Chapter 33 I Interpret Your Dream
Meanwhile, on the other side...
Luxury View Apartments, 16th floor.
Qian Haoyu, who loves playing games, clicked on a game called "Persist to the End?"
As the game started, a disdainful smile played on his lips.
"I heard this game is touted as the 'most difficult masterpiece'? I'd like to see just how difficult it is."
He recently saw a post on a forum titled "[Only a real man can beat 'Persistence to the End']", and the comments below were all:
"What kind of game is this? Is it even playable?", "I couldn't even beat the first monster in three hours...", "Is the developer trying to drive me crazy and make me inherit my Alipay account?"
Qian Haoyu ignored these comments complaining that things were too difficult.
Because he has always been quite confident in his gaming skills—there is no game he cannot beat in an hour.
How could someone like him be afraid of such an obscure little game?
The game begins with a heartwarming story about a father and daughter.
While playing with his daughter, Qian Haoyu learned the basic operations—moving, jumping, and hooking.
Because he didn't like watching the plot and only liked fighting and killing, Qian Haoyu chose to long-press to speed up and skip when the plot reappeared.
So, not long after, he arrived at the elevator of the arms dealer's base, which was also the place where he fought the first elite monster.
"That's it?" When attacked, Qian Haoyu was prepared and immediately controlled his character to dodge.
The subsequent destruction of the site also caused him to die several times.
But his gaming talent was indeed impressive; he figured out how to break the deadlock faster than the others, and soon escaped from the elevator.
"It's just so-so," Qian Haoyu said dismissively.
With the ceiling above his head smashed, Qian Haoyu and the enemy entered into formal combat.
In this battle, Qian Haoyu died about ten times.
Although he was a little annoyed, it was still within Qian Haoyu's acceptable range.
When the eleventh battle began, he narrowly defeated the enemy.
"Phew... okay, it's a little difficult." Qian Haoyu breathed a sigh of relief. "But this won't stump me. I feel like what those people on the forum are saying is an exaggeration."
As he spoke, he had no idea what he was about to face.
Qian Haoyu's relaxed and disdainful attitude began to change slightly when he encountered the parkour challenge at the military base.
"It feels like another tutorial level..." Qian Haoyu said thoughtfully.
"It's just some basic stuff, I could do it with my eyes closed..."
Before he finished speaking, he jumped onto the first mobile platform.
The platform suddenly accelerated, catching Qian Haoyu off guard.
"Holy shit!"
The brigadier fell straight into the trap below, and a line of slightly mocking text appeared:
【you are dead】
Qian Haoyu paused for two seconds, then laughed out loud: "Interesting, first impression kill, huh? Okay, I'll get serious."
He clicked "Retry from checkpoint," and his character reappeared at the starting point.
This time he was much more careful, observing the platform's movement patterns closely:
The first platform will suddenly accelerate half a second after the player jumps onto it.
If you stay too long, your character will be pushed off.
In other words, players must jump to the next fixed platform before accelerating.
Qian Haoyu held his breath.
Jump, land firmly, then jump again.
This time, he passed the first obstacle with ease.
"See that? That's called adaptability," he said smugly, gesturing with his chin.
He even wanted to start a live stream to mock the noobs on the forums who said the game was too difficult by showcasing his amazing skills.
What follows is a series of regular jumps, with five fixed platforms spaced evenly apart.
Qian Haoyu passed easily.
"It's too easy. This game is only this difficult, so why are so many people complaining that it's hard? Are they all shills?"
Qian Haoyu said this.
Little did they know, this was Chu Xiao's final act of tenderness towards the players.
The third area came into view.
It was a spiraling structure consisting of seven moving platforms that rotated and moved at different speeds and in different directions, with sharp spikes occasionally emerging from between them.
Qian Haoyu flexed his fingers: "It's a little challenging, but not that difficult."
He maneuvered the brigadier to jump onto the first clockwise rotating platform, calculated the timing, and jumped when the platform reached its highest point, landing steadily on the second counterclockwise platform.
The third platform is a floating type; he waits for the platform to rise to its peak—
"Jump!"
The brigadier general's figure traced an arc in the air before gliding down the edge of the platform.
"Holy crap?" Qian Haoyu's eyes widened. "The judgment is that strict?!"
【you are dead】
Qian Haoyu's eye twitched: "I jumped too early, let's try again."
On his third attempt, he waited a moment longer on the third platform and landed successfully.
The fourth platform moved horizontally, simple. The fifth platform began to rotate rapidly; he concentrated, calculated the right moment, and jumped—
"Whoosh!"
A sharp spike suddenly popped out from under the platform.
The brigadier was pierced; the challenge failed.
【you are dead】
"When the hell did these spikes appear?!" Qian Haoyu slammed his hand on the table. "They weren't there the last few times!"
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the spikes appeared randomly.
Some platforms will display a pop-up message, while others will not.
Therefore, players need to rely on their reflexes to decide whether or not to use the robotic arm to dodge.
Qian Haoyu took a deep breath and told himself to stay calm. This was just a disgusting little trick by the producers.
On his sixth attempt, he passed the first five platforms and arrived at the sixth—a platform that would suddenly drop.
He was startled, but fortunately, he had a strong mentality. As the platform plummeted, he swung out the robotic arm and used its swinging ability to wait for the platform to rise again.
Just then, a purple light bullet shot out from the left wall without warning.
"Holy shit!"
The brigadier was hit by a light blast and fell.
【you are dead】
The seventh time, the eighth time, the ninth time...
【you are dead】
The twenty-first time, the thirty-first time, the forty-fifth time...
【you are dead】
Qian Haoyu couldn't remember how he got through that spiral area; he only remembered that his fingers were trembling slightly when he finally jumped onto the last platform.
"Ha, haha..." Qian Haoyu panted, chuckled dryly, wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead, and still stubbornly said, "Nothing special."
He glanced at the time; it had taken him about half an hour to cover this small area.
"..."
Qian Haoyu fell silent after seeing the time taken.
No matter how stubborn he is, he cannot change the established facts.
Such a small area, which should normally only take a few seconds to pass through, actually took him half an hour?!
"Game producer Chu Xiao! I'll explain your dream!"
Qian Haoyu started cursing.
There were quite a few players who started swearing at him at the same time.
And these players are continuously providing Chu Xiao with souls.
As for the producer who has been criticized by countless people, what is he doing right now?
—Actually, he didn't do anything; he was just using the Myriad Soul Banner to add points.
He aims to reach the Foundation Establishment stage in one fell swoop and defeat his brother, who is obsessed with his sister and lacks any sense of martial ethics.
