Chapter 781 - E-Sports, Here I come!
“Sir, as for the E-Sports that you mentioned, when will it be released?” After watching the Turbulent Homeland and Wind and Cloud 3, the players in the branch shop at the Dongxuan Cave Abode were still thrilled. However…
The shop owner had told them that the so-called E-Sports could turn them ‘god-like’ and into ‘demon kings’.
It sounded ridiculous, but…
Even peak saint-level masters like us are scared by the stuff in the shop. At least, none of our artifact masters in the East Continent can make such mystical realms or TV Series.
Maybe…
At this moment, the white-bearded and white-haired Grand Elder of the Heavenly Faction summoned some elders for questioning. Meanwhile, he turned to the last page of the ancient golden scroll.
“But there are exceptions to everything…” This fragmented line of ancient words had been deciphered by him little by little.
It seemed to be a story about an ancient era in which countless masters from the East Continent and the West Continent compete to reach a higher realm…
The last few pages of the golden scroll seemed to have been torn off by someone purposefully as if this person didn’t want many people to know about this secret history.
“It sounds like…” He glanced around and said, “like the sword duel at… the top of Hua Mountain?”
Mr. Fang did say that E-Sports is like this duel at the top of Hua Mountain, right?
The faction master who was dressed in a reddish-brown robe stood beside the Grand Elder and looked at the latter’s ancient face. “Elder… do you think the E-Sports is real or not…?”
Grand Elder Zhuge Qingyun looked at the incomplete scroll with his old eyes.
“Perhaps… it’s real.” The old man was obviously hesitant.
“Are you sure…” As a sensible man, Faction Master Feng Xuehe felt like something wasn’t right, and he wondered, Is the Grand Elder muddled in head due to his old age?
That was why he asked doubtfully.
The white-haired old man glared at Feng Xuehe and reprimanded in a loud voice, “Of course, I’m sure! How can it now be?”
This little b*stard dares to doubt my words?! When I managed the faction, you were still a small baby who was drinking milk somewhere! How dare you!
“Read for yourself!” He threw the golden scroll left by the ancestral master of the faction at the faction master’s face. “Read for yourself!”
“Um…”
“Masters competing…’Sword duel at the top of Hua Mountain’…!?” Widened-eyed, Feng Xuehe stared at the words on the golden scroll that were translated by the Grand Elder.
It is exactly the same as what the shop owner had said!
“Then, the E-Sports can really make us god-like?!” His expression instantly turned serious.
While holding the golden scroll with both hands, he said shakily, “You… you finally deciphered the ancestral master’s golden scroll?!”
“Of course!” Grand Elder Zhuge Qingyun stroked his snow-white beard and said proudly, “It’s well worth my efforts in the last 200 years!”
“Excellent!” Faction Master Feng Xuehe shouted, looking ambitious as he felt that he would embark on a great path leading to immortality just like their ancient ancestors who had stunning talents.
In this era, they would write their own legend!
…
Since the new shop had just opened, Mr. Fang would come and check it occasionally.
It was early morning, and some elders and disciples walked up to him respectfully. “That E-Sports…?”
Mr. Fang pointed at the small blackboard.
On it was written, [Today’s new game: League of Legends.]
[The activation is free.]
“This mystical realm… is free?!” They exchanged a look of astonishment.
“How can it be?!” Xiao Yunhe said in shock.
Did the shop owner say that it can help us become god-like?!
“You can become Ascendance Realm Masters by cultivation.” Mr. Fang rolled his eyes at them. “Do you charge money for that?”
“Um…” Xiao Yunhe’s face turned stiff. “Senior, you’re right.”
…
Meanwhile, in the Canglan City Shop, the elves obviously had also seen this new game. “Free again…?”
“There’s a free mystical realm?!” As a member of the Magic Union, Adolf was also surprised.
“We had discounts last time…” Dicas felt indignant for Mr. Fang and said, “Now, it’s free of charge! The shop owner is so kind!”
“But will the shop go bankrupt if it does business this way?”
“It’s not like that these mystical realms are hard to sell. Instead, they are very popular. But the shop owner still released a free mystical realm!”
The elves were also touched. “The shop owner is so kind-hearted!”
“Yes! He is!” Rowling had bought ten games last time and had a flat wallet now. Therefore, she was so touched that she shed tears. “The shop owner is so considerate of us!”
“Right!” Sala seconded that, “If the new game were expensive, I would have to consider if I should buy it.”
“I’m surprised that it’s free of charge!”
“Cheer for the new game that we can play for free!” The handsome young man dressed in a mage’s robe and standing at the counter was Merlin, the new employee of the shop.
“I think we should celebrate it with a bottle of Coke!”
“Right! I want a bottle of Coke too!”
“One bottle for me! Spicy sticks, too!”
“Let’s go buy some as well!” Rowling suggested, “We were planning to buy the new game. The money we save on the new game is money earned!”
Right now, the door of the shop was wide open.
The spies from the Radiant Light Godly Nation sneaked glances into the shop.
“Origins Internet Club is losing money again…”
“If the situation continues, we’ll win without a fight!”
In the Radiant Light Godly Nation, St. Heinz exchanged a look with St. Dulan as he said with a smile, “Free of charge?”
The previous discounts were big, but they still could earn back the cost.
But free of charge now?!
After all, any growth in strength was not without cost. How could mystical realms that could increase people’s strength and battle skills continue to operate without the support of energy?
Free of charge…?
“Our enemy is powerful, but it’s a pity that he wants to be a selfless saint,” Saint Dulan shook his head and said with a smile, “He’s too much of an idealist and will bring destruction to himself!”
“Maybe…” a red-robed senior priest said with confidence, “We can remove some parts of the restrictions on the residents in the remaining faith nations? So more people will visit their mystical realms and thus accelerate their destruction!”
“Also, the Stand Kingdom… I think we can remove some of the restrictions…”
“But we must work harder to hunt down Grand Mage Merlin.”
“Do it secretly!”
…
Meanwhile, the players in the shops all sat before their computers and turned on the game with Coke or spicy sticks in their hands.
They started the game with the dream of becoming god-like.
“E-Sports, here I am!”
