Chapter 268: Today I Have Things to Do, Got Dragged Off to a Pleasure House to Listen to Songs

Today I have things to do, got dragged off to a pleasure house to listen to songs.

A friend came from far away, took the high-speed train for several hours just to hang out with Fries, so naturally I have to show my friend around, eat and drink and whatnot. Today I'll probably be out the whole day, no time to write words wah wah wah.

I'll also think about how to handle Old Xiezhi's arc, as well as the current predicament of the Bureau of Anomalies and the Calamity Cult.

Because some bros might wonder why the official side is always a mess internally, while the extremely evil Calamity Cult is orderly and united, making the officials look like giant babies. The protagonist's involvement would then turn into a babysitter dragging a giant baby onto the battlefield, where the officials are nothing but a burden to him and might even backstab him.

Regarding this kind of thinking, Fries has thought about it too.

My assessment is — it won't happen.

Fries won't write it that way.

The officials as a whole, being a state institution, are definitely a positive and powerful presence; otherwise they wouldn't be recognized by so many players as the most powerful organization in the Spirit Calamity Game.

People like Old Xiezhi aren't few in number; he's just the most typical one, and the protagonist only knows him so far.

It was also mentioned earlier that when Old Xiezhi suffered unfair treatment, higher-ups stepped forward to speak up for him, and grassroots protests weren't rare either.

Otherwise, how could he have been simply transferred away with no accidents happening along the way?

The protagonist stepping into official business now isn't about picking a faction or taking sides.

He's just helping Old Xiezhi as a friend; the Bureau of Anomalies' problems have nothing to do with him.

In Wu Wang's view, this is just a bigger bit of fun, and he can help a friend along the way.

Perhaps the description in this aspect wasn't enough, leading some bros to misunderstand and think the officials are overly incompetent and constantly problematic.

Fries will also pay attention to this aspect.

Won't shape the plot into something everyone finds disgusting.

Old Xiezhi's dedication also won't be blind loyalty.

A single spark will eventually start a prairie fire.

Wu Wang's appearance just turns some very heavy problems into something humorous to resolve; after all, his positioning is that of a fun-seeker, his job is to present the fun.

Like in the previous chapter when tensions were running high, only he could break the deadlock in an unexpected way.

The "let's all die together" approach is a charm and fun unique to Wu Wang.

Going forward, the officials' iron fist and reliability will also be shown; it won't be a gilded shell with rotten insides, an empty facade.

Fries will carefully craft these contents, and the next dungeon will connect quickly; I won't keep everyone stuck in real-life scheming and infighting for long.

After all, the open beta is about to descend.

Today I have things to do, already dragged off to a pleasure house to listen to songs.

Alright, what's now placed before Fries is a whole crate of alcohol; let me survive first and we'll talk later.
