Chapter 373: The Tree Falls and the Hozen Scatteres
(PS: 3800-word chapter, rolling all over the floor for recommendation tickets:-D)
The "eyes" of [Star Alliance] placed in [Slippery Wisp] did not get excited for too long.
Qingsi was locked in the guild channel, and then announced a news.
"In view of the current situation of the guild, I have decided to allow members to freely withdraw from the guild, or become lone rangers, or join other guilds. Everything is based on freedom, and the guild will no longer interfere."
As soon as Qingsikou finished speaking, the guild channel was blown up.
The 110,000 guild members gradually divided into two factions.
One of them is the action faction. After listening to Qingsikou's words, they chose to withdraw without saying a word. Now that the guild masters have conceded defeat, what are they still doing in the guild? There is no future in staying here.
Instead of this, it is better to get together and get together.
As skilled talents, the members of [A Silky Wisp] really don't have to worry about not being able to find another job.
Of course, there are also some members who are tired of the intrigues of the guild, and choose to be a lone ranger, run a shop in Wangcheng, make money while improving their skills, which is also a good choice.
The other faction is the loyal faction. They are on the channel of the guild, and they speak out to persuade them to stay.
"Guangzhu, don't want it, we don't want to part with [a trace]."
"Yeah, [A Silky Wisp] is our home, we don't want to leave!!!"
"Master, [A Silky Wisp] was built by us through hard work, and it cannot be disbanded!"
"Guangzhu, Gangzhu, come out and say something!"
"[A thread] is disbanded, what should we do!"
Some members fell into a panic and helpless situation, like wolf cubs abandoned by their mothers.
The mood of love thread is also extremely complicated at the moment.
On the one hand, there were bursts of proposals for members to withdraw from her ear, ding ding dong dong, and in less than two minutes, thousands of people had withdrawn from the membership, and the trend was getting worse.
On the other hand, it is the begging of members. The retention of members let Qingsikou know that there are still loyal people in the guild, and they still have feelings for the guild.
Even so, Qingsikou still had to be ruthless and continue this cruel test.
Qingsikou uttered again on the guild channel: "[A thread] will not be disbanded, but it will never be annexed by any guild. Even so, if there are still some left, I have nothing to say."
As soon as the words fell, some so-called "loyalists" began to waver in their hearts.
After experiencing this turmoil, it is basically a certainty that [One Thread] will fall into the top ten guilds. If the merger is not accepted, the future situation of the guild can be imagined.
For this reason, players who originally had a glimmer of fantasy chose to withdraw from the membership one after another.
The wave of withdrawals is intensifying.
Start from peripheral members, to elite members, and then spread to core members.
Seeing this, a trace of sadness flashed in Qingsikou's eyes. Especially the resignation of the core members hit her the hardest. These people are all brothers and sisters who have fought side by side with her for many years and have switched to several games.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, they still chose to leave.
The real interests involved in "Earth Online" are really too great. The purpose of players playing games is no longer simple. Too many interest entanglements, the loyalty to the players is naturally a great test.
The tree falls and the hozen scatter.
Qingsikou suddenly felt a sense of relief, and hoped that after going through this turmoil, [A Silky Wisp] could be reborn in Yazhou.
In just one afternoon, more than 40,000 members of [A Silky Wisp] have withdrawn from the membership, almost cut in half. Those who have not withdrawn from the guild are not all loyal ministers, they are just exchanging resources from the guild.
Before resigning from the guild, all members will basically spend all the guild points.
All of a sudden, all kinds of materials that had piled up in the guild's warehouse began to disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As the leader of the gang, Qingsikou can prohibit members from exchanging, but she did not do so. Members' points, after all, are their hard-earned savings, and even if they want to withdraw from the membership, they still have the right to redeem them.
The following plot was completely beyond the expectations of the "eyes", and the excited expression was suddenly frozen. They could only smile wryly while passing the latest information to their superiors.
Upon hearing the news that a large number of members of [A Thread of Wisp] had withdrawn from the guild, the guild in Kyoto exploded immediately.
Originally, [Sword Qi] and [Star Alliance] joined forces to intervene, but other guilds have given up their minds. Who would have thought that things would turn around like this.
Since [A Silky Wisp] refuses to be annexed, the members who withdraw from the membership no longer belong to which family, and how many people they can win depends on their ability.
The major guilds have been dispatched one after another, trying their best to win over the members who have withdrawn from the 【绝绝】resignation.
In the beginning, they approached each other one by one.
After the evolution, the major guilds simply set up recruiting points at the entrance of the headquarters of [A Silky Wisp].
As soon as the members of [A Silky Wisp] quit the guild, packed their luggage, and walked out of the guild's residence, they were pulled over by a group of guild "personnel directors" and invited them to join the guild.
The scene is extremely hot.
Some guilds even fought on the street in order to compete for members.
Inside the royal city, PK is prohibited. Otherwise, once caught by the six-door police, he will be imprisoned. They are not [Blood Blade], they are alone and can escape.
These guilds are all registered in the capital, and each of the six gates is sure to catch one.
Therefore, they can only fight with words, and what is great is the combination of fists and feet. Even if the six-door arrester arrives quickly, as long as it is not a fight with weapons, it can be interpreted as "exercise warm-up".
Not only the headquarters of [One Thread], but also the residences of the top ten branches, the same scene. Surrounding the entrance of the headquarters are all big guilds. Surrounding the branch's premises were a mix of large and medium-sized guilds.
As for small guilds, the temple is too small, and members of [A Silky Wisp] would never consider it.
Among them, there is even a figure of [Sword Qi].
Since the [Star Alliance] couldn't take down [A Silky Wisp], Yijian Xilai naturally didn't have to worry about anything, made a fortune silently, and instructed the personnel director of the guild to start recruiting a large number of [A Silky Thread] members.
Such a lively scene even alarmed other royal cities. [Blood Fiend Mercenary Group], [Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry], [Liuguang Pavilion] and other guilds heard the news and dispatched one after another, directly sending people to the capital to pull people.
Such a scene is really like a gluttonous feast.
[One thread] The former top ten guilds were the only main dish at the banquet.
In the feast, the most annoying person was none other than Xingzhe Dust.
When he got the first piece of information, Xingzhe Zhichen was still proud of his first battle and won a complete victory. In this way, it is a strong counterattack to the family's opposition.
After receiving the second day's information, Xingzhe Zhichen felt uncomfortable.
Turning around, falling from the clouds to the abyss.
Xingzhe Zhichen was so angry that he cursed: "Baby maid! She would rather disband on her own than join me."
Xingzhe Zhichen can be regarded as completely resentful of the instigator's affection.
May I ask, when has he ever suffered such humiliation? !
Xing Zhezhichen was so enraged that he was about to lose his mind, so he arranged for someone to take revenge on 【一满满】.
Fortunately, there are still capable people in the [Star Alliance].
At the critical moment, the strategist of the [Star Alliance] stood up and said: "Leader, concoct love threads. There will be opportunities in the future. The most important thing right now is to try to pull the members of [Silver] over."
Hearing this, Xingzhe Zhichen's anger subsided for a while, he patted the military division's shoulder, and said approvingly: "That's right, you reminded me right. I will leave this matter to you."
"Thank you, lord!"
The military division turned and retreated, and began to join in the feast.
This gluttonous feast lasted until the afternoon of the next day before it came to an end.
As of 4:00 pm on March 30th, [A Silk Thread], which had 110,000 members, ended up with less than 10,000 members left, who were willing to continue to run the guild with Love Thread.
Faced with such a scene, Qingsikou is really heartbroken.
When agreeing to Ouyang Shuo to conduct a test on the guild, Qingsikou could predict that a large number of members would withdraw from the guild. But what she didn't expect at all was that more than 90% of the members had withdrawn from the membership.
Qingsikou couldn't help but doubt herself, whether she, the gang leader, had failed too much.
Up to now, all [a trace] that can stay are diehard members of the guild. Even those "eyes" are basically gone.
Only [Star Alliance] still inserted an eye in [A Silk Thread]. Needless to say, the reason is that Xingzhe Zhichen has a grudge in his heart and is ready to take revenge at any time.
For this feast, [Star Alliance] recruited less than 3,000 members. On the contrary, [Sword Qi] has recruited nearly 10,000 people, which is enough to form a club of purely professional players.
Guilds, large and small, in Kyoto all got a share of the pie.
The top ten guilds in the other royal cities also made enough money. The [Blood Fiend Mercenary Corps] family alone has recruited more than 5,000 people, which is more than the local snake [Star Alliance].
The influence of [Star Alliance] is obviously not as great as Xingzhe Zhichen imagined. Three thousand to one hundred and ten thousand, a huge gap, how can Xingzhe Chen not be angry.
He has already decided to take revenge on [A Silky Wisp], making it impossible for him to gain a foothold in the capital.
The three guilds of the Shanhai League also joined this feast.
Ouyang Shuo got the news, but didn't express anything. He is the leader of the Shanhai League, but he will not easily interfere with the internal decisions of the members and commit a big taboo.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Qingsikou made a rough count. Among the 10,000 people, there were about 3,000 left in the main guild, which was the lowest withdrawal rate.
After getting the statistical results, Qingsikou finally felt a little relieved.
At least the main guild she worked so hard to manage is basically trustworthy. Among the hundreds of core members, fully half of the members stayed.
The top ten clubs are a bit appalling. The one with the most number was only one thousand people left, and most of them fell below one thousand. One or two newly established branches have almost disappeared, leaving only a few people.
In desperation, Qingsikou had no choice but to gather all the members into the main guild. As for the ten chapters, only an empty shell remains.
After clearing her mind, Qingsikou began to speak on the guild channel.
"Every member, I am Love Silk Button!"
The same sentence sounded on the guild channel, but the meaning was quite different.
The drastic changes experienced by the guild made the ten thousand loyalists panic.
This is the most vulnerable moment of [a thread], but also the most [powerful] moment. The remaining members became extremely united. Only when they are united can they hug each other for warmth and survive this "cold winter".
"A friend in adversity is a friend. At a critical moment, I saw everyone's loyalty, which moved me very much. Now, I want to announce that the headquarters of [A Thread] will be relocated to Yashan City."
"Yashan City?"
"Yashan City is the city built by China's first lord, Qi Yue Wuyi, on Qiongzhou Island. There, it will be the land of [a thread of] nirvana. Those who don't want to leave Kyoto can still leave now, and I won't force it."
For Yashan City, Qingsikou didn't explain too much. Even so, Qiyue Wuyi's gold-lettered signboard still allows the members to see a ray of sunshine in the cold winter.
It was said that there were only sporadic members who chose to withdraw from the membership because they did not want to leave Kyoto. For these members, Qingsikou has prepared a generous severance package for them.
After all, they stood the test and deserve to be rewarded.
The materials in the guild's warehouse are only a small part of [a wisp of] assets. After all, those materials are common materials, and the rare materials have long been collected by Qingsibu.
[One thread] The real valuable assets are the various properties that the guild has bought in Kyoto, including hundreds of workshops and fifty or sixty shops.
There are some shops, which are still in the bustling area of Kyoto.
These industries are all saved by [a thread] of hard work and hard work over the past year. The purpose is to provide a platform for members to sharpen their skills, and it is also the main source of income for the guild.
The finished products processed by the members are all sold through shops.
These precious properties were sold out within a day by the thread of love.
The only thing preserved is the headquarters compound. One is that the love thread button wants to leave a thought. The second is to leave a piece of property in the capital. In the future, the members of [Small Wisp] will also have a place to stay when they return to Beijing to work.
Even the empty shells of the ten branches were also sold to other guilds by Qingsikou.
In total, Qingsikou collected a total of 160,000 gold coins. This amount of money is the capital for [a wisp] to make a comeback in Yashan City.
