Chapter 359: Half a Step Better Than You (Monthly Ticket Plus)



Wen Nan had asked Yu Shujun before if she could transfer the other two pieces, apart from the one that had turned into a golden driving pattern, to Wen Nan.

The reply was that the [Anchor of Solidity] could not be transferred to Wen Nan because it was in use.

But that piece of [transferred hand] is obviously in a rentable state.

So Wen Nan didn't bother to be polite with the other party and borrowed it directly on the spot.

The result is that now Wen Nan and Yu Shujun have exactly the same number of fragments. In this tie situation, Wen Nan doesn't know who will get the priority to choose the topic.

But this is no longer important because candidate No. 3 does not accept the current statistical results.

The moment the other party typed the application into the large screen above his head, Wen Nan was certain that the one who entered the sheath of the divine staff this time was Carl Milak himself.

If it was a novice player like Yin Zhien, whose gaming experience was not much higher than Wen Nan's, it would be impossible for him to understand such advanced means of communicating with the system of the Scepter Sheath.

I’m not sure whether the other party used props or skills, but this is definitely the method used by a high-level player.

It seems that what Yin Zhien told Wen Nan in the sheath of the magic wand last time was true -

This time, the president of the [Ghost Tamer Alliance] Guild wanted to kill Wen Nan in the testing space of the sheath of the divine staff.

Saying "get rid of" is actually not quite accurate.

Just as Yu Shujun had reminded me before, players are bound by the system rules of this strategy-type copy and cannot kill other players. Otherwise, even if the opponent is unrestrained inside the sheath of the scepter, leaves here and returns to the copy, he or she will still be held accountable by the local system.

So, to be more precise, this Carl Milak wanted to make Wen Nan helpless in this test space, and then find a way to completely get rid of Wen Nan after leaving this copy.

To do this, first of all, Carl Milak needs to get a test question that best suits him, that is, he needs priority in choosing the question.

In order to get priority in choosing topics, he needs to ensure that the number of fragments he holds ranks highest.

This part is definitely not enough now.

At this time, when he saw that the priority right to select the topic was about to be determined, this last step, he applied for a recalculation of the numbers. It was obvious that he was well prepared.

He had already made all the calculations and was ready to catch Wen Nan and Yu Shujun off guard.

What is his plan?

Hiding in the darkness, Wen Nan's lips curled up slightly——

He was sure that the key to the other party's plan was hidden in the few characters he deliberately left outside the copy.

Just as I was thinking about it, the message on the floating light screen above my head jumped to -

[Candidate No. 3, in this test phase, you have one and only one chance to apply for recalculation of the number of fragments you hold. Are you sure you want to use it? ]

The other party immediately clicked to confirm, and soon, the prompt jumped again -

[Candidate No. 3's application has been accepted. Now we will enter the preparation phase before recalculating the number of fragments. All candidates have a total of 15 minutes to prepare. Now the countdown for preparation begins——]

【15:00——】

【14:59——】

Wen Nan slowly withdrew his gaze from the huge countdown panel that was constantly flashing above his head, and turned to look at Candidate No. 3 in front of him.

Now in the testing space of the Scepter's Sheath, it is definitely impossible to communicate normally with the outside world. You cannot ask for help from guild members, you cannot ask for help from other players, and it is impossible to temporarily expand your equipment library.

So, if nothing unexpected happened, Wen Nan expected that the other party would make some changes to the equipment they already had.

Sure enough, just after the countdown had been ticking for a few seconds, Candidate No. 3 suddenly stood up straight, opened his legs to an angle slightly wider than his shoulders, and then raised one arm above his head with his five fingers stretched out towards the sky.

Well... this is a very standard posture for a beautiful girl to transform.

Of course, it is impossible for the opponent to transform into a magical girl on the spot at this time.

This should be...

Some kind of summoning ritual.

As soon as this thought came to mind, I saw a blue-purple light suddenly flashing in the originally pitch-black area above the test space. It looked like some big shot was about to pass a calamity.

Then, with a flash of lightning, a woman fell from the sky and swooped down towards Candidate No. 3.

When the woman was about to get close to Candidate No. 3's palm, she suddenly changed her form and turned into a brown-black staff.

The staff finally solidified in the palm of Candidate No. 3, with a dazzling gem inlaid on one end.

Wen Nan recognized it at the first sight. This was the long-range equipment that Yu Shujun had mentioned before, the one that was controlled by Carl Milak through a poisonous insect and could transform into the appearance of a woman.

Such female characters are essentially equipment belonging to the player, and the test space of the Scepter's Sheath stipulates that candidates have the right to control and use all their equipment during the test. Therefore, no matter where they are, they can be summoned at any time.

As for the gem inlaid on the end of the staff, one can guess without looking closely that it must be a new piece of the scepter fragment.

The reason why Carl Milak only brought a few characters who were not top-notch when he first entered this dungeon was because he had been planning the battle for the qualification test inside the sheath of the Scepter from the very beginning.

Those high-star female characters were obviously sent by him to go to his allies to look for the rental rights of new scepter fragments.

The staff he had carried with him was also left outside the copy, so that he could use the summoning function of the equipment to summon it to his side at this moment, and use this to bring in a piece of debris along the way.

This method is undoubtedly successful.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Because the line of text following Candidate No. 3 on the floating light screen above his head quickly jumped to -

[Candidate No. 3: Holding 2 fragments (recounting in preparation).]

Candidate No. 3, who was originally at the bottom, now becomes the one with the most fragments and has the priority right to choose topics.

Seeing this, Wen Nan snorted coldly.

Do you think you are the only one who has this kind of equipment that can be summoned remotely?

After adjusting his stance, Wen Nan raised his arm slightly and shouted, "Sword!"

Under the astonished gaze of Candidate No. 3, a small silver sword came flying through the air.

Then, a clear female voice sounded in the air: "Mo Yu is here, willing to serve the master, go through fire and water, without hesitation!"

The small silver sword landed steadily in Wen Nan's palm. On the hilt of the sword, a gem that looked like a jade pendant was hanging, swaying ostentatiously.

The moment he saw the gem clearly, Candidate No. 3 was shocked.

Ye Jiu, a powerless rookie, actually persuaded the pretentious man from Feng Shui Huan to lend him his magic wand fragment?! Above his head, the count jumped again——

[Candidate No. 2: holds 2.5 fragments (recounting in preparation).]

Once again, Wen Nan was just half a point ahead of Carl Mirak, no more, no less.

After a brief moment of daze, Carl Milak sneered with disdain.

As the president of the other party, how could Carl Milak not know that the other party stole the small silver sword from Wei Zhe?

Carl Milak had long been on guard against the possibility that the other party might imitate him and summon equipment to bring in fragments. He was not panicked at all at this moment - he had already made a backup plan.

Thinking of this, Carl Milak raised his other hand, revealing a gem in his palm - the Voice of Matthew.

Activating the [Voice of Matthew], Carl Mirak shouted, "Here is the fragment of the divine staff [Voice of Matthew], Guard Six, return to your positions immediately!"

As soon as the words fell, a passage was torn out of thin air around the fragments, and a woman walked out of the passage.

The woman was wearing a black tube top and black wide-leg pants. She had very fair skin and short hair.

Wear a thick smoky eye with dark brown lipstick.

After seeing the woman's appearance clearly, Wen Nan was stunned.

This bold makeup, this rebellious outfit...

The guardian of [Matthew's Voice], Yu Shouliu, is the woman who stabbed Yu Shujun to death with the divine staff in Yu Shujun's nightmare in the last test space of the divine staff sheath? ! At this moment, the woman smiled and walked to Carl Mirak, knelt on one knee, and handed a new piece of divine staff to Carl Mirak. (End of this chapter)
