_1 Chapter 1094: Chapter 1006 That’s Right, This is a Grass Cutting Ga!
_1 “So many BOSSes!
Finally, we can do so serious killing!”
“What in the world is that chicken?!”
“Wait, what about my younger sister?”
“Can we still go to Luoyang City like before?
It’s not just going to be reduced to one public map, right?
I haven’t finished visiting the brothel and the potteries!
If it’s a public map…
...
It’s a bit embarrassing!”
“Embarrassing my ass!
Our dormitory team building activities are all taking place at the brothel now!”
…
The players were passionately discussing their interests in various places such as the comnt section, live broadcast room, forum, etc.
The key term “cultivation” was particularly prominent!
“Chang’an” had elents of cultivation since its first chapter, everyone knew that little sister went to cultivate with Li Bai.
But there has been no such opportunity for players in the ga, even in the second chapter, with various experts gathering in Chang’an providing players with further enhancents, cultivation still seed far away.
At most, so items had a taste of cultivation.
But now, judging by the battle between Shirley and Anloshan in the trailer, it is clearly an epic showdown of gods and demons!
The aftershock of their collision had cut off the road from the city to the Imperial City, turning it into a huge pit.
Even the Luo River changed its course because of it.
To defeat such invincible BOSSes, the players surely can’t be too weak, right?
They can’t expect the players to use a hero’s power to fight against a demon god-level opponent, right?
So, the third chapter, cultivation!
It’s a done deal!
Looking at the optimistic comnts of the live-strear community in the live broadcast room, Yi and Super Tomato were at a loss for words for a while.
Mainly because Cloud Dream was being way too crafty, the trailer had no live demonstration of combat, just a “CG cutscene” of a NPC fighting a BOSS in the “past”.
The tendency to mislead was too obvious!
What are they even saying?
[Pleasant Gaming]!
Thinking about his painful experience of being beaten by two BOSSes for seven hours, just seeing these two words made Yi feel a tingling sensation in his scalp, feeling uncomfortable all over.
Pleasant gaming?
For the BOSSes, it might be indeed pleasant!
Super Tomato’s experience was even more profound than Yi’s.
Yesterday, while Yi was leading the team to fight in Pandora, Super Tomato was not present – he had logged off early to push through the plot in “Dark Soul”.
He did not foolishly continue head-on battles with the BOSS on Sky Street, instead, he took a detour to explore other directions.
And then…
He ca across even more sinister mobs and traps!
Even because of dying 250 tis, a new feature was unlocked: changing the text that appears after death – that is, that bloody [Dead]!
You can only change the wording, but not the color or font.
Super Tomato was utterly confused.
He couldn’t figure out: why would Cloud Dream add such a feature?
Although he was baffled, he still changed the [Dead] to another sound-making Chinese character –
[Ah]!
Even though they were a bit speechless about the viewers’ blind optimism, due to confidentiality restrictions, Super Tomato and Yi could only watch helplessly as the viewers’ interpretation of “Dark Soul” beca more and more deviant.
Soone even suggested an outrageous idea – “Pull all the BOSSes in one wave and show off so skills”.
It made them twitch.
As for their previous hints that the “ga is very difficult”, it was now completely laughed off by the live-strear community:
“To protect secrecy, you staged this elaborate charade to deceive us only to be back-stabbed by the official announcent the next day.
I feel sorry for you two.”
“Exactly, I had suspicions yesterday.
Two of them said it’s hard and two of them said it’s pretty.
Obviously, sothing was off!
Turns out they were just acting!”
“Especially, Victoria.
She couldn’t help laughing midway through her own performance.
How could we be fooled?”
…
Yi sighed and admitted: “Well, we really couldn’t fool you guys.
Yes, the ga is actually very satisfying indeed.”
Victoria nodded in agreent: “Ah, yes, yes, yes!”
After these influential strears made these statents, the vaguely rumoured whispers originated from other closed beta test players that the new ga was difficult dissipated rapidly and even the narrative started to shift in the opposite direction.
Soon, a real-life instance of “Three n make a tiger” began to unfurl—
“Did you hear?
‘Chang’an: Dark Soul’ is an action-packed ga, admitted by several closed beta players from Daxia!”
“Foreigners are daring.
I have seen a gaming dia from France openly leaking that ‘Dark Soul’ is a lawnmower ga!
They’re not afraid of being sued by Cloud Dream!”
“Let share a huge secret with you: my cousin is studying in Daxia.
Their residence is less than one kiloter away from Cloud Dream.
Overheard ‘Chang’an’ developnt team mbers, in a restaurant near the Cloud Dream Headquarters, longing for the ga to be released soon, as they think players will have a blast!”
“My aunt’s nephew’s son’s classmate studies in the UK.
He personally heard his classmate say that soone befriended so mbers of the developnt team at Cloud Dream Headquarters and got a key intel: ‘Dark Soul’s’ developnt aid to make the players have a blast!”
…
Pieces of information, first internally consud and then exported, recycled repeatedly, combined with the chaotic reposts of the dia and self-dia, made the sources of information increasingly confusing and difficult to verify.
Only the unverifiable news kept being repeated until it nearly beca a common understanding.
The evolution of this public opinion left Randall and Fred with their heads numb.
Especially during this process, the strength of the characters controlled by the 3000 test players gradually increased with ti, decreasing the frequency of deaths.

They began to feel uneasy about the difficulty survey after the end of the internal beta…
Players seizing every opportunity to stir trouble and not sparing others from the sufferings they’ve endured, this kind of behavior heavily skewed towards chaotic and evil, Randall was well aware!
The previous ‘Hunter: Call of the Wilderness’ [4 tis the poop flavor] incident is unforgettable in his lifeti!
So on Sunday, Randall finally couldn’t hold back and contacted Lincoln, suggesting not to wait until the end of the internal test, but to conduct the questionnaire today or tomorrow.
He felt this was very necessary.
Now the players all start to think that ‘Dark Soul’ is a lawnmower ga!
If everyone enters the ga with the psychological expectation of cultivation, mowing, and unparalleled battles, when faced with the current difficulty of BOSS, there might be tens of millions of players getting traumatised on the day!
However, Lincoln comforted him: “Don’t worry, everything will be fine.”
“I’m about to post a live demo video later.
When players see the combat screen, they will realise that this is not a cultivation ga.”
Lincoln’s words made Randall feel a little relieved.
After ‘Dark Soul’ released the trailer, the official account of ‘Chang’an’ also, customary to its tradition, entered the promotional rhythm—releasing so assets unhurriedly every day to keep the discussion among the players heated.
However, the live demo that players were most looking forward to was taken over by Lincoln.
According to the original plan, the first live demo would not be released until next week.
Now, because of the unusually distortive predictions from the outside, Lincoln advanced its release to this Sunday— a reasonable adjustnt to correct the wrong impressions of the players.
Moreover, for Lincoln, this was a rare instance of working overti on the weekend!
This made Randall feel sowhat relieved.
However, this sense of relief ca to an abrupt halt when he saw the content of Lincoln’s posted live demo—
[No potions·No BUFFs·No items·Zero damage·Fast Kill of the King Kong Ape X A Street in the South Market]
Randall stared at this title for a long while, then only managed to squeeze out a sound from the depths of his soul:
“What?”
