Chapter 60: A Little Cow Sitting on a Power Line

You too?

Jing Yan was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What does that mean? Did your新手村 also suffer a Weird attack?"

"Ah? Not that, but our village had an earthquake. You don't know, that earthquake was super intense! Comparable to an 18-magnitude earthquake; houses collapsed in swathes, and quite a few players died too. The whole village is participating in the rescue now. If you hadn't called me, I would definitely be in there desperately doing tasks to earn Yang-Lifespan; this is a great opportunity."

After a pause, Pangzi hurriedly asked, "Right, what does Boss need me for? Hurry up and get it done so I can go back and keep playing. My account had a bit of an accident, and my Yang-Lifespan won't last until dawn."

So that was it.

Jing Yan calmed down a bit, but still frowned slightly.

Could it be that something will happen in every新手村 tonight?

This question, I'm afraid, will only be known after the other members of the studio log out of the game and organize the intelligence.

Suppressing his thoughts, he had Pangzi open the computer, while he downloaded the recording from his Game Watch onto the computer.

"Help me with the post-processing..."

As he spoke, Jing Yan played the game footage he had recorded.

"Just video post-processing?"

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Pangzi's tone.

If it weren't for the person in front of him being his Boss, he would have already walked away and gone back to continue playing the game.

Video post-processing—how could that be as important as what's happening in the game right now?

But once the video started playing, Pangzi's gaze was instantly captivated.

It was a group of villagers holding torches, surrounding a circular arena.

Amidst the interplay of light and shadow, two dark figures were engaged in a violent collision; the impact of fist meeting flesh was so shocking that Pangzi was left dumbfounded.

Especially when he saw that one of the dark figures was actually an existence with a huge hole in its head yet still full of vigor, his pupils constricted, and he blurted out.

"A Weird!"

"Correct! She is a Weird, called a 【Force-Driven Weird】. She fought two Postnatal Third-Rate martial artists—that is, two Captain-level existences in the village—and won, severely wounding both Captains."

"What?! This Weird is actually this strong!"

Pangzi had some concept of Captain-level combat power; they were almost the pillars of the village, yet they couldn't beat this Weird.

"That's not right, Boss. Didn't you say the Captains were defeated? Then who is fighting this Weird now?"

Facing Pangzi's confusion, Jing Yan fell silent for a moment, then looked up at the back in the video, saying with a complex expression.

"He is a player."

Hum!

Almost the instant Jing Yan's voice fell, Pangzi's brain went blank with a hum.

Coming back to his senses, he cried out involuntarily: "Impossible!"

Jing Yan watched Pangzi's intense reaction and gave a helpless, bitter smile.

If he could, he wouldn't want to believe that such a monstrous player already existed in the game.

But this was the truth!

After letting Pangzi calm down for a while, Jing Yan slowly recounted what had happened in the game.

"It actually, it actually turned out like this?!"

Pangzi widened his eyes, feeling deeply shocked.

There was actually a player who was already this powerful!

Going head-to-head with a Weird that even Captain-level figures couldn't handle! And trading blows back and forth!

"Keep watching. After you finish, I'll tell you how to handle the post-processing and video editing, as well as the effect I want to achieve."

"Mm-hmm..."

Pangzi said vaguely.

Actually, there was no need for Jing Yan to say anything; Pangzi's attention had already been completely captured by the video's content.

That wild, fist-to-flesh style of combat deeply attracted him, making his blood boil.

Up until now, players entering the game were all being slaughtered one-sidedly by the Weirds, without even a chance to resist.

Who would have thought that someone could actually fight against a Weird, and even kill one!

This is too amazing!

An idol, this is an idol!

Pangzi watched the video content in shock, his whole person incredibly excited.

In the video, the young man's back was once again trading fist-to-flesh blows with the Weird.

It was just that the camera angle was a bit unstable, shaking violently, which somewhat affected the viewing experience.

Then the idol traded a few more rounds with the Weird; several times, the damage dealt by the Weird made his heart jump, but the idol acted like nothing was wrong, returning to continue the fight in minutes.

Strong, strong to the point of invincibility!

But like this, it seemed he could only wear the Weird down; who knew how long it would take to kill the Weird.

Looking at the video length, Pangzi realized there must be some turn of events later.

Sure enough, the scene in the video changed.

The Guard Team threw their blades to form a blade array, the idol drew his blade for a great battle, and finally, after consuming something to restore internal energy, a brilliant Huoyandao instantly killed the Weird!

Oh... no, he followed up with more strikes later, but that really ruins the image; cut it, this part must be cut.

"Finished watching?"

Hearing the computer sound quiet down, Jing Yan emerged from behind, holding two cups of hot coffee.

"Finished!"

"How is it? What are your thoughts?"

"Awesome... too awesome! It's like a cow sitting on an electric wire, awesome with lightning! Is my idol really a player?"

Idol?

Jing Yan was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "He is indeed a player, and a professional one at that, called Yese Liming, and he is in the same village as me. What happened in the video is the eerie village-entry incident that Gu Yue Cun experienced tonight."

Eerie village-entry, the idol turns the tide!

Pangzi felt his blood boiling with excitement once again.

"I will definitely make the post-processing of this video infinitely perfect!"

"I believe in your ability, but don't rush; let me tell you my requirements."

Jing Yan was not doing charity work.

He founded Jingse Studio and entered "Blue Sea" to make a living.

Spending a heavy sum of 100,000 to obtain the video authorization from Fang Yue was all to build the studio's reputation.

Once there is a reputation, business will naturally follow.

In this regard, it was exactly the same as Fang Yue, only one studio spent a large sum of money to trade for fame, while the other relied on personal strength to trade for fame.

After listening to Jing Yan's requirements, Pangzi already understood the final video effect Jing Yan wanted.

However, when Jing Yan hesitated for a moment and briefly mentioned the idol's requirements, Pangzi's expression suddenly became strange.

"Idol... the idol's aesthetic... is so unique."

That's right, it could only be described as unique.

Special effects shouldn't just be flashy and dazzling, but rather well-placed decorations that highlight the theme.

If the post-processing and special effects were really added as the idol said, the finished footage would definitely be blinding.

"You handle it as you see fit; this video has only one purpose, and that is to make our studio's name known!"

"Understood!"

Jing Yan nodded, and seeing that Pangzi was already excitedly throwing himself into the video processing, he stopped disturbing his work.

Arriving at the balcony, he looked at the moon in the sky, silently lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, exhaled the smoke, and looked hazily at the bustling traffic below.

He was an ordinary office worker, but after years of 996, he had no prospects of getting ahead.

So he thought of starting a business, chose the gaming field he liked the most, and gathered a group of like-minded people to establish a game studio.
