The audience in Lin Yi’s live stream had already told him about this.
Thus, he was not surprised.
“Good luck.”
“You’re quite calm. I can’t wait to start,” Meng Jinyang said.
“Why don’t we start now? I’ll try to kill you in one move. It’ll be more interesting for the viewers.”
“Don’t be anxious. I just completed my sky set. I have to get some equipment now.”
“I advise you to have some self-awareness. The things you can get in the auction house are all trash. It’s useless even if you equip them. Why are you so persistent?”
“Who said I’m going to the auction house to buy stuff?”
With that, Lin Yi said to the people in the live stream,
“What’s the best weapon these days? Where can I get it? Does anyone know?”
“The best weapon is the Taiji Heavenly Emperor Sword in his hand. You unlock it by finishing the abyss.”
Lin Yi checked. “According to the rules of this game, you can get it by opening a jar too, right?”
“It’s indeed possible, but the probability of getting it is very low. The server has been open for so long, but it seems that only one of those swords have been unlocked in this way. Even that story hasn’t been verified yet.”
“Brother Mask, are you still dreaming? You actually want to try to get a Taiji Celestial Emperor Sword from a jar? Isn’t this nonsense?”
“Please control yourself. Even if you try until the sky turns dark, you won’t be able to get it even if you go bankrupt in the process. You should go to the auction house and buy a decent weapon. Don’t think about such unrealistic things.”
“Since there’s a probability of it appearing, I have to give it a try. What if I hit?”
Meng Jinyang laughed when he saw Lin Yi about to open the jar.
“Brother, you’re really interesting. Have you never played this game before? Why do you dare to say anything that comes to your mind? If it was so easy to unlock, wouldn’t this weapon be more common?”
Lin Yi smiled. He wasn’t in a hurry at all. “I still have some time anyway. I have nothing to do, so there’s no harm in trying.”
With that, Lin Yi filled up on vouchers and went to the auction house. He bought all the game coins and a dozen epic jars.
This kind of stupid and rich person’s brainless operation made the people in the live stream complain.
He felt that this streamer was seriously ill.
Meng Jinyang lit a cigarette and looked at Lin Yi with a smile.
“Bro, please begin. We’re all waiting. Good luck. I hope you can unlock a weapon like mine.”
“Haha…”
The people in Lin Yi’s live stream laughed.
“I’m waiting for the streamer to go bankrupt.”
“It’s obvious that you’re a noob in the game. You haven’t seen how cruel the gacha gods can be.”
“If Brother Mask can unlock the Taiji Heavenly Emperor Sword, I’ll play this moment at my funeral.”
“What’s the big deal about playing it at your funeral? I’m in the toilet now. If he can really do this, I’ll do a live stream and eat sh*t upside down.”
Lin Yi smiled at the comments in the live stream.
“This is the first time I’ve seen someone offer to eat like you.”
With that, he casually opened an epic jar.
However, before that, Lin Yi pulled out the system page and opened the 10-minute lucky card.
[Lucky Card in effect. Time remaining: 10:00, 09:59, 09:58…]
After opening the canister, the icons of countless weapons flitted across the screen before freezing a few seconds later.
Then, the people in the live stream exploded in anger.
“What the f*ck is going on? The Taiji Heavenly Emperor Sword really appeared!”
Everyone who saw this scene was dumbfounded. Their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
The server had been open for such a long time, but there was only instance that this had ever happened in the entire local server. How could he have encountered such a small probability?
“My luck isn’t bad.” Lin Yi said calmly. He didn’t do anything extreme.
He had used his Lucky Card, so it was only natural to get such an outcome.
“F*ck, Brother Mask is awesome!”
“Everyone, stand up and salute Brother Mask!”
“Isn’t it just a Heavenly Emperor Sword? The great plagiarist also has one, and it’s even +19. Can you not be so shameless?” Meng Jinyang’s navy said.
“I agree with the comment above. He only got one Heavenly Emperor Sword, but everything else is trash. After summing it all up, Brother Mask’s character is still trash.”
He knew that these people were paid posters, but Lin Yi didn’t kick them. Instead, he smiled and said,
“Don’t be anxious. I bought so many jars. Let me just open them slowly.”
“Hehe, you were already lucky just now. Do you think you can get another Epic-ranked item? Dream on.”
“I won’t know until I try.”
With that, Lin Yi opened another jar.
A few seconds later, the scene froze.
“Damn, Death Shadow Jacket, another top-tier Epic item!”
...
There was a strange atmosphere in the live stream.
They didn’t know what to say.
Were they playing the same game as the masked man?
Because the Lucky Card only had a time limit of ten minutes, Lin Yi didn’t dare to waste any more time.
He had to finish unlocking all equipment within ten minutes.
Before the comments in the live stream could restart, Lin Yi unlocked another piece of top-notch epic-level equipment.
It made everyone in the live stream bow down in worship!
“What the f*ck is going on? Is he cheating?” Ma Weian cursed as he stood behind Meng Jinyang.
After opening more than ten jars, he had gathered the same equipment as Old Meng!
Who would believe this?
“Brother Ma, don’t worry. Even if he equips this equipment, it’s useless,” Liu Siyuan said.
...
“In terms of equipment strengthening, Old Meng Chao is far ahead of him, and his skills are also top-notch. There’s no doubt about the outcome of the competition.”
Ma Weian’s expression improved a lot. Fortunately, their agreement was that the loser would leave the platform. Otherwise, with the popularity he had won, it would be easy for him to crush Old Meng in the future.
“Brother Ma, don’t worry. Let him be smug for now. It’s impossible for him to defeat me.”
…
Because of the godly unlocks, Lin Yi’s live stream reached 2.4 million popularity!
Even some famous veteran streamers were not so popular.
Meanwhile, many people in Lin Yi’s stream changed their tune.
They no longer looked down on Lin Yi and even gave him advice.
“Brother Mask, although your equipment is the same as the other party’s, you haven’t strengthened it yet. The other party still has the power to insta-kill you. Quickly buy some protection vouchers and strengthen your equipment to +10. This way, it’ll at least be a little interesting. Perhaps you can last a little longer.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Buy the protection vouchers first and then go to that b*tch Callie. You have to strengthen it to +10!”
“Brother Mask, your luck is so good now. I suggest you open more jars and get more Epic-ranked items. Then, you can strengthen them to a higher level. That way, the chances of successful forging will be higher.”
Looking at the netizens’ suggestion, Lin Yi walked to the NPC in the game and said very pretentiously,
“Only the weak will use strengthening vouchers and pads. The truly awesome ones look for Callie to immediately start fighting.”
With that, Lin Yi threw the Taiji Heavenly Emperor Sword into the open slot and pressed the strengthen button without hesitation.
