Chapter 714 – The Crown Princes Rule (2/2)
Yan Zhao coughed and loudly said, “Old Liu Gong, get to the point. Everyone’s been waiting for a long time. Looks like the impatient ones like Ye Lai can’t wait any longer.”
Liu Gong laughed and warmly said, “Yes, we were the ones that arrived late. I’m truly sorry. Then let me get to it.”
I cleared his throat. It was as though we were about to listen to a speech from a politician. He then said, “The China Virtual Board was founded in 2015. Our main goal is to govern the Internet. Destiny is one of our most important priorities. As everyone knows, we have grown into the year 2017, and the competitions that we can attend are not limited to sports any longer. One of our more important jobs is organizing the Virtual Competitions. And so, for the sake of the nation’s honor and for the sake of our mission, we have made Destiny the Chinese Server Battles HQ. We cannot let down the millions of gamer fans.”
He coughed a few times and then continued, “Today, I have invited everyone here so that we may create an alliance. Once the country battles begin, we cannot fight amongst each other any longer and we must face our spear points to the enemy outside. Each guildmaster here is a warrior of Tian Ling City. You are the talent and pride of Tian Ling City. I, Liu Gong, am just a newbie in this game, and already I feel respect and esteem for everyone’s strength. Without dragging on, I’ll get to the point. Today, I am here for one thing, everyone’s vote and support to create an alliance in the Chinese virtual world. Everyone here in favor of this, please raise your hand.”
Everyone hesitated for a moment. Liu Gong was the first to raise his hand. Rumor was the second.
Yan Zhao Warrior and Mu Xuan both raised their hands. After all, this wasn’t a bad thing.
I thought about it for a moment and raised my own hand.
Soon after, everyone else also raised their hand. It was practically a unanimous vote.
Liu Gong smiled and heartily said, “Thank you everyone for your support. Next, let us pick out the general for the China Battles. Later on in the virtual battles, he will be the one to determine the overall strategy. Every guild that joins this alliance must listen to his every command. This is the only way that the Chinese Servers’ strength will grow explosively. Come, let’s nominate some people!”
Everyone all listed some names. Finally, the top five names were Fang Ge Que, Q-Sword, Jian Feng Han, Mu Xuan, and I. They were all guildmasters of the large guilds.
Liu Gong continued, “Today, I will bear witness. Everyone vote!”
I rubbed my nose, “Do I need to campaign for votes?”
Wan Er smiled, “Do you really want to become the head of the China Server Battles?”
I shook my head, “Nope.”
“Then don’t….”
Not far from us,Q-Sword and Jian Feng Han were both campaigning for votes. Fang Ge Que’s subordinate, Enchanted Painting and Lu Chun Yang were both talking about something. Soon after, they each held a vote. Liu Gong himself collected all of the ballots. After a few minutes, he waved his hand over it and the results appeared before everyone——
Fang Ge Que had the absolute upper hand. What I had not expected was that I actually got 16 ballots. That wasn’t bad. Maybe, when [Zhan Long] beat the Greedy Wolf Raiders, we had actually increased our reputation quite a bit? And so all of the medium level guilds had voted for me. That should be why….
Liu Gong smiled at the results, “Looks like the mage Fang Ge Que is truly the king in everyone’s hearts. Right now, I will announce that Fang Ge Que will be the commanding general of the Chinese Servers.”
As he said that, Liu Gong turned around to looked at Rumor, “Besides that, The Chinese Virtual Board’s representative will be Rumor. The guild he leads, Run Like Fire will provide support in the Chinese Battlefields. He will also be our spokesperson and will take on the position as deputy in command. Furthermore, he will represent our voice. I hope that everyone here will support him. This kid is still inexperienced. Everyone here is among the cream of the crop in Tian Ling City and so I hope you will look after him~~”
Ye Lai raised his battle axe and smiled, “Brother Liu Tong, this Liu Chan, who is he to you?”
Liu Gong stiffened and smiled, “He’s my nephew.”
Ye Lai was a very stubborn person and he chuckled, “Oh, so it was like that. You’ve named Fang Ge Que as the commander in chief of the China Battles, and then you set him up with a deputy commander. This means that if Fang Ge Que, the commander, dies in battle, then you’ll send out your crown prince to lead the troops?”
My heart nearly jumped out of my throat. Ye Lai that b*st*rd actually talked without thinking. He’s gonna die. He’s gonna die….
Liu Gong’s face twitched. He then covered some of his embarrassment, but candidly said, “That was never my intention. It’s just that our board needs some kind of spokesperson. As long as we have a voice in the matters, we won’t go on the wrong path in this new type of game, isn’t that right?”
Ye Lai laughed, “Is it possible for a type of game to go down the wrong path? I find this funny. You all want to interfere with our matters. What the f*ck does it matter to you what we players do in our free time?”
Li Gong was stunned and sternly replied, “Ye Lai, what are you saying?”
I walked up and grabbed Ye Lai’s shoulder, “Shut up!”
I then looked towards Liu Gong and smiled, “Ye Lai is a rather hot tempered person. I hope that Mr. Liu won’t take it to heart. [Zhan Long] and [Judgement] have already created an alliance, and we will absolutely follow Fang Ge Que’s orders. Please, do not worry about that!”
Liu Gong rubbed his nose, “Seeing as guildmaster Xiao Yao Zi Zai said that, then it’s fine. Everyone work together and work hard!”
I have cleverly chosen my words specifically for this purpose. [Zhan Long] and [Judgement] may follow the orders of Fang Ge Que, but that did not obligate us to follow the orders of Rumor.
