In the Internet age, who still makes traditional games?

#94 - "Brother, do you want to buy a cheat?"

Nanshan was extremely angry, vehemently refuting in the live stream:

"I'm innocent, I really didn't cheat."

"Look at them, then look at me! Is there even a tiny bit of similarity?"

"Zhumeng must have made a wrong judgment!"

"Because I played too well, the system mistakenly thought I was cheating and threw me in here. I've been wronged!"

"You just wait and see, I'll contact Zhumeng customer service right now to get this cleared up!"

"If they don't resolve this for me, I'll fly to Zhumeng headquarters in Ningzhou tomorrow to complain!"

"They can't slander my innocence!"

......

Nanshan spoke more and more urgently.

His face was red, and his words were assertive.

But the viewers simply didn't believe him.

Tired of listening, they simply changed their tune, neither saying they believed him nor saying they didn't, but instead saying:

"It doesn't matter anymore, bro."

"Right now, we just want to see a battle of the gods!"

"If you have money, you better upgrade your cheat, don't be so shabby."

"That's right, at least live a little longer so we can broaden our horizons."

"Exactly, exactly, what's a normal Dragon Palace Treasure Hunt compared to a battle of superpowers? This is the real battle of superpowers!"

"More, please! Love to watch!"

Nanshan was both anxious and angry.

'If I can't handle this matter well, my reputation and future will be completely ruined.'

This thought surfaced in his mind.

As a former professional player—even if he only played in one tournament—his career path was already relatively narrow.

Either he could transition to another game and try to become a professional.

That possibility was very small, otherwise he wouldn't have wasted three years.

Or he could become a streamer.

He had previously streamed on other platforms, but hadn't had much success. That's why he tried switching to Bite People Live, which had more traffic, after his contract expired.

But if he was proven to be cheating, then both of these paths would be completely blocked!

—No club would accept a player with the stain of openly cheating, and no audience would support a cheater.

His heart was anxious, and his mind raced.

But aside from stubbornly denying it, what other solution could he think of in the moment?

Nanshan muttered to himself, "Can't back down," "Can't run," "Insist on finishing the game and then appeal," bracing himself to continue the game.

But as soon as he took two steps, he heard Fuling's voice from afar—

"Dragon Transformation!"

Without even using his X-ray vision to look, he subconsciously retreated to avoid it.

—His awareness and marksmanship weren't bad, but they were far from being able to crush all the experts and completely dominate professional players like Fang Shuo. He only resorted to crooked methods in order to become famous in one shot.

The ink wash divine dragon indeed appeared in front, brushing past him.

But before he could be happy, a second divine dragon burst through the wall again!

This time it was aimed directly at his body, picking him up into the air.

"It's okay! Can't be instantly killed!" he said subconsciously, "I'm indoors here, I won't be finished off, I can still live!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, another divine dragon broke through the wall and finished him off.

From the death perspective, he watched Fuling standing in the distance, constantly "Dragon Transformation!" "Dragon Transformation!" "Dragon Transformation!" "Dragon Transformation!" He was completely dumbfounded.

Just as he opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say, the killer said something in the chat channel:

[Dragon Tamer]: "Bro, wanna buy a cheat?"

[Longevity Like Nanshan]: "???"

[Dragon Tamer]: "Your cheat is too weak, you're at the bottom of the food chain here. You can't survive without upgrading."

[Longevity Like Nanshan]: "I didn't cheat!!!"

[Dragon Tamer]: "?"

[Dragon Tamer]: "Forget it, anyway, add me anytime if you want to cheat."

After speaking, he even sent out his account ID number.

"It's impossible for me to cheat!!" Nanshan repeated in a very loud voice while replying in the chat channel.

"To be honest... I really want to play this, it looks kind of fun..."

"Flying Hammer is really fun, just watching it is heavenly!"

......

Nanshan glanced at the live stream and found that the number of viewers had actually soared again, exceeding 120,000, and was still climbing!

The platform was giving him a crazy amount of traffic!

The viewers were chatting enthusiastically.

At this moment, almost no one was accusing him of cheating anymore. They were all urging him to quickly revive and go watch the battle of the gods. The activity was terrifyingly high.

In Nanshan's flustered heart, a trace of luck suddenly emerged—

Could it be... that he could survive this?

Many people were even asking him to help inquire about the price in the live stream.

—Among these 120,000 viewers, there were really many people who weren't just joking with the streamer, but really wanted to try this kind of gameplay.

Not to mention others, Fang Shuo even wanted to try it after watching the live stream.

If it was just simple aimbot, wallhack, and invincibility, then he would hate it, because it was completely without fun.

But if everyone was cheating, and every character received super enhancements, and the battle logic underwent huge changes, then it would be completely different—

It looked very fun!

There was just one problem now:

To enter this server, you had to cheat.

Although he didn't know why Zhumeng was doing this, cheating on his main account was indeed too risky.

And he was a professional player. Cheating for any reason would threaten his career. He didn't even dare to try it on a smurf account.

Nanshan didn't dare to listen to the viewers' suggestions and really help inquire about the price.

But just because he didn't dare, didn't mean others didn't dare.

The Dragon Tamer's friend list, who was still fighting, started flashing red dots like crazy—hundreds or thousands of people were adding him as friends at the same time.

The Dragon Tamer had question marks popping up over his head.

He asked in the chat channel: "Is anyone live streaming this game?"

He was a little excited, and a little flustered.

Selling cheats was illegal after all. Selling them secretly usually wouldn't get you caught, but publicly selling them in a live stream might get him sanctioned by Zhumeng!

Just as he was panicking, someone suddenly sent him a private message in his friend list:

[Xumeng]: "Bro, got any cheats?"

The Dragon Tamer was first a little apprehensive.

But soon he realized: he hadn't approved the new friend requests yet, this was still someone who had added him before.

So he calmed down and replied: "Yes, do you want one?"

[Xumeng]: "Of course, but is your cheat reliable?"

[Dragon Tamer]: "I made it myself, of course it's reliable!"

[Xumeng]: "You made it yourself? That's amazing?"

[Dragon Tamer]: "What do you think! So buy with confidence, I offer after-sales service."

[Xumeng]: "Amazing, amazing! You've made a lot of money, right?"

The Dragon Tamer became wary:

"Why are you asking this?"

[Xumeng]: "You've already made so much, can you sell it to me cheaper?"

The Dragon Tamer breathed a sigh of relief, "No, the 'Frost Snow Project' cheat is very difficult to make. I worked non-stop for almost two weeks, and I just finished it a few days ago. I've only sold 200 copies, can't be cheaper."

[Xumeng]: "Non-stop? Are you bragging? Don't you have to study or work?"

[Dragon Tamer]: "I'm unemployed and have nothing to do. I'm doing this for a living, can't really make it cheaper."

[Xumeng]: "Okay, forget it then. How much is one?"

[Dragon Tamer]: "Not expensive, just 98 yuan, the price of a large monthly card plus a small monthly card. Includes X-ray vision, invincibility, aim assist, and other basic effects, as well as Fuling's exclusive infinite ultimate move."

[Dragon Tamer]: "But I don't recommend turning on invincibility. The game will become unstable if you turn it on."

[Xumeng]: "Doesn't work for other characters?"

[Dragon Tamer]: "I'm still working on other characters, but it takes a lot of effort. Upgrading costs money."

[Xumeng]: "You can make them, right? That's good."

After saying this, the person on the other side fell silent.

The Dragon Tamer waited for a while and found that there was no follow-up, so he took the initiative to ask: "Do you still want it? Say something."

He typed on the keyboard, "The price isn't impossible to negotiate."

But before he could finish writing, the other side sent a sentence:

"One copy is 98 yuan, you've sold 200 copies, that's 19,600. Do you know that selling cheats for more than 3,000 involves illegal activities, and more than 10,000 will be investigated?"

"??!!"

"You can make your own cheats, you should know the crime of invading and illegally controlling computer information system programs, right?"

The Dragon Tamer's pupils dilated:

"Who are you?!"

[Xumeng]: "Do you know who the boss of Zhumeng is?"

[Dragon Tamer]: "Don't know, what's wrong?"

[Xumeng]: "...Go search it up, and then look at my ID."

The Dragon Tamer switched out of the game and opened the search engine—

"Who is the boss of Zhumeng?"

The search engine immediately gave the answer: [Xu Meng]

[Dragon Tamer]: "!!!"

Nanshan, who was hiding in the corner peeking at the battle of the gods, suddenly saw a battlefield notification:
