Chapter 158 One-on-One Challenge with Erlang Shen, Me?

On the computer screen, the game's camera always followed behind the monkey, watching it ride its somersault cloud, dodging and weaving among vines, branches, and roots, before finally soaring straight into the sky and flying directly towards the 100,000 heavenly soldiers riding the clouds.

Upon seeing this, the viewers in Su Tao's live stream immediately went wild.

"I think this spirit of 'though millions may perish, we must go against the tide' is exactly what the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, should be like. I never expected that the Star Card would actually capture the essence of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven's domineering and incompetent nature."

"Although I haven't seen how the game's controls are yet, just looking at the graphics and art style, Black Myth: Wukong is definitely a strong contender for Game of the Year at next year's TGA awards!"

"Um—I'm a student and I also want to play Black Myth: Wukong. Sister Su, could you help me get a beta test spot through Star Card?"

"Student? You're useless even if you're an animal, get in line at the back!"

"Selling closed beta test slots for 'Black Myth: Wukong' at a low price. Limited quantity, first come, first served."

"Damn, these scalpers are really daring to act so arrogantly! Don't they know that Sister Su is an officially contracted streamer with StarCard?!"

Su Tao looked up at the live stream chat and, with the reminders of her viewers, saw the scalper who dared to resell beta test slots for "Black Myth: Wukong" in her live stream, an official contracted streamer. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

It can only be said that even more than a hundred years later, the words of Ma Shengren have not lost their relevance.

When the profit margin reaches 300%, these speculators, even at the risk of having their accounts banned, will still try to attract customers in her official live stream.

The profit margin for reselling beta test slots for "Black Myth: Wukong" is far more than 300%, making it a business with virtually no investment and huge profits.

"Is Sister Sun, the administrator, here? Block that scalper and give his account to Xingka to see if he really has some beta test slots for the game."

Sun Jie, the room manager, has watched Su Tao grow from an unknown streamer to a big streamer with 300,000 to 400,000 viewers.

As soon as Su Tao gave the order, Sister Sun, the room manager, immediately popped up in the live chat.

"I've already blocked them and sent a screenshot of the scalper's account to Xingka's staff. I'm waiting for Xingka's response."

"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Sun." Su Tao smiled and nodded. After glancing at the comments on the screen praising "Sister Su is awesome," Su Tao didn't say anything more and lowered her head to look back at the computer screen playing the game animation.

On the screen, the monkey had already landed on a thick cloud on his somersault cloud. What the monkey faced was an endless array of 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, each wearing exquisite armor and looking extremely powerful.

Furthermore, Star Card has specially set up several close-up shots for these celestial soldiers and generals, allowing players to see the details of their armor and helmets.

After seeing these shots, not only the viewers in the live stream, but even Su Tao couldn't help but sigh.

"Star Card is really going all out, not even letting go of the armor on these soldiers, scrutinizing every single detail."

Unlike Su Tao, the comments posted by viewers in the live stream were even more frenzied.

"Ahhhhhh! Why didn't I get a beta test slot for the game?! I really want to play 'Black Myth: Wukong' too!!"

"Wow, you're starting with a Battlecry? Looks like you've mastered the essence of some players' gameplay."

"I must say, Star Card really pays attention to detail. These armors must be modeled after real-world armor. I wonder if they're Tang Dynasty armor or Ming Dynasty armor?"

"Waaaaah, mortal geniuses go through countless hardships to finally ascend to become immortals, only to become one of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers sent to fight against Monkey King."

"Stop talking, I think I saw Guan Yu, Wen Hou, and General Yue among the Heavenly Generals."

Just as the viewers in the live stream were having a heated discussion, the in-game camera had already focused on Monkey King's face again and he uttered his first line of dialogue so far in the game.

With just a few words, the viewers in the live stream learned that the game's timeline was set after Sun Wukong's journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures.

However, Sun Wukong was unwilling to serve as an official in Heaven, but only wanted to return to Flower Fruit Mountain to retire and live a carefree life. However, he was not trusted by the important figures in Heaven, who sent these shrimp soldiers and crab generals to scare Sun Wukong into becoming an immortal.

Upon hearing Sun Wukong's lines, viewers in the live stream couldn't help but type out a comment.

"Every celestial soldier and general who ascends to the immortal realm is an unparalleled genius among mortals, but in Brother Monkey's eyes, they are just a bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals."

"That really hits home, Monkey King."

"It can only be said that Monkey King has seen many geniuses, and geniuses are just the threshold to seeing Monkey King."

As the game's story continues, the camera slowly pans across the face of the giant spirit, then focuses on a black dog.

"The Sun-Devouring God!"

Someone in the live chat identified the dog as Erlang Shen's celestial hound, also known as the Sun-Swallowing God.

However, when the Celestial Hound fell from the sky and was about to rush towards Sun Wukong, it was blocked by a three-pointed double-edged sword that fell from the sky.

"You stupid dog, get out of the way!"

A voice filled with oppressive power rang out, striking the very souls of all the viewers in the live stream.

"I was defeated, but Erlang Shen narrowly triumphed over Zhenjun!"

"Hahaha, it really was a narrow victory over the True Lord."

The character Erlang Shen descends from the sky, and the character model alone is enough to show players the care that Star Card has put into it.

His imposing and handsome face certainly matches the temperament of Erlang Shen.

As Erlang Shen began reciting his lines, viewers in the live stream couldn't help but flood the chat with comments again when they heard that regardless of whether Erlang Shen won or lost his duel with Monkey King, he would raze Flower Fruit Mountain to the ground.

"The monkeys of Flower Fruit Mountain: What? Whether we win or lose, are we all going to die?"

"You monkeys and your monkey minions: Erlang Shen, how could you be so selfish!"

"Wait, something's wrong. According to Erlang Shen, isn't he the first boss we'll be facing later?"

"It seems that's really true!"

Su Tao looked at the comments on the live stream chat and couldn't help but show a hint of doubt and nervousness on her face.

"No way, they're giving us such a tough boss right off the bat? This is Erlang Shen!"

As the viewers in the live stream guessed, as the opening sequence gradually came to an end, operation buttons and a status bar appeared next to the computer screen.

In addition, a health bar with Erlang Shen's name written on it appeared at the bottom of the screen.

"Wow, they really are letting Sister Susu take on Erlang Shen one-on-one!"

"What are you afraid of? Erlang Shen's health bar is already exposed, just go for it!"

"That's right, Sister Su, don't be afraid. You should know that the character you're controlling right now is the Monkey King, Sun Wukong!"

"Sister Su, cheer up! Don't embarrass the Great Sage!"

Even with a barrage of encouraging comments on the screen, Su Tao's hands still trembled slightly when she placed them on the keyboard.

The reason is simple: the graphics of the Star Card are so realistic that Su Tao always feels like she is actually fighting Erlang Shen one-on-one.
