Chapter 60: When the Nation’s Younger Brother Comes
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After preparing the cameras and sound cards, Xia Yu waved at Su Mei and the rest. “Go, go, go back to your beds.”
“Alright, I’ll be your first viewer on the live-stream.”
His roommates returned to their beds and searched for Xia Yu’s live-stream ID. Hence, before Xia Yu could start the broadcast, he received four subscriptions, including himself.
“I’m starting the broadcast.” Xia Yu held the mouse and was about to press the b.u.t.ton to start the live broadcast when he felt a little nervous.
“Let’s go, let’s go. Xia Yu, you’re the next live streamer! I’m Mr. Big’s roommate now.”
“Then I’m Mr. Big’s top bunk.”
Everyone’s teasing made Xia Yu less nervous.
“h.e.l.lo, everyone. I’m the broadcaster, Xiaoyu.”
When Xia Yu searched for the streamer guide online, he saw that there was a soundproof curtain on someone’s list. To prevent disturbing Yang Lin’s studies, Xia Yu also bought a curtain. The soundproof effect was not bad.
[ Wow, the host’s voice is really nice! ]
[ The most handsome person in the world of streamers! ]
[ I love you, broadcaster! ]
[ I can do it. ]
Before Xia Yu could finish speaking, the comments had already been flooded. Xia Yu looked at the number of viewers backstage speechlessly. The real audience was in their dormitory.
Since it was a gaming live-stream, Xia Yu was too lazy to show his face. However, the platform said that the camera would attract more people, so Xia Yu pointed the camera at his hand and displayed the live-stream on his phone.
Xia Yu had not played his account for long and was still in Starlight.
Xia Yu, who had played all kinds of games since he was young, was very proficient in King’s Glory. He liked heroes who had high explosive power and high damage, which was why he had gotten an a.s.sa.s.sin.
Ten minutes later, the results were 12-0-5. Xia Yu looked up and saw the number of viewers in the backstage. 5.
In other words, there were only two audiences who might not be real.
“Why is my popularity so low?” Xia Yu pulled open the soundproof curtain and poked his head out to ask Zhang Zhe. Zhang Zhe usually watched more live streams and knew more.
“It’s very normal for a newbie like you. Typically, a new streamer wouldn’t be that popular even when they’ve just started broadcasting. That is unless they receive large amounts of gifts from all the platforms. That way, they will be more popular.”
Zhang Zhe felt that Xia Yu would become popular sooner or later. After all, they played games together. Xia Yu’s reflexes were fast, his hand speed was fast, and his playing style was extremely fierce. Many people liked this type of play in Esports videos.
“Oh.” After hearing Zhang Zhe’s words, Xia Yu seemed to be in thought and shrank back into the bed.
Five minutes later, Bunny Teeth broadcasted a message to the entire platform.
“I have the money to bury a treasure chest in Xiaoyu’s live-stream. Everyone, come and dig for treasure!”
When fans rewarded the broadcaster with treasure chests that could attract the entire platform’s broadcast, the entire platform’s audience could see this piece of news. There were all kinds of gold and silver coins in treasure chests, so they were very popular gifts.
There was only one drawback to this item, and that was its price. A treasure chest was worth 5,000 RMB, and it was exclusive to ballers.
Looking at his rich ID, Su Mei, Zhang Zhe, and Yang Lin were all confused. This ID was their alternate account that they had seen Xia Yu register with half an hour ago.
Ha, the world of the rich was indeed colorful.
Obviously, the power of money was great. A treasure chest instantly attracted a large number of people, and the number of viewers backstage instantly increased from 3 to 350.
In the live-stream, the a.s.sa.s.sin was lying in ambush in the gra.s.s by the river. The archer opposite him tried to clear the troops. He took a step forward and took two steps back.
Huh? No one seemed to have caught him?
With that, the little braised egg was relieved and took smug steps towards the river. Unexpectedly, a tiger instantly ran out from the gra.s.s and made the little braised egg fall to the ground with a peaceful face within three moves.
The opposing a.s.sa.s.sin and mage rushed over to support him. The tiger, who had killed the little braised egg without losing any health, turned around, and with exquisite movement and fierce maneuvering, took three more kills.
At the same time, the announcement “My tiger has taken down four kills” sounded in the game.
[ Amazing! ]
[ NB! ]
[ Yes, yes. This positioning is very exquisite. ]
[ There’s something. ]
The audience who had come for the treasure chest were attracted by Xia Yu’s actions.
As the most popular game in the world, Mobile Legends had many fans, including a large number of female gamers. At that moment, not only were the female gamers in the live-stream shocked by Xia Yu’s skills, but they were also shocked by the well-defined hands in the camera.
His fair and slender hands moved quickly as he played the game.
[ I’m satisfied with his hand control. ]
[ Mommy, this hand, I’m gone. ]
[ I really want to know what a broadcaster with such beautiful hands looks like. I feel like he’s a sunny little handsome guy. ]
[ Hehe, what a love-struck fool. Would he not show his face if he was handsome? He must be a fatso. ]
[ Person in front, you must be jealous. You’re the one who is fat and should stay at home. ]
The comments were still noisy. Xia Yu had already wiped out five of his teammates and destroyed the crystal on the other end with the five kill points.
“Victory!”
The sign of victory appeared, and the results exceeded 100% of the players in the same level. The comments flooded with 666.
However, some people scoffed when they saw Xia Yu’s level.
[ Tsk, it’s just a low-end game in Star Glory. How can you spam 666 like this? ]
[ That’s it?? ]
[ Low-end game. ]
Indeed, on this live-stream platform where streamers often had 100 stars, Starlight seemed a little low.
“I just started playing. Come and see if it’s Star Glory in a few days.”
Xia Yu was not a patient person. Seeing that the comments were questioning him, he retorted.
He was a young man with a clear and melodious voice. The end of his sentence was slightly higher with a hint of arrogance, but it did not make him feel arrogant. Instead, it was like water bubbling under the summer sun, refres.h.i.+ng the heart.
[ AHHHHH! I’m gone! ]
[ This young voice, I’m dead!!!! ]
[ F*ck streamer, if you say something more and I’ll send you presents! ]
[ Tsk, what are you being arrogant for? Don’t think that you can get a subscription just because you’re goading me. I just don’t want to look at you. You’re too arrogant. ]
[ Is the person in front sick? Didn’t you come from Star Glory? ]
The majority of the gamers who were watching the live-stream were also at the normal level. The comments directed at Starlight triggered public anger, and under everyone’s joint report, they ran away dejectedly.
Facing the screams on the screen, Xia Yu was a little confused. ‘Isn’t this a gaming live broadcast? Why do they keep asking me to speak?’
At that moment, Xia Yu’s phone rang.
Xia Yu put down the mouse and picked up the phone. The comments were crying because Xia Yu’s hand had left the camera.
Then, everyone heard the clear voice of a young man in the quiet live-stream. “Sister.”
By the time Xia Yu returned from Xia Wanyuan’s call, the comments in the live-stream had doubled.
[ Brother! I’m here! ]
[ Ahh! Brother, why did you kill me?]
[ I’m dead! ]
[ Little Brother! I’ll give my life to you! ]
At the same time, many fireworks exploded in the live-stream.
