"ha!"
Leaning on the balcony with his arms, Yunfan stared blankly at the scenery outside the window, fascinated.
Perhaps due to his youthful nature, Yunfan pursed his lips, and with a hint of childishness, he subconsciously breathed out toward the window as if he was playing a prank.
Suddenly, white mist spit out from his mouth and hit the window glass, making the light projected in that small area blurry.
Stretching out his hand, Yunfan's well-joined fingers gently scratched the glass, tracing the areas covered by the breath.
Soon, the images of three little people appeared on the surface of the window.
And as the fingertips left like a dragonfly, Yunfan felt the dull pain from the cracked wounds on his fingers.
Thinking about it, it must be due to exposure to water vapor.
"Dad, Mom..."
With his eyebrows trembling slightly, Yun Fan murmured to himself, with endless sadness flowing in his voice.
After being stunned for a long time, Yun Fan breathed out again. Next to the three villains, he scribbled a few sketches and drew a smiling face with sharp teeth and a snowflake-shaped trophy.
"You must learn to laugh, Yunfan."
Slapping his face, Yunfan forced a smile on his bitter face.
Then, the smile became deeper and deeper. Through the reflection reflected in the glass, Yun Fan could clearly see that his face seemed to have a trace of evil spirit.
"hiss."
Taking a deep breath, Yun Fan shook his head and threw away all the complicated thoughts.
boom!
Taking steps forward, Yunfan walked to the bathroom, and then the sound of running water came.
Not long after, Yunfan slowly walked to the old cabinet with a rubbed towel, raised his hand and grabbed a photo frame.
Inside, there is a slightly yellowed photo.
That is Yunfan's family portrait.
His movements suddenly became very cautious. Yunfan carefully grasped the photo frame and wiped it meticulously.
Immediately afterwards, there was the ice crystal trophy covered with a little dust.
For five years, almost every night, in this house of less than fifty square meters, Yunfan would repeat this action over and over again until he was satisfied.
only...
Two days ago, due to the return of the frightening nightmare, he quit the game and fell asleep, ignoring this matter.
And tonight, Yunfan finally picked up this old habit of his again.
"Um."
It wasn't until the moonlight became brighter that Yun Fan nodded with satisfaction.
And this time...
Gululu.
Yunfan suddenly heard his stomach growl, indicating hunger.
Taking out the cotton-padded clothes that were a little too small due to shrinkage from the closet, Yunfan dressed neatly and walked out of the house wearing cotton-padded shoes.
...
In the old Tongzi Building, the voice-activated lights in the corridor have long been broken.
but,
Yunfan, who is extremely familiar with this place, can step down every step with his eyes closed.
Crunch.
Crunch.
Walking through the streets covered with thick snow, Yunfan's eyes caught the sight of the bus stop not far away flashing with various lights.
Above it was a large advertisement for the Horror Nightmare game.
In front of the advertisement, two children who looked like high school students rubbed their red ears and shouted excitedly.
"Mingzi, have you played this popular game recently?"
"Of course, I'm going to reach the bronze rank now."
"I'll go! How can you be so strong? Why is it so difficult for me to beat the escapees in Black Iron Five?"
"Hehe, you must not have watched the instructional videos. Recently, there is a big executioner named Stranger who has posted a lot of instructional videos on the Internet. If you study hard tonight, I will ensure that you get into college..."
Crunch.
An inconspicuous figure passed by two teenagers. Under the neon lights, the smile on his face looked particularly bright.
...
Twenty minutes later.
Suck!
Yunfan's home was filled with continuous sniffing sounds.
Sitting on the bed, Yunfan was wrapped in a thick quilt, and he was holding a bowl of steaming noodles in his hand.
It was a bowl of small noodles mixed with half a bowl of fat sheep rolls, and it smelled delicious.
Just now, Yunfan bought half a catty of fat lamb and a bag of hand-made noodles from the hot pot restaurant downstairs.
"Cool!"
After finishing a bowl of noodles, Yun Fan smacked his lips with some unfinished thoughts.
Taking out a paper towel, Yunfan folded it twice and wiped the dipping sauce from the corner of his mouth.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Suddenly, Yunfan found that the screen of his mobile phone lit up and made a buzzing sound.
"Voice calls?"
Sliding the screen with his finger, Yun Fan frowned when he saw the notes on it, as if he was deep in thought.
"oh!"
Yunfan nodded with sudden realization, and seemed to recall who the person opposite was.
Immediately, he pressed the green call button.
"Hey, are you the big stranger?"
An excited voice suddenly echoed through the room.
"Brother Teng, it's me."
Yunfan's voice was filled with a smile, and he responded.
The man opposite was one of his old rivals and also his student.
Yunfan glanced at the note, which read "The Tengteng of Fighting".
He was deeply impressed by this man. He was killing two emperors by himself.
As the Human Emperor, Teng Teng would often fight against the monster Stranger, and suffered many severe beatings.
As the Slaughter Emperor, he had to stay up all night looking for Yun Fan's game videos in that era when strangers ruled the terrifying nightmare. He stayed up countless times to learn Yun Fan's game ideas and techniques.
It is no exaggeration to say that in the first season of closed beta, which of the slaughter kings on the list has not studied the play style of the stranger?
Later, Yunfan, who couldn't bear the harassment, simply invited a group of slaughter emperors to share his experience.
After going back and forth, Yunfan learned the identities of many people in casual chats.
Of course, during their interactions with each other, when they found out that the stranger was just a high school student, the entire group of slaughter emperors beat their chests and stamped their feet.
All I have to do is complain about God’s unfairness!
At that time, "Fighting Teng Teng", who had just graduated from college, was considered relatively older.
Therefore, Yunfan called him "Brother Teng".
You call me boss and I call you brother. We have our own business and don’t affect each other.
"Long time no see, alien."
The roar of fighting came from the cell phone receiver.
"Long time no see." Yunfan responded with a smile, and then he asked first, "Brother Teng, what's wrong so late?"
He didn't believe that people who hadn't contacted each other for so long were just catching up on old times.
really...
"Foreigner, you must be in college now."
"Speaking of it, it is also a fate. It is precisely because I spent all my time studying your playing system that I was able to have such a deep understanding of the game Horror Nightmare."
"Now, I ask Teng Teng to explain, and the Horrifying Nightmare has become my meal."
Across the screen, Tengteng explained with his eyebrows raised, as if he was missing something.
"Today, I found a great game on the list of executioners. I'm still wondering, which slayer is so brave and dares to use a chainsaw?"
"I didn't expect it to be you."
Tengteng's explanation voice suddenly became intermittent, and Yunfan had no choice but to grab the phone and walk to the window.
"Well, I'm listening, tell me."
Leaning against the window sill, Yunfan suddenly realized that something was wrong with the temperature in the room.
He leaned down and put his hand on the radiator, feeling an icy chill.
"This heating is broken..."
Yunfan murmured softly and made a few remarks.
"Weirdo, I explained your game. The operation is still so familiar, hahaha! I..."
Yunfan frowned as he heard the loud laughter from the other side.
Once upon a time, the two of them could be considered good friends.
But Teng Tengjie's words were full of unfamiliarity.
"Brother Teng, is this a matter of authorization?"
Yunfan's voice was a bit cold, as if he was trying to repel people thousands of miles away.
He interrupted Tengteng's polite explanation of the philistine and asked the question directly.
Authorization, this is actually a commonplace and well-known thing.
If a person wants to frequently explain the games of a certain anchor or high-level player, he must give the other party some corresponding benefits.
Otherwise, why would people agree to it?
For the anchor, you may add some super rockets, and the other party will give you the authorization to explain.
However, for strangers who are not anchors, this matter needs to be interviewed.
After some simple speculation, Yunfan already understood the purpose of Tengteng's explanation.
Next, it is nothing more than a matter of more money and less money.
"well."
Yunfan sighed in frustration.
He thought that when an old friend called, he would chat about his current situation and say hello in the same relaxed and comfortable way as before.
But who would have thought that friends who once talked about everything would become so rude and polite.
Knew it!
People are going to change.
On both ends of the phone, the two people were silent for a long time.
Then, they spoke almost at the same time.
"Brother Teng, if you treat me as a friend, don't mention money."
"Foreign man, from now on, the profit from your future games will be 50% to 50%..."
What?
The two people's voices rang in each other's ears, and they fell into silence again.
"Foreigner, I probably know a little bit about what happened after you retired."
"Back then, I couldn't do anything to help you. Because, at that time, I was still poor and I only knew how to play games."
"But it's different now. If you still recognize me as Brother Teng, we'll split it 50-50. We won't bring up anything else until it's no longer difficult for you."
Finally, it was Tengteng who broke the deadlock by explaining.
"Ah."
Yunfan smiled, and the laughter was full of gratitude and sadness.
How could he not understand that he had misunderstood Tengteng's explanation just now!
Generally speaking, authorizing this kind of behavior only requires a one-time payment of money, and the subsequent income has nothing to do with the original owner.
But now, Teng Teng's comments are clearly for his own benefit.
You know, the commentary industry requires a lot of time to cut materials and choose copywriting, which is much easier than just typing up a game of materials by yourself.
Moreover, as the pinnacle slayer in ancient times, his reputation is far less resounding than before.
And now that his brother Teng has become the commentator, he is undoubtedly quite famous.
This also means that it is not Brother Teng who is trying to take advantage of his own popularity.
On the contrary, it is others who are helping themselves.
"Twenty-eight points, otherwise I would feel uneasy..."
After straightening out his thoughts, Yunfan rejected Tengteng's previous proposal without hesitation.
but...
"It's settled as I said!"
On the other end of the phone, Teng Teng's explanation voice was decisive.
"That foreign guy, I won't disturb you for now, hang up!"
As soon as Tengteng finished speaking, he was about to hang up the phone.
However...
"Wait, Brother Teng!" Yunfan's slightly trembling voice sounded in his ears, "I have something else to ask you..."
"Why do they call clowns sewers?"
With these words, Yunfan asked the most puzzling question in his mind.
...
another side.
Snapped!
Tengteng explained, lighting a cigarette and taking a long puff on the cigarette holder.
"Weirdo." Teng Teng explained with a wry smile, "The era of the ugly emperor is long gone."
In the Horror Nightmare game, particularly powerful executioners or escapees will have the word "emperor" after their names to show their power.
Back then, the stranger who used a chainsaw to kill clowns was undoubtedly the most powerful Ugly Emperor.
"Beginning in the middle of the second season of the closed beta, a large number of escapees appeared in the Horror Nightmare game that were naturally capable of restraining the Joker. The era of the Ugly King has since grown from its peak to a period of decline."
"But the most critical landmark is the semi-finals of the second league."
"In the second season, the peak slaughter king who claimed to have inherited your mantle ended up struggling to maintain a tie and missed the finals."
Ding, ding.
Suddenly, Yunfan's phone received a video.
Yun Fan clicked on the screen, and then, a video of the game progressing from the clown's perspective slowly played.
Following the system's beep, the clown started to take action.
Find magic light groups, enchant, see-saw...
After a smooth operation, the clown began its search process.
then,
It's the beginning of pain.
Yun Fan finally understood what Teng Teng meant when he said that he was the best at defeating clowns in terms of characteristics.
Sizzling...
The sound of the chainsaw stopped suddenly, and in Yunfan's field of vision, the clown was sucked to the wall by an irresistible force.
The reason is simply that it stepped on a small black flag on the road that it was chasing people to avoid.
Looking at the fugitives who had fled away, the clown had no choice but to assemble the magic energy light group again.
But who would have expected that the fugitive would turn back and throw another black flag at the clown's feet.
Boom!
It was sucked up to the wall again, and the magic energy light group disappeared.
Then, the clown turned and left, and found the hunter at another cipher machine.
Can...
The fire that spewed out from the muzzle cut off the clown's idea of unlocking the first-level characteristics.
Buzz!
While it was going around, five cipher machines lit up!
A piercing alarm sounded at the door.
At this time, only one person on the field had been hung on the sacrificial chair.
What followed was a long opening battle.
...
call out!
At the end of the video, the clown's feet flashed with golden light. Just before the fugitive rushed out of the door, he turned around and knocked him to the ground.
In front of my eyes, blood-red fonts appeared.
"I declare..." In the last few dozen seconds of the video, the clown exuding black energy slowly spoke, "The era of the Ugly King has come to an end."
"This is the most critical landmark. From then on, the era of the Ugly Emperor started by you was ended by this peak slayer of emperors."
"Since then, the original list that was basically full of chainsaws can no longer be seen."
Tengteng explained, his eyes were blurred, and there was only a cigarette butt left in the cigarette.
"The clown's mechanism is actually impeccable even now, but it is no longer suitable for the current version..."
Tengteng explained quickly, but was suddenly interrupted.
"Who is he?"
Yunfan stared at the darkened mobile phone screen, his tone a little unhappy.
"Is it over? Why, I feel like it has just begun."
"Ah?" Teng Teng explained for a moment, "Start? But this..."
"Excuse me."
"because..."
"I'm back." chapter
