Chapter 505: Chapter 167: Pressure Maxed Out! Drenched in Sweat! How Am I Unable to Catch Even One of Your Exclusive Games?_7

Many people already looked visibly tired, and sluggishness was creeping up on them.

Logically speaking, it was either time to wrap up the event,

or to introduce one last, somewhat mediocre game as the finale.

Having seen the previous games, the players’ expectations were maxed out.

They would naturally be more forgiving of this last, ordinary title.

This angle had actually been used many times during commercial product launches.

Wave after wave of emotional impact on the players, followed by a placebo, seamlessly and unnoticed, mixing a mediocre product into the lineup.

Hattori Hiroshi was out of luck,

because he had invited the Mold God.

The style of Number One Player company was to save the best for last.

To hit the players with a big one!

What is fatigue? What is drowsiness?

No sleeping allowed, everyone get up and party!

"Snap!"

"Crack!"

"Creak!"

One by one, the stage lights went out.

Even the big screen that had been brightly lit for nearly two hours finally got to rest at this moment.

The entire event venue plunged into complete darkness.

"Eh?"

"What’s happening?"

"Is there a power outage?"

As murmurs started rippling through the audience,

a voice with a hint of hoarseness and humor cut through, instantly silencing the chatter!

"Super Mario: Odyssey~~"

As a red cap emblazoned with the letter ’M’ flew across the sky.

Causing countless audience members, both at the venue and watching the live stream, to widen their eyes in disbelief.

It was no longer presented through the big screen!

This red baseball cap flew right over the heads of the audience!

3D holographic technology!

Although it wasn’t rare in other fields, it was the first time ever being used in a game launch!

This kind of lifelike perception blew up the live stream chat. Countless comments flooded in!

"Huh???"

"Holy sh*t!!!"

"There’s more??"

"Good, good, good! Saving the trump card for last, huh!"

The hat made its way down the long aisle to the very front of the audience, then ’pop’—it disappeared.

Immediately after, the promotional video for Super Mario: Odyssey officially began!

Presented directly before the eyes of the live audience with 3D holographic technology.

A modern cityscape, mirage-like, began to project inside the arena.

Some gamers even rubbed their eyes as if they were dreaming.

Looking again, the red carpet that originally covered the floor was now projected with the effect of an asphalt road.

The steel and concrete-built bustling metropolis slowly revealed its full view as the camera gently moved.

This immersive experience made all the gamers at the venue boil over with excitement!

They burst out with the loudest applause of the entire event!

Soon after,

a manhole cover on the street began to move.

A short, stocky man in plumber’s overalls with a large nose and a distinctive Mustache Hu leaped out of the pipe!

His appearance made many players glance sideways, curiously looking down at their feet.

He too was curiously observing the players.

But in reality, he was just looking around at the bustling city filled with modern buildings.

Moving with Agility, he crossed the road with a swift gait and, defying reality, leapt up to land on the hood of a taxi.

The good elasticity allowed him to jump even higher, flipping in mid-air, perfectly hitting a uniquely shaped traffic light box above his head.

"Ding!" Along with a crisp and pleasant sound, a Gold Coin popped out.

Somehow, it also lightened the mood of everyone in the venue.

As the holographic projection shifted the view,

It showcased the gameplay.

The short-statured plumber reached the base of two adjacent skyscrapers. With light steps, he rapidly climbed the walls and hopped back and forth, continuously repeating this process until he swiftly reached the top of the skyscrapers.

Soon after, all players noticed,

a hat-shaped airship was waiting for a long time on the rooftop helipad of the building.

Apparently, no one questioned why the short man was so agile, or why an airship could be stationed at the top of a skyscraper.

The immersive power of holographic projection, coupled with the fairy-tale-like style of the game,

seemed to pull the players into a fantastical fairy tale.

In that moment, they were all children flipping through the pages of a story.

Fairy tales are sugary desserts, fantastical and inocently brilliant.

And the Mustache Hu, who boarded the hat-shaped airship and flew toward the distance, also turned the page of the players’ fairy tale story.

In the contents of this page,

he arrived at a land with golden sand.

He bounced off umbrellas to the rooftops of other people’s homes, collecting special items scattered across the kingdom.

The next moment, he was riding a lion, dashing through the endless desert, kicking up clouds of sand.

Arriving under the giant inverted pyramid, looking up with all the gamers at that magnificent sight.

In the forest, he sometimes ran along aerial bridges made of flowers,

sometimes rolling and sprinting down the green ridges following the Note Trail.

In the snowy realm, a race across the ice fields.
