November 18, Sunday, cloudy to rainy.
As soon as night fell, a drizzle began to fall over Tianlian College. The raindrops dripped onto the balcony, and the splashed silver fragments fell on the balcony tiles, flowing along the slightly sloping ground into the water diversion ditch, and gurgling into the water pipe.
"It's a five-hit combo! Retreat, retreat, retreat! Let the NPC take over!"
"Change to the second form, enchant immediately, eat green grass!"
In the living room of Ren Suo's house, Ren Xingmei was sitting on the sofa holding Xiao Jiu, reminding him from time to time.
Xiaojiu stared at the TV screen very intently, holding the game controller, controlling her knight character to fight the final boss, rolling, raising her shield, and attacking with a few swords, but she would be killed by the boss because of her greed for swords and had to reload the game and start over.
Ren Suo was holding a laptop and browsing the intranet, looking at the questions pushed on the intranet.
There have been quite a lot of problems with intranet push these days, because it seems that sources of trouble have frequently appeared around the world in the past ten days.
The source of disaster is born out of disaster, so the appearance of the source of disaster means that some kind of disaster is also happening.
Smaller sources of chaos are naturally flames and smoke, most of which appear at fire scenes. This type of source of chaos is also the most frequent. For some reason, criminals around the world are very professional now, and almost all of them are murderers and arsonists, which leads to the frequent appearance of these small sources of chaos.
Most of these criminals are also extraordinary people, but Ren Suo cannot see their extraordinary abilities. He doesn't know whether the Xuan Kingdom Intelligence Network has not investigated it or their extraordinary abilities are confidential.
The bigger sources of disaster are much more serious. For example, the 'source of sandstorm disaster' appeared in the north of Tianjing. Not only in the intranet, but also in major media forums, there are rumors about the source of disaster: it looks like a giant scorpion, with a sandy yellow body, and its body is large enough to occupy the area of a regular football field.
It stirs up violent sandstorms when it walks, and no grass grows wherever it passes. Once it sees a moving object, it burrows into the ground and rushes towards it, directly piercing a passing truck. The media nicknamed it the "Sand King."
However, Xuan Guo did not prevent the people from knowing the information about the Sand King. Instead, he released a video about the Sand King on all platforms.
The video is only 59 seconds long. In the midst of the wind and sand, a lightsaber comes from a thousand miles away, completely tearing apart the curtain of wind and sand like a thunderbolt, and nailing the marching Sand King to death on the spot.
Then a handsome figure in a dark Taoist robe appeared on an off-road vehicle that was speeding towards the center of the sandstorm. He had fair skin and clean clothes, as if there was an invisible barrier protecting him in the sandstorm, and he exuded a feeling of "high-end, atmospheric and classy".
He looked at the Sand King who had been captured in the distance, his expression unchanged. He formed a sword seal with his fingers and shouted loudly. The flying sword that had nailed the Sand King turned back and hovered in front of him.
The young Taoist drew a big circle with his hands, and the flying swords rotated with his arms. Dozens of flying swords formed a circle, like blooming lotus of light, so dazzling that one could not look directly at it!
"disease!"
The lotus-like flying sword poured out and turned into a rushing river, completely piercing through the still struggling Sand King!
The flying swords dispersed in all directions from the Sand King's body, and countless colorful spiritual energy that seemed real and illusory leaked out of the Sand King's body. After a moment, it turned into ashes and dissipated. The sandstorm it stirred up also turned into rootless duckweed and subsided in just a dozen seconds!
That’s right, this person is the emperor You Jian, the straight male cancer emperor that Ren Suo is familiar with!
However, in this video, he was dressed like a decent human being, with his back straight, and the only word he spoke was "fast", which did not reveal his essential attribute of being a freak at all. Moreover, he burst out with terrifying fighting power like a sword immortal, which was very fascinating to watch. Even Ren Suo could not help but feel that "a real man should be like this".
There is no doubt that the Xuan State government wants to promote You Jian as the star fighter of Xuan State.
After the video was released, You Jian immediately opened a Weibo account with the name 'You Jian'. His avatar was his immortal image, and he introduced himself as a 'national registered monk, guardian of the Great Wall'. He also posted his first Weibo post: You Jian, in.
His Weibo was forwarded 100,000 times that day, but...
Ren Suo still remembers the trending headlines on Weibo that day: You Jian, a pervert, the licker of the fairy palace, and You Jian vs. the King of Sand on the Great Wall.
The most liked comment on his Weibo was: Although you are a pervert, I still respect you as a man! , and it also included a picture of "You Jian being beaten away by the disaster messenger of the Fairy Palace in the abyss."
Many companies also saw the official intention and wanted to take advantage of the trend, so they quickly launched "Taoist You Jian" T-shirts, pants, mouse pads, mice, and mobile phone cases. However, most of their comments would also include the picture of "You Jian being knocked away by the Immortal Palace's disaster messenger in the abyss", and everyone was also very considerate to help their products replace this picture.
There is no way. Almost all netizens have watched the Destiny Live. They have watched it and replayed it. Naturally, they will see the scene where You Jian chased and hacked the Disaster Messenger on the second day of the live broadcast but was beaten up, and the scene where You Jian wanted to help the Disaster Messenger in the abyss but was beaten up by him.
That’s right, You Jian killed the source of the chaos and made a great contribution to the country, but his image as a pervert is so deeply rooted in people’s minds that it will take some time for people to change their mind.
It’s not that netizens hate You Jian, they just feel that saying “thank you” is too superficial, and it would be more sincere to say “even though you are a pervert, I still respect you as a man”. And by posting You Jian’s black photos, they naturally want to use such behavior to express their love for You Jian.
Originally, if You Jian had ignored the matter, or directly asked Weibo to delete the comments, the matter might have just passed.
However, You Jian posted another Weibo the next day: Can you please stop posting photos of me being beaten by my wife? !
Also attached was a frontal photo of 'Taoist You Jian', with a sentence above it saying 'I am practicing diligently and my heart is calm'.
The Xuanguo network exploded again, and his Weibo post was forwarded a million times and became a hot topic on the same day: You Jian was beaten by his wife.
In less than a day, a fan battle game between You Jian and the Messenger of Disaster even appeared on the Internet, but the content of the game mostly involved You Jian being beaten up by the Messenger of Disaster.
This series of operations made almost everyone remember the two words "Great Wall" and "You Jian". They knew that in addition to the Countermeasures Bureau, there was also a national supernatural department that could chase the clouds and the moon and had close exchanges with the Asgard. Its members were also very strong and were guarding national security at all times.
Ren Suo was very happy watching those two days, and then he thought that the operation of Great Wall was actually not bad.
After all, it is not easy to change You Jian's image, and it seems that there is no possibility for him to change his nature.
When Ren Suo looked at You Jian's circle of friends, he saw him complaining, "It's really uncomfortable to wear a Taoist robe, sportswear is the best equipment for humans", "Even if I don't stand up straight, is there anyone who dares to look down on me?" and so on.
If the authorities had created the image of You Jian as a "cold monk" from the beginning, but later on when You Jian interacted with others his masculine personality was exposed, causing his character to collapse, it would have been even more counterproductive.
It would be better to just stick with You Jian’s previous online image, making You Jian’s image more down-to-earth and easier to be recognized by the public.
Maybe this is also a test of the Immortal Palace. The mortal cultivators are now openly pursuing the strong men of the Immortal Palace. As long as the Immortal Palace responds, the officials of Xuan Kingdom will make money.
The Immortal Palace accepted it, and the Xuan Kingdom officials were of course willing to accept this marriage.
If Asgard refuses, then You Jian will become a tragic character and gain more praise, and the official will also be able to know Asgard's requirements for its members.
If the Immortal Palace ignores it, it means it tacitly agrees. The officials of Xuan Kingdom certainly don't mind. After all, it doesn't cost money to test the water. It just means losing face for You Jian.
Anyway, no one will look down on You Jian because of this. Even if You Jian is ugly, marries a girl who is two chakras younger than him, or says something pretentious like "set a small goal for yourself, such as getting promoted four times in a year", people will only admire and yearn for him because he has the strength to suppress mountains and rivers and change the world.
Even though You Jian is a comedian, he is a comedian who can control the birth and death of fate.
But making You Jian's image acceptable to the public can further eliminate the barriers between ordinary people and extraordinary people.
There are already many statements such as "superhumans are excellent humans", "ordinary people will be eliminated", and "superhumans deserve privileges". There are also news reports of superhumans committing crimes from time to time, which leads to mutual discrimination between ordinary people and superhumans.
However, there are not many extraordinary people now, and ordinary people may also become extraordinary people, so this gap is not obvious yet. But if the country does not intervene, something will happen sooner or later.
At this time, You Jian's existence was simply a divine move. In the entire Great Wall, he was the most suitable person and he didn't mind playing this kind of comedian role.
You Jian now has 40 million fans. Ren Suo estimates that the next move by Xuan State officials will be to publish some content such as "Daily Life of Monks", "Monks' Work is Very Dangerous", and "Ordinary People Can Also Be Monks" through You Jian's account.
One of the strongest cultivators in Xuan Country is so approachable, which will naturally further ease the conflict between ordinary people and cultivators.
Not only Xuan Country, other countries also took advantage of this disaster to cause chaos and launched their own obvious extraordinary people to calm the people's hearts, and by the way, they could also attract more wild extraordinary people to serve the country.
Recently, a spear master who claims to be a descendant of the Hozoin school appeared in Fanying Country and suppressed the source of the earthquake disaster in Hokkaido.
A huge sea monster suspected to be the source of the tornado appeared in the shipping route outside Lisbon, Europe, and was shot dead by a gun super from the European Super Guild. It is worth mentioning that the European Super Guild is a large super organization based on the European Union, with a total of 28 countries joining. The gun super who shot the sea monster dead was marked as an "extremely dangerous person" on the intranet.
An avalanche occurred in the Ural Mountains in Siberia, and a giant snow monster was created, but it was quickly extinguished by Russia's Bear Warrior super troops. The leading warrior was a super who could use the power of thunder, but it was unknown whether he could shoot a super-electromagnetic cannon.
A terrifying giant snake that looked like a tank appeared in the Amazon rainforest in Colombia, South America, but was soon completely controlled by the Brazilian supernatural beings and could not move. Finally, it was completely killed by the Brazilian military with guns and tanks. The leader of the Brazilian supernatural beings was a man with a cleft lip and a funny and evil face.
Finally, there is the troubled Federation.
There have been many disasters and sources of calamity in the Federation these days, and the Federation's watchmen are putting out fires everywhere. Just by watching the news, Ren Suo feels that the people of the Federation are in dire straits.
Among them, the most famous Federation Watcher, who defeated the most troubles and was the most popular supernatural being, was the handsome blond man that Ren Suo had seen a few days ago. He was called the "male public enemy" and seemed like a perfect prince from a fairy tale.
Brett Leopold.
"Xiao Jiu is awesome!"
Ren Suo raised his head and saw that the boss on the TV had finally bled dry, knelt weakly on one knee, his body burst into flames, and turned into ashes before dying.
"Xiao Jiu defeated the final boss!" Ren Xingmei rubbed her chin on Xiao Jiu's head and said with a grin, "You've cleared the level. Are you happy?"
My younger sister has come over to play with Xiaojiu these past two days, which has led to a rapid improvement in Xiaojiu's skill level and rapid progress in the game. Now he has actually completed the game.
Games like this that are difficult but highly playable and not annoying to players are rare. The sister's unintentional action put an end to Ren Suo's conspiracy.
He could only think of other ways to make Xiaojiu study obediently.
But at this time Xiaojiu pouted and shook her head.
Ren Xingmei was slightly surprised and asked, "Why are you unhappy, Xiaojiu?"
Xiao Jiu pointed at the screen and said, "Both NPCs are dead."
Ren Suo took a look and remembered that in the final boss battle, the player could summon two NPCs to help. Although these two NPCs would prolong the boss's health, they could greatly distract the boss's attention and create opportunities for the player to drink medicine and attack.
It can be said that the existence of these two NPCs greatly reduces the difficulty of the final boss battle.
The reason why Xiaojiu was not happy was that both NPCs died in the battle, leaving only her knight character to defeat the boss alone.
Ren Xingmei found it funny: "The NPCs in this game don't really die. The NPCs you summon are just clones. The death of the clones will not cause the death of the original NPC."
Xiao Jiu blinked and looked at Ren Xingmei, "Really?"
Xiaojiu didn't know about this setting at all, because it was Ren Xingmei who told her that she could summon NPCs. The mean-spirited Ren Suo would never tell Xiaojiu that in this game, you can summon helpers when fighting bosses.
Otherwise, Xiaojiu's game character would have died dozens less times.
"Really? But if you don't like it, you can try it again. Xiaojiu, you know how to play it now, right? Maybe you can clear the level by yourself without summoning helpers."
"Okay, Xiaojiu, try again!"
Ren Xingmei smiled and patted Xiaojiu's head, saying, "It doesn't matter if the NPCs die. They don't affect the plot. It's just a game. Don't force yourself to do it. There are many other fun games."
However, Xiaojiu reloaded the save file and tried not to call for help, defeating the boss alone.
However, Ren Suo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his sister's words.
It's just a game, don't force yourself
There are many other fun games
Time quickly reached 11pm. Seeing that it was getting late, Ren Xingmei said goodbye to them and went to the dormitory. If Xiaojiu was not there, she would definitely stay overnight.
After Ren Suo urged Xiaojiu to take a bath and coaxed her to sleep, he took a leisurely bath, then sat in front of the computer and turned on the Small World game console.
“It’s a small world, and it’s fun.”
Today's power-on notification sound was from a young male voice, but the tone was steady, with a hint of appreciation, as if he wanted to reward Ren Suo with a little red flower.
Ren Suo enters the upside-down world and loads the save file.
The 1,204th boss battle.
Although Ren Suo thought that the maid Xiaosuo should be dead, his body had been obediently repeating the boss battle these days. He tried countless skill combinations, trying to make the maid Xiaosuo die more beautifully.
However, in hundreds of boss battles, the ending never changed.
Seeing Xiaosuo, the maid who had hugged Master Mu, turn into ashes and disappear again, the game popped up a prompt that the task was completed. Ren Suo felt nothing in his heart and even felt a little hungry.
Now, it is past midnight and it is November 19th.
There are 24 hours left until the final deadline for uploading game reviews.
At this moment, he remembered what his sister said: It's just a game, don't force yourself to do it.
"I'll just try to make it."
Even if you play for another 24 hours, there is no chance of a miracle happening.
I have done my best. I have tried my best. There is no hope. Just wait to die. Goodbye.
“Upload a review of the game.”
