[Fallen! The new character banner for "Genshin Impact" is open!! It's Klee!!]
The barrage was almost flooded with this message.
Fallen naturally saw it too.
"What!? The Klee banner is open?"
Fallen was shocked. Before this, miHoYo hadn't released any specific information about opening the banner.
And now it suddenly opened.
Without hesitation, he immediately pressed Alt+F4 and launched "Genshin Impact"!
"This miHoYo, ever since they released that photo of the real-life Hu Tao and Klee last time, they haven't said anything specific about opening the banner."
As he said this, he quickly logged into the game. When the door opened, instead of the game loading screen, there was a very cheerful music playing.
On the screen, several large words quickly appeared.
Stormbearer Mountains; True Red Legend; Bouncing. Destroy.
Uncontainable Sun.
You should know the consequences; very hot red.
Confinement Room.
Fish is very delicious, so it's worth it!
Mondstadt's Strongest Knight!
After the subtitles finished scrolling, a cute little loli appeared on the screen.
She tilted her head, hands behind her back, swaying her little body.
"Hmm? Are you here to play with Klee~?"
"Then, you'll be in charge of watching the wind~"
As she spoke, Klee's movements were full of innocent cuteness.
She lifted the little backpack on her back and turned to look at the Traveler, "If you see Captain Jean, be sure to tell me immediately~"
With that, Klee happily bounced up, "Let's go~~"
And the screen smoothly transitioned into an illustration of Klee.
[Klee -- Spark Knight]
[Pyro Element]
Seeing this, whether it was the audience in the livestream or Fallen, they couldn't help but show a maternal smile.
"This... this is too cute!!"
"Damn! It's making me want to have a daughter~"
On the screen, accompanied by lively and playful music, Klee also showcased her normal attacks and elemental burst.
"Bouncing bombs~"
"This time, I used the enhanced firepower from when the fish isn't exploding~"
With Klee's adorable bomb-throwing actions and her soft, cute voice...
Fallen was completely enchanted.
"Oh my god... this is purely trying to make me have a daughter."
"Even her running is so cute!"
On the screen, Klee was blocked by Captain Jean and confined to a room.
As the clock rapidly jumped, the door to the confinement room suddenly opened.
"Wow~"
Klee's adorable face filled the entire screen.
This scene was like a heavy blow to the audience.
"Dada~"
"Lala~"
As Klee unleashed her ultimate, the music became even more cheerful.
Behind Klee, various exploding flames burned.
And Klee, with her indifferent stride, slowly walked forward.
Seeing this, Fallen was completely overwhelmed, "Ah. I can't take it anymore xdm!!"
"Charge! I'm going to pull until I'm broke!!"
The barrage was also filled with excitement.
It's worth mentioning that, in this world, Mo Li deliberately retained Klee's walking posture.
Playing with bombs, the adorable little loli, combined with her indifferent stride, really made people unable to resist the urge to spend money.
After watching the character demo video.
The game directly entered the wish screen.
Without hesitation, Fallen charged for a dozen 648 yuan.
"Brothers, today I will show you what it means to be a true luck god!"
Fallen directly exchanged all his Primogems for Intertwined Fates.
"With over 600 pulls, will I get a full constellation plus the featured weapon?"
The barrage was filled with "No".
Fallen sneered, "Watch me!"
At the same time, countless "Genshin Impact" players also logged into the game one after another, spending money on Klee.
[She's really too cute, I can't resist spending money at all...]
[I, a lifelong freeloader, have finally broken my vow, sob sob sob~]
[My girlfriend doesn't play "Genshin Impact," but she was deeply attracted by Klee and directly helped me purchase a few 648 pulls!]
[Brother, do another pull, jpg]
[Since pulling Klee, my 'auntie smile' hasn't stopped, my roommates think I've turned into a weirdo QAQ]
[But she's really too cute sob sob sob...]
[Roommates of ten years of single life changing for Klee!! Ahh...]
Just as players were discussing Klee and showing off the Klee characters they pulled, a new announcement from miHoYo once again excited the players completely.
"Genshin Impact" will hold a preview livestream for version 1.1 a week from now at 8 p.m.!!
And, this will be a global synchronized livestream!!
By then, both Klee and Hu Tao will appear in the livestream.
What's more, miHoYo's boss will also be hosting this livestream!!
Finally, the livestream will also give out a 300 Primogem redemption code!!
With these announcements, players were completely stirred up.
They didn't care about the 300 Primogems anymore.
What they cared about most was Mo Li's first appearance.
His real-life appearance has always been a curiosity for players.
And they can finally shout "MiHoYo Boss, look at my sword!" right in front of Mo Li!
Of course, the anticipation for Klee was also high.
What would the adorable Klee in the game look like in real life?
Countless expectations filled their bodies, and players couldn't wait for the livestream day to arrive!
Not only were the players excited, but countless livestream platforms at home and abroad also sensed the flow of traffic.
They actively approached Mo Li, wanting to cooperate with him on this livestream.
Mo Li didn't refuse any of them.
He agreed to every platform that came to him.
While players were looking forward to it, Mo Li was also busy.
While setting up the preview livestream room, he also urged Ningguang to hurry up with the costume for Zhongli.
Until now, Mo Li was still struggling whether to appear as Zhongli, or as Otto, or use his own appearance.
The reason was that his image in the players' minds has always been like that of Otto, a villain.
If he suddenly became the emperor guarding Liyue, players might have some trouble accepting it.
It's worth mentioning that the 1.1 version's banner was originally for Zhongli and Tartaglia.
But banners can be adjusted at any time.
Moreover, the main storyline of Liyue also includes Ganyu's plot.
Whether Ganyu comes first or later doesn't make much difference.
During this period, Fu Hua also completed the dubbing for the new version's extra story of "Honkai Impact 3."
At the same time, Bronya also finished her dubbing work.
However, because of Ganyu's shyness, she eventually gave up the opportunity to appear in this livestream.
What surprised Mo Li was that his casual invitation to the livestream was actually accepted by Ningguang.
So, the main guests of this livestream became Mo Li, Hu Tao, and Ningguang. As for Klee... a little loli, what does she know about livestreams?
By the time of the livestream, which came in the blink of an eye, it was already the scheduled day.
At 7:30 p.m.
In various major livestream platforms around the world, miHoYo's official livestream channel had already opened. At this moment, the screen in the livestream room was a poster, accompanied by the symphony "Liyue."
Countless viewers also poured in.
While enjoying the music, they played around with jokes related to "Genshin Impact" and "Honkai Impact 3."
[Open the door already!!]
[It's 7:30, can't you open the door earlier?]
[Otto, look at my sword!!]
[Otto, you scoundrel, give back my sister!!]
[MiHoYo, I advise you not to send out knives in the future!!]
Players from around the world were eagerly awaiting.
The livestream hadn't even started yet, but those livestream platforms had already put it on their biggest recommendation pages.
Finally, the time came to 8 p.m.
The screen in the livestream room changed from that poster to an antique room.
In the room, there sat a man and a woman.
The man was tall and handsome, with a calm demeanor.
The woman was noble and elegant, beautiful and charming.
When players saw these two, anyone who had played "Genshin Impact" would immediately recognize them, even though they hadn't seen them in the game. But judging from their attire, they were filled with the strong flavor of "Genshin Impact."
Dragon-style, paired with anime...
This is too familiar, could it be the new character in Genshin Impact?
"Good evening, travelers~" Just as players were lost in thought, the noble white-haired woman spoke.
"I am in Genshin Impact, playing as one of Liyue's Seven Stars, the Tianquan Star—Ningguang~" She then looked at Mo Li opposite her. "This is... the boss of miHoYo, the creator of Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact 3, and the voice actor for Otto."
"At the same time, he is also the performer of Zhongli, a client of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor in Genshin Impact—Mo Li~"
Mo Li put down his teacup and nodded calmly.
Seeing this, the barrage was filled with question marks.
[?? Otto looks like this??]
[Wow!! So handsome!]
[This aura has me firmly in its grasp...]
[Don't say... even I, a big man, feel captured]
[So... should we still cancel him?]
[...How about temporarily letting him go? We can cancel him when he appears as Otto?]
[Haha... Morality follows the facial features, huh...]
[Give out 300 Primogems, and I'll spare the scoundrel today!!]
[300 Primogems collective amnesia!!]
Seeing these barrage messages, Mo Li also breathed a sigh of relief.
After a pause, he slowly spoke, "Okay, let's give out 300 Primogems today!"
With this statement, there were even more question marks in the barrage.
They were just playing around with memes, who would have thought that miHoYo's boss would actually take it seriously!!
[Wow! Otto... no, the Emperor is majestic!]
[Boss is generous!!]
[Is this for real? I have to bow down to him!]
[Come to think of it... it's just about $30, but I feel strangely grateful]
[Indeed... 300 Primogems isn't much, but I feel like miHoYo has a conscience...]
[Uh-oh! Got played by miHoYo's CPU...]
[Illiterate, that's NBA!]
The barrage was extremely enthusiastic.
And behind the scenes, the girls who were debugging the livestream equipment couldn't help but laugh.
These players were quite cute.
Ningguang was also stunned by Mo Li's words.
But she quickly reacted and smiled lightly, "I suppose, everyone must be curious about the new content and activities in the new version, as well as the identity of this Mr. Zhongli in front of me~"
After hearing Ningguang's words, countless players became thoroughly excited.
They never expected that miHoYo's boss would actually include himself in the gacha pool!!
"Next, please watch a character showcase video to get a preliminary understanding of this Mr. Zhongli~"
After Ningguang finished speaking, the girls behind immediately began debugging the equipment.
And the screen in the livestream room dimmed.
"Genshin Impact Character Showcase - 'Zhongli: The Listener'"
As the video started, a passerby holding a folding fan began reciting, "We last left off with ancient Liyue beset by an ocean demon and a mountain dragon"
"Rex Lapis mustered his adepti to restore peace to the land."
With the narrator's voice, the camera slowly panned to the audience.
Players immediately recognized the calm and tea-cup-holding man in the audience as Mo Li, the boss.
"They say that before he set out, he spoke these words..."
As the narrator's words fell, the music suddenly changed.
With the erhu, drum beats, and the sound of the guzheng, a heavy and majestic tune was played.
Upon first hearing it, it made people's scalps tingle, bringing an overwhelming sense of epicness.
And in the video, Zhongli's artwork slowly appeared.
With a dust-lock in hand, a handsome face, and peach-colored eye makeup that didn't diminish his masculine aura but added a touch of divinity to it.
[Zhongli—The Wandering Immortal]
[Rock Element]
Following that, Zhongli's normal attacks and elemental burst were demonstrated.
The sharp spear flowers, accompanied by the slow movements of the Eastern dragon, along with the music played by the erhu...
The audience felt goosebumps all over.
Especially for viewers from the Dragon nation, when they saw the dragon form, their eyes widened. They finally... they finally saw the appearance of the Eastern dragon in the eyes of people all over the world! Previously, dragons in fantasy games had always been Western dragons. They had never seen an Eastern dragon!
And now, Genshin Impact has allowed players all over the world to witness the sacred form of the Eastern dragon.
But what surprised them even more was...
Until the music gradually reached its climax.
Zhongli's monologue slowly sounded, "This is an age of gods and monsters. I wish not for dominion, yet I cannot watch the common folk suffer."
As the erhu's rhythm became faster, the video showed Zhongli's attacks from various angles.
Paired with ink paintings... the overflowing Dragon-style elements directly hit people from all over the world in the face.
It wasn't until the erhu played a few high-pitched notes.
The Emperor in the video gave a low drink, "I will have order~"
The stars fell, and countless monsters were turned into stone statues.
[Wow!!! Insane!!!]
[miHoYo's music and art never disappoint me]
[The first time I've seen an erhu play a battle song!! miHoYo is amazing!]
[So cool!! Ahhh!!]
[miHoYo, can you please stop showing off like this? Can't I pull too? Sob...]
[This erhu piece isn't just music, it's hitting my wallet!! QAQ]
At this moment, gamers all over the world felt the shock from "The Listener."
Even after the video showcase ended, the barrage was still densely packed.
And the screen in the livestream room returned to that antique room.
Ningguang was also amazed by this character showcase video.
She took a deep breath, suppressed her excitement, and smiled at Mo Li. "I believe everyone has a good understanding of this character Zhongli. So... what is his identity on the continent of Teyvat?"
In fact, players already knew that this "Zhongli" should be a god of Liyue. In this form, they were really satisfied, too satisfied.
Mo Li said lightly, "Just a client of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, not worth mentioning~"
Ningguang pretended to be puzzled, "Oh? Wangsheng Funeral Parlor?"
Before she could finish speaking, a lively and cute voice entered the livestream room.
"Hehe~ I am the 77th Funeral Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor—Hu Tao~"
Hu Tao had been waiting eagerly on the side.
As her voice fell, the mischievous Hu Tao jumped in front of the camera and made a funny face.
A burst of beauty hit the screen.
Unlike Xiangling, Hu Tao was also a social terror.
Naturally, she wouldn't be nervous in front of the camera.
"Travelers' lives... should be accompanied by danger, right?"
As she spoke, Hu Tao bounced over to Mo Li's side, leaned on his shoulder, and laughed playfully at the camera, "Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's limited-time offer, second stele half off~"
"Do you want me to give you a ride?"
Barrage: [Why does this Funeral Parlor Director seem so strange?]
