"What the hell?"
"Not your business?"
"It's over! Even the expert can't explain it?!"
"Can any of you bros out there with some serious knowledge explain it? Even a scary explanation would do ʕ༼◕౪◕✿༽ʔ..."
"@MagicRevealer-Xiaoqiang, you've been studying this for so long, do you have any insights???"
...
Explain your ass!!
Brother Xiaoqiang quietly watched the livestream, choosing to ignore the frenzied mentions from netizens.
On the live broadcast, at Tokyo Odaiba, the atmosphere was still engulfed in a frenzy of screams and gasps.
"Ahhh! So spectacular!"
"What kind of magic is this? This is clearly sorcery!"
"He's not a magician, he's a god!!"
"The divine really exists!!"
Among the Japanese tourists, some extremely superstitious individuals actually knelt down and began to worship.
This scene was captured by a drone, and the domestic netizens in the livestream chat were utterly shocked, shouting 'Brother Ye is awesome!' one after another.
As the performance concluded, the ice sculpture in the sky transformed into specks of fluorescent light and descended.
Ryukawa Soko bowed politely to the roaring audience, her expression a mix of excitement, astonishment, confusion, and complexity as she then turned to look at Bai Ye.
She had witnessed the magic of Bai Ye's illusions at the small noodle shop with other customers, but she never imagined it could be so incredibly spectacular.
Could this truly be the legendary sorcery from Great Xia?
As she pondered the same question as everyone else, Bai Ye stood up, bowed gracefully to the audience by the shore, and then walked towards her with a hint of a mysterious smile.
"Miss Ryukawa, your dance was excellent!"
"Thank you!"
Ryukawa Soko bowed in thanks, her ample bosom swaying, which gave Bai Ye a brief moment of visual distraction.
"Bai Ye-kun~ Your magic... is it perhaps the legendary sorcery?"
Ryukawa Soko asked excitedly, trying to keep her voice low to avoid being heard by the noisy tourists on the shore. The tourists on the shore indeed couldn't hear their conversation, but... nearly 30 million viewers in the livestream chat could.
Seeing her daring to ask such a question on the spot, the audience and fans were thrilled!
"This Japanese girl has asked many questions that were stuck in my heart!"
"Brother Ye, let's just reveal it!"
"So magic is real, right?? (゜д゜)"
"Some magicians always perform magic under the guise of illusions..."
"Newton has already crawled out of his coffin!"
...
What a bunch of cute little guys!
Facing the familiar barrage of questioning from netizens, and the intense gaze from Ryukawa Soko before him, Bai Ye maintained a calm smile. He raised his hand and extended it towards her, saying,
"What sorcery or magic are there? This is just some simple illusions..."
Ryukawa Soko looked at him with doubt and voiced the thoughts of millions of netizens: "Is that so???"
Then, with a slight blush on her cheeks, she placed her hand in Bai Ye's. Bai Ye's hand felt warm and large...
"Yes! (＾_＾) Believe in science!"
Bai Ye replied with utmost certainty. As he spoke, he raised his other hand, and the familiar sound of a snap echoed. The large balls of fire that had been burning in the sky for a long time were all extinguished, plunging the bay into darkness.
(*￣︿￣) Is this what you call a simple illusion?
Believe in science???
In the livestream chat, netizens could only vaguely see the figures of Bai Ye and Ryukawa Soko.
"It's probably done using some specially made props filled with enough hydrogen gas, plus voice-activated switches."
"(o゜▽゜)o☆ Really?" Ryukawa Soko continued to gaze up at Bai Ye.
Livestream viewers: It's that simple???
"Of course, skillful manipulation is also required..."
As Bai Ye finished speaking, he casually waved his hand, and a flaming gate over three meters high appeared before them. The tourists on the shore, who were just starting to quiet down, immediately erupted in excitement again.
Then, they watched as Bai Ye, holding Ryukawa Soko, who looked astonished and a little scared, walked into the fiery gate.
And then, they vanished before everyone's eyes!
"(」゜ロ゜)」They vanished! They vanished again!"
"This is a spatial gate, isn't it!!!"
"So magical, so shocking!"
"Where did he go? Is it over like this?"
"Great Mage, don't go! We haven't seen enough!"
"Ah! They're out, over there!"
"Gate of time and space, this is the gate of time and space!"
...
After a while, behind the crowd, a similar giant fiery gate appeared, and Bai Ye, pulling Ryukawa Soko, leaped out.
A large crowd of tourists swarmed around them.
"Thank you for your cooperation!"
Bai Ye released Ryukawa Soko's hand. As the tourists surged forward, his body transformed into countless playing cards and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Bai Ye-kun~" Ryukawa Soko's eyes were filled with reluctance.
"Ah! He disappeared again!"
"Where did he go?"
"Is this a 'disappearing and reappearing person' illusion? Impossible, right?"
The tourists exclaimed again, searching for Bai Ye's figure.
"Everyone, please don't get too excited. And don't be too superstitious; mages and gods, they don't exist!"
Bai Ye's voice echoed in everyone's ears again.
"Next, I will perform a small illusion for you – the Lightning Summoning Technique!"
Some tourists found Bai Ye's figure and pointed towards the Statue of Liberty, exclaiming.
"He's there! He's there, on the Statue of Liberty!"
"What is Lightning Summoning Technique? Does he mean he can conjure lightning?"
...
The scene erupted in excitement once more, and the domestic netizens in the livestream chat became even more restless. They had seen Bai Ye conjure super high-voltage electricity before, but what was the meaning of him standing on the Statue of Liberty, which symbolized American ideology?
However, just as everyone was watching Bai Ye prepare to perform, filled with anticipation, a piercing siren sound echoed from Odaiba.
A large contingent of Japanese special police forces rushed into the crowd, sternly warning, "Clear the way, police are on official duty, everyone move aside!"
