. His expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but curse.

Lin Bai's electricity-storing bracelet heated up slightly as a current of electricity surged into it.

【Madman】 knew the power of Lin Bai's Palm Thunder; to be honest, he didn't want to charge Lin Bai's Recording Pen at all.

The Justice Sect even had high-tech items. The more he looked at Lin Bai's style, the more he seemed like a villain. It was highly likely that they were the masterminds, just like in the movies—the kind that would eventually rule the world to achieve their own goals...

If that were really the case, the roles played by the players were likely the Jiusheng meant to help the natives save the world!

At this time, increasing Lin Bai's strength was just creating trouble for himself in the near future.

Every bolt of lightning that would land on the players' heads in the future would be something they chanted themselves—how ironic!

What the hell is this?

Who was the one who said that chanting tongue-twisters together could drain Lin Bai's Internal Energy and was an official bug to limit him?

This was clearly a cheat code given to him, and an unsolvable one at that.

In any other game, Lin Bai's mana bar would definitely be at the question-mark level...

……

"Is there a problem?" Lin Bai looked at 【Madman】 and asked with a smile.

"Shopkeeper Lin, I'll do it." 【Silver】 volunteered. The players were all livestreaming, and there were all kinds of people in the bullet comments; naturally, some had discovered the bug with the Recording Pen, but not every player thought as far ahead as 【Madman】.

You won't let him use the cheat?

Even if the officials enable it later, you still won't be able to stop it!

It's better to curry favor with Shopkeeper Lin now and get the benefits first; as for the future, who cares?

Lin Bai looked at 【Madman】 with dissatisfaction, then nodded at 【Silver】 with a smile: "Good, you organize it. Little Deng, you assist Silver."

"Understood, Master." 【Deng Li Buduo】 replied readily.

He was Lin Bai's personal Disciple. The more powerful the Justice Sect was, the more benefits he would receive. As long as he was having fun playing, he didn't care about the deluge that might follow.

Perhaps, once he obtained the resources of the Justice Sect, he would even be the main force in rebelling against Lin Bai!

Sycophant!

【Madman】 suddenly realized what was happening and hurriedly put a smile on his face, squeezing in front of Lin Bai: "Shopkeeper Lin, I'll do it, I'll do it. I was just stunned by the greatness of the Justice Sect and didn't react in time..."

……

The natives didn't understand the purpose of the Recording Pen and didn't realize what Lin Bai wanted to do at first.

But when the players lined up and began to chant the tongue-twisters in a ragged chorus, bolts of lightning fell from Lin Bai's palm, scorching the tall trees in the forest and startling the birds and beasts into flight.

And after Lin Bai pressed the play button on the Recording Pen and unleashed another wave.

The expressions of Daojing and the others turned extremely ugly in an instant.

Many Golden Core Daoists who had participated in the first siege of Lin Bai were so scared they trembled, nearly wetting themselves. If Lin Bai had possessed this Dharma Treasure back then, not a single one of them would have returned. The Reporter ID wasn't the Divine Artifact; the Recording Pen was!

Finally, five hundred people chanted "Cui Cutui" in unison, and hundreds of Palm Thunders shot from Lin Bai's palm, falling like rain into the forest, snapping countless trees.

The terror of the Huilong Temple Daoists all turned into relief, and their dissatisfaction with Lin Bai vanished into thin air. Compared to the Justice Sect that had mastered the laws, the Heavenly Dao Sect was nothing...

……

"Holy shit"

"Holy shit"

"This game is unplayable"

"Who else is going to raid Lin Bai? Step up and sign up"

"Without Nascent Soul cultivation, you'll die as many times as you encounter Lin Bai"

"Group up? Use strategy? It's completely unsolvable, okay"

"Would carrying a Lightning Rod work?"

"A Lightning Rod won't work; at the very least, you'd need the protective suit of a high-voltage electrical operator"

"None of it works, damn it. The officials gave Lin Bai too big of a cheat. This time I'm really going to the forum to protest. A boss of this level shouldn't appear in the early stages of the game"

"The one upstairs is interesting; Lin Bai hasn't actively killed any players up to now, so when has anything been different? Which final BOSS in a game isn't hard to challenge?"

"It's different. You know the BOSS is right beside you, but you just don't have the ability to take him down, and you watch him get stronger and stronger with your own eyes—don't you feel miserable inside?"

"What's infuriating is that the BOSS was even fed and raised by you all."

"The most critical point is that Lin Bai gives you a sense of oppression that all your efforts are in vain. What is the pursuit of playing games? It's the joy of constantly leveling up and growing step by step, the joy of constantly challenging a BOSS and finally winning. And now? The Game Company has successfully obliterated this joy."

"Right, that's exactly the feeling. I worked hard to defeat everyone and become a manager, only to find that the colleague who joined at the same time is the chairman's son, who ascended to the top in one step and inherited the entire company. Do you know how heartbreaking that feeling is?"

"Pursuing realism? The Game Company is slapping its own face; which part of this plot is realistic? It's one thing for high-tech products to appear in the Xianxia World, but where does a Group president personally come to the front line to snatch sales performance from a salesman? It's not like just adding some flowers and plants is called realism; at the very least, your plot must be logical!?"

"If this continues, the Beggar Sect will also be pointless. Originally, we could still beat the drums and shout a couple of slogans, but now they are just extras carrying a Camera to film Lin Bai showing off; there is simply zero game experience."

"Everything needs to have a limit. The Game Company probably doesn't understand who the protagonist is, right? If the players all run away, what the hell kind of money are they going to make!"

"The Gods and Demons World next door is developing very normally; everything is taking its natural course. Players are growing, NPCs are adapting to players—that is what you call realism!"

"The game planners for Xianxia have dog shit in their brains."

"We want to see a player show, not a Lin Bai show."

"Go protest, go protest!"

"+1"

"+1"

The appearance of the Recording Pen and the Camera finally provoked public anger.

The Xianxia World forum was filled everywhere with posts demanding the company change the plot and nerf Lin Bai; players who hadn't entered the game, and players who had entered the game but hadn't joined the Beggar Sect, were all stirring up various kinds of trouble.

The players even started a wave of boycotting advertisements endorsed by the Beggar Sect, and a wave of no longer tipping any Beggar Sect Disciple...

The slogan they shouted was: don't let the Game Company ruin the game.

Perhaps the commotion the players made was too big, or perhaps the appearance of high-tech items like the Recording Pen was too abnormal.

That very day.

The official forum of the Xianxia World rarely issued an announcement.

"One, the game has no bugs. In order to pursue realism, there is no officially set plot in the game. All plots are generated naturally as events develop; anyone's decision has the possibility of changing the development of an event;"

"Two, all NPCs can be killed. As long as you have the ability, a player can also be the final BOSS;"

"Three, seven days later, the fifth batch of Pioneer quotas will be issued, randomly selected, with a total of 200,000 people."

Once this announcement was released.

All voices in the forum that felt the game was unreasonable vanished in an instant.
