    Chapter 523: Netizens Are All Talented

    "What? Young Master Karoso is a follower of the Evil God?"

    "Oh my, that’s terrifying!"

    "Will our Canglang Province become like before, with everyone becoming his sacrifice?"

    "Oh my God, I’m not afraid of dying, but I don’t want to be a ghoul!"

    In this world, people shudder at the mention of the Church of the Lord of Eternity.

    Karoso thinks the Lord of Eternity is good, but just because he feels that way does not mean that his followers are without faults.

    The followers of the Church of the Lord of Eternity are as crazy as they can be.

    Kazan took a newspaper and looked at it with a serious face.

    "Damn, something big has happened," Kazan said darkly, "Karoso, where did you get the power of the Lord of Eternity?"

    "Oh? Did someone catch me using it, or what?" Karoso raised an eyebrow.

    The Lord of Eternity’s Law of Absorb is indeed very powerful, but Karoso is now a demigod, and he could only fully record it if he was prepared beforehand.

    The battlefield was chosen by Karoso, and they had no chance to fully document it.

    Those several ninth-tier beings were already scared out of their wits by Karoso; they were barely able to protect themselves, so how could they waste their energy on recording?

    Those ordinary Card Makers couldn’t even see what was happening.

    "You can see for yourself." Kazan slammed the newspaper down in front of Karoso.

    Karoso glanced at it; it was a newspaper released by the United Nations, with all churches joining in their statement.

    There were no direct pieces of evidence on it, just a photo looking up at the battlefield, and the power Karoso used wasn’t captured at all.

    However, the words on it did reveal the truth of the situation.

    "Do you know what this means?" Kazan said with a serious expression, "Canglang Province may crumble to pieces!"

    "Don’t forget, the people of Canglang Province are descendants of disaster survivors, and many of the monsters that emerged from the dungeon were created by followers of the Lord of Eternity."

    "If you are connected to the Lord of Eternity, any power related to you could face trouble!"

    "Whether it’s Aileen’s revolutionary army, Teresa’s revolutionary army, or our army from Canglang Province, they might flee without fighting!"

    "Use power to suppress things for now," Karoso said, "Time will prove everything."

    "You still don’t understand how serious this is!" Kazan shouted. "How long can we hold them back? No one dares to stand with the cult of the dark god!"

    "History’s right and wrong, the truth of the gods, these are all written by the winners," Karoso said calmly. "Brother, think carefully. I have this power, but what if I didn’t? They would still write it this way, and I can’t do anything about it."

    Kazan was silent for a moment and sighed, "So, your original idea might have been wrong. If you make enemies of the whole world, they can deal with you however they want."

    "If you are really called a follower of the dark god, the force you built will fall with you, and then you won’t be able to do anything."

    "Everything you do will be seen as part of the dark god’s scheme!"

    "Brother, Father probably saw this coming long ago, but he still went behind the scenes to help me. Do you know why?" Karoso smiled.

    "Why?" Kazan asked, surprised.

    "Because they hold the power of words, but not absolute power," Karoso stood up. "Public opinion is a very scary weapon, but this world is not just black and white, and what they say is not the only truth."

    "When the people lose faith in their country and start to distrust it, do their words still hold any value?"

    "When their words start to contradict each other, does the so-called public opinion attack still work?"

    "The public is easily swayed, but as long as the opinion turns around, the so-called cult followers’ opinions become useless."

    "What opinion can compare to the newspapers of the United Nations and the Church? Who would dare to speak for you at this moment? Yes, I can bet the entire Canglang Province that they trust Colloa more than you, but does that matter? Canglang Province cannot change the world." Kazan said sternly.

    "Actually, they shouldn’t deal with me like this." Karoso smiled slightly, "Because my friends understand public opinion better than they do."

    [Hahaha, it’s time to give these natives from another world a lesson.]

    [News? Who on earth dares to believe it now?]

    [Official or authoritative.]

    [A certain female detective wasted someone’s time for eighteen years, and now she’s a high official in the hall. Wrongful cases? As long as they can be solved, that’s enough. Not only are they not handled, but she continues to rise in rank.]

    [The Red Word Association can’t enter the international scene; you can’t blame others for not accepting them.]

    [How many official accounts have been banned because of the comments section?]

    [Some people really handle things in a magical way, like a thief stealing a watermelon, and the farmer chasing after him, but when the thief falls, the farmer has to pay for the medical bills.]

    [Okay, let’s not talk about useless things. The problem we have is our own issue. Trustworthiness is built by doing our work seriously. Let’s help Master Karoso first.]

    [Starting a new group: Public Opinion Group]

    [I am a hired commenter.]

    [I am the manager of hired commenters.]

    [I do crisis public relations.]

    [I write articles. As long as they pay, I can write anything, even if it goes against my conscience.]

    [I work in new media; I started in the UC Shock Group.]

    [I study journalism and I am good at exaggerating the truth.]

    [I am amazing; I am skilled at twisting the facts.]

    [I can take a quote and make it mean ten different things.]

    [I can write little essays, and I have a special condition too.]

    [When I was young, I helped my brother every day in battles to gain votes; for every vote we fought, a house would collapse.]

    [Wow, this one doesn’t count!]

    [In short, let’s open a new section in the forum and create a process so that these newcomers can see how public opinion works!]

    ……

    Church of Dawn Goddess, headquarters.

    The three popes were already ready, but they could not catch Karoso at all.

    They found that as long as this person did not show himself, he seemed impossible to catch.

    The world’s strongest prophet, using the most powerful divination tools, found it very difficult to locate Karoso’s position.

    "This person really is a Card Maker…" The prophet looked at the crystal ball in front of him, sweating, "This is a tool left by the god of fate, yet we can’t even catch a glimpse of him, and Master 『』 is completely hidden too."

    "He has the Thief’s card." Ninth-level Hunter Diefu showed a regrettful expression, "If I had reacted sooner and used the flare, she wouldn’t have died…"

    Losing a ninth-level hunter can be considered a loss for all of humanity.

    Especially for Emperor Paul of Yaleman; if Yaleman weren’t so busy right now, he would want to send the entire army to destroy Canglang Province to avenge that ninth-level hunter.

    "Take your time; there’s still a reaction." The pope quietly watched the crystal ball.

    These people did not yet know how serious things would become after those two newspapers were published.
