Chapter 688 - 689: 364: Son of Luck
From the initial internal testing to the first public test, then to the second and third public tests, the time in between each was just around fifteen days.
And from the third public test to now, it has already been seventeen days, making it the longest interval between public tests.
“Compared to the previous ones, the Fourth Public Test is something many people don’t want to see, especially the Hua Country players.”
“The reason is simple: once the public test begins, there’s a high probability that spatial channels will appear, the game will once again come to reality, and this would undoubtedly be the most significant impact on the players in Hua Country.”
It must be known that, compared to other states’ players, Hua Country players currently have a significant advantage.
Other countries are occupied by demons, their cities have fallen, power systems are interrupted, they are unable to log in through the game warehouse, and can only enter through the game bracelet itself.
The disadvantage of entering directly through the bracelet is apparent; dying once is equivalent to dying twice, which no one would want to see.
However, players in Hua Country don’t need to worry about that, they can still enter and exit the game through the game warehouse, which means they have ten more lives than players in other states!
Because of this, the population in Hua Country hasn’t decreased but increased, with numerous players from all over the world flooding into Hua Country. Nowadays, the population of Hua Country is even larger than before the appearance of the Demon Game.
Fortunately, Hua Country has a vast territory, which can accommodate these people.
Of course, the number of players who can enter Hua Country is still a minority. The vast majority of people are still in their countries, with weak strengths and no ability to cross the demon-occupied areas to enter Hua Country.
“In addition to these players, there are a large number of ordinary people left behind in their respective countries.”
“A country’s fall does not mean that all ordinary people are subjected to demons; on the contrary, a considerable number of ordinary people have survived.”
“For these people, the Fourth Public Test is undoubtedly a lifesaving straw.”
Although after entering the game, there’s a high probability that they will be assigned to the demon-controlled regions, and if not careful, they might become the demon’s food, but what if they are lucky?
What if they are assigned to the human territories?
Even if they can’t, they will have a way to become stronger and a chance to escape from being killed by demons at any time.
Countless people are waiting, waiting for the game to refresh.
Meanwhile.
In reality, in the snow-covered Antarctic, beneath an inconspicuous iceberg, a few middle-aged people showed joy in their eyes.
Under the white snow, no one knows that under this iceberg, a huge space had been dug out that could accommodate hundreds of people.
Here, various modern facilities are fully equipped, and they can receive all the information happening outside world without being cut off due to geographical reasons.
“The Fourth Public Test is finally about to begin; I hope this time the spatial channels opened can accommodate emperor-level powerhouses.”
“It wasn’t easy for the revived Lord to be killed, and the Holy Artifact was lost. If the Three Saints know, we will be punished for sure.”
“We have no choice. No one expected Wang Nan to be so strong that even the revived Lord was no match for him. Fortunately, we didn’t enter that world, or we would have been killed too.”
“Fortunately, most of the tasks this time have been completed more than halfway, not only successfully spreading the Call Heaven Scripture, but also enabling tens of millions of players to enter into contracts with the treasure of our clan, thus under our control.”
In the ice cave, several people in black sighed in exasperation. If Su Nan were here, he would recognize these people as being from the Destiny Society.
As they came to the cave entrance, they looked at the harsh environment outside and had ugly expressions on their faces.
Their previous base was not here, but they moved to this place the moment they learned of Su Nan’s actions in the game, fearing that just like in the game, Su Nan would come knocking on their door directly.
“Did the news get back to the clan? I wonder how the three saints will respond this time?”
“Relying on our strength, it is already impossible to deal with Wang Nan, unless the clan is willing to send an emperor-level powerhouse, and it can’t just be an ordinary emperor-level powerhouse, otherwise it will still be useless.”
“That’s right, news from the game says that Lang Thirteen has broken through the King Level, becoming the first person to break through, and it won’t take long for Wang Nan to do so as well, by then it will be even more challenging to deal with him.”
It’s been a few hours since Su Nan broke through with Lang Thirteen, and the news has already spread all over the world. Even while hiding in the Arctic, the few people from the Destiny Society still received the news in real-time.
They were puzzled, unable to understand how Lang Thirteen did it.
In their previous analysis, Xuan-level was the limit for players, and no one could break through.
However, seeing Lang Thirteen’s breakthrough now caught them off guard, as it meant that someone had mastered the method of breaking through!
If this method fell into Wang Nan’s hands, allowing him to break through, it would be detrimental for them.
Unfortunately, they would never be able to imagine that Lang Thirteen, Zhang Yang, and Wang Nan were the same person.
“Do we have any news on the whereabouts of the Night Patrol people?”
At this moment, someone thought of another matter and couldn’t help but ask.
“No, they split up from the Hua Country officials after entering the game, and we don’t know where they went.”
“It’s strange. Where could they go? Is it possible that the Divine Race left something behind like our Heavenly Race did?”
