Poverty makes me capable of anything.

Did they subscribe to New Moon memberships?

I was also wondering if this was some kind of brand new membership service?

[Or it could be a game bug.]

[Perhaps they're insiders, or maybe they're relatives of the owner of Stellar Corporation.]

Countless players were debating on the forums, making it probably the busiest time for the forums outside of the first few days after the server opened.

Players from different countries, societies, races, and ages were all engaged in a lively discussion about this topic.

This includes Gantz, who was once the number one in the Blue Forest and is now in fourth place.

As his name suggests, Gantz is a quest maniac and a killing machine. Countless monsters have died at his hands. As a renowned pro player, a casual player without a guild, and a top player who can compete for the top spot on the leaderboards in multiple games, Gantz is currently extremely angry.

He was actually overtaken by someone in just one day. If it were one of the few people right behind him who overtook him, it wouldn't be so bad. But they were just three players who had never appeared on the leaderboard before. According to the game's ranking curve analysis, even the strongest player, [Yu Mo], had never been in the top 2000 before.

Gantz specifically watched the recorded video and discovered that the three female players' achievement in that BOSS battle was simply ganging up on and killing a level 28 Taiva bug.

???

Damn it, Uncle Li!

Let alone three level 35 players ganging up on it, even a level 28 player with some skill could easily take down a Tava bug. The terrifying thing about the bugs is their sheer number.

It's too awful.

Gantz wanted to cry; this Taiva worm was so pitiful.

The mini-boss, the Teya Worm Egg, was so pitiful, being trampled and beaten by NPCs.

It's so unfair that he was pushed out of first place like this.

There must be something wrong here!

Therefore, Gantz went directly to the official Weibo account and then chose human customer service after connecting.

The customer service representative greeted us warmly, "Dear player, I am customer service representative number 0097 for [Night of the Stars]. How can I help you?"

"I'd like to ask if the three players, 'The Leading Escapee,' 'Monster Mountain Man,' and 'Feather Ink,' have activated any special services?"

Uh……

The customer service representative frowned; it was another question like this.

They've received thousands of similar complaints since this morning, so why haven't the programmers in the tech department and the PR guys in the PR department sent out the announcement yet?

Should we sacrifice two programmers and one propaganda engineer to appease the gods?

She could only patiently reply, "Dear player, there is no VIP service for [Night of the Stars]."

"How is this possible?" Gantz's voice rose. "Tell me honestly, does your company offer a New Moon membership service like the old XT company? It's just money, right? If they can afford it, so can I!"

He frowned and said, "Whatever service you need, just bring it on."

I'll expose this as soon as I get back.

Well, Gantz never intended to spend money; he played games to make money.

"Please rest assured, although [Night of the Stars] has recharge channels, our company really does not have a VIP service like the New Moon Membership," the customer service representative patiently explained.

"I don't believe you! Aren't you just worried that I can't afford to top up my account? You can check my account and see how much balance I have," Gantz said angrily.

Steamed bun slices.

It's happening again. It's infuriating!

The customer service representative really wanted to retort, since the game registers and binds players based on their actual information, and by simply accessing the backend data, she could roughly know each player's actual situation.

Starry Sky Entertainment isn't a charity, so these data have been carefully categorized and organized, making them a valuable, albeit hidden, resource.

If we're really talking about money, do you think your few million can compare to theirs?

The family that led the escape has assets worth hundreds of billions, and Yu Mo's family has assets worth over a billion. Even the poorest of the monsters, the mountain people, have personal assets worth tens of millions. Not to mention, she is the daughter of one of the three emperors of Eastern erotic novels.

Humph.

She pouted unhappily, but remembering that it was work time, the customer service representative patiently continued communicating with Gantz.

There are no membership issues, no bugs, and no suspected data adjustments. This is all normal gameplay behavior. The company will release a detailed explanation soon, so please be patient, dear players.

Finally, realizing he couldn't get any more information out of him, Gantz hung up the call.

Despite repeated reminders from customer service, he still didn't believe it.

He had raised his favorability with several NPCs to over 70, but those NPCs didn't show any special reaction. It's getting harder and harder to raise favorability above 70; it's not something that can be done in a short time.

He went to the forum again and found that everyone's feedback was the same as the result of his trial.

It wasn't until nearly noon that the official [Night of the Stars] team finally provided a detailed explanation of the matter.

The gist is that after investigation, they found no bugs in the game, nor any internal manipulation or VIP services. The game process of 【Night of the Stars】 is handled by a mainframe composed of many supercomputers; this is simply a normal gameplay element. There are many other unique gameplay features waiting to be explored, and players should actively explore their ideas.

The official explanation also included some examples, such as the BOSS. You can choose to defeat it or join its ranks. If you are skilled enough, you can even subdue the BOSS and make it work for you.

"If it's a beautiful female boss, you can completely use your charm to make her fall in love with you, and even marry you."

Is this some kind of crazy tactic?

"Yes, not just female bosses, but also princesses of the empire, and even the female governor of the Victoria Star Circle, if you don't mind that she's several generations older than you (she actually looks only around thirty). A human-machine romance can also become a beautiful story, and even female void creatures floating in the sea of ​​stars have a very small chance. The same goes for female players; we don't rule out any possibility. You could even become the ruler of an empire through clever means, ruling over billions of territories."

The official explanation was a bit cheeky, but it sparked an even more sensational wave of discussion.

Because before this, no game had ever been able to grant so many permissions in order to maintain the so-called balance of the game.

No wonder the promotional materials dared to say that "Night of the Stars" was the second world.

Having seen what the female governor looks like, I can tell you definitively that although she is 107 years old, she is clearly a mature and sophisticated woman.

So, when you encounter a female boss, should you kill her or not?

What do void creatures look like?

[If you're like Kaisa, I might consider this, *slurp* (￣ii￣;)]

[Haha, it's done! I will unify the universe and establish an invincible empire! You subjects, what are you waiting for? Kneel and worship!]

[Oh no, a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) patient has appeared.]

Beyond these discussions, many players also shared their own stories of interactions with NPCs.

For example, some people said that they were having a great chat with a female singer and felt like they had known each other for a long time, and they had the urge to go to a hotel right away.

"#Share your fun stories with NPCs! Everyone is welcome to participate. The top three will receive a special title customized by the official team." Following the previous video contest, a new event has emerged.

The official public relations team successfully defused a public opinion crisis and cleverly revealed the gameplay, generating a huge wave of buzz.

……

"Well done."

Anran, who has been closely following the forum these past two days, is overjoyed.

While the official actions limited her fame to some extent, they made her future path less difficult.

Her advantage as a female NPC becomes apparent at this point. As a special NPC whose ideological awareness surpasses that of all other NPCs, she can probably take advantage of this wave to accomplish many great things in the future.

Hahaha.

Opening gift packs when you're happy makes it even happier.

500 million experience points, a 30-minute Tyrian Bug Summoning Card, the Insecticide title didn't upgrade but gained a +1. There are also 3 Berserk Powder, which puts bugs into a berserk state, causing them to attack indiscriminately. Finally, there's the [Grass Bug Buster Set] accessory, the [Grass Bug Wheel], a relatively rare piece of equipment that increases movement speed and allows for a double jump.

However, it's not very useful for Anran; she can continue to use it as a mission reward to find the location of the next Teya bug egg.

An Ran instructed Zhou Jieyu to continue issuing missions, but this time she didn't wait on Kleber. She packed her things and, together with Ella, flew the spaceship to the "turbulence" she had chosen.

Only Zhou Jieyu and Li Zhuying, who had suddenly started a small "conflict," and Lin Yumo, who was still confused about the situation, were left behind.

The incident began as follows.

After the live stream ended, the online opinion took a dramatic turn. Players who had been angrily criticizing Zhou Jieyu suddenly disappeared, replaced by expressions of envy and praise. Furthermore, An Ran then spent most of the day farming bugs with Zhou Jieyu, propelling her level to second place in the region.

After getting off the giant robot's shoulder, Zhou Jieyu's eyes sparkled, and she excitedly said to Li Zhuying, "Oh no, I suddenly think An Ran is so handsome! Am I in love with him?!"

After saying that, Zhou Jieyu ran away.

Only Li Zhuying, disheveled in the wind, remained.

What did she just say?

She said she thinks she's fallen in love with An Ran?

(°△°〃)

The joy of rising to the top and acting alongside Anran, the joy of meeting a good friend and falling for the woman I like...

Happiness my ass, there's no such thing as learning in vain, it's all just "red" learning, the red of blood.

If you don't have a machete, then use a kitchen knife!

Bright--

Wow!

(;???Д??`)

I'm so sad I could cry.

However, Li Zhuying had to admit that An Ran's series of actions were indeed very effective at "seducing" girls and boys.

Even without all the messy stuff on the forum, sitting on one of the robot's shoulders with your partner would be a pretty "romantic" thing, and it would be even more enchanting if you weren't fighting bugs.

Moreover, An Ran is incredibly charming.

Therefore, Li Zhuying did not doubt whether Zhou Jieyu was sincere in saying those words.

Zhou Jieyu is also very beautiful, Li Zhuying has to admit that fact, but she is not bad looking either, so even if there is one more opponent, I, Li Zhuying, will not be afraid, and I will never withdraw from this "war" for the sake of friendship.

I will do better than you.

Li Zhuying thought that she had devoted herself to writing a book, and that if she finished it well, she would gain more appreciation from An Ran.

Kukukuku.

In fact, Li Zhuying was obviously overthinking things.

Although she couldn't guarantee what would happen in the future, Zhou Jieyu didn't currently harbor any romantic feelings for An Ran.
