MARVEL: GAME MAKER SYSTEM

Chapter 156: 156 - Apologies

Looking at the Oasis Forum, Alex realized that millions of people were looking at what happened and were curious as they wondered what had happened.

Apparently the vast majority of people just explained what happened in an honest way, but there were still people who tried to invent rumors to harm Notch and Oasis' image to the other Players.

Unfortunately for these people, using Oasis' social network to try to denigrate Oasis was not a very smart idea, so as soon as posts made with invented rumors or that were intentionally wanting to denigrate Oasis, their posts were blocked and they received a warning of 3-day suspension from the Forum.

Some companies even tried to use other people's accounts to make the posts after some modifications, but regardless of the modifications, these texts were all blocked, until only the truth was posted.

Unlike other social networks where only some keywords were blocked, in Oasis Forum, Oasis's artificial intelligence read all posts before they were published, so it was impossible for unwanted things to be posted on the Forum, making it a place free from Fake News.

When the Players realized this, a few weeks ago, most people started using the Oasis Forum to read the news and find out about the latest things happening around the world, as there they would have no risk of falling for fake news. .

Seeing the potential audience, many news companies around the world also used Oasis Forum as a platform to post their news, but more than 80% of companies were blocked for a few days after posting the Fake News that they normally posted.

[ESW player was attacked by a mutant terrorist group with the intention of serving as a hostage to deal with Notch. See more...]

[Notch personally went to save Player from Elder Scrolls: Warcraft!]

[Is it dangerous to be an ESW Player?]

These were some of the news that emerged in the few minutes of Notch's battle with Magneto, but as there was no Fake News, even news that spoke negatively about ESW was not blocked by Oasis's AI, as everything was true.

But soon a new post appeared at the top of the Oasis Forum and Twitch.

[Notch Press Conference.]

Seeing this, several Players quickly clicked curiously.

[In 28 minutes and 12 seconds a press conference will be held at Hub 00 with unlimited space.]

Looking at the time slowing down, the Players soon understood that it was a countdown and wanted to go participate, but they soon became confused when they looked at the Hub's number.

"Is there a Hub 00?" A Player asked in confusion as he read the Hub number again.

"There is! A Hub with the number 00 has just appeared at the top of the Hubs list!" Another Player on the side said in surprise, as he knew that a few minutes ago there was no Hub 00, only Hubs 01 to 72.

Seeing that a new Hub had appeared, hundreds of millions of Players around the world clicked to see what would happen.

Even people who didn't know what was happening clicked, curious about the new Hub that appeared out of nowhere.

Entering the new Hub, the Players realized that instead of a Hub the size of a city, as they were used to, this Hub 00 was the size of a conference center with the capacity for a maximum of 100 people.

Confused as to how so many people could fit here, the Players opened the Menu and finally saw something familiar.

[Hub 00-4.423]

"This Hub is divided into instances, just like the Fortnite final!" The Players who participated in the Fortnite championship final soon understood what was happening, as they explained it to the Players who didn't understand around them.

When the timer finally reached zero, two people appeared on the convention center stage.

The first person to enter was a man everyone was familiar with, with long black hair, red eyes, and a black suit perfectly fitted to his body.

Above his head was a very well-known name.

[Notch]

Next to Notch was a woman few people knew, only to see the resemblance she bore to the woman being held hostage with the terrorist.

[Mariiiia]

Seeing her name, the Players were soon excited to learn that she was indeed alive!

Seeing the two entering, applause erupted throughout the millions of instances of the convention center Hub.

With a polite smile on his face, Notch waved his hand at the people, who were extremely excited thinking that Notch had specifically looked at them.

"Good evening everyone, I believe tonight is much busier than you expected, right?" Notch said as he turned to Maria. "Especially for you."

Maria just looked at Notch while shaking her head in denial, still very lost on what to do next to this legend who was next to her.

Unlike other Players who only saw Notch as a legendary figure in the virtual world, she had seen Notch in person in the real world, and not only was he as handsome as in the game, but he also saved her from the terrorist like a handsome prince charming.

At that moment, the feelings in Maria's chest were extremely confused and she didn't even know how to act normally.

But when the Players saw how she was acting, they all chalked it up to PTSD and became even more worried.

Seeing the Players' concern, Notch shook his head as he said in a sad voice. "I believe you are very worried about the danger of using the ESW's powers in the real world and what happened to Maria happening to you, right?"

Despite not being in any specific Hub at the same time, Notch had view of all Hubs and could switch to whichever Hub he wanted immediately.

But instead of controlling this manually, Alex let Oasis AI control which Hub he would see at that moment based on the relevance of what was happening there.

"About what happened to Maria, I can only say that I'm sorry. I never imagined that some terrorists would use the ESW Players to try to reach me, or even get to me. Despite having suffered countless difficulties until the development of Oasis that we have now, I didn't imagine that one of the difficulties would be something like what happened today. Fortunately, no catastrophe happened and Maria's safety was preserved." Notch said.

Seeing Notch's explanation, the Players actually felt that it was understandable, as how could anyone imagine that terrorists would kidnap Players and use it as blackmail for him to appear?!

"As compensation for something like this happening to you..." Notch said as he turned and looked at Maria. "We at Oasis will give you VIP access to all Mojang games, plus a lifetime subscription to ESW, along with $100,000 in credits for you to use on whatever you want in Oasis, be it virtual purchases, or even store purchases real people who have branches at Oasis."

Hearing this, Maria was shocked.

This was more than her annual salary!

"Thank you so much Notch!" She said emotionally as she went to bow to him, but he soon came to her side and held her shoulder, stopping her from bowing.

"No need to thank me, this is just an apology from the entire company to you, and a message that we will pass on to everyone around the world." Notch said as he turned from her to the audience. "Do not try to do anything bad to our Players against their will just because they are Players of my game, as the fate you will face will not be good at all."

When Notch said this, his expression turned cold, earning the applause of the audience in all the convention centers.

To Magneto it may not seem like anything bad happened, but the Sharingan controlling Magneto's free will in his mind was already a big sign that the end of these people really wouldn't be good.
