Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 282: Hold on Tight, SuperCat! Unbeatable Below the I

Knock knock knock—

As the office door was tapped.

Shen Miaomiao, sitting on the boss chair, sniffed lightly, took a deep breath, then blinked.

After that, she slowly spoke:

“Please co in?”

Click.

Gu Sheng pushed the door open, holding a color-printed sheet as he approached Little Nezha.

He sat down, about to speak, but paused as he noticed Little Nezha’s slightly red-rimd eyes.

“What’s wrong?”

Sniff—

Little Nezha twitched her nose and rubbed her eyes.

“Nothing, I just saw a ga review and was about to find you.”

As she spoke,

Shen Miaomiao swiveled the screen of the all-in-one computer to show Gu Sheng the Yiyou review page.

“This player called SuperCat... such a pity.”

“Is there sothing we can do?”

Exactly!

Just before Gu Sheng knocked on the door, Shen Miaomiao, curious about the reputation and sales of Peak Kingdom, happened to see this review.

Originally, she only wanted to check the player feedback on the ga and then think about how to handle the follow-up projects to minimize losses.

After all, Peak Kingdom had been set with a 100-fold rebate multiplier, with a generous 21 90 day rebate period.

It was obvious that this project was dood to lose money.

They could only focus on its derivative projects to stop further losses.

However,

As soon as she opened the Yiyou review page, the comnt from "SuperCat" jumped out at her.

Shen Miaomiao, a woman with a sensitive heart, couldn’t help but tear up after reading this regretful review.

Even though SuperCat had long since left, Shen Miaomiao still wanted to ask Old Gu if there was anything they could do for this player.

“Even if it’s just a small accessory within our power, or a character biography like Octane’s would be fine,”

Shen Miaomiao looked at Gu Sheng and said:

“What do you think?”

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng opened his mouth, then smiled with relief, pushing the color-printed sheet in his hand toward Little Nezha.

“I ca here to discuss this exact matter...”

......

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

In this era where information flows like a roaring river, SuperCat’s story didn’t attract much dia attention.

But the dia’s neglect didn’t an the players ignored it.

Though it was only a short three days,

SuperCat’s story had already spread throughout the entire Peak Kingdom player base.

Players even created a signature gesture for SuperCat—making a rock hand sign atop their heads, pretending to have cat ears.

“Blessed by SuperCat.”

On this day, as usual, Octane made the signature gesture, then entered the motion-sensing pod.

He suddenly noticed that Peak Kingdom had just undergone a small update.

This update wasn’t big, no new maps or anything, and there wasn’t even a patch note.

“Is this... a bug fix?”

Frowning with suspicion, Octane muttered.

Ding.

As the update completed, Octane logged into the ga.

However!

The next second!

As he entered the ga, spawning in his private locker room,

A new special move unlock notification popped up on the UI!

“What is this...?”

Octane was confused.

Normally, new special move rewards required players to conquer new maps or level up to unlock.

But now, he hadn’t done anything except log in—and yet he unlocked a special move?

For a mont, the livestream chat was full of confusion—

‘Bug?’

‘Isn’t this update supposed to fix bugs? Why did it create one?’

‘Backdoor! This must be Octane’s privilege! Damn internal player!’

‘Hahaha... Unlock move: War Tree Master’

Damn, War Tree Master, hahaha...

“So what exactly is this move?”

...

Amid the crowd’s eager urging, Octane curiously opened the special move’s details—

[Special Move: SuperCat Salute]

[Description: Can be used during any sport, requires making a rock hand sign atop the head, pretending to have cat ears, grants a 230 special move point bonus]

The chat suddenly went silent!

Even Octane himself was stunned for three full seconds.

Then, uproar!

‘Holy crap—SuperCat Salute! Old Gu actually put the SuperCat Salute in the ga!’

‘What the heck!!! It’s even a special move!!!’

‘Now we can do the cat move before every match!’

Aweso! Aweso, Sam!

‘So this little update was about this!’

‘Whoa—I’m kind of touched.’

A company that treats its players as precious treasures is like this.

No wonder, Sam! You’re truly my favorite designer!

.......

However,

Just as the players were shouting in amazent,

Without hesitation, Octane equipped the move and looked up again.

Ding!

Another accessory reward suddenly popped up!

“What?!”

Octane was shocked!

“Is there more?!”

Excitedly, Octane opened another login reward.

Imdiately, a black knit cap with cat ears appeared on the UI!

And the description of this hat caused an even bigger stir among players—

[Helt Appearance: SuperCat Cat Hat]

[Description: Can replace helt appearance. Wearing this accessory and completing the Peak Eight Events challenge will unlock the ultimate Peak Eight Events reward for this round, visible to the entire server]

Boom!!!

The livestream chat exploded!

“Whaaaaaaat???”

“Holy crap! SuperCat’s hat! Ultimate reward!”

“What the heck! Golden Wind actually made a server-wide visible ultimate reward for SuperCat!”

“No way—bro, you’re serious?”

“Little Yellow! Old Thief! Alright, alright, if you’re playing this way, I’ll pay 40 bucks! Five bucks for the ticket? Consider it paid!”

“Alright! You’re aweso! Even though I’m afraid of heights, I’ll top up today!”

“Brothers! Friends! Server-wide reward! What are you waiting for? Let’s charge with SuperCat!”

.....

The entire ga exploded!

Originally, everyone thought that the morial for SuperCat would only be among players.

But unexpectedly,

After a small update,

Golden Wind actually added the player-created SuperCat Salute as a special move in the ga and gifted the SuperCat Cat Hat as a helt appearance accessory!

In fact,

For a company to do this much for a player is already moving enough for the players.

But Golden Wind didn’t stop there.

They even planned a mysterious “Peak Eight Events Ultimate Reward”!

That ans whoever first conquers the Peak Eight Events will not only claim a huge prize from all the entry ticket fees,

But also receive a server-wide announcent of an ultimate mysterious reward!

La.

Wearing the SuperCat hat, a strange feeling welled up inside Octane’s heart.

Maybe because of his bodily shortcomings, Octane couldn’t feel exactly what SuperCat felt in life, but in so ways, they shared the sa suffering.

He deeply understood how resilient a soul one must have to remain optimistic in such a state and leave encouraging words for all players.

Though Death could take his life, it could never seize his blazing, optimistic soul.

And now!

After countless practices, Octane finally stood at the starting point of one of the Peak Eight Events—the Ice Solidification challenge, also SuperCat’s most yearned-for place—

The avalanche speed descent in the Alps.

Adjusting the SuperCat hat on his head, Octane took a deep breath.

Now, we stand here together.

And I will take you with , through this deadliest snow path, to laugh at Death’s incompetence at the finish line.

Slash!

The snow staff was drawn, scattering flying snowflakes.

Octane bent forward, legs slightly inward.

Ahead was a natural snow path with a terrifying near-70-degree slope, winding densely through a thick coniferous forest, then continuing straight to the finish gate, which looked like a tiny grain of millet in the distance.

This was a slope Octane had never tested before.

That coniferous forest was also a death zone he had never experienced.

Indeed, the Ice Solidification challenge deserved its SSS difficulty rating.

Any segnt of this slope placed in other maps would be nearly insurmountable.

Such a perilous challenge,

Yet only one chance.

Just like life.

Only success, no failure.

“Hu—”

He exhaled deeply.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of thousands in the livestream!

Octane slowly raised his hand and made the SuperCat Salute above his head:

“Hold tight! SuperCat!”

With the [ 230 Special Move Points] flashing on the UI, Octane jabbed his snow staff!

La—!!!

Whoosh—!!!

Under the rollercoaster-like steep angle, Octane shot off like a cannonball from the start!

130 kiloters per hour!

Starting speed 130!

But!

At this mont, Octane dared not slow down; instead, he fiercely swung his snow staff, stabbing fiercely at both sides, desperately accelerating himself!

Because he knew.

Soon, an unprecedented colossal natural disaster would be right behind him...

Rumble—boom—!!!

With a thunderous, muffled roar echoing across the Alpine summit,

From the unique Peak Eight Events spectator cara, Octane’s back was engulfed by rolling snow mist like tsunami waves, enormous and roaring!

The avalanche was so massive and terrifying!

Before this apocalyptic disaster, Octane speeding ahead looked like a tiny ant, utterly insignificant!

“I’m screwed!!!”

The livestream chat instantly exploded:

“Is this really an avalanche descent? I thought 'avalanche' just ant skiing fast like an avalanche!”

“Damn it! This is terrifying!”

“Woah, the avalanche is so fast! It’s about to catch Octane!”

“Don’t panic, don’t panic. There’s a jump ahead; Octane has a chance to shake off the avalanche...”

“Here it cos!”

.......

Bang—!!!

Following the natural jump, Octane soared into the air!

Like an eagle spreading wings, a streak of bright green soared!

Behind this bright green was a sky-covering, unprecedentedly fierce avalanche tide!

Rumble!

The terrifying roaring echoed in the mountains.

Yet that bright green was utterly fearless, his body arching like a nimble cat, drawing an elegant arc through the air, spinning and flipping a full rotation, even doing a SuperCat Salute in tribute, then plunged violently into the snow path!

“OHHHHHHHH—!”

Insane, I’m blown away!!!

“Pulling off stunts in front of an avalanche! Power Kid awakened!”

“No wonder it’s the Power Kid himself! Damn, he’s so daring!”

“Damn! Octane’s condition today is peak level!”

“Unbeatable below the Immortals!”

“Aweso!”

The hype is on! The hype is on!!!

“Co on, Power Kid!!!”

......

Avalanche! Like a towering tidal wave!

Octane! Like an arrow shot from a bow!

As wave after wave of frenzied screams broke out, Octane’s eyes sharpened, gathering all his core strength, breaking the world record with a speed of 253.8 kiloters per hour, then dived into the dense conifer forest!

Whoosh!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Whooosh—!!!

Massive cedar branches brushed past him, leaving trails of afterimages!

At such a terrifying speed, every dodge for Octane relied solely on muscle mory and instinct!

Yes, the speed had already exceeded what his brain could process!

Within less than 0.1 seconds of reaction ti, Octane had to ensure every ski board move was precise, every reaction flawless!

Otherwise!

He would crash headfirst into the towering cedar trees at nearly 254 kiloters per hour, then be instantly buried by the raging avalanche behind!

Adrenaline surged!

Heart rate soared to 160!

His wildly beating heart pumped scorching blood, singing the anthem of courage!

Boom—!

As Octane flew through the dense forest with snow mist trailing like wings!

The livestream atmosphere reached its peak!

Ahead was the steepest slope in the entire Peak Challenge!

Four and a half seconds of airti were enough for Octane to make a breathtaking leap.

The avalanche behind him would be blocked by the huge snow slope after passing through the forest.

And now!

Octane was ready.

In front of hundreds of thousands of witnesses, Octane suddenly slid backward, charging toward the final slope!

Instantly!

The audience gasped!

“Oh...

255 kiloters sliding backward, Power Father is seriously terrifying...

That move is even scarier...

If I’m not mistaken, Octane unlocked this move on the highest difficulty slope.

Damn... it’s that aerial grab board spin with body rotation and flip?”

“Ah—???”

“What the hell is that...

Can a human do that?”

“Oh oh oh oh here it cos here it cos—”

.....

Slash—!!!

With snow splashing!

The overwhelming avalanche roared like a natural symphony behind the soaring Octane!

Leaping into the sky, Octane perford the SuperCat Salute special move again.

Then grabbing the board with one hand, like a dancer soaring through the sky, he spun his body, sliding in an elegant arc, performing a jaw-dropping dance.

Twisting, flipping, spinning.

At this mont, Octane, with his imperfect body, seed to have finally found himself, carrying SuperCat’s soul together, roaming in the majestic snowy Alps.

An indomitable soul shining brighter than the sun, a song of courage shaking the heavens louder than the avalanche!

[ 12,855 points]

Huff!

As the terrifying score flas blazed, Octane’s livestream even suffered unprecedented lag!

The overwhelming barrage of chat comnts was even scarier than the avalanche itself, exploding in this tiny livestream room!

‘W--T--F--!!!’

‘OHHHHHHHHH--!!!’

“Ah??? Holy crap???”

‘Spin 1,000... 1,620 degrees???’

What the hell!!!

Buzz—

Insane!

Wild howls erupted in the livestream!

Octane, who perfectly crossed the finish line, looked back at the avalanche halted behind the big snow slope, kneeling unable to rise!

Heartbreaking screams mixed with tears of joy stirred emotions in all watching!

A breathtaking leap!

Even the avalanche had to submit!

Next mont!

A server-wide announcent popped up on all players’ UI!

[“Ice Solidification” Global First Clear Achieved!]

And Octane, under everyone’s gaze, raised his right hand high, making cat ears atop his head, tears streaming down!

“SuperCat—!!!”

“We did it!!!”
