Masked Affections in Cyberspace Chapter 7

Who are you

As soon as the information about the duel came out, although it was still afternoon, Ethan Xing's live broadcast room was already full of people. Netizens who wanted to watch the fun had already squatted in the live broadcast room early and prepared various recording equipment, hoping to see the legendary host who had rolled over.

Xingge's die-hard fans took the opportunity to recommend their own anchor, and the virtual live broadcast room was soon filled with Xingge's various game screenshots and videos. It has to be said that netizens always have the ability to entertain themselves.

Netizen A: "To be honest, I look forward to their meeting again tonight."

"This is the first time I've had a fight with someone since Xinge started live streaming. I'm so excited." Netizen B said, "Really, I would say that these two people are not destined to be together yet."

Netizen C: "Am I the only one who wants to watch the fight seriously?"

In the corner of the live broadcast room, the rich boss of yesterday, Jason Sheng, was squatting secretly. Jason Sheng spent half a day watching all the game videos of Xingge and successfully transformed into a die-hard fan of Xingge. Jason Sheng, who had been in the online world for a whole day and didn't know about the battle, was secretly planning to log in at night to get close to the popular anchor and chase stars online.

At this time, Ethan Xing was still immersed in the excitement of the battle. He forgot about the inhibitor that his brother had someone send to him, and also forgot that today was the day he was supposed to be injected with the inhibitor.

There is a reason why Ethan Xing has become a popular anchor of Xinhuo. When he plays games, he pays attention to the visual effects of the strikes, and he plays beautifully in almost every game. In addition, as a game anchor who never uses a real-life online image, he cannot succeed without solid gaming skills.

Although it was embarrassing, Ethan Xing still admitted that he did not play well in the previous match. In addition to being in poor condition, he did underestimate his opponent. The opponent did not look like an experienced player, but acted like a newcomer. Losing to a newcomer was indeed his mistake.

But it is a fact that the opponent won in yesterday's PK. Xing Ying clicked on the video with the most forwarded comments on the forum and began to analyze yesterday's game. The person who recorded the video was obviously in his live broadcast room yesterday. The angle of the video was very good, and one could see his movements and skills clearly, as well as the opponent's movements.

Xing Yan watched the video from beginning to end, and then from the perspective of others, he saw himself go from being arrogant at the beginning to half-kneeling on the ground with his health bar running out, and the two of them fell to the ground in a tangle of love.

Xing Ying: ... Why even he felt that something was not right.

Ethan Xing lay there with his head in his hands for a while, then mustered up the courage to study the video again. The opponent was unfamiliar with the game mechanics and skills, but in the virtual reality battle, the opponent showed a combat awareness that was better than many people, especially in the second half of the battle. The opponent could obviously predict many of his actions and dodge or attack in time. The opponent was very powerful, but if he made good use of the skills provided by the wilderness, he might not be defeated.

Ethan Xing held his big rabbit teacup and turned on the holographic image in the room, watching yesterday's video over and over again. He did not ignore the teasing in the other person's eyes at the end, and the surprise when he saw his eyes turn red.

He suddenly remembered the heartbeat he heard when he logged out of the game yesterday. For some reason, Xing Yan suddenly felt eager for tonight's battle.

When exiting the Wilderness Game Forum, Xing Ying accidentally touched a cocoa bean floating next to a video, and a cocoa bean flew towards the video.

Xing Ying: ...Give me back my beans.

He didn't see clearly what he smashed, and he didn't know if it was the pvp video he was watching over and over again.

In the Wild Game Forum, cocoa beans are equivalent to a forum currency. Throwing out cocoa beans means appreciation and recognition of the content. The worst thing is that you can’t pick up the cocoa beans you throw out.

Half a minute later, someone with sharp eyes

A netizen found a cocoa bean with the name of the carrier pigeon in the cocoa bean bowl in the video, and the carrier pigeon's homepage went viral again. Ethan Xing, who was awakened by the boiling pot again, realized that the clip he liked was the clip on the other end of the netizen's website.

The netizen edited together his old game videos and yesterday's battle videos, added some music, and created a drama of love, hate and vengeance.

At the beginning of the video, he looked at the other person with red eyes.

At the end of the video, he leans on the other person's heart.

Beautiful love.

Ethan Xing closed the cocoa bean interface, tried to cover up his mistake, and ran away.

Many people were laughing wildly under that clip.

"Did the pigeon click the wrong button?" someone asked. "Is the pigeon watching yesterday's video?"

"Impossible." The author of the clip denied it.

"That means they have developed feelings for each other. What can we do? I'm really looking forward to seeing them again tonight." Someone rubbed his hands.

At 8 p.m., Big Rabbit jumped onto the stage of the virtual live broadcast room on time and was startled by the crowd of people in the room. It was obvious that there were not only his fans but also many onlookers sitting in the audience.

The live broadcast room was bustling with activity, and netizens with various virtual images began to communicate with each other.

"Make way, make way, give me a seat with a good view, I'm a long-time fan." Someone squeezed to the front row holding a basket of carrots for reward, "I have carrots, let me go to the front row."

"Don't new fans have human rights?" some people are dissatisfied.

"If you're not a fan, please stand back, it's too crowded."

"The front row is selling exclusive clips, which include the first meeting between the carrier pigeon and the boss yesterday. The video is of high quality and can be loaded and watched in holographic format. Come if you want it."

"One serving, one serving."

Obviously, what Ethan Xing didn't know was that the live broadcast room tonight was a little different from usual. In addition to his group of fans, there were also many new CP fans, as well as gaming reporters who came to laugh at him.

"Yesterday was a mistake." The big rabbit jumped onto the game icon and jumped twice.

[Blow it.]

[The anchor keeps on bragging. I will see how he will fail today.]

[Is the anchor still seducing today? I’m here for this, hehehe.]

[You entered the wrong area before. This is the game live broadcast area.]

[Come on, pigeon brother, you can see a handsome brother today.]

With the belief of avenging his previous shame and a little hesitation, Xing Yan logged into the game wilderness. He appeared at the place where he logged off yesterday. The scenery was still the same as yesterday, with golden sunlight in the desert, towering golden characters, and a huge crowd of people.

There is a sea of   people around ---

They all came to watch the fun.

"Wow, a carrier pigeon." Someone rushed forward excitedly, "I knew I could catch a carrier pigeon here, and I touched the real thing!"

"As a PVP star anchor, how did you feel after you lost to an unknown PVE player yesterday?"

Xing Ying had a headache. He looked around and realized that the time had come. The person from yesterday didn't seem to be around.

He felt inexplicably disappointed.

Maybe the other party really didn't see his post, or maybe the other party didn't take him seriously at all, didn't regard him as an opponent, and didn't take this challenge seriously. His deeds were known to everyone in the federation, but the person he was waiting for didn't come. As a child who loves face, Xing Yan's self-esteem suffered a serious blow.

We agreed to have a fair fight.

[Let’s go, the boss is not coming anymore, it’s boring, I’m a fan of the boss, I don’t want to watch your anchor.]

[Please go away. You are not welcome in our live broadcast room.

]

[Am I the only one who feels like the pigeons are a little disappointed?]

[You are not alone in front.]

The administrator of the game wilderness obviously did not expect that such a large number of people would gather in this map tonight. As more and more people came to watch, the map became a little stuck. No matter how powerful the server was, it could not support a map that was filled with nearly half of the population of the wilderness.

Facts have proved that even in the interstellar age, holographic games will still lag.

"Can some people go down? It's stuck." Someone next to Ethan Xing said, "What's wrong with this map tonight?"

"Why don't you leave? It's so late."

"Oh my god, my head is stuck." someone exclaimed.

"Whose head is this? It's rolling at my feet. Take it away quickly."

"Oh Sh!t, I can't feel my feet anymore."

A group of players with missing arms and legs were groping around for their spare parts. For a moment, the desert map was very lively, and the role-playing adventure game in the wilderness instantly turned into a horror game.

Netizens in the live broadcast room: ...

What a visual feast.

There are always surprises in the live broadcast room of Xingge.

Ethan Xing was also feeling uncomfortable because of the jam. The game wilderness was directly connected to the consciousness, and it was really uncomfortable when it got stuck. It was normal to get stuck to the point of losing consciousness.

There was constant noise all around, it was very noisy. Ethan Xing stretched out his hand and tapped in the air, opening the game's map switching interface.

The person he had arranged to fight didn't show up, and the map was too laggy, so he had no choice but to leave. He was too arrogant, thinking that if he posted on social media, the other party would see his invitation to fight.

After all, he and the guy from yesterday were not destined to be together.

Before Ethan Xing's fingertips touched the new map, he heard excited shouts from people around him. He looked up and saw countless weirdos with broken arms and legs in front of him automatically making way for a path. At the end of the path, under the glittering pyramid, stood the person Ethan Xing was waiting for.

The man was wearing the most luxurious equipment just like yesterday. At the end of the road, under the attention of many netizens in the live broadcast room, he walked towards Ethan Xing step by step.

In the stuck map, under the hot sun of the desert, Xing Ying seemed to hear his own heartbeat.

[Why do I feel like this doesn’t feel like a fight, but more like love.]

[Those in front, please get out. We are here to watch the anchors fight. Can you guys consider the time and place for your CP?]

[I don’t care, I want to record this scene, and I want to record the card too.]

Ethan Xing didn't care about the comments. This was a duel, and he hadn't thought about what to say to the other party. He saw the other party walking towards him in a lag, and then he stumbled and knelt on one knee in front of him.

Something is wrong.

This is progressing a bit fast.

Ethan Xing said calmly: "Which...which map?"

However, when the other party looked up, there was no murderous intent in his eyes as there was yesterday. Xing Ying felt as if he saw stars in his eyes.

"God, I finally see you!"

"Master, let's take a photo together!"

Ethan Xing: "?"

Who? Who are you?

People watching around: "?"

Everyone in the live broadcast room: "?"

What happened? Has the cheat my boss gave me expired?

Ethan Xing opened his blank eyes in confusion, and was finally stuck by the overloaded server.

In the virtual live broadcast room, a big rabbit sat decadently on a pile of radishes, listening to netizens talk about what had just happened.
