1038 The Opening Story of 'Fitness Battle'

May 16th, Wednesday…

Binhu District.

Qiao Liang was fighting alongside a few fans in GOG.

"Kill, kill, kill! The opposing Mage doesn't have any ults!"

"No ult, no ult, can be killed!"

"Er… there's no more ults now."

"The opposing Mage doesn't have any more powerful moves now. Can anyone still deal damage?"

A teammate's sarcastic voice came from the team's voice chat. "Old Qiao, which side are you on? Don't lie about military intelligence! Just tell me if there is an ult or not!"

Qiao Liang had been caught by accident and died first in the team battle just now. His teammates had rushed over and he shouted that the opposing mage did not have any ult. Thus, everyone had decided to fight four against five. In the end, the opposing mage had used a perfect ult move. His teammates had also swarmed over and wiped them out.

Qiao Liang was a little embarrassed as he said, "I'm sorry, everyone. I'm old and my memory is failing. I remember that the mage just released a big move. How did he recover so quickly?"

"Alright, that's it for today. I need to rest."

Qiao Liang exited the team, took off his earphones, and stretched.

More than a day had passed since the official start of the 515 Games Festival yesterday morning.

Qiao Liang had been working very hard recently.

He would be able to obtain a gift bag every day with his friends in Tengda's online game. There was a chance that he would be able to obtain rare items in the game. He would also be able to obtain a random red packet after an hour in the game…

In summary, players were in charge of playing the game while Tengda was in charge of scattering coins!

Qiao Liang might think that he was a hardcore gamer, but he could not possibly buy all of the epic weapons in Ocean Stronghold. GOG did not have all the skins either. What's more, there were cash and red packets in the rewards.

It was just a side benefit even though these rewards were not much to Qiao Liang.

In any case, he played games normally. He was just playing for a while longer now that there was such a generous reward for playing games. Why not?

Of course, apart from playing games, Qiao Liang was also paying attention to the money-burning war between Tengda Corporation and Finger Games.

From the current situation, it could be said that Tengda Corporation had completely crushed them!

Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation had also introduced a series of preferential measures, and players had thought that it was quite good at the beginning but it paled in comparison to Boss Pei's huge spending!

After all, one was a preferential treatment while the other was a pure gift. There was a fundamental difference.

After the detailed rules of the 515 Games Day were exposed, gamers immediately entered a state of revelry. Those gamers who only played IOI and did not play GOG were once again envious of GOG's gamers.

After all, even though IOI's skin was discounted, they still had to pay for it. On the other hand, GOG would be crazily giving it away when gaming!

Who would win this money-burning war?

Most players had not considered this problem at all.

Of course, it was Boss Pei.

That was because Boss Pei seemed to have never lost in such matters. Players trusted him 100%.

It would be hard to say if it was anything else. However, Tengda had never been afraid of anyone when it came to burning money.

It was not that Tengda was rich, but that it was bold.

What's more, the gamers did not care about whether the game company would burn money or not. It was good as long as everyone could obtain tangible benefits. The more money the two companies burned, the happier the gamers would be.

Qiao Liang was a little tired from playing the game just now. He stretched and decided to take a break. He opened his fan group and secretly read what everyone was discussing.

"Eh? Shang Yang Games has a new game!"

"A new game? Are you serious? I didn't hear any publicity before?"

"It's absolutely true. This game is called 'Fitness Battle'. It's a mobile game. It has been uploaded onto many platforms. You can find it after searching!"

Qiao Liang was stunned when he saw the discussion in the group.

New game?

Tengda did not seem to have promoted any new games recently.

However, these people in the group sent screenshots as they discussed.

This game, called Fitness Battle, was indeed Shang Yang Games' work!

From the name, it seemed like a fitness game. That was why many people in the group were slightly disappointed.

What was so fun about that?

In most people's imaginations, Fitness Battle should be a game similar to fitness simulators or traditional games with fitness packaging, so they were not interested.

After all, this was the only game in the market that could barely be compared to fitness.

If he had the time to play such games, he might as well get a membership from Deposit Fitness.

After all, if he were to apply for a membership card at Deposit Fitness, he would be able to slim down as long as he persevered. However, would he be able to lose weight if he played this game? He would still be at home. The more he stayed at home, the fatter he would become.

Everyone's confusion was normal.

That was because their first reaction did not link this game called 'Fitness Battle' to the game announced at the smart fitness drying rack!

That was because the game's name was not mentioned at the news conference, and the promotional page for Fitness Battle did not mention the smart fitness drying rack.

There were not many gamers who paid attention to the smart fitness drying rack. What's more, most of them did not look forward to the game that the smart fitness drying rack was to be paired with. That was why many people did not think about it when they saw the game.

They had chosen to download it because of Tengda's reputation.

Of course, Qiao Liang would not let it go.

Its capacity was not small even though it was a mobile game. Qiao Liang guessed that the game might be rich in content.

What's more, Tengda's games were all top-quality. When did Tengda fool people?

Qiao Liang immediately downloaded the game on his tablet and entered to take a look with such expectations.

…

After a short black screen, the game's opening CG appeared on the screen.

The style of CG was more inclined towards the cartoon style of the two-dimensional world. The characteristics of the characters were very obvious.

The scene at that moment seemed to be the remains of an ancient building. The sky was already dark. There was no moon or starlight. There were only a few dim oil lamps standing on the dilapidated walls of the ancient building ruins, adding a sinister atmosphere to the entire scene.

Eight people sat cross-legged in a circle in the ruins. Under them was a huge magic circle that was emitting a strange red light. They were all connected together, flickering slowly like a pulse.

He could roughly see the faces of these eight people as the camera panned across.

On the whole, it was a character in the style of a two-dimensional cartoon. There was a cute girl, an attractive older sister, a petite loli, and a cute boy…

These characters had obviously been meticulously designed. Their appearance was very in line with the aesthetics of 2D players. Their hairstyles, hair color, and clothing details were all very in line with the character characteristics.

These people were wearing different clothes that matched the character's persona. However, all of their clothes were in the style of sportswear.

The strangest thing was that these people did not seem to have perfect figures.

For example, the older sister character. She was obviously curvy enough to induce a nosebleed, but it was obvious that she had a small belly. Moreover, there seemed to be some excess fat on her arms and thighs. It did not look tight enough.

The other characters had their own problems, but they were not obvious.

At that moment, all eight of them had their eyes tightly shut and their brows tightly furrowed. They even swallowed their saliva from time to time, as though they were enduring terrifying pain.

In front of them, in the inner circle of the magic circle, there were eight extended branches, each with a type of food.

Braised pork, fried chicken, milk tea, kebabs…

It looked very tempting.

The food constantly emitted a fragrance that stimulated the eight people's sense of smell. The eight of them seemed to be swallowing their saliva faster and faster.

There were already people who could not hold it in anymore. They tried their best to control their hands so that they would not reach out to the food in front of them.

At that moment, a dignified voice-over sounded. "Hold on, the ceremony is about to succeed!"

"As long as you persevere and endure hunger, you will eventually defeat the terrifying fat demon!"

However, right after that, a sly and bewitching voice-over sounded. "It's alright. It's alright to eat a little occasionally!"

"You've already worked so hard. Shouldn't you eat a little to replenish your energy and reward yourselves?"

"What's the point of living when you can't even eat as you please?"

"Just a small bite. It's alright!"

These two voices hovered around everyone and constantly influenced them.

Finally, these people's willpower reached the brink of collapse.

"I can't take it anymore. I'm starving. Just one bite!"

Someone pounced on the food in front of them.

After the sound of people eating heartily sounded, everyone's psychological defense collapsed instantly. All of them pounced on the delicacies in front of them and stuffed them into their mouths without any care.

"Hahahahahaha…"

A burst of insolent laughter was heard, and layers of black smoke suddenly rose from the bottom of the magic formation, turning into a bloated and huge demon.

"Poor humans. Your willpower is so weak. How can you seal me with such tricks?"

"Then, take these as gifts. I'll give them to you!"

The huge fat demon waved his hand and countless bubble-shaped light balls floated out from his body and fused into the eight people.

Immediately after, the figures of these eight people swelled visibly!

At first, they were only slightly out of shape. However, it was not particularly obvious if one did not look closely. However, one could clearly see that they were obese now.

The eight of them were in different situations. Some of them only had fat on certain parts of their bodies, while others had gained twice as much weight. Their originally good looks were on the verge of collapse.

With a burst of maniacal laughter, the magic circle completely dimmed. The fat demon also swept up a wave of black smoke and flew away.

The eight of them fell to the ground, the food in their hands falling to the ground.

"It's over, we failed!"

"We still can't resist the temptation of delicacies. The fat demon ran away, and we were parasitized by his fat avatar. We can't control this magic formation anymore!"

Everyone looked defeated. Two female characters even lowered their heads and sobbed.

However, very quickly, a slightly plump but very bright girl stood up. "No, we can't give up just like that!"

"The fat demon will continue to bewitch humans and use the fat avatar to parasitize them. Finally, it will become everyone's host. Our lifespan will be greatly reduced!"

"Our willpower is not strong enough, and our bodies are not strong enough."

"However, as long as we train hard, we will still have a chance to drive away the fat demon avatars that parasitize our bodies and seal the fat demon again!"
