MMORPG: Crowd Control

As the soldiers escorted Gazolth, Lei Zhen went ahead and saw the army platoons standing still, waiting for further instructions.

"How does this look, Chancellor?" Evan came from out of nowhere and asked.

"Not bad, the soldiers are well trained and disciplined. As expected of the soldiers of Yors Castle." Lei Zhen praised sincerely.

He was truly impressed by the morale and discipline of the soldiers, to a point that he didn't even think it was possible in the first place.

"I'm glad that the soldiers were up to your standard, Chancellor." Evan smiled brightly.

"Well, you're the training commander, so it's a given that the soldiers under you would be well-trained."

"You're praising me too much for my credit, Chancellor. Clearly, it's because of your appearance and management that we became successful."

Lei Zhen twitched his brows slightly. There should be a limit to bootlicking and this Evan went too far.

How was it thanks to him when he appeared late into the game?

Nevertheless, Lei Zhen didn't try to correct Evan since it would be regarded as rude and him being arrogant.

Sometime later, Lei Zhen gathered everyone and saw a massive army laying in a neat formation.

The visitors from elsewhere were dumbfounded when they saw this majestic scene.

"Isn't that the mysterious Chancellor that stopped the civil war from the two deceased princes?"

"Yeah, what is he planning to do with those large armies?"

"Hmm, I've heard rumors that the cause of the two princes to rebel was because of some dark magic related to a black mage. I bet the Chancellor is going to capture the black mage for vengeance."

As the passersby walked toward the entrance of Yors Castle, they were all guessing the motive of Lei Zhen and sure enough, the rumor that he deliberately spread had started to bear fruit.

'The more people know about this, the bigger this event will become.' Lei Zhen thought.

It was not confidence that caused him to spread such rumors, but because of the preparation that he had done behind the scenes.

When you're fully prepared for something, then it's only correct to predict the result to be fruitful.

Of course, the main point was to grab attention from everywhere and when they succeed, the neighboring countries wouldn't dare to invade Yors Castle, thinking that it was weakened because of the civil war.

This was killing two birds with one stone, and saving him much effort from potential invaders in the future.

While Lei Zhen was organizing the armies and handing out the necessary instructions, Griselda walked over with a dazed expression.

"Although this seems impressive, why do I feel like you're withholding something?" She asked confusingly.

The massive army in front of her was impressive, to say the least for a player to obtain, but somehow, she felt that was not what all Lei Zhen was capable of.

In fact, she believed he had something else in mind as well but was not utilizing it for some reason. Call it an intuitive feeling, but almost all the time, a woman's intuition is correct.

Meanwhile, Lei Zhen was about to call her a fortune-teller for knowing he was withholding something without showing it to anyone.

'How the hell did she know?' He wondered silently.

"It doesn't matter for the time being, Griselda." After much thinking, that was the best response he could have come up with to brush the topic aside.

"Oh please, now I'm positive that you are trying to do something, but aren't doing it because of some factor." Griselda pestered, clearly wanting to know the details like some gossip woman.

Being pestered by her constantly and knowing her personality, Lei Zhen finally gave in and told her about the plan of making a live stream account.

To gain popularity for their guild, Zero Fear, and to improve traction plus attention from the world. Those could be achieved through live streaming, but it was a shame that he had no experience in it.

And there was no way he would bother asking Shan Lin for help given their current poor relationship.

"Hmm, live streaming to gain traction. As expected, this is totally in style with your methods. Always seeking the maximum profit." Griselda chuckled softly.

"So what if I plan on doing it or not. I'm not an expert in it so there's no way for it to be successful."

"Tsk, that's only for you, but not for me."

"You have a live stream account to stream?" Lei Zhen asked.

"Of course not, but I can easily make one," Griselda smirked, flexing her ability. "With my celebrity status, as long as I create one and begin streaming, I can guarantee an influx of millions of players to watch me play."

"I see… and which platform do you plan to create the account in? Hit Tube?"

"Definitely not Hit Tube. That platform is owned by the Shan Corporation and I have no interest in helping them at all." Griselda sneered coldly.

"Do you have some beef with the Shan Corporation?" Lei Zhen asked, seemingly interested in this topic.

After all, Shan Lin's background was from the Shan Corporation which became a major company in recent years.

He recalled being pestered by Shan Lin once to become a streamer for Hit Tube and that he could easily be verified by him, meaning Shan Lin might be the CEO of it or have power equivalent to it.

"The Hit Tube streaming platform is a scam that entrapped streamers to be forever stuck with them. And although it's a popular platform, the cons were not worth the risk except for the poor people." Griselda explained.

Lei Zhen nodded his head, an act of acknowledging that he was listening. But secretly, his impression of Shan Lin continued to decrease drastically.

"Then which streaming platform are you going to be on if you are to create one?" He then asked.

"Heh, it has to be the recent streaming platform created by a subsidiary of mine, Prime Tv." Griselda patted her chest and said excitedly.
