After the official end of the Dragon Boat Festival, Lu Wu made an official post and began to compile the players' comments on the festival.
Seeing the official post, a large number of players flooded into the post and began to actively comment on Lu Wu's post about their feelings towards the festival.
Needless to say, the festive atmosphere of the Dragon Boat Festival made the players extremely excited. It could be said that there was a flood of good reviews. Most of the players began to request the officials to organize more such events, not just limited to the festival.
However, there were also some players who began to cry in the official post, saying that they had lost all their soul coins in the Dragon Boat Festival and hoped that the officials would help them.
Naturally, Lu Wu turned a blind eye to these players' cries because participation in this event was not voluntary.
Moreover, he was the mastermind behind the Dragon Boat Festival, using this method to earn a large sum of soul coins.
When he first decided to organize this event, Lu Wu also thought that it would be fine as long as everyone was happy during the festival. He did not want to interfere in the outcome of the competition.
However, Lu Wu did not expect that due to the large number of players participating, the number of soul coins would soon reach hundreds of millions, and it was still increasing.
This gave Lu Wu a fright.
After all, with such a large number of soul coins, losing one round was not a big deal. At most, it would make him feel sad for a few years. However, this Dragon Boat Festival had a total of six rounds.
If he was unlucky, Lu Wu felt that he would have to lose all his money, and it might not even be enough.
Therefore, Lu Wu, who was originally prepared to watch the players celebrate, made his move.
However, it was actually not easy to control the process of the competition behind the scenes, and to prevent the nearly 100 million players from noticing.
However, this was not a problem for Lu Wu who had the help of the almighty Bei Li. Since he could not start with the dragon boats, he could start with the props. He let Bei Li control the placement of the props in the event scene!
This would allow some of the dragon boats to eat the best props, and with the help of the props, they would be in the lead all the way.
This was Lu Wu's behind-the-scenes manipulation method, and it was very useful.
For the players, they would only feel that some of the dragon boats in this competition were particularly lucky, but they would not think otherwise.
After all, to the players, this event was just for entertainment, and the soul coins used were virtual currencies that the Battle Alliance officials could create as many as they wanted. To the Battle Alliance officials, it was of no use at all.
Therefore, they were very confident in the results of the competition.
Most importantly, there would be players betting soul coins on every dragon boat. After every round of betting, there would be players who won and cheered. This made the other players who lost their soul coins think that they were just unlucky.
Relying on the coexistence of the fake and the real, not only did Lu Wu not lose money during the Dragon Boat Festival, he even made a huge profit.
On this day, Lu Wu felt that he had been blinded by money …
It felt so good to have soul coins!
…
Beiqi, Liuli Coast.
After the Dragon Boat Festival ended, Liuli Coast's player population was no longer as dense as before.
Basically, if they didn't choose to explore the sea, they would attack Beiqi in the form of a small team, engaging in guerrilla warfare with the brothers of the Nine Luminaries.
However, compared to fighting with the Nine Luminaries Brothers, the players were more interested in going out to sea at the current stage.
The main reason for this was the new NPC, Hai Yue.
This NPC had recently returned to the Liuli Coast, immediately attracting the attention of many players.
As mentioned in the introduction, the new NPC was very knowledgeable about the sea. Many of the questions that the players did not understand about the sea could be answered by her.
Recently, a few guilds had even spent a lot of soul coins to obtain information about the underwater ruins of the Void Ocean from the new NPC, Hai Yue. They had already begun to organize people to explore the underwater ruins.
It could be said that the existence of the Empress had aroused the players' enthusiasm for the development of the sea.
This was exactly what Lu Wu wanted to see, and also one of the key reasons why Lu Wu had pulled the Empress into his camp.
For the geographical location of Beiqi in the Underworld, the development of the forces in the sea was extremely important. Moreover, the resources in the Underworld Sea were incomparably rich, far more potential for development than the land which was highly restricted.
Since the current players placed too much emphasis on the development of the land, the forces in the sea had always been lacking. Even if they had a huge fleet, they still lacked the experience to fight on the sea.
Therefore, the existence of the Empress was to make up for this shortcoming, so that the forces of the players in the sea could be equally strong.
…
At the same time, at the Liuli Coast.
A man and a woman sat on a rock by the beach, looking at a little boy who was playing in the sand not far away. Their faces were full of helplessness.
"Murphy, Little Ball is becoming more and more mischievous. What should we do?" Little Pomelo looked at the little boy not far away and sighed helplessly.
"I don't have any experience either!" Murphy could not help but sigh.
At this moment, the two people who were distressed about their child were Murphy and Little Pomelo, two members of the Beiqi Wall Cheaters.
The little boy who was playing in the sand not far away from them was the "child" that they had received as a reward for winning first place in the June 1st event.
Murphy and Little Pomelo were actually very surprised to be able to win first place in the June 1st event.
This was because they had no experience in raising a child. During the event, they had to read the guides on the official forum and explore their way forward step by step.
However, for some unknown reason, perhaps because the adopted child had a naturally optimistic personality, he was always happy. Even though they had made countless mistakes along the way, Little Ball's happiness value had always been increasing. In the end, he won first place in the June 1st event by a slight margin.
And so, this child named 'Qiuqiu' stayed behind.
Initially, the couple was very happy to have Little Ball as a child. Both of them were still underage, and it was indeed too early for them to bear the pressure that they were not supposed to bear at their age.
However, Little Ball always brought them happiness, and it also made them feel that their relationship with each other was more complete. Hence, they loved Little Ball very much and took good care of him.
During this period, the couple learned from the guides on the official forum that the boy had to buy a house when he grew up. Murphy and Little Pomelo stopped exchanging soul coins for R coins because they planned to save money to buy a house in Beiqi for Little Ball.
However, since Beiqi did not allow the purchase of individual houses at this stage, they only had one choice now, and that was to buy a guild base for Little Ball.
This was undoubtedly a huge expense, and it worried the couple to no end.
One must know that the purchase of a guild base was basically fought for with the strength of a guild. Although the couple was strong, their way of earning money was very simple. Basically, they still accepted hunting missions as usual.
Although the income was not low, it was obviously impossible to buy a guild base in this way.
At this moment, they were suddenly very envious of the guilds that had begun to do business in the Void Ocean. This was because the daily income of these guilds was extremely impressive, far from what assassins like them could compare with.
However, their feelings for Little Ball were very sincere, and they really raised him as their own child. Hence, even if it was very difficult, they still wanted to buy a base for Little Ball in Beiqi.
However, before this problem could be solved, a new problem arose.
This was because recently, Little Ball actually wanted to learn assassination techniques from them.
This made the underage couple completely dumbfounded.
One must know that Little Ball was only six years old, and he actually wanted to learn assassination techniques!
Hence, the couple decisively refused because they hoped that Little Ball would study hard, even if it was to learn life professions from Tong Gua, the Rock Ghost King, and the others. However, they were firmly against learning assassination techniques.
After all, assassination was too dangerous. Although Little Ball also had the ability to resurrect like them, they had completely substituted themselves into the role of parents at this time. Naturally, they did not want Little Ball to do such a high-risk profession that stained his hands with blood.
However, what they did not expect was that Little Ball cried and threw a tantrum. He did not listen to their advice at all and insisted on learning.
This worried the couple to death. They could not bear to hit him, and they did not listen to their advice either. They suddenly became at a loss!
After all, they did not have the experience of raising a child. Although they felt that it was for Little Ball's own good, they could not say anything to lecture him. Every time Little Ball said that he wanted to learn assassination techniques, they could only imitate the parents on TV and reject him with a straight face.
However, this trick was useless to their child, Little Ball. On the contrary, because of this objection, it made the child want to learn even more.
"Daddy, mommy, look at this dagger I made!" At this moment, the naked Little Ball pointed at the dagger that was piled up with sand and shouted happily at Murphy and Little Pomelo.
Murphy and Little Pomelo looked at each other and could not help but sigh in their hearts.
What made them even more helpless was Little Ball's attribute panel at this moment.
[Little Ball (6 years old)]:

…
Seeing that the hobby in Little Ball's Analysis Panel had changed to assassin, Murphy and Little Pomelo were so worried that their hair turned white. How could he be so rebellious?
Seeing that Murphy and Little Pomelo did not respond, Little Ball could not help but pout its mouth. Then, it trotted to the front of the two.
Then, it slowly knelt in front of the two of them in shock.
"Daddy, mommy, please teach me the skills of an assassin. I will definitely become a great assassin!"
"When your uncle Tong Gua is resurrected, I will let you learn the skills of forging from him. How about becoming a blacksmith? Oh yes, daddy is also a pharmacist. I can teach you how to refine medicine, "Murphy said tentatively.
"No! I want to become a great assassin! "Little Pomelo raised its head and said with a wronged expression.
"No way!" Little Pomelo glared at it from the side.
However, her rebuke did not seem to be threatening at all. Little Ball continued to look determined.
"There's no room for discussion. Other than being an assassin, anything else is fine!" Murphy also pretended to be dignified at this time.
"I want to be an assassin. I will listen to daddy and mommy for everything else," Little Ball said stubbornly. After that, it turned around and ran to the beach.
At this moment, Murphy and Little Pomelo's eyes widened.
"I suddenly feel like beating him up. I heard that a filial son is born from a stick!" Little Pomelo said angrily.
"Me too!" Murphy immediately echoed.
However, even though they said so, they were reluctant to really take action.
Since they really did not have any countermeasures, the two of them could only seek help from the idiotic netizens in the forum, hoping to find a way to deal with the naughty child.
While the two of them were browsing the forum, a private Specter Ship docked and a person got off.
After putting away the Specter Ship, the person stepped onto the beach. Then, he noticed Little Ball not far away. His face was suddenly filled with curiosity, and he could not help but walk over.
After coming to Little Ball's side, Mo Xiaoxin asked with a smile, "Little brat, what are you doing?"
"Uncle, I'm making a dagger!" Little Ball looked up and answered with a smile.
"Why are you making a dagger?" Mo Xiaoxin was stunned.
"My parents don't allow me to play with daggers, so I can only make it myself." Little Ball's face showed a sad expression.
"It's not a big deal. I just got a white dagger. Here, take it." Mo Xiaoxin took out a dagger from the channel and handed it to Little Ball.
At this moment, Little Ball's eyes lit up, and he quickly took the dagger.
After carefully looking at the dagger, Little Ball bowed to Mo Xiaoxin with a smile, "Thank you, uncle!"
"Hey, little brat, do you really want to be an assassin?" Mo Xiaoxin said with a smile.
"Yes, I want to be the number one assassin in the future!" When Little Ball said this, he seemed particularly serious, but then his expression turned gloomy. "Unfortunately, daddy and mommy don't allow it."
"What are you afraid of? Go pursue your dream. When you succeed, your parents will definitely be proud of you." Mo Xiaoxin encouraged.
"But daddy and mommy don't agree."
"If I were you, do you know what I would do?" Mo Xiaoxin laughed mischievously.
"What would uncle do?" Little Ball raised his head curiously.
"I'd run away from home, hehe!"
…
While Murphy and Little Pomelo were consulting the players on the official forum, Mo Xiaoxin (Crayon Xiao-xin) had already begun his deception, and he had successfully tricked Little Ball.
So when the two of them finished their consultation and were ready to implement the method of the idiotic netizens …
They were shocked to find that Little Ball had disappeared.
At this moment, a few words of farewell were scrawled on the ground.
However, Murphy and Little Pomelo were sure that these words were definitely not written by Little Ball!
