“Yeah?” Fang Qi still hesitated.

If the person writing the novel had a deep understanding of the game, the story itself might be more impressionable.

“Why don’t you… give it a try? If I approve of your writing skills, then you can go ahead.”

“What are you talking about?” Song Qingfeng and the others walked up to them upon seeing the three of them engaged in a heated discussion.

“Don’t worry!” Xu Zixin leaned back on her computer chair and closed her eyes in satisfaction. She smiled and said, “We’re talking about publishing an official novel for Diablo II.”

“What? A novel for Diablo II?” Song Qingfeng exclaimed; compared to Resident Evil One, Diablo II’s story line was much broader. Moreover, since the game gave the players more freedom to explore, they paid less attention to the plot.

However, that didn’t mean Diablo II’s plot wasn’t interesting; there were just way too many interesting aspects of the game.

Therefore, upon hearing that they were going to publish a novel, they were immediately interested. “When?”

“Brother An,” Bu Che and the others were talking about the skills in the game when he turned around and pointed at Fang Qi. “The owner said that he’s going to publish a novel for Diablo II.”

“What’s the storyline of Diablo II?” An Cheng froze. “I only paid attention to the items and skills and completely ignored the plot…”

“Stuff like demons and angels… My focus is on the combat, and I also didn’t really listen to what the game was talking about. It’s interesting though; the plot is more original than the popular novels we have right now.” Ouyang Cheng chimed in, “Should we buy one when it comes out?”

“Let’s ask the owner when the novel will be published!” Bu Che added. “I know that Blood Raven used to be a heroine, and Tristram was destroyed by the demons. I have no idea why everything happened. If that’s the case…”

They glanced at each other and wondered, Are we really able to read stuff like that…?

“I kind of want to read it…”

Before, novels weren’t worth reading because they were all just unrealistic fantasies!

But for the first time in their lives, they were interested!

– Inside the grand hall of the Nalan Family –

Nalan Hongwu slowly opened his eyes and asked, “Did you bring a computer back?”

“I’m… useless!” Nalan Ying lowered his head.

“Hm?” Nalan Hongwu’s eyes emitted a dangerous light as he asked and emphasized each word, “What happened? I thought I told you to bring the Shadow Guards.”

At the mention of this, Nalan Ying couldn’t help but think back to the Shadow Guards ‘break dancing’ outside the internet café. He replied with a long face, “… He is too strong. I don’t even know when he did it, but the Shadow Guards were annihilated! They were all struck to the ground by a lightning technique!”

“Lightning technique?” Nalan Hongwu repeated with a grim expression on his face, “The lightning technique of cultivators gathers the lightning from the heavens and earth, but there are usually clear signs of such a strike beforehand. How come the Shadow Guards weren’t able to dodge it?”
