This person has strange luck; keeping him around might be useful.
Soon, at 4 PM, the players began to take action, continuing to kill monsters to accumulate survival points.
Xia Xiaoyu sent a private message: "Boss Lu, Red Three is here. She's going to work with Black Three. I don't want to be a third wheel, okay?"
Lu Xingchen sent her a few watermelons and asked her to pass them on to Hong San and Hei San.
When Lu Xingchen stepped out of the tent, Master Babu was already whipping Xie Yunfei with a small leather whip, making him dig for treasure.
Poor Xie Yunfei was covered in wounds and had to work hard to dig sand.
Lu Xingchen took the opportunity to explore the area and killed quite a few strange beasts.
Soon, evening arrived. Lu Xingchen and Master Babu continued drinking beverages and eating barbecue. After they finished eating, they tied Xie Yunfei up and went back to their tent to sleep.
The next day, at just 5 a.m., while Lu Xingchen was still asleep, he heard a game notification sound:
Good morning, dear adventurers! Since everyone is in good condition, the Desert Survival challenge has ended ahead of schedule!
[The vast desert sands—the final battle begins!]
Lu Xingchen sat up, somewhat dazed.
What? It's over again? The final battle has begun?
Who will they fight?
She opened the chat channel, which was already in an uproar:
"What do you mean? 'In good condition'? Are you kidding me?"
"I just had a full meal, and you're telling me I'm in good health? What's so good about that? That's unreasonable!"
"I think I know what's going on. From day one, the number of players dropped rapidly. However, since we got fire, the problem of food has been solved, and the problem of being cold at night has also been solved. So, the players aren't dying as quickly anymore."
"What? They're dying fast enough? The number of deaths has been steadily decreasing, okay?"
"Exactly, in two days, 48 hours, at least a third of them have died. Is that a small number?"
"But most of this one-third died the day before yesterday!"
"I see, the game can't stand seeing us having it a little easier, right?"
The players kept complaining angrily.
Lu Xingchen was speechless.
Indeed, everyone had just started to feel a little better when it ended just like that.
But who exactly is he going to duel with?
This is also a question that players are curious about.
At 6:00 AM, another announcement came:
[Congratulations on advancing to the final battle!]
[Now that the game has gradually stabilized, the rules for this final battle are as follows:]
[1. This decisive battle requires team participation, with a team size of 1-5 people!]
[2. Only those who meet the survival point requirements are eligible to lead a team. If the team leader is a player, the team can have a maximum of 2 NPCs; if the team leader is an NPC, the team can have a maximum of 2 players.]
3. After the team leader completes the formation, they must arrive at Yanhuo Ancient City to register within 48 hours. Latecomers will not be accepted!
[The qualified team captain will be announced later!]
The chat channel immediately went wild after the announcement!
"What do you mean? What do you mean? The final battle?"
"Okay, don't worry, I absolutely have no right to lie down!"
"So, this is a decisive battle between a select few? Hmm, I'm relieved!"
"Wow, players and NPCs can team up? I thought we'd be hunted by the NPCs!"
"But if the players and NPCs aren't separated, what's the point of the final battle?"
"They didn't tell me how many survival points I needed to qualify?"
The doubts didn't last long.
Less than three minutes later, the game announced:
[After calculation, there are 28 NPCs qualified as team leaders, namely: Master Lei Jin, Master Babu, Lie Yi...; there are 5 players, namely: Lu Xingchen, Xuan Yuan Linglong, Chu Hongyi, Lu Haoyue...]
[NPCs and players who have qualified as team captains can choose to team up for the final battle; they can choose to forfeit or participate as team members!]
Lu Xingchen suddenly understood why Hei San had asked her to collect survival points!
