Noob Player Chapter 10: Be the Good Guy

Shen had played the ga for an hour in-ga ti, aning it was just half an hour passed in real-ti. He had to wait six hours for his appointnt.

He slumped his back on the comfy seat of his gaming pod, thinking what he should do for the six hours.

'Ah, there's a bug about the ga, should I report it? Maybe Sky will reward for reporting the bug,' he was thinking of reporting the bug since he could not exploit it because of so assholes.

'Yeah, let's report it rather than letting the others exploit the bug,' Shen opened Tribe Online's official site and found the email.

He typed the greeting and imdiately went for the main topic. He typed the bug he encountered in the ga, 'Oh, I should attach the screenshot of my status window or they may not believe .'

Sky boasted for the Olympus that the players would never encounter a bug in the ga. Now he found it, they should offer him a reward to close his mouth, "...Right?"

Shen could not help but smile that a worldwide company like Sky would bother him. But if it happened, it would be a fun mont in his life. Of course, the reward was not in his mind, since it was a bug, it bound to be found sooner or later. He might as well be the good guy and reported to Sky.

"Oh, I have to open my character status window," he logged in to the official site and took a screenshot of his window status. After that, he attached the screenshot to the email and sent it.

"What should I do now?" If not for his right knee, he might go working out. He did not want to risk it after yesterday. He limped now, and he would have to use a stick if he forced himself.

"Man, this is boring" he noticed there was a reply from Sky. It was quite fast and he opened the email, "Tsk, it's a bot reply."

Shen turned off the gaming pod and got out.

Sky Headquarter, Chengdu, China

A male employee of the Custor Service of Sky received the email. It was not an inquiry, but a bug report. There was a distinct color when it was a bug report and a normal inquiry email.

Custor Service was one of the busiest departnts in Sky for their first day of launching. They received a lot of emails and calls, asking them a lot of things. From the basic things until the complicated things.

However, the email they received was mostly a threat email, telling Sky to make a big update to add Mage Class or Magic into the ga. It had been a tiring morning for Po Mian.

The inquiry email was yellow and green in color, depending on the topic. And it was red for the bug report. Po Mian for the first ti received the bug report.

"A bug report, are you kidding ? Are you trying to scam a huge company such as Sky?" Po Mian could not help ridicule before he opened the email while shaking his head. He thought the content would be threatening them that the sender had found a bug and asked them for sothing if they did not want Sky's na ruined or sothing because of the bug.

Po Mian read the email, there was no threat inside. It was a genuine bug report, "Minus Level?" He frowned as he uttered in disbelief, "Huh, there is a screenshot attached," Po Mian opened the attached file.

It was Shen's screenshot, Runner character's status window. He quickly scrolled down and found out that the character was Level -10. Po Mian rubbed his eyes, "Is this real? Or is this edited?"

Po Mian could not tell if the screenshot was edited or not. However, he could easily find the truth. Sky could easily check if the character existed and whether it was real or fake.

"Oh my god, if this is real, we will get f*cked up for sure," Sky was now the center of attention of the world. If this bug ca to the public, Sky would be laughing stock. Sky's stock that kept rising would drop for sure.

Po Mian imdiately forwarded the email to the developnt team. He did not want to take the risk of delaying this issue.

Developnt Team

Chang Yun was one of the core mbers of the developnt team of the Sky Branch. He was watching one of the famous pro-player playing the ga until he received an email.

"A bug? No way!" Chang Yun did not believe it. He was soone that was so close to Olympus. He knew how advanced Olympus was, even if there was a bug, Olympus should be able to patch by itself. Unless Olympus took the "bug" as not a bug.

Chang Yun opened the mail and quickly read everything. He had the sa reaction as Po Mian, "Level goes minus?" Chang Yun made a weird expression. He opened the screenshot, he observed the screenshot closely.

"It's not forged" he muttered in a low voice as his heartbeat spiked up. This bug report made him nervous.

Chang Yun used his access to access the player database. He quickly searched for "Runner" from the database and quickly found the data. Runner character existed in Tribe Online. He clicked and opened it. Quickly he found Runner's status window.

His eyes followed down to the level part he discovered it was level -10. He could not believe what he saw. He closed the data and opened it again, making sure he was not seeing things. It was still the sa.

Chang Yun did not want to believe the ga had a bug. He closed the access and searched "Runner" again. He kept checking the email and the data, making sure he was not wrongly opening another character status window. It was still the sa.

Chang Yun kept repeating, and he even tried to use another computer. After fifteen minutes of silly reactions, he slumped back on his seat weakly. He accepted that there was a bug in Tribe Online.

He forked out his orange and called his superior, Director Guan.

"Sir, we found a bug"
