Chapter 405: Chapter 0405 Popularity (7400 Compensated, Begging For Monthly Tickets)
District 03.
Inside a luxurious villa.
A young man was browsing the latest posts on the Main God game forum.
His beautifully furnished bedroom was filled with cute girl figurines and dolls, and posters of the hottest young female singer from Guni Star, known as the ‘Goddess of Lolicon’, Nisi, were plastered on the walls.
“What’s this?”
Suddenly, he saw a post.
” Backed by my 31 years of being single… The Crystal Core Refining Skill! A terrifying technique that can bring Transcendent Strength into reality!”
“Interesting…”
He clicked open to read it. It was posted by an anonymous player promoting a technique named ‘Crystal Core Refining Skill’. It claimed that the crystal core could be utilized more than 90%, making visits to the Job Introduction Office unnecessary, and it could even bring Transcendent Strength into reality!
“Is this a joke? It’s stated as if it’s real.”
When the young man read to the end, he saw that the anonymous player wrote: “If I’m lying, let me remain single for another 170 years!… Seriously swearing like this, aren’t you scared of it becoming true?”
He displayed a thoughtful look: “Sadly… I still don’t believe it. Huh?”
The next second, he was startled to find that the post had already disappeared.
“Blocked? That was quick, wasn’t it? Now it’s getting interesting… ”
Even though such spam posts would be deleted quickly, the speed of this action and the way it was suppressed aroused his interest, “Crystal Core Refining Skill, huh? I’ve memorized it… Let’s just give it a try.”
…
“Damn it, what’s going on?”
In an underground lab, a woman in black was roaring: “And he even spread it through posts… Is he out of his mind?”
When faced with such a secret, shouldn’t any player cling to it tightly, wary even of their closest acquaintances?
Why would such an idiot appear?
“Boss!”
At this time, several Guni People scientists entered.
“What are the results?” The woman in black took a deep breath, regaining her calm.
“Our players have tried it in the Inner World… it’s highly effective. The utilization rate of the crystal core is around 95%, optimizing over our previous design by more than 50%. It’s unbelievable!”
A scientist pushed his glasses up.
“95%? Are you joking? Even the best secret technique circulating among top players has only reached 50%… That’s the limit of Guni People technology.”
The woman in black murmured.
If Su Lu were here, he would definitely burst out laughing.
The Main God game may seem like a high-tech product, but in essence, it’s ‘Mysterious’, an indescribable ‘Spirituality’. Claiming it can be explained using Guni Star’s science is a joke.
With wrong views, one only strays further into a dead end.
“But… why? With such an advanced technique, he could obtain anything as long as he cooperated with one power, so why did he go public with it?”
The woman in black had an expression of confusion.
“As per the estimates of the Brain Think Tank Department, the speaker’s character model has been established — a young, loser, long-time loner, with a slight world-saving fantasy… Perhaps, he just unintentionally learnt of this technique and released it due to his ‘savior’ mentality.”
A responsible person bowed and said, “Don’t worry, our people have joined forces with other powers to block this post and also spread a large number of rumors.”
“Well, the actual origin of the Refining Skill could only be from the deity that created the Main God game, or else it must be aliens, right?”
After hearing this point, the woman in black immediately said: “Regardless…with the emergence of new technology, the price of the crystal cores in the Main God game will once again skyrocket. Mobilize our people and buy, buy, at any cost!”
Just like her, there were many other families and powers making the same choice.
Soon, within the Inner World, lower level players rejoiced to find that offline crystal core sales welcomed a new round of prosperity. The prices were constantly rising, doubling in no time.
…
District 03, inside a villa.
“Hyah!”
The young man’s forehead was dripping with sweat as he stared at his hands.
Several minutes later, a small flame appeared between his hands. It flickered and was on the brink of extinguishing.
“Huff… huff…”
After a few seconds, the flame immediately extinguished. He then collapsed on the ground, laughing until tears flowed out: “It’s real, it’s real.”
The young man got up and quickly browsed the forum with a smirk: “Most of the posts discussing the Crystal Core Refining Skill have been deleted and there are loads of unrelated posts. Hahaha… such a familiar pattern of mass deletion, but you can’t fool me. All the players are discussing the reason behind the skyrocketing prices of the crystal cores. This is it!”
“I want to thank you, the guy who has been single for thirty-one years, in the name of Feng Yaoqi.”
Feng Yaoqi was obviously his online pseudonym. In reality, he was a rich second-generation who lived a carefree life. After the Main God game was released, he plunged headfirst into it without hesitation.
Until now he’s barely managed to rank among the top hundred thousand ‘high players’.
“Only now do I realize what I’ve been missing…”
Feng Yaoqi looked at his palm and slowly clenched it. “Those people on the leaderboards, eight out of ten probably know this secret, right? I’m far behind them. The competition is too intense… In order to catch up, I have no choice but to pull them down first, hehe… The original releaser was too stupid. I’ll just give you a hand.”
He quickly dialed a satellite phone number: “I’m Mr. ‘V’. I need a group of top hackers. The remuneration will be paid in encrypted cryptocurrency…”

A few days later.
Luo Fei opened the forum and excitedly exclaimed, “Grandpa, I’m famous! I’m famous!”
“Oh.”
With an indifferent look, Su Lu glanced at the forum through his vision and saw that the discussions about the ‘Crystal Core Refining Skill’ were everywhere on various forums. There was even ‘proof’ — a video of a player creating a fireball with his hand in reality.
This wasn’t Feng Yaoqi, it was just a randomly hired player used as a test subject.
Furthermore, hackers were used to attack the major forum websites. The posts about the Crystal Core Refining Skill were directly pinned at the top, making it impossible to ignore!
Once it crossed a certain popularity threshold, even the numerous powers and forces, who were gnashing their teeth wanting to suppress it, couldn’t remove it anymore.
Soon, discussions related to the ‘Crystal Core Refining Skill’ topped the hot search list. It was a global headline, with a huge number of players practicing it and leaving videos.
“It’s real!”
“This is a game of gods. The era of players transcending reality is coming!”
“Let’s thank the ‘Pioneer’, and also clearly see the disgusting faces of the forces suppressing discussions this time.”
“We condemn the Gods of War, Star Dust, Butterfly…and other guilds. You monopolize technology, control public opinion – are you brewing a conspiracy?”
“Protest! Collective protest!”
“We call upon all players, firmly refusing to sell crystal cores to the blacklisted powers!”
…
The online public opinion was overwhelming, discussions about the Crystal Core Refining Skill were everywhere.
“Hehe… they are calling me the ‘Pioneer’, the ‘Transcendent Teacher’!”
Luo Fei touched his head, quite excited: “I’m now completely famous.”
Thump!
The next moment, he got smacked on the head again: “So you will soon be targeted. If you haven’t gained enough strength before those who suffered a loss due to you discover your whereabouts, you can wait to die!”
As Su Lu’s words reached him, Luo Fei’s body turned ice-cold.
