Chapter 1141: CLEARING UP THE ISSUE

MOONLIGHT Media moved quickly. Within hours of the issue starting, they had already released an official statement.

[Moonlight Media v:

At Moonlight Media, we uphold the highest standards of integrity and fairness in all our games and competitions. Recently, concerns have been raised regarding team Yunyue acquiring two pet dragons.

We want to assure our community that Yunyue earned the two dragons entirely through their skill and dedication. The process was transparent and in accordance with the game's rules and regulations.

To provide clarity, we have attached a video showcasing the sequence of events and achievements that led to Yunyue obtaining the dragons. We hope this will dispel any doubts and reaffirm our commitment to fair play.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

Sincerely,

The Moonlight Media Team]

Attached to the statement was a 30-minute video detailing exactly how team Yunyue acquired the dragons.

From Noctis finding the cave in the moon elves' origin village, then him seeing the black dragon inside the cave, the video showed every step. It quickly transitioned from getting the fox's egg to how he went back to the cave to awaken the dragon, which then turned into a small dragon with no memories.

Fast forward to how they triggered the hidden quest 'Awakening Dragon,' where they learned about the past of the black dragon they named 'Dusk.' From his rise to power and claiming the throne of the Western dragon clan, to him being betrayed and eventually entrapped in the cave where Noctis first found him.

It also showed Dusk's connection to Kagetsuki, Eclipse's mother, which was the source of all the conflict. The leader of the dark mages killed Kagetsuki, enraging Dusk. After claiming the throne, he led the dragons to war against the dark mages, but was betrayed by the high council.

Then they met Beelzebub - an archdemon who turned out to be Dusk's father. In order to finish the quest, they had to go to Achaeus, the land of the dark mages, and get his body. There, YUN and Noctis killed the Dark Saint - the leader of the dark mages.

All of this led to Dusk regaining his memories and agreeing to become YUN's pet. The red dragon that YUN and Noctis kidnapped during the quest had his memories wiped out, and White Marsh managed to sign a contract with him, making the dragon his pet.

The video felt like watching a short film. It captured the key moments of the quest with clear visuals and smooth transitions. The intense battles, character interactions, and plot developments were easy to follow and engaging. The editing highlighted the important events without any unnecessary embellishments, making it a straightforward yet compelling watch.

Within minutes, the video received a surge of views. After 30 minutes, the comment section began to fill up rapidly.

- Wow. What did I just watch??? (⊙_⊙)

- Is this a movie starring Noctis and YUN, featuring Dusk and Eclipse?

└ Right? It's literally like a short film. I'm not sure if Moonlight Media's PR team just has godly editing skills or if the game's graphics are just that good.

└└ It's the story quest. No matter how good they edited it or how beautiful the game graphics were, if the story is not good, I assure you, it wouldn't have the same effect.

- This is such an awesome quest. How come I've never triggered one?

└ It's a matter of luck. Just look at Noctis. He discovered the cave where the dragon was only because he was looking for the gatekeeper's son. Which he only did because he talked to the gatekeeper and agreed to look for his missing son. Most players don't bother talking to the NPCs in their origin village. They prefer to leave quickly and head to the starting city.

└└ Should I go to my origin village and search for a hidden quest?

└└└ I'm planning to do that as well!

- Poor Dusk. After all that suffering, he was betrayed in the end.

└ I think Eclipse is more pitiable. My poor babies. (T_T)

└└ There's no need for debate. Both of them suffered.

- Isn't there a site-wide announcement last October about how YUN and Noctis defeated the Dark Saint? So, it's actually related to how they got the two dragons?

└ Oh I remember that! It was quite a commotion since they defeated the leader of the dark mages.

└ Their fight against the Dark Saint was just amazing. No wonder it warranted a site-wide announcement.

- So, Noctis was the one who triggered this whole chain of quests that eventually led team Yunyue to gain two dragons. I thought YUN is President Shen's nephew? Or are people going to say now that Noctis is another nephew? Maybe we would hear later that YUN anc Noctis are actually brothers.

└ LOL I won't be surprised if people really say that.

└ If Noctis is the other person in that photo that circulated during the Spring Festival, I know someone who looks exactly like him. And no, he's definitely not related to the president of Moonlight Media. I'll just say he belongs to a wealthy family here in S City.

- What if Moonlight Media fabricated everything in the video to cover up the fact that they unfairly gave two dragons to Yunyue?

└ Upstairs, are you high or just stupid? It's only been an hour since this 'controversy' started trending. Do you really think Moonlight Media could produce this level of quality in just a few hours? It's obvious they already had the footage, which is why they could easily condense everything into a 30-minute video.

└└ Don't mind this person; they're obviously a hater. No matter how much you try to reason with them, they won't see the truth, even if it's right in front of them.

- The funny thing about all of this is that Moonlight Media's statement never addressed the uncle-nephew issue. Yet, they still managed to show everyone that Yunyue got their dragons fair and square.

└ It's like they're saying we have no obligation to clear up assumptions you're having. We're just going to address your silly accusations.

That last comment actually made Luo Yan chuckle in amusement.
