Public opinion reversal and flowers blooming
Alyssa returned to the Garden Palace, and the first thing she did was to ask Miranda to help her find a vase.
"Your Highness, are you... unhappy?" Miranda approached, carrying an exquisitely crafted crystal vase. She could smell the slightly bitter pheromones of the Worm Mother and felt a surge of worry. She had also seen the rumors circulating online and couldn't help but create a fake account to speak up for Her Highness. However, her well-reasoned and coherent rebuttal was quickly lost in the flurry of emotions swirling among the millions of online nerds.
It could be said that the insect workers in the entire Garden Palace who had learned of this incident were somewhat distracted from their work today. They longed for a leader to direct them and tell them how to help Her Majesty Alyssa. However, Lord Gabriel, the one who was most suitable to be the leader, had locked himself in his office the entire afternoon.
Why hasn't Lord Gabriel taken any action? Should he use his official account to refute the rumors, or perhaps demand that StarNet Group delete the post? Isn't StarNet Group part of Seville's family business? Why is Seville gone too?
Although Her Majesty Alyssa's pheromones had changed somewhat, her eyes sparkled, her face flushed, and she was filled with the joy and happiness of a young girl. She didn't look depressed at all. She was a little puzzled by Miranda's question: "Why do you ask? I'm not unhappy."
Ryan pointed at the lily in Her Majesty Alyssa's arms with a sour face: "Hmph!" (It's the smell of this thing! It was given by Seville!)
Miranda helped Alyssa insert the lily. Sure enough, after Her Majesty Alyssa put the lily down, the pheromone smell on her body returned to normal. Miranda muttered and complained, "Severus, what's the smell of the lily I gave you?"
“Sister Miranda, don’t talk about him.” Alyssa couldn’t bear to hear anyone say anything bad about Seville at this time. “It’s just a little smell. It doesn’t affect anything.”
Miranda: “…”
Why do I feel so sad that my daughter has become so disobedient before she even grows up?
"By the way, where's Mammy?" Alyssa put down the flowers and noticed that Gabriel, who usually came to greet her, was not there.
Gabriel was afraid that Her Majesty Alyssa would sense her emotions when she hugged her, so he found an excuse of being busy with government affairs and hid himself.
She locked herself in the office, her eyes fixed on the smart brain projection screen. On it, posts about Her Majesty Alyssa in the Star Network Free Community were popping up like mushrooms after rain.
"Groups one through five, the main point of your posts is to emphasize that Her Majesty Alyssa hasn't yet reached her second pupal stage and isn't considered an adult. The previous ten Her Majesties were all first publicly unveiled at their coronation ceremonies. It's standard practice for the Palace of Saint Joseph to withhold information about Her Majesty."
"Groups six to ten, you are responsible for describing Her Majesty Alyssa's interactions with the cubs in a student's tone. You may send a photo of Her Majesty, but it must be a frontal shot, highlighting the size difference between Her Majesty and the cubs. You should also explain that Her Majesty is still learning Zerg common sense and culture and has not yet been involved in government affairs."
"Groups 11 to 15 will be responsible for presenting Her Majesty Alyssa's campus life from a student's perspective, from the morning and evening fountain receptions to the auditorium music class where Her Majesty uses her spiritual power to soothe the entire Zerg. This will be accompanied by a high-definition image of Her Majesty Alyssa's golden compound eyes. Emphasize Her Majesty Alyssa's Zerg Queen attributes through vision, smell, and spiritual perception!"
"Groups 16 and 17, split half into ordinary, uninformed webworms. Zoom in on the silver scar on Guard Ryan's carapace and head in the original post's photo and ask what it is. The other half, disguise them as worker bugs from the Pompeii or Saint Hobelius Palace. Explain that Her Majesty Alyssa used her mental power to sew him together, saving this bug from deterioration."
The fans club members who had been quietly listening to Seville's instructions could no longer remain calm after hearing this.
"What? Captain Ryan's Royal Guards almost degraded? Her Majesty Elisa saved him?"
"That's how he got those strange silver scars on his back and head!"
"Her Majesty Alyssa is amazing!"
Sewell smiled faintly, as if he were being praised. "Yes. I have been with Your Majesty since she was rescued, and I have witnessed your astonishing growth firsthand. The first time Your Majesty used her mental power, she was able to save the Captain of the Guards, Ryan, who was on the verge of deterioration. There are many other deeds of Your Majesty Alyssa that are confidential and cannot be disclosed. But I can tell you clearly that Your Majesty is by no means as weak as she appears."
The insects' eyes were burning with passion, and they felt more and more that it was the right decision to firmly protect such a gentle and powerful insect mother.
"The Palace of Saint Joseph couldn't get involved in a fight with the already agitated netizens. We originally just wanted to keep the underage His Majesty low-key, but we didn't expect to be blamed for such a big thing by those cunning idiots," said Sewell. "But we don't need to, do we? Most of us are still students. We don't need to be bound by social etiquette and respectability. We can make mistakes!"
All the insects responded in unison, and their intelligent brain flew up. Seville's action plans were broken down into specific tasks by the fans' club members, and sent to the group for each member to claim.
The remaining groups were eagerly awaiting their assignments when they heard Sewell say, "Groups 18 and 19, the tasks will be more difficult. You will need to create smurf accounts and use them in the threads created by the first 17 groups to troll, insult, and refute the content of the posts."
The insects: “……?”
"Why? We...we don't want to stand against Her Majesty Alyssa!"
"This is the difficult part of the mission. The more you argue, the more heated it gets. You have to act like blind vagrants who disregard facts and are only venting their emotions, like a bunch of brain-dead lunatics and fools. That way, even if there are bugs who disagree with the views in this building, they will be ashamed to associate with you."
The bug in charge of the fan club for Groups 18 and 19 opened his eyes wide: "Holy crap! This is even possible! This kid has as many schemes as a honeycomb! Sure enough, the bug queen doesn't keep idle bugs around her!"
Seville raised his hand and patted the shoulders of the two groups of fan club leaders. "You are not standing in opposition to Her Majesty Alyssa, but for Her Majesty, you endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens! Your work is a vital part of our successful public opinion war!"
The person in charge of the insect compound had tears in his eyes, clenched his fist firmly, and sent Seville's words to the group exactly as they were.
"For the final group, your mission is to question the rhetoric-mongering behavior of groups 18 and 19, spreading various conspiracy theories. For example, why did Her Majesty Alyssa's rescue mission take three years to complete? Why was she smeared upon her return? Who secretly took and released the photos?... Feel free to express your ideas freely. The more outrageous, the better."
Seville's expression was gloomy in the dimly lit conference room, illuminated only by the projection screen of the intelligent computer. However, no one could ignore the fighting spirit burning in his lavender eyes. "I'll tell my father and eldest brother to fully promote our post. I want those sewer rats to never dare to say anything about Her Majesty Alyssa's human appearance after this battle!"
With the involvement of over 30,000 clearly organized student armies and the support of StarNet Group, the effect was simply overwhelming.
However, after more than three months, those accounts on the Starnet Free Community that questioned Her Majesty Alyssa were criticized to the point of shutting down their microphones, deleting their accounts, and running away.
The insects stood on the Star Network battlefield where the smoke was gradually clearing, drew their swords and looked around, only to find that there were no opponents left. They felt a sudden sense of emptiness:
What's going on? Where's my opponent? I just killed a chicken with my Dragon Slaying Sword, how come there's no opponent?
Sean was convinced by Sewell and asked Sewell, "What should we do next?"
Seville didn't intend to pursue the mastermind on Starnet relentlessly. The cause of this incident needed to be investigated, but that needed to be done at the Palace of Saint Joseph, under the supervision of Lord Gabriel. Therefore, Seville said, "We can call it a day now. Thank you all very much for today. You can now move freely."
What? Free movement? How can I retract my unsheathed sword so easily?
The students who had won a great victory in their first group activity were still not satisfied on the off-campus star network. Now that they were no longer fighting and could publish Her Majesty Alyssa's private photos, they had to -
Licking Yan!
The students posted photos and videos of Her Majesty Alyssa from various angles that they had secretly taken on campus, accompanied by all kinds of flattery, all over the Star Network.
For a moment, the Star Network forum was filled with the charming smile of Alyssa. She waved warmly to the students, she coaxed the cubs tenderly, she shared her own food with the cubs, she ran with all her might in gym class, she clenched her fists nervously to cheer on her classmates, she couldn't take notes using her AI and needed the cubs to teach her, she played an instrument with her eyes shining brightly...
Sewell: ...When were these photos and videos taken?
But overall, the students' discussions were very positive, and the lively atmosphere also encouraged those netizens who were unfamiliar with Her Majesty Alyssa to engage. If there were any further discordant remarks, I believe the students would be able to handle them.
Seville breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the meeting room.
Gabriel also closed the Starnet Freedom Community page he had been looking at all day.
That’s great…it’s really great.
Gabrielle's nerves, strained all day, finally relaxed. She bent down deeply, burying her face in her hands. After a while, she felt her pheromones stabilize, and she stood up and went to Alyssa's room.
In the huge bedroom, Alyssa was already fast asleep, hugging a pineapple. Her body seemed to gradually realize the nutrients it was lacking. Now Alyssa not only had a much better appetite, but also slept a lot more.
Gabriel gently pushed aside the long hair on Alyssa's forehead, revealing her peaceful, timeless face.
She remembered the encrypted communication that Seville had sent her tonight when the StarNet war was in full swing.
"Master Gabriel, based on Her Majesty Alyssa's accessories and socks in the candid photos, the fan club deduced the exact date the photos were taken. The student council checked the shift roster, and it seems the stink bug students were on duty when the photos were taken."
stink bug family...
Gabriel helped Alyssa smooth her hair with a blank expression.
Your Majesty Alyssa, I am sorry that I cannot provide you with a stable Zerg environment. You have such restless little rats around you.
I was careless.
You still have me.
...and Seville.
Thinking of Seville, Gabriel's expression finally relaxed a little.
This wave of public opinion counterattack is really beautiful.
Perhaps she should give Seville more trust.
Early the next morning, Seville arrived at the Garden Palace on time, waiting for Her Majesty Alyssa to be ready, and then they took the airship to go to school together.
His eyes met Gabriel's, and Gabriel, rarely, nodded to him as a friendly greeting.
Seville returned Gabriel's greeting, and then Her Majesty Elisa flew out like a swift bird.
"Sevier! The flowers you gave me are in bloom, come and see!"
Sewell followed the overjoyed Worm Mother through the long corridor and into the living room. On the small table in front of the crystal-clear French window, an exquisite crystal vase held the lilies he had given to Her Majesty Alyssa yesterday.
At this time, the lily buds have opened wide, with plump white petals stretched out, dotted with tender yellow stamens.
The insect queen standing before the flower no longer looked as frail and frail as she had been when she was first rescued. Her back was straight, her body relaxed, and she was as beautiful and blossoming as the lily before her.
Sewell also smiled, a very bright smile.
"Yes, Her Majesty Alyssa."
“The flowers are blooming.”
