Let the scourge go to the right path, and you make games to reward them?.

Chapter 837 The Visitor (12)

Have you noticed that a non-player character has recently appeared in "Cyber ​​Cultivation"?

[It's probably just that the Sword Sect updated something new; don't worry about it too much.]

[No, that's not right. Every time there's an update, non-Sword Masters release the update details. Last time, when they changed Little Red to Little Blue, they even made a special announcement. They certainly wouldn't miss out on this new non-player character.]

"Then I wouldn't understand. After all, what do I know about games? All I know is how to play."

That's true. We're not after that billion-dollar prize; we'll just enjoy ourselves.

The billion-dollar prize remains a hot topic, but more and more people are giving up.

Xu Zifan's live streaming platform has been sharing various tips and tricks. He also revealed the game progress of Yun Jianxian, Diao Ye, and Lu Shuangxing, so that every player could know their current progress.

This is an outright, open conspiracy.

After announcing their progress, each player could see their current progress and then discover that their progress in the walkthrough was surprisingly advanced.

The game progresses much longer on Hard difficulty than on Easy difficulty, with many intricate side quests that require careful handling to avoid making the wrong choices.

In addition, some boss battles that could have been avoided had to be fought, and every battle was unforgettable, making it an excellent source of entertainment.

After seeing that the trio had successfully reached the Foundation Establishment stage and possessed countless magical treasures, yet still failed to clear the level, many players decisively gave up on the billion-dollar prize and instead began to observe the trio's actions and learn game techniques.

The massive influx of traffic into their live stream made the trio and Xu Zifan incredibly popular in the lower realm, and even attracted a large audience in the upper realm.

The Chu family originally planned to use 1 billion yuan to acquire traffic and then sell their own products.

Unexpectedly, the trio turned the tables on them. This stroke of genius made Chu Yuntian grit his teeth, but he had no choice but to compromise and reveal the intelligence inside his base.

Seeing that the Chu family had gone public, many other sects had no choice but to do the same, and a large number of internal tactics were revealed, much to the delight of the players.

Even today, there are only a few player teams still dedicated to completing the game, and they are all backed by large clans.

Unbeknownst to them, watching them play games every day became the most important form of entertainment in the lower realm.

They just eat whatever is convenient, they don't go to work much anymore, they don't sell kidneys much, and they spend their days hiding in a corner watching live streams and cheering for their favorite teams.

The entire Netherworld was transformed into a vast game world, where almost everyone was playing games and discussing their favorite teams.

The will of the people has brought about a great change in the atmosphere of the lower realm.

The four major families were the first to discover that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had changed, and the laws of heaven and earth seemed to be tilting towards the game, making the game "Cyber ​​Cultivation 2077" seem to be more complicated than it appears.

Something is brewing in the game, something sweet is growing in the game, and it may break through the soil at any time.

Undercurrents began to stir, and the powerful families began to take action. They instinctively realized that something was amiss and began to conduct in-depth investigations behind the back of the Grand Temple Keeper.

The three of them, including Lord Diao, also became ruthless.

The three of them took a long leave of absence and spent their days playing the game. They also had Xu Zifan and Paozi collect various information and then apply it to the game.

Entering Lan's hut, Xu Zifan found no one there. After handing over the information he had gathered that day to Lan, Xu Zifan sat down and began to study "The Sword of Non-Sword" and communicate with his clansmen.

After witnessing Lin Yuan's extraordinary strength and wealth, the Xu family completely sided with Lin Yuan.

This is something you have to gamble on!
They bet that Lin Yuan could defeat the other families, and that he came here to kill the four major families.

If we win the bet, we go to the upper realm; if we lose, we get married in the afterlife. It's better than doing nothing at all.

As a result, Xu Zifan's status rose accordingly. Xu Chang, the head of the Xu family, even publicly told his clansmen, "I think Xu Zifan treats his father the same way. Don't be polite, just call him Grandpa."

Thinking back to that time, Xu Zifan felt a little embarrassed.

But he also had to admit that it felt pretty good.

"What are you grinning about?" Lan said, displeased, while inspecting the magical artifact.

Xu Zifan, who was grinning foolishly, was suddenly startled, then clutched his chest and said, "Lan, stop doing that, you'll scare people to death."

"What, do I need to notify you first? Next time I'll yell, 'Stop shopping, your dad's calling you. Don't keep smearing your lousy face there, it's creepy to look at.'"

Xu Zifan looked at Lan speechlessly, marveling at how unique this non-player character was.

The other player is an extremely aloof character during normal gameplay, and even after being captured and transformed into a non-player character capable of reviving others, they still speak very little.

However, this non-player character becomes particularly interesting when the player is in spectator mode and there are no other players around.

Everyone seems to encounter a different Arashi. Some are easygoing and cute, some are aloof like a mature woman, and some even add a "meow" sound at the end of their sentences. In short, they are all very cute.

Some people have even found a completely new way to play: they don't play the game at all, but just chat with Lan in spectator mode and spend the day like that.

It's hard to say who the most famous real-life character is right now, but the most famous virtual character is definitely Arashi.

Everyone else's Lan is nice, but why is the Lan I met a crazy young girl?
Seeing Xu Zifan's puzzled expression, Lan's expression changed more than ten times before she rested her chin on her hand and looked at Xu Zifan with a puzzled look, saying, "I thought you liked this type."

"It's not that I hate it... wait, how did you know what I was thinking?"

"Haha, another one who doesn't read the user agreement. When I reunite with my big boss, I'll make him add a clause to the user agreement that allows non-Sword Sect members to freely swap your mouths and anuses. Let's see if you'll still read it then."

"Is there a problem with this?" Xu Zifan asked, puzzled. "The rectum can also absorb nutrients, and the mouth can also expel waste. You can switch them if you want, just let me know."

"...This damned low human rights advantage!"

Upon discovering that Lan had changed her personality again, Xu Zifan realized that Lan seemed to be getting closer and closer to someone else.

However, he did not delve into the matter further because he saw someone enter Lan's secret base.

Xu Zifan knew who the other person was the moment he saw them.

Those terrifyingly large arms, shoulders like double-door refrigerators, chest muscles that jiggled up and down like musical notes—every detail points to one thing:
This guy is from the Chu family!
