MMORPG: Martial Gamer

Evil Rampage is a businessman, but he is not a low-profile person.

When the professional league had just concluded, Evil Rampage quickly signed the Crowd of Misfits (Crowd of Misfits) team with lightning speed. Fearless had already anticipated that this day would come.

"Wood that stands out in the forest will be blown down by the wind."

In reality, if a person is too high-profile, they will inevitably attract envy, let alone in the world of online games, which lacks moral constraints.

After all, Peerless Heaven is just a new guild.

Guilds require time to build up.

Established guilds like Sanguine Alliance, which have been operating for many years, possess deep foundations and extensive connections, and they must develop gradually, afraid of being targeted as the "first bird" that sticks its head out.

Yet Peerless Heaven has risen so quickly, developing into a massive guild with a million members in less than a year—what a terrifying situation that is!

Back in the day, even a small spark could ignite a prairie fire, but none had such momentum.

While having a large number of people is indeed powerful, it is based on unity; even the legendary world's number one guild, Termination Manor, had only a few tens of thousands at its peak.

For a guild like Peerless Heaven, having a million members in less than a year is impressive, but the majority of players haven't even seen what Evil Rampage looks like, let alone the so-called corporate culture. Such a guild, if not united, probably lacks even the most basic cohesion.

A large team can lead to scattered hearts; in a big forest, there are all kinds of birds.

Even if Evil Rampage pays salaries monthly, can he win the people's hearts online? Impossible! There are plenty of rare ores of unknown origin on the market.

This shows that people are inherently profit-driven! Numerous players secretly undermine the guild, digging under the table, keeping the good ores for themselves to sell.

Such a guild, if it can be called one, is at best a resource-granting mining site. Aside from the initial trusted few around Evil Rampage, the vast majority of players are just opportunistic individuals who believe that "whoever has milk is mother."

With an unstable foundation, the whole structure may collapse.

Evil Rampage is purely a case of taking too big a step and pulling a muscle.

With a guild that has no cohesion, isn't it likely to collapse at any moment?

If Evil Rampage had acted low-profile, other guilds wouldn't have bothered to poke at such a paper tiger. But unfortunately, Evil Rampage is a high-profile person, naturally making himself a target.

In the game, what are the situations of these big guilds? Usually, everyone gets along well, calling each other brothers. But once someone has an issue, those who once called each other brothers may be the first to kick them when they're down.

With Evil Rampage's temper, he must have offended quite a few people, and once Peerless Heaven has a problem, it's likely that the major guilds in the main cities will rush in to divide it among themselves without needing any behind-the-scenes manipulation.

You see, Evil Rampage is running a pretty big business, yet his business model is shockingly simplistic and brutal.

To put it bluntly, if you join my guild, you sign a non-withdrawal contract, and the mining area can be developed jointly. The more ores you bring in, the higher your salary.

Such a simple contract lacks any commercial nature; at most, it's a large workshop, with Evil Rampage as the workshop owner. Apart from having the right to develop the mining area, he has no means to control his employees.

This model, of course, has many loopholes.

Hiring laborers? This is something that landlords did before the liberation… How outdated is that?

Evil Rampage knows his business model is flawed… but what can he do? Everyone is here to play a game, not to sell themselves. If the terms are too harsh, naturally, fewer players will want to join his guild.

If a guild has no members, heh…

In <<Rebirth>>, among the three hundred main cities, there are at least a hundred guilds with over ten thousand members. If Evil Rampage's guild has fewer people, the mining areas won't be secure, making this operational model a last resort.

Because of this, Evil Rampage not only lacks control over his employees but is, in a sense, constrained by them. That such a guild has lasted this long is already quite a feat.

Of course, Fearless knows that this incident was definitely triggered by Wang Yu's forced demand for materials, but that is just a fuse.

After all, the hidden dangers of Peerless Heaven have existed for a long time. Such a big bubble, even if Wang Yu doesn't pop it, will inevitably burst when they expand to the extreme.

At that time, Peerless Heaven will surely resemble Termination Manor from back in the day, with small factions rising, each holding power, making it even harder to deal with.

On the contrary, now that Peerless Heaven has been established for less than a year, most of the internal factions haven't yet solidified, so it might not be a bad thing for Wang Yu to expose it at this time.

"Where is Old Evil now?" Fearless asked with a frown.

"Don't know!"

Wang Yu shook his head and said, "He only said 'help' and didn't send me his coordinates. He's definitely being cornered."

"Doesn't matter!"

Fearless pondered for a moment, then turned to Spring Halo nearby and said, "Brother Spring, use the Thousand Mile Eye to check Evil Rampage's coordinates."

Thousand Mile Eye is a general magic spell that can be learned from the Mage Mentor. It costs gold to accurately investigate the coordinates of a specified player, making it an essential skill for killing and looting, as well as for long-distance pursuits. The downside is that not only does learning the skill cost money, but it also costs a lot of gold to level it up further after reaching level ten...

The members of the Quan Zhen Sect engage in mischief together, so learning more would just waste money, which is why only Spring Halo has maxed out this skill.

"What's up?"

Spring Halo seemed to sense something and cautiously said, "Why not just ask him instead of spending money to check coordinates?"

"Old Evil is being chased right now and doesn't have time to send us his coordinates!" Fearless said lightly.

"Being chased?"

Although Fearless's voice was not loud, it reached everyone's ears.

Upon hearing Fearless's words, everyone in the Quan Zhen Sect was taken aback, their attention shifting back from Old Wang, exclaiming, "Old Evil has a million subordinates, who would dare chase him? Do they want to die?"

"Hmph!"

Fearless snorted coldly and said, "What does having a million subordinates matter? Maybe the ones chasing him are his own subordinates!"

"Who? How unfortunate to be chased by their own subordinates?"

At this moment, Old Wang, oblivious to the gazes of the crowd, sensibly sheathed his long knife and walked over, saying gleefully, "He can't even manage his own subordinates. This guy is really pathetic. What's this fool's name? I'll go mock him later."

This old fellow just loves to watch others' misfortunes, truly lacking any class...

"Uh…"

Everyone was momentarily speechless. Fearless cautiously replied, "This fool is named Evil Rampage."

"Evi… What the hell!"

Old Wang was about to mock him, but upon hearing the name, his eyes widened, and a curse escaped his lips.
