Guinaifen was momentarily stunned by the scene. She had been so immersed that she almost forgot it was just a game. Even though it was turn-based, she still found it interesting. The visual detail was so high that she was eager to try it.
"Um, can I try playing?"
"Of course." Lin Yu had been waiting for her to ask.
Guinaifen set her streaming phone aside, fixing it at an angle that looked directly at the game screen. She explained to her viewers, "Fam, don't be so disappointed. It's turn-based, but look at the quality of the graphics. This is better than almost any game out there. Let's play a bit more before we judge it."
—"Little Gui is right! I support her!"
—"Meh, turn-based games are boring. But I have to say, Kafka has a great figure."
—"The guy above me has a death wish. Don't you know she's one of the most dangerous people in the galaxy?"
—"Careful, she might crawl through your network cable and gouge your eyes out (Threat)."
—"I was talking about the character, not the real Kafka..."
Guinaifen followed the in-game prompts and used Kafka's basic attack. It was a clean, sharp sword strike. In the second round, she was able to use a skill. Kafka shifted her stance, holding her blade horizontally in front of her.
"Might as well finish them all off."
This time, it was a more intense three-stage slash, with the final hit creating a web-like shattering effect. With a crisp sound, the lightning element weakness on the monsters broke. Two of the monsters collapsed.
[Battle End]
"Huh? That's it?" Guinaifen complained. "I haven't had enough combat yet. This is the Stellaron Hunter Kafka! Fam, it feels totally different to actually control a character like this!"
—"I thought it would be 'you hit me, then I hit you,' but this looks more complex."
—"The animations are actually quite flashy."
—"Streamer, go fight another monster!"
—"Yeah, I didn't get a good look."
At the viewers' request, Guinaifen steered Kafka deeper into the space station in search of more enemies. Meanwhile, the dialogue between Kafka and her companion continued in the background.
"When did the Antimatter Legion become so weak?" Kafka sighed.
"I could only lure in this many. You don't want the Legion's main force noticing this place, do you?"
"Small fry like this won't be enough to pin down the Astral Express crew."
"Don't worry, a Doomsday Beast is on its way."
Watching the text fly by, Guinaifen looked enlightened. She told her stream, "So the Stellaron Hunters aren't here to help. They actually lured the Legion here! They want to use the chaos to complete their plan! As expected of the Stellaron Hunters their methods are terrifying!"
About half the stream's audience was now more interested in the plot than the gameplay. Guinaifen's commentary sparked a heated discussion.
—"Is the game played from the perspective of the Stellaron Hunters?"
—"The opening is huge, I just hope they can keep it up."
—"The developer is bold, that's for sure. Aren't they afraid of the IPC or the Stellaron Hunters coming after them?"
Passing through a quiet hallway, they saw portraits of famous people hanging on the walls. These were real-life historical figures, which made the viewers even more excited. Was this game truly set in reality?
Soon, they reached the interior of the station and engaged a Voidranger. The second battle began!
"Listen to the sound of your breath."
This time, there were five enemies. After Kafka attacked, it was the enemy's turn. The Voidrangers' dual-blade attacks looked painful. Suddenly, the icon next to the character portrait in the bottom left lit up.
[Energy full. Activate Ultimate immediately.]
Guinaifen did so instantly.
Vroom—!
A portrait of Kafka under an umbrella flashed across the screen. Her sword stance shifted as she drew dual submachine guns.
"A beautiful moment always has an end~"
Dark purple energy swirled around her, ready to explode. The attack button on the right indicated that this Ultimate was an area-of-effect attack. Guinaifen licked her lips and tapped the button!
"Time to say goodbye."
Then, everyone watching saw a truly stunning sight. Kafka, guns in hand, seemed to dance through the crowd of monsters. She spun and leaped, a graceful whirlwind of destruction. The air was filled with muzzle flashes, silver lines, and flying brass casings... it was a masterpiece of motion.
As the firing ceased, the camera zoomed in for a close-up of Kafka. She made an "explosion" gesture with her hand and whispered a single word.
"Bong~"
Zzzzt—!
The surrounding monsters were engulfed in a series of explosions that made the screen shake. When the smoke cleared, every single monster was gone. Not one remained!
Silence absolute silence. Even the stream chat went blank for several seconds.
