Chapter 308: Chapter 306: If I Guess Wrong, I’ll Cross-dress!

Translator: 549690339

Upon hearing the server mention that his competitor was an “assassin from the City of Night,” Ye Lang a bit big’s first reaction wasn’t to consider the potential difficulty of the task. Instead, it was—

Open the live streaming software!

Ye Lang a bit big often teamed up with Yi for shenanigans, which made the netizens in Yi’s live broadcast room quite familiar with him.

However, when it came to the entire live streaming circle, his popularity wasn’t high, and his fan base was even smaller; he could only be considered a small-time anchor who had to treat every live broadcast seriously.

Maintaining good live streaming results all the time was actually quite exhausting.

—Those anchors who didn’t need to think about anything, just follow their instincts and produce consistently good results were truly blessed by the heavens.

Unfortunately, Ye Lang a bit big wasn’t one of those anchors.

So his live streaming hours were usually in the afternoon and evening.

He rarely went live in the mornings when the audience count was relatively low, opting to save his energy.

But now, the time of the live streaming didn’t matter at all!

Did you hear what the server said?

“An assassin from the City of Night!”

That’s the City of Night!

If he didn’t ride this wave, he’d be struck by lightning!

Ye Lang a bit big quickly accepted the task and then quit the game to adjust the camera.

After checking the environment under the lens for the live broadcast, making sure that everything was in order, he couldn’t wait to log back into the game.

And then — the live stream began!

“Good morning, everyone!” Ye Lang had already switched on his energetic persona and greeted everyone enthusiastically.

“Emergency situation, sudden live streaming! Latest news from the City of Night!”

He quickly briefed the incoming audience on the situation:

The task required him to assassinate an arms dealer codenamed “Black Gun.”

However, this arms dealer had only recently arrived in the metropolis and intended to become the new arms supplier, but his exact location was still uncertain. Players would need to follow clues to find him.

Even if they found his location, the arms dealer was under the heavy protection of hundreds of subordinates.

As if that wasn’t difficult enough, an elite assassin from the City of Night was also targeting this man.

He had already crossed the borders of two cities and was killing his way there!

Without a doubt, he meant trouble!

After introducing the task, Ye Lang a bit big also speculated on how the plot would unfold based on existing information:

“Next, I’ll have a showdown with the strongest assassin from the City of Night!”

“We’ll go back and forth until we finally become friends.”

“In the end, faced with the task target protected by hundreds of thugs, we’ll have no choice but to work together and fight our way to the final task location for an earth-shattering battle and successfully kill the target.”

Not satisfied with merely predicting the course of the quest, Ye Lang a bit big suddenly got a flash of inspiration and assured his audience with a slap on his chest:

“I bet with you guys that this must be a very important NPC! When we enter the City of Night, it’s very likely that he’ll be our guide, even our plot driver, just like Firefox in ‘Assassins’ Alliance’!”

“You can record what I’m saying now, and if it doesn’t turn out this way, I’ll cross-dress on the spot! The game designers’ thought process is just too easy to guess!”

As soon as the flag for cross-dressing was set, the effect was immediate, and the live broadcast room’s discussion heat visibly rose by a big chunk.

Even Yi showed up in the live broadcast room to cheer him on, posting a conspicuous message: “By cross-dressing, do you mean a school swimsuit?”

Ye Lang a bit big was rendered speechless by this remark and finally squeezed out: “Well, that’s also an option…”

The audience in the live broadcast room barely had to think about it before collectively feeling that it would be a severe eyesore.

But would they just not look at this eyesore?

Of course not!

“I’ll keep my promise and record it!”

“It’s a done deal! This is a man’s promise!”

“Product Link [Silicone Padded Hips Men’s Cross-Dressing Camel Toe Underwear]”

…

Seeing this momentum, Ye Lang a bit big wasn’t satisfied: “What if I’m right, though?”

At this point, his live broadcast room administrator chimed in, fanning the flames: “Then would you bear to disappoint your adorable fans?”

Ye Lang a bit big looked speechless: “I can be very heartless! Let’s not waste any more time and get on with the quest! The truth will reveal itself in the end!”

The starting point of the task was a house by the docks.

Ye Lang a bit big sped all the way in his car and arrived at the somewhat worn-down house, only to find that it seemed like a big fight had just taken place there.

The gate had been rammed open by a car, which was parked in the yard, and the door was riddled with bullet holes.

Stepping inside, the place was a complete mess.

Five gangsters who had met quite violent ends were scattered around the corners of the room.

Instead of instantly disappearing, the dead criminals remained, either because the battle had just ended or because the mission was designed this way for him to get a clear understanding of the situation.

“Am I too late?” Ye Lang a bit big was dumbfounded, “Then what about the questline? Is it broken? That can’t be, right?”

Just as he was puzzled, two cars pulled up at the entrance, and eight armed thugs got out, yelling as they did: “Who dared to kill our guys? You’re courting death!”

Seeing Ye Lang a bit big who peeked out to see the situation, they opened fire without a second thought.

“Well, well! Clues delivered right to my doorstep!”

After a fierce battle, Yelang a bit big took a risk to capture a survivor and requested him to lead the way to headquarters.

However, this person didn’t know the so-called “headquarters,” but could only reveal the location of their base.

Yelang had no other choice and thought having a clue was still better than having none, so he pushed the hostage to find their next clue.

Finally, he arrived at the place, only to find a chaotic scene and the corpses of more than ten gang members scattered inside and outside the buildings.

Just as he thought the clues were cut off again, he “luckily” found a rival gang member who was investigating the situation…

So, once again, he got a clue and went to the next base.

…

In this way, he trailed behind the mysterious assassin from the City of Night, desperately trying to catch up but never quite able to!

He even wanted to complain to Cloud Dream, isn’t this just messing with the player’s mindset?!

Moreover, what’s going on with that assassin from the City of Night? 𝒻𝘳𝓮ℯ𝑤𝘦𝒷𝓷𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Am I not driving fast enough to catch up to your killing spree?!

I even tried speeding, but I still couldn’t catch up!

Can’t you just wait for me?!

Yelang a bit big grew increasingly anxious – this situation seemed to deviate from his previous guess!

What mutual defeats, what enemy-turned-friendship…

Couldn’t even see the car’s taillights, let alone a face-off!

Absurd!

Under such frustrating circumstances, Yelang a bit big eventually traced the final task location – a heavily guarded factory resembling a fortress.

Looking from the outside, although guards were stationed every few steps and seemed very vigilant, at least –

They were all alive!

Although the factory was a bit messy, it had not suffered any severe damage.

Yelang a bit big breathed a sigh of relief: “Finally, I caught up!”

Auto-save had been activated, indicating that this area had become an instance zone.

Moreover, the checkpoint was in the three-story building at his feet, right in front of the factory’s side door.

“Great! It’s finally my time to shine!”

With an epic mission related to the City of Night and Yelang a bit big’s bet, the live streaming room’s popularity soared to new heights.

Yelang a bit big thought about the bet he’d made and felt a little uneasy.

But the skyrocketing popularity also gave him tremendous courage, making him a bit overexcited.

So he chose the highest-damage strategy –

Gun in hand, Unparalleled head-on attack!

Today is the day I take off!

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

“Ratatatata—”

“BOOM!”

…

After a brief commotion, Yelang a bit big respawned at the checkpoint.

After a moment of silence, he looked at the small pistol in his hand and threw it on the ground without warning, “Damn it! This crappy little gun, am I just supposed to go and die?!”

Furious!

But there was no other choice.

Picking up the gun, he continued to think of a way.

This time, it wasn’t an intern’s training task but a challenging level crafted by Randall himself.

Regardless of whether they were interns or not, all members of the operation team participated, even considering it as a small exam to assess their development capabilities.

This factory, in terms of difficulty and richness, was something previous “epic missions” couldn’t compare to!

Going all out?

Stop dreaming!

“If charging head-on doesn’t work, it’s time for Plan B.” Yelang a bit big decisively changed tactics, angrily shaking for more players, “You guys want to bully me with numbers? Just wait!”

If it were under normal circumstances, Yelang a bit big would definitely not shake for more people so quickly. He would prefer to challenge several times and experience Cloud Dream’s carefully crafted high-difficulty combat.

But not this time, the stakes were too high this time.

Gathering more people quickly, charging in, and directly confronting the task target, maybe they could intercept the assassin from the City of Night, “John Wick”, and make a friend.

Even if they couldn’t become friends, as long as they recognized each other’s faces, his chances of getting someone to guide him around the City of Night in the future would be much higher!

Even if, again, Cloud Dream gave out “City of Night” information merely for fun and to show how powerful the assassins from the City of Night were, this bet was already seemingly lost.

At least he could delay the embarrassment until the City of Night was released!

Perhaps by the time the new game was launched, and everyone was excited with their minds filled with playing the game, they would forget about this bet?!
