[Devil May Cry 3 Virtual Reality Remake – 30 crystals for activation per person.]
“Is Devil May Cry a game in which we can beat devils or demons?” Baffled, the customers began to speculate. “We’ll be beating the devils and demons so hard that they will cry? Is this the reason for the name of this game?”
“Yeah. What’s this game about?” Upon entering the shop, Liu Ningyun immediately asked, “Is it like the Legend of the Sword and Fairy where we can kill devils and exterminate demons to support the Orthodox Dao?”
Obviously, she was interested in this genre.
Since the game’s name was Devil May Cry, Mr. Fang said, “You guys can just take it as a story about a half-devil.”
“Ugh… Half-devil?” Hearing the words upon entering the shop, Mo Xian involuntarily pulled her junior sisters further away from Ning Bi.
She whispered to Yuan Yan and the others, “It’s surely not something good.”
“Will we fall into Devil Dao by playing this game?”
“We’ll be in danger if we get qi deviation and fall into the Devil Dao in the game…”
“It seems like the shop owner is planning to play it himself now?” They watched Mr. Fang walk to Computer No. 1 with a cup of milk tea in his hand.
Meanwhile, the warriors and cultivators in Jiuhua City Shop had also noticed the new items of the shop.
Sitting happily at the counter, Jiang Xiaoyue poured herself a cup of milk tea before opening QQ. She was very pleased that Mr. Fang allowed her to move a computer onto the counter. [Boss, many customers are asking about the game ‘Devil May Cry’.]
Mr. Fang saw a loli’s avatar jump on QQ and immediately clicked it open. [Tell them that I’ll put the new game on the livestream.]
[Ok!]
…
Fang Qi glanced around the shop and saw that people were either playing the Legend of Mir 2, watching TV Series, or driving in Grand Theft Auto 5. Some were even playing the Legend of the Sword and Fairy and Diablo 2. It was quite lively in the shop.
“The shop owner is going to livestream the new game?”
It was still early, and some idling people were still lounging on the couches, eating instant noodles or sipping the newly-released milk tea.
Hearing that Mr. Fang would put the new game on the livestream, they immediately perked up.
“Another game with a weird name.” Sitting on the couch, Lan Yan looked at the big screen while eating instant noodles. “Ms. Nalan, what do you think this game is about?”
Nalan Mingxue said, “I hope it’s about warriors.”
After all, the previous released Grand Theft Auto 5 mainly featured potential spiritual artifacts, and Shu Mountain was undoubtedly about cultivators and their cultivation system. Warriors couldn’t relate, and it did little for them.
In other words, in the whole shop, only the King of Fighters and Wind and Cloud mainly featured warriors, but there was no virtual reality game focusing on warriors yet.
As a self-disciplined girl, Nalan Mingxue was eager to increase her strength.
“You’re right. It would be great if we have a game like the Legend of the Sword and Fairy but with a focus on warriors,” Lan Yan said, “But I guess it’s not plausible. After all, it’s usually cultivators who fight devils and demons, right?”
While they talked, the big screens were turned on.
Before them was a European-style building. The bright full moon rose high in the sky, giving the sky a weird blue color.
“You’ve heard of it, haven’t you? The legend of Sparda?”
It sounded like the beginning of a story while the smooth and reminiscent female voice brought the audience into that magical and amazing world.
“When I was young, my father would tell me stories about it. Long ago, in ancient times, a demon rebelled against his own kind for the sake of the human race. With his sword, he shut the portal to the demonic realm and sealed the evil ent.i.ty off from our human world. But since he was a demon himself, his power was also trapped on the other side.”
Forgetting to swallow the instant noodles in her mouth, Lan Yan watched the fighting scenes on the big screen with widened eyes. After all, she was a girl who had never seen a real devil before, and she had never heard such stories before.
“No… Is this a story about a devil?!”
Liu Ningyun and Mo Xian were dumbfounded. Words like ‘Devil’ and ‘Saving humans’ were enough to completely flip their worldviews upside-down.
Subconciously, they glanced at the devil who was warming itself with a cup of milk tea while bundling itself in a big quilt.
No way! How can this thing save humans?
Baffled, they turned their gazes back to the big screen.
“Ahem! Why are you look at me? I don’t know anyone named Sparda!”
On the big screen, the calm but somewhat sentimental voice continued telling the story, “I never believed it. I thought it was just a child’s fairy tale. I discover that the so-called legend wasn’t a myth at all. Sparda existed. How do I know? Well… I met the sons of Sparda – Both of them.”
On the big screen, two figures became clear. One was a young man who looked handsome, valiant, and somewhat demonic; he wore a dark red coat and had a double-handed sword in his hands. The other looked 90 percent similar to the first young man, and he wore a blue windbreaker. They swung the sword and saber so fast that their movements were a blur to the audience; only the turbulent winds created by the movements of the weapons left grey arcs in the rain, showing that their swords had moved at an extremely fast speed!
Although they were both fighting at close-range with weapons, their combat styles were very different from those used by the warriors in this world. Without sword energies or even warrior qi attached to the swords, the winds created by the fast movements of the sword and the saber showed the audience that each move contained explosive strength.
The warriors in the audience were fascinated.
“Though the same blood of their father flows through their veins, the two battled each other fiercely like arch enemies. It seems as if they drive some twisted pleasure from this brotherly fighting.”
“But in the end… only one was left standing.” Like a lightning bolt, one of them pierced his sharp saber into the other’s chest.
“He died?” The audience gazed at the big screens without blinking, enthralled by the fierce and b.l.o.o.d.y fight.
“If these two little guys are like me… they can’t die.”
“But it seems that they are imposters; they don’t even have 1% of my power.” With that said, a devil sipped his milk tea smugly.
Then, the scene turned to sometime much later, and a white-haired young man walked out of a room in one piece.
“…”
“He’s indeed unkillable?!” It almost spat out the milk tea in its mouth!
Dante, the son of Sparda, was obviously the main character of the game.
The audience watched as Dante was raided by devils and demons in his own shop, and he was pierced by sabers, sickles, and other weapons. Then, he pulled out these weapons from his body before fighting his adversaries…
“F*ck!?”
“How come this guy is so awesome?!”
“He’s intact after being pierced like that?!”
