Five Nights quickly went offline and contacted his boss, Unparalleled Wonder. Unparalleled Wonder took the news very seriously. Studios like Age Qi naturally valued their reputation and image in the eyes of the players. This was also the main competition between large studios. If their image was ruined, it would be extremely detrimental to the long-term development of the studio. Age Qi was most worried about the players having a bad impression of them after messing around with the Ten Guilds Alliance. Fortunately, the Ten Guilds Alliance was not successful in manipulating the public opinion. Age Qi got some professional gunmen and quickly gained the upper hand.
However, the current situation was different. This was leaked by someone who had left Eagle. It didn't matter if it was true or not, it would be easy for the players to believe it. Moreover, this wasn't just a rumor on the forums, but an official report from a professional gaming media. The weight of this news was not to be underestimated.
"Is the situation reliable?" Unparalleled Wonder asked Five Nights on the phone as he prepared to enter the game.
"The manager of Danmoss City is in contact with the other party. It sounds like it's true," Five Nights replied.
"Let's go take a look first." Unparalleled Wonder hung up the phone and entered the game. Five Nights did the same, and he had already prepared a Teleportation Scroll. After waiting for the boss, the two of them immediately teleported to Danmoss City.
Three Second Zone was relieved that the two of them arrived so quickly. However, he could not take back his promise to treat them to a meal, but at least he did not have to go to the other side of the city. Three Second Zone estimated a restaurant that was about the same distance between them. After informing the other party, he changed his route and brought Xi Xiaotian over.
The restaurant food in the game was still mainly meat with various fruits. There was no possibility of Chinese food appearing for the time being. It was said that the Alchemists were constantly working on it. The players were at a loss. How did the Alchemists get involved in the cooking system? This was too confusing.
Three Second Zone and Xi Xiaotian arrived first. After asking for Xi Xiaotian's opinion, he asked for a fruit platter and recommended their Danmoss City's special barbecue. The so-called special barbecue was nothing more than the monsters in Danmoss City. It could not be found in other places. At the end of the day, only animals would be eaten by players. Players simply couldn't bring themselves to eat humanoid creatures, let alone elemental creatures, demons, and ghosts. Hence, their choices were rather limited.
None of them were really here to eat. Xi Xiaotian didn't mind at all, and he even dealt with the three-second zone. After ordering, he couldn't help but look at the door. Not long after, he saw Matchless Wonder and Five Nights. Ying Qi's director's regular meeting had also been held in Danmoss City, so the three seconds area had seen the boss and the director.
Three Seconds hurriedly stood up and said to Xi Xiaotian with a smile, "Great Reporter Xi, you're in luck. Our Ying Qi's boss and Wu Ye's director personally rushed over when they heard that you wanted to interview them."
"Oh? Really? "Xi Xiaotian was pleasantly surprised.
Matchless Wonder and Five Nights wasted no time in walking up to them. Xi Xiaotian's lack of recognition was the truth, and Three Second Zone quickly introduced them to each other.
"Miss Xi, are you a reporter from Fun Net?" Matchless Wonder said nonsensically.
"Yes, yes." Xi Xiaotian continued to be excited.
"Then Duo Mumuduo is your colleague?" Matchless Wonder asked.
"That's right. Boss, do you think I don't have enough weight? That's not a problem. I can contact them immediately, and they will be more than happy to interview you. If we knew that you would be interviewed personally, I think the website would have sent them. "
"Hahaha, there's no need to go through so much trouble. It's all the same, all the same." Matchless Wonder laughed.
Five Nights sent a message at the side, "If Duo Mumuduo publishes a draft, the weight will be higher, and it might be better, right?"
Matchless Wonder saw this message and just smiled. He replied to Five Nights, "Since they're tracking and interviewing people, how can they publish a draft under the name of a certain reporter? This is the website's overall operation. It doesn't matter which reporter it is. "
"Oh, that's right …" Five Nights suddenly understood.
"Miss Xi, can I trouble you to take a look at your reporter ID?" Matchless Wonder asked.
"Ah! That's right! If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten. "Xi Xiaotian immediately went to get his reporter ID. She was very familiar with the technique of hiding behind the shield. When she showed it to Gu Fei and the others, Gu Fei only saw a flaw in her hand shape, but didn't notice anything unusual about her movements. In terms of hand shape, Xi Xiaotian had also learned about it from Gu Fei. Now that he had corrected it, it could be said that it was watertight. Of course, it was inevitable that he would be a little nervous, but the so-called professional quality meant that no matter how nervous he was, his facial expression would be as flawless as the technique.
The skill lasted for fifteen seconds. What Xi Xiaotian was most worried about was that these fifteen seconds weren't enough for these people to appreciate. In theory, this was impossible. There was no point in looking at the ID in the game. Only appraisal skills could determine everything. This reporter ID only had a few words, so it shouldn't take fifteen seconds. It was possible that these people had never seen a reporter ID before, so they were curious about the content and kept looking at it. Xi Xiaotian was silently counting down in her heart. She had decided to put away the shield before fifteen seconds. She believed that this was enough time for these people to appraise the content of the reporter ID. After that, they could look at the content of the reporter ID as much as they wanted.
In the end, such a dangerous situation did not occur. The fact that this was the result of the appraisal proved that the document was genuine. As for the content on the document, it could be easily scanned. Matchless Hero was not in the mood to waste his curiosity on this. After confirming the authenticity of the document, he nodded and Xi Xiaotian put it away. Five Nights and Three Second Zone naturally wouldn't say anything. Their boss had already nodded!
"Many players don't know about this, and we don't have the habit of showing it to others. The boss really isn't an ordinary person," Xi Xiaotian said as she put away the shield and reporter ID.
"Hehe, I have some reporter friends, so I know that this ID exists in the game," Matchless Wonder said.
These words caused Xi Xiaotian's heart to skip a beat. The information from the Han Family Young Master said that Ying Qi's studio didn't interact much with in-game reporters, but Matchless Wonder had personally said that he had reporter friends. It seemed like there was an oversight. She didn't know if this oversight would cause any trouble, but from the looks of it, Matchless Wonder trusted her completely.
At this time, the two dishes that Three Second Zone ordered were served. Matchless Wonder glanced at them and said, "The food in the game isn't that great, Miss Xi, you should just put up with it! If the conditions allow, I can treat Miss Xi to a feast. Where are you from, Miss Xi? "
Their conversation slowly began to flow. Xi Xiaotian's preparations for the day weren't for nothing. She had already planned out how to lead to the topic she wanted. Starting from the topic that Three Second Zone had mentioned, she would slowly move on. She would also ask some questions based on Matchless Wonder's answers. Some of the more sensitive and awkward questions were asked by Xi Xiaotian without any hesitation. She acted like she was being objective as she walked towards her destination.
"Right now, the outside world is saying that Ying Qi will never be able to recover from this setback, but from your attitude, it doesn't seem like that's the case?" After discussing the various dangers that Ying Qi was facing, Xi Xiaotian brought the topic to this place.
"Of course. Although the other side used unfair methods to cause us to lose a large amount of talent, the foundation of Ying Qi's studio is still there. There are tens of thousands of frontline workers. As long as they are here, our resources will continue to be replenished. Moreover, the loss of talent and the Ten Guild Alliance's actions didn't affect our resources at all. If any player has any needs, they can contact us and we will definitely give them a satisfactory answer. Tell me, how can our studio be affected? "
"I heard that a large number of the higher-ups left Ying Qi's stable customers?" Xi Xiaotian said.
"Nonsense." Matchless Wonder said angrily, "The people can leave, but all the resources are still with Ying Qi. The players need equipment, items, and scrolls that are suitable for them. We have always believed in the rationality of the players. Therefore, we will only attract the players with good quality products at a low price. We won't rely on relationships. "
"It seems like Ying Qi's rich resources are the source of your confidence, right?" Xi Xiaotian asked.
"I can say without exaggeration that Ying Qi's resources are the most abundant and comprehensive among all the studios in the game. We can satisfy the needs of the players at all stages and classes." Matchless Wonder said.
"I wonder if I have the honor to take a look around?" After an hour and a half, Xi Xiaotian finally got to the point. She said this in such a reasonable situation, and no one could tell that she had any ulterior motives.
However, Matchless Wonder hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded, "Of course, no problem. I'll make the arrangements."
Five Nights didn't question his boss's decision. Moreover, he didn't think there was anything to worry about. Although they could take whatever they wanted from the storage, he believed that his boss wouldn't make the arrangements for no reason. Five Nights could understand his boss's intentions. Ying Qi's resources were something to be proud of. Using the Fun Gaming Website's reporters to publicize it would be a great advertisement. None of the gaming studios had ever done something like this through official websites or news reports. Instead, they would gather a bunch of minions to go to forums where players gathered and shout. Compared to this kind of slash-and-burn method, this kind of opportunity saved time and effort and had a greater impact. It could also shatter the rumors about Ying Qi's demise.
"Miss Xi, please wait for a moment. I'll get someone to bring a scroll over. We'll teleport there directly," Matchless Wonder said.
"Alright." Xi Xiaotian nodded. This was within their expectations. Teleporting directly into the warehouse would give them the coordinates, and they wouldn't even know which city they were in. Then, they would teleport away. It was a foolproof plan.
Other than that, Matchless Wonder also informed Eternal that someone was coming to visit the storage, and that a few experts were coming to take a look.
"Who is it? How many are there? "Eternal asked.
"A reporter from Fun Gaming Website, just one person," Matchless Wonder said.
"Reporter?" Eternal was confused.
"Yes, he's here for an interview. This matter is really big, and it seems like even the gaming website is going to report about it. We need to be the first to come here, so we have to accept this interview," Matchless Wonder said.
"But to come to the storage …" Eternal didn't say much. To be honest, this wasn't something he should be concerned about. He just listened to his boss, and did whatever he said. He didn't ask for the reason, and just carried out the orders. This was the principle of the Eagle Group after they were hired.
"There's no problem with this person's identity, but who knows if his hands and feet are clean? That's why I asked you to arrange a few brothers to keep an eye on him, but don't go overboard. Don't let anyone see through your intentions, "Matchless Wonder ordered.
"Understood." Eternal nodded. Then, he personally took charge and selected a few brothers. They were all quick-witted people.
"The scroll will be here soon. Miss Xi, would you like to eat some more? "Matchless Wonder arranged everything and returned to the dining table.
"No need, these haven't been touched!" Xi Xiaotian said.
The person who delivered the scroll was naturally from the Eagle Group. He had received instructions to deliver the scroll personally, and when he came over, he saw that there were four people. It seemed like he wouldn't be able to fly back on the scroll. At this moment, Three Second Area was also hesitating. He wasn't sure if he had the right to visit the storage.
In the end, Matchless Wonder took the scroll and asked Eternal if he had already arranged everything, so he immediately used it. The two of them were hesitant about whether they should step forward or not, but Xi Xiaotian and Wu Ye did not hesitate at all and directly entered the teleportation formation. Matchless Wonder clearly didn't think of this detail. The two were still hesitating, but the teleportation was already complete. In the end, the two were left standing there, looking at each other in dismay.
"Miss Xi, please take a look. This is our storage." The teleportation happened in an instant. As soon as they arrived at the new location, Matchless Wonder immediately began to introduce them.
"But I have to make one thing clear. This is only a part of our storage. We don't only have one storage." Matchless Wonder said.
"Oh? How many storage units like this does Inky have? "Xi Xiaotian asked.
"Twenty of them, all about the same size," Matchless Wonder said proudly.
"That's amazing!" Xi Xiaotian exclaimed, while noticing the extra players in the storage. They weren't working in the storage. Instead, they each took a corner, and their gazes would occasionally wander over to her. Xi Xiaotian took note of their positions. She was currently in a 360-degree position, so any movement she made would be seen by them.
"Miss Xi, please take a look. This is the scroll area. These are the usage scrolls, this is the learning scrolls, and these are the strengthening scrolls," Matchless Wonder introduced. The usage scrolls were single-use scrolls, the learning scrolls were permanent scrolls, and the strengthening scrolls were mostly Enchantment scrolls. These scrolls only appeared in the market after the players reached level 40.
Regardless of the type, the scrolls in front of her were all piled up like a mountain. Xi Xiaotian took a few steps closer. Eternal and the others were very nervous. Fortunately, Xi Xiaotian stopped when she was about a meter away from the scrolls. She stretched out her head and looked forward, trying to see the labels on the scrolls.
"Ice Strengthening …" Xi Xiaotian read out the name of the scroll. She then looked at the length, width, and height of the scrolls. Matchless Wonder was very pleased by her surprised expression.
Ice Strengthening was a passive skill. After learning it, the user's Ice-related skills or spells would be greatly improved. Currently, its main customers were Ice Mages, and it was known as a must-learn skill for Ice Mages. However, there was no such skill in the skill tree for Ice Mages. It was a skill that could only be learned through abnormal means. Hence, the price of the scroll was very high, and the demand for it exceeded the price. Many new Mages in the game knew that they had to save up from a young age, so that they would have a must-buy skill scroll when they became an Ice Mage at level 40.
Since there were Ice Strengthening Scrolls, there were naturally Lightning Strengthening Scrolls as well. Xi Xiaotian shifted his gaze to the side and saw the Lightning Strengthening Scrolls. The number of Lightning Strengthening Scrolls piled up was even more exaggerated than the number of Ice Strengthening Scrolls. Matchless Wonder helplessly explained, "Currently, the number of Lightning Mages and Ice Mages in the game is disproportionate, so the price of Lightning scrolls is relatively low."
"These scrolls aren't easy to find in the market!" Xi Xiaotian said.
Matchless Wonder smiled and didn't answer this question. Xi Xiaotian didn't need to ask to know that this was Ying Qi's marketing tactic. They purposely controlled the number of scrolls in circulation, so that the price of the scrolls wouldn't drop. This kind of behavior was probably carried out by all the studios. Although the demand for Lightning Scrolls was low, Ying Qi was still hoarding them. It was obvious that he had his sights set on the future. Perhaps in the next patch of the game, Lightning Mages would become Gods and lead the way. Lightning Enhancement was definitely a necessity.
Originally, the number one Mage in the game, Qianli, was an Lightning Mage when he was drunk. With such a powerful character, it was enough to cause a trend. But the problem was that Qianli's strength when he was drunk had nothing to do with whether he was an Ice or Lightning Mage. Even if other players were Lightning Mages, they wouldn't be as strong. This made the studios that were hoarding Lightning Mages depressed for a while. Even if you're strong, don't be so ridiculously strong! Being too strong would weaken the power of the role model, making people understand that it wasn't a matter of class …
After Matchless Wonder introduced the Learning Scrolls, there was a pile of Strengthening scrolls. These scrolls weren't any less valuable than the Learning Scrolls, but Ying Qi's stock was just as abundant. As Xi Xiaotian walked down, he finally had an idea. He sent a message to Gu Fei and the others, "Get ready!"
"Cries of Heaven, get ready!" Gu Fei hurriedly informed the others. Everyone's spirits were roused, and they stood up one after another. They came to an empty space and divided themselves into two groups, eight on each side.
The empty space on their left and right was the preset location for the portal. When Xi Xiaotian used the scroll, the portal would appear from here.
