Not since the Hypixel War event has Twitch seen so many viewers.
After much discussion, the company's executives decided that they would allocate most of the advertising resources to Minecraft, since while the second most watched game had only 150k viewers watching simultaneously, Minecraft maintained 2 million viewers at all times!
During peak hours that number rose to an incredible 5 million!
And among Minecraft streamers, the biggest was NedTheKing, who currently had 1.3 million viewers watching his live stream.
Many would think that NedTheKing was doing some championship, or a raffle for viewers, or maybe even a livestream with some famous person, but no, what Ned was doing was a political campaign!
On the livestream screen, Ned was standing on top of a makeshift stage that players had made in the Skyblock lobby as he looked down at the thousands of players looking down at him.
"Dear citizens of Hypixel Skyblock, the Mayoral elections are approaching and as you know, I, NedTheKing, have always been very sincere with all of you about my goal.
Unlike other candidates who promise lower fees for using farm points, I don't intend to promise any of that!" Ned said with a serious expression on stage, as his Ender Dragon cape fluttered in the wind.
Upon hearing this, the players watching this speech were furious, but Ned continued.
"We know that farm zone usage fees are low, if we lower them even further the government won't be able to pay for everything, which will slow down the speed at which items spawn, further reducing the gain for all of us!
What I intend is to allocate the fees in a more efficient way, thus increasing the spawn speed for the resources in low level zones, so that newbies can earn money faster, while I will use the higher amount of income from newbies to increase the rarity of ores in high level zones!" Ned said with great pride the idea he had.
Upon hearing Ned's solution, the furious players were stunned, until they understood that this would actually work well for all of them, causing the players to scream excitedly.
"Down Mayor! Down Mayor! Down Mayor! Down Mayor!"
Though they yelled Ned Mayor, Ned was just hearing "King Ned!"
Running against Ned were even some former politicians from the real world, as they saw the possibility of gaining power and influence in this game that was growing so fast, but while these people were still stuck in retrograde ways of thinking, Ned who knew Minecraft very well knew how he could please the players perfectly.
While politicians thought that promising to lower taxes would mislead players, Ned knew that only real benefits would make players favor him.
Unlike the real world where politicians would have 4 years to develop things that voters liked, in Hypixel this time was only 14 days, that is, if the mayor was not satisfactory enough, in two weeks he would be replaced.
So Ned thought of something he could do in a short time that would please the players to secure his position as mayor.
Fortunately, from Ned's smile and people's excitement, the probability of him winning was very high.
After the speech, Ned walked over to his two friends who were waiting to the side.
One of his friends was someone he treated like a brother in reality, [PParker], while the other was someone they met in the Hypixel war, [Hulk].
Seeing that Hulk was getting stressed from standing here so long, Ned suggested that they go fight a Boss in the Skyblock's combat zone.
After Peter befriended Hulk, he discovered that this big guy really liked fighting monsters and breaking things, so he suggested to Hulk that they go to Skyblock, since there were many powerful Bosses.
Hulk wasn't very interested, until Peter said in a simpler way that there were strong monsters there and so Hulk got really excited.
Ned and Petter helped Hulk to kill the Ender Dragon the first time, thus managing to take Hulk to the Skyblock, where Hulk spent practically the entire day fighting.
As Hulk did nothing but fight, his mining and carpentry were very low, which made Peter and Ned have to help him get armor, but over time they saw something strange.
Despite still wearing level 20 armor, Hulk was fighting level 80 monsters!
It seemed that the more Hulk screamed, the more damage he dealt increased!
But Ned and Peter didn't worry about that, seeing how simple the Hulk's mind was they saw Hulk as a child, they felt they had to take care of like their little brother.
"Ahhhh!" Hulk started yelling angrily as he looked at the screen floating in front of him before clicking no.
Peter guessed what it was and asked. "Was that boring man again?"
Hulk who was furious screamed. "Yes, Hulk hates Banner, Banner can't stop pissing off Hulk, Hulk hates Banner even more!"
Seeing Hulk's reaction, the audience on Ned's live stream began to angrily comment as well.
[This Banner is very boring!]
[Yes, who could stand a person adding you non-stop?]
[If someone finds Notch, we might suggest an option to block a person!]
[Good idea!]
[Yes good idea!]
Peter and Ned looked at each other for a few seconds before Peter sighed and opened his friends list.
He didn't like doing that, but seeing how annoying this Banner was with Hulk, Peter decided to send Banner a message.
Seeing that the friend request he sent to Hulk had been declined again, Banner was frustrated again.
Initially he was overjoyed as he was feeling that he was back to being a normal person again!
He could go out and have fun with other colleagues at work, he could even watch soccer and cheer for a team, he could get mad that his team lost, all without worrying about getting mad and Hulk destroying everything.
But after a few days, Banner felt something was missing from him.
As much fun as it was to go back to being a normal person, seeing the Hulk news in the Hypixel Banner started to feel lonely.
When he saw that Hulk had a personality, and even participated in Ned's livestreams with a childish and simple persona, Banner started to have a guilty conscience.
"Maybe Hulk was just a kid this whole time…" Banner said guiltily.
If Hulk really was just a kid, Banner started to think about how he had treated Hulk like a disease, thought about the army trying to kill him all the time, everyone just treating him like a monster, while Hulk was just a kid who didn't control well. his feelings.
"I guess I should try to meet Hulk 'in person'?" Banner thought about trying to kill the Ender Dragon and find Hulk in the Skyblock.
When he logged into Minecraft, a friend request came to him.
[PParker].
