The combat mode of Erlang Shen was also modified here; Chen Yu directly let him go all out, allowing the Adventurers to fully experience the terror of the Heavenly Court's strongest combat force right from the start.
“Streamer, freeze him! Use the Immobilization Spell quickly…”
“Holy crap, this is so frustrating to watch!”
“Roll to dodge the blade, then charge up a heavy staff strike to smash him. Do you even know how to play?”
“Oh, this is so stupid…”
“If you don’t know how to play, get out. I’ll go in and show you a thing or two.”
The bullet comments were also enjoying the show, not caring about the trouble.
Watching the Adventurers inside being thoroughly thrashed, they secretly delighted while pointing and commenting on the bullet screen.
Anyway, it wasn't themselves who were getting thrashed inside.
Besides, if they didn't point and comment now, they would be the ones getting pointed and commented at once they went in later.
Seeing almost all the Adventurers being mercilessly beaten by Erlang Shen, many Adventurers watching from outside realized that this Dungeon was truly difficult.
Those without sufficient skill would only get beaten once they entered…
However, not all of these twelve thousand Adventurers were unskilled novices. Among the Adventurers who came from Baiye City this time, there were still some with strong abilities and skills.
Some of them were the strongest casual Adventurers.
Others were players who had been eliminated from strategy teams, and they still had a strong understanding of Dungeons.
The number of viewers in the live streams of these players also gradually increased.
【Light staff, roll, light staff continuous combo, dodge and heavy staff swing. Holy crap, this is the smoothest streamer I've seen among all these live streams; he dodged all of Erlang Shen's skills.】
【Although this entire sequence was quite smooth, I didn't quite understand it, but I have to say, it's really rare to see a streamer like this who can decipher Erlang Shen's skills and even pull off flashy combos, especially when everyone else is getting beaten.】
【Streamer, make a tutorial!】
【Streamer, have you considered streaming black myth: wukong continuously in the future? If so, I'll definitely come watch every day. If your tutorials are good, I'll even throw you happy coins.】
As soon as a certain Adventurer, who was more detail-oriented, pulled off a bit of skilled play, the entire live stream erupted in an uproar.
Everyone exclaimed that this was truly a master.
This made the Adventurer feel a bit awkward yet also somewhat smug at the same time.
One could only say that sometimes, it truly depended on the contrast provided by peers.
Having witnessed countless of The Fated One being thrashed by Erlang Shen, the sudden appearance of someone who could counterattack was naturally praised to the skies.
This Adventurer also couldn't help but become more talkative, starting to teach everyone about light staff, how to use heavy staff, dodging skills, and the timing of rolls, and so on.
Unexpectedly, he gained a large number of fans because of this, and some even gave him one hundred happy coins, making him so happy that he was directly flung into the sky by Erlang Shen.
However, through this streamer, the Adventurers also discovered a way to quickly gain fame and attract fans.
That was to become a technical streamer for black myth: wukong.
In this era where over ten thousand Adventurers were being thrashed, the appearance of technical streamers particularly attracted the attention of other Adventurers.
However.
Not just anyone could become a technical streamer.
One Adventurer closed his live stream and painstakingly studied Erlang Shen's mechanics. When he felt he had completely grasped them,
He restarted his live stream and changed the title to 【Tutorial Streamer: Teaching You How to Slaughter Erlang Shen】. This title instantly attracted countless viewers.
“Slaughter Erlang Shen, Streamer, you really dare to use that title.”
“Don’t be a clickbaiter. Streamer, if you’re just here to trick us for traffic, don’t blame us for being harsh with our words.”
Facing the various doubts in the live stream,
This streamer confidently said, “Just you watch, whether it’s bragging or not will be proven by my actions.”
After speaking, he directly chose to spend 100 happy coins to reset the current stage.
Returning to before the confrontation with Erlang Shen.
“The streamer is so confident, it seems he really has something.”
“Interesting.”
“Let’s watch the streamer slaughter Erlang Shen. If it’s satisfying, there will be a generous reward.”
Seeing a 'boss' appear on the bullet screen,
The streamer also got excited, rubbing his hands and saying, “No problem, no problem, brothers, watch closely. According to my many observations, Erlang Shen’s opening move, the horizontal sweep with the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Glaive, has a hit detection range of 45 degrees to the front left. If we anticipate and roll to this spot, we can perfectly evade it.”
“Immediately after, he will most likely follow up with a thrust. This is the best time for us to graze him with a light staff strike, once, twice, pay attention to the rhythm, don’t get greedy…”
The streamer fluidly dodged and lightly swung his staff.
While explaining rapidly.
He indeed appeared at ease under Erlang Shen's furious assault, occasionally even chipping off a bit of health. The bullet comments were filled with “666,” “Learned something,” “Streamer is awesome,” “This is what a tutorial is!”
“See? The core is anticipation and rhythm…”
The streamer became increasingly confident.
“Oh, he’s red-eyed, he’s going to release that large-area AOE! Don’t panic now, we’ll charge up a heavy staff strike in advance and use the invincibility frames that come with the heavy staff’s release…” The streamer was full of confidence, and the heavy staff in his hand began to charge, its light glowing.
However, Erlang Shen’s ultimate move was not the horizontal sweep he expected, but an extremely swift, shadow-trailing downward slash. The charging character was like a living target.
Bang!
The character was slammed hard into the ground by a single strike.
Streamer: “…”
Bullet comments:
【??? Where are the invincibility frames?】
【Hahahaha, what about the anticipation you promised, streamer?】
【Coach report, what do I do if the enemy doesn’t follow the script? Waiting online, it’s urgent!】
【Erlang Shen: I heard your attack has invincibility frames?】
【Streamer, can you do this or not? If not, I’m going to start flaming.】
Seeing a flurry of doubts in the bullet comments, the streamer quickly got up, feigning composure:
“Ahem… This, a mistake, a mistake, this must be a bug. Anyway, this situation is quite rare, let’s start over…”
Some also found alternative paths, choosing not to confront Erlang Shen head-on.
Instead, they opted for other methods.
For example, there was one streamer who specialized in dodging and rolling.
When facing Erlang Shen’s attacks, he remained calm and composed, showing off some flashy moves to the camera during his live stream.
“Families, watch closely! As the saying goes, skill makes one bold! Today, our Big Bear won’t rely on a staff, but on our flashy footwork, to meet our Erlang Shen! Come on, come on, BGM on!”
Of course, there was no BGM; the streamer just sang it himself, right in front of Erlang Shen.
“The vast horizon is my love~”
“At the foot of the endless green mountains, flowers are blooming~”
“What kind of rhythm is the most, oh, the most swaying~”
