Survival in the Core: I'm writing a guide for the entire server.

As soon as the post was published, players flocked to it.

"Reserving this spot! What's the topic of today's strategy post, sir?"

"Killing monsters without taking damage?! That's outrageous!"

"Lin You, you're truly a genius! How did you even notice that!"

"If you can run the Undead Invasion dozens of times, you can too."

"How are grappling hooks made? What materials are needed?"

"It's written in the post: a claw hook and a chain, with the chain made on a metalworking table."

"Oh no, I don't have a metalworking table, I can't make chains..."

"I've saved this; I'll try the brute-force method first."

"I actually noticed that too, but not as detailed as the expert's summary."

Some people noticed the last paragraph of the post.

"Wait, what did Boss Lin You mean by 'wicked villains' at the end? Did someone offend him?"

"I don't know, the boss never says things like that, something must have happened."

"I just saw it in the Earth's Core Daily! Lin You's friend was being chased by three players from another region!"

"What?! Such a thing exists?!"

"The daily report says that those three people have been killed by Boss Lin You, but the Boss is very unhappy."

"Because those three thugs had already killed many people in our district before this!"

"Well done! That kind of scum deserves to die!"

"Damn it, even though I'm not as good at fighting as Boss Lin You, I'd definitely step in if I encountered a thug like that!"

"Me too! I'll kill them all!"

"By the way, which newbie zone are those three from? Expose them!"

"It seems to have been merged, and it belongs to a district where there were many casualties before."

"No wonder they were so savage; they survived in that kind of environment."

"Don't generalize and condemn everyone. I was also merged in, but I never cause trouble."

"Yes, there are good people in other areas too, don't generalize."

"As Lin You said, new players from other regions are welcome, but only for villains."

"Support the leader! We won't stand for anyone who dares to cause trouble in server 25535!"

"I second that!"

The comments section was surprisingly unanimous, with almost everyone expressing their support for Lin You.

Lin You looked at the comments and nodded secretly.

Before he posted the strategy guide, Elena had already published the latest issue of the Earth's Core Daily.

Only then did someone understand the cause and effect of the matter and help him explain.

Elena is a very reliable girl.

He leaned back in his seat, preparing to rest for a moment.

Just then, a system notification popped up.

Player "Cheng Yan" invites you to join the private channel "25535 Newbie Zone Important Matters Seminar"

【Whether to accept? 】

Lin You raised an eyebrow.

"A seminar on major issues?"

It doesn't matter who this player named Cheng Yan is.

The important thing is that he has the ability to open a private channel.

The cost of 1 silver coin per day is not something that ordinary players can afford.

Moreover, judging from the channel name, this channel is probably not a random toy created at random.

They probably want to recruit the strongest individuals from District 25535 to form an organization similar to a council.

"The ideal is good, but we don't know what the outcome will be."

After a moment's thought, Lin You decided to accept the invitation.

Anyway, I'm just idling around until the Watcher's Rift refreshes.

Let's see what this guy named Cheng Yan is up to.

Perhaps, besides him, many other well-known experts from the newbie zone have already joined.

You have joined the private channel "25535 Newbie Zone Important Matters Seminar"

[Channel Speaking Restrictions: None]

After confirming, a chat window automatically popped up in front of Lin You.

[Player "Earth's Core Pioneer - Lin You" has joined the current channel]

As soon as this message appeared, the previously quiet chat room finally became lively.

[Vincent: Lin You? He was dragged into this too?]

[Shawn: Oh my...this is finally getting interesting]

[Lu Ge: What exactly happened?]

Kane: Hmph... So this is the strongest player in the 25535 newbie zone?

[Takashi Shiraishi: It's you! The murderer who killed my friend!]

Seeing the familiar names at the top, Lin You smiled knowingly.

Although he had no connection with these people.

But you can always hear it in the comments section of posts or from other players.

However, the two people behind him were not so friendly.

If he remembered correctly... this Kane should be the strongest player in a merged newbie zone.

As for that last guy who was yelling, could he be a friend of the three players he killed?

Just when the atmosphere in the chat room was getting a little awkward.

The chat room owner has finally shown up.

Cheng Yan: Ahem, everyone, please be quiet for a moment. First of all, thank you, Mr. Lin You, for accepting the invitation.

[Cheng Yan: If Mr. Lin You isn't here, this channel is meaningless.]

Cheng Yan: I think others probably feel the same way.

Cheng Yan's profile picture is of a man wearing a helmet, around thirty years old, with a calm expression.

Lin You thought for a moment and felt that it wouldn't be appropriate to remain silent, so she responded.

[Lin You: So, what's this channel for? Why did you invite me?]

[Cheng Yan: As the channel name suggests, the original intention was to discuss some important matters concerning the 25535 newbie zone.]

[Cheng Yan: Some grudges that are inconvenient to disclose can also be negotiated and resolved here.]

Before Lin You could ask any further questions, someone started to raise doubts.

[Kane: Discussing important matters? Resolving grudges? Why do you think you have the ability and the influence to do so?]

Kane: If I had to choose someone who could command respect, I think Lin You is far superior to you, a nobody.

Although what he said was true, Lin You sensed a hint of aggression in it.

Clearly, the other party only saw him as a weapon.

Cheng Yan: Hehe, I think so too, but Mr. Lin You probably doesn't have time to worry about these trivial matters.

Cheng Yan: It doesn't matter who manages this channel; the most important thing is to have a channel for communication.

[Cheng Yan: The public channel only allows three posts per day, but here you can speak freely]

[Cheng Yan: If we encounter similar events like the newcomer competition again, we can discuss tactics together.]

Cheng Yan: You are all among the best players, so you should understand what I mean.

At this point, Lin You understood Cheng Yan's purpose.

To put it simply, it's about creating a small group of expert players.

We can chat and joke around normally, and discuss any news or developments immediately.

This form of organization is not bad; it's not very coercive.

Unfortunately... some people don't think so.

[Takashi Shiraishi: Wait, let's deal with this guy killing my friend first!]

[Channel Notice: "Takashi Shiraishi" has been removed from the channel by the administrator]

Cheng Yan: Excuse me, Mr. Lin You, I accidentally let a mad dog in.

Seeing this smooth and effortless operation, Lin You's lips twitched.

Before he could even block the guy, Cheng Yan had already kicked him out.

[Lin You: So, who exactly is this guy?]

[Vincent: He joined after the newbie zones were merged. He's quite skilled, considered a strong player in the original newbie zones, but his character... isn't very good.]

[Vincent: Those thugs you took down were probably his henchmen, so they wanted to get revenge after seeing you today.]

[Lin You: I see, thank you for the explanation]

[Vincent: Um... Hey bro, can we be friends? I've been following your guides.]

[Lin You: Of course, I've seen some of your posts, they're all pretty good.]

Vincent successfully secured Lin You's friend status.

The other players in the chat room immediately became restless.

[Lu Ge: Count me in too... Let's have a match sometime and see how we're done]

Xia Qi: Big brother won't reject me, right?

Cheng Yan: Uh... Can I also request a friend slot?

Lin You: ...

Looking at the overwhelming number of friend requests, Lin You was both amused and exasperated.

The original intention was to discuss important matters, so do you really have nothing else to talk about?

However, the fact that others have nothing to say does not mean that Lin You has no important information.

"Perfect... this news isn't helpful for ordinary players."

"But for these strong individuals, it should have an even greater value."

After a moment's thought, Lin You slowly dropped a bombshell in the chat room.

[Lin You: Speaking of which, I have some news about the "Earth Core Alliance"]
