After the girls finished watching the animated short, Mo Li slowly spoke, “How did you feel?”
Youlan Daier was the first to speak, “I have to say, it was incredibly well done…”
“Boss, which studio did you hire to make this short? If domestic studios have this level of skill, there’s no way Chinese animation would be so bad.”
Bronya nodded in agreement, “I think the music was also amazing. The impact of the video, the music deserves three-tenths of the credit!”
After experiencing the 1.1 version content immersively, the girls’ admiration for Mo Li grew even stronger.
When Bronya looked at Mo Li, although she still had her usual blank face, if you looked closely, her eyes seemed to be shining.
Rita also sighed softly in her charming voice, “Boss, I admire you more and more~”
Mo Li: “…”
Being stared at by so many beautiful girls, even Mo Li, with his calm demeanor, felt a little uncomfortable.
“Alright, alright, stop flattering me.”
“After testing for so long, you should believe me now, right? There will definitely be no bugs in this game. So, don’t mention the internal testing anymore.”
“Also, the music in this short isn’t actually complete yet.”
“Hm? Not complete yet?”
Mo Li nodded lightly, “I still have a song here, one that matches the ‘Queen’s Arrival’ animated short, that can make the visuals even more impactful.”
“So… any of you have vocal skills? You know, the kind with a bit of singing talent?”
Actually, the system had already provided Mo Li with the game’s voice acting, music, and short film.
The reason he still wanted to teach the girls voice acting, besides finding something for them to do, was also to give them a sense of participation.
If they were only responsible for game promotion and maintenance, they probably wouldn’t have much affection for this game.
But if they personally participated in voice acting, they would be more invested in this game.
To Mo Li’s surprise, not only could the girls voice act, but they were also quite good at singing.
Their voices were already at a professional voice actor level, only lacking some technical skills compared to professional singers.
But that wasn’t a problem. After a couple of days of training, Kiana perfectly mastered the song “Befall.”
…………
In this way, without internal testing, with the anticipation of 30 million players, *Honkai Impact 3rd* finally went live.
Zhang Ming, who had been eagerly awaiting this day, finally saw the game’s public release.
He even took a day off just to experience *Honkai Impact 3rd* as soon as possible.
The messages in his gaming friend group kept refreshing.
From the words of his friends, you could tell they were all very excited.
“Pre-load finished, account created, why isn’t miHoYo opening the door yet!!”
“miHoYo: Don’t rush, don’t rush, one minute left.”
“Hope this game doesn’t disappoint me.”
“Kiana… *Shashahasha*…”
“Didn’t Penguin also launch a mobile game? Aren’t you going to try it?”
“Heh, I can guess without trying, it’s just the same old routine from Penguin.”
“Bro, you can go to Penguin’s side first to test the waters, then come back and tell us all about the game.”
“Alright, brothers, wait for my message.”
……
At the same time, on Bilibili and Douyin, many streamers were opening their live streams at the very first moment.
Because Mo Li hadn’t invited any internal testers. And the only ones who had completely experienced *Honkai Impact 3rd* were the girls from the studio.
So, for the past half a month, there had been absolutely no leaks about *Honkai Impact 3rd* online.
Under these circumstances, the popularity of *Honkai Impact 3rd* should have gradually declined.
But Mo Li had been releasing videos related to *Honkai Impact 3rd* from time to time, and even boldly marked the time [XX days XX hours XX minutes remaining until public release]…
The result was that players couldn’t play the game, yet couldn’t get any insider information.
But every two days, a hot video about *Honkai Impact 3rd* would pop up, making the players itchy and miserable.
Apart from several combat videos of different characters, these videos didn’t reveal any other information, making those players very anxious.
Players only knew that the two Valkyries, “White Knight · Moonlight” and “Thunderbolt Queen’s Thunderous Roar,” were incredibly powerful.
“Wings deploy!” “Thunderbolt! Burst!” When the Valkyries shouted these lines, the gorgeous battle effects were simply dazzling.
White-haired loli, emotionless girl, white-haired girl, red-haired mature woman, elegant maid, Chinese flat…
In this game, you can find every type of beautiful girl you can imagine…
Even if you aren’t a fan of anime, you might be drawn in.
Many players, unable to play the game or get any leaks, started searching for *Honkai Impact 3rd* internal testing access.
Some wealthy players even offered 100,000 yuan just for a chance to participate in internal testing.
The news of 100,000 yuan for an account also pushed *Honkai Impact 3rd* onto Weibo’s hot search for a while, and it could be considered a successful breakout.
When Mo Li received this news, he was a little helpless and had to post a notice on the official account, stating that the team had no plans for internal testing.
No matter how much the players begged, Mo Li refused to open internal testing, just dangling them like bait.
The girls in the studio were all saying he was too bad…
Finally, *Honkai Impact 3rd* went live today, and the popularity that had been building for so long finally reached its peak.
Whether they were genuinely interested in the game or wanted to hop on the hype, most game streamers chose to stream *Honkai Impact 3rd*.
At this moment, a Bilibili UP主 with millions of fans, named Fairy Miss, also opened her live stream for the first time in a long while.
Although she had unparalleled beauty, most of her fans weren’t attracted by her appearance.
The reason she was so popular was mainly due to her cheerful, optimistic, innocent personality, and… her bizarre live stream content.
The only drawback might be that she streamed too rarely, hardly once a month…
But even so, every time she went live, the stream’s popularity would be incredibly lively.
The same was true today.
“Hi~ Did you miss me?”
In the camera, a pink-haired girl smiled sweetly, waving her delicate hand at the camera.
Her eyebrows were like crescent moons, her face like a blooming peony. Her laughter seemed to make her a human spirit, innocent and carefree.
Just a simple greeting, but it wiped away all gloom and brought joy to the heart.
So, it’s true that happiness is contagious. Seeing such a pure and lovely girl, the viewers in the live chat couldn’t help but smile.
Immediately, dense barrage comments covered the entire screen.
