Chapter 491 (2/2)
“As expected of Old Sly Zha Feng. I can’t say that I’m not surprised. In any case, Yan Qingmeng is my true love. Walking under an umbrella in the rain, the CG where I embraced her. My heart is exploding with love and happiness!”
“The Duel. Hehe, I really can’t wait for this decisive battle between two masters. Is it true that if you’ve beaten Li Xiye before, you can replace Li Xiye on that battle?”
“Ah, I’ll admit that this plot twist is amazing, but it’s tragic. Is the Nameless Swordswoman really a villain? I really don’t want to believe such a thing!”
“She’s most definitely a villain. Look at how she dresses. A mysterious gray coat, a hood, a blindfold over her eyes, grayish-white hair. She totally looks like a villain. According to Yan Qingmeng, countless martial artists have died by her hands. Most importantly, the bodies of those martial artists were also cut open and preserved, and she even has a museum specifically for human anatomy. She’s way too evil!”
“Sure enough, all of this is due to Old Sly Zha Feng’s wickedness. He deliberately created a female character that everyone would find to be cute and fall in love with. Then, he would have them work hand in hand with her, bonding over their mutual experiences, together. Finally, he gives the players a massive slap and wakes them up. He would reveal to us all that this girl is a cultist, a terrorist. She took the initiative to approach the players, purely so that she could make use of them! If that does not make her a disgusting person, what else could she be?”
“My Lady Yan Qingmeng is the best! Whoever who dares go against my lady Yan Qingmeng, will get their skulls split open by me! As for the blind villain, get out of my sight, the further the better!
…
The public went wild. The nameless girl was crucified up the hall of shame. Wu Shun was the one to blame for this as he was too far ahead in the game. If some other players ever took another route, they would realize that, in actuality, the righteous deity Yan Qingmeng was the authentic devil!
Jane Doe Su was not a cultist, but one of the greatest pioneers of the era! She spoke for the people who were all the way at the bottom of the community!
Of course, whether it being Yan Qingmeng, Jane Doe Su, or even the Sword God Li Xiye, none of their endings would be good
Do not forget – in this DLC; the hands of Su Li had molded all these characters. However, it was precisely because of Su Li that their good looks had boosted them up to the peak!
All sorts of misunderstandings led Wu Shun’s viewers further astray. They were swearing at the Old Sly Zha Feng for inserting such a plot twist into the game so slyly. However, they did not expect that this plot twist would be closely followed by an even bigger plot twist. If not, how else would this game become iconic?
Yan Qingmeng was also about to pull off the most devious about-face ever!
When Wu Shun reached “The Duel,” it was a sign that this DLC was finally coming to an end. This was the most anticipated moment in the entire DLC!
In a dress whiter than the first snow, without her blindfold, the female sword master made a glorious appearance. What was her past like?
Translation note :
[1] In “Dark Souls III,” after a player defeats the final boss “Soul of Cinder,” they will then have the choice of a few different endings. One of the choices allow them to “link the fire.” Often, this choice will result in a bad ending. Due to this, players realized that this was a trick that was set up by the game producer. Thus a thread came up about how people “would not link the fire,” and it went viral.
