Chapter 36 Thank you XunTeng! [Please continue reading]
The exquisite dragon soul battle scene left Teacher Ma speechless. He was completely immersed in the plot and the fight, and his mind was no longer on the live broadcast.
He turned to look at Teacher Piao beside him and couldn't help but whisper, "Old Piao, do you think this assassin could be Ling Lie, who died back then? Did he deliberately hide his identity to come back and seek revenge on his brother?"
Teacher Piao stared intently at the screen, smacking his lips incessantly, completely absorbed in the experience. He casually remarked, "You know what, it's actually quite possible."
He then slapped his thigh, his eyes brimming with excitement: "Damn! This assassin's aura is so cool! When I try him out in the game, I'm definitely choosing him!"
Eggplant was also watching with great interest and started analyzing: "Actually, Ling Yu is probably quite fun too. Just by watching this CG, you can roughly guess his skills. He has X-ray vision, rapid fire, and an ultimate move that can summon two dragons."
"Archers have always been overpowered!"
Yang Yi, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth as he listened to the three of them making serious guesses.
The actual gameplay is right in front of you, and the character skills are clearly displayed. What's the point of speculating and imagining things here?
Why not just go into the game and see for yourself?
How did these three become top anchors?
The video is still playing.
"Only those with the bloodline of the Ling family can tame a divine dragon..." Ling Yu's voice tightened, each word uttered with difficulty, "Who... exactly are you?"
The assassin sheathed his blade and subdued his stance. The green dragon phantom slowly dissipated as he approached Ling Yu step by step, each step as steady as a rock, directly striking into Ling Yu's tense mind.
"Hurry up and kill me." Ling Yu closed his eyes, his voice carrying a hint of weary relief. After years of torment from sin, he was no longer afraid of death.
"No, I won't let you die so easily." Ling Lie stopped and looked at his brother, who had been tormented by guilt for half his life. His voice was soft but carried immense weight. "Your mission is not yet complete... Brother."
At this moment, the comments section erupted in a frenzy—
"Oh my god, Teacher Ma has become wise!"
"Jinlun actually guessed it!"
"That's alright, I can basically guess it all, okay!"
"Netizens are netizens, and Teacher Ma is Teacher Ma. No matter how awesome the netizens are, it can't change the fact that Teacher Ma is an idiot!"
"Less comments, don't keep me from watching the video!"
"Why don't you watch the official videos if you don't like watching the viewers' comments?"
"He's laid his cards on the table; the revenge and face-slapping spree of this wish-fulfillment story is about to begin!"
Ling Lie: My foolish brother!!! Feel my pain! How many flights of stairs did I have to carry a bag of rice up!!!
"No...it's impossible!" Ling Yu staggered back half a step: "My brother is dead!"
Ling Lie raised his hand and slowly opened the mask on his face.
Ling Yu's breathing suddenly stopped.
That face was half the familiar silhouette of a boy from his memory, and half a cold, precise mechanical structure.
He was the one he had personally killed, the one he had felt guilty about for the rest of his life, and the one he thought had long since returned to the earth—Ling Lie.
"Ling Lie..."
[The dragon condescended to descend to the mortal realm, and for the first time, he saw the world around him with such clarity.]
[The stranger then tells the dragon that he is his fallen brother, and that they should now join forces to rebuild the world.]
"How did you become like this..." Ling Yu's voice was hoarse and broken as he looked at his younger brother's mechanical body, his heart filled with turmoil.
Ling Lie closed his armor: "I have accepted myself as I am now, and I have forgiven you."
He stepped forward and patted Ling Yu on the shoulder, his tone calm: "Now, only you can forgive yourself."
"The winds of change are blowing once again. Ling Yu, it's time to make a choice."
Ling Yu drew his arrow and nocked his bow, aiming it at Ling Lie, who had already stepped off the edge of the rooftop. His voice was hoarse and stubborn, a result of a lifetime of struggle.
"Reality can't be like the stories my father tells; only a fool would believe that!"
At the windy rooftop, Ling Lie stopped abruptly, without turning around.
He responded loudly amidst the surging winds and clouds, his words piercing through the howling wind and striking straight into the softest part of Ling Yu's heart.
"Maybe only a fool would believe you still have hope, but I do. Think about it, brother!"
Ling Yu watched Ling Lie disappear before his eyes, his grip on the longbow gradually loosened, and he walked step by step back to the altar that bore the family's destiny and half a lifetime of guilt, and slowly sat down.
The scene suddenly shifts, with rich ink wash spreading out. Two divine dragons, one azure and the other emerald green, coil and intertwine on the rice paper, their roars hidden between the brushstrokes, exuding ancient charm and profound artistic conception.
As the ink wash painting fades away, the dignified and sophisticated bee colony logo appears in the center of the image.
A short 7-minute hero CG is of comparable quality to the best animated films available today.
The media around the booth were also thoroughly enjoying the show and discussing it extensively.
Eggplant rubbed its face, briefly processing the plot, then sighed.
"The swarm understands Chinese players best. First there was the Wolf Fang Special Forces in Rainbow Six Siege, and now there are the Ling brothers in Overwatch."
"Moreover, they are all very well made and conform to the aesthetics of Chinese people. You should know that there are basically no Chinese characters in the world's top AAA games."
"Let them play games, and the dragon element might be incorporated into other countries within the Confucian cultural sphere."
The viewers in the live stream were prompted by Eggplant to start a conversation, and they all started discussing the matter in the chat.
Greatness needs no words! ×99
"The flavor is so strong, no further explanation needed!" ×999
"President Yang is genuinely friendly to Chinese people; every Chinese character he designs is both handsome and powerful."
"I hereby declare that from today onwards, Ling Lie is my ultimate hero! I hope everyone will refrain from competing with me for him!"
I hereby declare your declaration invalid!
"Although I've praised it many times, I still want to say—Hive Animation."
"Mr. Yang, stop thinking about your few crooked tech companies. Focus on making good games. The revitalization of China depends on you!"
"Damn, I almost forgot. The current Hive is a tech company. I wonder where Mr. Yang's 'tech' is?"
Ask Yang Yi if there are promotional videos for the other heroes.
"And can I sign that female cosplayer? I've already made a mistake with her!"
"If every hero had a cutscene like in Rainbow Six Siege, how much would that cost?"
"If all of them were this quality, it would probably cost tens of millions!"
"Mr. Yang really knows how to spend money! He's been acquiring companies and developing games all this time; the revenue from Rainbow Six Siege and Plants vs. Zombies must have been gone by now!"
"Have you forgotten about XunTeng's 'sponsorship'?"
"I had completely forgotten. Thanks, XunTeng!"
"Thank you, XunTeng!" ×999
Well! The trending topic that XunTeng just dropped from the top of the list is definitely going to be pushed back up by netizens.
Yang Yi was pleased with the flattery from the eggplant and the viewers, but he didn't like the tone of the viewers' voices!
The dragon is a symbol of emperors!
Even though we are both from the Confucian cultural sphere, we cannot concede to Japan. If the games we design cannot achieve cultural export, then Yang Yi's trip was in vain.
I just hope that the black lily cosplayer doesn't get caught, otherwise the fans who made the mistake will probably be furious.
Oh no, I'm feeling nauseous again!!!
