Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

February 1st, Friday…

Ghost General 2 was officially released!

Qiao Liang was more tired after arriving home last night. He had supper, water, and preloaded Ghost General 2 before going to rest.

Today, Qiao Liang woke up naturally. After having sufficient rest, he revived.

He glanced at the time. It was just past 9 AM.

Ghost General 2 was officially released at 10 AM. After having breakfast, they would start live-streaming Ghost General 2. At the same time, they would gather video materials to prepare for the new video. Perfect!

“It’s been a long time since I’ve lived a homebody’s life. Honestly, I’m not used to it.”

Qiao Liang ate his take-out and sighed silently. It seemed like the sky outside the window had changed. The morning sun seemed especially warm.

Oh, so it was because he rarely saw the morning sun. Sorry for disturbing.

Previously, Qiao Liang always slept until 11 in the afternoon. They would eat lunch together after waking up. Then, the beautiful day would start in the afternoon.

However, now, Qiao Liang’s face was pale as he slept. He felt like he had slept for a century. When he opened his eyes, it was only nine in the morning.

Obviously, his biological clock had been adjusted during the two months of Suffering Travels.

After getting used to waking up early, they would naturally enjoy the warm morning sun. It was obviously different from the afternoon sun. After falling in love with this feeling, they would naturally be filled with motivation.

After eating, Qiao Liang looked at the time. It was going to be broadcasted immediately!

He was actually a little excited after not live-streaming the game for so long.

Qiao Liang had already uploaded a post last night, announcing that he would be live-streaming Ghost General 2 at 10 AM this morning. Thus, not long after the live-stream started, a large number of fans flooded in.

“You just arrived home yesterday, and you’re already broadcasting this morning? You’re too hardworking. You’re definitely not Old Qiao. Tell me, who exactly are you?”

“The live-stream actually started on time without any doves? F*ck, something is wrong with this world!”

“It’s reasonable to suspect that Old Qiao was possessed by the demons on the deserted island during his Suffering Travels. Bold demon, show your true colors!”

“After this monster possessed Old Qiao, it must have wanted to hide and integrate into human society. However, I did not expect it to be exposed on the first day. Perhaps the monster thought that an UP Master should seriously make videos and live-streams every day. It did not expect humans to stand him up to such an extent. The monster actually exposed his tracks when he disguised himself according to normal working hours!”

“Demons are shocked, why are you humans not playing by the book?”

“Don’t engage in feudal superstitions and nonsense like that. Can you respect science? Old Qiao, if you’ve been kidnapped, blink and tell us where the hijacker is hiding and how much his account is. We’ll give him money!”

Qiao Liang did not know to laugh or to cry as he looked at the live-streamers.

Look at this group of people, trying to snatch the bamboo shoots!

They were both fans, why was the difference between them so huge?

Look at other people’s fans. Their own idol would be heartbroken if he accidentally cut a small hole. The fans would rush him to rest if he was slightly tired.

Even if the movie was not good, at least the fans would understand the efforts of their loved ones.

Look at his fans!

Sigh, I can’t compare, I can’t compare.

The key was that these fans seemed to be putting on a show on the surface, but they actually did not trust him!

Why did these fans think that I would only work hard if I was possessed by a monster and kidnapped?

I’m a very hardworking person, alright? I’m just not that hardworking!

How could Qiao Liang tolerate this? He immediately said, “Some people’s comments are too much! I, Teacher Qiao, don’t have much talent. However, I firmly believe that hard work can make up for my lack of talent! In terms of hard work, I’m definitely one of the best on Aili Island’s website!”

“Hehe, alright. Perhaps it was indeed because of physical and mental fatigue that my working hours were affected to a certain extent. However, it’s different now. I obtained dual training in my body and spirit during my torturous trip. I obtained the official recognition!”

“Now, my body and spirit have been adjusted to their best state. Next, I’ll show you what a workaholic is like. What a high-speed production team’s donkeys are like!”

The bullet screen comments expressed their disbelief.

“Good lord, hardworking can make up for your lack of self? How thick-skinned are you to say something like that?!”

“One of the top few hardworkers? Hmm… you’re too humble if you count backwards. There’s nothing wrong with that.”

“It’s impossible for the production team’s donkeys to lower their heads in shame. They probably could not help but laugh.”

“Therefore, Suffering Travels can indeed change the body and spirit and increase the work efficiency? That’s great. The next time Old Qiao slows down, we’ll apply on the official website of Suffering Travels. We’ll ask the official platform to directly capture him and modify him!”

“Let’s see how long each modification will last. Can it last three months?”

“Be confident. Three days at most.”

“Old Qiao, didn’t they say that there are medals and certificates for Suffering Travels? I think Big Boss Ruan has already posted it on Weibo. Not bad. What about yours? Do you want to share it as well?”

Qiao Liang cleared his throat and took the medal that he had carefully kept. “Hehe, this is my precious medal. Look at the details, the workmanship, the meaning of the symbol…”

He held the medal and gave a long speech.

After that, he took out the certificate, showed it in front of the camera, and then put it away.

“I’ve already shown you the medals and certificates. Actually, there’s nothing much to see. Suffering travel is more important to temper your body and spirit. Only people who have truly participated in it would understand this feeling.”

“Eh, we can play Ghost General 2 now. Let us officially start today’s live-stream!”

Qiao Liang did not show too many certificates because he had not thought about how to explain the concept of ‘Ascetics Suffering’ to his fans.

Many people on the bullet screen said that they did not see the certificate clearly, but Qiao Liang played dead and stopped worrying about this problem.

You want to know what’s written on the certificate? You can participate in the Suffering Travels! You’ll know once you participate.

…

Entering Ghost General 2 was an opening CG.

In the wasteland that looked like a burnt land, the sun hung high in the sky. The farmland was dry and cracked. Only desolate wild grass was still growing tenaciously. The unmanned bones were pecked and eaten by the crows.

White bones exposed in the wild, there was no sound in a thousand miles, it was an extremely apt picture.

All of a sudden, the crows pecking at the corpses seemed to hear something. Their dark green eyes turned as they flapped their half-rotted wings and flew into the air.

A soldier with a yellow scarf walked forward and broke the corpse on the ground, but he did not notice it.

He, or rather it, had a burly figure. However, on closer inspection, one would realize that this burly figure was more like a bloated after death. Dark green pus was flowing on his body, and his damaged armor was mostly filled with holes and wounds caused by swords and knives.

At its heart, there was a monster core emitting black smoke and a few layers of amulets, making the scene even stranger.

All of a sudden, a bullet whizzed by, piercing through its body and causing a huge amount of flesh and blood!

The yellow-scarved soldier let out an angry roar and looked in the direction of the bullet. However, before it could see it clearly, it was hit by the rain of bullets.

However, this was just a yellow-scarved soldier. More yellow-scarved soldiers quickly appeared in the camera. They were densely packed, causing one’s heart to race.

Immediately after, the camera zoomed in, showing the entire battlefield.

A large number of people were advancing towards the city in front of them. In the depths of the group, the Heaven Duke General Zhang Jiao sat in the middle and commanded the battle.

Its upper body had completely turned into a zombie or even a skeleton. Its lower body was completely fused with the altar by relying on flesh and paper.

It had a few thick demon horns on its head, and its empty eye sockets shone with a faint green fire. Four arms that were only bones and covered in talisman papers extended out from under the yellow robe that covered its entire body. They waved as if they were executing some secret technique!

The four arms of Zhang Jiao raised high up in the sky and let out a terrifying roar. All the soldiers of the Golden Crow seemed to have been beckoned by something. They shouted together and rushed towards the city in front of them!

However, on the other side, the volunteer army also appeared instantly. Both sides began to fight!

Many characters in the game appeared one after another. For example, the Demonic Lord Cao Cao led his subordinate biochemical transformation unit, the tigers and leopards, to charge forward. Xiahou Dun took the lead. The Dragon clan’s Martial Saint, Guan Yu, followed Zhang Fei to charge forward. There was also Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian, and so on. All the characters who had participated in the suppression of the Golden Crow appeared one after another.

At last, the Heaven Duke General Zhang Jiao roared angrily. The countless talisman papers on his body emitted a strange green fire. They burned up and in the few large pots on the battlefield, the dark green juice also began to steam. The smoke and steam from the talisman paper and the juice gathered in the air and mixed together. Finally, it became a downpour that poured down!

Peace Secret Art: Scattering Talismans!

The yellow-scarved soldiers on the battlefield became even more crazed. Not only that, the talisman papers on the bodies of these yellow-scarved soldiers also began to burn. The corpses on the ground suddenly emitted a strong killing aura. They gathered from the battlefield towards the corner, turning it into a huge monster dozens of feet tall!

At the same time, heroes from all over also successfully slaughtered their way into the main formation and faced the huge demonized horns.

The final battle was about to begin!

The entire video came to an abrupt stop with the impassioned background music. The title of the game appeared on the screen: Ghost General 2!

…

After watching the opening CG, Qiao Liang could not help but feel emotional. Tengda was indeed Tengda. No matter what game they made, the quality would definitely be good!

What’s more, this opening CG had indeed shown the background story of Ghost General very well.

Previously, Ghost General 1 was just a card game. Even though there were many outstanding original arts and background introduction of generals, it was still lacking in graphics.

However, now that Ghost General 2 had used a high quality CG to showcase the battlefield of the Yellow Wolf, there was naturally a strong visual impact!
