Chapter 14 Slaying Gods
"It's 11:58, only two minutes left!" Fan Xiaochen glanced at the time and became agitated.
"Luo, Luo, are you ready?" He looked up at his roommate sleeping on the bed next to him.
The phone light illuminated Lao Luo's face as he whispered, "Don't worry, I've already told everyone in the novel-related groups I've been added to that we're going to slay a god today!"
Upon hearing the words "slaying gods," Fan Xiaochen got goosebumps with excitement.
Just thinking about it makes his brain release dopamine like crazy.
cybercafe.
Even though it was late at night, it was still lively and noisy.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, it's almost midnight, I'm going to contribute a first subscription to 'Covering the Sky' first."
A young man wearing headphones said to his friends who were playing games together, and then picked up his phone to check the time.
11: 59.
Millennium Elegant Spa.
Two middle-aged men lay with their eyes closed on professional spa chairs, while two pretty young women were attentively massaging and rubbing them.
One of the middle-aged men suddenly asked, "What time is it?"
"VIP, it's 11:59."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Hand over the phone."
My friend turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Didn't I tell you? 'Covering the Sky' will be available tonight at midnight, and I have to contribute a first-day subscription."
My friend laughed and said, "You're quite serious about this."
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "There's nothing I can do about it. You know me, I just love this kind of thing. I liked watching it when I was in school."
"Moreover, this book, 'Covering the Sky,' is unlike any other novel I've ever read. You can check it out if you're interested."
My friend shook his head: "Forget it, I don't like reading novels. I still prefer foot massages."
The middle-aged man smiled and shook his head, opened the Endpoint Novel App, and patiently waited for the last minute to arrive.
Authentic Wang-style Sichuan stir-fry.
"Old Wang, make some salt-fried pork over rice!"
A taxi driver walked in and spoke to the middle-aged man sitting there.
Judging from appearances, he's a regular at this hole-in-the-wall restaurant.
"Wait a minute." Old Wang, a middle-aged man, said without looking up from his phone.
"What's going on? What are you so engrossed in?" The taxi driver walked over and looked down at his phone screen.
"Don't panic, it's almost midnight, we must support this author right on the hour."
"Hey, I thought it was something serious, turns out you're reading a novel." The taxi driver scoffed. "Hurry up, I'm starving."
"I know, I know, don't rush me. If you're hungry, go get some kimchi over there and eat it." Old Wang said without looking up.
Qinglin Road.
A row of taxis were parked on the side of the road, waiting to pick up passengers.
Old Zhang sat in the driver's seat.
He was a slightly overweight middle-aged man who supported his family by driving a taxi.
My biggest hobby is reading novels.
He stared at his phone screen, muttering to himself, "It's almost midnight."
He opened the Endpoint Novel App and looked at the book on the bookshelf called "Covering the Sky".
"The ocean is no match for water" is a veteran author, so I'm giving you a first-time subscription; I hope it helps.
...
Meanwhile, similar scenes to those of Lao Wang and Lao Zhang are happening all over the country.
The vast majority of readers who love "Covering the Sky" put down what they were doing and opened the Endpoint Novel App as midnight approached.
Most readers know something about the relationship between Xu An and Cang Hai Nan Wei Shui.
The newcomer's declaration of war against the veteran idol inexplicably excited and thrilled his fans, giving them a sense of shared glory.
It was as if they were all warriors who were not afraid of power and dared to fight.
Perhaps this is the power of words.
"It's twelve o'clock!"
When the time jumped to 00:00, everyone who opened the Endpoint Novel APP at the same time received a message.
"A new chapter has been updated in the book you are following."
Everyone opened the book and clicked to subscribe.
Xu An kept his promise and released a whopping 100 chapters immediately after the book went on sale!
This drove hardcore book fans into a frenzy.
Xu An is the first author in history to release a novel with a whopping 100 chapters, breaking the record for the fastest release of a novel on the Endpoint Novel website.
Some people made their first subscription and temporarily turned off their phones to go to sleep, while others put down their phones and continued doing their own things. Still others continued reading after subscribing, seemingly wanting to read all 100 chapters released in one go.
The mastermind behind all of this is already fast asleep.
He had already set up scheduled updates for all the chapters that were being released during the day.
Before midnight, Fan Xiaochen and Lao Luo were still full of excitement, but after subscribing, they suddenly calmed down, feeling a sense of emptiness after a shiver.
This feeling didn't last long. When they saw that there were a hundred chapters left to read, the two focused their attention on the book's content and gradually became engrossed in it.
......
The next day.
Xu An returned from his run at eight o'clock.
The red sun slowly rose in the east, and the thin fog in the air gradually dissipated.
The morning air had a chilly feel to it.
After breakfast, I continued writing.
Last night's massive update of 100 chapters significantly reduced his stockpile of drafts.
The Sky Forum was as lively as ever, with the main focus still being "Covering the Sky" and "Cataclysm: The Necromancer".
Everyone is discussing it and looking forward to the results coming out at midnight tonight.
Let's see if "Covering the Sky" can dethrone the high and mighty "Cataclysm: The Necromancer".
Xu An, one of the parties involved, did not pay attention like they did, but instead immersed himself in writing.
I don't know if he was genuinely calm or if he was just absolutely confident in himself.
Dinner, at the dining table.
Xu's mother asked, "An'an, how did your chat with Le Yao go?"
Xu An paused in his eating. "It's alright."
Upon hearing this, Xu's mother frowned: "What do you mean 'okay'? You're always hanging around at home these days, with nothing to do anyway. Spend more time chatting with others and build some relationships."
Upon hearing this, Xu An felt quite helpless.
"Mom, I have important things to do right now, I'm not just playing around all day. Besides, what's this talk about developing feelings? It's not even close to happening yet."
Seeing his mother glare at him, Xu An quickly softened his tone: "Oh, I understand, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
At this moment, Xu's father chimed in, "Old Lin, the boy has already said he knows what he's doing. Let's take it slow. We've created the conditions for him; now it's up to him to decide."
"That's right, that's right, my old man is right, let's take it slow." Xu An quickly agreed.
Mrs. Xu glanced at Mr. Xu with dissatisfaction and muttered, "Take it slow, take it slow, take it really slow. I think you should wait until you're in your forties or fifties to get married!"
Xu An smiled bitterly, pretending not to hear.
If he says a few more words, Xu's mother will definitely increase her intensity, and he won't be able to handle it.
As the only son in the family, he had no older brothers or sisters to share the burden.
