Chapter 727: The Daily Life of Haters
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
After watching yesterday’s livestream, the elves entered the shop as soon as it opened the next morning. “Sir, since the shop is open, you can continue playing Outlast now!”
“???” Mr. Fang looked at the elves in bafflement.
It’s early morning, and you guys have nothing to do but watch the livestream?
Helpless, Mr. Fang sat down before a computer and continued the livestream after eating some instant noodles.
“Huh? The shop owner is livestreaming again…?” In the old shops, at least half of the players had new communication jades, so it was more convenient for them to watch livestreams than the players in the new shop.
Some elders of Liuyun Daoist Palace and disciples of the Cloud Ocean Faction began to watch the livestream while having morning tea in the pa.s.senger spiritual boats to Jiuhua City.
“Huh… the Livestream is on again!”
Mr. Fang rarely livestreamed; he didn’t even livestream the ma.s.sive game, World of Warcraft. Therefore, most of the players entered the livestream room and watched.
Meanwhile, on a street in Canglan City.
“Newspaper! Today’s newspaper!” A boy who was about 14 years old waved his arm and yelled on the street.
As an autumn leaf slowly landed on the ground in the morning breeze, this boy suddenly felt the air turning cold and murderous.
“Give me a copy.”
The boy turned his head and saw a group of elves walking in through the city gate.
The leader was a silver-bearded old man who was holding a silver staff with wood whisks.
This old man’s greyish-blue robe looked ordinary but was exquisitely made. On a closer look, one could even see exquisite embroidered leaf patterns which were the unique decorative patterns of the Elf Clan.
“Five copper coins.” The boy handed him today’s newspaper immediately.
Although mages and aristocratic knights communicated with magic letters or visual projections, this cheap and useful communication method was still popular.
“Today’s news is all here!”
One elf elder read the newspaper and said, “Elder, some humans are indeed saying that visiting the so-called Origins Internet Club equals treason. Look, the newspaper says that there are…”
He looked at the number printed on the newspaper and said, “There are hundreds of thousands of humans publicly criticizing the… um… Origins Internet Club.”
“Hurry up! Let’s go to this Origins Internet Club and see if Elder Sewell is in there!”
Although they didn’t believe it too much, the elves must give this issue proper attention!
Meanwhile, in the alchemy room that wasn’t very s.p.a.cious, the stout mage dressed in a black mage’s robe looked excited while words appeared on the magic letter line after line. He seemed to be in a magic forum focusing on mystical realms.
Then, this mage re-opened a post named ‘Love the Legend of Sword and Fairy’, and under the post was a comment from him. [Are you referring to the mystical realm in which the heroine is a thief?]
[What? The heroine is a thief?]
[This mystical realm named ‘The Legend of Sword and Fairy’ has such an evil theme?]
[Is it true? I was planning to visit that shop and try it…]
“…”
Sure enough, this mage saw many people replying to this comment.
[Yeah. Not only is the heroine a thief, but one of the main characters is a traitor of his faction. Besides, someone tested the so-called artifact-making in the Legend of Sword and Fairy and found that it’s useless!]
[Remember, don’t trust the Legend of Sword and Fairy!]
“Hahahaha!” After replying to many comments, this mage cheerfully opened another article which was posted by himself. [Listing Ten Reasons Not to Play World of Warcraft.]
In the post, the mage quoted many professional comments of some ‘masters’.
Next to his post, there were other posts such as [Don’t Let Garbage Mystical Realms Mislead You in Aesthetics], [Holy Light Spell in World of Warcraft Mystical Realm Was Tested to Be Useless], and [Don’t Be Fooled by It]. These posts almost flooded the whole forum.
As a mage of the Royal Magic Union, Dicas bought a bowl of instant noodles this morning and began browsing this magic forum.
Suddenly, she saw the post t.i.tled [The Heroine of the Legend of Sword and Fairy Is a Thief? The Main Character Is a Traitor?!]
Han Lingsha used the proceeds that she took from the tomb to help the poor people! And why are they tras.h.i.+ng Yun Tianhe?!
While reading these posts, Dicas replied furiously, [Have you played it? Don’t talk about things you don’t understand!]
How come they are hating on the game so blatantly?!
In the not-too-big alchemy room, the mage heard a beep. “Someone replied?”
Seeing Dicas’s reply, this mage sneered and replied, [Another traitor?]
He first tossed out the accusation without hesitation.
“Ahhya-!” Dicas was enraged when she saw this reply. She almost threw her Cappuccino onto the floor.
Dicas felt like crying in fury. As a member of the Royal Magic Union, she loved her nation, but someone dared to accuse her of treason?!
…
Meanwhile, in the distant Radiant Light G.o.dly Nation.
Dressed in a bright-red priest’s robe, Peeble glanced at the many delicacies on the table and personally put food onto the plates of the masters with a smile. “This idea is excellent…!”
“Hahahaha!” Master Auth smiled and said proudly, “I’m one of the administers of the magic forum named Eye of Mystical Realms.”
“If any heated comments defending Blizzard Workshop and Softstar Workshop appear on it…”
While he spoke, Dicas was organizing words and had written hundreds of words on her magic letter; she was about to post her reply.
When she injected magic energy into the magic letter to begin the transmission process, words appeared on the letter, [Your commenting privilege has been locked.]
“!!!”
“Wayaaaa–!”
In the lounge area of Mr. Fang’s new shop, people saw a female mage wildly slammed her hands on the desk in fury.
How can they do this?!
…
At this moment, Mr. Fang was still livestreaming Outlast.
After the main character got his fingers cut off, the game became more difficult to play.
It was scary to face the b.l.o.o.d.y hands which were not treated with any medication. Besides, this condition further weakened the main character’s physical state in the game.
Before his fingers were amputated, the main character still had some strength to fight with the deranged monsters, but now he lost all abilities to even struggle.
The main character’s body could even turn cold due to the loss of blood.
It meant that the main character couldn’t last long in this state.
Mr. Fang was still calm in the game, but he began to pant when he spoke due to his poor physical conditions. “When we flee from the deranged doctor, we must close the door behind us since this act will earn us a lot of time.”
Then, Mr. Fang ran to get the keys to the elevator. After all, the elevators in the hospital needed keys to operate. The moment that the main character entered the elevator, the doctor caught up. Obviously, the doctor knew the terrain and antic.i.p.ated the escape route of the main character.
The main character tried to push the doctor out but obviously was too weak to do that.
When the doctor got half of his body into the elevator, it began to move!
“My goodness!”
“Ahh! Killer elevator! Another killer elevator!” Sala obviously remembered how she had died from the fall in Undercity.
After the doctor died, rain began to pour outside the hospital.
The ominous presence got thicker in the darkness while the whole atmosphere of the game felt even creepier. It felt like something was trying to crawl out from the gloomy darkness.
