Collapse? No, this is daily

She moved forward very fast, except for the occasional mistake that would cause Xilin to lose some blood, but this blood would be replenished quickly. It was not until she met the fake knight that Xilin stopped for a while.

The huge size compared to the little knight calmed Xilin's inflated heart a little, but after a few attempts Xilin figured out the fake knight's attack pattern.

Soon, she swung the bone nails and moved forward to fight with the false knight.

This novice boss was basically not difficult, and many people could pass it with one life. Although she was only left with one drop of blood in the end due to her greed, she still managed to live up to her previous boast.

Just when Xilin thought she could keep moving forward, she encountered the second boss.

Mauric is depressed.

Recalling the difficulty of the first boss, Xilin swung the bone nail forward with confidence, but looking at her health bar that returned to zero within twenty seconds, Xilin fell silent.

No, shouldn't the difficulty between bosses be linear?

Not to mention that one life was passed, but at least she was evenly matched and had some sense of participation, right?

Looking at the orange juice shells scattered all over the sky, Xilin suddenly felt like she couldn't play anymore, and was sent away by Maurik in a few moves.

Of course, this didn't make Xilin feel too bad. She was just slapped in the face for her boasting. It was okay. She had long been used to it. As long as she played the ostrich and didn't go...

"Ok?"

Looking at the screen, when she realized that she would need to run the map again after the knight's death, the doubts that came out of her mouth subconsciously revealed the waves in her heart.

If this was still within the range that she could barely tolerate, when she came here again and again and was sent home by Maurik again and again, her mentality eventually became a little unbalanced.

Half an hour later, Xilin felt that she was just one step away, but her defense was finally broken when Maorik leaped up and sat her down on her back.

"No, this game is sick!!!"

At this moment, the smile on Xilin's face finally shifted to the faces of the audience.

[Host, don't be sad. Let me tell you a joke. Just now a pufferfish said that he could clear the level with one life, but now he has become autistic after being beaten. Do you think it's funny? ]

Chapter 70 Xier: “Ah?”

At the same time, perhaps because of their financial resources or because they were attracted by the popularity, a small number of game anchors began their painful journey in "Hollow Knight".

The game is indeed difficult. In almost every live broadcast room, you can hear the hosts' voices of being tortured to the point of being broken by the boss. But it is such a seemingly torturous game that makes them addicted and unable to stop.

A higher difficulty level will allow players to concentrate quickly. When a person concentrates on something, he or she will not want to be disturbed, the brain will be highly excited, and they will not even feel the passage of time. This state will allow players to access more details and fun of the game.

Moreover, this state is quite comfortable for players. Many players often feel that they haven't played much, and several hours have passed unknowingly.

And the most important point is that this game has great control over the rhythm.

The game doesn't actually have high requirements for personal operation. It requires simple slashing, jumping, sprinting, and at most a few small spells. More importantly, it requires players to be familiar with the boss's attack methods and rhythm.

When you first meet the boss, you may be quickly sent back to your chair by their rapid attack frequency and unpredictable movements, but when players challenge the boss again and again and gradually become proficient in the boss's attacks, they will find that their every move is full of a unique sense of rhythm.

They don't know how to lie like girls. Except for Zuo Te, the boss's attack will be exactly the same as his starting move. They are quite straightforward.

After challenging yourself again and again, you will feel that you have made obvious progress compared to the last time. This positive feedback accumulated bit by bit will be fully released the moment players defeat the boss, bringing an unparalleled sense of accomplishment and pleasure.

Even those rough people who don't like to "carry the board" will suddenly find that they have inexplicably become enlightened after repeated failures, and they can avoid all the boss's attacks and easily defeat the boss who has tortured them for a long time.

Coupled with the creation of the boss battle scenes, the catchy background music, and the excellent scene performance, it has almost reached the pinnacle of this type of game on the market. Just watching it seems to be a kind of enjoyment.

This also reduces the players' frustration to a certain extent and increases the sense of accomplishment brought by winning the battle, as if they had truly created an epic.

And, in Hollow Knight, high difficulty = high reward.

There are never any intentionally disgusting places in it. If players feel that a certain path is difficult to pass, or a certain boss is hard to defeat, then when players overcome it, they can get rewards corresponding to the difficulty, such as important skills and amulets.

As we overcame one difficulty after another and went through one test after another.

Every inch of the scenery in this world will be revealed to us bit by bit.

The majestic beauty of the Blue Lake, the desolate decline of the City of Tears, the Queen's Garden filled with crises and thorns, and the abyss filled with debris and unwillingness.

The little knight has traveled all over this underground world, writing his own epic.

The journey is not just about fighting. Every bug in the Holy Nest has their own story.

For example, Quiro, who has always been with the players, always brings a sense of security to the players whenever they see him. His words allow everyone to appreciate the Holy Nest, watch the rain, listen to the wind, and comfortably soak in the hot springs after fighting.

Then, watch him sit by the Blue Lake and tell us his story.

'I forget all the tragedies and see only miracles.'

This moment brought an incomparable shock to everyone. That was why, after he fell into eternal sleep, the bone nails remaining by the Blue Lake became a source of regret for the players.

In Hallownest, almost everyone has a chance to be saved, but Quirrell is the only one who makes players feel so powerless.

"Anti-Entropy Titan Game Realm Rating 9.9: ..."

"National Geographic Center Rating 9.1: ..."

"God City Starry Sky Rating 9.5: ..."

The high scores given by major review websites have also added to the popularity of "Hollow Knight".

Soon, the first week sales figures came out.

“Congratulations to Hollow Knight for selling over 300 million copies in its first week!”

With an announcement on the official blog of Gensokyo, all the players who love this game cheered, and those manufacturers who previously wanted to step on the game shut up.

What a weird thing. I can't play it at all. Slip away.

"Hehe, 300 million, hehe..."

In the living room, Nangong Yu and Xier huddled together, frowning at the other side where Bronya was giggling.

Nangong Yu, who had just returned from going out, approached Xier's soft body and whispered to her, "How long has Bronya been like this?"

"Since 10 a.m. when the specific sales data came out, Sister Bronya has been like this. No matter how hard Seele tries to call her, she won't wake up."

Seele looked at her sister Bronya worriedly, and then spoke to her brother helplessly.

"..."

It's almost twelve o'clock now. Could Bronya be stupid?

Out of concern for his future wife, Nangong Yu let go of Seele, came to Bronya, and gently pushed her shoulder.

"Hey, wake up, wake up Bronya."

“Hehe, hehe…”

Seeing that she was still smiling foolishly and had no reaction, Nangong Yu prepared to tell her something cruel.

"I'm going to get married to Xi'er soon, and I'm going to ask you to be my bridesmaid."

"Hey hey... eh?"

"Ugh?"

Not to mention the blushing Seele, this sentence finally touched Bronya's heartstrings, and her foggy vision gradually returned to clarity. She looked at Nangong Yu in a daze: "What did you say?"

"No, I didn't say anything. But you, what have you been laughing at all this morning?"

Hearing this, Bronya's originally confused expression was instantly filled with surprise. In front of Seele's instantly widened gaze, she hugged Nangong Yu directly.

"Yu, Yu, our game sold over 300 million copies in just one week, that's great!!!"

"Yeah, yeah, I know. I know."

Although he couldn't experience it personally, Nangong Yu could more or less imagine Bronya's current state of mind.

Bronya should be excited that her childhood dream has come true after going through so many difficulties.

"I'm so happy. I really am."

She smiled brightly, her cheeks flushed with excitement.

Seeing Yu's gentle smile looking at her, Bronya could no longer bear it and kissed her directly in front of Seele.

Chapter 71 Reward Yourself with a Galgame

After being suddenly attacked, Nangong Yu immediately turned his attention to Xier beside him.

When he noticed Xier puffing up her cheeks and looking at him with a pair of big eyes full of resentment, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Oh no, I might not be able to sleep again tonight.

......

"cheers!!"

In the evening, lively celebration sounds were heard from the living room at home.

"Hollow Knight" performed so well, Bronya naturally excitedly invited her good friends to her house for a celebration party. Today is the weekend, and Kaguya, who arrived early, naturally joined the celebration.

Using juice instead of wine, a group of people clinked their glasses happily.

After Nangong Yu finished saying some polite words, Bronya immediately and happily pulled Mei and Kiana aside to chat. Her cute appearance, like a child showing off constantly, made Mei couldn't help but laugh.

Kaguya found Seele and shared with her the cute little decorations she had made recently, and then the two of them planned to knit a sweater for each family member.

Xilin, on the other hand, was the only one sitting there. She had been sitting there in silence since she arrived until now, with a dull look in her eyes, which looked a little dazed.

"What happened to Xilin?"

Nangong Yu was originally being pulled by Bronya to listen to her muttering with Mei Kiana. When he noticed Sirin's appearance, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

Unexpectedly, Kiana started laughing as soon as she finished speaking, as if she had been waiting for someone to ask her a question. She pointed at her sister and laughed, "Playing Hollow Knight."

"what?"

Noticing the three puzzled looks, Kiana quickly explained, "This idiot is too impulsive. He was provoked by the live broadcast audience and made a bet that he could definitely do five gates without any damage. If he couldn't do it, he would do a live broadcast of washing his hair upside down."

Naturally, she and Mei finished the game made by their best friend as soon as possible, so the people present naturally understood how exaggerated the bet made by Xilin was.

"Uh...wish her good luck."

Raising the glass towards Xilin from a distance, Nangong Yu drank the juice in the glass.

Hope everyone is okay.

Without the mushrooms, the dinner party had fewer twists and turns. Everyone came with great joy and left with great satisfaction.

When he had some free time, Nangong Yu sat on the sofa and took a nap. Kaguya stood behind him and gently massaged his shoulders. Today was Saturday, so she naturally chose to stay.

She looked over her husband's head to the coffee table. A not-so-small box caught her attention. She leaned over and leaned close to her husband's ear. She opened her lips slightly, and a sweet breath hit Nangong Yu's ear: "Husband, what is that?"

The soft voice brought a sense of comfort to Nangong Yu's heart. He opened his eyes and looked in the direction Kaguya pointed.

"That's the TGA trophy. I didn't have time to claim it before, so I asked someone to claim it for me and mail it back to me."

"TGA... ah, is it To the Moon?"

"Yes, the Best Drama Award."

"Congratulations again, husband~"

Although Kaguya had already congratulated once when the list of winners was announced, this did not stop her from praising him again.

Who wouldn’t like such a gentle, beautiful, sweet-talking, and obedient fiancée?

At least, in the past six months, Nangong Yu has gradually sunk into this land of gentleness.

"It's a shame that Hollow Knight was released so late."

After hearing the conversation between Nangong Yu and Kaguya, Bronya came over and said a little depressedly.

She bent down, opened the small box, and looked at the dazzling trophy wrapped inside with a hint of envy in her eyes.

"Don't worry, Hollow Knight is fully qualified to win the Best Independent Game Award next year."

Nangong Yu smiled and comforted her, but Bronya shook her head.

"Huh? So unconfident?"

"Do not."

Bronya looked at him, a smile suddenly broke out on her face, and she said in a resounding voice: "According to the timeline, the next Best Independent Game Award should be our next work."

Hearing this, Nangong Yu and Kaguya were stunned for a moment, then both laughed.
