Chapter 1516: End of Colossuses Part 9
10 minutes earlier...
Prior to Xu Feng’s sudden declaration, he arrived at the room and met up with two people.
"It seems like the two of you made it back safely." Xu Feng smiled and greeted the two.
"Hehe, it’s all thanks to the Guild Leader’s quick arrangement." The two giggled heartily.
They were none other than Cute Joy and Little Honey, who had fled alongside the civilians with Hazel.
Their journey was a bit delayed because they decided to stay and help out the civilians, which somehow ended up benefiting them greatly.
"Have they sent the contract to you all yet?" He asked.
"Yes, they did." Cute Joy nodded.
"They even deposited all the payments in one go on the joint account." Little Honey giggled silly.
Never once in their life would they imagine being paid 3 million dollars for one stream.
It was unimaginable!
"I won’t control how you spend that money, but if you need help in how to use it properly, you can always ask the financial experts at Vanguard." Xu Feng wouldn’t be some monster and restrict their spending.
Their money, their freedom.
Of course, that was on the basis that they were spending that money of their own free will.
If it were coerced or through some other means by others to get their money, then they would have to face him.
"Hehe, by the way, why are we called here?" Cute Joy asked.
"Didn’t you sign the contract with Razor Technology? It’s time for you to begin the stream to fulfill them." Xu Feng smirked and explained the situation.
Soon, the two women couldn’t help but flash a vicious grin.
"Oh my, I can already see the rating soar."
"Our venue and viewership might break records again. No, it’ll definitely break records because this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
They could easily smell the money from streaming a pathetic sight of a rich generation heir to be humiliated and belittled in front of everyone.
In fact, they could even perceive themselves as the first live streamer to broadcast such an exclusive scene.
"What a pity..." Little Honey suddenly sighed. "Such a golden scene, but we can’t broadcast it on the Vanguard Platform."
As much as they wanted to broadcast it on the Vanguard Platform, it would become too obvious that they were affiliated with them.
Moreover, the contract stipulated that they were to broadcast on specific platforms only, one of which Razor Technology had shares in.
This made sense because they also wanted to profit from the stream. The only thing they failed to calculate was how pathetic their young heir had become.
"Alright, the trial will begin soon." Xu Feng clasped his hands and instructed a nearby guard to bring the two to the spectating area.
...
Present time
Both Cute Joy and Little Honey had begun streaming, and the viewers were already in a frenzy.
"> <Hahaha, look at that Edgar getting his head smacked repeatedly by an NPC!>
"> <Oh my god, did he really just utter those words aloud?>
"> <What a buffoon of an heir! How did he not discern the trap in the Vanguard Guild Leader’s words?>
"> <Idiot, I proposed! This Edgar topped the chart in idiocy when making an enemy out of the Vanguard Guild. Now he basically admitted to being guilty of the charges!>
While the viewers were sneering and having the time of their lives, in the main scene, Edgar’s face turned pale.
"What do you mean by guilty?" Edgar finally snapped out of his daze and realized what Xu Feng had just sentenced him to. "What exactly am I guilty of? I’ve never harmed or had any plans to target the civilians or the people of Divine World. I’m on humanity’s side!"
The Colossuses had also seriously disrupted Edgar’s businesses on multiple occasions.
There was simply no way he would ever ally himself with these bandits.
"Are you seriously asking me that?" Xu Feng chuckled amusingly and clapped his hands.
Soon, Cute Joy and Little Honey descended from their platform. Their appearance quickly startled Edgar.
"What are you two doing here?" Edgar was confused. He had seen the livestream of the battle at the defense border previously, so he naturally recognized them.
"Hi, we were paid by your father to stream a day in your life in the Divine World." Cute Joy waved her hand and explained the circumstance.
"Huh?" Edgar was in a complete daze. His brain didn’t know when or how to process the information.
His father paid someone to stream his failure?
Wait, no, that wouldn’t make any sense!
Why would his father pay someone to have the world know he had a useless son?
Wasn’t that equivalent to smashing his own foot?
"No... my father wouldn’t let you slander me like this." Edgar shook his head.
"Well, it’s the truth." Cute Joy smirked and flashed a screenshot of the contract.
A few minutes later, Edgar’s face turned ashen white.
’What the hell?’ He appeared to be in disarray. When and why did his father establish such a contract when he was sent to prison?
Did his other subordinates who escaped not inform his father of the situation in the Divine World?
One really couldn’t blame Edgar’s current mental breakdown. The time of his prison time just happened to clash with the time that Edward needed to focus on controlling the stock price from falling.
His other subordinates also didn’t dare to disturb him when he was serious at work.
After all, one wrong word could easily mean losing their job.
And who in their right mind would wish to risk losing a high-paying salary?
"Come on, Mister Edgar. Smile for the camera." Cute Joy ignored his reaction and kindly suggested that he greet the audience. "Everyone is a fan of yours and wants to know how you will get out of the situation."
Little Honey quickly seized the opportunity and informed Edgar of the current poll ranking. "The majority of the audience believes you will apologize and pay a large fee to the Vanguard Guild Leader to escape, with only a few minority believing you will accept your miserable fate and refuse to beg for mercy."
