Echoes of the Revers Chapter 226

Chapter 226: Two-Hit Trailer Combo

⊙ Just-Released Piping Hot Hack Tour Trailer.avi

The reveal of the 'Reverse City—forrly Night City—' trailer was incredibly sudden. It could even be described as a bolt from the blue.

Originally, fa is important for the success and failure of personal broadcast content, and even more so for collaborative content, yet they suddenly threw out a trailer without even dropping any hints.

It was behavior that showed confidence that no matter when they announced it, it would be instantly copied across 'Reverse Planet'-related communities and climb straight to the popular posts.

Of course, considering the treatnt the 'Hack Tour' content currently received among 'Reverse Planet' users, that couldn't be called arrogance.

They were already boasting trendous buzz from all kinds of issues, and had firmly imprinted their existence through events like the SSR Cup tournant and the pre-release raid.

For anyone who enjoyed 'Reverse Planet', it would be stranger not to know about it—that was the 'Hack Tour' content.

(Reverse City Trailer Video)

Just watch it thinking you're being fooled lol it's really insane ????

Indeed, the first post announcing the 'Reverse City' trailer entered the popular posts, proving that perception correct.

Frankly speaking, it felt like they could control the community at will with just a few teasing words, never mind a trailer.

'Let's see just how amazing it is.'

'If it's just hype again, 500 tis the hate comnts.'

A single video, and the review that it was "insane."

What those who played the video as if bewitched saw was a truly insane video.

Dong—!

A heavy bell sound echoing simultaneously with the video's start.

What was revealed as dawn swept away the draped shadows was a massive clock tower. Like Big Ben, London's famous landmark.

Then, the mont the clock tower's second hand, which had been moving rapidly, pointed exactly at 12 o'clock.

Dong—!

As the bell rang, the viewpoint that had been fixed on the clock tower shot high into the sky.

The cityscape that filled the view was truly beautiful. As befitting a city created with the utmost effort by a genius of the century.

A perfect city that existed nowhere else in the world—Reverse City finally revealed itself to the world.

After showing such a captivating landscape, it road through various parts of the city, proving that even the details were not sloppy at all.

No, it was more than that. It demonstrated that the interior design of any building was perfect, traversing the city in a straight line.

As if showing everyone that the quality was good enough to be put into 'Reverse Planet' right now.

[Reverse City]

The na carved above the city in gorgeous handwriting was the finishing touch itself!

······However, if they had only shown the city, people would have said, "It's impressive, but so what?"

Kugugung—!

It was right then that an entire building collapsed and two people burst out and began fighting.

It was Jeong Nayeon wearing bright clothing that would imdiately co to mind when hearing the word superhero, and Baek Woohyun in a villain style wrapped in pitch-black darkness like a cloak.

They fought openly and violently inside the city. Not caring at all even as several buildings were destroyed, caught up in their battle.

[One Who Protects the City and One Who Seeks to Destroy It]

[And Those Who Agree with Their Will and Join Them]

Against the backdrop of Hero Jeong Nayeon and Villain Baek Woohyun's fight, the figures of those supporting them appeared.

Those devoted to research, those making equipnt, those planning operations, even those actually participating in their battle.

Many familiar faces—from things like the SSR Cup or raid parties—filled two factions that fiercely clashed in the city called Reverse City.

[Or Those Who Simply Live as mbers of the City]

The view moved away from the center of the combat commotion to show those still maintaining peaceful daily lives.

Running their own shops like bakeries, becoming journalists and roaming the city looking for stories, or becoming police officers—or criminals—fighting over public safety.

People with familiar faces again lived their own lives without necessarily becoming heroes or villains. Reverse City willingly embraced them.

The city seen from a viewpoint that slowly moved away and upward remained the sa as before.

As if Reverse City was declaring itself to be purely Reverse City, whether heroes and villains fought and created chaos, or whether other people lived ordinary lives.

Additionally, as if the city's scale was trendously large—too large to be filled with just a few dozen or few hundred people.

[A City Created by Countless People Gathering]

[We Invite You to Reverse City]

—"Then can we increase the recruitnt list even more?"

—"Of course."

—"It's already hundreds of people."

—"I said at least hundreds. Even thousands is fine."

At the video's conclusion was a conversation Jeong Nayeon and Baek Woohyun had while looking at Reverse City—which was Night City at the ti—faintly included.

In other words, they openly stated that the scale of content to be conducted in 'Reverse City' planned to recruit a minimum of hundreds and maximum of thousands of people.

The reactions of those who watched the trailer to the end went without saying.

—Insane ????????????????

—No what is this ????

—Really crazy ????????????

—The city's scale and quality are mind-blowing??

—Wow ???????? thousands of people collaborative content ????????????

??How much would just the server costs be for that

??Don't know?

??Probably easily breaks several hundred million

—Sothing big is coming

??Really ???? big ????

—Are you dumping all the money you earned into this ????

—This is Hackphysical class ????????

??Hey, bro~ If you're doing collaborative content, just call thousands of people~

—Only broadcasters can participate, right?

??Looking at the pinned comnt, seems so

—Great Emperor Hack

Viewers who watched the 'Reverse City' trailer showed trendous expectations. Because it was a super-large-scale content the likes of which hadn't been seen in who knows how long.

Naturally, talk about the invitation list also ca up. They started running their happiness circuits among themselves about who would be invited.

Actually, unless one was quite an underworld broadcaster, there wasn't much worry about not being invited. Rather, people just thought about what if they were invited but didn't participate.

Even excluding those shown in the video as confird, there were still over a thousand remaining spots, so surely they could squeeze in, right?

—Believing in thousands of people you idiots ????????

??For real ???? thousands of people would have trendous server costs alone, no way that's happening

??Your heads are completely empty so you get fooled by videos like this ????

??Hack Tour content Principle 1: If it's Hackphysical, it's possible

??Hack Tour content Principle 2: Don't doubt Principle 1

??He proves it every ti but they doubt again ????

However, since thousands of people was such a large number, there were quite a few who didn't believe it. Mostly antis of either Baek Woohyun personally or the 'Hack Tour' content itself.

People who displayed jealousy and envy toward Baek Woohyun and the 'Hack Tour' content for the sole reason that they were doing well, even though they had never hard anyone.

They tried to ruin the festival by throwing pathetic jabs at those cheering for the trailer. It was a very ugly struggle.

Their malice nearly had so effect. After all, as ntioned earlier, thousands of people was too large a scale, so so people ca out thinking, "Is that so?"

It couldn't be seen as particularly strange. Cases where the light fan majority was dragged around by a vocal minority were common.

Nevertheless, the reason it was "nearly" was simple. Like how the train keeps going even when dogs bark, the 'Hack Tour' content didn't stop.

?? Another Hack Tour Trailer Dropped?

(Challenger Road Trailer Video)

What's with this one-two punch ????????

—Why is this happening

—Crazy ????????

—They're making content non-stop

—How many trailers is this ????

??Including Superstar N, this is the third one ????

??Add (ans Nuclear~) behind it ????

??????;

—??? : Shall we go get it now, Challenger rank 1

—Climbing to Challenger from last place ????

—Kya, Reverse City and Challenger Road

—This is crazy

The 'Challenger Road' trailer following just a few hours after the 'Reverse City' trailer!

Before the storm-like one-two punch, the antis' malice couldn't gain montum. They were too busy digesting the given bait for that.

Even if they tried to cause a ruckus saying thousands of people made no sense, it was aningless since everyone went to watch the new trailer video.

[Challenger Road]

The trailer that stamped the five-character title from the video's start wasn't very long.

It was even more so compared to the nearly five-minute 'Reverse City' trailer. The 'Challenger Road' trailer was at most about a minute.

However, that was more than enough to introduce the content the trailer aid to promote.

Clang.

Baek Woohyun, with 「Soul Eater」 slung over his shoulder, slowly climbed the stairs. Continuously without stopping, while dealing with black shadows that appeared intermittently.

At the top of the long stairway was a gorgeously decorated throne, and Baek Woohyun standing before it slowly turned around.

Just before he sat on the throne, looking at the stairs he had climbed, suggesting the Challenger rankings, the video concluded.

—Challenger ranking climb declaration is so cool ????

—This is what makes him Hackphysical, openly declaring it like this

—The audacity of not even considering failure is delicious ????

—Existing Challengers need to stop Hackphysical for real

What the 'Challenger Road' trailer ant was clear. It was a declaration that now that he'd reached Challenger, he would ascend to the pinnacle.

Baek Woohyun's rank upon just entering Challenger was last place. In other words, 1000th. The 999 people above him were all pro players or equivalent figures.

It was a declaration molded into video that he would sweep them all away and claim the pinnacle. It was practically no different from an area-of-effect taunt sent to all Challengers.

However, no one who watched the video thought, "What will you hear if you fail?" Few even viewed it as a challenge.

Rather, more people perceived it as him going to reclaim a throne that was originally his. Because that's what the skill Baek Woohyun had shown so far indicated.

This atmosphere continued as it was until the 'Hack Tour' content returned after the two trailer releases.

'????' donated '1000 won'!

[Reverse City list confird? Are you really planning to invite thousands? You guys crazy?]

'Life Achievent Grandmaster' donated '10,000 won'!

[Challenger Challenge where Challengers stop Hackphysical, now begins]

'Cloeple' donated '100,000 won'!

[I want to contact the person who created the city]

'Viewer Participation Addict' donated '5000 won'!

[Is there absolutely no way for viewers to directly participate in Reverse City?????]

—Wow

—Donation firepower is insane

—This much from the start ????

—But for real curious, won't even candidate lists be revealed

The nurous donations pouring in simultaneously with the start of the 'Hack Tour' content fully guaranteed how strong the impact of the two released trailers was.

Curiosity about the 'Reverse City' invitation list, anticipation for Challenger Road, and even brain-dead questions asking if there were viewer participation thods.

Really, it was a continuous barrage of donations that didn't even give Jeong Nayeon and the other panelists ti to open their mouths.

"Everyone calm down! I'll answer as much as I can!"

—So is the thousands of people scale right?

—How much were the server costs!!

—Start Challenger climb quickly ????

—It's chaotic, so chaotic

Jeong Nayeon calmly settled the atmosphere, saying she would do a brief Q&A.

Leading the 'Hack Tour' content and also conducting personal broadcasts, she had accumulated considerable experience as a broadcaster, so she wasn't flustered by this much.

Moreover, she had already prepared sufficient responses. There was no way she would have thought the broadcast would be unaffected when the community was boiling so hotly.

"The list isn't confird. The scale? Thousands of people is correct. I'm serious. I'm not crazy."

"Please look forward to whether Woohyun can climb to the top of the Challenger rankings with a perfect record."

"The person who created the city, I also don't really···. I'll ask Woohyun first."

"To accommodate even viewers, the server would——"

—I'm not crazy, my ass ????

—Viewer participation is definitely out

—The city quality was really insane, makes you wonder when they started preparing

—Co to think of it, still undefeated, Hackphysical;

"——Alright! Then let's start Challenger Road! Woohyun is waiting!
