123 The Group Chat

Sun Point Region had 16 cities inside of it. White Star City was the capital city. There were Five Tier Two Cities in the Sun Point Region. And 11 Tier One Cities.

These cities were the ones to receive the cutscene about the City Destruction.

"So sixteen cities will be attacked by those hooded figures," Emile said.

"We clearly understand our region," Scarlet Sunset said as she looked through the geography. The forest that lay near White Star City spanned a long distance. There were four cities that lay next to the forest. They called the forest Autumn Forest.

The region had mostly flat ground with some mountains here and there.

"Any particular places with weird geography," Emile asked.

"Most of the area is a normal region with plain, flat ground," Scarlet Sunset said.

"There's a small river next to these two cities," Nimble Rod pointed out.

"The other cities don't seem to have anything interesting around them," Emile said.

"Well, not all cities can be unique," Flower Queen replied.

"That's true. What should we do with the information?" Nimble Rod asked

"First, we should have a way for the players to group up quickly," Scarlet Sunset said.

"If the players were scattered around and grinding on mobs when we get attacked, then we'll have a high chance of losing." Scarlet Sunset continued.

"Wouldn't the easiest way be to create a group chat with most of the people from the city inside of it. Then we write one message and its received by the people," Emile said.

"It would take a lot of time to get people into the group chat," Scarlet Sunset said.

"It works," Flower Queen said with a shrug

They could have hundreds of people into a group chat without it lagging. They would use this method to give information to others. Technology made people more aware of the surroundings and the people.

"Step one is to create the group chat," Scarlet Sunset said.

"I got this," Emile said. he was the most famous among his party members. He was in lots of World Announcements.

"And group chat is now made," Emile said as he entered the settings and created one. They put any members that joined the chat into mute since having hundred of people talk at the same time wouldn't be ideal. This would only last for the beginning.

"Now, go around the city and ask people to join the group city," Emile said.

It was approaching night in the game.

Emile didn't have class on the next day so he stayed up with his party and went around the city and add people into the group chat.

He made his status appear above his head. It showed his name, level, and titles.

Mystical Flame, Level 12, Novice Destroyer, Pioneer, Noble.

The people around him could see his name if walked around. Emile and his party teleported into the city and walked in different directions.

Nimble Rod also tried to get people, but he had the worst efficiency sine speaking to others was challenging for him.

The adventure guild was one of the most popular locations for players since they could get quests with rewards. Emile walked into the adventure guild with steady steps.

Whispers spread around him. It grew as the players stared at Emile's name tag. The other party members allowed Emile to go to the most popular location since he was the most famous amongst the entire party.

Emile cleared his throat and began talking. He was getting familiar with talking to large crowds.

"I'm guessing you already know who I am. Well, if you don't, then my name is Mystical Flame," Emile said and pronounced each word slowly.

"Everyone here should have seen the cutscene that played a few minutes ago," Emile continued.

"To prevent our city from being destroyed I would like all of you to join a group chat where we can give information to everyone," Emile said.

"Hmm... that's a good way to talk to everyone."

"True. And we can hang out with the number one player if we join!"

"Yeah. He might give us tips on how to use our Nirvanic Skills."

"Turn off your invite blocker of you want to receive an invite," Emile said.

Emile was glad that there was a quick way of sending out invites without going one person at a time. It was like an AOE attack. Anyone in his surroundings would get an invite from him.

He activated the thing and a flood of people joined into the group chat.

"All right, I want you guys to tell your friends that live in this city to join the group chat," Emile said.

There were many good things about the group chat. Every good thing has an opposite bad thing about it. They could spy the group chat on by people from other cities which wouldn't be a bad thing during normal operations. But if the city was planning to attack another city, then having knowledge of their moves would be vital.

Emile and his party continued wandering and adding random people into the group chat. The effort paid off since they got around 100 people into the group chat.

Emile posted the first message.

"We will use this group chat to inform you about any city-wide threats or information," Emile wrote.

"I'll add a subgroup for people to talk and add suggestions for us," Emile said. It was like a discord server with many small groups for people to talk.

The first thing they wanted was for Emile to reveal how he got so strong. He gave them the information without hiding it. Fight bosses by yourself. It was as simple as that.

This got hate since they assumed that he was hiding it. The hate disappeared after a few moments as the conversation topic moved elsewhere.

"We need people to manage this stuff," Emile said.

"You can ask Handsomest Crab and his group of pals to manage the chat," Flower Queen said.

"Well if they want to," Emile said. He couldn't force them to do anything they didn't want to do.

Emile messaged Handsomest Crab and told him about the group chat.

"Wait, so I can be a moderator of sorts to help people out," Handsomest Crab said.

"Yeah," Emile said.

"All right, I'm willing to do that," Handsomest Crab said.

Emile gave him power over others. He was the first moderator of the group chat. The Handsomest Crab would create the rules and moderate the people. A set of rules were being created by the group. They would use the group chat an enormous amount of times in the future.

The usage varied. Gathering people to join the group chat took multiple hours of their life. It was in the middle of the night, so Emile logged off to get sleep.
