Chapter 15: Night Legend
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The sun was slowly but steadily gliding toward the horizon.
By the ti it turned from dazzling yellow to a dim orange, a slithering shadow finally appeared in the fog, before the Black Serpent returned from its hunting grounds with a plumper body.
Here it cos...
Ji Ye watched as his eyes glead with concentration.
Click, click.
He briefly thought about his plan and loaded five special bolts into the Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow in a certain order.
However, at this point in ti, Ji Ye only raised the Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow in his hand and aid it at the Black Serpent from afar. The arrowtip followed its figure, but he held back from imdiately attacking.
This was because if he attacked too early, and the Black Serpent noticed sothing amiss and imdiately returned to the fog, then the settlent mission would most likely fail!
And yet... he couldn’t wait for too long, either. If the Black Serpent returned to the pool where it could control the water, his trump card—Fla Burst Bolt—would be useless.
There was a rocky, open area without any cover that the Black Serpent had to cross before returning to its lair. That was the perfect spot for him to comnce his assault.
...
While Ji Ye was patiently aiming at his prey with his loaded crossbow inside the Land of Inheritance amidst the setting sun, Earth’s Yang City had already embraced nightfall.
Previously, citizens at this hour would usually hang out at nightclubs or food stalls to begin their night lives, or be in bed, chatting, reading a web novel, or watching a movie on their phones.
Recently, however, all of them had picked up a new habit, which was to read the “Land of Inheritance” forum managed by the Confederate governnt.
The global population had almost reached 10 billion. More than a third of them had already registered as users.
In order not to clutter everything up, the forum had been divided into different sections based on provinces and cities.
“Man...”
Inside an expensive apartnt room, Su Nongying had just had a bath and was enjoying a cup of coffee on a sofa, after wrapping her black hair in a white towel.
However, she did not log onto the Inheritance forum imdiately. Instead, she habitually launched the “Balibali” app on her phone!
“Damn. No updates.”
Disappointed, she checked the personal page of her one and only favorite strear she followed, but without finding any updates.
Su Nongying’s expression was filled with disappointnt, showing even more worry.
This strear, whose ID was “Night Legend,” always posted videos that captured his extre sports challenges, or survival shows in harsh conditions such as scorching deserts or snow mountains.
Su Nongying may be a woman, but this did not prevent her from liking the exciting videos created by Night Legend.
Probably because of her taxing and dull life which was all about work, company, friends, schoolmates and age... watching those survival videos made her feel exceptionally relaxed after a day’s toll.
The dangerous slides along a bumpy slope shown by a shaky cara, high cliffs above a bottomless abyss, bird’s eye view captured from the tip of skyscrapers... Sotis, Su Nongying found her heart racing when watching such scenes and would often look away while covering her mouth.
And yet the thrill was real. At least she could hardly find anything else equally exciting from other types of sports.
After watching every new video uploaded by Night Legend, she would feel showered with excitent from head to toe. Of course, she made sure that she liked, shared and supported every video as well.
Right then, however, the most recent video she had watched was from over three months ago, whereas the longest break Night Legend had ever taken between challenges never went beyond the two-month mark.
Su Nongying clicked the last video again to check whether Night Legend had answered to any of the comnts left by other viewers.
“Is this strear all right? When is the next one coming out?”
“Could an alien have kidnapped him?”
“Night, please! I need an update to watch when eating!”
“Hehe, could he have been hit by lightning while out in the wilderness like in those stories and traveled back in ti? Night, can you post a video about those ancient tis? I want to see the first emperor of China and Zhao Feiyan!”
“Those two weren’t even from the sa dynasty. Go read more web novels if you aren’t good at history...”
Most of the earlier comnts were either joking or demanding for updates as usual.
But like always, there were people who seed truly worried about Night Legend’s safety since his videos were filled with risk.
“He’s been offline for so long. Did sothing happen for real? Does anyone live in Yang City and knows his address?”
Su Nongying wanted to post a reply and tell them that she was living in Yang City.
But... she had never t Night Legend in real life before, let alone know his address in the city!
“Sh*t! I was hearing weird things just now. A voice in my brain said sothing about the Land of Inheritance...”
“You aren’t dreaming, dude! I got it too!”
“Yeah. I’m in Mountain City!”
“I’m from another Sea City. I also heard it!”
As Night Legend neglected his channel for a long ti, fewer and fewer people were leaving their comnts.
But about six weeks before, things had taken a big turn.
It was because of the notification that the Land of Inheritance had been activated. It sounded in the minds of the people around the world. After the initial doubts and hallucinations, and after confirmation, many people didn’t panic. Instead, they imdiately took out their phones and logged onto social dia platforms to express their “surprise”. This kind of situation was probably similar to imdiately taking a photo and posting it on their WeChat Monts the mont they were in a car accident.
The comnt section remained inactive after that day.
Half a month ago, the Confederate governnt declared that only the top elites and experts of their fields were selected to enter the Land of Inheritance.
That was when the viewers of Night Legend suddenly rushed back.
“I’ll tell you all a secret, I know where Night disappeared to!”
“Co on! We all know, don’t we? He’s definitely been selected to enter the Land of Inheritance!”
“We should’ve known earlier! Knowing his skills, he has more chances than most people in this world to get picked!”
“I know right? What did I say? He’s a professional! it’s world-class! My words are proven!”
The comnts were filled with excitent. Many people believed that the Night Legend was definitely selected to enter the Land of Inheritance, which was why he had been inactive for so long!
The Land of Inheritance!
But knowing this didn’t help Su Nongying feel much better. Instead, the unconcealed look of anxiety was still exposed under her thick eyebrows.
Unlike most people, who regarded the Land of Inheritance as an amazing place and considered it a great honor to beco a tester—
she had personally seen a “beta player” who had almost suffered a ntal collapse after encountering a death incident in the Land of Inheritance. She knew that it was filled with more challenges and danger than extre sports!
Is he in trouble?
“Stop it, losers. Are you all in heat or sothing? Are you so full of yourself?
“Just based on the standards of the dostic amateurs in extre sports, can Night Legend be considered a top expert? Is he qualified to be chosen to enter the Land of Inheritance?”
“Keep bragging! Any random professional overseas would be able to leave him in the dust! There is no such thing as professional extre sports in Chidragon!”
However, as a strear with more than 100,000 followers, there were naturally so anti-fans. A person with the ID “Caesar X” suddenly sent a series of replies.
“Holy f**k, it’s this guy again!”
“Night Legend, you there? Ban him already.”
“Co on, Night usually doesn’t manage comnts. And it’s not like he can do it from the Land of Inheritance. Just report this bastard.”
In the face of such comnts of “the grass being greener on the other side”, many people were peeved. However, as Night Legend wasn’t around, all they could do was report the comnt and temporarily silence him.
“Haha, why? Are you guys still going to stubbornly insist?”
“Night Legend hasn’t shown up till now, which ans that even if he were lucky enough to be chosen to enter the land of inheritance, he definitely didn’t pass the trial. Furthermore, because you guys are flattering him too much, he’s afraid that it’ll be embarrassing if the truth is revealed. In my opinion, he probably won’t be online in the future... Mocking.JPG.”
However, in today’s latest comnt, “Caesar X”, who had just finished serving his ban, appeared again. He spoke smugly and even uploaded a few provocative and mocking emojis!
The trial in the Land of Inheritance had ended for several days, but Night Legend had not yet made a comnt.
[A chosen one in this city is now eligible to stream in the Land of Inheritance. Watch the stream now?]
Just as Su Nongying could not control the anger in her heart and was about to refute the anti-fan, a ssage suddenly popped up in her head.
