Dark Duel is trending!
At first, when discussions about the Dark Duel started spreading on the community and the internet, most netizens felt a "sudden attack of dead mories."
Dark Duel? Isn’t that the setup from the classic "Yu-Gi-Oh! DM"?
Oh, I’m familiar with this!
The so-called Dark Duel is... Wait a minute! You’re saying this Dark Duel is not that Dark Duel, that it has nothing to do with Yu-Gi-Oh! or the Pharaoh?
So what do you an by this Dark Duel? Just playing "Star Emperor 2," how does it beco associated with darkness?
After so understanding, netizens widened their eyes, expressing that this duel is indeed dark.
In the world of "Yu-Gi-Oh!," the loser of a Dark Duel would have their soul devoured, essentially a life-and-death battle. That’s why such duels are called Dark Duels.
And the Dark Duel in "Star Emperor 2" obviously doesn’t reach the heights of "gambling one’s soul and life," but...
From another perspective, even though losing this duel won’t cost you your life or lock your soul in solitary confinent, the price of burning my motherboard, destroying my graphics card, and blowing up my console is unforgivable, you know!
"Co on! If it’s just the heavy cost, can it even be called a Dark Duel? The true aning of a Dark Duel is that once initiated, it cannot be refused!"
"Tragic! I never thought playing a ga would require tiptoeing around, afraid of getting targeted by bad guys in the shadows, then getting a Dark Duel challenge..."
"LOL! You’re this scared only because you’re not strong enough. If you, like , were using the full ROG setup, would you still fear a Dark Duel?"
"Sounds reasonable, but forget about the Wasteful Realm, it’s just not cost-effective..."
"But what does this have to do with ? Even without a Dark Duel, can I still conquer the Path to Immortality?"
"Young man, I gazed at the stars last night and found that you have the potential to beco an Immortal Emperor. Why not join my sect? In the future, you will surely shine throughout history!"
"Oh! Senior, you are from..."
"I am from the Refused Protection Holy Land, one of the guardians of the Great Eagle Saint Heir, the Demon Eagle Great Saint!"
"How dare a re Demon Eagle Great Saint mislead others, your Saint Heir’s face was already swollen by the Shrinking Saint Heir’s Super Dragon, so better join us in the Seven-Colored Holy Land. Our Saint Heir has the rare Fire God Body..."
A well-intentioned informational post, but sowhere down the line, it turned into a chaotic brawl of fanboys from different manufacturers.
This made Chen Ba’s mouth twitch in front of the screen.
He turned his head to Yang Dong and couldn’t help but complain, "When did the community turn into this?"
"If you an their chatting style, then it’s been like this for a while."
Yang Dong thought for a mont, then explained, "Probably since the Tianba Community was revamped and the ’Star Emperor’ discussion board was renad to ’Digital Technology,’ these people have beco like this."
It is well known that the story of "Star Emperor" takes place on Dubhe.
And because Dubhe is a brilliantly bright Ancient Cultivation Star in the cosmos, it has produced many Great Emperor Venerables, leading to countless Holy Land Immortal Gates, fostering a strong cultivation atmosphere.
Since Dubhe had so many sects and Holy Lands, players naturally chose one to join, waving flags and cheering for the outstanding Saint Heirs of their chosen faction.
Among them, the Saint Heirs of Raptor, Super Dragon, Great Eagle, and Fire God Holy Lands ca from noble backgrounds with top-notch talent, making them the most dazzling stars of this Golden Era. It’s only natural that players cheer for them.
"Of course, the prosperity of a sect cannot only rely on how powerful the Saint Heirs are; the Saintess is also a focal point for many cultivators."
"Take the Shrinking Holy Land, for instance; their Saintess, Demon Dragon, is very popular, even more so than the Saint Heir, Super Dragon. Her Divine Maiden appearance makes many cultivators admire her."
Chen Ba: "..."
Alright, alright!
Can you even play like this?
A few broken graphics cards and you co up with all these tricks, Saint Heirs and Saintesses included. And who thought of nas like Shrinking Holy Land, Refused Protection Holy Land?
According to the background setting, a so-called Holy Land Level immortal tradition should at least produce one or two Great Emperor Venerables to match such grand nas, right?
So... in this system, are there so-called Refused Protection Emperor and Shrinking Emperor?
"Yes, there are!"
Yang Dong nodded and said, "You wouldn’t believe it, but there really are so-called Refused Protection Emperor and Shrinking Emperor. And these emperors even have their fan art, like the Shrinking Emperor is a red dragon, and the Refused Protection Emperor is an eagle..."
Chen Ba remained silent.
Although he had tried his best to overestimate the silliness of netizens, he never expected them to be so silly to this extent.
They even made fan art?
He searched in the community and found that Yang Dong wasn’t bluffing; the fan art was real, not just fan art, but there was even fan fiction and fan rchandise...
This wasn’t even the most abstract part!
The most abstract part is that these -like background settings were actually believed by many newbies, who genuinely thought there were places like the "Beating Holy Land" and "Refused Protection Holy Land" in the ga.
All I can say is, apart from the unreliable nas of these Holy Lands, the settings regarding those Saint Heirs and Saintesses were crafted by the players to be too realistic.
For example, the Saint Heir of the Seven-Colored Holy Land, Fire God, was nad after his unique "Fire God Body," and his talent rivals that of Raptor, Super Dragon, and other geniuses. Many seniors praised him as having the potential of a Great Emperor...
See, isn’t this impressive?
If soone new to the digital circle ca along, not knowing what these terms represented, they might actually believe it, thinking this is the setting of the ga.
