Fang Qi only told Lan Yan a small section of The King's Avatar. He began with Chapter 1: The Banished Battle God and ended with Ye Xiu getting the first kill, obtaining the material to enhance his Myriad Manifestation Umbrella.

Of course, Fang Qi somewhat changed the plot of the story.

Nalan Mingxue's eyes blinked; the plot and setting of the story were extremely real, and she couldn't find any loopholes. It really sounded like a world that existed.

But it wasn't the Dajin Empire!

Putting its validity aside, the story itself was extremely fascinating. After all, they've never heard of a story that used 'gaming' as its theme.

A game like that was extremely new and unique to people like them!

"Right? Right? Ye Xiu is strong, right?" Lan Yan exhaled and exclaimed happily upon seeing that Nalan Mingxue had accepted the fact that the story was real.

The latter gently nodded her head.

"I really wanted to keep listening, but that awful owner stopped and went back to playing his game!" Lan Yan complained, "I feel bad for a master like Ye Xiu. He was betrayed by his own party and became a lone soul. I wonder if he went back in the end."

...

"Achoo!" Fang Qi was playing his game when he sneezed. After innocently scanning the room, he muttered to himself, "Is someone talking about me?"

"I was in a good mood and told her a portion of the King's Avatar. I wonder if that girl took the story seriously."

...

The entire hall fell into silence after they heard Nalan Ying retell the story.

The silence was horrifying as if it were the calm before a storm.

"How much of what you said do you think is real?" After a long time, Nalan Hongwu finally asked as he emphasized each word. He was clenching his teeth and suppressing his anger.

If Nalan Ying hadn't worked under him for so long, Nalan Hongwu would seriously suspect that this man was trying to humiliate his intelligence.

"That's... what I thought as well; I thought most of the things that the owner said was made up," Nalan Ying began to sweat; he knew how scary the old man was when he was angry!

Right now, the old man was on the verge of an anger explosion!

He felt like if he said anything else carelessly, he would be thrown into the backyard and fed to the dogs tomorrow!

Therefore, he quickly described to Nalan Hongwu how he felt while trying out Diablo II at Fang Qi's internet café.

By the time he finished, Nalan Hongwu couldn't sit still in his seat anymore. He squinted his eyes and sank into deep thought.

After a while, he slowly opened his mouth; his voice sounded hoarse, like pieces of old tree bark rubbing against each other. "Do you think I'm too old... and can't catch up with the world anymore...?"

"..." Nalan Ying lowered his head, not sure how to respond to this.

After hearing Nalan Ying's description, Nalan Hongwu said, "Get me a 'computer'."
