Rebirth is fine, but I get eight hundred dollars right from the start?

That night!

The clock hands keep moving forward.

There was only a small gap left until 8 o'clock.

Tiger teeth.

The platform's first test had already endured a full day of scrutiny, yet the atmosphere inside the headquarters office building was even more somber.

On the platform server load monitoring screen, the curve representing the number of connections to Emperor's live streaming room has been pulled up almost vertically from the bottom, as if by a giant hand.

The dozen or so members of the operations and maintenance team sat at their workstations, their expressions varied, but their eyes were fixed intently on that number—

"Three...three hundred and seventy thousand!"

"The number of people online at any given time is about to exceed 400,000."

Gurgle.

Inside the room, someone unconsciously swallowed, and the previously tense atmosphere suddenly seemed to find an outlet.

"That's an exaggeration!"

"Who says otherwise? This person hasn't even arrived yet."

"Undisputed number one in the domestic game streaming industry."

"Be confident. If you remove the gaming circle, Emperor is still number one."

"What kind of opportunities did God close for Emperor? He's handsome, talented, popular, and rich..."

"Have you closed the window to suffering?"

"Damn... you'd better shut up."

The young members of Huya's Emperor Live exclusive service team were joking around with each other.

Unfortunately, even though the stream wasn't live, and the screen was black with the computer idling, hundreds of thousands of people flooded into the room and stayed online for over an hour.

The profound shock I felt was truly indescribable with conventional vocabulary.

Hurry up!

Where are they? Are they really going to start broadcasting right on time?

[Stop with the trailers, can't you just show us the full movie?]

I've watched this cartoon eight times already, how come it's still not eight o'clock?

[Making the brothers wait so long deserves punishment... Of course, if you were to do a livestream wearing black stockings like Rui Mengmeng, then the brothers might forgive you.]

[Haha, I agree with the comment above.]

Time passed second by second.

The frequency of bullet comments in the live stream discussion area is also becoming increasingly dense.

Finally, the clock hands moved.

It's exactly eight o'clock.

The profile picture of the live stream room, which had been gray for almost the entire day, suddenly lit up.

The moment the screen lit up, the comment section exploded like a powder keg, with dense white text slicing across the screen from right to left at such a speed that the naked eye couldn't even make out any single comment.

[Finally, you're here!]

【E God! ! ! 】

[Front row group photo!]

[Sobbing, this is something I've never done in my lifetime!]

[Here he comes, here he comes, the LPL's timing god!]

The chat box was filled with short sentences expressing various emotions from the audience, interspersed with countless emoticons and emojis.

The number of online viewers in the top left corner has just surpassed one million, and the density of bullet comments is so thick that the background color of the screen is almost invisible. Everyone is waiting for that familiar face to appear in front of the camera.

However, the handsome young man I had imagined did not appear immediately when the screen lit up.

Instead, a rapid and rhythmic percussion accompaniment was introduced.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The screen suddenly cuts to black in time with the drumbeats, and when it lights up again, the screen is filled with chibi-style hero characters, who fly in quickly from the left side of the screen one after another, freeze for a moment, and then disappear.

"Lee Sin, go all in!" "Crying Garen!" "Stunned Darius!" "Laughing LeBlanc!"

The classic moves of each chibi-style hero, paired with their highly recognizable images, flashed across the screen like a revolving lantern.

Each time a character is switched, the background music changes its theme melody for one second.

The comment section went completely crazy.

[Okay, okay, there's an opening animation!]

No, you've ruined the entire live streaming industry, you know?

[Wow, a chibi version of League of Legends? E-God, there's actually another surprise you mentioned.]

Is this the confidence to collaborate with Tencent? Not even a hint of worry about lawyer's letters.

[Wait, why is my giant bear depicted with twin tails? Who drew this chibi version?]

[(Laughs while covering face) To be honest, I like chibi-style ball girls, don't ask why.]

[Alright, alright, I'm not going home until I die from pressing the B key.]

[He can AFK and flame his teammates, and he can also tower dive and feed kills... E-God, I request you remove the camcorders from my base.]

After the last chibi-style hero flashed by, the live stream page went dark again.

The drumbeats gradually subsided, replaced by a deep cello solo, with a long and rich melody.

The next second, the camera slowly brightened from the extremely dark light.

First, there's a silhouette against the light, showing a young man sitting in a dark gray gaming chair, leaning slightly forward with his arms resting on the edge of the table.

The top light shone down, hiding the face in shadow, revealing only the chin and the faint curve of the corner of the lips.

The camera slowly zoomed in, the angle of the overhead light was slightly adjusted, and the face that countless viewers had been waiting for all day finally appeared clearly in front of the lens.

"I'll lead you into battle, I'll take you flying, I'll lead you into fierce fighting and show your divine might."

Lin Shu didn't use the typical "Hello everyone, welcome to the live stream" opening. After the necessary preamble, he grinned, gestured forward with his right hand, and gave a unique opening line to the camera: "Good evening, everyone watching the live stream."

"Standing before you now is Emperor, the strategic partner for the promotion of League of Legends by Tencent Games, chairman of the League of Legends esports club HWG, the 2013 League of Legends All-Star champion in Shanghai, the 2013 inaugural Challenger rank 1 in the global rankings, a professional League of Legends player, and your beloved streamer on Huya Live!!!"

After a brief pause, the barrage of comments surged like a flood.

【? ? ? 】

Okay, okay, for this cup-sized one, I have to give you 82 points; the rest are all 666s.

[You can add an opening animation, but you also have to put on a show with the opening narration?]

Excuse me, excuse me, there's not enough room for so many people to stand here.

[Hahaha! Oh my god, I can't take it anymore, I'm dying of laughter! I knew you were the one to bring us to the hilarious antics of live streaming.]

Good grief, giving yourself all sorts of titles, is that even possible?

This man is ridiculously strong; he could prove himself through his abilities, yet he insists on playing the abstract game.

Upon Lin Shu's appearance on the live stream, not only the viewers in front of the live stream, but also the senior management and staff of Huya's backstage, and even some game streamers who were lurking in the room with a learning attitude and who considered themselves to be top-notch at creating entertaining content, all fell silent at this moment.

study?

What a load of crap!

How are you going to get them to learn that?

"Ahem!"

Lin Shu glanced at the comments and coughed, saying, "Alright, alright, that concludes the entrance segment."

"At 8 o'clock sharp, Emperor welcomes all of you, Daniel Wu and Li Yifei!"
