Chapter 970: Chapter 904: Sword Thief!
_1 Chapter 970: Chapter 904: Sword Thief!
_1 The timing Wu Di chose was very ingenious, right at 12 noon, when the Cloud Dream staff were having lunch and taking a break.
Furthermore, with the smooth release of the second chapter of “Chang’an”, the project team members were celebrating.
Spotting this might take some time.
But it wasn’t intentional, just a coincidence.
Really.

While the staff of Cloud Dream were resting, the players didn’t have to.
The post Wu Di made on the forum was immediately seen by a large number of players who brushed the forum.
And their reactions were very authentic after seeing it——
“Protect it!”
“Don’t pin it!
Don’t like it!

Don’t reply!”
“Yes!
Do not give this post any heat, it’s over if Cloud Dream finds out!”
“Why the hell am I outside!”
“I’m not eating lunch, I’m going home!”
…
Although these people were all saying “don’t reply” with their mouths, the popularity of the post kept rising, and the number of replies grew rapidly.
The outrageous thing was, most of the replies ended with a sentence: “Stop replying!”
The only good news was; the administrator indeed did not pin this post.
Unclear if this only “cover” worked, countless players saw this post and excitedly ran to their worlds to get this sword.
After successfully obtaining the weapon, they quickly ran back to announce the good news.
Posts celebrating the good news once again pushed the post to the front page, seen by even more people…
These people, after seeing phrases like “may be fixed by Cloud Dream at any time” and “likely to be discontinued” in the replies, also rushed to get the sword as soon as possible.
Even casual players who almost never fight, wouldn’t miss this opportunity.
No player can resist the two words “discontinued”!
In this manner, the ownership of the “White Rainbow” among players began to grow exponentially!
And Lincoln was still dining with the staff of the “Chang’an” project team to celebrate the success.
Although the development of chapter two only took a week and was freely distributed at no cost, creating no direct revenue, a celebration was still necessary.
If not for the fact that they had just finished the New Year holidays, everyone was itching with passion, wanting to start on the production of the third chapter as soon as possible; Lincoln was even contemplating giving everyone another holiday.
Everyone raised their glasses in unison, drinking the water, red tea, coke, fruit juice…
and various kinds of drinks in their cups, then watched the boss in a chemical protective suit take out a long transparent tube from around his neck, stick it into the orange juice in front of him, and start forcefully sucking into his mouth.
The orange juice travelled up from the bottom, through the long transparent tube, and was continuously sucked into Lincoln’s mouth.
He drank a whole half glass in one go!
“Ohhhhh~~~”
After seeing Lincoln’s “spectacular” performance, the development team cheered in unison, raising their hands above their heads and clapping wildly.
As if Lincoln had done something incredible.
Even Mavis joined in the applause and merriment from the side.
She did notice that the Meditation Tower in Chang’an City suddenly hit a peak in visitor numbers.
But from the data, it seemed that a lot of players ran there to sightsee and broke off a piece from the top of the tower for a souvenir.
It was a bit strange, but the problem was not significant.
Watching her master perform while in a chemical protective suit was more entertaining!
…
…
By the afternoon, when Samuel from the operation department first discovered the problem and informed the “Chang’an” development team, the ownership of “White Rainbow” among the players had reached a staggering 10 million!
Every 9 players owned one on average!
Lincoln, Randall, and Fred looked dumbfounded at this data.

Keep in mind, it’s only been three hours since this post was published, and it’s mainly Daxia players participating, without yet spreading on a large scale overseas.
If this isn’t discovered until evening, everyone might have one by then!
It’s unbelievable for Randall to raise his hand and check the time, “Today…
isn’t it Friday?”
“Don’t all these people have to work?”
“That’s not important!” Fred interrupts him, “The problem is how to deal with this situation?”
After saying this, he looked towards Lincoln at his front.
In the virtual world, Lincoln had also returned to his regular clothes.
He had found the video of Wu Di retrieving the sword in the Public World, and had also opened the “BUG Submission Email” written by Wu Di, he was considering how to handle this matter.
Discarding all the White Rainbows on the Meditation Tower and in the players’ hands was a plan that Lincoln had ruled out first thing.
Whether it was making ten million people work in vain, or preventing the remaining eighty million people from obtaining it, neither is a wise action.
It doesn’t fit Lincoln’s character either.
“What do you guys think, if this sword is set as a reward for completing Assassin’s Way, what impact will it have on the later storyline?”
In the second chapter, with the many Jianghu heroes entering Chang’an, the super complex series of introductory missions that Wu Di played were picked up again, and after being upgraded and optimized, they became a whole new pattern of gameplay-
Players can make choices among Assassin’s Way, Way of Chivalry, Way of the Army, Shooting Expertise and Unusual Way; after a series of complex quest lines, they can get multi-directional enhancements.
Each of these paths requires a token to activate.
After successful completion, they will also receive an exclusive weapon.
Lincoln’s idea was to make this White Rainbow a reward for completing Assassin’s Way.
“You mean, people who have already got the weapon will not get a reward after completing the series of missions?” Randall was somewhat surprised.
“No, no, no.” Lincoln immediately shook his head, “I mean: Players who have already gotten White Rainbow, after completion, they will only get Fish Intestine.
Players who have not obtained it will get both at the same time- White Rainbow and Fish Intestine.”
“Seems…unproblematic?” After thinking for a while, Fred felt that this wouldn’t have any impact on other aspects of the game.
And there was dual wielding weapon training in the Assassin’s Way series of missions, so giving two weapons wouldn’t be inconsistent.
“So, should we do it this way?”
“Of course not!
This is not enough!” Lincoln shook his head again, “This time I let them get it because they were quick, but it can’t be this simple!”
“Ah?” Upon hearing Lincoln’s words, Randall and Fred became uneasy, and were worried that Lincoln would do something reckless.
“What are you planning to do?” Randall hurriedly asked.
But Lincoln didn’t explain, he just left a sentence “Just wait and see!”
Then he pulled Mavis and left, starting his emergency overtime.

Half an hour later, “Chang’an” urgently updated.
By then, the quantity of White Rainbows had exceeded 15 million, and overseas players had also begun large-scale activities.
This time, Ivan was again urged by his viewers to come, the reason being that White Rainbow was much better quality than the hunting knife he’d always used.
Although Ivan felt that the hunting knife was already good enough for hunting, and the role he played in “Chang’an” was “Heavy Tank”, his usual weapon was large weapons like two-handed axes and hammers, so short swords weren’t very useful.
But in the end he couldn’t resist his viewers’ urging, and he finally came.
But just as he climbed to the top of the tower and took the sword, and before he could be happy about it, an achievement trophy suddenly appeared before him.
“Getting an achievement for exploiting a loophole?
Is Cloud Dream so generous?” Ivan was a bit surprised.
But as he picked up the trophy and glanced at the name of the achievement, he was immediately shocked–
[Sword Thief]
“This name…
doesn’t it sound like something good?”
Just as his words ended, the system information of the sword also popped up–
White Rainbow: Assassin’s Way mentor Han Jing’s beloved sword, carried for many years.
(Note: Stealing this sword before obtaining mentor’s approval will result in being hunted down by assassins once exposed!)
“???”
Ivan looked at the camera, full of question marks–
“Can anyone explain how I became a sword thief?”
