• Newcomers from C45 Zone and D41 Zone flooded the channel with pledges to follow Su Ye, while veteran C13 Zone players angrily insisted that Fuel Gauge belonged to them.
• Su Ye asked Mo Yu to investigate how the newcomers had lost so many players before considering their faction leaders for the Expedition Alliance.
• Mo Yu reported that the previous month’s hunt event had killed more than half the players in both zones because they could not effectively harm the spirit-body monsters.
