The Rise of Otaku-Chapter 308 - Table Battle

Zhou Yu had never liked to grow mushrooms this much. On average, he could harvest electronic components once every two days, and sometimes, he could find one or two rare mushrooms. Anyway, he had to save them all. On normal days, he would save thunder ores, and during cloudy days, he would order the ghost ship to capture thunders. Of course, the thunderstorm would be the best weather, because he would be able to plant many mushrooms without wasting any additional materials.

In addition to gathering the material for producing the cards, Zhou Yu was also working very hard to gather the materials for producing Star Map Disc. Moreover, if Luhua city needed to enter the era of electricity, these components were also necessary.

Therefore, it seemed like Zhou Yu, a small farmer, who grew mushrooms, would be busy for a while

In the months of Zhou Yu were growing mushroom crazily, the ACG community was completely conquered by a game called Star Map. A triple-a quality game just appeared out of thin air and shocked everyone. After all, everyone was looking forward to the game “the heartless girl”, but no one expected that they would get a game called Star Map, and it was ridiculously high quality.

So was the emperor Zho Yu playing a trick? Using the heartless girl to distract them, and then release an entirely unexpected game, so they could catch them by surprise. And this Hu Tu studio, where did it come from? Its production quality was so amazing that it could make a card battle game look like a masterpiece.

Although no one has actually gotten the game, from the promotional trailer, people could tell that this game was going to be epic. And Zhou Yu’s game was famous for its quality. The quality of the game in the promotional trailer would definitely be the quality of the final game, so everyone was looking forward to it.

The Otaku gaming portal naturally put this game as their first priority and after a month of blanket promotion, it was officially launched.

Since then, the sales of the game have been climbing constantly, until it eventually became the most popular single-player game in the domestic market. Not only that, but “Star Map” itself also supported online battles, 1v1, and even 2v2. Because of this, it also made this game become the favorite game of many game streamers.

Once the players got the game, they had to clear the game first, and then they could choose to compete with each other online. Those who won would cheer loudly, and those who lost would grit their teeth and try to get better cards again. There were also some people, who did not like to compete with each other. They would still be addicted to finding all kinds of hidden elements and couldn’t extricate themselves from the game.

There was also a battle ranking online. After players played ten battles, they would enter the ranking system, and then they could challenge anyone and started to level up their ranks. The winner of the battle would obtain a higher rank in the battle, and the person who lost the competition would automatically drop one level in rank.

For a time, all kinds of Star Map masters were appearing on the ranking system.

And while everyone was busy battling with each other, Zhou Yu finally had the first Star Map Disc after a month of hard work.

In order to share this fun, Zhou Yu quickly dragged Little Rat, who was smiling and teaching his little girlfriend how to play games. Being influenced by this little lovey-dovey couple, all the staff of Qin Zhuan studio began to actively participate in the social gatherings that Zhou Yu arranged every weekend.

This could also be considered Little Rat’s contribution to the park. So Zhou Yu decided to let him participate in the first virtual combat.

Along the way, Little Rat constantly rolled his eyes at brother Yu, who had disrupted his date with his girlfriend. No wonder, he was still single. Brother Yu didn’t know how important his date with his girlfriend was.

“Stop pouting your lips like that. You are lucky today because you are the first one that gets to see the most epic thing I made!” After he said it, he took out the Star Map Disc and the Virtual Cards that he had collected recently, “have you played any card games? Pick fifty cards, let’s play a few rounds.”

When it comes to games, Little Rat was also quite experienced, and he also often collected cards from other card games. So even if he did not understand the rules of the game at the moment, after a few rounds, he would learn all the basic rules. But he was very curious about the cards brought out by Brother Yu. Each of them looked very luxurious and very beautiful.

Moreover, there were two strange discs.

“Brother Yu, what is this thing?”

“Sit tight, your jaw will drop.”

It was also the first time for Zhou Yu to install the Star Map Disc, so he was doing it while reading the manual. First of all, he needed to set it up. The two Star Map discs must be connected wirelessly to turn a desk-sized location into a battlefield.

This was not like Yu-Gi-Oh! After all, in Yu-Gi-Oh, you could strap the duel disk on your arm.

Zhou Yu was not good with electronic equipment. Apart from computers, he could not even use his washing machine properly, so it took him quite some time to set it up. Fortunately, Little Rat was holding a card to study it carefully, so he didn’t care that much.

It was just that all of sudden, Little Rat let out a scream, which scared Zhou Yu into almost dropping the Star Map Disc.

“Brother Yu, there is a thing coming out from those cards?!”

It turned out that Little Rat accidentally slid the sliding slot of the card, and then a barbarian knight on a warhorse came out of the card and scared him into screaming.

“See! Not bad, right?”

Zhou Yu said complacently. And after seeing the projection, Little Rat’s eyes sparkled with little stars, as he watched the knight standing on the card. He felt like he was in a dream. This card was so awesome. It could display the real image, and the characters could even wave the big sword like it was real, it looked so majestic.

Little Rat was completely addicted to it, and carefully took out other cards and slid the sliding slots one by one, watching the magical fairies jumping out of the cards one after each other.

“If Xiao Lu sees it, she will definitely be very happy. Brother Yu, can you lend me this to play for a while!”

This bratty kid, where was his bros before hoes spirit? After getting the good thing, the first thing he thought was his girlfriend? Naturally, Zhou Yu would not lend it to him at the moment. He could finally find someone he could play with, so before he could play a few rounds, he would not let Little Rat go at all.

Finally, the two Star Map Discs were connected. After a soft sound, the Star Map Discs used a blue light to draw a square area on the table until the table was covered with small grids, and those grids were slightly larger than the cards, so the cards could be placed vertically or horizontally in the grid.

Once the card was placed in the grid, the card would be automatically activated. The last row was the hidden card’s area. The cards placed here must be magic cards or trap cards. Once the players needed to activate the cards, they could flip the cards, and the warrior cards could be placed in other areas.

After they roughly understood some rules, a desktop battle between an adult and a kid finally began.

To be fair, Zhou Yu has played the PC version of this game before, so he was much more familiar with the rules than Little Rat. And Little Rat had just learned this game today, there were many things he still did not understand. Moreover, Zhou Yu would never go easy on him just because he was a kid. So the poor Little Rat was defeated badly by brother Yu repeatedly.
