The frog person, pinned to the ground, was questioning their life choices.
They never imagined that one day, they would be pinned down on the cold concrete by a cosplay-loving, two-dimensional moe girl.
However, they were quickly drawn back to reality by a series of painful "Ah, ah, ah!" cries.
Looking past the female officer cosplaying as Vivian, they saw the plight of another frog—
He had only had his headgear kicked off, but that frog, because he struggled too violently, even had his arms and legs torn off and tossed aside by the security guards, revealing the clothes he was originally wearing underneath.
Looking in other directions.
Several people trying to escape were overtaken by the "security guards" at astonishing speeds.
Two of them even clenched their fists to fight back.
The "security guards" didn't hold back at all, wielding batons in their hands, so fast they almost left afterimages!
The sounds of "bang, bang, bang" and miserable "Ah, ah, ah!" screams rose and fell in succession.
He instantly abandoned the thought of struggling, obediently collapsing on the ground, unmoving.
Those tough guys who took the baton blows were beaten until they collapsed on the ground, hugging their heads and curling into a ball.
Only then were the batons replaced with handcuffs.
Afterward, Xu Lu put the headgear back on and said, "Bring a few more people! There are still a few suspicious ones; I've put stickers on their backs."
"Look carefully! It's the stickers with the Harmony head, don't get it wrong."
"Be gentler this time, please invite them over for a detailed questioning."
"Also, quickly analyze the recordings and screen out anyone who had contact and communication with these people for questioning."
"Yes!"
"Understood!"
The "security guards" present quickly took action.
As they moved, they couldn't help but smile—
When had they ever caught spies so easily?
This was practically free merit, delivered right to their doorstep!
The atmosphere here was very lively; no one even noticed what happened around the corner a few dozen meters away.
The security team's movements were too fast; by the time Xu Lu, wearing the frog suit again, stood in the crowd, the frogs here had just finished greeting and chatting with Xu Meng and were getting down to business—
"Boss Xu! How exactly do we undo this [Frog Prince Curse]?"
Xu Meng looked at this comical bunch of frogs at the entrance and said with a smile, "Do you really have to turn back? Isn't it nice like this now? So cute."
The players clamored, stating their reasons:
"It's not bad, but you left a note saying something about [True Love's Kiss], everyone is very curious!"
"That's right, that's right, many people are losing it!"
"My virtual wife and I aren't true love, it's too hurtful!"
"I even specially dressed Copper Sparrow in a wedding dress! That still doesn't work; you have to give me an explanation!"
… …
"Alright."
Xu Meng nodded, "Actually, doing this event was just to make everyone happy, so the first day was set up so the curse couldn't be lifted."
"Only at 12 noon today will the opportunity to lift the curse appear."
"Riddler, get out! Everyone knows that!"
Frogs on the scene immediately protested.
And quickly received the approval of more companions: "Stop beating around the bush, Boss Xu!"
"Give us some useful information!"
"That's right, what opportunity or not, we don't understand!"
… …
The frogs covered their ears with their webbed hands, shaking their heads to indicate they didn't understand.
Xu Meng didn't like spoilers and was still unwilling to reveal the answer directly.
But he gave another piece of information:
"It's only three hours away, be patient!"
"How about this, I'll tell you another new piece of information."
"Last night, I was browsing DreamNet and saw many of your ideas about 'lifting the curse.' I think your ideas are also very great! So—"
"I'm planning to go to work at the company now and turn everyone's fun ideas into reality!"
This news was a bit shocking.
Not to mention the players on the scene, even Xu Lu in the frog crowd turned her head in surprise to look at Xu Meng.
Three hours, to temporarily add a mechanism to the game??
Are you serious?
Xu Meng was, of course, serious, and eager to execute it.
While the players were exclaiming, he continued, "So now time is very tight, I have to get to work quickly."
"The weather is pretty good today, I hope you have fun."
After saying that, he planned to return to the company.
But just then, a voice came from behind: "Boss Xu! Will Dream Foundry release merchandise for this frog mascot costume?"
Xu Meng looked over in confusion: "Don't you already have them? What merchandise do you still need?"
"Uh…"
The purple-haired administrator who distributed the costumes was a little embarrassed, "Isn't this… an unauthorized knock-off outfit?"
"What knock-off or not."
Xu Meng shook his head, "I'll have someone issue an announcement later, making the copyright for this design public; anyone interested can make and wear it as they please."
"Can it be used commercially too?"
The cool purple-haired sister asked on behalf of a small factory owner she knew.
"As long as the pricing is reasonable and you don't fleece people."
Xu Meng left these words, waved goodbye to everyone, and returned to the company.
The long-awaited Xu Lu and the security team immediately took action!
The players, who were about to start a lively chat, looked on in confusion as the security guards rushed into the crowd, grabbed some frogs and passersby, and took them away for questioning.
The local players, who were originally excited about meeting and interacting with Xu Meng, suddenly panicked a bit.
They stood there, not even daring to leave.
It was only after the security team's reassurance that they quickly dispersed.
—Then they regrouped at the south gate of Jinghu Park, guessing what was going on while waiting for the questioned group members to return.
… …
… …
They didn't wait long; 15 minutes later, four group members returned to the meeting point.
Faced with the concern of the group members, the four group members were more grief-stricken than the last:
"Oh dear! You don't know what just happened!"
"I'm so regretful! I lost 500,000!"
"500,000 just brushed past me like that! I even talked to him and patted him on the shoulder! Why didn't I just grab him and report him directly!"
"Heartbroken to the point of being unable to breathe!"
… …
"500,000?"
The group leader was stunned, "A spy?!?!"
The group members were also shocked: "Holy crap! We walked with a spy the whole way??"
“What the hell! A spy? Crap!”
“Are they using us as cover??? ”
“Group owner, it's time for a major purge!”
The group members and administrators exchanged glances, all realizing the danger.
“Let's discuss this later. For now, let's disband. If you like the suit, keep it. If you don't, you can take it off and put it back in the car.”
Originally, everyone liked them a lot.
But at the thought that this matter was mixed up with spies, everyone didn't even want the clothes anymore, and one by one, they quickly took off the frog suits and left.
In the end, only two people kept the suits.
At the same time as the group members disbanded, a video of Xu Meng talking with a group of frog people at the company entrance quickly spread to social networks.
Everyone laughed while watching the frog people invading reality, while also discussing the method of lifting the curse that Xu Meng mentioned.
There were even industry insiders giving everyone a science lesson:
How outrageous it is that Xu Meng wants to add more than one new method of lifting the curse within 3 hours.
In the comment section of that science lesson post, everyone complained about how outrageous this matter was, but no one said that Xu Meng couldn't do it.
— This is the [Digital Emperor]!
The most up-to-date novels are first published on Liu 9 Shu Ba!!
Anything outrageous is reasonable when it comes to him!

12:00 noon, Mansheng Metropolis, Silver City, 《Monster Hunter》, 《Lord of War》, 《Frost Snow Project》 are all updated online.
On the central square where a large number of frog people gathered.
A dazzling starlight descended from the sky, landing on the outdoor canopy of an open-air cafe.
The dense green frog people on the central square simultaneously turned their heads to look there.
“Is the princess about to descend?”
“Such a big fanfare?!”
“So, is my true love here?”
“Yay! Another virtual wife!”
… …
Everyone was super excited.
Amidst everyone's anticipation, the brightness of the starlight continuously weakened, gradually revealing the true appearance of that creation.
It turned out to be—
A golden, shimmering [Magic Frog] with beautiful starlight floating around it!
The entire central square was silent for three seconds the moment they saw it clearly.
After that, someone complained in a very loud voice:
“No way! Are you kidding me?? ”
“Where's my princess?? How is it a frog?? ”
“Don't tell me, we really have to kiss a frog to lift the curse?!”
“I don't believe it!!”
… …
Everyone couldn't quite accept this reality.
But as the first person rushed up to grab this glowing [Magic Frog], the crowd immediately became agitated and rushed towards this magic frog!
The crowd was too dense, causing some unlucky frog people to be pushed to the ground and trampled over by a large number of frog people.
Struggling desperately, unable to stand up.
A terrible stampede occurred in the central square.
But no one cared.
Everyone was only concerned with grabbing this magic frog!
The closest player reached the bottom of the canopy in the blink of an eye, leaping towards the magic frog.
Just as he was about to grab it, the magic frog suddenly leaped away, jumping from between his webbed fingers.
When it landed, it happened to land on this frog's head.
The surrounding frogs unhesitatingly pounced on his head.
The magic frog repeated its trick, jumping away again.
The first frog was knocked to the ground by the crowd.
The magic frog jumped back and forth on the heads of a group of frogs, while the players pushed and shoved each other, trying to catch it, and soon fell to the ground.
Cursing in their mouths, their eyes full of trailing star effects.
But they couldn't see where the magic frog was at all.
The entire central square was quickly thrown into chaos.
Until a certain moment, the magic frog accidentally jumped into a frog's open mouth while dodging.
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, a large cloud of smoke suddenly burst open in the crowd.
When the smoke cleared, that frog had already turned back into a normal player.
But his condition was not very good - covering his throat, looking like he was constantly gagging, seemingly disgusted.
The players around him, who were fighting for it, were also stunned for a moment:
“So, we really have to kiss the magic frog to lift the curse?”
“Dude, isn't the curse of the Frog Prince supposed to be lifted by a princess kissing the frog? Why has it turned into the frog kissing us now?? ”
“If a prince can turn into a frog, why can't a princess?!”
“Now that the curse has been lifted, where is the princess?? ”
“You're asking me, who am I supposed to ask?”
“Dude, are you guys really going to kiss a frog?? ”
“It's just a game, anyway, I can't feel anything, I'll just close my eyes and kiss! Kiss hard! Kiss like crazy!”
“Don't you think frog skin is very tender, very smooth, and looks very sexy?”
“? ? ? ”
“Damn it! Bro, your fetish is weird enough!”
… …
On the central square, after a brief moment of doubting their lives, a large group of players once again began to compete for and capture the magic frog.
But many people also realized: the competition here is too fierce.
Instead, they tried other methods.
Didn't Xu Meng say that the methods of lifting the curse that players come up with will also be made?
Then why not give it a try?
Zhang Siming familiarly came to [Neon Abyss] to continue looking for the KTV princess.
Upon asking the front desk, the store really had a new "princess"!
Zhang Siming was overjoyed: “I want her! I want the princess!”
He entered the singing room under the guidance of the waiter, playing with his webbed fingers in the dim light, quietly waiting for the princess to appear.
A minute later, the door of the room was gently pushed open.
Zhang Siming immediately turned his head to look over, his face full of anticipation.
— As everyone knows, designing sexy girls has always been Zhùmèng's forte, even its core productivity!
Now, even Boss Xu is personally taking action!
Is there any need to doubt Boss Xu's aesthetic sense?!
Under Zhang Siming's eager gaze, a red and white female frog person covered her face with her webbed hand—although she couldn't completely cover it, she shyly walked into the room and looked at the green and white Zhang Siming.
Zhang Siming's expectant expression instantly froze on his face.
Leaving only a head full of question marks.
