Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shiroishi Kazuma rushed towards the computer, and after refreshing the official webpage of Dream Dota League, he saw the latest announcement.
Title: Dream Dota League’s family letter to all players.
Content: In order to repay all players for your love and fiery passion, we will open a special double gold coin and double experience point event, starting from 8 pm tonight, for the next 72 hours. At the same time, after the event has ended, we will open the Mastery and Rune systems. Please clic.k the link below for specific details.
—Dream Dota League operating team.
“Double experience points and double gold coins…” Even Shiroishi Kazuma’s lips started to tremble, as he mumbled, “Giving others a taste of their own medicine, giving others a taste of their own medicine… Hong Dali, hehe, Hong Dali…”
Muttering up to this point, Shiroishi Kazuma suddenly felt a tight feeling in his chest, and then he spat out blood!
If previously, Shiroishi Kazuma could still hold his fort, then this time, he’d really been hurt.
This time, Hong Dali had literally returned whatever tricks he used in the past. Since you opened a double equipment drop rate to attract popularity and attack our popularity during our server launching, then don’t blame us for striking you when you’re down and doing the same thing to you.
By then, Shiroishi Kazuma could already imagine how big an impact it would cause to Spiritual Sword after Dream Dota League had started the event! The impact would definitely be destructive!
“Mr. Shi!” Qian Youjin was greatly shocked, as he hurriedly rushed forward to support Shiroishi Kazuma and exclaimed, “Mr. Shi, you…”
“Spiritual Sword is finished…” Without even wiping away the blood at the corner of his mouth, Shiroishi Kazuma could only say this.
“I’ll bring you to the room to take a rest first!” Qian Youjin couldn’t be concerned about Spiritual Sword at this point. Shiroishi Kazuma had already been angered till he vomited blood, his days in the future would definitely not be easy.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Latest news, latest news, Dream Dota official announcement, from 8 pm tonight onwards, double the experience points and double the amount of gold coins! Double! Brothers, it’s for three days straight! What are you waiting for? Moreover, the Mastery and Rune systems have been launched. Everyone, quickly go and take a look!”
“I knew that long ago. Double, haha! This time, when I build my foundation well, in the future I’ll definitely have a huge advantage!”
“Tsk, I’ve already upgraded to level 16. When I reach level 30 I’ll have 4,000 gold coins. By then, when I take part in the ranking competition and get the bronze level, I’ll get 8,000 gold coins! If I can get up to silver, I’ll get 100 yuan!”
“What’s 100 yuan, my goal is the king level! By then it’ll be one million!”
…
At the same time, at the Spiritual Sword special zone.
“Brothers, Dream Dota side has opened a double experience point and double gold coin event. Sorry, this game is now increasingly boring the more I play it. I’m preparing to go over. I heard that when we reach a certain level there, there will be rewards too.”
“Yes yes, look at the prices of these equipment thrown all over the place. The initially 100 yuan equipment can now only be sold for 2 yuan, and it’s still said that you’ll lose out if you can’t buy it… Now, who would still buy equipment?!”
“Heh heh, I’ve already gone over. Dream Dota is indeed fun, I just can’t stop!”
…
Mingxin Network, in the big conference room.
The atmosphere in the room was extremely silent and orderly.
Everyone in the entire Mingxin Network was silently seated, staring intently at the projection screen on the wall.
On it was the number of online users at Dream Dota League’s server!
“1.9 million, it’s 1.9 million users now.” Liu Mingxin, same as the rest, stared intently at the screen, as he thought, “This time, how big an effect can the double experience point and double gold coin event cause this time?”
Now, Liu Mingxin had completely conceded to Hong Dali’s squandering ability.
It wasn’t an overstatement to say that Hong Dali was a freak, a strange freak.
All of his ideas had come about because he wanted to squander, but in the end, practically all his ideas would be able to earn an astronomical amount of wealth which exceeded everyone’s expectations!
For the online website, at the start, it had only been bought for 2 million casually. Alas, it has progressed till now where its yearly profit had exceeded 2.5 billion. And this was only the price for the e-subscription, needless to mention that now it had already extended into various copyrights, and each type of copyright could create extremely high earnings. Even Merika’s side had started to have publishers wanting to publish the books after changing the language.
Those pieces of land were initially acquired at a price of 1.2 to 1.3 billion, but within just a few months, they had been sold at a sky-high price of close to 8 billion!
And the online gaming this time? What kind of miracle could be created?
Currently, the number of online users had already exceeded 1.8 million, and it was advancing towards 1.9 million. Now, the popularity of Dream Dota League could almost be said to have reached the peak! But how big exactly was its potential?
Time passed very quickly. The 8 pm clock rung.
Mingxin Network’s employees started to whisper and engage in discussions. “It’s 8 pm, the double rate event has started. I wonder how big an impact it will create?” “Yes, this time I wonder what miracle Young Master can create again.” “It’s just too right for our CEO Liu to work with Young Master. Have you all realized? Recently, CEO Liu is smiling more now.” “I usually don’t pay attention to whether CEO Liu smiles, but I know that my wallet has gotten fatter now…” “Indeed, indeed. Hehe, I’m more confident when I talk at home now too!”
Just when the employees below were engaged in discussions, the number of online users of Dream Dota League started to increase!
In 10 minutes’ time, the number of online users had exceeded 1.9 million. Just when all the employees were prepared to express their shock, the figure displayed for the number of online users instantly almost blinded everyone!
At 8:12 pm. Number of online users: 1.92 million!
At 8:15 pm. Number of online users: 1.96 million!
At 8:18 pm. Number of online users: 2 million!
“Oh god, this… just 8 minutes, and the number of online users has increased by 100,000! I haven’t seen it wrong, right?!” “Th… That… Can someone pinch me, am I dreaming? 100,000 users within 8 minutes?” “Don’t talk nonsense, quickly look, the number of online users is increasing again!”
At 8:25 pm. Number of online users: 2.1 million!
At 8:40 pm. Number of online users: 2.25 million!
At 9 pm sharp. Number of online users: 2.4 million!
“This…” Liu Mingxin’s expression was full of disbelief. He stared at this figure as if he’d seen a ghost, mumbling, “Just one hour, and it has increased by 500,000?!”
Just then, the secretary at one side who had been monitoring the activity of Dream Dota League on the internet loudly exclaimed, “Young Master Liu, the number of people on Dream Dota League Tieba forum has exceeded 4 million!”
“I’m not dreaming right…” Liu Mingxin fiercely pinched his thigh—quite painful. “Quick! Quickly look at the other aspects!”
The secretary loudly said, “Weibo, there’s still Weibo! Now all the entertainment celebrities are posting on Weibo, and the contents are all about our Dream Dota!”
On Weibo—
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChu Zhongqin: “This game is really quite good. I’ve just played for two hours and already fell deeply in love with it. Right, it’s Dream Dota League! This is only for now. When Young Master develops the gaming chamber in the future, I believe it’ll definitely be even better! By then, my flabby tummy can say bye to me, haha!”
Jiang Ruoyu: “Dear fans, have you all got into the game? This game is very interesting, it’s not difficult at all to manipulate it, and as someone whose hands are not nimble, even I can very effortlessly play it. It’s just that… Who can guide me along, I’ve already lost three rounds in a row, sob sob sob!”
Tai Yajing: “Thank you, Young Master, for creating such a fun game for us. I’ve just started playing it, and I feel that I’ve fallen in love with it. Perhaps in the future, when I find a boyfriend, I’ll find someone who likes to play Dream Dota League, heh heh.”
Below was Liang Yifeng’s reply, “What the heck, I was still wondering why we lost, can you concentrate more? If you continue posting on Weibo, do you believe I’ll smack you!” action
The netizens behind scolded, “Are you seeking death, didn’t you just film iPartment? Let go of the goddess, let me do it!”
…
Liu Mingxin looked at the overwhelmingly great response and was full of disbelief.
He’d indeed thought that Dream Dota League would become popular—perhaps very popular—but no matter what, he’d never thought that it would be popular to this extent!
This had totally exceeded his imagination!
Popularity, it was popularity! Online games played exactly with popularity!
Taking in a deep breath, this time, Liu Mingxin was prepared to squander too. “Starting from the 1st next month, all your salaries will be doubled.”
After he said this, the conference room was silent for a short while, then cheers instantly broke out and almost tore the ceiling apart!
…
“Currently, how many online users are there in our Spiritual Sword?” Shiroishi Kazuma weakly asked Qian Youjin, “Tell me the truth. Are there still… 200,000?”
“Yes, yes!” Qian Youjin hurriedly nodded, but his tone was very helpless. “There’s still 210,000 left, but… It’s still decreasing, and… the speed is very fast.”
“Spiritual Sword is finished.” Shiroishi Kazuma smiled bitterly. “Such a big online game, and within a few days’ time, only about 200,000 people are left, hehe…”
“Mr. Shi, what should we do now?” Qian Youjin cautiously asked, “With Spiritual Sword’s current circumstances…”
“Spiritual Sword?” Shiroishi Kazuma helplessly shook his head and said just three words, “Wait for death…”
…
The online game fight this time could be said to have been merciless. Turning back the time to 8 pm, Chenhui Building, laboratory on the fourth floor.
“Ah, I’ve slept so well!” Hong Dali was finally satisfied with his sleep as he sat up and did a long stretch. Then, he loudly laughed and said, “Hahaha, as expected, sufficient sleep is the foundation! Lackeys, get ready, we’re going out!”
“Dali, where are you going, what are you going to do?” Though Tang Muxin asked this, the little lass got ready to set off using the fastest speed.
“Well…” Hong Dali grinned. “I heard that someone wants to compete in basketball with me, so we’re going to casually find some basketball players!”
