Chapter 267: #267 - Mission impossible, something huge at the bottom of the lake!

“Unlocked content?”

“Meet Xu Meng? ? ”

“What's going on? ? ? ”

Dragon City Flying General was completely bewildered.

If it were just the first two, he could understand.

Currently, the players' progress is below the 100th floor, and the 200th floor is still far away.

The new content, Dream Weaver, is still under development and will only be released to players in the future, which is understandable.

Although wanting to play the new content requires upgrading hardware, it sounds a bit outrageous—how powerful do the special effects have to be that all players need to upgrade their hardware?

But all of this is not as outrageous as the last two sentences.

What game content requires personally meeting the game company's boss to play?

In shock and confusion, he closed the prompt window and found that his health bar was constantly decreasing.

At the same time, a silver-white flame was burning on his body!

“This is kind of cool!”

Dragon City Flying General was instantly conquered by this gorgeous visual effect!

Moreover…

“Isn't this already done?!”

But before he could be happy, Mr. Long, who had been watching him, asked him seriously: “Do you feel it? The flow of Qi?”

“I feel it!” Dragon City Flying General replied affirmatively.

His whole body was numb!

The feeling couldn't be clearer.

“Now, control it.”

But it had no effect.

The silver-white flames continued to drift into the air.

His health bar and stamina bar were constantly decreasing.

—VR glasses can't collect his brainwave signals; controlling the game data with that is impossible…

If he could really control game data with just his will without any tools, Xu Meng would fly over to become his disciple that day.

After waiting for a moment, Mr. Long shook his head in disappointment.

“It seems you don't have the aptitude.”

“No, I do!” Dragon City Flying General immediately retorted, “I just need some time.”

“Don't be stubborn. If your essence and energy are exhausted, you will wither and die.”

“So what if I die?” Dragon City Flying General didn't care, “It's just one life anyway.”

“?”

Mr. Long's gaze turned to one of looking at an idiot.

Even his disappointed expression faded a lot.

It seemed like he felt such an idiot's death was not a pity.

He shook his head and placed his other hand on Dragon City Flying General's right shoulder: “Then don't die in my room.”

“I can't be bothered to deal with the security bureau.”

With his movement, the numbness all over Dragon City Flying General's body began to slowly subside.

At the same time, in his perspective, the silver-white flames on his body became weaker and weaker.

Until they were completely extinguished.

Dragon City Flying General felt a sense of loss.

“So, I didn't pass the test?”

Mr. Long shook his head: “This only proves that you cannot enter through this quick method.”

“This power is called 【Nian】, a deep development technique for vitality.”

“Now that you know this power, you can try more gentle methods like meditation and Zen to develop it.”

“You can come find me again when you succeed.”

“But next time, you will need to come up and find me yourself.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a new mission appeared in front of Dragon City Flying General—

[Mission: Master the use of Nian Ability (Content Unlocked)]

Dragon City Flying General now understood everything.

If players upgraded their hardware and Dream Weaver unlocked this part of the content, they could quickly obtain new abilities through this convenient method and become Mr. Long's disciple.

But now that the content is not unlocked and they can't quickly enter, they will be sent away to “cultivate on their own.”

But in reality, “cultivating on their own” is just an excuse. Without upgrading the hardware or going to Xu Meng, it is impossible to complete this mission no matter how hard they cultivate.

So…

“Should I wait a bit? Or go to Ningzhou to find Xu Meng?”

Dragon City Flying General hesitated.

“Hesitate my ass! Buy a ticket now!”

“Get early access to the new hardware and directly enter the test server! How can you not go? ? ”

“Top-secret test, you might even get to play 'Monster Hunter' early!”

“When you see Xu Meng, remember to display your strength as the 【Egg-Crushing Grandmaster】! Give him a surprise!”

“If you're not going, give it to me! I'll go for you!”

The viewers were much more excited than him!

The silver-white flames just now had excited the entire livestream audience.

Now they can use new hardware, play on the test server, visit the Dream Weaver company, and see Xu Meng…

They couldn't think of a reason not to go!

“Then let's take a vote.” Dragon City Flying General opened the barrage voting function.

[Do you support the streamer going to see Xu Meng, or not?]

[1, Go]

The latest novel is first published on !

[2, Don't go]

Three minutes later, the voting ended.

The number of people who voted for [Go] accounted for an overwhelming majority of 98%!

This dispelled the last bit of hesitation in Dragon City Flying General.

“Okay! I'll book the ticket now!”

He took off the VR glasses and picked up his phone.

But he found that the red dots on his phone had exploded.

Private messages from various platform accounts, various chat software, player groups, and even text messages and phone calls…

It was exploding!

Only then did he belatedly realize that he seemed to have done something big.

Dragon City Flying General breaking through the 100th floor was big news in the global gaming circle.

It was even more attention-grabbing than the [Floor-Clearing Grand Prix] itself.

Because Xu Meng had said at the time that as long as a player could reach the 100th floor, he would publicly reveal more information about the new hardware—the 【Holographic Display Device】—and gift that player one unit.

This matter had a far greater impact on the entire industry, and even the global technology industry, than just the game.

Currently, the online asking price for this holographic display device is as high as several million.

Although everyone knows that Xu Meng is willing to give it away, he must not be afraid of the technology being cracked.

And it is very likely that mass sales are not too far away.

But there are still many people and companies who want to seize this opportunity, which may only last a few months.

Not all of them necessarily want to crack the technology; some people want to see the device in advance to study whether they can produce some peripheral products—like mobile phone cases and tempered glass films for mobile phones.

Even more, there are just pure technology enthusiasts, or wealthy second-generation players, who want to get the first device to show off.

Now, it has finally been determined that this device will fall into the hands of Dragon City Flying General.

Then the originally scattered attention naturally focused on him.

After he went offline to buy tickets, these gazes of attention turned to Xu Meng again.

But Xu Meng rarely became slow to react, and never bubbled up, making netizens all over the world wait anxiously.

It wasn't until the evening that he finally started a live broadcast with his account.

The netizens who had been waiting for a day immediately poured in, frantically sending barrages to the dark live broadcast room—

“Good evening, Lao Xu!”

“Are you finally awake?!”

“If you didn't say anything, I was going to find you at your company!”

“Are you there? Show us the goods!”

“Hurry up, hurry up!”

Although Xu Meng had notified bilibili, the platform still underestimated Xu Meng's popularity at the moment, and was caught off guard by the influx of netizens.

The live broadcast room started to lag like crazy in less than 30 seconds after the broadcast started, and the already dark picture was completely blurred, even Xu Meng's face became a mosaic.

Those who were slow and came in a few minutes later directly saw that the live broadcast room was offline.

It was 3 minutes later when bilibili hurriedly completed the expansion.

Everyone could finally see clearly that Xu Meng was actually hiding sneakily behind a large box covered with cloth, occasionally sticking his head out to take a look at the lake surface rippling slightly in the night.

He was not broadcasting indoors, but appeared on the shore of Jing Lake.

The audience asked him what he was doing in confusion.

Xu Meng first put his index finger in front of his mouth, made a quiet gesture, and then nervously looked at the lake surface.

After completing these actions, he said in a low voice:

“I was working overtime at the company just now and saw a huge black shadow moving in Jing Lake!”

“There must be something in the lake!”

“Something big!”
