Let's Squander A Billion First!

The Good Person Card is messing around; sooner or later, people will find out and drag it away to be locked up.

Locking up is something only I can do. How can I let others do it?!

[Private Chat] Qin Luo: I just wanted to help you.

[Private Chat] One Step Loses a Billion: If you mess around, I won’t come back.

[Private Chat] Qin Luo: ...

Even if you don’t come back, I can make you return.

-

[System Message] Player ’One Step Loses a Billion’ has issued a bounty against player ’Guoguo’, bounty of 10,000 gold, unlimited attempts, and time.

The players near the incident site saw this message, and someone exclaimed, "What the heck."

At this moment, Chuzheng had already run to the most crowded place, Guoguo might have been intimidated by the crowd and didn’t dare to rush over.

There’s no real logic in the gaming world.

Sometimes an epic battle might just start because two strangers glanced at each other.

"What are you hiding for? Come out if you’ve got the guts!" Guoguo shouted at Chuzheng.

"Why should I come out?" Chuzheng stood at the back, aura fully unleashed, not losing a bit: "I’m a zero-level account, anyone knows it’s as easy as cutting tofu to kill me. I won’t blame you for your low IQ, but I can’t afford to lose any IQ."

With just a few words, Chuzheng elevated ’not coming out’ to an IQ issue.

Everyone: "..."

It felt like something was off about this argument, but it was hard to refute.

The entire server, even the neighboring ones, knew Chuzheng’s zero-level account situation.

Guoguo’s level was already over fifty; dealing with a zero-level account was indeed like slicing tofu.

Going out would be a dead end.

If you really got provoked to go out, it’d be a bit... stupid.

This doesn’t seem to align with previous patterns?

The onlookers were surprised, and some felt restless.

Ten thousand bucks...

Even if you were locked up for ten days and had a red name for a month, it was still worth it.

Most gamers tend to spend more than they earn; who could make a thousand bucks?

High-level players were reluctant to risk their accounts and had no intention of taking action, retreating to the edge to watch.

Guoguo, out of nowhere, seemed fearless in the face of so many people, instead adopting a devil-may-care attitude.

Chuzheng felt a bit scared watching.

"It’s just some stinking money, and you guys worship her like a goddess. Do you have no dignity?"

"So what if she’s rich?"

"You’re all garbage!"

"Parasites!"

"You all go to hell!"

At first, Guoguo only cursed Chuzheng, but then somehow began to curse the rich, ending up extending it to all players.

Game players, already having a layer of network protection, are easy to provoke.

At this moment, Guoguo’s behavior was undoubtedly lighting a fire.

At the critical moment, Guoguo’s friends came to her aid.

So in the end, it was hard to tell who was hitting whom.

It turned into a frenzy where nobody knew who they were fighting anymore.

-

Because so many people were involved, the rumor was that there were so many in the confinement room, it crashed offline.

Guoguo logged off half-way, leaving a group who helped her yet got taken in for detention.

Chuzheng found this matter quite amusing.

[World] A Cup of Milk Tea: How does it feel in the communal timeout room, pretty good?

[World] Cold Cold Cold Cold: It’s nice, just a bit cramped, people are stacking on each other; several got squeezed offline.

[World] Do You Want to Get Rich Overnight?: I just want to know, why?

[World] Galloping Pork Belly: They say it was because of Miss Billion.

[World] Ruoye: Someone explain.

[World] Galloping Pork Belly: Let me tell you slowly, it started like this...

The cause was actually quite simple.

It’s just that Guoguo was picking on Chuzheng.

You pick on me, I pick on you; it’s normal in-game dynamics.

But who knew that Guoguo picking on Chuzheng turned into a server-wide operation.

[World] Galloping Pork Belly: The main reason is Guoguo suddenly started mocking everyone. Even without Miss Billion’s bounty, someone would have likely taken action.

People play games to relax.

You curse me; of course, I’d retaliate.

A woman?

Sorry, in straight guys’ eyes, the game is the main wife.

Women will still get hit.

In games, if you don’t hit women, they’d call you a—scumbag.

If you don’t focus on gaming but flirt instead, you’re not faithful to the game, definitely a scumbag.

With Guoguo’s mass provocation, Chuzheng’s bounty was like lighting a fuse.

Killing and earning money, and not just a few hundred, but ten thousand, isn’t it worth the effort?

Then it turned into a frenzy, leading to the current mess.

This incident stirred up a commotion for a few days.

Chuzheng was busy dealing with the clingy and flirtatious Qin Luo, "You must come with me; you promised me, you have to accompany me."

She just checked the progress of this matter occasionally.

With so many players having red names, members from all the major guilds were involved.

To prevent conflicts and losses, major guilds intervened, and this month’s red-named players were prohibited from being killed.

For the players to see, several major guilds took turns sponsoring pinned announcements for days.

Ever since this incident, that Guoguo never logged back on.

Chuzheng later heard that it might have been because Guoguo’s real-life boyfriend cheated, finding a wealthy beauty, leaving her stunned.

Unending Petals apologized on Guoguo’s behalf.

Things were like this; everyone just had to let it go.

There are new stories happening in the game every day, so this matter quickly faded.

-

Chuzheng was busy handling Qin Luo while doing that annoying quest.

She exhaustingly completed one task, thinking there would be more, but then the scene suddenly jumped, reminding her the main quest was complete.

Chuzheng: "???"

Chuzheng watched as her level shot up.

It kept rising until it stopped at level forty.

"Young lady, congratulations." Zhang Tianzhu suddenly appeared, smiling, "Here’s your reward."

[Congratulations on obtaining Treasure Map Fragment ×1]

[Hidden Quest: Please gather Treasure Map Fragments]

Chuzheng: "..."

Calm down!

Calm down!

Calm down your butt!

[World] Daring Difficult People: Rich sister, how are your credit points?

[World] Jinse Fifty Strings: I really don’t understand the world of the rich, makes me want to hate wealth.

[World] Association of the Wealthy Avengers: Brother, do you want to join?!

Chuzheng’s credit points were not well off at all.

They had accumulated to negative 6900; if she hit a few more NPCs, she would soon break through the ten-thousand-point mark.

Chuzheng was already level forty.

She could view the leaderboard and glanced at it.

The credit leaderboard had two sections, positive and negative.

Given her credit points, there was no way she would make it onto the positive list.

Yet on the negative credit list, she was unexpectedly ranked... third?

Third!!

Wow, there were still people more notorious than her?
