Go to Hell, White Lotus-Chapter 45 - This article is really not heavy
[45. This article is really not heavy]
Feeling very conflicted inside, Bai Lian Hua couldn’t help but be impressed at Song Qingge’s ability to remain emotionless in this situation…..Song brother you really are an ice cold male god! How can you remain so unaffected when this slave blushes and gets embarrassed every time I see you!
It’s so awkward. Maybe I should call up someone else to join the instance? Bai Lian Hua looked at the lonely back of “Lonely like Snow” on his monitor….Hey, how can the back of a game character appear so lonely? Song Qingge was not as talkative as he used to be in this instance but, then again, Song brother was never really a talkative person…..It was just that for some reason Bai Lian Hua found the words “Lotus” above the little black dragon standing next to Lonely like Snow appear particularly glaring.
Bai Lai Hua opened his own pet panel. He considered for a while and eventually did not select “Show the pet”. Stop being so overly self conscious, Bai Lian Hua said to himself.
No, Lotus sister~ this isn’t called being self -conscious! This is called reciprocated love~! But Bai Lian Hua was certain…….In his 21 years of life, he had never had even a little bit of romantic interest in another man. Even though he looks a little more feminine, a little cute (vomit), but deep inside, he had believed that he would never be in a relationship with another man. But at this moment while facing Song Qingge, Bai Lian Hua’s face is slightly red, his heart was pounding faster than usual…..he, facing another guy, actually blushed! He, facing another man like himself, actually felt his heart quiver in anticipation——how can this be?! Bai Lian Hua silently reflected.
When did it first start? He have always felt that Great God was very handsome. Even game he played, he had heard many stories about this legendary character. The first game he played was a game called “Red Alert”. Great God was the one who completed the game first and released a perfect strategy guide and that was when he first heard of the name “Great God”. Since then, Great God really did not betray his name and became the Great God in the hearts and minds of many young players.
Maybe from that time I started looking up to him? Like the admiration from a novice player towards pro-gamers. He had left many comments for Great God but not once were they responded to. At that time, he optimistically decided that it was a way for him to train and make his skin thicker. Now that the very person is standing before him…and to think that Great God is Roommate….
He looked down at his keyboard. SY, Roommate. And Roommate was actually a name that he chose. For some reason, Bai Lian Hua thought back to Lonely Like Snow’s recent message, “ Bai Lian Hua, in fact, I really like you! QAQ”. That must’ve been a joke right? It must be? Subconsciously, he glanced at the chat system at the bottle left of his display screen. As he had not selected a chat partner, the display remained blank causing Bai Lian Hua to almost think that nothing had happened and everything was just part of his imagination.
One by one, the monsters on the screen fell and Lonely Like Snow did not show any signs of stopping. Occasionally, Bai Lian Hue stepped forward to give the monsters a few hits and overall the entire instance process went smoothly….It was just a little too quiet. The strange feeling made him feel very uncomfortable. Bai Lian Hua placed his hand onto his keyboard wanting to say something when the guild system suddenly lit up.
[Guild] Yun Yu: SY you’re so mean. Li Shenzhou has been made anxious to the point of shriveling up by you.
[Guild] Hundred Days Red: Yun Yu the comparisons you make are always so strange.
… It seems that the guild members have some idea of when went down this afternoon.
[Guild] Yun Yu: Yun Yu is angry. By the way, let’s do the Tao Hua Yuan instance tonight.
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: Can’t
[Guild] Yunyu: White Lotus let’s do the instance together tonight..
[Guild] White Lotus: .……Okay.
[Guild] Great God: I will go too
The Great God who had never spoken on the Guild chat actually talked??
[Guild] Hundred Days Red: Great ancester actually talked! It must be because I turned on the wrong game!
Hundred Days Red you aren’t the only one! Bai Lian Hua also felt that he must have turned on the wrong game. Otherwise, why did so many impossible things happen?
Since they had decided to do the Tao Hua Yuan instance at night, they would inevitably end up staying up through the night. Looking at the time and seeing that it is four in the afternoon, it meant that there was still eight hours until the instance opens. This amount of time was enough for him to get some good sleep. He decided to go back to his dormitory when his time was up. Thinking this, Bai Lian Hua felt his mood improve.
But perhaps it was because Bai Lian Hua’s life was too smooth and God didn’t seem to be happy with that, he became unable to leave the internet cafe.
The cause of this was because of this: Lonely like Snow and Bai Lian Hua went to do a level seventy instance together. Of course, Bai Lian Hua happily accepted the soaring experience meter and he eventually reached level sixty……this speed was simply the fastest Bai Lian Hua had encountered in his whole game career!
Then, he once again encountered…..His so called master, Jingzhen Abbot! Bai Lian Hua couldn’t help but feel suspicious as he looked at the dialogue box that had appeared on his screen.
[Jingzhen Abbot: Disciple, I have not seen you for so long and you have already progressed so much. As your master, I am very pleased.→] Pleased your head! Since becoming a monk, he had not a single skill! Seeing Jingzhen Abbot, Bai Lian Hua felt his heart hurt. This scum is definitely the harbinger of evil!
[Jingzhen Abbot: And so, this master will entrust you with a secret! In fact, the Great Leiyin Temple no longer exists today and you and I are the remaining disciples in this sect. →] What secret is that? What does the Great Leiyin Temple have to do with me? Eh…..the Great Leiyin Temple is gone? No wonder no one went after those three idiots after they attacked me. Made him anticipate it for such a long time too…
[Jingzhen Abbot: Nowadays, there are many demons roaming about. As a disciple of the Great Leiyin Temple, we should not stand by and watch them act freely! →] Sorry! Bai Lian Hua sincerely expressed that he had not seen any demons with his own two eyes!
[Jingzhen Abbot: Young man! Let’s run together to the ends of the world and the sea! →] To end your life or to reincarnate?
Bai Lian Hua who was angrily complaining internally was scared to the point of nearly wetting himself when a system prompt suddenly appeared on the screen.
[System prompt: You have received the task [Eliminating the Demons]].
So this dialog box that suddenly popped up is actually a hidden task? Bai Lian Hua couldn’t remain calm and opened his own task panel. ….Can someone tell him, what is this [Blackening Light]? He had never heard of it in this game! And he had to defeat 100 [Blackened Demon]s to receive it? What is a [Blackened Demon]?
[Guild] White Lotus: Help! Where are the blackened demons?
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: Why are you asking this?
[Guild] White Lotus: Mission!
[Guild] Hundred Days Red: There are many blackened demons in the Qixi instance. Heaps of them.
[Guild] White Lotus: …Requesting to form a team for the Qixi instance.
[Guild] Yunyu: Go well White Lotus.
[Guild] Hundred Days Red: I don’t want to go back to be abused again…
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: What task requires blackened demons?
[Guild] White Lotus: Collecting the blackening light from the blackened demons.
[Guild] Lonely like Snow: .….What is that?? I have some. Eleven. Is it enough?
[Guild] Hundred Days Red: I have one. Just killed the blackened demon and died….
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: I have seventeen.
[Guild] White Lotus: I need a hundred…..
The Guild chat suddenly went quiet. The gloomy atmosphere made it seem like they were at a cemetery.
Finally, after a long time, someone spoke up.
[Guild] Great God: Half Crazy Smile, White Lotus, form team
His meaning was self-evident.
After clicking onto Great God, Bai Lian Hua chose to join the team. After a while, Half Crazy Smile also joined.
[Team] Half Crazy Smile: Yo Great God. I didn’t think that we would have the chance to do instances together.
[Team] White Lotus: Didn’t you do the instance with his other account Lonely like Snow?
[Team] Half Crazy Smiley: Eh? Lotus knows that Roommate is Great God?
[Team] Great God: Quiet
With one word, like magic, the entire chat became silent. Great God really is Great God. With just one word, he made Bai Lian Hua who was steaming like a hot bun feel a rush of coolness. Although there was air conditioning at the internet cage, it couldn’t hold a candle compared the words of Great God! ….Suddenly, he had the desire for Great God to speak more…what is wrong with him!
[Team] White Lotus: Wait a while. Going to pay the fee.
Bai Lian Hua looked at the remaining time and entered his payment.
[Team] Half Crazy Smile: Paying fee?
[Team] White Lotus: Yes. Internet cafe.
[Team] Great God: Hurry
He stood up and walked to the front desk. The manager of the Internet cafe was sitting on a chair lazily, with a half filled bottle of Coke in one hand.
”Manager, is there an air-conditioned private room?” Bai Lian Hua asked as he took out his wallet.
…
Sure enough, it is definitely more comfortable in the private room! Even the chairs were softer than the ones outside. After changing his computer and his location, he restarted the game and logged back in.
[Team] White Lotus: I just changed computer. Sorry for the wait.
[Team] Half Crazy Smile: No worries. Go, go to the instance.
Bai Lian Hua clicked onto Great God and chose to follow. The three players went all the way to the place where the instance entrance was.
[Team] Great God: Do you have medicine?
[Team] Half Crazy Smile: Many of them!
[Team] White Lotus: Yes.
After a while, the scene started changing… Then, it changed again… Bai Lian Hua stared at the unchanged scenery and was shocked.
[Jingzhen Abbot: The land of relationships cannot be entered! This disciple is being naughty again.]
Naughty your head! If it weren’t for the task of defeating “Blackened Demons”, he wouldn’t have tried to enter the instance! Also, isn’t defeating those blackened demons his mission? What is this? The one who was naughty isn’t him it’s the Abbot! —–Bai Lian Hua finally understood. This task wasn’t based on your skills and rather how many friends you have and how strong they are….
Even after playing games for so many years…he still underestimated the game’s ability to f*ck around. Bai Lian Hua dejectedly raised his head forty five degrees up and looked at the sky….although he could only see the ceiling right now………with tears at the corners of his eyes. His life was just so tiresome…..
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: Why did Lotus leave?
[Guild] White Lotus: QAQ! Jingzhen Abbot said that I cannot enter the land of relationships…..
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: ¥ #%……
[Guild] Yun Yu: 233333!
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: It doesn’t matter. Smile brother will help you.
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: I am such a great person. I’m moved to tears by myself!
[Guild] Hundred Days Red: Crying can’t prove that you are a great person, it only proves that your crying point is too low.
[Guild] Half Crazy Smile: .…..
Reality don’t be this cruel! He had just paid twenty dollars for the next four hours and had ten dollars prepared for his night session! With no instance, no Lonely like Snow, no good friends to fight monsters with……What’s the point of him playing games! Bai Lian Hua at this moment really wanted to grab Li Shenzhou’s neck and bring him down with him.
Bai Lian Hua thought about it and entered a line of words.
[Guild] White Lotus: Hundred Days Red, let’s go to Tao Hua Yuan and go fishing… Fish until 12 o’clock and then go enter the instance!
[Guild] Hundred Days Red: Master please spare me……
[[Guild] White Lotus: Yun Yu brother! I only have you!
[Guild] Yun Yu: White Lotus. You are doomed to live a lonely life.
What a cruel curse! Bai Lian Hua clutched the heart that was attacked by those words.
In the end, only he arrived at Tao Hua Yuan. As usual, it was quiet and there were no monsters or important NPC’s in the area. Generally speaking, except for the Tao Hua Yuan instance, there is not a lot of things here. What a waste of a good view.
The view is pleasant and the scenery is beautiful. If you don’t go fishing here, then were else would you go? Looking at the stream flowing by, he used his fishing skill. The figure on the computer crossed his legs and sat down by the ends of the river.
Then, Bai Lian Hua logged onto penguin. He clicked onto his class group chat and downloaded his summer homework from it….He couldn’t help it. School was about to start so he must catch up! If you talk about A University, it has many major characteristics. Apart from its ridiculous school rules, ridiculous teachers, ridiculous group activities, it also had a ridiculous amount homework to do!
When he heard that even after entering university he still had to do homework during summer and winter vacations, Bai Lian Hua really wanted to transfer! Moreover, the amount of homework that was given was not little. It immediately made Bai Lian Hua recall his difficult times in third year of high school! In addition to written assignments, he also needed to do an intership and write a report on it. He had heard that he couldn’t google the information because his perverted teacher said that he had already read the first fifty pages of results, and the remaining fifty pages were almost the same…..Teacher, why are you so hardworking! You’re making Premier Zhou cry!
At 7 o’clock in the evening, he ordered a boxed lunch for dinner. At eight, Smile and the others finally came out. Adding to the original amount of [Blackening Light], they had a total of seventy seven. What an auspicious number. Great God and Smile again came to an agreement and went back to do the instance…..Fortunately both players were male otherwise Bai Lian Hua doesn’t know what Song brother would do to the system after they’ve completed the instance…
Time passed by one minute at a time. At eleven o’clock, Bai Lian Hua completed 30 English readings and finally looked up at the computer screen. The penguin on his screen flashed and, after clicking onto it, he saw that it was a private chat from Song Qingge.
Roommate 10:04:11
Bai Lian Hua?
Roommate 10:19:23
Hey Hey Hey! Don’t tell me you fell asleep? QAQ!
…He is used to staying up all night, how could he fall asleep at ten o’clock? Bai Lian Hua couldn’t help but find it funny.
White Lotus 11:31:27
No. Looking for something?
Roommate 11:31:48
Bai Lian Hua, come to Guang Ming Peak! 24.106.86
A stone can stir up a thousand ripples. Not sure if everyone remembers Guang Ming Peak but for Bai Lian Hua it is still fresh in his memory. Thinking back, that night….he and Smile sat at Guang Ming Peak discussing about the stars, the moon, life and about Great God…..even now, he still had not confirmed the shocking news he had heard that day. Oh right, it is also a very good place to go for a date.
Opening his item bar and selecting the transfer skill, he entered the coordinates and transmitted there in a flash.
Like last time, there was no one else around. But unlike last time where the moon was a crescent moon, this time, the moon was full and round. In the sky, there were even a few magpies flying across.
However, contrary to what Bai Lian Hua had expected, he saw Great God standing there surrounded in bright light instead of “Lonely Like Snow”.
[Nearby] Great God: You’re here? Sit
[Nearby] White Lotus: …Good evening
[Nearby] Great God: Yeah
[Nearby] White Lotus: You guys came out from the instance?
[Nearby] Great God: Yeah
.. … So, why did Song brother call out Bai Lian Hua? Little Lotus will be scared away if you continue acting so coldly! Please don’t hesitate! For the sake of love and peace, for the sake of a happy future, use your ridiculous temperament of “Roommate” and just out with it! Throw away your rhythm!
[System Tip: Player [Great God] uses [Blackening Light] X117 to trade with you 0 gold 0 silver 1 copper]. Bai Lian Hua chose to accept. The next moment, the system prompted him that he had completed the task.
[System prompt: You have completed the task [Eliminate the Demons], the reward has been randomly selected].
Bai Lian Hua opened his backpack and swept his eyes across the first page. The first one on the first row on the first page, a dark red scroll laid there quietly. What? He moved his mouse over the dark red scroll.
”[Mysterious map] Details: Unknown.”
What is this? He closed his backpack and reported to Great God.
[Nearby] White Lotus: Song Qingge. I received a map.
[Nearby] Great God: Yeah
……So awkward! I dare you to say yeah again you bastard.
[Nearby] White Lotus: So you called me out here to do this exchange?
[Nearby] Great God: No
[nearby] White Lotus: .….Then what is it?
Bai Lian Hua indignantly scratched at his computer desktop. Just say it! Are you trying to keep me hanging here? Don’t be so naughty Song brother!
[Nearby] Great God: I don’t know
Don’t know your head!
[Nearby] White Lotus: Song Qingge…
[Nearby] Great God: Yeah
[Nearby] White Lotus: Have you always talked so little? QAQ. Why is it you become very talkative as Roommate?
[Nearby] Great God: Habit
[Nearby] White Lotus: This habit is not good at all! The two of you are clearly so different QAQ
[Nearby] Great God: Yeah
[Nearby] White Lotus: …..Forgive me. In addition to the initial horror, every time I see those two accounts, I feel awkward!
[Nearby] Great God: Get used to it
Get used to it your head! I can’t get used to something like this even after a hundred years! Little lotus silently bit onto his handkerchief as he sat before the computer.
[Nearby] White Lotus: Have you always been so quiet?
[Nearby] Great God: Used to be
[nearby] White Lotus: Why?
[Nearby] Great God: Used to have slight autism
[nearby] White Lotus: I think you have it now! QAQ!
[Nearby] Great God: Rubbish! The doctor clearly said that I am normal!
[Nearby] White Lotus: ….Suddenly seeing you using this account to speak like that….I can’t get used to it
[Nearby] Great God: Only a strong mind can support a weak soul.
Bai Lian Hua went silent as he copied and pasted this sentence into his penguin signature.
The chat box was silent for a while, and after Bai Lian Hua hesitated for a while, he took the lead to break the silence.
[Nearby] White Lotus: Smile said that he confessed to you before. Is it true?
[Nearby] Great God: …
[nearby] Great God: How can it be true ==. Lian Hua did you feed your IQ to the dog?
[Nearby] White Lotus: Smile said so QAQ He said since then you won’t talk to him anymore!
[Nearby] Great God: It has nothing to do with that! QAQ
[Nearby] White Lotus: Requesting for specifics!
[Nearby] Great God: Little child, it’s best if you don’t know too much.
[Nearby] White Lotus: Asshole! You’re obviously younger than me! QAQ
[Nearby] Great God: Be good. Listen to the words of Great God.
[Nearby] White Lotus: …
