The Rise of Otaku Chapter 300

Chapter 300: Chapter 300: Bandits and Heifengzhai

Naturally, Heifengzhai was not comparable to Beidou, which had a long history in Starlight city. However, as the most dazzling new star in the new generation of the fallen city, and with the remarkable record of being able to survive from the Divine Sword Pavilion's hunt, it was still very famous in the fallen city. So, when they announced that they wanted to join Luhua city, it was like pouring a bucket of cold water into a pan of boiling oil.

It instantly exploded.

If Heifengzhai really joined Luhua city, then Luhua City would have two different management companies, the Starlight idol management company, and the Fallen idol management companies, which would also make it become the first chaotic force in the ACG world. Although it was still a very small force, it was still a very unprecedented thing.

In the past, there were also some cities that had both the starlight idols and the fallen idols. However, everyone was doing it very secretly. For example, while in public they only had starlight idols, but in secret, they also make money through fallen idols. However, there were almost no cities that had both a starlight idol management company and the fallen idol management company.

Therefore, Heifengzhai's announcement has gained a lot of attention.

Everyone was wondering when Heifengzhai would contact Luhua City and then formally join Luhua City. However, for more than ten days, reporters stationed in Luhua City and Fallen City did not see any signs of Heifengzhai, and Luhua City also did not give any news about the contact.

In this way, it made people think if they were tricked by Heifengzhai. Maybe the company wanted to freeload some popularity using this unprecedented event.

It was not impossible, because after Heifengzhai gave the announcement, its popularity skyrocketed. According to a survey company's data, the popularity of Heifengzhai has increased from the previous 11% to 46%, which was rising like a rocket.

However, the cost of doing something like this was not small, because the attitude of Starlight City and Fallen City towards Luhua City was surprisingly consistent, that was to completely isolate them. Whoever dared to join Luhua City, then they would suppress them at all costs, and this was exactly what happened to Beidou.

As soon as Heifengzhai's announcement came out, the Fallen City immediately responded. During this time, the various assets of Heifengzhai were also targeted by the Fallen city. It resulted in unprecedented losses of Heifengzhai. However, there was one thing that was quite strange. It was that even if it was so heavily suppressed by the Fallen City, not a single fallen idol of the Heifengzhai management company left the company, which was completely opposite to Beidou.

Xia Huan and Zhou Yu studied this announcement for a while and came to the conclusion that Heifengzhai probably really only wanted to freeload some popularity. Perhaps in the estimation of Heifengzhai, the loss during this period could be regarded as advertising costs. After all, the popularity has increased by four times, and this was not something that could be done using regular advertisement methods.

After several days, there were still no signs of Heifengzhai, so Zhou Yu also lost interest. There would definitely be a Fallen management company in the future, even if Heifengzhai would not come, he would still be able to create one in the future, so he wasn't worried.

Xia Huan also thought that it was a good idea, and carefully analyzed the situation, “what Heifengzhai did actually helped us a lot. Previously, all the people kept their eyes on Luhua City and Beidou. It made it very difficult for us to secretly create a wandering idol community. But with Heifengzhai's announcement, it attracts at least half of everyone's attention, and in terms of the rest, most of them only concern about it a city could really have two management companies that were from two different factions. No one cares about the movement of wandering idols at the moment.”

Xia Huan believed that it was better not to expose the wandering idol community at the moment. After all, there were definitely more treasures in Starlight City and Fallen City, and they may also have the celestial vision or the treasures that had similar functions. If they found out what they were doing, they were definitely able to set up the wandering idol guild first. There was no way Luhua City would be able to compete with them, after all, Luhua City didn't have as many resources as them.

Once the community was built and there were enough people in the community, naturally, they wouldn't be afraid.

Now what Luhua City had to do was to shoot animated movies without interruption, so that more wandering idols could be recruited. This was also a reasonable excuse for having a large number of wandering idols in Luhua City. So in these days, Xia Huan searched all the copyrighted scripts that Beidou had, and was ready to use them.

Most of these works were below C-rated. However, although Zhou Yu was not interested in those works, he didn't plan to sell them. It was just an excuse to recruit wandering idols after all.

Luhua City has now become very popular amongst wandering idols. All kinds of wandering idols started to gather here, which made it look like it was an idol city. It was at this time, a watchman suddenly saw a cloud of smoke rising from afar. Then he immediately blew the horn to alarm the people in the city.

There was no such thing as the siege in the ACG world. But when a large group of people riding a variety of combat beasts appeared outside Luhua City with a bunch of strange tent-like things hanging behind them, it was still quite scary.

Zhou Yu, who was the city's lord, naturally wanted to find out if the army outside the city was the army that was made of extreme fans. After all, there were many wandering idols in the city. He needed to make them feel safe. In the past, he might still be afraid, but now whether it was a duel or a group fight, Luhua City had enough combat power.

Quickly arriving at the gate, he saw a group of people dressed like a group of horse-mounted bandits, wrapping themselves in things like leopard skin and tiger skin. They were shouting loudly while riding the beasts back and forth to show their excellent riding skills. Judging from the number of people, there were only about a hundred or so people, so they were definitely not able to defeat Lilith's golden army.

The person that led the group was a young man with a clear eye, who didn't look like a bandit at all. He shouted loudly after he made a fist and palm salute, “Heifengzhai leader Shang Yue would like to see Zhou Yu, the lord of Luhua City, I came to join you!”

Holy shit, this bandits-like group was actually Heifengzhai Management Company? He always felt that an Idol management company should be a very modern organization. But why did this group look so wild?

Xia Huan, who followed him, took a closer look and nodded, “Yes, he is Shang Yue. Behind him is a person called Lin Wumo, the two are good friends. They are always staying together.”

Zhou Yu didn't expect Heifengzhai would be so frank and straightforward. Without any negotiation, they just brought everything they had to Luhua city straightaway.

The reporters, who had been waiting in Luhua City for a while, all ran out at this moment and started to take various photos of Heifengzhai and his group, and quickly sent the information back through their own methods.

Those Heifengzhai bandits really came to join Luhua City!

The hateful Luhua City actually concealed the news so thoroughly.

Speaking of this, Zhou Yu was also very speechless. Concealed my ass. I am also surprised, okay? But now there was a question in front of him that needed him to make a decision quickly. That was, to take them or not?

There were more than one hundred people there, many of whom were probably very talented. After taking them, at least, his strength would definitely increase. However, it was not wise to take them in immediately without knowing their true intentions.

Alas, it was such a dilemma.
