I'm bad, but players love me

But as the saying goes, "What you fear will come to you." The more Luo Lan wished to disappear on the spot, the more Yun Shuo's words haunted her like a nightmare.

"Then, Master Luo Lan, please come with us."

"Uh-huh?!"

Chapter 75: Do you really think ELO has no fans? It's just that you are a loser.

I was just there to watch a play, how did this get me involved? I'm a really good citizen, I didn't even dare to say a word to you, how come you were also taken away?

Seeing Luo Lan's angry expression, Yun Shuo immediately tried to appease her, "Don't get me wrong. Luo Lan and Her Excellency Mina are just trying to escort us, the oppressed civilians, away. Wouldn't it be easier for them to be convinced by the words of the two nobles?"

I'll need her later, and it would be pointless to scare myself now.

Why did Mina rush over here so eagerly? She didn't have a system, so she couldn't have foreseen that Luo Lan would be persuaded by her. After all, before this, Mina didn't even know that Yun Shuo was the commander of ELO.

Then there is only one possibility - she is here to steal the credit.

According to Setash's habit of keeping secrets, he would never let anyone who was not involved in the plan know about these plans. The previous incident where his own people betrayed his own military factory was the best example.

But Yun Shuo had already obtained the list of all the participating nobles from Yialos, and Mina's name was not on the list at all.

The reason is not difficult to understand. Mina's residence is not on the same road as those people. If she is included, the civilians' route will no longer be a straight line where they can just keep moving forward without looking back.

Then, it is impossible to predict which noble's house they will eventually enter. If it is too early and it is not bright enough, it will be difficult to catch them if they rush out.

Moreover, in this way, what Setash really wanted to do could not be perfectly achieved - to arouse the anger of the civilians, and then forcibly suppress this anger in the name of Ella, the city lord, and wait until those people could no longer bear it, and then he would come to the world like a savior to represent justice and eliminate evil.

Now, the only problem is clear.

Yun Shuo secretly asked the system in his heart, "How did Mina know about arresting someone on Luo Lan's territory?"

[Setaish told her.] Although the system could directly access hidden plots that even the game technicians were unaware of, it still couldn't quite understand why the other party did this. [This is completely meaningless. Could it be that he already knew the host was coming?]

"It's just a gamble. How could he pass up such a good opportunity? My arrival will serve as a reminder to Mina that he knows my whereabouts and plans perfectly.

"If I hadn't come, Mina would have used this opportunity to become a popular figure in the aristocratic circle again. No matter what, Ella wouldn't take action against someone who has made great contributions, otherwise it would discourage others."

"But this is exactly what Setash wants. By then, everyone will know that following Ella may not guarantee meat, but following Setash will definitely guarantee dog food."

[Then isn't he just gambling blindly? Any random guess is fine. I can do it too.]

"So, I can hear his wishful thinking from eight hundred miles away."

Yun Shuo rolled his eyes in his heart and complained to the system, but on the surface he said in a friendly manner: "Since Master Luo Lan has changed his clothes, shall we go?"

Just as the soldiers behind Mina were about to catch up, Yun Shuo suddenly ordered, "Let them all go home."

"They are all my subordinates." Mina refused subconsciously.

"It's enough for Miss Mina to be under our protection, isn't it? We just want to go out, and it's inconvenient to take them with us." Yun Shuo said kindly and without giving any room for refusal. "Or are you afraid that we will kill you?"

Kill me? Mina subconsciously wanted to taunt, but thinking of Yun Shuo's previous threat, she suppressed the groan in her throat.

Just you? Even if I gave you three more courage, you wouldn't dare to kill me directly.

Apparently, Mina hadn't learned her lesson. After all, there's a difference between cutting off a person's finger and cutting off their head.

So she dismissed these young soldiers casually, without noticing the coming danger.

The group walked in a scattered manner, led by two nobles, and the team behind them was surrounded by two layers of ELO people, and the nobles led by the boss were sandwiched inside.

Gouzi was walking peacefully in the outer circle when he was suddenly stopped by his boss. "Hey, what's wrong with you guys in ELO? Are you afraid we'll run away, so you locked us in? Didn't you just say we're part of the ELO organization?"

[Ahem] Gouzi glanced at the ragged civilians beside his boss. Seeing they were still completely bewildered, he explained sheepishly, [We're supposed to pretend to be servants and follow our master out.]

Although the nobles don't usually go out for walks, and the fog is so thick today that the surviving guards outside can't see anything, compared to us, your attire is indeed a bit different from that of the noble servants.

The dog's words were not very hurtful, but they were extremely insulting.

On the surface, it seems that they are saying that their ELO costumes look like the costumes of noble servants, but what are the standards for the costumes of noble servants?

The most basic requirement of people is uniformity and neatness.

No matter what, it is unacceptable to sew a piece of cloth on the elbows and shoulders in advance, not to mention patching up a hole in the clothes. This would be laughed at in any noble family.

But these points are very common in ordinary people's homes, not to mention that some people wear clothes that are simply pieced together with several pieces of cloth.

Look at the ELO people's clothes, they are so uniform that anyone with a discerning eye can tell that they are from the same group.

The material of the clothes is so fine that even the servants of noble families may not wear such fabric.

But she was unwilling to just keep her mouth shut, so she turned her criticism on Yun Shuo again, trying to smooth over the awkwardness. "Then how dare your commander walk in front of us when he's dressed in black from head to toe? Isn't he afraid of being exposed?"

[Oh no! It's foggy, and everything is white. Suddenly, a dark, human-like thing floats out. I can't even tell if it's a ghost, let alone a person.]

In order to travel as quickly as possible, the two nobles sat in the carriage, while the people behind them ran back at full speed.

The boss is a middle-aged man after all. When people reach middle age, they are no longer able to do things, not to mention that the amount of exercise she did this morning is as much as the total amount of exercise she did in the whole year. She is too tired to say a few words and is too lazy to talk to the dog to avoid being hurt again.

The silence that had accumulated along the way was finally broken by Mina.

As soon as she reached the junction of the civilian area and the slums, she couldn't wait to open the carriage curtain and said to Yun Shuo, "We're here, I can go now."

Her head just stuck out carelessly, and Mina wanted so badly to go back quickly.

If possible, she would never get involved in this mess. Now she is not even sure whether her fingers can be reattached.

She was so confident that she never considered the possibility that she might not need to care about this finger that was destined to be useless in the future.

Mina waited impatiently for Yun Shuo's response, and fortunately, he answered quickly. Of course, it would have been even better if he had answered with words instead of bullets.

After Mina finished speaking, Yun Shuo pulled out his gun.

The bullet penetrated the skull, and the huge force directly flipped over half of Mina's skull. The bones flew out straight, and the remaining part was exposed bloody.

The drowsy Luo Lan was awakened by the sound of gunfire. When she opened her eyes, most of Mina's body fell outside. She could only see the lower half of her body.

Although she didn't see the other person's death directly, she knew that Mina was definitely dead. As for how she died, she didn't care, nor did she have the courage to care.

Luo Lan's blood ran cold. She could almost hear the sound of her eardrums beating in her ears. Could it be her brain beating, or her heart?

Her mind was so confused that she started to think about things that made no sense at all.

Soon, she saw Mina's body move, as if someone was dragging her out.

Before Mina completely left the carriage, she touched Luo Lan's arm with her calf - it was still warm, Mina's body had not yet cooled down, as if she was still alive.

This horrifying illusion made Luo Lan feel that she was too frightened. She couldn't faint at all, and was only accompanied by a drowsy and nauseous feeling.

Yun Shuo didn't continue to scare her. He just stood outside and said to the inside: "Tell Setash about Mina's death. Tell him that if he has any plans next time, he should discuss it with me. After all, we are allies."

"For example, this time, if he had discussed it with me, we could have reached a perfect cooperation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up with such a complete loss."

Yun Shuo stopped using those hypocritical honorifics and said, "Luo Lan, I hope this will make you realize that sometimes not being famous is the best way to save your life."

Mina's death was Yun Shuo's warning to Setash.

If you think the death of a commoner doesn't matter, then I can also think the death of a noble doesn't matter.

Moreover, if you choose to harm my interests for your own benefit without any reason, notice or negotiation, then I will also not care about my own interests and take a series of actions solely to harm your interests.

We at ELO are not used to doing things that harm others and ourselves, but we can get used to it.

Luo Lan nodded silently. Her mind was in a mess and the only thing she knew to do was to write down what Yun Shuo asked her to convey to Sai Taishi.

So she didn't even consider that Yun Shuo didn't have X-ray vision and couldn't see her movements through the wooden board. She only knew that she ordered the frightened driver to turn the car around and go back.

The dog's face was filled with shock, his mouth was so wide open that a light bulb could be stuffed in it.

He pointed at the flying skull with a trembling hand, "No, is this even broadcastable? Don't tell me, you're so ugly! 'Crisis of Faith' is 18+."

【This reminds me of an old friend. 】

[As I've said before, your head's acuity needs to be maxed out, otherwise you won't be able to dodge.]

I've finally seen through it. Yun Shuo is the big boss. Whenever a player gets into trouble, he comes to the rescue. On Ella's side, you have to fight your way through the storyline, one blade at a time. ELO is different. The main theme is a Buddhist lifestyle, with Big Daddy taking care of everything.

[Player: I'm going to rebel! I'm a member of the ELO organization, but I didn't obey orders. I wanted to go out and have fun on my own, and I almost got myself killed!]

Yun Shuo: Hey, Dad has brought a huge army to rescue you. Those who help you, I'll reward you! Those who want to kill you, I'll kill you!

[Yun Shuo: Don't worry, even if the sky falls, we will help you hold it up.]

[Okay, okay, Yun Shuo will take care of everything. We players will just be responsible for farming and doing the work.]

[Speaking of which, Mina just came up and cursed, Gouzi went up and had his fingers chopped off, and Yun Shuo took advantage of her and then shot her dead. Isn't that a bit too cruel?]

[After all, the situations are different. Ren Yunshuo is tough, and you're soft. He's always seeking revenge, and you flatter everyone you meet. How can you compare them?]

[Can you please finish watching the whole story? Mina's death is obviously a foreshadowing. ]

[Yun Shuo usually doesn't kill people at random. If he does, it must mean that the person deserves to die.]

[I said there was definitely more than one Yun Shuo dog in the live studio.]

[Please, some people, please take a look at the situation. This is the ELO camp's live broadcast room. If you want to praise your master, go find someone from your own camp.]

[This ELO commander is clearly not in the right.]

"You're from Ella's camp, right? I'm telling you, Ren Yunshuo is helping you. This Mina is reselling your family's weapons, why don't you kneel down and thank her?"

Gou Zi was also quite surprised. There were a lot of people in the live broadcast room today. He hadn't noticed it before and was just busy chatting with people.

"What's going on? Why is ELO suddenly so popular?"

【Farming is still fun. 】

[When you're farming and find someone trying to steal your land, it's even more fun if you can openly take their land.]

Gouzi, go learn from others. How come they can become the most popular by farming, but you are so busy farming that everyone in the live broadcast room is scolding you, Palu?

[Others have already painted welfare girls on the wall, but some people are still there with "three disciplines and eight points of attention."]

[You need to learn to use your imagination. Gouzi made all matchboxes, and even KUN next door made one. That's so annoying.]

[The people next door have already started promoting the theory that "nobles are not human beings, they were born to be ornaments hanging on streetlights", and I'm still waiting here for my dad to clean up my mess.]

"No, what's wrong with them being happy?" Gou Zi said, his defense broken. "They are too extreme. They should just be boiled like a frog in warm water like me. They are not afraid that Yun Shuo will not accept their ideas."

[I accepted it. Not only did I accept it, but my favorability rating is higher than yours.]

【Lululu, Yun Shuo doesn't want you anymore. 】

Chapter 76: I'm Really Broken

"Sir Setash, today's afternoon tea is indeed delicious, but it's a pity that I... can't swallow it." Fati put down the black teacup in her hand. Although there was a circle of lip marks on the rim of the cup, she didn't seem to have swallowed much of the tea in the cup.

There was still a habitual smile on the corner of her lips, but the fear that occasionally flashed in her eyes had long been grasped by Setash and carefully studied.

"You don't have to be so wary of me." Setash's eyes were gentle, and his slightly furrowed brows disguised a hint of confusion. "I'm truly sorry that this tea party has caused you any discomfort."

A pretentious jackal. As expected, what good could a surviving heir be?

Fati found it ridiculous to think that he had been deceived and had joked with his friends about Setash's kindness.

It is obvious that he is a killer just like me, but just because he is a man and has a reputation of being "kind and stupid", I really think that he is an idiot who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and exudes useless kindness, and is destined to become a vassal of others.

Fati relaxed his brows and his expression became indifferent, no longer revealing any unnecessary emotions. "You know, I don't like gambling."

"In one's lifetime, there are not many opportunities to achieve success overnight." Setash raised his eyes and warned.

"I've never been a courageous person since I was a child. I've always been restrained in doing things, and I don't have the ambition to achieve great things. The most I want is just to live an ordinary life."

Fati's self-destructive words did not make Setash want to let her go. He continued to press her, "Are you afraid to gamble, or do you think I will definitely lose?"

"Do you remember your last party?" Fati didn't answer directly. "My good friend Mina lost miserably at that party, but she was so confident until the outcome was revealed."

Fati said pointedly, "At that time, she naively thought she had everything under control, so she arrogantly gambled everything she had. In the end, she lost everything and was humiliated. With her experience as a lesson, how could I dare to do such a thing?"

Fati almost threw the six big words "I don't believe you can win" in Setash's face, but Setash was not in a hurry. He was waiting for good news from Luo Lan.

So, he continued slowly, "Times have changed. Old things should be buried in the ground, and we are the new masters of this land."

"Your Excellency Setash's words make sense, but they are somewhat overstepping the mark. Although the old city lord is dead and the current city lord of Ella is indeed young and promising, it is still unwise to step on one and praise the other."

"Your Excellency Fati knows that this is not what I meant."

"Of course, how could Lord Setash have such disrespectful intentions?"

"Are you from the city lord's side?"

"You're joking. I'm a noble from Cori City. Why should I be so divided into two groups?"

Fati was as slippery as a loach. No matter how Setash hinted, he would not take the bait. He just swam there motionless, allowing Setash to see him but not catch him.
