Chapter 319: Game Event —— [Illusion Duel]_1
After the ceremony, Alyssa returned to the Royal Pce to rest, while Tina returned to the barracks to pack her belongings, preparing to hit the road… I mean, to bring her core team to assume roles in Pearl City.
As for Su Yu, he asked Alyssa for a long vacation, intending to return to the Mage Tower in his territory for secluded cultivation.
Now that all the main storylines areplete, the urgent task is to ramp up his strength quickly and advance to the Sixth Tier Sanctuary as soon as possible.
Knowing Su Yu’s situation, Alyssa was reluctant but still agreed to his leave request and cheerfully let him go.
It was noon on July 31st.
Su Yu used the [Hearthstone] to return to the [Town Hall] in Aphi city.
Once back at Town Hall, he opened the tech tree of the territory to check on the current state of technology researches in his territory.
Important research such as [Components], [Steelmaking], [Internal Combustion Engine], and [Electric Power] in the territory were alreadyplete.
After some consideration, he decided to start researching [Wireless Communication].
“Ding, [Wireless Communication] research initiated, expected to bepleted in 48 hours.”
There’s nothing else he needs to supervise next.
Su Yu closed the tech tree panel, exited the Town Hall, activated [Ice Wings] on his shoulder guards and flew towards the Mage Tower.
But just then, he received a private message.
A nce revealed that it was from Snow Leopard.
Snow Leopard: “Have youpleted the main storyline?”
Su Yu: “That’s right.”
Snow Leopard: “What are your ns next?”
Su Yu: “I’m nning to seclude myself in the Mage Tower for cultivation until I reach the Sixth Tier. [Striving hard emoji]”
Snow Leopard: “Your idea is very sound. Sigh![Sigh emoji]”
Su Yu: “What’s wrong? Is it time to change eggs?”
Snow Leopard: “‘Change eggs’? What does that mean? [Confused emoji]”
Su Yu: “Nevermind… Why the sigh, Little Snow Leopard?”
Snow Leopard: “We have spent a lot of man power and resources searching but haven’t found any buildings like [Yulon statue] or [Temple of Heaven’s Altar of the God]. All the massive investments have been wasted, it’s so distressing!”
Su Yu: “So, that’s what it is…”
Su Yu: “But, I think you guys should keep looking. It’s just like when you’re eating and one bun isn’t enough, so you keep eating until the tenth one and you’ll eventually be full, right? Have some confidence!”
In fact, Su Yu wasn’t sure if there were any treasures in the game with simr effects to the [Yulon statue]. At least, there was none when he tried in his previous life.
But just because it didn’t exist in his previous life doesn’t mean it can’t exist in the game.
Based on Su Yu’s intuition, he’s sure it exists; it’s just well-hidden so no one has found it yet.
Therefore, Su Yu supported Snow Leopard’s continued search.
Snow Leopard: “Eating ten buns in one meal…”
Su Yu: “I’m just giving an example.”
Su Yu: “If all else fails, you can invest in my territory!”
Snow Leopard: “Invest in your territory???”
Su Yu: “Yeah! When the territory is promoted to [Small City], you can only build one structure simr to the [Mage Tower], but after that, you can build three more when it is promoted to [Medium City], nine in a [Large City], and twenty-seven in a maxed-out [World-ss City]!”
Snow Leopard: “[Shocked emoji] Why haven’t I heard about this important matter from you before?”
Su Yu: “Well, you never asked!”
Snow Leopard:
Su Yu: “Alright, if you’re interested in this, feel free to negotiate a deal with Swift. We can transfer some of the quotas to you.”
Swift had deeper feelings for Aphi city than Su Yu did.
After all, Su Yu was a “hands-off boss”, busy doing tasks outside all day long.
Swift, on the other hand, was different.
Except for necessary procurement, she barely ever left Aphi city and had a clearer view of the city’s development than Su Yu did.
That’s why Su Yu suggested Snow Leopard negotiate with her.
Snow Leopard: “Okay, I’ll estimate the cost and contact Swift soon. Let’s hope she doesn’t ask for too high a price.”
[System Notification]: The first [Illusion Duel] will be held promptly at 20:00 this evening. yers intending to participate, please reserve four hours of game time. The entrance is located at the center square of each city, and there are abundant prizes waiting for you! (For specificpetition rules, please browse the official website)
Snow Leopard:
Su Yu:
Snow Leopard: “What is this? [Illusion Duel]?”
Su Yu’s mouth twitched involuntarily.
How could he have forgotten about this event?!
Everyst day of the data expansion, there would be an [Illusion Duel] event within the game.
The [Illusion Duel], just like the war games that Tina often yed, uses random maps.
After yers converse with the [Illusion Envoy] and step into the portal, every 100 yers would be randomly allocated into a single map.
Inside this map, the system would bnce the yers’ power dynamically. For example, yers with poor equipment, low levels, and fewer skills would be bestowed buffs to increase damage output and reduce damage intake. This ensures all 100 yers can fight from the same base level.
Then it would be a survival game akin to a battle royale.
The yable area of the map would gradually shrink throughout the 40 minutes, eventually leaving only one yer.
During these 40 minutes, random monsters would spawn in the map for yers to kill. Killing these monsters would reward map-exclusive powerful equipment, potions, one-time consumables, and so on.
Killing other yers would allow you to seize the illusion items they have dropped.
Therefore, the [Illusion Duel] is a major test of luck.
Even a formidable yer like Snow Leopard could capsize under probability, if unlucky enough to encounter an ordinary yer equipped with several power-ups.
So even ordinary yers could potentially win as long as they’re lucky.
The remaining yer would advance to the next round for another fair duel with other surviving yers.
From the second round to the final round (the fourth round in the China region), the gamey is pretty much the same as the first round – survival in the shrinking map.
The only difference is that thest round includes all remaining yers, leading to the final winner.
Every cleared round rewards a yer with high prizes, and the final winner walks away with luxurious rewards everyone envies!
This is one of the rare events within the game.
Snow Leopard then entered the game’s official website through the in-game official forum, reading through all the rules of the event in detail.
Although he didn’t have much gaming experience, he generally understood the game mode.
After contemting for a while, he messaged Su Yu: “This event… Are you participating?”
Su Yu: “I probably won’t participate. I have already gained many benefits through two main storylines. If I grab the prize for this too, I fear it might cause discontent among everyone.”
Snow Leopard: “Okay.”
