World's Strongest Troll

Chapter 298 It's a game anyway (1)

The cataclysm of the Shoen Empire in Arcadia.

It was just an illusion that happened in a game, but since it was Arcadia enjoyed by billions of people around the world, the aftermath was so huge that it could not be easily overlooked.

-Are nuclear weapons appearing in fantasy in the virtual reality arcadia game?

- An empire on the Japanese continent that has been destroyed by nuclear weapons. A reenactment of a historical tragedy?

-Three mushroom clouds rising from the imperial castle of the Shouen Empire. A blitz analysis of the inside story!

A mushroom cloud that can only be seen at the scene of a huge explosion that releases tremendous energy at once.

When the cloud, known as a representative symbol of nuclear explosion, rose from the fantasy world of Arcadia and, of course, from the Shouen Empire on the Japanese continent, the Japanese media began to rush into this issue with foam at the mouth.

[This is Arcadia's malicious retaliation against Japan! A nuclear explosion in a game with a medieval fantasy world view! Does this make sense now? It must have been carefully intervened by the highest-ranking executives who have a grudge against Japan!] [

As an expert who has been planning, developing, and operating games for decades, what is currently happening in Arcadia is far beyond common sense. . Regarding the settings and balance in the game, it is entirely up to the operating company, and I haven't checked the internal data in detail, but this is no matter how you look at it...] [Virtual

reality comparing the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki We condemn the vicious Arcadia Co., Ltd., which caused deep wounds and sorrow to all Japanese people even in the midst of this! If we do not search out and severely punish all those involved in this situation, we will boycott Arcadia from now on...]

The past era of Japanese imperialism.

As the first country to be subjected to a nuclear attack during World War II, there were painful memories of falling into a defeated country with numerous casualties one after another, so there were more people than expected who turned a blind eye to this incident.

-These fucking joXjing bastards!!!!!!

- No matter how much I think about it, my anger doesn't subside! Any idea what to do?

-This is a national problem! The Japanese government should officially respond to this issue!

-Cho X-Jing, president of Arcadia Co., Ltd., resign immediately!

Those who are furious and are plastering the bulletin board with all sorts of campaigns through Arfandia, including the resignation movement of President Lee Mi-yeon, boycott movement, national provocation, and diplomacy.

However, unlike the Japanese users, the Korean users were truly in a festive mood.

-Kiya!!! Jumo! Bring Kimchi! Shata down today! Are you not going home?

-The first similar country to be hit with both nukes, both real and virtual.

-???? It's the same as attacking sherrys first and then pretending to be victims.

-????: History repeats itself.

- Hahahahahaha How does Joseon's counterattack taste?

-Black color! Black color! Black color! Black color!

-Why is it so fun to see Japanese guys clenching their teeth? Haha

Dex blew away the imperial castle of the Shoen Empire, Japan's core and most powerful axis, in an instant. The target was also Japan, where public sentiment was at its worst, and due to the new job canon shooter released by him, there was no public opinion criticizing him by expressing doubts or complaints about the balance problem related to nuclear weapons.

-Cannon Shooter How do I change jobs?

-For that, go to the Canon Philia school in the Gael Federation and buy the equipment.

-Kiaaaaang!!! gun! gun! revolver!!!

- From now on, I'm going to sweep everything away.

Dex, an enemy that would not be cool to Japanese users even if he chewed it, became a hero receiving tremendous praise from Korean users.

President Lee Mi-yeon, who was intensively managing and watching him, was talking to Executive Director Kwon Myung-han about measures to be taken with a tired expression.

“In the future, the Gael Federation will continue to mass-produce a new equipment called ‘Mana Cannon' and the resulting job called Cannon Shooter. Therefore, users of various levels will continue to flow into the neighborhood, so please consider adjusting the level of the quest or nearby monsters accordingly.”

“All right.”

“And... Please refrain from mentioning the new concept of siege equipment called the magic turret, even among internal staff if possible. In the future, when responding to media outlets, conduct thorough internal crackdowns so that the word “nuclear” does not come out.”

There are still calls pouring in asking if there is a hack in the real game. So, at the words of CEO Lee Mi-yeon, who frowned with annoyed face, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han nodded and replied.

“As instructed earlier, the phenomenon that occurred in the Imperial Castle of the Shoen Empire is only the effect of the item according to the magic setting in the game, and it is informed that it has no effect or relationship to nuclear weapons in reality.”

Arcadia in the medieval fantasy world. It maintained that worldview and declared its will to do so in the future, and even announced an official statement saying that the mushroom cloud from the Shoen Empire had nothing to do with nuclear weapons, but the word nuclear continued to pour in articles and newspapers on the Internet.

“Rather than that... may I ask what you plan to do with Japan in the future?”

“hmm? What do you mean by that?”

“As you know, boss... The attack that the Shouen Empire launched this time wasn't just a simple war, was it?”

Continental unification main scenario Chaos that only President Lee Mi-yeon knew about.

Among the employees of Arcadia Co., Ltd., only she had access to this information, so no one except for Kazuki and Dex knew the details.

Even Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon, now standing in front of her.

“As the Crisis Management and Response Team conducted an exhaustive investigation of the contents of the quests posted by Japanese users on Arpendia, it was found that the Shouen Empire’s attack this time was a combined attack with the Feros Empire, which was known to have an enemy relationship.”

An attack in which hundreds of thousands of users and large Japanese guilds all participated. Although he did not perform well and was defeated by the carpet bombing of the magic turret created by the Canon Philia School, the executive director Kwon Myung-han and the crisis management response team were able to capture the unclear circumstances.

“Furthermore, according to our investigation, it was confirmed that someone systematically moved to enlist the Japanese and get them to participate in this attack. From large portal sites in Japan, including Arfandia, to very small community sites. Although we couldn't confirm it because we didn't have authority because it was a Japanese account, it is estimated that public opinion manipulation was extensively done.”

Public opinion that promotes antipathy and hatred toward Korea, which has rapidly increased at some point in Japan. Executive Director Kwon Myung-han smelled the secret operation carried out by direct intervention by the Japan Self-Defense Force's Cyber Command and the Cabinet Investigation Office.

However, since the information had already been collected and captured through the eyes of Argos, reported through Alice, and the whole process was being watched in real time, President Lee Mi-yeon did not show any surprise at such words from Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han.

“So... what do you want to say?”

At President Lee Mi-yeon's words to tell only the main points, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han took out a report he was holding in his hand and said with a cautious yet confident look.

“Anyway, it seems that Kazuki, the head of the Japanese branch, was deeply involved in this incident. Even if Alice did not provide relevant information, these are matters that could not have been caught if we were conducting periodic monitoring of major regions and powers.”

The Japanese branch intentionally concealed and concealed the relevant circumstances. If the user called Dex hadn't stopped it, it would cause enormous damage to the Korean continent, and at the same time, the whole war would have to expand to a scale that could not be dared to handle.

Although it did not lead to such a catastrophe, Kwon Myeong-han, executive director, spoke in a cold voice as his anger toward the Japanese branch intentionally avoided his phone calls and continued to be uncooperative did not disappear.

“There is a suspicion that Arcadia manipulated the flow of the game and maliciously intervened in a way that benefited Japanese users, not the smooth operation and management of Arcadia. In this regard, along with Branch Manager Kazuki, I would like to request an all-round special audit for Arcadia Japan Branch.”

Branch manager Kazuki tried to shove a huge candy into his mouth and the whole Korean branch. Even though the plan went beyond failure, it was a situation where they were locked in their mouths, but Kwon Myeong-han, executive director, was full of determination not to go over it. After receiving the report from his hand, President Lee Mi-yeon soon turned over the paper and began examining its contents.

“Hmm... I did a lot more research than I thought.”

President Lee Mi-yeon muttered with a surprised face. To her words, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han replied with a brightened face.

“I haven’t been able to find more concrete evidence due to lack of authority, but... I am sure that we will be able to figure out the truth if we proceed with the audit.”

Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon, who is full of determination to clearly reveal everything about this situation. However, President Lee Mi-yeon had to think about something a little different after seeing his face like that.

‘How do I go about this quietly...'

An incident that will not end with just one branch manager. It was an incident closely linked to the highest power organs of the Japanese government and even the prime minister, but the situation was too bad to explode now.

[I will file an impeachment bill against the electric government! This is a judgment on a huge corruption that refuses to communicate with the people and creates a huge sinkhole and gives huge profits to a specific company with the absurdity of building a huge underground city in the middle of downtown Seoul where 10 million people live!

] In the end, the situation declared war against the electric government. There would be nothing good in revealing the futile Japanese government's secret operations in a situation where the political situation was already chaotic, so President Lee Mi-yeon thought hard about something for a long time and soon stood up as if she had made up her mind.

“Come to think of it... didn’t you say there was a press conference today?”

“yes....? ah. yes. I was just going to report it to the boss and go down right away.”

When she asks about the press conference, which he is not normally interested in, Executive Director Kwon Myung-Han looks at his watch with a puzzled face. In response to his answer, President Lee Mi-yeon asked with her eyes wide open as if a little unexpected.

“oh? Are you presenting yourself?”

“Yes..... Because the matter is the matter.....”

Arcadia Co., Ltd. is notorious for being very unfriendly to reporters and does not communicate well.

The Korean branch of Arcadia Co., Ltd. suffered from all sorts of issues in the past and stood at the center of controversy, but until now, when an official statement was made to reporters, a spokesperson usually came forward.

However, this time, Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han, who decided that it would be difficult for a spokesperson to directly deal with the situation, decided to come out in front of the camera and talk about the situation, and was fully prepared. President Lee Mi-yeon said to him with a wide smile as if it went well.

“Good for you. That press conference will be announced by me.”

“yes....? You don't have to do that...”

Lee Mi-yeon, general manager of Arcadia Co., Ltd.

Since she, the CEO in charge of all branches around the world and the undisputed top decision maker, had never made such an announcement in front of reporters, executive director Kwon Myung-han was clearly taken aback by her sudden decision to make it herself.

However, President Lee Mi-yeon leaves him behind and leads the way out of the office and enters the elevator. I tried to follow her as she was heading to the lobby where the press conference was to be held, but CEO Lee Mi-yeon stopped her.

“Don’t follow me and watch me on TV in my office.”

CEO Lee Mi-yeon speaks with a bright smile as the elevator door closes.

At her last words, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han felt indescribable fear.

“Because I will take responsibility for this matter and take care of it.”
