Something’s Wrong with This Game — I Became a God by Mining!

"The Public Channel allows you to spend ten taels of silver to display your message in front of every player..."

Yang Ling's expression was somewhat strange.

Just then, another message appeared:

[Anonymous (Lin Guoliang): Warning, be careful of the top ten on the Divine Realm Level Ranking, especially number one Yang Ling. They are hunting weak players!]

As soon as this message came out, all the players who knew Yang Ling were stunned.

Wu Xiaochen and the others exchanged bewildered looks. They had been happy about the activation of this feature, but now they realized it could bring unprecedented trouble!

"This anonymous player spent five hundred taels of silver just to frame Brother Yang. He must be Brother Yang's enemy!"

Chen Xu's expression was very grave.

Li Tianye and Wang Xudong exchanged glances, both seeing the worry in each other's eyes.

There were already over a thousand players at Vermilion Gold Ore, and this news could easily shake their hearts.

"God dammit, which bastard is it!?"

Wu Xiaochen cursed, then immediately took out ten taels of silver and sent a Public Channel message:

[Wu Xiaochen: What the hell are you talking about? If you have a grudge against us, take it up with us directly. Don't mislead other players here!]

[Zhang Shendao: I am Zhang Shendao, number four on the Divine Realm Level Ranking, a Divine Sect disciple. None of us in the top ten are hunting weak players. Please don't believe a coward who won't even reveal his name.]

[Lin Caiyi: I am Lin Caiyi of the Nine Immortals Dao Palace. The person who just sent that anonymous message is very likely a Heretic Cultist from the Immortal God Sect. Everyone, please be careful.]

[Qi Kai: Greetings to all the big shots. Also, I warn the anonymous person just now: if you keep talking nonsense, I will find you.]

Yang Ling frowned slightly. The other party said they were anonymous, but there was a bracket showing Lin Guoliang.

"Can I see the anonymer's real name while others can't?"

"Lin Guoliang is currently in the Ironclad Department Yamen in Green Mountain City, and he still managed to pull out five hundred taels of silver to send an anonymous message..."

A hint of a smile appeared in Yang Ling's eyes. He immediately took out ten taels of silver and sent a Public Channel message:

[Yang Ling: I am Yang Ling, Director of the First Division, Public Security Department, Changhe Prefectural Capital. There is a full-scale manhunt for Immortal God Sect Heretic Cultists here. The player who just sent the anonymous message is the Heretic Cultist Lin Guoliang, currently locked up in the Ironclad Department Yamen in Green Mountain City.]

Players across the Zhao State stared in stunned disbelief when they saw this message.

The anonymous player had been found out this quickly?

They didn't know whether to believe the anonymous player's warning.

After all, that Yang Ling's level was indeed terrifyingly high.

If they thought there was nothing fishy going on, they would definitely be lying.

In the Ironclad Department prison in Green Mountain City.

Lin Guoliang stared blankly at the messages before him, his expression turning into sheer terror.

"How is this possible? How could he know I sent that message? I spent a full five hundred taels on that anonymous message!"

"Is the Divine Realm messing with me?! The anonymity isn't actually anonymous!?"

He never imagined that the message he sent using the five-hundred-tael silver note sewn into his crotch would be seen through by Yang Ling.

He was already drowning in deep terror, his entire body trembling uncontrollably.

Wu Meng, locked up in the cell across from him, stared blankly at Lin Guoliang:

"Guoliang, did you really send that anonymous message? Why did you have five hundred taels of silver?"

Lin Guoliang instinctively stammered in panic, "It wasn't me. I swear it wasn't me."

Just then, another message appeared:

[Yang Ling: Serious warning. The Immortal God Sect is a cult in the real world, and it is also a cult being severely cracked down on by Zhao State. Even players who join the Immortal God Sect are targets of this crackdown. Please do not have any involvement with the Immortal God Sect.]

...

After Yang Ling sent that message, the Public Channel became very quiet.

Instead, people were privately messaging him.

Suddenly, there were over a thousand messages, each one nothing more than about sucking up to him.

Some even claimed outright to be a famous actress in the real world, hoping to get to know Yang Ling.

Yang Ling frowned slightly. There were too many private messages. The moment he had that thought, the system immediately displayed a prompt:

[Do you wish to disable private messages from unrelated individuals? (Only private messages from players you have encountered in the real world will be displayed.)]

"Disable."

Yang Ling directly chose to disable it. Players across the various regions suddenly found they could no longer privately message Yang Ling; their messages all showed as failed to send.

[Wei Ran (Private Chat): Boss Yang, today the Prefectural Governor brought people to Tingjiang City, but Director Wen stopped him and didn't let him enter the government office. After handing over those three heads, the other party wisely chose to leave.]

Yang Ling's mind stirred, and he sent a private message to Wei Ran:

[Yang Ling (Private Chat): Continue monitoring the situation. At the first sign of trouble, hide immediately and then send me a message.]

[Wei Ran (Private Chat): Got it! I have to say, this Divine Realm Communication Channel is really handy!]

Yang Ling didn't reply to this message, but private chats from Lin Caiyi and the others came through one after another.

He communicated with them for five minutes, sharing updates on their recent situations.

Then Qin Mo also sent a private chat, reporting that he was already on the road and everything was safe.

Yang Ling told him to be careful, try to travel at night, and avoid being intercepted by the Rong tribe's Heavenly Wolf Guard.

"This Divine Realm Communication Channel allows players scattered across different regions to establish contact in a short time."

"Players can use it to ask for help, buy things, sell things, share and exchange experiences..."

"In that case, it's like a golden finger that the Divine Realm has given to all players."

Yang Ling felt somewhat emotional.

He immediately understood that the activation of this feature would make life a little easier for players everywhere.

At the same time, it would speed up the players' growth process.

"But there's a threshold for sending messages. A Public Channel message costs 10 taels of silver. Ordinary players can only drool over it; they can't afford it at all."

"Furthermore, players who haven't cultivated aren't even Martial Artists. They can't open their Status Panel and aren't qualified to send messages either."

The messages on the Public Channel were few because, out of tens of millions of players, maybe only one in ten thousand could open their Status Panel.

And even among that one in ten thousand, very few were willing to waste 10 taels of silver on sending a random message.

The thousand-plus private messages just now proved that the players behind those chats were at least Martial Artists who had practiced martial arts.

[Anonymous (Li Fengxian): Missing person notice. I'm looking for a player named Li Jun. If anyone has information on his whereabouts, please post it on the Public Channel. I would be extremely grateful.]

Yang Ling looked at this anonymous message, a hint of amusement appearing in his eyes.

It seemed that Li Fengxian, the Sect Leader of the Immortal God Sect, was quite concerned about his son.

"What a moron. 'Extremely grateful' my ass. Doesn't he know sending a Public Channel message costs 10 taels of silver? And he chose to stay anonymous, what an idiot!"

"But what that Yang Ling said about the Immortal God Sect should be true. We all need to be careful lately and not get involved with them. Zhao State's official power is nothing to sneeze at."

Players across the regions had suddenly perked up because of these messages, talking much more than usual.

Yang Ling continued to focus on mining to level up, feeling the faint streams of cool energy flowing into his body, cleansing his fatigue. This filled his heart with a sense of security.

Leveling up was one of his foundations for standing firm.

It was also the foundation for all players to stand firm in the Divine Realm.

At the same time, Chen Guoqing had already brought Old Zhao to the prison.

He found Lin Guoliang and looked at him quietly.

Lin Guoliang's scalp went numb under that gaze, and he stammered, "That anonymous message really wasn't sent by me, Brother Chen, you have to believe me!"

Just then, Wu Meng's timid voice came from the cell across the way:

"Brother Chen, I want to report him!"
