Translated by: La0o9

Gu Qing Shan left his original world .
Ten seconds later .
The world alliance army’s command center .
Impartial Goddess brought the few words Gu Qing Shan left behind to this place .
Zhang Ying Hao, Ye Fei Li, Liao Xing, the Confederate President, Monarch Varona and Martial Saint Zhang Zong Yang all gathered .
They stared at the screen and fell into thought .
The thing written on the screen was outside of their imagination .
You could even say that it had no relations to the current situation at all .
Only a single line of text written on the screen .
[The King of Fighters, final boss]
No one could believe this was supposed to be the countermeasure Gu Qing Shan had left them .
[According to Impartial Goddess’ guess, these words were left to Ye Fei Li] Zhang Ying Hao said .
Ye Fei Li stood in front of the screen and said nothing .
It seems he was thinking about something deeply .
“Fei Li, what are these words supposed to mean?” Zhang Zong Yang couldn’t help but ask .
Ye Fei Li didn’t reply .
Liao Xing explained: “The King of Fighters was an extremely famous game, haven’t any of you tried it?”
Zhang Zong Yang shook his head .
He looked at the others .
“How would I know, I’ve never touched these boring games” Monarch Varona said .

“The last time I played these things was probably when I was in college” the President also said .
For now, no one said anything and tried to wrack their brains thinking .
The room fell silent .
While everyone kept silent, Ye Fei Li suddenly let out a deep sigh .
Everyone turned to him with expectant looks .
“Did you understand what Gu Qing Shan meant?” Zhang Ying Hao asked .
“I realized something else, also something very important”
Ye Fei Li solemnly told everyone .
Something else?
Everyone was surprised .
The most important thing right now is to decode these words, why is this brat thinking about other things?
“What do you mean?” Zhang Ying Hao asked .
“I don’t know if you’ve noticed this as well-----”
Ye Fei Li cleared his throat and very seriously spoke: “Truthfully, sometimes I feel like life is like a movie”
Everyone went blank as they heard him .
What is this guy talking about?
“Life is like a movie? Can’t you say it a bit clearer?” Liao Xing wasn’t too sure .
“It’s like, what I meant is that sometimes I feel like I’m living in a film”
“What is that supposed to mean?”
“It could be a film, or a TV drama, or novel, something of the same sort . Basically, I feel that life is unreal, and we’re like actors within this film”
Everyone blinked at his words .
Living in a film?

Are you already going insane!?
Liao Xing on the other hand, started to think deeply about it: “It’s because you feel that way that you could get into character so much when you portray the Murder Clown”
Zhang Ying Hao also looked at Ye Fei Li with praise: “This is probably your natural talent, the natural-born feeling of being in a movie”
Ye Fei Li made a solemn expression and spoke in a low voice: “But from today onwards, I won’t be able to think of this as a film, a TV drama or even a novel anymore”
“Why not?”
Liao Xing couldn’t help but ask .
Ye Fei Li smiled looking at him .
“Because there’s no such thing as a movie where the savior goes missing right at the moment of the world’s destruction”
Ye Fei Li spoke seriously: “A savior has to be present to save the world, this is an iron-clad rule from ages long ago”
Everyone was stunned .
“But Gu Qing Shan just ran away” Liao Xing clasped his hands and said .
“That’s right, so he isn’t the savior, and this isn’t a movie about him” Ye Fei Li spoke without any doubt .
“What a good deduction! I like your conclusion”
Liao Xing excitedly fist bumped Ye Fei Li .
Everyone watching fell silent and said nothing .
Ok, so we actually had two crazy people here!
They silently retorted in their minds .
“Fine, if you the two of you are really so great, tell me what these words mean” Zhang Ying Hao pointed at the screen .
The words Gu Qing Shan left were still sitting on the screen .
[The King of Fighters, final boss]
Zhang Ying Hao spoke: “Gu Qing Shan seems to be implying to us that the secret to defeat the Demis and Wraiths lies at this final boss”
The King of Fighters was a world-renowned game .
The final boss was the most powerful enemy that players would run into at the very end of the game .

Everyone exchanged looks .
No one really knew why Gu Qing Shan would leave a message that mentioned such a game .
Liao Xing crossed his arms: “I played the game, but I couldn’t win . I would always lose to the final boss”
“I already cleared it, and I also had a secret method to manipulate the game” Ye Fei Li said .
“You changed the game difficulty?” Liao Xing asked .
“No, changing the difficulty is no fun, I directly selected the final boss and used him as my character” Ye Fei Li said .
“There’s a way to do that? Tell me how I can do it! Is it ‘Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A’?” Liao Xing’s eyes lit up .
“It’s not” Ye Fei Li shook his head: “And it’s useless to tell you, only Platinum players on the KoF 20th anniversary were eligible to apply for the code”
“You’re a Platinum player?” Liao Xing was surprised, “only someone who got all the in game achievements could be considered Platinum!”
Ye Fei Li had a prideful look on his face: “I’m not just Platinum, before the apocalypse, I used to be rank 7 on the world leaderboard . And now, I’m rank number 1”
He puffed out his chest, waiting for the looks of admiration from everyone .
Unfortunately, most of the people here didn't find that a thing to be proud of at all .
Zhang Ying Hao asked: “Does Gu Qing Shan know about this?”
“Of course”
“Is he also a high-ranked player?”
“No, he said that back then, he didn’t even have the money to buy the normal version of the game, so he was jealous of me for that”
Zhang Ying Hao and Liao Xing exchanged looks .
Liao Xing said: “Then list out that character’s abilities now so that everyone can study it”
“No need” Ye Fei Li said .
He glanced back at the words on the screen and muttered: “These words of his were really left for me”
He stood there, shaking a bit .
“I probably know what he meant, no, I’m sure I know what he meant”
He mumbled in a low voice .
“You know what he meant?” everyone spoke in unison .
Ye Fei Li licked his lips and spoke excitedly: “That’s right, I’m the Clown, I beat the Game of the Eternal, so I’m the final boss”
Ye Fei Li gestured to the screen .
Impartial Goddess spoke: [Mr . Ye Fei Li, the Mech armor is prepared, are you ready for take off?]
“I already can’t wait”
[Understood] Impartial Goddess said .
With the sound of mechanical movements, a chilling full-body armor raised from the ground .
It was a Mobile Mech about 2-meters tall .
It was jet black, giving off a chilling cold gleam from its thin and compact body frame .
The strangest part about this Mech was its helmet .
Thanks to this helmet, the armor gave off an inexplicable eerie feeling .
------its eyes were blank, its expression was stiff, the nose as thin and long almost like a beak, its mouth curved to form a stiff smile .
At a glance, it seemed like it was trying to flatter somebody, but taking a closer look, you’d find that it wasn’t smiling at all . Instead it was the despaired frenzy look of a man who saw something terrifying .
Ye Fei Li walked forward, placing his hand on the Mech .
Blue lines of light expanded from where his hand touched .
[Personal brain waves confirmed]
[Begin equipping]
The Mech split up into parts and quickly reassembled itself onto Ye Fei Li’s body piece by piece .
Ye Fei Li was no longer here .
Instead, the Murder Clown appeared in front of everyone .
[Ahh~ it has been so long, but I’m finally back in the game]
The Murder Clown declared so with a rumbling low voice .
