Thousands of miles away, in Jiang City.
Yu Wenjie had just finished a match on the Path to Immortality. After a fierce battle, his opponent disconnected, granting him victory. Feeling confident, he started another ga.
But unexpectedly, as soon as this ga started, unusual events began to unfold.
On screen, the character controlled by Yu Wenjie—Nether Venerable—made a careless move and the opponent seized the opportunity to land two punches. One hit the chest, and he blocked the second punch with his right hand.
Damn damn damn!
This mistake was too basic, and too deadly.
Never mind the second punch being blocked by activating a defense skill, the first punch genuinely hamred his chest. In Star Emperor 1, this would be nothing much—just lose so health points...
But this is Star Emperor 2!
Do you understand the newly added "injury" chanism? According to its rules, when a character’s vital spot is hit and the damage reaches a certain level, the character will enter an "injured" state, unable to perform at full capacity.
The chest is undoubtedly a vital spot!
After all, it’s right by the heart’s position. To argue otherwise would be quite unreasonable.
Yu Wenjie was quite anxious. Although he hadn’t played many rounds, he knew that an injured character wouldn’t recover imdiately, needing so ti to heal. During this healing period, he couldn’t use Nether Venerable in battles.
But the problem is...
He had just started playing Star Emperor 2 not long ago, and only learned the skill set of Nether Venerable, while clueless about other characters.
"Wait a second!"
Just as Yu Wenjie was feeling extrely frustrated and thinking he’s truly unlucky, he suddenly realized that, despite taking a solid hit to the chest, miraculously... nothing was wrong with him?
What the hell!
As the dazzling skill effects slowly dissipated, revealing the changes in the ga, Yu Wenjie was astonished.
He wasn’t injured!
Not only that, even after taking those two solid punches, his health bar was still full! Do you understand what "full health" ans?
Why didn’t he lose any health?
Yu Wenjie wasn’t the only one baffled; his opponent was dumbfounded as well. He was sure he just used a crucial skill to hit Yu Wenjie, but why didn’t he lose any health?
"I’m reporting soone for cheating!"
His opponent couldn’t hold back and typed: "Must be using a health lock cheat, huh? Why aren’t you injured or losing health?"
Seeing his opponent didn’t want to play anymore, Yu Wenjie scratched his head and typed back: "I don’t know, I didn’t..."
Before he finished typing, Nether Venerable suddenly lifted his right leg in-ga, launching a dazzling Lightning Nether Leg effect straight at the opponent, causing the health bar to plumt drastically.
Yu Wenjie: "..."
Looking at the reply he hadn’t completed, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"I swear I didn’t move, I was just typing, do you believe ?"
Opponent: "..."
The atmosphere instantly beca awkward.
Yu Wenjie was more bewildered than anyone. He truly was typing, making no moves, yet the character acted on its own.
As everyone knows.
In both Star Emperor and Star Emperor 2 gas, players could type to chat during matches.
But there’s a prerequisite for it: while typing, an "input box" pops up, during which players cannot perform any actions, and the character rely stands still like a wooden stake.
This special chanism exists in many gas, rendering regular key actions ineffective during typing.
WASD are movent keys. When you’re typing, bringing up the input box ans, unless you hit enter to confirm, pressing WASD only produces these letters without moving.
Yu Wenjie was indeed typing, with both the input box and thod up, making it impossible for him to do anything.
Whether the opponent believes it or not doesn’t matter; what’s crucial is this scene unfolded right before Yu Wenjie’s eyes, undeniably real. As he typed, the character indeed "acted" on its own.
This situation resembles the "possession" described in novels.
No doubt!
Yu Wenjie felt his character was possessed, otherwise why release Lightning Nether Leg to kick the opponent? He hadn’t even moved; who kicked the blow?
The opponent didn’t believe Yu Wenjie’s nonsense about possession, thinking it’s just a dishonorable trick for a sneak attack.
Now it’s even worse!
The opponent stopped typing to communicate and unleashed full force, promptly attacking Yu Wenjie.
"Don’t attack, don’t attack, I hm..."
Yu Wenjie attempted to type and communicate, to figure out the peculiarities of this match, but the opponent wouldn’t listen, launching several skills straight at him.
Boom boom boom!
Star Emperor 2 has gorgeous effects, especially those explosive skills from Venerable Great Emperors, the scene’s grandeur could practically erase great routes.
But speaking of which...
Having not moved due to typing and enduring several more skills, Yu Wenjie was shocked to find himself still unhard.
What’s going on?
He couldn’t possibly have enabled cheats, yet he is completely unaware of it—what’s happening?
His opponent lost it, leaving a harsh ssage: "I’ve recorded and uploaded it to Tianba Community, just wait for your account to be suspended," before promptly surrendering.
Done playing!
Damn soone’s cheating, and with health lock cheats—who can stand this? Just gather evidence and report it to Ba, and wait for Ba to handle it.
"Did I really cheat?"
Winning a match inexplicably, Yu Wenjie felt deeply uncomfortable.
He was certain he hadn’t cheated.
