Chapter 435: 434, I’m going to show you a Nether Scene_1 later.
Su Yu’s decision to livestream the assault on Spiritual Spring Eye wasn’t impulsive, but premeditated and discussed with Snow Leopard.
Given the unusual circumstances, the video of “Assaulting the Spiritual Spring Eye” would be uploaded online right away for everyone to watch and study.
Since the video was going to be shared immediately, why not show it directly to everyone via live stream?
Moreover, during the live stream he could interact with everyone, answering some detailed questions that Su Yu might have overlooked but some people still didn’t understand.
As for the gory scenes that might appear in the live stream, such as “Skurus being torn to pieces by magic” or “Skurus dying miserable and bloody deaths”, this isn’t peacetime anymore. Everyone has to face these scenes sooner or later, and it is better to have some mental preparation in advance.
That’s why this live stream was created.
…
However, none of the players had expected such an important event to be broadcast live. So, after Su Yu made the announcement, the tens of thousands of players closest to him were left dumbstruck, and the area fell into silence.
Su Yu glanced at his game panel, and there was less than 30 seconds left in the game time.
So, he took out the Dimensional Communication Badge from his backpack and infused it with magic power three times. This was the signal he had agreed upon with Tina, meaning “Meet in the real world”.
After sending the signal, Su Yu exited the game via the game menu, disappearing into thin air.
After Su Yu disappeared, the assembled players reacted as if cold water had been poured into hot oil, and the silence was immediately replaced by a cacophony of voices.
“Oh my God, Boss Ke is actually going to livestream the assault on Spiritual Spring Eye?!” A player named Mick·Arthur exclaimed in surprise and excitement.
His friend, Cortez·Lime, was equally dumbstruck: “I can’t believe they are actually streaming such an event!”
“Since Boss Ke has said so, it must be possible!” Mick·Arthur placed unwavering trust in Boss Ke, who he had always admired.
“When will his live stream start?” a player asked.
“From Boss Ke’s tone, it should be right now? I’m not quite sure.” Cortez·Lime scratched his head.
Mick·Arthur stowed his long sword away in his backpack, saying, “I’ll go check online, see you guys later!”
“I am also logging off, I’ve almost used up my gaming hours today.”
“See you all in the live stream chat!”
The players began to log off one after the other, heading off to watch Su Yu’s live stream.
This news soon spread across the official forums and other platforms, causing quite a sensation.
…
…
In a residential building on the eastern 4th ring of the Imperial Capital, a 25-year old man named Xu Siqi excitedly removed his gaming helmet.
Xu Siqi’s game ID is Mick·Arthur, he had heard Su Yu’s announcement himself.
Xu Siqi is a professional player of “Evolution”.
Over three months ago, he invested all his savings into buying an “Evolution” gaming headset, staking his future on this game.
He didn’t have any outstanding gaming skills, his original plan was just to make a living by playing the game.
But who could have imagined, the world has undergone drastic changes!
Alien invasions, the alien fleets at the Spiritual Spring Eyes, the formation of the United Blue Star Government… these earth-shattering events have been happening one after another!
These might sound a little far-fetched, but in Xu Siqi’s life, the exchange rate for game coins in “Evolution” once soared to 1:387, and his ability to earn game coins could bring him 60-70 spiritual energy coins a day. This means he could earn 25,000 yuan every day!
Xu Siqi sold all his surplus spiritual energy coins to the “Relevant Department” when the prices were at their highest. With the money he made, he purchased a 130-square-meter apartment within the 4th ring of the Imperial Capital, drastically improving his life.
Furthermore, every high-level player, especially those like himself, who are above level 40, are considered as hot commodities, and would be sought after by all sides.
This is why he was now living a dream life he’d never dared to imagine before.
Today, he helped Boss Ke with a task along with his friends from the mercenary group, free of charge.
Who would have thought that after completing the task, Boss Ke would drop a big surprise for them: Boss Ke was going to live stream the assault on Spiritual Spring Eye!
Hearing this, the fatigue from a whole day’s work vanished immediately, and he quickly bid his friends farewell and logged off the game to watch Boss Ke’s live stream.
…
“Assaulting the Spiritual Spring Eye! Man, Boss Ke is so awesome!” Xu Siqi muttered to himself as he comfortably lounged on the sofa.
He picked up his mobile phone from the coffee table and opened the live stream platform.
After entering the platform, he quickly typed “Nemesis” into the search bar, hoping to find Boss Ke’s live stream room.
However, right after he clicked ‘search’, the live streaming app suddenly crashed, followed by a ‘Network Connection Error’ white screen.
Xu Siqi: “…”
Is the app that laggy today? Maybe there are too many people.
He temporarily ignored the live stream platform and opened a chat software, entering the chat group where he most frequently chatted. His friends from the in-game mercenary group were all in this group.
Mick·Arthur: “Is anyone there? Has anyone found Boss Ke’s live stream room?”
Cortez·Lime: “No, my streaming app crashed right away, I can’t even log in.”
Mick·Arthur: “Same here, I also got a ‘Network Connection Error’. Maybe there are too many people logging in.”
Little Boy: “I managed to log in! A pop I follow on the forum shared the link of the live steaming room, you guys can try it! www.gezhe…”
Seeing this message, Xu Siqi perked up, sitting up straight on the sofa and quickly clicking on the link.
His phone automatically opened the live stream app, and the app went black for a moment before a loading circle appeared on the screen indicating it was loading.
Then, the loading circle kept spinning, but the image never loaded.
“What a crappy app!” Just as Xu Siqi was becoming impatient and was about to throw his phone, the loading circle disappeared and the image finally loaded!
“Thank God!” Xu Siqi sighed in relief and looked at the live stream.
But to his surprise, he found he couldn’t see the live stream at all.
The live stream screen was completely filled with rockets, comments, and other fan gifts.
And it seemed like the rich people in the live stream room were competing to see who could give the most expensive gifts. Groups of ‘rockets’, each worth 1,000 yuan, were being sent every few seconds.
This startled Xu Siqi, and he quickly went to the settings to turn off the gift notifications, adjust the density and transparency of the comments. Only then did the live stream calm down a bit and the lagging reduced significantly.
Looking at the live streaming screen.
The footage showed a simple small room, about 50 square meters with one bedroom and one living room, there was no partition between the room and the living room, but all the furnishings looked quite upscale.
The familiar voice of Boss Ke came through in the live stream: “Hello everyone, this is Nemesis. This is where I live, it might be a bit simple…but hang on, I’ll show you all an amazing sight!”
