"Deep Sea," as the last of the Five Gods, wasn’t just a little behind the top-ranking "Hunter" in strength.
He was willing to show his face and interact with fans, and on top of being good-looking and having many female fans, it seemed like he had a bigger reputation.
But in reality, when it came to die-hard fans, the other four gods combined didn’t have as many as "Hunter" alone.
When "Deep Sea" made his appearance as a mystery guest, he had instantly set the internet on fire.
This time, even without showing his face, "Hunter" skyrocketed to the top of the trending searches!
Those who had originally gone to Lucine’s livestream for nostalgia saw this trend and, with a mix of doubt and belief, ended up in the "world" team’s livestream. Updates are released by novel•fire.net
They would only watch "Deep Sea" after confirming him as the guest and after the nostalgia card had been played in the advertising.
But with "Hunter," even the slightest possibility was enough for no one to want to miss out!
For a moment, the "world" team’s livestream room’s popularity surged, even causing lag due to the sudden influx of viewers!
When the new arrivals only saw Lu You in the live broadcast, they were angry, but after being reminded by others to rewind and watch Lu You’s display of skill, they became excited one by one.
Anyone who truly knew racing could see the significant difference between Lu You’s driving in that moment and the skills shown in the online video.
Without being taught by the person himself, it could never be achieved to that extent!
In the afternoon, the livestream room that should have been Lu You’s domain was overwhelmed with comments like, "Please, ’Hunter,’ come out, even just a fingertip will do!"
To this, Lu You and Kyle showed no displeasure, rather, feeling in awe of "Hunter’s" influence.
Lucine, having finished her race with "Deep Sea," parked the car at the foot of the mountain and couldn’t wait to check her phone to see the praise for her and "Deep Sea" in the comments.
But to her surprise, upon opening the livestream, not only had the viewership dropped to a quarter, but even those who remained weren’t discussing her explosive race with "Deep Sea," instead, they were all talking about Lu You?
What on earth was going on?
Lucine and "Deep Sea" returned to the top of the mountain, got out of the car full of confusion, and saw their manager standing there, looking pale.
Upon seeing the two of them, the manager’s voice trembled as he said, "Lu You’s side managed to get ’Hunter’..."
"Hunter??" Lucine and "Deep Sea" almost shouted in unison.
The manager nodded, sighed with a sense of loss, and recounted what had happened in just a few minutes.
After listening, Lucine slammed down angrily into the driver’s seat behind her.
"Deep Sea," on the other hand, was quite calm.
He had already accepted the fact that he was thoroughly outmatched by "Hunter" five years ago.
"Give it up," Deep Sea said to Lucine, who was still full of unwillingness, "Hunter hasn’t even shown his face and yet has fans this crazy, not even watching my race... No matter what we do, we can’t possibly win against them."
Lucine kept her eyes tightly shut, saying nothing.
She couldn’t have imagined that Kyle had the capability to invite "Hunter" to coach!
Thinking back to the past few days when the manager had bought bot traffic to slander Lu You and stir up controversy, Lucine felt a breath stuck in her chest, unable to go up or down.
Without guessing, she knew what kind of laughingstock she would become once the news got back to Country Y.
In the end, Chi Gui never showed his face.
The fans stationed in Lu You’s livestream room were used to it and would show up punctually every day, fearing that they would miss "Hunter" accidentally appearing in the off-chance that the camera was angled wrong.
Lucine’s livestream room, even with "Deep Sea’s" support, lost popularity day by day, and the week-long broadcast was hastily ended after just five days.
Chi Gui didn’t pay any attention to this.
After resolving the "world" livestream room crisis, she went to visit Academician Wu in Yun County.
