Heroes' Prison

Chapter 1062 - 1006 Avalanche

Many of those making the demands are high-ranking members of famous guilds in China, significant figures who could start a media earthquake with a single move. Now, nearly all of them have gathered around Huang Yi, putting pressure on him together.

At this moment, the forum has gone crazy, with countless people posting, furiously cursing Huang Yi and the others, calling them cowards, demanding they immediately go out to fight the enemy.

Not only is Huang Yi facing pressure, but the garrisoned troops led by Dao Feng, Thunder God, and Sharp Sword, as well as thousands of other guilds, are also under tremendous public pressure.

In other border areas of the Hero Empire, some players have already disobeyed orders and gone out on their own to fight the enemy.

The entire Hero Legion is being crushed by public opinion and is on the verge of collapse. Huang Yi’s authority is facing unprecedented challenges!

Huang Yi frowned, knowing this was a trap set by the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine, intended to lure him out to be killed by the Demigod powerhouses of the Demon Clan.

Long ago, he realized that the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine, like Desire Arises from the Heart, had colluded with the Invading Army and even tried to destroy the Hero Guild together, but was thwarted by Huang Yi and failed.

But outsiders didn’t know this and were deceived by the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine, now forcing Huang Yi into the trap.

So, Huang Yi simply activated Lord Mode, broadcasting a declaration to over a billion players across the vast Hero Empire. His solemn voice echoed throughout the Hero Empire—

"Friends, I am the King of the Hero Empire—God of Slaughter. I know many people, through various means, have heard of the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine’s clash with the Invading Army and his brilliant victories and want to go out to fight. But I can clearly tell everyone that this is a trap. The Second Brother Who Studies Medicine, like Desire Arises from the Heart before him, has long been colluding with the Invading Army. What they are doing now is to lure us out. The Demon Clan’s masters, even the Demigod powerhouses, still remain on Hero’s Continent. As soon as we go out, there’s a chance of being killed by them. Furthermore, fighting the Invading Army now is of no help to the outcome of the national war. Please be rational and patiently wait for the end of the national war. Then, I will provide an explanation."

Huang Yi’s words echoed in every city, village, and corner of the Hero Empire.

The message was also relayed through journalists’ broadcasts, reaching every person worldwide who was watching this national war.

The next moment, the world was in an uproar!

Huang Yi actually said that the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine was a traitor!

The Second Brother Who Studies Medicine is a renowned master player in the China region and has even received National Honor Points. Besides Huang Yi and the other super-first-class masters, the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine is the most famous.

If someone else had said this, people wouldn’t believe it, but since it was revealed by Huang Yi himself, it raises suspicions. Furthermore, with the precedent of Desire Arises from the Heart, it’s not impossible for the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine to be a traitor.

At this moment, a reporter near Huang Yi immediately stepped forward, coming up to him and directly asked: "God of Slaughter, hello! I am Third Brother Muye, a reporter from the news studio. You just said the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine has colluded with the Invading Army. Do you have any evidence for such explosive news?"

All other players and journalists held their breath, staring intently at Huang Yi, waiting for his answer.

Huang Yi nodded and said, "I have evidence, but it’s not convenient to reveal it now. I’ll publish the evidence at the most suitable time."

The reporter was a bit disappointed and somewhat dissatisfied, saying, "At such a critical moment in the national war, the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine leads his troops and risks their lives to fight the Invading Army to the death. Yet you say he’s a traitor without presenting direct evidence, which makes people doubt your motives."

"Indeed!" Another reporter also looked at Huang Yi with ill will, saying, "God of Slaughter, could it be that you see the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine as a threat to your position, so you deliberately throw out this news to slander him? Under these circumstances, no matter how you look at it, the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine is a hero for our Chinese players. Yet you, on the other hand, seem like a coward, hiding in the Hero Empire and not daring to go out."

"God of Slaughter, I know why you don’t dare to go out. It’s because you’re afraid of dying and losing levels! After all, you’re ranked first on the World Rankings board, and if you go out and die, the loss would be more severe than for others."

At this point, many players began to look at Huang Yi with skeptical eyes.

Huang Yi pressed his lips tightly and did not speak.

He found it hard to refute unless he immediately revealed the evidence, but now was not the most appropriate time, as it would go against his plan.

"God of Slaughter, fine if you’re cowardly, but to slander the Second Brother Who Studies Medicine, I didn’t expect you to be such a person. I must have misjudged you. Our Skeleton Guild is full of men with spirit, and we won’t stay here cowardly with you." At this time, a player wearing a black hooded robe, thin as a skeleton, shook his head disappointedly.

His name is Skeleton, the president of the Skeleton Guild, which ranks within the top hundred guilds in the China region, making it quite a prominent power.

Skeleton stood tall and called to the group behind him, "Brothers of the Skeleton Guild, follow me to charge out! Before the national war fails, we must let those invading armies taste our power!"

After saying this, he led the charge toward the border, and the players of the Skeleton Guild immediately followed him in a tidal wave heading beyond the border line.

Soon, the players from the Skeleton Guild charged out of the Hero Empire and quickly disappeared into the distance.

With the Skeletons leading the way, the entire stationed legion seemed to react like a chain reaction. The presidents of one guild after another began to lead their forces, surging out in grandiose waves—

"Brothers of the Jueke Guild, charge out with me!"

"Brothers and sisters of the Han Zhaoyuan Guild, let’s go out and have a fierce fight with the invading army!"

"Brothers of Yuwen Dang, none of us are cowards! Let’s charge together!"

"Battlefield Group of the Ye Zhuohua Guild, born for the battlefield, now is the time to fulfill our final mission!"

...

One guild after another quickly left the Hero Empire, leading countless forces out.

The boundless stationed army lost control rapidly, like an avalanche.

"Dear viewers, we are now very pleased to see one Chinese guild after another, charging out with tremendous spirit to fight to the death with the invading army. Let us remember the names of these guilds, they are all fighting for the dignity of Chinese players..." Reporters scattered everywhere began to praise these guilds.

Huang Yi watched this chaotic scene and sighed inwardly, but said nothing to stop it.

The forces of these guilds were merely seeking refuge in the Hero Empire and did not necessarily have to follow his orders, especially at such a time when public opinion was overwhelmingly against him.

Soon, only a sparse few forces were left beside Huang Yi, and it became much quieter.

Among them, the forces of the Hero Guild made up the vast majority; this was his own power. Members who had thwarted countless challenges and setbacks with him unconditionally trusted him.

There were also some forces that were either in good relationship with Huang Yi, had benefited from him, were very rational, or still chose to trust him. These included the Lone Army Guild under Dugu Lengcang, the Styx Sect Guild, the Night Rain Eastcoming Guild, and the Clumsy Pig Guild, and others.

At this moment, a man with a pig’s head on a human body, stout in stature and holding a rake, approached Huang Yi, patted him on the shoulder, and encouraged, "God of Slaughter, please do not be upset about such things, we trust you very much. Previously, you led us to victory and even contributed 10 points of National Honor Points. Without you, we would have lost this national war long ago and couldn’t have held on until now. I believe you have your reason for arranging things this way today, we Clumsy Pig Guild look up to you!"

This man was the president of the Clumsy Pig Guild, ranked among the top 20 in China — the chubby little pig. Not long ago, when Huang Yi left the Hero Empire to kill the Dark Priest, he had saved his guild in passing.

"Our Night Rain Eastcoming Guild isn’t a big guild, we were almost wiped out by the invading army, thanks to God of Slaughter’s timely rescue. My brothers and I will swear to follow Big Brother God of Slaughter to the death!" said Nangong Yu, president of the Night Rain Eastcoming Guild, excitedly.

Diesu Qiufeng, the president of the Styx Sect Guild, also stepped forward and said, "God of Slaughter, when you went to the Land of Dongying to rescue hostages and stayed behind to block the Japanese players so we could retreat, it was evident you are no coward. Those media are just saying anything to attract attention."

"Yes, yes, I was captured by Miyamoto Musashi and taken to the Land of Dongying, if not for God of Slaughter’s rescue, I wouldn’t know how to get through that crisis."

...

The remaining forces all stepped forward to comfort Huang Yi.

Every warm word formed a sharp contrast with the previous mocking and gossiping about Huang Yi.

In such a lonely moment opposing public opinion, many people still chose to believe in him.

Huang Yi looked around at everyone, nodded, and said, "Thank you for choosing to believe in me! I can clearly tell you that if you are willing to follow my plan, you will definitely gain far more than those other guilds! Next, let us quietly wait for the national war to end!"

Next, everyone stayed in place and waited quietly.

No matter how fierce the external public opinion attacks, no matter how harsh the words of those cursing them, no matter how the public urged them to act, they stood steadfastly.

This was because it was a plan proposed by the God of Slaughter!

As long as it was his plan, no matter what it was, it was enough to make them believe unconditionally!
