“…”
The two announcements were alternating between each other for a total of three times. Wang Yu was flabbergasted and stood there in utter disbelief for almost ten seconds.
“F**k! What is going on, why are they not giving us our reward?” Ming Du and Vainglory both held in head their hands and cried out. They had slogged hard during the championships and were eagerly looking forward to their much-deserved reward. This was just a big bucket of cold water being poured over their hopes.
“What is this accusation about harassing male players? Who even charged us with this?” Besides the rewards, Wang Yu and Boson were people that were concerned with their reputation. After all, Wang Yu was much a well-recognised player. It did not reflect well on him if people thought he was a player that went to harass other male players…
Those male players that harassed female players would be thought of as lechers. But even worse, male players who harassed male players were simply perverts.
In fact, Wang Yu, Boson and the rest of the male players in the team still had it easy. For Yang Nuo and Ling Longmeng, the accusation was for more damaging… They were after all ladies and getting accused of harassing male players sullied their reputation.
“F*ck, this is really bad…” Ling Longmeng shook her head furiously and sighed. Yang Nuo even had thoughts of withdrawing from the team to protect her sanity and reputation.
Players from all over were deeply in discussion over the fresh revelation, “F*ck, this Team A Murder Of Crows are so audacious. They even hit on guys?”
“It is not just guys. I heard they even do it with animals…”
“Really? They even do it with small animals?”
“Of course! I have a friend who saw it with his own eyes,” a player who was spreading false rumours said adamantly to another.
Within this short instant, Team A Murder of Crows’ reputation had hit rock bottom… Although Quan Zhen Sect had previous exploits and subsequently ended up on the world announcement, those deeds were easily forgotten.
This was different compared to the matter of killing a BOSS and where it was a daily occurrence on the world announcement… If nothing were to change, this was going to be a massive dishonour that would follow Team A Murder Of Crows forever.
A lot of people wanted to make it famous in the online gaming circle. But these people were likely to be one-hit wonders and easily forgotten. Team A Murder of Crows definitely struck jackpot this time. This was a team people were unlikely to forget for a long time.
As a result of this harassment incident, this sparked off a series of harassment cases against male players. The perpetrators were often very vicious and perverted… These offenders were not let off likely like Team A Murder of Crows. They had their ID deleted and ceased to play the game.
The players from Quan Zhen Sect were startled and confused about the whole matter.
Wang Yu asked Fearless, “We have done similar things before, but why were we only warned by the system this time?”
“Someone should have probably reported us this time,” Fearless replied quickly.
“Report…” Wang Yu also did not know how to answer Fearless.
When Lucifer was indiscriminately bully others, it had incurred the ire of the multitude of players. Many players should have reported his actions then. Lucifer’s actions had definitely cross a moral boundary. If the system was computerised, there should have been a code of conduct it was supposed to impose on players. Why was Lucifer only punished for his infractions at this point in time?
Just as the others were still trying to wrap their heads around the situation, Fearless gnash his teeth and looked towards Team Satan, “If I didn’t guess wrongly, it was probably Team Satan who reported us.”
“F*ck, are they sick?” Ming Du blurted out.
In order to avenge themselves, they dragged others down with them. This self-harming behaviour was truly mind-boggling.
Fearless shook his head and replied, “They are not sick; they probably wanted to report us for stealing their equipment but did not expect to be found out themselves.”
“…” Upon hearing Fearless words, the whole group was silent and gazed towards Team Satan. Unsurprisingly, the players in Team Satan harboured a tinge of pity in their rage-filled eyes.
Ming Du glared hard at Lucifer and spat out in anger, “F*ck you, because of you degenerates, I have lost my championship rewards.”
Wang Yu slightly grinned and said, “That’s enough, didn’t they provide us with a whole bunch of top tier equipment… We need to learn to be contented. You must know that even the championship rewards are not as lavish as this equipment.”
Wang Yu was indeed correct in his assessment. The system’s championship rewards were standard. If the system rewarded the winning team with one level 40 Obsidian equipment each, that would definitely be very generous of it already. However, the Quan Zhen Sect had already fleeced Team Satan of ten full sets of Obsidian equipment. It was clear they already had the better end of the deal.
But what kind of people were they from the Quan Zhen Sect? They were constantly trying to take advantage of others. From this incident, one could see that if they did not get their way in things they would count it as a loss. This was even more so as they saw their rewards being denied right in front of their eyes.
The members from Quan Zhen Sect could not blame the judgement of the system so they directed the full force of their anger on Team Satan.
“You people better watch out!”
“You people better watch out!”
Ming Du turned his head and growled threateningly at Team Satan. What was surprising that Team Satan was directing his exact words back to him.
Lucifer then directed his men to leave the arena.
As the award ceremony concluded, the guild leader of Team Peaceful Ray Of Sunshine walked towards Team A Murder Of Crows.
Ray Of Sunshine approached Wang Yu and grinned widely, “Little handsome guy, to think you are so fierce. It was not at all embarrassing to have lost to you guys.”
This woman knew how to salvage something out of a bad situation. They had lost so badly yet she was trying to find a sliver of hope out of it.
Wang Yu returned the cordial smile to the other party but this hid the true unspoken criticisms in his heart. Wang Yu did not want to reciprocate Ray of Sunshine with an unkind tone.
“Well said! Well said! You guys are pretty strong yourself.” Wang Yu rushed to return Ray of Sunshine’s greetings.
Wilted Old Tree who was at the side smiled and said, “We know our standards best. You guys need to be careful, this Lucifer still has tricks up his sleeve.”
“Oh? He still has equipment to give us?” Ming Du heard his words and his eyes lit up
