Chapter 1598 Shocking Change During Live Broadcast
During this period, Noah's new weapons have become a hot topic on StarNet several times.

Countless netizens camped out on the online store, leaving comments and closely monitoring updates, urging Noah to increase production.

Cen Fangyuan had already convened a meeting with relevant personnel, and based on the patterns of internet celebrities, they unanimously agreed that the current popularity was only temporary.

Once these batches of Sersorn orders are delivered, Sersorn's market share will become saturated, and demand will naturally decline.

This will allow the surplus production capacity to be redirected to orders from the Star Hub online store and other star systems. It will also allow the crew members, who have been working non-stop, to rest and recuperate, achieving a balance between work and rest.

To attract customers, Cui Yan specifically instructed the technology department to add a video display area to the most prominent position at the top of the online store.

The area features a loop of official product details, card attribute descriptions, user guides, and real-life videos uploaded by buyers from various regions.

Buyers who proactively upload test videos not only have the opportunity to be featured on the homepage, but also receive store points that are far higher than ordinary text reviews or system-default positive reviews.

This points redemption system was improved by Cui Yan by drawing on the Lanxing e-commerce model and combining it with the Xingshu trade rules.

The Noah Star Network Shop not only sells new fusion magic artifacts, but also traditional magic artifacts, as well as various local specialties of Lanxing.

All items in the store can be purchased directly with credits and earn corresponding member points; they can also be redeemed entirely with member points, but the redemption channel does not offer extra points.

These are truly powerful items, and the amount of points they can be exchanged for is enormous.

However, the shop also caters to the general public, offering both high-priced religious artifacts and affordable portable accessories, as well as unique decorative souvenirs.

A regular Sentinel in Thersorn can acquire a set of portable card slots, along with three or four attribute cards. The accumulated points are enough to exchange for a high-quality dagger or short blade—a small melee weapon.

Of course, you can also choose other trinkets as you like.

Who doesn't love something given away for free?
For a time, the social circles of the Sentinels of Sersorn were filled with posts showing off new weapons and feature cards, as well as positive posts showing off the various small weapons and fun accessories they had redeemed with points.

Most of the weapons used as points rewards are failed products forged by the weapon-forging team.

Although the internal spiritual energy pathways were not successfully constructed and it could not be activated as a magical artifact, as an ordinary cold weapon, its appearance and function were fully up to standard, and there were even many exquisite examples.

Cui Yan had the foresight to instruct the weapon refiners not to waste spiritual energy, but to melt down the failed products and recast them, taking this opportunity to clear out the backlog of inventory.

In his words, these are all just small tricks to stimulate customer engagement, boost consumer desire, increase customer loyalty, and build brand loyalty, and are not worth mentioning.

Lin Fan had nothing to say except to give these quick-witted people a thumbs up.

On this day, the Noah Star Store was still bustling with activity.

Countless netizens are online, waiting for new products, chatting, commenting on the weapon performance in the pinned video, or the fun of the video, completely treating this virtual store as a new daily gathering place.

Suddenly, the lively scrolling video went black.

The next second, the scene abruptly changed, revealing a middle-aged man with a cold and stern face.

Against a gray background, the middle-aged man, with only half of his body visible, faces the camera with three-quarters of his face turned to the side, his appearance clearly displayed to everyone.

"Holy crap! Isn't that Governor Shen Chong'an?!"

Someone immediately recognized him, but at that moment, no one knew the seriousness of the situation.

"Even Governor Shen came to film an encore video?"

"No wonder the store gave him a special seat; he's really showing off..."

"Who is this person? He looks fierce."

Not everyone knows Shen Chong'an, and many netizens from other regions have asked him questions.

"This is the highest-ranking official of our Sentinel General Headquarters in the Sersorn Star Region."

What is the Sentinel General Hospital?

Is the Supreme Leader the same as the President?

"No, it's more like a general or commander, which are common in interstellar space."

"Oh, that must be really impressive."

"No wonder he looks fierce..."

"Is he talking about Helian Rongjin?"

"Holy crap! Holy crap!! This isn't a buyer's video!!!"

"What the hell?! Wasn't Helian Rongjin's resurrection orchestrated by his uncle? How is Shen Chong'an involved?"

"Am I the only one who noticed the live stream icon in the upper right corner?" The entire internet instantly erupted in discussion, and the comment section completely spiraled out of control.

"Damn! Does the Sentinel General Hospital even know? Shen Chong'an has exposed himself on StarNet!"

"We've lost face in interstellar space! @Sethorn Sentinel Headquarters @Sethorn Official @Sethorn Military @Sethorn Sentinel Association..."

"Hey, listen to him! Don't try to cover his mouth!"

"Oh my god! Is Shen Chong'an really this kind of person?"

"Put your heart in the right place, not your actions. Support Shen Chong'an!"

"You'll behave if I take you to do experiments!"

"I never thought he was this kind of person... I'm scared..."

There were all sorts of opinions, and the online store comments were a chaotic mess. The popularity skyrocketed, soaring straight to the top of the interstellar trending search list.

Sersorn officials received the news immediately and urgently contacted Shen Chong'an, but received no response.

After making several inquiries, they learned that the Noah crew had broken into Shen Chong'an's private residence, and the military had sent people to intercept them. They quickly contacted the military leader in charge of the team.

The online community was in an uproar, and the sentries at the laboratory site were equally shocked. The most shaken was the leader of the military team.

He couldn't understand why Shen Chong'an would reveal these shady private plans in front of so many people.

His unease grew stronger, and he began to worry that those who had intruded this time would likely not be able to escape unscathed.

It wasn't until his wrist kept vibrating and he saw the military's urgent message that he realized all of this had been broadcast live throughout the entire interstellar space.

He turned his head and locked onto Cen Fangyuan, reaching out to stop the live stream from continuing.

The jet-black spiritual energy surged from his palm, transforming into several sharp spears that pierced straight at Cen Fangyuan.

Cen Fangyuan was completely oblivious to the approaching danger, hidden from Antonio's view.

Antonio turned to look at the oncoming attack and smiled.

Before he could even raise his hand, Lin Fan snapped his fingers lightly. The surging black light in mid-air, along with the military leader who was performing the attack, seemed to be paused, frozen in place.

The other military sentries behind him immediately became restless. Before they could react, another snap of the fingers caused all the military personnel to freeze, turning into warm, immobile statues.

Antonio's shoulders slumped—his fun was over.

Meanwhile, Eli also received an official order to stop him. But before he could come up with a solution, he saw that all the military personnel had been dealt with.

In the blink of an eye, the sentries from the Foreign Affairs Department huddled together in alarm, fearing that they might be imprisoned if they were too close to the military formation. They all looked at Eli with trepidation.

Eli knew full well that he was powerless to stop the situation, and that he, being in a position of power, could not stand idly by.

He let out a long sigh, closed his eyes tightly, then opened his arms wide and rushed towards Cen Fangyuan, shouting:

"You stop!"

The shout was heard both inside and outside the live stream room.

Cen Fangyuan also thoughtfully rotated the camera to include Eli's figure as he stepped forward to stop him in the corner of the frame.

Seeing that the opportunity was too good to pass up, Antonio quickly stepped forward and shouted, "I'll do it!"

With a single reach, he pushed the already prepared reliance backwards.

"Get under control," Cen Fangyuan whispered a reminder.

In one corner of the image, Eli, lying motionless on the ground, is firmly pressed to the floor by a film of shimmering blue water, as if a vacuum has been drawn from him, his fate unknown.

Seeing this, the sentries from the Foreign Affairs Department could no longer remain indifferent. They had only taken two steps when they were engulfed by huge bubbles.

The bubbles were filled with water, and the trapped people could only float around inside, flailing their arms and legs, completely out of control, as the bubbles slowly rose and they were suspended in mid-air.

In comparison, the military sentries who were stationed in place like statues were in a slightly better situation.

Shen Chong'an remained oblivious to all of this, speaking calmly as before:

"...The 3S Sentinels are physically strong enough, but there are simply no suitable test subjects available for research."

"The internal strife within the Helian family has presented me with an excellent opportunity, and I certainly won't let it slip by..."
