Chapter 553 - The Poison Milk Duo’s Powerful Return
[TL Note: Poison Milk is a Chinese slang where praying for someone makes that person perform worse.]
“My goodness!” Jessica covered her head with her arms and shrieked, “How did these people develop? Their civilization already developed to such a high level?!”
It was impossible to imagine how this could have happened for these people.
Among other things, the transition (spatial warp) in StarCraft was beyond their understanding; it was way more advanced than traditional teleportation!
What is transition? It originally refers to the transition in quantum physics, describing the drastic shift in quantum phases. Although it was different from the transition in StarCraft, it can be used to explain the instant teleportation method in the game.
The transition technique of Terrans was something like the warp drive as shown in Star Wars. The Protoss used their unique technology of particle reform, and Kerrigan, the Queen of Blades, created wormholes to teleport units to Mengsk’s home.
Carl, the Vanguard General, had a cup of wine in his hand, and he was planning to enjoy wine while watching the competition. However, he spilled it on his pants instead.
What did I say earlier?!
Fortunately, I didn’t show my face earlier!
His face turned pale.
The others around him saw his wet pants. “…”
“I spilled my wine! I spilled my wine!” He hurried to explain.
“…”
“Lady Jessica, your melon!” The maid picked up the slice of melon for Jessica.
“Forget it. Give me another slice!” She continued watching the competition.
…
Although the System provided the awards and venue for the competition, Mr. Fang, as the owner of the shop, had spent a lot of energy on this event as well.
For example, he had arranged the hosts for the gala.
Even now, he was still hurting for the money that he had paid from his own pocket.
“Wow! Awesome! Superb!” Ning Bi, the demonic woman, praised her companion, “This super cool and pure fairy with a beautiful singing voice beside me is a great figure.”
“Daoist Friend, you are exaggerating. I’m Qing Yun, an independent cultivator. I’m honored to stand here together with you.” Fairy Qing Yun looked calm and elegant, but her beautiful eyes showed her excitement. She was thrilled that Mr. Fang had gathered so many grandmasters together to defend against the enemies from the outland.
Since she would go to her auction house when she was free, Ning Bi was very familiar with this role. “First of all, let’s welcome all the friends who came from distant places and friends who are watching through the livestream! I’m Ning Bi! Welcome, everyone!”
Fairy Qing Yun was more reserved. “I’m Qing Yun! Welcome, everyone!”
“Wow-!”
“Welcome! Welcome!”
The audience outside the arena all screamed.
“Our blade master is awesome!”
“Hellbringer is unrivaled!”
“For the zerg!”
“Cheers for the Queen of Blades!”
“Fairy Qing Yun is awesome!”
“…”
“The atmosphere is so lively…” Jessica ate her melon slice while watching the show.
“Gulp! Gulp…” Carl gulped down his wine and stared at the scene before him.
Calmly, Ning Bi introduced, “After the group draw, our contestants are ready. 64 players from all over the world will engage in fierce battles in four groups.”
“Right.” Fairy Qing Yun nodded and said, “After the fierce battles in the groups, the four winners will battle for the first place.”
“The StarCraft competition and Dungeon Fighter Online competition will be held separately,” Ning Bi explained, “Now, let’s see who are in Group A of the Dungeon Fighter Online competition!”
She looked at the name list. “It seems like Group A is the group of death. King of the Swift Masters, Wang Xie!”
“F*ck!”
“This first participant is so powerful already!”
“Who’s Wang Xie? How come we don’t know about him?” The audience in the Heaven-Hiding Palace looked puzzled.
Jessica moved her spell and said, “Let’s hear what the audience members are saying about him!”
“He’s the genius of the Wang Family and the No. 1 Genius in the Heavenly Academy!”
“He won the first place in the academy entrance exam of the Heavenly Academy!”
What was wind?
Ordinary people would think that it was just a natural phenomenon.
However, for the people in the ancient magic realm, wind was an important factor in deciding one’s fate.
The depths of the Storm Hill, where the gales swept around, was the place where swift masters studied the origin of wind.
They were called wind chasers and swift masters.
“It’s said that he is the first person who could deftly control each of the hurricanes that swift masters summon using Vortex Hurrican!”
“Vortex Hurricane?!” The outlanders exchanged a look, recalling the destructive storm in the opening cinematics. That horrifying wind storm could be called the origin of wind!
“How can one control it deftly?!” F*ck…
They had the urge to cuss. Who are these weirdos!
Since the virtual reality games were different from the original ones, the players did more than controlling the timing and trying to connect combos.
In Dungeon Fighter Online, the players could control each move to the exact second!
The godlike masters wouldn’t hurt their teammates at all even if the latter stood in the attack range of a powerful skill that they learned after their first awakening.
“The next is Grand master Zhu Yanxiao!” A warrior with short hair walked up to the arena with a cool expression.
“My goodness-!” the audience yelled in astonishment.
“F*ck! Zhu Yanxiao!”
“How come I’ve never heard of him before?”
“I can’t believe that you haven’t heard of him! He is rumored to be the No.1 Blade Master. I don’t know where he is from for sure, but it seems like he is a civilian warrior from the Jiuhua City Shop. He’s super powerful!”
“A civilian warrior? Can he defeat the master warriors of the Spiritual State?”
“I didn’t believe it either, but this guy’s talent is… too insane!”
“Grand Master?!” The outlanders froze. They had just seen a person who had mastered the origin of wind, and now here came a grandmaster?!
At this moment, two figures who were engulfed in black cloaks and sitting in the rear were whispering to each other.
“What’s going on? Do we need to go up there and show ourselves on stage to participate in the competition?!
“Will our backgrounds be exposed?”
After Ning Bi introduced the contestants, she said, “Now, let’s turn the camera to our casters.”
“Hello, everyone. I’m Caster Xiao Yulv.” Although Xiao Yulv couldn’t play games, Mr. Fang had to go against his own will and managed to get Xiao Yulv a position as a caster.
“I’m Caster Mu Donglai.”
This time, the two of them sat in the special broadcasting hall in the Jiuhua City Shop.
Compared to their previous ‘casting experience’ where they sat on couches among the rest of the audience, this hall looked much grander.
“It’s the first time that we have such a big audience watching a competition…” Mu Donglai commented.
“You’re right.”
Mu Donglai said, “Gongzi Xiao, what do you think of the contestants in Group A?”
“For example, this group has Swift Master Wang Xie, Mechanic Tang Yu, Grand Master Zhu Yanxiao who many civilian players favor, and the No.1 Hellbringer from the Half City Shop… Nanhua Fairy Liu Ningyun. Wow! It seems like the contestants in Group A are all in the group of death.”
