Chapter 525: Chapter 43: System Live Broadcast
During this period, Lanno was equally busy. In addition to secretly inviting Anvis, he was also contacting other talents he fancied.
Just like his own style, the candidates Lanno contacted were almost all nobodies in the academy.
Of course, this was also related to the situation he was currently facing, with his royal brothers targeting him from the shadows.
While it was not convenient to openly move against Lanno, offering a higher price to compete with Lanno for talent was routine practice.
Even though Lanno was an Empire Prince, he couldn’t possibly be so domineering as to forcibly order other Pamir Academy students to follow him.
Moreover, it was clear to any discerning eye that choosing Lanno’s side now was tantamount to picking a side.
Virtually no one was optimistic about Prince Lanno. Compared to his several brothers, Lanno started too late and was also targeted, intentionally or not, by several princes, making his life very difficult.
Joining Prince Lanno’s camp now would indeed be like sending charcoal in snowy weather. But more likely, it meant marching towards destruction with the powerless Lanno.
Those students with certain backgrounds were very sharp. Prince Lanno’s current situation was obviously difficult, and there were almost no big shots within the Royal Family willing to support him.
In their eyes, choosing to join Prince Lanno’s camp now sounded nice if called brave, but not so nice if called brainless.
For them, perhaps adding flowers to the brocade was not highly profitable, but it was stable and low risk. Only those students of humble origins would be willing to take the risk with Prince Lanno.
Under Anvis’s secret observation, several days quietly passed. Prince Lanno and people from the Four Great Families both found their own satisfactory followers.
To Anvis’s slight surprise, three members of Prince Lanno’s team were students of the newly-emerging Magic-guided Mechanical School.
This seemed to be some kind of interest exchange or a declaration of allegiance intended for certain people behind the scenes to see.
Of course, even more complex were Prince Lanno’s feelings upon learning that Anvis was planning to bring two foreigners into the Radiant Secret Realm.
That was the exploration slot for the Radiant Secret Realm that only occurred once every fifty years! If one was lucky enough, they could even find a Magic Artifact surpassing Ninth Rank within!
If such an opportunity were placed outside, it could directly be the final item in an auction, and even Eighth Rank powerhouses would be moved by it.
Yet Anvis casually bestowed such high-level gifts upon those foreigners, even giving away two at once.
Lanno found it hard to understand Anvis’s actions, especially considering that one of his last slots was given to the Last Dragon Descendant.
Lanno had heard of Orbins’s name before; such was his talent that even the Space-Time Ring made an exception to admit him as a student, showing he indeed had the qualifications for a slot.
He had also heard of the other foreigner. Although he didn’t have much strength, he seemed to be a student of the Secret Star Scholar. If it was to curry favor with the Secret Star Scholar, that could make sense.
But that last foreigner, Lanno had never heard of his name. Even when he had people inquire, all they could find was that the individual seemed to be one of Anvis’s attendants.
Was a foreign attendant worth attracting with an exploration slot in the Radiant Ruins as a price to pay? Even if that person might have some value, wasn’t he afraid of a future betrayal from the attendant?
Unable to understand Anvis’s intentions, Prince Lanno simply stopped guessing about it. Anvis was, after all, only an ally and not someone he had the right to interfere with regarding Anvis’s choices.
The Pamir Academy’s upper echelon was also aware of the opening of the Radiant Secret Realm.
On the day the Secret Realm opened, the academy specifically arranged a large Floating Ship to carry the qualified students to the location of the Secret Realm’s entrance.
Aboard the Floating Ship, the Last Dragon Descendant and Xia Ye Yinghuo looked around at the luxurious and magical setup, feeling very intrigued.
They had boarded the ship before takeoff, led by Anvis.
The academy was well aware that not all companions accompanying the students qualified to explore the Secret Realm were students from the academy. Therefore, the boarding location was specially set at the Royal Capital’s Silver Rose Airport.
After boarding, Anvis gave them the stone tablet for forming teams in the Radiant Secret Realm and their temporary Identity Cards before allowing them to move about freely.
After Anvis left, the two players looked at each other and tacitly chose to go their separate ways.
Xia Ye Yinghuo decided to head to the deck to tour and sightsee, while Lorna, as usual, clung to her side.
With the protection and endorsement of Anvis and her teacher, the Secret Star Scholar Sai, although many on the ship could tell there was something unusual about her, they were merely filled with Curiosity.
At this time, the Last Dragon Descendant had found Anvis again, intending to discuss some private matters.
"Are you saying you want to ’broadcast the entire journey’ of exploring the Radiant Ruins, in the manner of a foreigner?"
Hearing the Elf’s purpose, Anvis raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Yes, I wonder if you would allow me to do so."
The Last Dragon Descendant carefully observed Anvis, feeling somewhat uneasy.
System live broadcasting is a function introduced after the previous version update, and registering for a certified broadcaster Identity requires 648 yuan.
Of course, although it is called live broadcasting, the actual broadcast time is delayed by three Magic Times compared to the live event. Additionally, live broadcasting in certain Special maps requires an extra fee.
Even though he knew that Anvis, as an ’NPC,’ couldn’t possibly know about his live broadcasting and that it was completely unnecessary to inform him, the Last Dragon Descendant didn’t want to do that.
He always treated "Mysterious Era" as a real world to be experienced, and during the game, he always treated the natives as real people. Every Task was completed according to his true inner choices, not solely for the sake of maximizing benefits.
While asking the question, the Elf was already prepared. If Anvis disagreed, he would indeed stop broadcasting entirely; to him, it was a necessary respect.
The Last Dragon Descendant felt somewhat self-mocking, thinking that if he were still the captain of his former professional team, the club side would never have allowed such an impulsive act.
"...Very well, as long as your ’broadcast the entire journey’ can take effect within the Radiant Secret Realm."
While the Elf’s heart was aflutter with anxiety, Anvis suddenly smiled faintly and nodded in agreement to his request.
He had specifically brought the Last Dragon Descendant over this time, and this was indeed his aim.
System live broadcast had just been updated and it was the perfect time for development. He planned to use the influence of the previous team captain of the White Light Club to boost his own fame among the Player community.
The live exploration of the hidden map "Radiant Secret Realm" would surely be a unique event among the players, and since Xia Ye Yinghuo, a solo player, did not broadcast live.
As long as the White Light Club wasn’t foolish, they would undoubtedly arrange for people to widely promote the Last Dragon Descendant in order to leverage this massive wave of popularity, and incidentally funnel viewers to other streams of their own team.
Most importantly, Anvis wanted to try, to what extent he could impact the Continent Destiny Net through the players’ live broadcasts.
