◎First Release◎
Before participating in the competition, Brody compiled a thick list of names, which included more than 60 confirmed candidates and nearly 100 suspected candidates.
Their attribute information, weapon expertise, family members, and even the composition of their factions, almost everything that can be found is listed in it, which shows that Brody has put in a lot of effort.
"Boss, the time is too short and the information we can find is limited. Please take a look at it for now. I will come back to get a more detailed one after I participate in the Mechanical City Challenge." Obviously, Brody was still dissatisfied with the thick stack of information.
Yan Yu: "...Good luck in the competition."
"yes!"
Brody walked out of the equipment store with full SSS-level equipment and full of confidence.
The day after he left, Song Fa came with more than 400 guild members, and the two sides finally met successfully in the floating world.
Yan Yu waved her hand and spent a huge amount of money to buy a large hotel not far from the store as the base of their Blue Star's No. 1 Guild.
The hotel has a total of 26 floors, and the bottom 20 floors have 20 rooms on each floor. The rooms are divided into single rooms and double rooms, and everyone can choose according to their needs. Yan Yu knows that there are seven or eight couples among the members during this period, and they may need separate space.
The top 6 floors of the hotel have restaurants, gyms, conference rooms, training rooms, swimming pools, etc., which can meet their daily needs.
After arranging his subordinates, Yan Yu called several key members including Song Fa, Yao Dongxin and Liu Zhi to the small conference room on the second floor of the equipment store.
Yan Yu got straight to the point: "I'm sure you've all heard about the 'King's Arrival' challenge. There are 100 candidates for the challenge, and I'm one of them."
Yao Dongxin and the others were shocked at first, but soon accepted this setting. After all, ever since they met Yan Yu, she seemed to be omnipotent. So, it was very reasonable to trigger the highest level challenge after only half a month in the floating world.
Yao Dongxin: "Boss is awesome! He really makes us Blue Star proud!"
Hearing Yao Dongxin's rather rude words, Song Fa coughed heavily, then suppressed his worry and turned his gaze to Yan Yu: "This challenge is a fight to the death for all candidates in the Sai. I'm afraid you will encounter an unprecedented crisis."
Even though Yan Yu possesses the talent of an SSS-level divine creator, he has only recently entered the floating world and is weak and outnumbered. Compared with those old monsters who have been deeply rooted in the floating world for a long time, his foundation is too poor. If he is not careful, he can easily become a stepping stone for others.
Now, whenever Song Fa thought about the possibility of Yan Yu being injured or dying, his heart ached terribly.
Seeing that Song Fa's face looked bad, Yan Yu smiled soothingly.
"Since entering the Infinite Survival Game, our fate has never truly been in our own hands. At least becoming the Lord of the Floating World can give us some freedom and control. I will not give up."
Her eyes and tone were extremely firm. Anyone who saw her would know that she had made up her mind and would definitely not give up this good opportunity to challenge "The King's Arrival". Even if the future was full of thorns and obstacles, she would only move forward.
At this point, Yan Yu winked playfully: "Besides, I'm not fighting alone, don't I have you guys with me?"
They had originally come together because of the same ideals and similar beliefs. There was no reason for her to choose to retreat at the critical moment.
She has never been one to bow to fate.
And they are not either.
Song Fa's breath was choked, his mind and eyes filled with the glowing woman standing in front of him, his heartbeat almost bursting out of his chest.
"Yes, there's also me and them. We will always be your strongest backers and will do everything we can to help you win in the end!"
Song Fa paused strangely for a moment in the middle of his speech. Yao Dongxin and the others, who knew what he was thinking, looked at each other knowingly, raised their eyebrows and smiled.
Yao Dongxin immediately stated, "Don't worry, Boss. We will definitely support you all the way. If you become the Lord of the Floating Realm in the future, the benefits you will bring to us are obvious. Maybe you can even bring all the players on Blue Star into the Floating Realm."
"By then, we Blue Star players may become the eleventh largest force in the future central city. This all depends on you, boss." Liu Zhi adjusted the brim of his hat and added the second half of Yao Dongxin's sentence. The implication of his words was also to support Yan Yu's choice.
Upon hearing this, Yan Yu made an "OK" gesture and clapped his hands with Song Fa and the others.
After reaching a consensus, Yan Yu handed the information compiled by Brody to Song Fa: "You can take a look at this list of candidates compiled by my new little brother, Brody from the Mechanical Clan."
Song Fa took the information and nodded: "I will send people to closely monitor the movements of these people, and respond promptly if they make any moves."
"Also," Song Fa looked at Yan Yu with deep eyes, "I'm worried that one of the candidates will send someone to assassinate you, so I must provide close protection. I will live with you on the third floor of the store."
Yan Yu: ...
Without waiting for Yan Yu to reply, Yao Dongxin let out a meaningful "tsk" and looked at Song Fa with a look that said, "Good boy, you've really made it. You even know how to play the trick of being close to the water and getting the moon first. Awesome!"
Song Fa glanced at Yao Dongxin speechlessly, using his eyes to stop his funny expression of winking and making faces, which looked too unserious.
But Yao Dongxin remained unmoved.
So Song Fa turned his gaze to Liu Zhi: Who is in charge?
Liu Zhi raised her lips, grabbed Yao Dongxin's ear with one hand, and twisted it hard.
"My dear wife, it hurts! It hurts!" Yao Dongxin quickly covered his ears and begged for mercy. He dared not laugh at his virgin friend anymore.
After entering the infinite survival game, many members of the Blue Star First Guild established deep friendships through sharing hardships and became several couples. Yao Dongxin and Liu Zhi were one of them.
Yao Dongxin is used to playing tricks, and he and the strict and ruthless Liu Zhi used to dislike each other. However, after a period of contact, and the two of them working together to clear several difficult dungeons, they can be said to have shared life and death, and finally got together.
However, Yao Dongxin has some Sichuanese genes in him. He is not afraid of anything except his wife.
Every time Song Fa couldn't control Yao Dongxin, he would just use the willow branch and it would definitely work.
Yan Yu looked at Yao Dongxin and Liu Zhi playing and fighting, and couldn't help but smile: It's great that the cruel survival game did not destroy the beauty in their hearts. With companions and lovers by their side, even if they are destined to go to hell, they have the courage and belief to survive.
So, what exactly is Songfa to her?
She knew his feelings, but she couldn't figure out her own feelings. Although she had a fiancé, she had experienced the double betrayal of her fiancé and her best friend, which made her avoid love.
The shelf life of love is too short, can friendship last longer?
If Song Fa really confessed his feelings to her, should she accept it? If she accepted it and they broke up in the future, could they return to their current situation?
Song Fa actually fits Yan Yu's aesthetic very well, whether it's his appearance, personality, or the way he behaves. If it were in the real world, she wouldn't mind having a sweet love affair with him without caring about the outcome.
The problem is that she is in a survival game full of dangers. Not only is the pressure of survival high, she is also responsible for the entire Blue Star's First Guild, and even the future destiny of all Blue Star players. The pressure is so great that she has no time to stop and rest, otherwise she would not be dealing with forging every day and has no mood to think about other things for the time being.
If I promised Song Fa but didn't have time to accompany him and failed to meet his expectations, it would actually be unfair to him...
Yan Yu had a lot of chaotic thoughts in his mind, so he didn't have time to refuse Song Fa's request.
The corners of Song Fa's lips curled up slightly, but soon returned to normal: "In that case, I'll sleep in the guest bedroom next to you, so that I can protect you nearby."
Yan Yu: ...
To refuse at this point would be too deliberate.
The topic quickly shifted elsewhere.
Song Fa: "The most urgent thing now is that everyone needs to improve their strength quickly. The gap between us and the other 99 candidates is too big. If we don't collectively raise our levels to the Great Perfection of the Soul Condensation Realm, we will probably become a burden to Yan Yu."
The vast majority of other candidates are city lords, elders, elite children, etc. from major forces. With the support of powerful forces and increased resource allocation, they are almost more than ten blocks ahead of the No. 1 Guild on Blue Star.
Yan Yu and their hopes of winning are slim.
Therefore, at this stage, they must keep a low profile as much as possible and focus on improving their strength.
Yan Yu: "I have two SSS-level dungeon cores here that you can use for training, but they only open once every 30 days. I'll go to the store's purchasing mall later to see if there are other high-level dungeon cores for sale."
Song Fa nodded: "I also have two dungeon cores, but one is SS-level and the other is SSS-level. The SS-level one opens once every 15 days, and the SSS-level one opens once every 30 days. I can enter the SS-level dungeon in just 4 days."
"Dong Xin and I each have an SS-level dungeon core, which will be unlocked tomorrow and seven days from now, respectively." Liu Zhi stroked her chin, a thoughtful expression on her face. "I remember Tao Tao and the others also got two or three S-level dungeon cores. If you manage your time well, you can level up in dungeons almost every day."
During the few months that Yan Yu was away, the members of Blue Star's First Guild all had adventures and obtained a lot of good things, the most valuable of which were the copy cores.
Yan Yu: "We can also use the guild's battle space and meditation room. After Brody finishes the game, I'll ask him to help find some high-level dungeons that we can enter."
Song Fa and his men need to improve their strength through continuous fighting, but Yan Yu's upgrade method is different from theirs. He needs to constantly forge and practice spiritual techniques.
After handing over the task of leading the team to upgrade to Song Fa, Yan Yu re-entered the meditation room to forge equipment.
Anyway, she is used to being a hands-off boss, so Song Fa believes that those who are capable should work harder.
Yan Yu did not use S-level equipment blueprints this time, but switched to SS-level equipment blueprints. She currently has a total of 37 SS-level equipment blueprints, including SS-level clone belt, green fairy skirt, soul-devouring whip, thunder god wristband, water god crown, etc., which are more than the same-level blueprints of most equipment masters in the floating world, of course, except for those top blacksmiths supported by major forces.
The last time she forged the clone belt, she got a fairy-level equipment, which almost cost Yan Yu half her life. This time, she specially bought 3 SSS-level spirit crystal cores for self-defense to prevent herself from running out of energy.
I didn’t expect that after all my planning, something would still go wrong!
