Fallen Chronicles

Chapter 383 Chapter 383: "Fallen Chronicles II" Part 2

3/4

Speaking of the highest difficulty...

The chubby guy's eyes suddenly lit up.

That's right!

Now that there's such a master here, shouldn't I hurry up and have him help clear more levels!

If he can easily get an "S+" on level eighteen, then clearing the later levels of nineteen, twenty, or even twenty-five shouldn't be a problem, right!

At this time, a new batch of customers came into the convenience store. Just as Renji was about to get up to work, the chubby guy pressed him down.

"Bro Renji, leave it to me!"

The chubby guy, who was originally slacking off, now directly transformed into an excellent employee, taking on the work of two people by himself, just so that Renji could focus on clearing a few more levels of the Miasma Contract for him.

About fifteen minutes later, after this batch of customers finally left, the chubby guy, panting and gasping for breath, but still with a face full of anticipation and excitement, trotted over to Renji's side to inquire about the results. Renji did not disappoint him.

"Holy f**king sh*t!"

"You're a f**king boss, Bro Renji!"

The chubby guy looked at his own "S+" clearance ratings and was directly shocked. Renji had gone up another ten levels in total, ten levels! He stopped at the Miasma Contract level 28, which he didn't even dare to look at before.

And from level eighteen to twenty-eight, a full ten levels, all cleared with a perfect "S+" rating, leaving the chubby guy completely in chaos.

As for later, it wasn't that Renji couldn't beat it, but because it hadn't been unlocked yet.

Generally speaking, the last two levels are the climax, and they are only unlocked in the last few days of the event, to see who can clear the highest difficulty in the shortest time.

"Bro, with your talent, why the f**k are you working as a broke store clerk? Just start a live stream and become a famous gaming master!"

"I have also watched a lot of technical streamers' live broadcasts. To be honest, my evaluation is that they are not even half as good as you, Bro, Damn it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. Last time I spent 44504 yen on a big streamer guide, and they only gave me an A- rating. Those f**king streamers!"

When the chubby guy got an A- before, he was quite happy, but now it doesn't matter. If you compare, he feels that those technical streamers are nothing.

"I'll pass. Besides, being a streamer..." Renji shook his head.

In his mind, playing games is considered not doing proper work and can't be put on the table. Even if you say it out loud, it's not as good as being a laborer.

The chubby guy could see Renji's meaning at a glance. He stamped his feet in frustration, but considering Renji's "country bumpkin" identity, Shota could understand. So he pulled Renji aside to give him a good talking-to.

"Bro, wake up, it's already 2051. Gaming streamers have long been a regular profession, and there are many who make a lot of money! And now this game "Fallen Chronicles II" is one of the hottest mobile games right now, with millions of players all around the world. With such a large player base, are you still afraid of not having enough to eat? In a matter of minutes, not to exaggerate, you'll definitely have a few tens of thousands a month. And when you become famous, it'll be hundreds of thousands or even millions a month!"

The chubby guy excitedly spoke as if he had put himself into Renji's role, becoming a gaming god streamer with millions of fans, enjoying flowers and adoration.

As for Renji, he was indeed stunned for a few seconds by the chubby guy's words.

It wasn't because of the beautiful future the chubby guy had painted for himself, but rather...

"What did you say this game was called just now?"

"'Fallen Chronicles II', why?"

"It feels a bit... familiar." Renji furrowed his brows tightly.

Seeing Renji like this, the chubby guy waved his hand and said, "Oh, that's normal. Didn't I tell you this game is very popular, especially in the mobile game circle? Many people at exhibitions also cosplay characters from this game. It's very normal for you to have heard of it somewhere and find it familiar."

However, Renji still shook his head with tightly furrowed brows.

"No, I feel like I've played something similar..."

"Played it before?"

Now the chubby guy was also confused, thinking that Renji had said earlier that he hadn't played it, only played something similar on the computer...

Wait a minute!

The chubby guy seemed to suddenly think of something. He said with a slightly uncertain tone, "Come to think of it, when I was browsing forums before, a science post seemed to mention that the predecessor of this 'Fallen Chronicles II' was indeed a PC game."

"But... that was an old game from 20 or 30 years ago. And apparently, the reputation of that game at the time was incredibly bad. It was said to be deliberately disgusting players with extremely high difficulty. So in the end, there were only a pitiful few tens of thousands of players. It was only slightly popular for a short while, and later the sales directly died. The company also left it unfinished, and even shut down many cloud servers, making many players who had cleared the game unable to log in to their save files. They probably ran out of money and ran away."

The chubby guy originally wanted to ask Renji if he had played the previous game, which could explain why Renji was so good now.

But Shota thought about it again.

That's not right.

It was an old game from 20 or 30 years ago, but from Renji's appearance, he looked about the same age as him. At most, he wouldn't be over 25 years old.

If Renji really played it, could it be that he started playing from the womb?

"Sorry, I... I may be a bit confused in my memory."

"Fallen Chronicles" did indeed touch Renji, but when he tried to delve deeper into this feeling, the pain of his head being torn apart struck again.

Seeing Renji's pained expression, the chubby guy thought Renji was the type of old player with persistence and feelings. He hurriedly said again,

"It's okay Bro. You can check it for me later, or you can directly search for the game company 'Alliance'. Maybe you can find something."

"Alliance?"

This new term pulled Renji out from "Fallen Chronicles", giving him a strange sense of familiarity.

"Yeah, Alliance. Oh, the full name of this game company is Forest Alliance, but we're used to calling it 'Alliance'. Alliance is the developer of the current 'Fallen Chronicles II'. Since they can make a sequel, they must have some connection with the old company before."

"If you're in a hurry..."

The chubby guy lowered his voice at this point, looked around sneakily, and whispered to Renji,

"I recently got a new girlfriend who is the receptionist at the building next to us. I'll go ask her later if she can open a back door for us and let us into the building!"

"Into the building... Why do we need to go into that building?"

"Geez! Bro, haven't you noticed? The building next to our convenience store is the headquarters of 'Alliance'!"
