Chapter 763: So Children's Day Is Our Festival? Children's Day Discount Event and New Game Release

"What myth?"

Before this, many players had organized under the call of a certain benevolent soul to offer assistance to the Orc Kingdom and its neighboring countries, which, combined with their own affairs in reality, meant they had relatively little time to play games.

Upon their return, the World of Warcraft had already launched its new expansion, The Burning Crusade, for some time, and these elves could hardly find enough hours in the day just to play World of Warcraft, wishing they could instantly catch up with the progress of the main force, so they naturally had no inclination to pay attention to anything else.

Thus, it was only now that they finally possessed the leisure to notice other matters.

Mr. Der had also only recently made his return, for he had been rather busy in reality before, leaving him with scarcely any time.

At this moment, he pointed at the screen before him and said, "Haven't you seen it? The new game trailer that came out today."

He hastily opened the trailer on his own computer.

"Oh—!"

"To think there is actually a Myth-grade mystic realm?"

Beholding those ancient and magnificent scenes unfolding before their eyes...

It completely presented the desolation and vicissitudes of that earliest, most ancient era when all things were first born.

"How was this made..." an elf murmured in admiration.

"Can we really play a game like this...?!"

Granted, those mysterious and powerful entities such as the "Blizzard Workshop" and the "Softstar Workshop" had long since displayed the majesty of gods within the mystic realms—such as the deities of what seemed to be the "Eastern Continent" in Legend of Sword and Fairy, or those near-god and god-tier existences in World of Warcraft...

But a mystic realm that truly manifested the Mythic Age was something they had never even heard of before, let alone seen.

For that era was one where even legends were vague and indistinct, to say nothing of constructing a mystic realm from it.

Which workshop had manufactured this one?!

Are all the workshops over on your side this formidable?!

...

As for World of Warcraft... in certain aspects, it bore a slight resemblance to The Legend. Its skills, apart from a few specialized categories, were all simple and easy to learn, making it appear rather excellent for legions and militarized command.

At least, such was the case in the current versions 60 and 70.

Therefore, for some true Saint-tier masters, the demand was not as strictly essential as it was for ordinary players.

Unless they truly intended to switch their cultivation to the Holy Light system to learn Resurrection.

With so many Priests and Paladins in the entire World of Warcraft, only a handful actually knew how to resurrect, and most powerhouses who had already reached the Saint-tier would not abandon their own systems to deliberately learn it.

Furthermore, very few Saint-tier experts ever found themselves idle.

Thus, they would not stay in the shop every single day like ordinary players.

At this time, within the Elven Kingdom situated in the Silver Moon Forest.

Inside the royal court, Great Elder Hilu wore a small pair of round-framed glasses polished from magical crystal, resembling an old academic as he earnestly browsed through the scrolls of affairs from various regions of the elven race.

Upon the parchment scrolls, he carefully stamped the official seals, while others were sorted to the side, awaiting the Elven Queen's review.

Upon the desk, a grand pile of documents had already accumulated.

Just then, the communication jade resting on the table suddenly rang.

"Great Elder... a quiet reminder, a new mystic realm is out! A mystic realm of the Mythic Age! Dark Souls 3!"

Along with the message, a trailer video was attached.

He sprang up from his seat with a thud: "The Mythic Age?!"

He glanced at the documents upon the desk...

"This one is mine..."

"This one must be shown to Her Majesty..."

"This one I shall stamp first..."

"This one should be looked over by Her Majesty..."

The elven race possessed a dedicated small discussion group, and the group messages instantly flared to life.

Sera: "I wonder when Elder Hilu will be able to come."

"The Great Elder has been exceptionally busy lately, I am afraid he won't get to play..."

Inside the Elder's chambers.

"This one is for me... no, for Her Majesty."

"This one... for Her Majesty..."

"This one... should also be seen by Her Majesty..."

The originally thin little stack of parchment scrolls on the right side of the desk suddenly piled up into a massive mound.

"Great Elder." At this moment, the Elven Queen, Caelanmbel, was seen walking in from outside the door.

Caelanmbel looked at the desk: "..."

After a long pause, Great Elder Hilu spoke expressionlessly: "...This old man... placed them incorrectly."

He swiftly snatched them back.

...

Inside the new shop in Canglan City.

Because World of Warcraft had become more leisurely again, a group of elves began to discuss this brand-new game.

"Sera, when do you think... this game will be released?" A group of elves sat gathered around the sofa in the leisure area.

"A quiet revelation..." Sera quietly gestured for everyone to draw closer, "Yesterday I heard Xiaoyue say that the boss calls this 'warming up,' and then he will pick an auspicious day to launch it!"

"Then when is an auspicious day?" Lorleen, who was also a member of the Snow Dove Squadron, sat right beside her and asked hurriedly.

"Xiaoyue said, tomorrow!" Sera whispered her breaking news, "The boss's exact words to Xiaoyue were: Tomorrow is an auspicious day, tomorrow is June first, your festival."

"Eh? Tomorrow is our festival?" The group of elves became extraordinarily happy, "So in their place, June first is our festival?"

"Yes!" Sera said excitedly, "And it is said that all the games in the shop will have discounts tomorrow, with the lowest even being thirty percent off!"

"Buy ten and you even get an old game or movie for free!"

"Won't the boss lose money..." Lorleen cried out in surprise, "It originally sells for 10 magic crystals, but now it only sells for 7 magic crystals, doesn't that mean a loss of 3 magic crystals for each one?"

"Oh—!" Lorleen counted the money in her pocket, "I will buy ten tomorrow!"

At this time, a good number of people from the Holy Kingdom of Radiance, Dulan Workshop, and Crystal Stone Workshop were clearly paying close attention to the movements inside the shop as well.

The shop doors were wide open, and several figures were pacing about outside: "Hiss... a loss of 3 magic crystals on a 10 magic crystal mystic realm... and buying ten actually gets you one for free?! Doesn't that mean losing even more... if a hundred thousand people come to buy, won't he go bankrupt...?"

...

The next day.

June first.

Whether it was the new shop or the old shop, the interior environment had been decorated completely anew; for instance, in the old shop of Yuanyang City, several official novel translators plus the cleaning staff member Jessica and others had donned thick, heavy Disney teddy bear suits.

"Oh my, why are there three bears?!" A certain great white deer laughed merrily the moment it stepped into the shop.

"Look over there!" Yuebai had only just stepped through the door when she caught sight of a Grand Archmage standing beside the counter, enveloped in a snowman suit and crowned with an pixelated Elementalist head from Dungeon & Fighter.

"Ah! Look over there, all of you!" Jiang Xiaoyuan let out a startled cry, pointing toward a young man of the two-dimensional realm who stood by the corridor, clad in light armor and grasping a uniquely fashioned iron-ribbed umbrella.

"The Myriad Manifestation Umbrella?!"

"And look, look!" Mu Qing gasped in astonishment. "Do you see that? Isn't that Jing Tian's whole family over there!"

"Wow! There is a Pikachu sitting in that booth!" Within the newly opened shop of Canglan City, Sera exclaimed, her eyes gleaming like miniature stars. "Let us sit there!"

"Boss! Boss, activate this for me! I want to activate ten of them!" Luolin scanned the game menu, her mind reeling. "My goodness! When did Dark Souls One and Two even come out?! Activate One, Two, and Three all at once!"

Though the third installment had been released first, allowing players to journey alongside the main crowd, completing it meant one could still return to experience the first and second chapters, could they not?
