24: Why don't you just rob it?

"Victory!"

"Yeah!" Tong Ye had won another game. "Let's take a break, let's take a break. I'm not playing for now."

"My mom is calling me for dinner."

A flurry of voices immediately came from the other side of the microphone.

"I'm logging off too."

"Playing again tonight?"

"Sure, sure!"

Tong Ye logged out of the game and took her phone to eat, scrolling through the trending searches on the Social Media Platform app while she ate.

This software was originally converted from the Blue Star Global Instant Knowledge Network, but now everyone basically just calls it Social Media Platform.

The trending list was basically just celebrities, news about upcoming TV dramas, and other general news.

After playing around for a while and just about to exit, she suddenly remembered to search for the keyword "honor of kings".

Unexpectedly, one person popped up in the search results.

"God of Games?" Tong Ye frowned as she looked at it. "Why does this look so familiar?"

Plus, this name is so edgy!

And right below it was the tag: Producer.

She clicked on it to take a look. "So, he's the Producer of honor of kings!"

This guy had only posted one message in total, stating that he was the Producer of honor of kings and hoping everyone would have fun playing.

Now, there were already hundreds of replies below it.

Tong Ye opened it to take a look.

[Confetti! You finally have a lan zhi account!]

[When are you updating with a new map?]

[It's hard to imagine that this game was made by a student from the Game Production Department who is still in school. It's so much better than most games on the market, keep up the good work!]

[To think there are so few followers, how miserable. Dropping a follow.]

[Take me as your apprentice, I can spoil you and teach you all the various heroes.]

The comment section was essentially everyone talking about their own things. Tong Ye exited and casually clicked follow.

Just as she was about to exit the Social Media Platform, a new notification suddenly popped up.

[The person you follow, God of Games, has posted a new message~]

Tong Ye clicked back in, and what greeted her eyes was a long block of text, an image, and a video.

The image showed a man who looked quite weathered. He was half-crouched, holding a large blue blade in his left hand. His hair was spiked high, and the beard on his face looked like it had the potential of a homeless person's.

There was a cross-shaped scar on his cheek, giving him a faint sense of melancholy.

Only then did Tong Ye look at the message.

[God of Games: New Hero Debut — The brand new jungler hero, Miyamoto Musashi, is coming soon. Control the entire field with Niten Ichi-ryu.]

"Huh? A jungler hero?"

In reality, they weren't very clear about junglers yet, even though a high-level player had previously posted about the importance of the jungle area on the forum.

But in practice, there were still very few jungler players.

After all, there was only one jungler hero: Ake.

As for why Ye Bai chose to name her Ake even though honor of kings initially released her as Jing Ke, it was to avoid trouble.

Since honor of kings would have to change the names later anyway, he simply did it all at once.

It's just that at this moment, Ake's skills were still in their earliest version.

Tong Ye pondered for a moment before clicking on the video to watch it.

The video showcased the hero's skills. The First Skill released a whirlwind forward, knocking up enemies in its path and dealing physical damage.

The Second Skill dashed forward a short distance, granting a shield upon hitting an enemy, which could stack up to three times.

The Ultimate skill was Niten Ichi-ryu, where Miyamoto locked onto a target and descended from the sky, knocking up enemies in the area and dealing high damage while entering a dual-wielding state.

"Looks pretty interesting," Tong Ye commented.

She wondered when it would go live.

Just as she was about to type to ask, she saw that the God of Games had posted several more messages in a row.

"So many? Has this guy gone crazy?"

She backed out to look at them one by one.

The second one was the release of a new mage hero named Qin Shi Huang, which required Coupons to purchase.

Tong Ye praised it highly. "Finally, I don't have to save up Gold Coins!"

God knows how painful it was for them to save up Gold Coins; up until now, she had barely managed to buy a few heroes.

Next up were the new skins: Liu Shan's "Heroic Cat Ambition" skin for 288 Coupons.

As well as Bian Que's "Crimson Pupil" skin for 888 Coupons, and Ake's "Heart Nursing" skin for 888 Coupons.

Finally, there was an event: log in for seven consecutive days and accumulate a total recharge of 100 yuan to get the In-game character's "Rose Lover" skin for free.

Tong Ye: "Releasing so many skins all at once."

Current players wouldn't feel like honor of kings was robbing them; they would only be happy that new skins were released.

Because there were still too few skins in honor of kings right now, and buying the few that were available wasn't expensive.

After reading, Tong Ye immediately shared the news to the game group and posted it on the forum as well.

Very quickly, Ye Bai's lan zhi account gained a large number of new followers, and the comments under the post were growing by leaps and bounds.

[Top up 100 and get that pink skin for free, feels like such a good deal. That means I can buy an 88 skin and get another skin for free.]

[Which one should I buy? I really like the look of Ake's "Heart Nursing" skin, but I don't know how to play Ake. *Crying*.]

[I think wearing a 288 skin is pretty good too.]

[Why do I have to pay to buy the new hero Qin Shi Huang? Are his skills very strong? Can I win if I buy him?]

[Qin Shi Huang looks very strong just by looking at his skills, his ultimate is so long-range! I'm buying him!]

[Can you release some cute heroes?]

[So it was releasing new heroes? I thought it would be a new map. *Surprised*.]

At this moment, Ye Bai was in the process of releasing the two new heroes, Miyamoto and Qin Shi Huang.

As for the skins, he planned to release them at midnight, and the In-game character event would also start at midnight.

Players who wanted to get the skins quickly would naturally stay up late to wait, and those who weren't as anxious could wait until they woke up the next morning to get them.

Making players stay up a bit late and have some anticipation for honor of kings meant that players would be less likely to leave honor of kings because they had invested something into it.

Otherwise, why did so many people criticize honor of kings in the previous world, yet so many still played it?

It was all because they kept uninstalling and reinstalling, unable to let go.

Those times spent staying up late playing together, those accounts they had spent money on, those moments when they were happy because they won.

They were all memories!

Ye Bai chuckled twice; next, he should have a large amount of profit coming in.

However, he also planned to introduce Ranked Matches in about ten days or so.

Originally, the game he made had a Ranked Match mode from the beginning, but it had always been grayed out and locked.

The players at the beginning were all newbies; opening Ranked Matches would just be noobs fighting noobs.

It was better to wait until the streaming started, and then unlock Ranked Matches.

This way, the Streamer's broadcasts would also be more worth watching.

Ye Bai had planned everything out completely, and at this moment, the forum and players everywhere were discussing the newly released heroes.

Tong Ye quickly logged into the game and happened to see that Miyamoto Musashi and Qin Shi Huang had gone live.

"What? Miyamoto Musashi costs 18,888 Gold Coins? Why doesn't the God of Games just go rob someone!"

She took a look at her pathetic amount of Gold Coins, then decisively chose to spend money to buy Qin Shi Huang.

"So domineering!" Tong Ye looked at Qin Shi Huang's model.

There was even Qin Shi Huang's voice in her ear: "Throughout heaven and earth, I alone am the honored one!"

"Let's play a round, let's play a round!"
