Chapter 62 System Maintenance
“Young Master, it’s time for dinner.” The voice of Ruby Frank drifted over to Finn Lewis. It was only then that he realized she was still in his room. She had come to call him for dinner, but he had been embroiled in a brawl. She had been calling him multiple times already.
“Didn’t I tell you to eat first?” Lewis turned around to look at her and asked.
“Alright, alright, I’m going to eat now. Then can you handle these in-game transactions for me?” Lewis pointed at the items on his screen.
“Sure,” Ruby nodded in agreement.
Finn stood up to head downstairs for his meal. Once Finn left, Ruby couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly. Ruby had actually been in the room for a while, and while she didn’t know the details of Finn’s previous distractions, she knew an extravagant waste of money when she saw it on Finn.
What was more, Ruby had played this game before and her account was still active. Therefore, Ruby knew about the Windward World mount gift packs in the game. She never imagined someone could purchase 1600 of them in one go. If this wasn’t a waste of money, then what was? Each gift pack costs 2888 Flame Nation coins, so 1600 of them would cost over 4.6 million.
Just to trade some words, then wasted 4.6 million, at least he should have improved his equipment, all these garbage equipment he is wearing.
Ruby shook her head speechlessly, yet dutifully started to accept the players’ trade invites. She continued to hand out gift packs in the game, while people on the forum started heated discussions about how Finn could discover the background info about Wild Slash Widows’ Village. Some were arguing that Finn hacked into something, but this was quickly debunked. How could a hacker obtain such information in just three minutes?
Moreover, to obtain the other party’s information, one must first invade the game’s server, trace the IP address, and only then could access their data. This could not be done within three minutes.
But what was even more important was that Finn knew about Wild Slash Widows’ Village skipping tuition and borrowing money from classmates to pay it off. How could a hacker possibly know this?
Most people guessed that there were also classmates of Wild Slash Widows’ Village playing the game who then sold their information to Literati Saucy Poet – only then would the information be so accurate. But regardless of what was discussed on the forums, Literati Saucy Poet handing out Windward World mount gift packs in Novice Village caused quite a stir.
This can no longer be described as affluent behavior, this must be the work of a Deity Tycoon, the regular affluent just isn’t enough to illustrate such prodigal behavior.
“Sawyer, I’m a reporter from the official forum, can I interview you?” Someone messaged in the World Channel.
Ruby caught sight of the message, and initially wouldn’t bother replying, but then she thought about her young master’s personality. He would likely love to be in the spotlight. After contemplating this, Ruby responded directly in the World Channel, surprising everyone with her reply: “Apologies, I’m not Sawyer. The young master is currently at dinner, I’m his female assistant.”
Once she finished messaging, she no longer paid attention to the ongoing chat, but instead kept accepting players’ trades.
Everyone in the server, those who were there to watch the excitement, including the so-called reporter, were all taken aback. They thought, is this due to an incorrect opening rhythm I’ve been using? Even the young master title popped up – but after considering Sawyer’s recent extravagance, the title young master seemed to fit the bill perfectly.
So this is definitely the rhythm of a rich young master.
The World Channel exploded with activity again, but Ruby had started to ignore these messages. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to Ruby and Finn, the player community was fervidly discussing not only within the games but also on the official forum from the GMs(Games Master).
Players with money were not unheard of in the game World, especially during the annual event, which ranked all servers’ equipment levels. This event attracted countless wealthy players to invest money in the game. However, no one had seen a player as extravagant as Finn Lewis before.
What mattered the most was the shocking revelations that Finn had thrown out later! Ordinary players might not understand how Finn managed to know so many details, but how could these GMs and server maintenance staff not know?
Upon receiving this information from the GM and server staff, the managerial superiors immediately made a decision.
As Ruby was handing out a few hundred Windward World gift packs in the game, a sudden system alert in bright red flashed across the players’ screens.
System: Dear players, there will be an emergency maintenance in 10 minutes. The maintenance time is currently uncertain. Compensation for the unexpected maintenance will be issued after 12:00 noon tomorrow at the compensation issue officer’s location.
The system message was sent out every 20 seconds and caused chaos among the players
Suddenly someone posted a message in the World Channel: Why do I feel like this system maintenance was all thanks to Brother Sawyer?
No matter the cause of official maintenance, none of the players could do anything about it. Many began to log out, and while the game was offline, every voice chat channel and official forum was swarmed by players. Those who were not aware of the situation initially, found out instantly once they logged into the official forum. As a result, not only did many more know about Finn, but also Wild Slash Widows’ Village was being cursed and denounced by countless players.
“Hello! Is Mia Westfield around?” Finn’s multi-language channel was buzzing with conversation, with at least a few thousand guests.
At the sound of Ruby’s voice in the guild’s voice channel, everyone in the multi-language channel went silent.
“Holy smokes, that’s the young master’s voice channel. Who are you?” Multiple Language was stunned and asked instantly.
“I am the young master’s assistant. The gift packs were sent by me on the young master’s orders. The young master instructed to me leave 500 Windward World gift packs for Mia Westfield, and one each for our guild members. Since the system maintenance is about to start, the items are still with the young master.” Ruby frankly stated as she was screened by the multi-language channel, no one would find out who she was, so there was no pressure in calling him young master.
“Holy ….” Everyone in the multi-language channel was dumbfounded for a moment and didn’t know what to say. They were all gaming enthusiasts but didn’t know how to react when a young master was suddenly thrown into the mix.
“Ah, I see. I’ll pick it up tomorrow.” Mia Westfield finally came back to her senses and responded.
“Alright, I’ll be logging off then. Bye.” After she finished speaking, Ruby promptly logged off..
