Chapter 71 Chapter 70·"Come up, Su Mingan"

  【After being convinced that we are not wrong, we are not angry. 】

　　　　When one sees the opposite, we begin to doubt. 】

　　【When thousands of people shouted that this was a mistake, we began to deviate. 】

  【But we are not angry. 】

　　【The sentence "The truth is in the hands of a few people"...】

　　…It is being recognized by most people. 】

  【—Excerpted from World Forum·"Why We Endure So Far"】

 …

 Lu Shu, Aini, Hubert, Mizushima Kawakawa, Avril Lavigne, Alauddin…

 People of all nationalities and colors stand on the same stage, wearing different professional equipment.

Metal armor, modern mechas, magic robes embroidered with mysterious patterns... Since this is the first spontaneous gathering of players since entering the world game, it looks extremely formal.

Yu Ruohe has been looking for a figure.

...Just three hours ago, the president of the Lighthouse Guild was suddenly transferred to Su Ming'an by Lu Shu.

Just two hours ago, Sora Mizushima, who was third on the list, had a fierce dispute with Su Mingan, and even issued a challenge letter that shocked the world.

“—Welcome everyone to join the First Guild, and thank you all for coming here.”

 The first person to speak was Aini. Although he was defeated by Su Mingan in the first world, after being baptized in the second world, he regained people's trust. As the vice president of the guild, he gave a speech without any problem:

“—The world game that disrupted all human plans has passed two worlds. It is undeniable that this is a disaster, but it is also an opportunity for human beings to glimpse the unknown future and break through themselves..."

His words are official, but his tone is very confident, with a unique speaker's temperament. After all, he was the heir to a Fortune 500 company, so there is no problem with public speaking.

　　Many players below have already started live broadcasting, and the internal speech of the First Guild naturally attracts the attention of other players.

Yu Ruohe was a person who had had close contact with Su Ming'an. Even though her strength was not up to standard, she was admitted to the Lighthouse Guild as an exception. She was starting a live broadcast to record Aini's speech while responding to the audience.

　　【Come, come, come and see my Aini! He looks really different. Is this breaking and then standing? 】

I saw Ms. Mizushimagawa’s condemnation. She was really cool, but she should have spoken out boldly. 】

  【How do you change your ideas? Apparently there are so many people in the second world who like Brother Ming An...】

　　【There are so many people on the wall, and I don't even know that I am already in the public opinion, and I am being led by the nose. It's quite funny. 】

　　【I read Mizushimakawa's condemnation post. It smells like moral kidnapping, but some people actually like it? ? ? 】

　　…What does Miss Yu Ruohe think? You seem to have had some contact with Su Mingan, right? 】

These players seem to have been suppressed for a long time, and now the world forum is full of such words. People from the Lighthouse faction and non-Lighthouse factions quarreled, using Mizushima Kawakora's post as a battlefield, and the forum was filled with chaos.

Some people say that it would be great if players like Su Mingan did not exist. Otherwise, the World Forum would not be arguing about him all day long. Every time he opened a post, it would be full of his controversies. The World Forum would almost become "Ming'an". "An forum", it gives me a headache just looking at it.

 Some people even think that Su Mingan is an undercover agent sent by the game organizer. His foresight and foresight often make people confused, as if he knows the entire copy in advance.

Of course, some people are speaking for Su Mingan. They believe that Su Mingan is worthy of his name and his dungeon route is the best. Why not allow an ordinary person to be the first?

 Some people say that this is a change caused by the great changes in the world and class changes, and it is a normal thing. A student who wants to be the "number one player" will indeed experience such pressure from public opinion, which is reasonable.

 But no matter what, everyone was in a quarrel.

Yu Ruohe listened silently to Aini's impassioned speech on the stage, looked at the forum posts and the passing barrages, and didn't know what to say.

In fact, she should be regarded as the first player to come into contact with Su Ming'an. It is precisely because of this factor that her popularity in the live broadcast room is much higher than that of other ordinary players. People often come up to her and ask her what Su Ming'an was like in the beginning. , she also patiently described it.

 “He was actually... quite gentle at first.”

Seeing that the barrage started to quarrel again, she said: "He protected me in the apocalyptic dungeon until the end. I also taught him marksmanship. He really seems to be just a student. He is actually, actually..."

 Then she couldn't speak anymore.

 …It was obviously normal at first.

 But when she saw how he behaved later, she found that this man had changed at some point.

It’s like being burdened with too many things, weighing down a person and gradually becoming silent. It’s also like there are too many eyes gathered on the person, making it impossible for many thoughts to be blurted out freely.

 …What exactly changed him?

It seems that he has changed since Yueyue died.

 No...maybe it was earlier...

 …

After Aini's speech ended, Aini seemed to want Lu Shu to say a few words, but when he turned around, he found that he had already hid directly off the stage.

“Let me say a few words.” Sora Mizushima took the microphone.

Aini didn't want her to say it. After all, he felt that the current occasion was the first speech of the First Guild, and it was not suitable for her to say something similar to the kind of provoking remarks on the forum. But considering that the duel was about to start, she just let it go. She did.

 “Be careful.” Aini whispered.

“Bang bang.” Mizushima Kawakawa patted the microphone and tried the sound. Facing the real eyes of more than 10,000 people and the eyes of countless people through the live broadcast room, he straightened his back.

"...I think that as the strongest person...at least the strongest person in everyone's eyes, the existence that is awarded the title of the number one player, does not seek to be bright and righteous, at least it should be stable and safe." She slowly said As he spoke, his voice was as sweet as flowing water, but his words were clear and bright. He stood on the stage without any stage fright: "I have explained all the processes on the forum, so there is no need to say more now. I want to defeat him in the eyes of hundreds of millions of people, I want to prove that he is not suitable to be the number one player in everyone's eyes - come up, Su Mingan."
