Chapter 47 (1/2)
Wei Huo saw an altar after bumping his head into the wall. There were stone statues on the four corners of the altar. The statues were respectively the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermillion Bird, and the Black Tortoise[1]. The statues looked very realistic. They guarded the place, giving the altar a solemn and dignified aura. It filled people with a sense of awe.
Wei Huo walked onto the steps gradually and solemnly. He moved vigilantly forward to the altar step by step. He was afraid there would be hidden traps in the altar. Surprisingly, when Wei Huo arrived at the top of the altar, he discovered a game console.
Wei Huo was confused. “???”
Why was there a game console in such a solemn and dignified altar?
Wei Huo walked closer. ‘F*ck, it is the Subor [2]game console.”
The game console was connected to a CRT [3]television. The image displayed on the screen was very clear.
Wei Huo looked at the television screen. A tank and familiar sound effects greeted him.
Wei Huo was left speechless.
Could it be… Battle City[4]?
Wei Huo instantly knew that he was going to nail it, seeing that minigame. Somehow, players were always required to play classic minigames at caves that hold heritages, and the scores from the minigame would determine the completion rate of the inherited Cultivation Skill.
Wei Huo walked over, sat down, and grabbed the video game controller.
He then tapped on the game start button. Just as expected, the screen of the game started to change. The classic first level scene in Battle City came into his view.
Wei Huo was confused as he noticed the game contents were in Chinese.
‘Was God from the Z Country? Or did the system have an automatic translation function to allow people from any country and even any kind of creature, to understand the game’s content?’
Otherwise, how did the Demonic Ant Warlock obtain the heritage there?
Wei Huo thought to himself, ‘I obtained the Qi energy heritage because I’m a citizen of Z Country. If that was the case, could people from foreign countries obtain the Dou Qi heritage and the Magic heritage? Could it be that the reason those Demonic Ants had obtained the Qi heritage was because they had traveled across the Z Country?’
Wei Huo started playing the game. He had to familiarize himself with the games operation as he had not played that game for a long time. After that, he began to kill from all directions with his terrifying quick reaction ability.
After passing the first level, Wei Huo saw that he still had two lives. However, he felt that he did not need the second life at all.
With Wei Huo’s reaction speed, the game was a piece of cake for him.
“This is just a child’s play for me!” Wei Huo scoffed as he reached level nine.
As he finished his sentence, an airplane that could fly freely without being limited by the game’s landscape suddenly appeared on the map.
Wei Huo was confused. “???”
‘Why did an airplane appear in Battle City?’
Wei Huo immediately became serious and shot down all the airplanes. When he reached level 18, artillery soldiers carrying rocket launchers appeared on the map. Wei Huo had to control the tank and shoot down those rocket assisted projectiles. Otherwise, his base would have been bombed.
Wei Huo worked hard and finally reached level 27. At level 27, oceans, warships, aircraft carriers, countless artillery shells, missiles and airplanes, appeared on the map, and charged towards Wei Huo’s base.
Wei Huo was bewildered. ‘Was this really motherf*cking Battle City?’
At level 36, aliens appeared with countless oval-shaped spaceships attacking Wei Huo. They could even discharge lasers.
Wei Huo understood at that moment. It seemed like special freaky enemies would be added every time players successfully passed nine levels.
Wei Huo felt strange the more he played the game. Was this really not ‘The Rebirth of Battle City Fighting Against The Whole Universe’ game?
Wei Huo’s enemy turned into robots when he reached level 81.
