Upon noticing Xu Feng's astonishment of OneManMedia's appearance, Erica became suspicious.
"Haven't you been stuck in the gaming capsule for days?" Erica took a sip of the drink and continued, "I thought you were a frantic player of the Divine World, so shouldn't you be keeping up with the latest news to stay ahead? Or are you just one of the casual players?"
"C-Casual player?" In disbelief, Xu Feng was thinking how she was labeled as such.
This was especially true when OneManMedia obtained those exclusive news through him and his connections.
"Look at you being in a daze." Erica rolled her eyes and decided to be kind.
"OneManMedia is like the lone man he is and Report Cherry spent a lot of effort to convince the latter to be interviewed by them. In the first interview, he revealed a Rare sword called Stormfang Blade."
She then went on how the ripple of effect came to be when it was revealed a player had obtained a Rare equipment already. "Many sought to recruit him or ask him for advice, but OneManMedia remained quiet. He only revealed brief but very informative news.
Hearing it, Xu Feng finally realized why OneManMedia's level was relatively low.
'So he's been playing a celebrity and neglected his leveling.' Xu Feng knitted his brows, his gaze staring at OneManMedia.
Surprisingly, at this particular instance, OneManMedia, who had been talking, suddenly shivered.
"Is there something wrong, OneManMedia?" Report Cherry asked in concern upon noticing his abnormality.
OneManMedia laughed awkwardly before scratching his head. "Heh, I'm fine, I was just shivering because this new update would change a lot of major force structures who had established quite a foothold in numerous cities."
"Oh, can you elaborate further?"
"Of course, let's take Dawnshire City as an example." OneManMedia responded, cleverly avoiding the topic of Star Falls City.
For some reason, he felt a cold chill when he was about to mention it. His intuition was rarely incorrect, so he was positive that the one person he feared the most must have been watching him secretly.
After noticing the chill he got, vanished when he mentioned another city, he visibly relaxed and continued his report, "In Dawnshire City, the major guild forces consisted of Silver Wind, Tyrant Fist, Lion Roar, and Silver Legion. But among them, the Silver Wind guild led by Gentle Wind was the most amazing one.
It could be said that Gentle Wind controls at least 20% of the current market in Dawnshire City."
20% was by any means no small percentage, given the other guild only had single digit percentage, with the exception of Tyrant Fist which had 10%.
"I've heard of the amazingness of Guild Leader Gentle Wind and the Silver Wind's feat. They were the first to clear a Hell-Mode difficulty Scorched Caverns and ushered its fame to new heights." Report Cherry clamored, purposely adding hype to the guild's reputation.
In a sense, this was like an advertisement for the Silver Wind guild.
'I wanted to talk about Vanguard guild first, but I'll just forget it.' OneManMedia inwardly thought, deciding against it.
He was not instructed to promote Vanguard guild anyway, but he did make a promise with Gentle Wind when she agreed to the exclusive interview back then. Thus, he was merely fulfilling it now and being free of that debt.
"That's right, the Silver Wind guild is now considered a legend, but the challenges ahead of them won't be easy." OneManMedia pointed it out.
"With the major update undergoing, no one knows what kind of changes will affect the Divine World. But given its fairness and harsh reality of the environment, one could imagine that a monopoly of a city would be hard to achieve."
"Speaking of monopoly, I remember there's another guild whose popularity and influence is even more than Silver Wind guild. They are called Vanguard." Reporter Cherry suddenly brought up another guild, which instantly caused OneManMedia's face to turn pale.
No matter how hard he tried to avoid that topic after the sudden chill he felt, Reporter Cherry's instinct and perspectives were hard to deceive.
As an experienced game reporter for many years, how could Cherry remain ignorant when there was a guild who managed to cause the branch Reaver Guild to suffer so many losses?
Suddenly at this moment, OneManMedia's phone vibrated for a second.
Confused, he recalled turning off all notifications, with the exception of one person.
'It can't be right?' Anxious, OneManMedia snuck a glance at the phone and the message. His nervousness swiftly changed to a confident and proud one.
"Indeed, by now, everyone should have heard or know about Vanguard guild." OneManMedia announced. "In fact, I have another insider news that I wished to say today."
"Oh, another insider news?" Excited, Reporter Cherry's eyes were literally glittering. Everytime OneManMeida revealed an insider news, the broadcast rating soared through the roof, with many even sending emails and messages in hopes to learn more.
OneManMedia cleared his throat and said, "This is from one of the upper-echelon of the Vanguard guild. They said they will soon open up a livestream channel and will give viewers a first-hand view on the major update."
"A livestream channel?" Astonished, Reporter Cherry was clearly taken aback by this news. Of course, a livestream event wasn't anything surprising, given Gentle Wind had been doing it for a while.
However, this was regarding the Vanguard guild, a mysterious guild whose background and power remained unknown to the majority.
"H-How does the Vanguard guild know what will happen in the major update? As a keen game reporter, Cherry easily spotted such hints.
"Hmm, they don't know either, but given their conducts. I bet they would research a ton ahead of many players and guilds." OneManMedia shrugged.
To be honest, even he couldn't comprehend the methodology of the Vanguard guild.
As the two continued to talk about the process and moved on to other segments, Erica subtly changed the channel to some new drama.
"Well, that's interesting." She mumbled softly.
"You're interested in the Vanguard guild livestream as well?" Xu Feng asked curiously while sending a thumbs-up emoji to OneManMedia.
