Chapter 292 - A Little Game - the King of Fighters

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

While Gongsun Chui and Gongyi Xiu played the Legend of Mir 2 sulkily, Mr. Fang was in a good mood, “Enough! I finally have enough money to buy the King of Fighters and the joysticks!”

“What are those?” People like Liu Ningyun and Huangpu Tao, who were visiting Mr. Fang in his Qzone, looked baffled.

“The King of Fighters? Is it related to King Warrior?”

“Look at how smug you are!”

“What’s the use of this thing?” They watched Mr. Fang while he attached the joysticks to the computer that he had bought earlier.

“Computer?” Ruan Ning had been wanting to ask this question long ago. “Why did you buy a computer in Qzone? It’s so expensive!”

“I’m gonna use it to play games,” Fang Qi answered.

“Play games?!” The others were at a loss for words. “Can we play the Legend of Mir 2 in here?”

“There’s no Legend of Mir 2 here,” Fang Qi said, “There are some small games to train your reflexes and combat rhythm, but they are not important.”

He clicked open the list of items in the shop and pointed at some of the items, saying, “Look at this fist technique scroll.”

“Ugh? Why is it grey? There’s a lock on it.”

“Because we have to unlock it.” Fang Qi flipped through the following pages of the shop. “The grey items all need to be unlocked. For example, the Mind-Cleansing Tune needs the guzheng skill to unlock it; the Wind Pattern Elixir’s receipt needs a certain level of elixir-making skill to unlock it; this...”

He pointed at the King of Fighters’ page and said, “These needs this computer game to unlock.”

“We can do this?” They listened to Fang Qi’s explanation of the small clues in Qzone. “However, the fist techniques are for warriors; what can they do for us?”

“You don’t have to play the game if you don’t want to,” Mr. Fang said. “Anyway, I’m going to play it. Do any of you want to try it?”

After the familiar music, the game came to the interface to choose characters. Mr. Fang found that this game was also a remake, and its quality was much more exquisite than the original version.

“How do we play?” The others all looked shocked at this weird item in Qzone.

“Want to try it?” Mr. Fang showed them a warm smile.

All of them expressed that they didn’t want to accept Mr. Fang’s invitation.

“The friends in Dajin are more reliable.” Fang Qi rolled his eyes at them and opened QQ.

[Young Master Song!]

Song Qingfeng: [I’m playing the Legend of Mir 2. What’s up?]

Fang Qi: [Come and play the King of Fighters.]

Song Qingfeng: [What’s that? Another new game? (Husky’s disdainful face) I have no money, Sir!]

Fang Qi: [It’s free this time!]

Song Qingfeng: [Really?]

Fang Qi: [Of course. I have even prepared a pot of Green Spiritual Tea. Are you coming?]

Fang Qi received a basic ‘Okay’ sign in QQ.

Soon, Song Qingfeng arrived briskly with Lin Shao and Xu Luo, and Fang Qi introduced the game to them.

After Fang Qi’s explanation, they were surprised, “We can play computer games this way?!”

“The characters are the same as a puppet, right?” Song Qingfeng moved the joystick and watched the figure in the game move under his control. “Each command corresponds to each move... It seems more complicated than the mouse and keyboard play style of Resident Evil and Counter Strike...”

Song Qingfeng chose the character of Kyo Kusanagi and began to try the moves...

Down Forward + Weak Punch – 114 Shiki: Ara Kami

After 114 Shiki: Ara Kami connected, Down Forward + Weak Punch – 128 Shiki Kono Kizu!

“We can make moves this way?!” He rolled the joystick for two and half circles and saw a light flash on the screen before flames appeared on Kyo Kusanagi’s hands.

Then, he shot out a big flame. “Wow! This can burn a lot of HP!”

“These strong and aggressive moves suit me!” Lin Shao copied the move of raising flames in his hands and yelled as the character did on the screen!

“Very aggressive!”

While watching them, the people from the Morning Star Sea Realm looked contemptuous. “So silly...”

Xu Luo asked immediately, “Can I learn this?!”

“Ugh... Maybe.” After all, Shingo Yabuki could use all of Kyo Kusanagi’s moves. The only thing was that he didn’t have the bloodline of the Kusanagi Family so that he couldn’t use the Kusanagi Flames.

On the other hand, these guys had warrior qi, and it was hard to say what they could create.

“Come on! I’ve finished testing the moves!” Snickering, Song Qingfeng looked at Mr. Fang who had been beaten so hard by him that he had only a sliver of HP left. “Let’s begin the fight!”

“Ara Kami! Kono Kizu!” Song Qingfeng followed the rules and launched his attacks.

Mr. Fang took Iori Yagami, and he moved his body, dodging Kyo Kusanagi’s attacks. Then, with a shake of his joystick, Iori Yagami grabbed Kyo Kusanagi when the latter was off balance and tossed him to the side.

Strong claw!

A light flashed across the screen, and he launched Kin 1211 Shiki Ya Otome.

“How come I can’t move?!” Song Qingfeng moved the joystick wildly and slammed on the buttons. “Hit! Hit! Hit! Fight back!”

On the screen, Iori Yagami’s claws moved violently, and Kyo Kusanagi’s blood gushed out. Even though they were separated from the characters by the screen, the image looked extremely real, and it was an exciting sight.

Furthermore, the System had adjusted the moves and combos, and they were used as logically and smoothly as possible!

Each strike landed on the flesh, and they were vicious.

Finally, Iori Yagami grabbed his opponent and slammed the latter’s head on the ground. Looking at the purple flames covering almost half of the screen which kept shaking, the viewers were dumbfounded!

Kyo Kusanagi who was played by Song Qingfeng got up from the ground but received another round of heavy beatings of consecutive punches and kicks, and he fell to the ground!

“Hahahaha...” On the screen, Iori Yagami pushed his fingers into his blood-red hair and laughed hysterically.

“F*ck! This guy is wild!”

“That claw technique was so powerful!”

“Can we learn that?!”

The three guys were eager to learn.

“Young Master Song is trash; he couldn’t even defeat his opponent who had only a trace of HP left. Let me try!” Lin Shao wanted to play the next round.

Behind them, people like Huangpu Tao and Liu Ningyun, who were only new players of the Legend of Mir 2, were baffled. “Games can be played this way?”

Then, Mr. Fang explained to them the advanced playing methods.

In fact, combos could be achieved in the real world, but they couldn’t be used as smoothly as in the King of Fighters.

After all, warriors and cultivators understood things much faster than ordinary people, and they soon mastered the key points.

“It sounds interesting,” Ruan Ning murmured to herself. “It feels like a chess game in which you must predict your opponent’s intention before you make your moves. You must calculate what to do after you are attacked and what to do if your prediction is wrong...”

Liu Ningyun said, “It sounds to be a game of depth...”

“Yeah,” Huangpu Tao nodded and said, “When you meet a rival on your own level, there will be many battles on the psychological level. During a chess game, you have time to consider your next move. But in this game, if you take too much time to think, your opponent will overwhelm you with a storm of attacks... Interesting.”

“Shall we try it?”
