Fantasy Westward Journey: Return to 2005

Chapter 1944 Privacy Mode? A Substitute Streamer Arrives!

“It’s really not that good.”

Ah Bai had already vented all his frustrations, so Fang Yun could only shrug and say something.

To be honest, after seeing the results of this transformation...

His emotions didn't actually fluctuate much.

Don't you see those big shots from the past who would transform dozens or even hundreds of times, and still often couldn't get the attributes they wanted no matter what they tried?

My 64 transformations seem exaggerated at first glance, but in my previous life they were just basic stuff.

of course.

The so-called different times and different circumstances.

In his previous life, his 64 transformations were nothing special.

But it can be applied to this era.

The sheer number of transformations isn't just amazing, it's downright terrifying!

Of course, he also tried to transform into other forms quite a few times.

But the fact that he's still relentlessly working on his original body even today only shows that he's never gotten the attributes he wants.

Sighed.

Looking at the sword essence body on the screen with attributes completely off-target.

Fang Yun stroked his chin, pondering whether to change his transformation or continue to stubbornly attempt the 65th transformation.

Just as he was deep in thought, he suddenly heard a series of hurried footsteps behind him—

"Lord Cheng! Lord Cheng! We need your help urgently, Lord Cheng!"

As the shouts of Beast Master grew louder as they approached, Fang Yun, who was deep in thought, looked up and saw Beast Master, covered in sweat, running up to him and grabbing his shoulder, pleading.

"What's going on with you?"

With his shoulders gripped tightly by Beast Master, Fang Yun frowned and asked.

Upon hearing this, Beast grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the table and took a big gulp before explaining with a wry smile, "What else could it be? It's just that live stream thing. I'm about to be bombarded with insults from the chat!"

"Xisuo."

He learned that this guy had rushed over to him in such a hurry because something had happened during his live stream.

Fang Yun raised an eyebrow, signaling him to speak slowly.

Now, Yunxiao Club's live streaming business is gradually getting on track.

The entire Cloud Club, from shareholders like Beast Master Huang He to commanders like A-Bai Pineapple, and core veteran employees like the Chen Fan brothers, is comprised of all its members.

Most of them have started their own live streaming rooms under the authorization of Sujiu.

Although the popularity of these people varies, for example, Beast Master has been the number one streamer in the Fantasy Westward Journey section for many years, while Chen Fan and others with poor program effects still have little popularity.

But Fang Yun didn't care about that; he only cared about the scale.

The live streaming market is huge.

He certainly couldn't finish all the food himself, so he could only try to expand his territory as much as possible so that he and his employees could eat their fill.

But at the same time.

As more and more players flock to the world of Fantasy Westward Journey live streaming.

Nowadays, viewers are gradually developing their own expectations for the entertainment value of various livestreamers' programs.

Even now, Beast Master seems to remain a top streamer in the Fantasy Westward Journey section.

But since the beginning of 2012.

The atmosphere in his live stream gradually became chaotic.

The reason for this is...

First, his live streaming time is not fixed; when he's in the mood, he can stream for several or even more than ten hours at a time.

But if he's in a bad mood, he'll just stand them up, which makes many fans complain.

Fang Yun couldn't really say anything about Beast Master, since as a rich second-generation heir, he didn't need to rely on this thing to make a living. The reason he's still insisting on live streaming is purely out of personal interest.

Even so, Fang Yun reminded him to cherish his fans and also to pay attention to maintaining the reputation of the Yunxiao Guild.

As for the second reason, which is also the most important one.

The root of the problem actually lies with Fang Yun.

Although the scene of Fang Yun barging into Beast Master's live stream before the Lunar New Year was quite accidental.

But the fact that clips from that live stream still occasionally leak out shows this.

Fang Yun's influence in the Fantasy World is truly astonishing!

And Beast Lord suffered greatly as a result.

Since Fang Yun announced the All-Star event through his live stream and interacted with his fans.

The composition of the fans in Beast Master's live stream became completely chaotic.

Before Fang Yun appeared, most of the fans in Beast Master's live stream were personal fans and entertainment fans.

This can happen after Fang Yun appears once.

Beast's fan base tripled, making him the undisputed leader among all Fantasy Westward Journey streamers!

But Beast Lord felt no excitement whatsoever, only endless regret!

the reason is simple.

All these extra fans came because of Qiancheng.

Even though he patiently explained every time he went live, Qiancheng still has no intention of going live for the time being.

However, every time he goes live, a large number of viewers still ask about Qiancheng's situation and strongly request that he invite Qiancheng to come and go live.

Say something.

It's actually quite annoying to see people spamming "Thousand Cities" in Beast Master's live stream every day.

It's just that Beast Master and Fang Yun have a very close relationship, and he himself is carefree and doesn't care much.

Otherwise, if it were someone else, they would probably have been driven crazy long ago.

Even though I don't really care.

But as time went on, even Beast Master was starting to struggle.

Especially today.

Everyone in the club knew that Beast and Fang Yun had made a bet on who would get the first level 160 weapon, and the stakes were incredibly high.

So Beast Master kept spamming "Yuan Shen" during his live stream, but unfortunately the effect wasn't very ideal.

This gave a lot of room for trolls to vent.

These trolls are not all fans of Qiancheng; more of them are fans of other teams that were defeated by Beast in the Martial God Altar, as well as some viewers who were criticized by Beast.

Previously, these people would be instantly killed as soon as they showed their faces in the face of Beast Master's massive fan base.

However, the atmosphere in Beast's live stream room became increasingly chaotic after the New Year.

They were finally able to be resurrected and seized the opportunity to unleash a torrent of abuse!

In addition, Qiancheng's fans would occasionally ask about her whereabouts in the live stream.

As a result, after an hour of live streaming, although the popularity was quite high, Beast Master himself was exhausted and could barely muster the energy to even transform his avatar.

"understood."

As Beast Master explained the whole story with a bitter face.

Fang Yun couldn't help but sigh, and patted Beast Master's shoulder with some heartache.

To put it bluntly, this whole thing was an undeserved disaster for Beast Master.

Even when he accidentally entered Beast Master's live stream, it was he who spoke first and was noticed by the audience.

As a result, so much time has passed.

He himself has never planned to start broadcasting, and his life has been going smoothly.

But Beast Master suffered a lot. A top streamer of Fantasy Westward Journey, he was forced to seek help from his fans and viewers who were a mixed bag in his live stream.

"Alright, I'll go up there with you."

After a moment's thought, Fang Yun stood up and beckoned to Beast Master to come with him.

"What...what do you mean?"

Upon hearing his words, Beast Master, who had originally only wanted to complain and ask Fang Yun to try to think of a solution, paused for a moment and asked.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yun spread his hands and explained as he walked up to the second floor, "Didn't you say the live stream room had a somewhat complicated background? Perfect, I like dealing with complicated situations, I'll go meet him now!"

"Brother Cheng, do you mean... you should broadcast today's live stream for Master Beast?"

Hear his explanation.

Ah Bai, who had already automatically caught up with the two, lit up and quickly asked.

"Not only that, but it can't go on like this with Beast Master's live stream. This time, I have to help him resolve all his worries directly!"

Shaking his head, Fang Yun quickly went up to the second floor and sat down in front of Beast Master's live streaming computer.

"Then you'd better keep your word, Boss Cheng. We're counting on you!"

Fang Yun sat down in front of his live-streaming computer without hesitation.

At this moment, Master Beast was so moved that he had tears in his eyes, even though in reality, his current situation was entirely thanks to Fang Yun.

I gave him an OK sign.

Fang Yun decisively put on his headphones, but instead of turning on his microphone, he checked the live stream chat first.

"What about people?"

"Why is Beast Lord AFK and not moving?"

"The streamer went to the restroom and said he'll be back in a bit!"

"Is this going to the toilet? It looks like they fell into the toilet! It's been almost 20 minutes!"

"Actually, even if I come back, there's not much to see. I've been constantly transforming my physical form, and the transformations aren't even that great. It's a complete waste of time!"

"Upstairs, you're so awesome, can you let the brothers see your true form?"

"Heh, you need to know how to make refrigerators to evaluate how they cool down, right?"

"It's been N days since I last saw Brother Cheng. When will he come back to this live stream again...?"

"Don't even think about it. Beast Master has said more than once that Brother Cheng has no plans to start streaming. Asking again is pointless!"

Looking at the live stream with its consistently high viewership, the content of the chat is quite diverse.

Fang Yun shook his head, knowing that, just as Beast Master had said, the atmosphere in the live stream room had completely fallen apart.

I thought about it.

He first moved the character on the screen slightly, and was about to turn on his microphone when a familiar notification sound suddenly came to his mind—

"Ding—An abnormal environment has been detected in the host. Would you like to enable privacy mode?"

I heard that familiar yet unfamiliar system notification in my mind.

Fang Yun, who was about to turn on the microphone to communicate, was stunned on the spot!

Abnormal environment? Privacy mode?

What the hell is all of this?!

Unfortunately, his system was an artificial idiot, and after giving the prompts, it went back into a state of pretending to be dead.

He frowned and pondered for a few seconds.

Fang Yun, who was used to figuring things out on his own, suddenly had a thought. Then, in front of thousands of viewers in the live stream, he controlled the character of Beast Lord to quickly run to the post station, clicked on a stall, and instantly bought a high-level powerful book!

"Ding—Congratulations, host, you have triggered the [Consumption Rebate]! 840 million game coins will be fully refunded to your game account. Please check your account."

"Ding—An abnormal environment has been detected. The rebate has been hidden in the designated account. Please exit the abnormal environment to view it."

With this high-end, powerful book in hand.

When I heard two system notifications coming in succession in my mind.

Fang Yun's eyes immediately lit up!

This so-called unusual environment likely refers to a live broadcast, or a public setting.

Privacy mode allows him to hide all system-related anomalies in public, and only reveal them after the abnormal environment ends, making it completely undetectable!

One of the reasons he had been reluctant to go live was that he was worried that his presence would be exposed when he did.

Although the system gave him the function of specifying a cashback account when he upgraded his cashback skill to the advanced level.

However, the cashback amount for this feature is credited to your account in real time, and there is no guarantee that it will be completely foolproof.

But this suddenly triggered privacy mode is different.

It's completely hidden; no one can see the slightest trick!

"Wow, they've even come up with a streamer mode, huh?"

Indeed, after realizing the power of the privacy mode, Fang Yun immediately designated it as a mode exclusively for live streamers.

And at the same time.

The sudden appearance of privacy mode made him sigh again.

My own all-powerful auxiliary system is just too awesome.

He is clearly an 'all-rounder', but he has to discover most of his functions himself.

Take this privacy mode, for example.

If it weren't for Master Beast asking him to save the day, he wouldn't have been able to get things done.

He probably wouldn't have known for many years that his system had such a powerful function.

While he was silently complaining about the system's ruthlessness in his mind...

The viewers in the live stream were immediately drawn to the sight of the Beast Master character coming to life.

"It's moving! The streamer is back?"

"Turn on your mic, or you're just pretending to be an expert by not saying anything, huh?"

"What do you mean? You suddenly bought a high-level skill book. Are you planning to use it on your pet?"

"Please, streamer, stop using the illusions. If you're really out of things to do, just go kill people. I love watching that!"

"Kill who? Kill you? You speak without thinking!"

"It doesn't necessarily have to be a PvP kill, a tournament would be fine too!"

"Didn't you get enough of the nationwide challenge during the Lunar New Year? Another PvP battle? That's boring!"

"Day N+1 of missing Brother Cheng..."

As the character of Beast Master started moving, the comments in the live stream chat scrolled rapidly.

Seeing this, Fang Yun put aside his chaotic thoughts, casually turned on the microphone, cleared his throat, and said, "Hello everyone, I'm Qiancheng, the substitute streamer! Beast Master suddenly had an upset stomach and can't come back for the time being, so I'll be temporarily filling in for him!"

He turned on the microphone and openly revealed his identity.

The live stream chat, which was scrolling non-stop just a second ago, suddenly froze for half a second, and then was instantly flooded with a barrage of question marks!

"???"

"???"

"???"

Looking at the screen full of question marks.

Fang Yun frowned, thinking that the live stream's bullet screen system was broken.

Fortunately, these question mark comments were quickly overshadowed by even more intense exclamations of amazement!

"Holy crap, who did he say he was again?!"

"Qiancheng? Really? What proof do you have that you're Qiancheng?!"

"We need evidence of Gouba! You can't even recognize Cheng Ge's voice, how can you watch Gouba's live stream!"

"No way... where the hell did this come from? Even Brother Cheng is doing live streaming?"

"Beast Master had an upset stomach, so he asked Brother Cheng to fill in for him on the live stream. My goodness, Beast Master's influence is incredible. Even the only true god of Fantasy Westward Journey has to work for him under the table, right?"

"Brother Cheng, I've missed you so much! You've finally come to the live stream!"

"I still don't quite believe it. Why would Qiancheng come to do a live stream? He's not short of money or girls. Why would he choose to suffer like this instead of enjoying his life?"

"What are you saying? Does Beast Master lack money? Yet he's still the popular streamer Nanbowan?"

"Shut the hell up and listen to Brother Cheng!"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's already a pleasant surprise that Brother Cheng can fill in. Everyone, stop talking nonsense and let's see what Brother Cheng plans to broadcast next!..."

The viewers in the live stream, finally recovering from their initial shock, were now in a frenzy. (End of Chapter)
