Sword Among Us

Chapter 317: New Model!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As expected, with Happy’s confidence and Xu Xin’s support, the Three Lonely Wolves chose to send an email and contact the official developers again. Once they told them Happy’s thoughts, the official developers only hesitated for a moment before they agreed with his demands. However, they also put forward a condition—they were to be the ones who will handle the specific operations, such as setting the price.

Happy knew about this as well. The official developers had a specific think tank that would estimate the psychological pricing. It would bring about the greatest benefit possible to the company and the uploader, so Happy agreed to it without hesitation.

Once both sides came to an agreement, Happy no longer needed to personally handle the remaining matters. The official developers from the game soon uploaded the battle at Common Reed Bank and pinned it at the top of the forum. They also instantly revised the website and opened up another website that contained battle replays that could only be viewed after the players paid for it.

Compared to the price Happy thought they would set, the price the official developers set exceeded his expectations.

It was not too expensive, but it was definitely not cheap!

50 RMB!

In the beginning, not many people responded to the video

After all, they had become used to free battle replays and did not want to pay for it. Thus, they chose to observe the situation so that they could slowly digest the unique features of that different system.

The official developers had clearly been planning the pay-to-view system for a long time. They explained everything about it clearly, such as how the players could get a Rare Edition choice once they logged into the game. If they chose that function, they could buy any battle replay they wanted and project it. Then, they could experience another person’s senses as they went through the battle.

The website was very magnificent!

And the words used in the advertisement were also incredibly tempting.

Quite a number of students from the University of South City quickly chose to experience the battle once they received the news. A crazed trend of experience the battle at Common Reed Bank stirred up at South China Martial Arts Ranking Board.

The process was rather long, but after the sudden appearance of pirates on Happy’s ship, everything moved like a movie.

Its main character was Happy, who appeared at the perfect time at every location, and everyone got to see his adventure through his eyes!

Then, they saw General Yang’s plot. Happy alone had to face countless soldiers who suddenly appeared among the people at Common Reed Bank. Then, the Murong Clan’s fleet experienced a shocking change!

“What the heck?!”

“Are they shooting a movie now?”

The astonishing change that happened to the cargo ships and the very real sounds of springs and triggers allowed the people to experience the feeling of their blood boiling and their emotions surging when the battle broke out!

Happy had jumped on the bridge wing and faced countless martial artists by himself. His actions allowed countless people to experience the great confidence of the strongest player on the Famous People Rank. They held their breaths, and the great heroic feeling of fighting against multiple people alone surged in their hearts to the point that they almost exploded...

‘Kill!’

Everyone’s field of vision changed very quickly.

Happy satisfied everyone’s desires when he leapt from one ship to another. He charged forward in a rampage and killed madly. His actions dazzled the viewers, and they were lost in wonder. It was as if they were the ones who were invincible in the crowd.

Of course, there were also many elites who experienced the battle replay. Most of them were shocked by how Happy chained his attacks and astounded by the medicinal pills he took. It was clear that they were the exorbitantly-priced Dew Pills.

They were shocked, but they also discovered multiple secrets!

The various discoveries made them feel very touched. They felt as if they had bought something worth their money.

The hype did not die down then though.

The ships were badly damaged. When Happy had to defend against a siege, everyone felt a great wave of solemnity wash over them, and they thought that they were about to die as a martyr...

But Happy did something that made everyone descend into frenzy again.

Alone, he charged out of the encirclement and rushed to a group of Life and Death elites in the distance.

The distressing sight of him rushing forward with an indomitable spirit affected everyone!

The dazzling sight, level-headed strategy, and magnificent skills caused everyone to watch from the start to the end with bated breath. When General Yang died and everyone lost their will to fight before Happy... the battle replay ended!

*****

It was more than an hour long!

Many people thought back on it, and an unprecedented, crazed wave stirred up in the forum. They fell over each other to discuss how unexpectedly good the battle replay was, and how valuable it was. They also spoke of their discoveries and how moved they were by the battle replay.

The posts that filled the forum all talked about the same topic!

Any post that tried to bring up another topic was immediately drowned out by a thousand other posts right after they emerged, and they could no longer be found.

The grand spectacle intrigued the many people who had been watching from the sidelines!

It was especially so when they learned that they could experience something that no normal battle replay could show them. After hearing that, a continuous stream of people decided to pay to experience the battle...

In fact, when some players asked others whether they had experienced the battle through Happy’s senses and received a “no” as their answer, the person who had not experienced the battle would get scorned.

“Tsk tsk, those lunatics that are the official developers are indeed good, they actually integrated everything until it feels like an action film. I even want to experience it the second time after I experienced it once. I refuse to believe that it won’t be a popular item on sale...”

Once Bai Lang and the others logged off the game, they began talking about it excitedly with their friends who had come to crash at their dorm.

“It’s mainly because Happy is good, right?”

“That’s right!”

“Hehe, that’s right. Damn it, Happy’s definitely going to be rich! Tomorrow, I might as well resign from my post as developer and be his manager,” Qi Ci joked through gritted teeth.

Chen Fan decided to be a wet blanket.

“Forget it, we’ll definitely not be able to. We actually agreed to the deal when they offered us a 10% share in the profit when we could have gotten 50% share. Happy won’t be at ease if he lets us handle public relations. Xu Xin might be able to though.”

Qi Ci and Bai Lang cackled and nodded.

Their other friends in the dorm looked at each other at a loss. They did not understand what the three wolves were talking about.

*****

When Xu Yao took off her helmet in the University of South China, she placed it quietly and brought her legs to her chest, then wrapped her hands around them. There was deep befuddlement in her eyes.

After some time, her phone rang, snapping her out of her reverie.

Before, when she saw the name on the phone, she would be very happy, and she would even look forward to it slightly. But right then, when she saw that name, she felt as if a great weight had been placed on her heart, and she even felt a little uneasy.

Still, she pressed the receive button.

“Hello...”

Her voice was very soft, and there was even a faint quiver that she did not notice.

The person on the other end of the phone noticed her abnormal tone, however. He was silent for a while. Then, a gentle and pleasant male voice traveled into her ears.

“What’s wrong? Are you sick?”

“No...” Xu Yao touched her slightly cold arm and sucked in a deep breath before she returned to her usual calmness. “What is it?”

“It’s the same thing.” The tone on the other side changed. “Your progress has been too slow lately. Things have changed again. Not only is Happy secretly supporting Beautiful Robes Faction and making them stronger swiftly, he is also thinking about supporting another sect. He seems to want to set up his foundation in Hubei’s Baokang.”

“I’ve heard about this as well. It does seem to be true.”

“But that’s not all. Right now, he’s working with the official developers to promote the walkthrough system through the pay-to-view battle replays. By the looks of it, it’s very successful. This person is not only ambitious, but also very reluctant to be drawn to anyone’s side...”

The voice on the phone turned very cold, and Xu Yao’s heart shuddered. “Are you saying...”

“We have a new plan now!”
