Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch - Chapter 639
Chapter 639: Chapter 606: Can We Watch This Without Spending Money?
Yelang had already agreed in his heart.
But he thought that agreeing outright would be too unfair, so he said to Yi: “Fine, but I demand fairness.”
“How do you want to make it fair?”
“You have to change too, and I have to touch it back!”
As soon as Yelang said this, not only the people at the scene, but also the fans in the live broadcast room immediately got excited!
But they underestimated Yi’s thick skin. Yi simply nodded and said decisively, “No problem, that’s very reasonable.”
“Shall we start then?” He eagerly walked over and raised his hand.
Winter Melon was obviously not happy. “I transformed too, can’t you let me touch it as well?”
“Get lost!” Yelang had absolutely no patience for this main culprit.
Taking a deep breath to calm his emotions, and ignoring the strangeness in his heart, he straightened his body—previously he had been subconsciously hunched over from not being used to the extra part on his chest.
“Wow, you’re so big.” Yi blurted out unconsciously.
“Get lost! What are you talking about!” Yelang almost said ‘I’m even bigger down there’, but he wisely held himself back.
Not only because it was crude, but more importantly—right now, he really didn’t have anything down there…
Yi didn’t want to anger him and make him change his mind, so he stopped talking and simply grabbed it!
“Ah!” Xiao Yeye let out a soft yelp and hastily retreated to protect her chest. “Be gentle!”
Yi looked at his palm in surprise. “I touched it? So according to the System, you’re still male?”
“Can’t be… let me try again.”
“?” Yelang was puzzled. “The result is already out, why do you need to try again?”
“We need to be rigorous! If not double-blind testing, at least we should repeat it several times, right?”
“Stop bullshitting! It’s your turn to change now!”
Seeing that Yelang was not willing, Yi shook his head regretfully. “Fine, fine, I won’t touch it. As for my transformation… isn’t there a potion for that now?”
Yi looked at Winter Melon. “Send me the potion recipe, I’ll go gather the materials. Once I find the materials, we can discuss what to do next.”
With that, he opened the panel and prepared to leave.
“!!!”
Yelang of course wouldn’t let Yi just run away. He immediately grabbed his arm. “Today! You’re not getting away!”
Yi stopped. “I’d love to, but there’s no transformation potion, right?”
“Let’s go find it now!” Yelang was determined not to be at a disadvantage. He asked Winter Melon, “What’s the recipe?”
“A bottle of water, plus Sunflower, Moonlight Grass, Shining Root, Shimmering Chrysanthemum, Deathweed, Chilling Thorn, and Flame Flower. Once you have all of them, just use the Alchemy Table to synthesize.”
“That many?” Yelang was speechless. When he had found herbs before, he thought they took up too much space in his backpack, so he always destroyed them right away.
“You see, I don’t want to either, but we can’t gather the materials.”
Yi sighed in relief.
“Well…” Winter Melon hesitantly raised his hand. “I actually have another bottle… but it’s in the Piggy Bank.”
“???”
“???”
Yelang and Yi looked at Winter Melon simultaneously.
“How many more bottles do you have?!” Yelang yelled, cursing.
“One, just one more, really, this is the last one.” Winter Melon summoned the Piggy Bank and took out the “last bottle” of Gender-Swap Potion.
“Which one of you two wants to drink it?”
Yi graciously ceded. “You go ahead and drink it first. You’ve been tormented for so long, you must really want to change back, right?”
“Damn it!” Yelang was torn between choices. He asked Winter Melon again, “Really, really, the last one?”
“Think it over before you answer! Otherwise, today is the day our friendship ends!”
Yelang’s tone was fierce, but Winter Melon shook his head. “It really is the last one.”
“Aaaaaaah~”
After a long bout of madness, Yelang eventually gave up the temptation to change back to being a man immediately. With a resigned look, he handed the potion to Yi.
“Drink up! Good brothers share weal and woe together!”
With no other choice, Yi reluctantly took the potion, and after a long mental struggle, he finally downed it in one gulp.
Next up was the familiar “Magical Girl Transformation” segment.
When the glow faded, a female version of Yi appeared on the scene.
Yelang raised his hand, “Are you ready?”
“Not yet, just wait a moment.” Yi tried to stall for time.
But Yelang had already reached out to touch him without any hesitation.
Taken aback by the sudden assault, Yi was clearly not one to suffer without fighting back — he touched Yelang right back!
Watching the two beauties touching each other back and forth, the live broadcast room exploded in excitement:
“We can watch this without paying anything?!”
“I know these are two men, but it’s still so tantalizing!”
“Oh my god, I’m going to make potions right now! I’m going to make my good brothers drink them!”
…
The two main characters also felt extremely weird, but they stubbornly refused to back down first, as if whoever gave up first would lose.
Of course, such a scene was clearly not harmonious. Yi soon received a sanction, and a prominent red warning floated across the live streaming room —
[Warning]: The current broadcast content contains borderline content and adverse influence. Please stop immediately.
Of course, the audiences definitely did not agree:
“How is this borderline? Two grown men touching each other’s chests, what’s the problem?”
“Exactly, this is an adult-level game, can’t adults watch something stimulating?”
“Let’s all go to Cloud Dream for live broadcasts from now on, they won’t issue warnings there.”
…
Unfortunately, the audience’s complaints did not matter. After seeing the warning, Yi immediately gave in and withdrew his hand.
The two girls stopped, their cheeks flushed, and they felt a bit uneasy.
Meanwhile, Winter Melon looked at the intimate interaction between the two beauties with envy, and felt that if this happened in reality, his nosebleed would surely burst out.
“Alright, enough. Let’s go find the medicinal herbs and get back to normal quickly.” Yelang changed the subject. “It feels so dangerous. If we use it too much, something big might happen!”
“Yeah, it’s really terrifying.” Yi echoed repeatedly.
But right when they were about to set off, Winter Melon hesitated and raised his hand again. “Actually, you don’t need to go search for it…”
“???”
Yelang stared at her face and said: “If you still have potions, I will break off our friendship for real!”
“No, no, I don’t have any more of those.” Winter Melon hurriedly shook her head in denial.
But after her denial, she changed her tone and said, “But I do have medicinal herbs, just enough to make one more bottle…”
“…” Yelang was completely speechless.
He felt like he was being played by the room administrator today…
A moment of silence later, he asked humbly, “Can you please, Miss Winter Melon, be kindhearted enough to craft the concoction from the herbs and give it to me?”
“Yes, yes, of course.” Winter Melon didn’t dare tease him any longer and quickly concocted one more Gender-Swap Potion and handed it to Yelang.
Yelang swiftly drank it, and after a burst of special effects, he finally returned to his male form, then quickly logged off as if running for his life.
The three teammates found themselves kicked out of the game map, returning to their virtual houses, feeling bewildered for a moment before realizing what had just happened.
Checking Yelang’s livestream again, they saw that it had gone black.
The tens of millions of viewers in the live broadcast room spread the Potion of Gender Swap’s recipe and effects throughout the Internet wave, bringing this news to players worldwide, and even ordinary netizens.
Next, there were bound to be many people who would either be tricked by their friends or want to try it out for themselves…
Female Yi gritted his teeth, dwelling on this mistake.
He wanted to end the broadcast and go look for the materials to make the potion himself, rather than losing face in front of millions of viewers.
In his previous expectations, the worst-case scenario would be to find materials with Yelang and at least have someone to share the burden.
However, he never expected it to turn into his solo show in the end!
On the other hand, Winter Melon logged into her game map, took out several medicinal herbs from the chest, crafted a Potion of Gender Swap, drank it, and returned to her normal self.
— She hadn’t lied earlier when she said her backpack was empty.
However, she still had plenty of materials at home…
