The Rise of Otaku

Chapter 172 the first fight

Edited by Esperanza

At night, outside the palatial castle illuminated by various lights, a group of photographers was fighting with mosquitoes. They were told to guard every exit in order to capture the photo of the mysterious singer Muli, who appeared in the castle that night.

However, although they had stayed up the whole night, the party was long over, the lights had all gone out, and the gatekeeper had also already locked the gate, they still didn’t see any suspicious people. There were no cars on the scene, and everyone was picked up by the horse-drawn carriages. It was as if Muli had disappeared inside the dark castle.

After confirming with his men several times, Mu Zi could only admit that the mission of capturing the photo of Muli had failed. But it was not without any harvest, just the live singing in the ceremony alone, it was already enough to gather a round of fame online. After all, Muli was extremely popular, it would be a shame if they didn’t freeload some fame. The agreement with Zhou Yu was just that they couldn’t disturb him, and also film him, so if they use Muli to create some news, it was still not breaching the contract.

The video of the graduation ceremony was quickly uploaded onto the Internet. With such a high standard graduation ceremony, coupled with the professional filming crew, it made the entire video look like some high budget movie. Those, who didn’t know what happened, all thought that it was some expensive private school’s graduation ceremony.

However, this was not important, the important thing was that Muli appeared in this ceremony.

That rich man was truly despicable. It was just a primary school graduation ceremony. However, he was able to invite Little Muli, this popular singer!

This was simply inhuman.

Suddenly, the number of visitors coming to the amusement park soared. Originally, it was already the beginning of the summer vacation, and there were several stars currently still shooting the tv program in the park, so the increase in visitors was predictable. But with the sudden appearance of so many visitors, it still surprised Zhou Fu a little bit.

Uploading the video of the ceremony was actually the idea of Zhou Fu. Such a good place, how could they not use it. Soon after the video was released online, people, who wanted to reserve the place flooded in non-stop. There were marriage ceremonies, birthday parties, etc, although the cost of reserving the site was a little bit expensive, if the event could be arranged like the one that was shown on the video, it would still be worth it.

Today, a couple got married here. They were led by a luxurious carriage, all the way to the wedding site with the blessing of many tourists. With a symphony orchestra playing in the background, and flowers in their hands, the couple walked through the Tree Of Eternity and drank the Water Of Good Marriage. It was as romantic as it could get.

Now Zhou Yu finally knew why Zhou Fu stressed to get a few more festive attractions sites around the castle, they were all used to make money.

The fantasy city project had just started, being so popular at the beginning was very normal, but Zhou Yu rarely went inside at the moment. He wanted to wait until the TV crew left and then play inside.

Now what made Zhou Yu feel headaches, was Xia Huan. He had hoped that Xia Huan would find a script about the underworld, then he would be able to use the excuse of making an animated film to build an underground world, so he could explore the underworld of the ACG world. However, up until now, he still had not found any relevant script, it seemed that a good script was also very scarce in the ACG world.

Originally, the shooting was scheduled during the summer vacation, but now there was nothing he could do, so he could only take Little Rat to play in the water in The Billow Sound Pavilion, and accompanied them through the last summer of primary school that way.

“Brother Yu, I am about to go to the city to study, can I come back to play with you in the future?”

Little Rat did not like to study in the city, because in that way he could not play with Brother Yu often. He would also miss out on a lot of fun activities and movies.

“Of course, when you come back in the next summer vacation and the next winter vacation, we will have more interesting things to do. Feel free to play them anything at that time.”

Although the cost of the small amusement park was still large, the revenue was gradually increasing, it seemed that it was about to reach the break-even point. If it continued like this, it would operate even without investing in more money. So it was not difficult for Zhou Yu to build more projects.

Little Rat was delighted to hear it. After all, he was still a child and a child would always be distracted when they heard something fun and interesting, so the sadness soon disappeared.

This boy was very clever. And his otaku power was also growing the fastest amongst all the children. He really had a lot of potentials. His otaku power was currently at 4, and he belonged to a kind of healthy otaku. He had a high interest in animation production, so he may be able to become a good animator in the future.

However, Zhou Yu was not able to teach him the way he made animated films. Only when he learned how to make animations in the real world, could he get on the right track in the future. Of course, this was just an expectation, maybe in the future, because of some unexpected things, Zhou Hao would lose interest in animation, and develop some other interests.

Either way, this was someone else’s life.

Little Muli was naturally in the amusement park, but no one would be able to find her. That night, she just used the stage megaphone of the midnight troupe’s theater to sing songs to children. After that, she just came out of the fantasy city in front of Mu Zi and his crew, but still, no one noticed her.

Those, who were determined that little muli was in the amusement park, had used everything they had, but they still could not find her, in the end, they started to target Zhou Yu.

Why was he able to ask Muli to come to a small graduation ceremony. What was the relationship between these two people?

Imagination was a very scary thing. After a variety of ‘speculations’ of some extreme fans and nosy people, a rumor about Muli being trapped by Zhou Yu, began to spread online. The reason why she could not appear in public was that Zhou Yu wanted to enjoy her alone!

If Zhou Yu knew this rumor existed, he would definitely want to catch the guy, who spread the rumor and kick his ass.

However, some people really believed it. For example, today, unexpectedly, an ordinary little otaku, whose otaku power was about 5, and did not have any other special ability, charged at Zhou Yu with a stick in The Billow Sound Pavilion, while shouting, “Muli I’ve come to save you!”

Hearing this kind of shout, Zhou Yu mistakenly thought that it was the extreme fan from the ACG world, so he naturally dodged the attack, grabbed the stick, and then skillfully ‘KO’d the extreme fan.

This was the natural reaction after being beaten up by Bubu so many times, plus with the brain energy helping him learn, Zhou Yu’s combat skills increased significantly. But he’s never used it on the people from the real world before.

So in the next second, Zhou Yu was stunned, because after he KO’d the man, he could tell that it was a man from the real world. In other words, this was the first time in his life that he had actually fought with someone using a close combat move.

In the past, it was almost impossible to imagine that he would do such a thing.

Zhou Yu was slightly nervous, looking at his hand, he could not believe that he had actually hit someone, although it was self-defense. In the past, the first reaction he had when he saw that someone was charging at him, would be to run away, rather than have the courage to confront them.

Did martial arts change his mind, or did he gain the courage after fighting with the fallen knight?
