Chapter 149: Secretly playing games on Bai Lu's phone; the third-rate streamer, Little Gui Zi!
Luofu, Aurum Alley.
In a dim street.
Bailu was followed by two children of about the same age. The three of them were approaching their destination at the end of the street with eager anticipation.
Bailu walked at the very front.
With her head held high and chest out, she looked very confident.
The two companions behind her seemed somewhat hesitant.
Standing at the corner of a wall, the two of them stopped in unison.
Bailu immediately put her hands on her hips and said, "Hey, we're already here. You two aren't going to chicken out now, are you?"
The little girl lowered her head in shame and said softly, "Um… is it really okay for us to come to a place like this?"
The little boy sniffed his nose and said, "I heard my mom and dad say… this is all for adults. We're not old enough yet. Playing it will be harmful to our physical and mental health."
Bailu looked up slightly.
She showed a look of displeasure.
"You two are way too cowardly."
"That's just stuff adults made up to trick you!"
"Listen to me, I've played this before, I have experience."
"It's not harmful at all. The things inside are very realistic, and… oh, they're just very realistic!"
A glint of excitement flashed in Bailu's clear, large eyes.
She directly pulled her two companions and burst into a room at the end of the street.
A middle-aged man wearing sunglasses stood at the door.
He first glanced at the three children, then looked behind them to confirm no one was following before closing the door.
As soon as they entered—
The three were immediately shocked by the "dazzling world" before their eyes!
Including Bailu.
Her small mouth also stretched into an "O" shape!
All kinds of exciting images!
Some were fighting the Antimatter Legion.
Some were wandering around the Space Station.
Some were looking at the skill descriptions on the character panel…
Shouts and gasps of admiration rose one after another!
"Rules are meant to be broken!"
"Look at my Dan Heng, his skills are so cool!"
"I can even Warp to pull new characters!"
"WOW WOW WOW!!!!"
"Look over there, someone pulled Yanqing! Now that's what I call a cool skill!"
That's right!
This place.
Was entirely filled with the game Honkai: Star Rail!
It was an underground gaming den specifically for children to play HSR!
Moreover.
The place was divided into different areas.
The standard area only had a phone.
The premium area allowed players to project their game screen onto a TV for a more comprehensive and clear experience.
The uncle with sunglasses came over.
"Which area do you three want to choose?"
The little boy and girl looked at Bailu expectantly.
Bailu waved her small hand: "Give me two hours in the premium area!"
"No problem, this way please!"
The sunglasses uncle was about to lead the three to the premium area.
Suddenly, his footsteps paused.
He took off his sunglasses.
He looked closely at Bailu: "Hiss…"
"How do you look so familiar?"
Bailu raised her head confidently and said, "Hmph hmph, this young lady is Bailu, the Dragon Lady of Luofu!"
The uncle froze for a moment.
He laughed and said, "You really have that Bailu vibe. Little boss, if you go to the Central Starskiff Haven square and imitate the Dragon Lady, you might even get popular."
"Don't waste time, hurry up and open a Jade Abacus for us."
"No problem. Oh, right! In the premium area, you can choose the level of your account. Boss, since you look so much like Bailu, I'll rent you my latest account. That way, you can directly experience the latest plot and characters. How about it?"
"That's great, no extra charge, right?" Bailu asked.
"Of course not, go enjoy the charm of HSR!"
After choosing a spot.
The two companions each took a small stool and sat down beside Bailu.
Their faces were filled with excitement and longing.
The little girl couldn't help but ask, "Sister Bai, why aren't we starting from the beginning?"
Bailu replied without hesitation, "I've already played the Space Station plot. The Xianzhou plot is much more interesting."
The little boy's face was full of respect.
He had been completely conquered by Bailu's confidence and air of authority, saying admiringly, "Sister Bai, I'll listen to you for everything from now on!"
"I want to see combat!"
"I like Dan Heng the most! Does this account have Dan Heng?"
"Wow! There really is! We're in luck! The boss didn't lie to us!"
...
Little Guizi's live room-
After Guinaifen finished watching the preview short film, she decisively started the [ A Foxian Tale of the Haunted ] mission.
At this moment, her face was full of excitement.
"Family! We already know that in this mission, both Shangshang and I will appear, and there's also the Ten-Lords Commission Judge…"
"All sorts of signs suspecting ghosts."
"Are you curious? Are you looking forward to it?"
"Little Guizi will reveal it for you right away!"
Opening the mission description.
Guinaifen originally wanted to track the target location.
But the moment she saw the description of this mission, the smile on her face slowly disappeared.
[ Regardless of whether you received education in science, magic, faith, or whatever in the first half of your life, when a third-rate internet celebrity sends you a spam text claiming she encountered a supernatural ghost in some abandoned garden, your reaction is— 1. Great, I can hang out with her! 2. What kind of new scam text is this? Block it. 3. Fine, let's go take a look. ]
[ Of course, no matter what you choose, you secretly made up your mind that no matter how silver-tongued she is, you will never pay even fifty credit points for this trip, never! Besides, you don't have any spare money in your pocket anyway. ]
"Wait a minute!"
"Lin Yu, what do you mean by this!"
"Describing me like this?"
"How did I become a third-rate internet celebrity? The text I edited before was so good, how did it become a spam text!"
"And this description, why does it feel like it's describing some kind of charlatan?"
Guinaifen was so angry she laughed.
But in reality.
Inside, she couldn't help but praise!
As expected of Lin Yu!
He really sees people clearly!
Just from that text, she herself felt a bit unreliable.
Before Honkai: Star Rail appeared.
Wasn't she just a third-rate streamer!
At that time, she was thinking of relying on ghost hunting to gain gimmicks and attract traffic.
Later, she met a guy named Lin Yu and was recommended this game.
Since then, she changed her career to a game streamer.
Now she was already the number one Honkai: Star Rail streamer on the whole internet.
She could only sigh at how wonderful fate is!
Without this game.
She really would have been like in the game, going on an adventure with Shangshang for a supernatural live stream…
So.
For Guinaifen.
Lin Yu could be said to be the benefactor who changed her life.
And Lin Yu was the noble person who gave her this opportunity.
"Eh?"
"Feathered Spirit, Lin Yu? These two names sound quite similar…"
Note: Feathered Spirit = Yu Ling
"Ha, I'm overthinking… Better focus back on the game."
"I'm streaming right now."
Looking at the bullet chat.
…
"In this game, Little Guizi is still the Little Guizi before she got famous."
"At that time, Little Guizi relied entirely on her antics to attract traffic. I'm not surprised at all that she did this kind of thing!"
"Our Trailblazer really stands out for being able to adapt to any situation."
"Shocking! I'm watching a streamer in a live room streaming herself streaming in a game."
"When will the Ten-Lords Commission come out?"
…
Arriving at the dock.
Guinaifen saw her game self at a glance.
She stepped forward to talk to her.
"Hello, family! You came here to find me because you're curious about supernatural events, right?"
"What a coincidence, I just finished editing the video recorded during the live stream. It can serve as evidence for you to see."
"Before watching the video, I want to ask you a question, family. Do you believe in the existence of ghosts and spirits?"
[ Identified as fake at first glance, don't watch marketing accounts… ]
Guinaifen chose this option.
Back when she was still a small streamer, many people indeed had this preconceived notion.
And her self in the plot was still full of confidence.
"Hmph hmph, family who don't believe me are in trouble now."
"And the video I'm about to show will prove that Xianzhou is truly a place full of supernatural events."
"No more small talk. Look, this is the strange thing that happened when I was streaming in Fyxestroll Garden yesterday!"
On the screen.
The live recording jumped right out!
When watching the preview short film, she thought this part would be a highlight and would only appear as the plot progressed.
She didn't expect it.
This mission would release this live recording right at the start!
The main show begins!
"Family, right now Little Guizi is in the most terrifying supernatural holy land on Luofu—Fyxestroll Garden."
"Please like, follow, and share, family, to give Little Guizi some courage!"
Guinaifen said to the camera.
Then.
Sushang also entered the shot.
Her hands were placed in front of her chest.
She looked around nervously: "I heard that many strange things have happened here recently…"
"So cowardly… you promised to protect me!"
"How can the Cloud Knight sword technique kill invisible things!" Sushang was quite reasonable.
However.
Just as her voice fell.
A ball of green light "whoosh"ed past from behind the background!
Guinaifen suppressed her voice and said, "Did something just run past!"
Sushang quickly pulled out the Xuanyuan Sword.
With "thump thump thump," she took several steps back, bumping Guinaifen behind her.
She still pretended to be calm and said, "Don't don't don't don't panic… I'm here…"
Suddenly!
The two of them screamed in unison!
They were so scared that their pupils dilated and their faces turned pale!
The camera fell directly onto the ground.
Balls of green ghost fire floated across the screen and whispered: "Wuwuwu, what a tragic death…"
Then.
The bottom right corner of the video showed—Several hours later.
The screen changed to a third-person perspective.
It seemed to be a scene recorded by a professional recording tool.
Sushang was already lying on the ground, the entire outline of her body circled with white lines.
Her phone, hair ornaments, and 3.3 sword were all scattered on the ground.
Xueyi and the girl called "Houhou" were recording the case details nearby.
Guinaifen was describing it vividly: "At that time, it was just a small ball of spirit fire, and then it became this~ big!"
"It, it approached us from over there, then, then it went 'ga-oh'~!"
"Eee—, and then Sushang fell down."
Guinaifen used both hands and feet.
She used her body language to the extreme!
While Houhou squatted down.
She said softly to Sushang on the ground: "Miss Sushang, please stand up, isn't it cold?"
After watching this video.
Guinaifen originally wanted to hold back her laughter.
But seeing Sushang's shocked face beside her.
She couldn't hold it in anymore!
"Hahahahahaha hahahaha…"
She instantly went crazy with laughter!
In the live room.
The viewers also sent bullet chats one after another!
…
"No sense of incongruity at all!"
"Is this game content or Little Guizi's real experience? I'm almost unable to tell."
"A ten-year fan here to reveal that Little Guizi indeed did supernatural-type live streams before."
"Is it possible this part isn't a game plot, but a live broadcast?"
"Sushang next to her is almost dumbfounded, hahahaha…"
"Shangshang's baby-like sleep…"
"Wait! That green-haired little girl is also a Judge? The Ten-Lords Commission actually has such a cute Judge?"
"My impression of the Ten-Lords Commission is starting to collapse…".
