Chapter 1448: Live Streaming

“Ok, fine… I’ll accompany you. I’m just worried that I will drag you down because I know nothing,” Lu Li comforted Water Fairy. As a man who had single-handedly raised his little sister, Lu Li was very good at dealing with girls.

“Don’t worry, I will instruct you. There was a game company that I used to have a good relationship with and I signed a live streaming agreement with them. The game was later swallowed up by Dawn and the agreement was transferred to Dawn as well. Now I need someone to play doubles with me; playing singles is just boring,” Water Fairy explained. Water Fairy was whining a moment ago, but she had now explained everything clearly.

“Live streaming? No problem!” Lu Li replied. He didn’t have a colourful personality, but since he had been famous for so long, being reserved did not seem appropriate in this situation.

Although it was not the same game as Lu Li had been playing, almost everything from the Dawn could apply to ‘Survival and Escape’, except for the old game helmet. Back then, when Dawn had just been released, no one knew that it would swallow up so many games on the market.

Lu Li logged into the interface, chose Survival and Escape, and turned on the live stream function according to the instruction of Water Fairy.

As always, his ID was Lu Li, which was the same ID he used in Dawn. His name seemed to be the last thing his parents left him. Even the image of his parents had faded away throughout time.

After setting up, the couple made their first appearance in the game of Survival and Escape.

Although Dawn dominated the role-playing game market, there were still many users that it was not able to attract. These people would not play the games that they were interested in just because Dawn was popular.

Survival and Escape was one such game that had continued to operate in this situation.

There were 100 players that would participate in each game. Every player would start with nothing at the very beginning of each round. They were placed on an aircraft and parachuted onto a desert Island where they had to collect weapons and equipment, and also be aware of enemies that could be hidden anywhere. After a long period of elimination, the last person who survived was the winner.

Known for its large variety of scenarios, this game had been popular for a long time. Players could enjoy driving off-road vehicles, jungle skirmishes and stealing loot, among other experiences.

The game did not only value the player’s shooting skills, but also the player’s strategy and survival techniques.

As the game progressed, the safe zone where the players had to stay to keep safe would be constantly shrinking. At the end of the game, survivors would face a final fight with each other.

The first thing to do after logging into the game was to create a team, which was christened by Water Fairy as ‘The Damn Couple’. It seemed that she had accepted this description of them.

“Hey, Water Fairy is live streaming!” someone shouted.

Wherever Water Fairy went, she was always a goddess, and it seemed that in Survival and Escape, girl players were far fewer than boys. The popularity of Water Fairy was even higher than in Dawn. When she went online, she immediately caused a scene, but no one seemed to be bothered in the Dawn when this happened. Perhaps everyone in the Dawn was used to her being online every day.

In the first minute of the game, Water Fairy was still trying to explain some of the basic operations of the game to Lu Li because this game did not completely mimic reality.

The number of people watching the live stream had been rising steadily, from tens of hundreds to tens of thousands. Some of them were gamers, and some of them were simply watching their goddess, Water Fairy, playing games.

Water Fairy had never live streamed in Dawn, because Dawn was not suitable for live streaming. The attributes of her equipment and personal combat techniques could be easily studied by her opponents. However, Survival and Escape was different in that the players were placed on a desert island to collect equipment on their own. Everyone started out as equal at the beginning of each round.

“Why is it not the cute girl who used to play with Water Fairy? Who is this person and why has the name of the room changed to The Damn Couple!!” someone shouted.

“No… way!”

“Her account must have been stolen!”

People immediately found something strange today – the name of the team and the person who was playing with Water Fairy was not the girl who used to play with her.

“Oh dear, isn’t he Lu Li? The famous damn couple came to the game of survival!” one exclaimed in surprise.

“Could someone explain what’s happening here to me please? What is the Damn Couple? Where is the administrator? Someone is attacking the host! Kick them out!” a viewer shouted.

“Keep your mouth tight if you know nothing! Your goddess belongs to Lu Li now – the Damn Couple is the famous couple from Dawn. You losers are still living in your own little world. Get your goddess back if you are can,” someone typed.

“He looks decent. Is he a tycoon?” one asked.

“Just a poor rat. He made a fortune in the Dawn because of luck…” someone answered.

“A poor boy, Lu Li, fell in love with a rich goddess, Water Fairy. What a beautiful love story! I will support this guy no matter what. I’d better leave to play my game – maybe I will fall in love with a rich beauty one day,” someone typed.

“Honestly, the techniques of the previous girl suck and Water Fairy is no better. This game is not for girls. Maybe she found her a helper today.”

“Lu Li is truly a master – he killed Sorrowless!”

“Seriously? I haven’t been around in the gaming circle for a while. Someone killed Sorrowless?”

“Perhaps it is because Water Fairy was beaten up half a month ago and went to Dawn to find herself a boyfriend to take revenge!”

“I can’t bear this. Let’s team up to kill this Lu Li and get our goddess back!”

“That is Lu Li. Go if you want him to beat the shit out of you!”

“Yeah, if even a beast like Sorrowless was killed by him, what kind of a monster is he?! I don’t dare to pick a fight with him!”

There was not enough time for Water Fairy to explain everything to Lu Li. In just a minute, both of them moved from the waiting area to the aircraft, along with the other players. The plane carrying 100 people was flying to the desert island.

“I say one, two, three and we jump, ok?” Water Fairy said.

The operation of the parachute had just been explained to Lu Li by Water Fairy. Lu Li was confident that he could jump off the aircraft and deploy the parachute. He had never done such a thing, and he was nervous but excited.

“Can Lu Li skydive? Is he as a boyfriend coming to help or just a rookie coming to help another rookie get some chicken dinner?

The so-called ‘chicken dinner’ referred to surviving until the end of the game.

“Three, two, one!” Water Fairy shouted.

The two jumped out of the aircraft together. The initial stage did not require them to open a parachute. When they reached a certain height, the system would notify them to do so. In order to reduce the difficulty of the skydiving, the system would force the parachute to open when a critical height was reached.
