In fact, the cultivators didn’t fear the strength of demons but rather the unknown.
In the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, they could experience Li Xiaoyao’s near-immortal power in person. Now in Devil May Cry 3, they could experience the power of demon bloodline, which was something that they had never imagined before.
While they played the game and watched Mr. Fang play the game, they gradually understood Dante’s personality. Dante was optimistic, had a good sense of humor, remained calm before crises, and had his own principles; he was more like a human even after he had awakened his demonic power.
However, his twin brother was more like a cold demon who was proud, admired power, and would do anything to achieve his goals.
However, different from the cultivators of the major factions in the Morning Star Sea Realm and the cultivators and warriors of Dajin, the local players in Half City liked Vergil more.
His disregard for trivialities to achieve his ambitious goal, aristocratic temperament, and great power enthralled them. Of course, his slight short-sightedness due to the crazy pursuit for power wasn’t that negative in the grand scheme of things.
Meanwhile, the two cultivation worlds had begun studying the weapons in Devil May Cry 3.
Dante had five close-range weapons. Besides the sword ‘Rebellion’, the other four were the loot he got after subduing or defeating powerful demons.
For example, in front of Dante, there was Nevan, a vampire witch who had red, wave-like hair and wore a black long dress.
Devil May Cry 3 had a totally different focus from other games. The Legend of the Sword and Fairy focused on fate and love; Diablo 2 focused on the fun of combining items with various properties with techniques; Grand Theft Auto 5 focused on a novel lifestyle; Devil May Cry 3 focused on combat.
Yes, combat.
While Grand Theft Auto 5 satisfied the needs of most of the chill and relaxed players, Devil May Cry 3 satisfied the needs of the avid fighters.
The vampire witch before Dante didn’t only have the traditional vampirical ability of transforming into a bat, but she could also summon powerful bats as shields. More importantly, she could control lightning.
Obviously, Mr. Fang got even better at playing the game, and he gave the audience a visual feast.
The witch’s powerful and swift attacks of bat shadows were almost all blocked by Dante with Royalguard.
Then, the bat witch summoned frighteningly powerful lightning currents which swept all over the room.
With clinking explosions, Dante remained intact while the attacks of this witch were so fast that everything became blurry, and his demonic energy continued to grow.
In the booming lightning flashes, Dante remained still and firm like a mountain, which showed the audience his frightening strength again.
As the combat styles leveled up, they would reveal even greater power, including styles such as Gunslinger and Swordmaster
But clearly, the Royalguard Style tested the players’ control of timing more than others.
Fang Qi had accumulated a lot of battle experience in the various cultivation rooms and became more familiar with the combat styles through constant fighting. Besides, he had played the original version of the game and thus knew most of his enemies’ attack styles and methods. For example, he perfectly knew how to deal with the witch’s sucking of HP.
His control of Dante had perfect timing, and the audience held their breaths while watching the fascinating battle. In fact, everything was so proper that people felt like it was Fang Qi fighting the monsters personally.
Maybe, it could no longer be called a battle, but an enthralling symphony of sounds of lightning and winds created by the sword. For Dante, perhaps it was only a beautiful dance party under the moon.
On the screen, the white light and red light mingled and exploded!
The demonic power under Demon Trigger was instantly unleashed. Together with the power of the Release, all the charged demonic energy was directed forward like an erupting volcano!
Demonic energy surged up like a turbulent flood, and the audience saw red and white light exploding on the screen!
Immediately, the red light shrank, and the exploded demonic energy was withdrawn after appearing for only one moment; the Demon Trigger was stopped.
The bat witch was now already lying on the ground.
The audience was silent.
After a long while, they finally found their voices and shouted, “What was that play?!”
“It was Release while Demon Trigger is activated.” Mr. Fang waved his hand calmly. On the screen, the bat witch had become a dark-purple electric guitar in Dante’s hands, and he played a piece of heart-throbbing electric guitar rock-and-roll music!
The rock-and-roll music wasn’t something that the cultivators and warriors could accept; it was way too modern.
However, a large group of them had heard many songs such as Glorious Times and Vast Ocean and Open Sky in Mr. Fang’s Qzone while playing the King of Fighters; they had gotten used to this kind of music.
“Awesome!”
“So thrilling!” Exclamations came one after another from behind.
“…”
Obviously, it was another powerful weapon.
Despite their great powers, these weapons couldn’t be copied since each of them was a powerful demon; the most that they could achieve was a mimic version.
At this moment, the demon bundled in the quilt found that the cultivators around it were looking at it with a weird look.
It seemed like they were looking at this demon as if they had just discovered a new continent!
“???” It was just looking at the screen on which Dante was playing his newly-acquired electric guitar, and it suddenly shivered. “Why are you staring at me?!”
“Do you think this one can be transformed into a weapon?” Yue Yan whispered.
“I think so,” Mo Xian whispered back, “Aren’t they the same kind?”
“What weapon do you think this one can transform into?”
They continued the discussion in low voices.
The demon shivered.
Mr. Fang explained, “This is a teleportation array, not a weapon.”
The demon said, “Right! Right! I’m a teleport…”
He paused while he was speaking, feeling like something wasn’t right.
“I say, Old Demon, do you have a relative or something?” Ning Bi suddenly giggled with a strange light flashing in her bright green eyes as if she had just discovered a gold mountain.
“No! I have none!” It almost stomped its foot even though it was a cloud now
