Chapter 394: Chapter 375: Trial Event Begins


"Would you like to enter the ’Glory of the Gods’ world now?"


[Confirm][Okay]


Banxia Liuli looked at the options in front of her and quickly chose: [Okay],


Then, with a flash of the screen, Banxia Liuli appeared in the previous Trial Map.


When Banxia Liuli saw the scene before her, she discovered that Shield Warrior Proud Gaze, Elf Shooter Dodo, and the taciturn Thief Blood Conceal Demon were already waiting there.


Next, Banxia Liuli hurriedly checked the time and found there were still over 5 minutes until the start of the fiery red, letting out a sigh of relief:


"Glad I made it."


Seeing Proud Gaze and Dodo staring at her, and thinking they were blaming her for being late, Banxia Liuli instinctively explained:


"The cafeteria is quite far from the dormitory, so it took a bit more time, sorry."


Looking at Banxia Liuli’s nervous appearance, Proud Gaze couldn’t help but laugh:


"No worries, as long as you’re here. It hasn’t started yet."


Dodo also joked on the side with a helpless tone:


"Don’t worry, you’re not the last one."


"Not the last one?"


Banxia Liuli suddenly thought of something:


"Right, where’s our last teammate?"


At this point, Banxia Liuli looked around and realized there were only four people, puzzled, she asked:


"Hasn’t he arrived yet?"


An hour has nearly passed, could it be he’s not coming?


Banxia Liuli felt inexplicably nervous, thinking: Could it be my bad luck to encounter an unreliable teammate?


Dodo turned to look at Proud Gaze:


"Didn’t you say you knew him? Shouldn’t we contact him, don’t miss the activity start time!"


No one wanted anything to go wrong for this event.


They didn’t want to inexplicably lose a teammate before the event even started.


Hearing Dodo’s words, Banxia Liuli looked at Proud Gaze in surprise:


"You know that person?"


"Who is it?"


Proud Gaze had a bitter smile on his face as he thought: You guys know this person too!


But knowing is one thing, he didn’t have a way to contact him.


And after entering the Trial Map, people inside cannot communicate with those outside.


The live stream chat will also be blocked for the streamer, preventing any possible cheating.


Based on that person’s reputation, it seems unlikely they would absent themselves from the event without reason?


Proud Gaze thought to himself.


But he chose to keep the mystery alive:


"You all know this person, don’t mention me."


"Plus, for this trial activity, he’ll be our team leader."


"Team leader?"


Dodo and Banxia Liuli were stunned and exchanged glances.


Proud Gaze smiled and said:


"Yes, the team leader!"


"I think you all wouldn’t object to this team leader."


"None of us would object?"


Their faces full of confusion and curiosity at these words.


The taciturn Blood Conceal Demon stood there, and no one knew what he was thinking.


As for Dodo and Banxia Liuli, their hearts were already filled with curiosity.


They had already considered Proud Gaze as the team leader candidate for this event.


Who could this person be, to have even Proud Gaze willingly led by him?


More importantly, everyone present knew this person, so they must have some level of fame.


Seeing their expressions, Proud Gaze suddenly reminded them:


"You are all very familiar with this person, just guess boldly."


Dodo immediately blurted out:


"Could it be Lord?"


Banxia Liuli covered her mouth in shock, eyes filled with disbelief:


"No way?"


The only person with a certain level of fame that both knew could only be someone like Lord.


Hearing Dodo’s guess, even Proud Gaze couldn’t help but reflect: If it weren’t for knowing in advance, even I wouldn’t dare to guess that person.


Because it was just too legendary...


Proud Gaze’s sudden silence made the two believe they had guessed correctly, their faces showing ecstatic expressions:


"If it really is Lord, we’d be so lucky."


Dodo grinned foolishly:


"Who wouldn’t agree."


Randomly forming a team and ending up with two experts was more than satisfying for them.


At first, Banxia Liuli had seen someone like Proud Gaze and was amazed beyond words.


If they were to meet a top expert like Lord, she might faint from happiness.


Just before the event started, with only two minutes left, the mysterious player they eagerly awaited made a grand entrance.


...


"Feng Hua!"


A name admired as a god since the game began, the first player to be deified since the public test of "Glory of the Gods";


And the only one with legendary experiences recognized as the number one player in the Hua Country War Zone.


This name has always held the top position on every major leaderboard in the Hua Country War Zone since the game’s inception, never to be surpassed.


The names from the individual strength rankings, equipment rankings, pet rankings, mount rankings, and honor rankings are like a peak, admirable and unattainable.


Many people list his experiences and find that his gaming career seems to be like a cheat code, never stopping to write his legend.


There is a special forum for ’Feng Hua’ where nearly ten pages are filled with legendary experiences related to Feng Hua. This name is like a belief to players in the Hua Country War Zone!


Until one day, this person even stood at the top of the Endless Tower rankings, crowned as the world’s number one.


His status in the hearts of Hua Country players became unshakable, with countless fans.


And Banxia Liuli was one of Feng Hua’s die-hard fans, but she never dared to imagine that one day she could team up closely with her idol.


The moment Feng Hua appeared, Banxia Liuli seemed petrified, staying in place.


Even the prepared Aoshi Wangchu felt a dreamlike sensation when Feng Hua came online.


The number of players participating in this event was not in the millions, but hundreds of thousands, at least.


To be matched with this legend out of hundreds of thousands of players, the luck is astronomical.


As soon as Lin Yi came online, he saw four pairs of eyes staring at him, and that instant Lin Yi felt like the air around him was freezing.


Lin Yi, not knowing the reason, glanced at the countdown to the event starting, less than two minutes left, and awkwardly explained:


"Sorry, I got delayed by something."


However, even after Lin Yi finished speaking, their gaze remained fixed on him, leading Lin Yi to look at himself out of habit: I didn’t wear the wrong equipment, did I?


When confirming the problem wasn’t with him, Lin Yi looked towards Aoshi Wangchu and asked:


"Is there any problem?"


As soon as he finished, an unexpected scream jolted Lin Yi...


"Wow!!!"


Banxia Liuli suddenly screamed in excitement, stomping her feet:


"Feng Hua the great, it’s really Feng Hua the great, oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! I’m going crazy!"


At this moment, even Duoduo, standing by, shivered in excitement:


"What kind of luck is this, getting me matched with Feng Hua the great, I, I, I..."


Even the previously silent Blood Conceal Demon now had a special gleam in their eyes.


Moreover, in Banxia Liuli’s live stream, three roommates were going crazy, spamming the chat with text filled with the sentiments of infatuated young girls!


Feng Hua! It’s the real Feng Hua!


No matter how they thought, they couldn’t imagine their sister and roommate would get matched in a team with Feng Hua, in the chat:


Miaomeow: "I’m going to tell Qian Qian, this girl is a fanatic for Feng Hua the great. If she sees this, she’s probably going to go insane, hahaha~"


Meanwhile, the other two weren’t idle, spreading the news of such close ’contact’ with Feng Hua to their friends.


Originally just three in the live stream, it was about to whip up a storm because of this legendary name.


Of course, Lin Yi didn’t know any of this.


Seeing the event time about to start, Lin Yi could only calm everyone’s excitement by saying:


"I think it’s necessary for us to discuss some things about this trial first."


As soon as he spoke, Aoshi Wangchu replied:


"Since Feng Hua, the leader, is here, we’ll listen to your arrangements."


Banxia Liuli nodded vigorously like a pecking chicken:


"Yes, yes, yes, I’ll listen to Feng Hua the great."


Duoduo also chimed in:


"I agree."


Who wouldn’t agree!


This is the number one player, Feng Hua!


If even he isn’t qualified to be the team leader, then who else in this game could dare say they are qualified?


Even the silent Blood Conceal Demon followed up:


"No objections from me."


"Uh~"


Lin Yi looked at the reactions in astonishment.


Originally, Lin Yi wanted to have a democratic vote for the leader role, but seeing everyone’s reaction, that step was clearly unnecessary.


Lin Yi was not one to stand on ceremony, and since everyone said so, Lin Yi naturally took on the role of the leader, saying:


"Since you’ve all said so, I gratefully accept."


Then Lin Yi glanced at everyone’s professions, which were:


Shield Warrior, Aoshi Wangchu.


Thief, Blood Conceal Demon.


Priest, Banxia Liuli.


Archer, Duoduo.


Mage, himself.


This professional combination is almost the standard pioneering team, well-balanced.


At that moment, the system suddenly updated:


System: "[Demon Race Trial] begins now! Countdown: 05:59:59"


Meanwhile, the surrounding light rings also vanished. Lin Yi looked around and casually pointed in a direction, saying:


"We’ll head that way."


During the downtime earlier, Lin Yi had already given it some thought.


This so-called [Demon Race Trial] will eventually turn into a survival battle.


In the late stage, whether it’s killing monsters or completing tasks, points won’t be as fast as killing opponents.


So, when no one has many points early on, it will be relatively safe. Therefore, the first thing to do at the start of the event is to kill monsters and do tasks for points.


Then Lin Yi told Blood Conceal Demon:


"Enter stealth mode ahead to scout, report any situations immediately."


Blood Conceal Demon nodded and quickly disappeared from sight using stealth mode.


At this moment, Lin Yi instructed Aoshi Wangchu:


"You take the lead."


"Duoduo and Banxia in the middle, I’ll cover the rear."


"Let’s go!"
