Black Tech Internet Cafe System
Chapter 161: Hooked Nalan Hongwu

At this moment, Nalan Hongwu and Elder Fu came into the shop.

The moment that they walked in, An Huwei and the others also came from outside.

Nalan Hongwu noticed the announcement on the small blackboard and asked, "Today's new items?"

"Jade Dynasty?" Nalan Hongwu stroked his beard and said, "This name sounds grand."

[TL Note: Jade Dynasty is one of the names for Zhu Xian. Its literal translation is slaying immortal.]

"What's a TV series?" he asked.

Fang Qi repeated the explanation that he made to Dong Qingli and others.

"We can see the real setting of a novel?" Nalan Hongwu glanced at Dong Qingli and Ye Xiaoye, asking, "Have you finished watching it?"

"How was it? Is it worth the crystals you paid?" Behind him, An Huwei walked up. "The name sounds very grand. Is it better than the Legend of the Sword and Fairy?"

"I don't know if it's better than the Legend of the Sword and Fairy." Dong Qingli hadn't reached the last part of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy yet, but she was excited after just watching four episodes of Jade Dynasty. "But the Green Cloud Faction in Jade Dynasty is also powerful! The Green Leaf Ancestral Master's swordsmanship is mighty, and it looks celestial. I think he's almost an immortal! Besides, we can observe his godly sword techniques at close range!"

"Really?!" They sounded interested since watching super masters battle at close range wasn't something that one could buy with money!

For the people like An Huwei and Nalan Hongwu, the higher their realms were, the more difficult it was for them to increase their strength. It would be worthwhile if they could observe battles of powerful masters and gain some inspiration!

They had this purpose in mind while they played games like the Legend of the Sword and Fairy since gaining levels alone wasn't so important to them.

"Of course!" Ye Xiaoye said smugly, "Besides, the story is fascinating, and I think it's as good as the Legend of the Sword and Fairy!"

"The Super Theater now has a new function that allows you to eat snacks while watching the series. It's super cool!" Dong Qingli said, "You can enjoy today's new item Coke while you watch Jade Dynasty. The games don't have this function!"

Nalan Hongwu and An Huwei were tempted, and they exchanged a look. "Shall we... try it?"

"Let's try it," Ouyang Zhen said, "I trust the quality of items in this shop."

They paid and then each sat before a computer with a bottle of Coke in hand.

"Wow! The taste is cool!" Before the TV series began, An Huwei took a sip of Coke. "It tastes like Sprite, but this is richer and more lingering! Nice! Nice!"

"With the Sprite gone, we now have Coke!" Nalan Hongwu also took a drink. "After drinking it, I feel much more better! This is good! Hahaha! It's worth its price!"

Ye Xiaoye snickered cunningly when she saw them beginning to watch Jade Dynasty.

On the other side, Jade Dynasty began!

[Nature is indifferent; it treats the creation like sacrificial straw-dogs!]

"Nature is indifferent; It treats the creation like sacrificial straw dogs?" Nalan Hongwu tried to understand this sentence and found it deep and mysterious. The literal meaning was easy to understand, but the hidden meaning was profound.

This sentence was the opening of Jade Dynasty!

The first episode was also the most enthralling one, which was about the decline of the Green Cloud Faction to the emergence of the Green Leaf Ancestral Master. In one episode, the vicissitude of a major faction in more than 2,000 years was revealed to the audience!

As time went by, the Green Cloud Faction had become the No. 1 Faction in the world, and then the scene turned to the two boys.

The historical events and the virtual reality setting drew the audience into a journey of the mind. While they sank into the story, they felt like they came down from the peak of the mortal world and to the foot of the mountain with a fresh mind.

Different from the games, they could watch everything but couldn't change anything here. They felt like they were observing another world.

Some people were born with talent while others were born dull.

When they watched the two boys walking into the Green Cloud Faction, they wondered what future awaited them.

It's indeed fascinating! They thought.

As they watched with great concentration while drinking the Coke, the screens suddenly dimmed!

"What's happening?!" Nalan Hongwu almost spat the Coke onto his screen when he saw the words, [If you want to know what happens next, stayed tuned for the next episode!]

An Huwei and others also froze and then glanced at the scene. "One, two, three, four! We watched all four of them?"

"No... How come I feel like the story just began?!"

After being stunned for a while, Nalan Hongwu regained his senses and slammed his hand on the table, yelling, "Kid! Where are the next episodes?!"

At this moment, Ye Xiaoye, Dong Qingli, and a few others had just finished today's game time, and they sneaked a glance at Nalan Hongwu and others with kind smiles!

Fang Qi said, "Didn't you see the words? It means that you must wait until the next time!"

Nalan Hongwu and An Huwei's faces twitched. "We were just enjoying ourselves, and you are telling us to wait until the next time?!"

"Each episode of this TV series is fascinating!" Fang Qi curled his lips and tried to talk some sense into them. "If you watch them all without rest, at your old age, you might die suddenly in my internet cafe. What shall I do about that?"

Nalan Hongwu's face turned darker. "Nonsense! I think it's you who might die suddenly in the internet cafe!"

Nalan Hongwu cussed silently. If it was before, I would have leaped over with a sword!

An Huwei said, "Then, tell us when we can get to watch the next episodes."

"Tomorrow, I'll update two episodes!" Fang Qi said.

An Huwei's face twitched. "We have to wait until tomorrow?! At least let me see what happens to Zhang Xiaofan and if he's taken into the Green Cloud Faction!"

"I think he definitely won't be taken into the faction!" Nalan Hongwu said, "This kid is dumb! How can a cultivation faction take in such a boy? Maybe he might stumble into a master just like how Li Xiaoyao did."

"No! No!" An Huwei said, "Senior, Li Xiaoyao had great talent, and Zhang Xiaofan has none!"

Nalan Hongwu slammed his hand on the table in displeasure. "What on earth happens next! Kid, you must let us finish it!"

At this moment, more and more people came into the internet cafe. When Ye Songtao and Xue Daolv brought their disciples into the shop, there were almost no seats available.
