Chapter 193 Blademaster

“Okay then.”

Since he had already said so, Xiao Feng was not in a good position to decline. At the end of the day, he would just be going in the same direction as them without acting together.

Besides, Xiao Feng was confident about his current combat ability. Even if he could not summon Xiaobai, there would still be very few chances of running into danger. Maybe if the top player from each district formed a team to come after him, he would be worried.

“In that case, let’s just wait for the announcement of the event rules.”

Lao Xu smiled while speaking. They were already more than prepared, so they were not afraid of the other districts joining forces to target Huaxia District.

The countdown for the event had already started. However, a white light suddenly shone from the ship’s board.

A bunch of players were here to participate in the event. They had rushed and made it in time for the countdown. There were more than 10 of them. The other players looked at them in admiration, including Xiao Feng. This bunch of people were really brave. They were not afraid of missing the event.

“Blade... Blademaster!”

“It’s Ximen Chuixue!”

However, as everyone’s gazes were moving towards them, someone’s expression changed and they exclaimed in shock.

This bunch of players seemed to be together. There were 18 young men in total, with the same guild name above their heads- Bleak!

Other than the man in charge, who revealed his character name, the other 17 hid their character names.

The name of the man in charge had four characters, yet it still shocked the rest. He was called Ximen Chuixue!

He had always held the title of Blademaster in Huaxia District’s online game world and had once gained the glory of being the peak player in the district. His name had already shaken the whole district a long time ago!

Xiao Feng’s gaze also paused slightly, not because of Ximen Chuixue, but because the little punk called Shangguan Aochen was among the people standing behind him. At the moment, he had concealed his character name and his expression was not nice.

Actually, the 18 of them all had cold expressions on their faces. There was a tint of pride in their mysteriousness. They did not intend to bond with other players. Xiao Feng’s gaze only paused on them for a short while before he frowned slightly and retracted his gaze.

At the same time, he also noticed that, as War Spirit Ziyi looked at this bunch of people, her facial expression was much worse than the little punk’s.

Meanwhile, Lao Xu looked at them doubtfully. He seemed like he wanted to say something but was hesitant. Coincidentally, this was the start of the event, so he never had a chance to speak again.

“Ding! The server-wide treasure event has started. We will now be closing the entrance to the preparation venue and canceling the treasure-seeking token. All players in the preparation venue shall be sent to the venue itself. Meanwhile, the rules of the event have been announced. Please check them out by visiting the event NPC at the preparation venue.”

As the system announcement was made, everyone felt the ship beneath their feet sway a bit. This humongous ship had just moved all of a sudden.

The drenched Chu Mengying, who was still in the water, felt the biggest shift. She quickly climbed up, feeling flustered. At the same time, she looked at Xiao Feng mindfully. She was only afraid that he would not let her go.

Luckily, Xiao Feng did not pick on her anymore. He let her climb onto the ship in her drenched clothes. The soaked priest cloak stuck closely to her graceful figure, giving the male players some eye candy.

Meanwhile, after the ship moved slightly, the calm sea also started to get rough. The ship was indeed advancing. The islands up ahead started to get clearer.

However, no one cared about the boat. They quickly surrounded the activity NPC, who was holding onto the map of the sea, and began inquiring about the rules of the event.

The rules of the ‘Server-Wide Treasure Hunt’ were the following.

One: All participating players will be sent to Treasure Island collectively. Each big district will be entering from a different direction. The possibility of encountering each other at the start is not ruled out.

Two: A large amount of Treasure Box Monsters will come out on Treasure Island. Their Grades vary from ordinary to BOSS. After killing the Treasure Box Monsters, you will not drop your belongings. You will only acquire the corresponding treasure points. If this is a team-kill, the treasure points will be split up evenly among the team members. However, the maximum number of players per team is five.

Three: The treasure points can be used at the Bonus Area, which is located in the center of Treasure Island. They can be exchanged for prizes. The higher the level of the prize, the more treasure points you will need.

Four: Treasure points can be traded. After killing a player, you will take the dead player’s treasure points.

Five: There are many unknown dangers on Treasure Island. If you are killed accidentally or murdered by other players, you will be disqualified and sent out.

Six: Other than the Bonus Area in the center of the Treasure Island, there is no other safe area on the island. Any players who choose to go offline, please choose your location to do so wisely.

Seven: The duration of this event is 24 hours. If all Treasure Box Monsters are killed, the event will start to count down before the stipulated timing. The countdown will last for one hour so that all players can proceed to the Bonus Area to exchange their prizes. When the countdown ends, all players will be sent out.

Eight: The top 100 players with the most treasure points will be revealed when the event starts. You may check the leaderboard anytime.

The rules of the event were very simple. There were only a few. However, after reading the rules, all Huaxia District players had serious looks on their faces.

The rules were obviously not in their favor!

Moving as a team and being able to gain the other party’s treasure points by killing them would not benefit them!

In order to get the highest prize or even an artifact, one would need a lot of treasure points. Moving with a team implied even point distribution, which would make the accumulation process much slower.

Besides, killing someone else would earn them treasure points definitely much faster than finding Treasure Box Monsters. This was undoubtedly encouraging participating players to kill each other.

So what if the Huaxia District players would not kill each other because of the alliance? What about the other districts? Especially considering that they were joining forces to attack Huaxia District. The fact that killing guaranteed treasure points would boost their urge to kill. This would definitely be extremely unfavorable for Huaxia District!

“No matter what, you need to stick to the plan. If we don’t unite, we will get eliminated by the other districts!”

The event was about to start, so Lao Xu repeated himself. The leader of each big team nodded.

“Wow, why are there so many people? Isn’t this Huaxia District?”

At the same time, a distant voice was heard, accompanied by the laughter of a crowd.

“Who else could it be? They brought so many people to participate in an event! It’s as if they have never seen the world before!”

“Haha! They are bringing their own family members! They truly live up to their name! What a unique characteristic of this district!”

“Haha!”

The Huaxia District players crowding around the activity NPC all turned around immediately. They saw a small ship near them that had emerged out of nowhere on the seemingly endless horizon. There were about 100 players on the boat, pointing towards them while laughing out loud.

“Oh my, aren’t these the kids from Toyo Zone? I’m so sorry, I didn’t recognize you guys. I actually thought this was a bunch of random people.”

The small ship was carrying a bunch of Toyo Zone players. Their scale could not be compared to Huaxia District by any means.

Sword of Dynasty stepped forward immediately and replied impolitely.

“Toyo Zone? Where’s that? Oh my! Are you guys talking about those two or three monkeys? That’s an actual district? I thought there was no one left in Toyo Zone!”

Obviously, the Huaxia District players were not to be messed with, especially when Toyo Zone was the first to provoke them. They returned the insult immediately.

A fight broke out on the sea in an instant. It was a pity that the Huaxia District outnumbered them tremendously. The over 100 players from Toyo Zone lost their ability to fight back very quickly.

“Hmph! You guys only know how to fight with words. Let’s hope you will still be so arrogant when we reach Treasure Island.”

The Toyo Zone players, who were really annoyed and frustrated, started to laugh coldly.

However, they did not know that the Huaxia District players already knew that the big districts had formed an alliance.

“If you have the guts, don’t run as soon as we reach the island. We will destroy Toyo Zone immediately!”

Sword of Dynasty laughed coldly too, voicing out the thoughts of all Huaxia District players. He also secretly interacted with the big teams to destroy these people first.

The Toyo Zone players only laughed coldly. They did not say anything else. The event had yet to start, but there was already a tense atmosphere.

It was a pity that the small ship’s speed and direction were different from their ship’s. They quickly headed in another direction and disappeared from the Huaxia District players’ sight.

The Treasure Island’s outline also started to appear in front of everyone.

“The island is this big?”

Someone shouted. Treasure Island was so big that they could not look at the whole island with one glance.

“I’m afraid there are tens of thousands of players participating in this event. If it was not big enough, we would bump into them right away when we entered.”

“But this place is too big. It won’t be convenient for us to communicate. The distance is too wide.”

“This is indeed a problem. The players of all the big guilds can still communicate via the guilds’ channel, but others will not have any forms of contact.”

Lao Xu frowned. “Does anyone have a better idea?”

Xiao Feng, who had been surfing the forum and had not participated in the verbal fight earlier on, answered casually upon hearing this, “Can’t we just use the forum?”

“Use the forum to stay in touch? Master Healer, how would we go about doing this?” Lao Xu was taken aback. The others also looked at Xiao Feng in confusion.

“It’s very simple. Make a password-protected post. If you want to communicate, just reply beneath the post,” Xiao Feng answered without even looking up.

“Good idea! I’ll make the post right away!” Lao Xu’s eyes lit up instantly and he sprang into action immediately.

The password was set soon and replies were posted in real time. Communicating via a post that could be seen by everyone present was indeed the best communication method at the moment. A number of people looked at Xiao Feng in admiration.

“Dong!”

The ship shook for a bit and then stopped on a beach, signaling that everyone had finally entered the event area. They were on Treasure Island.

“Ding! The server-wide Treasure Hunt starts now!”
