Bai Feifei had already given Lina the list of the Raiders Group members, and she had already registered them.
It's worth mentioning that at the last minute, the Chang Xu Strategy Group, which had been playing dead, also appeared and submitted their list.
Then, a team of ordinary Adventurers who were not part of any Raiders Group also formed, led by Qi Maosong, who had performed brilliantly earlier; this was an unexpected dark horse that emerged from the suggestions of many Adventurers.
The members included Wu Yue and three other Adventurers who had always been somewhat well-known.
At this point, all six teams from Tide Town's Adventurer's Guild had arrived.
Six teams, thirty people, were about to compete in Raccoon City.
The criterion for their victory was: "Survive until the end!"
This was not an escape game, but a confrontation game.
Whoever could survive until the end.
Would be the ultimate winner of this competition.
"I have to say, it really gets me fired up; it's a bit more interesting than soloing."
Li Ruoshu also became interested.
After stretching.
She waited for the start of the Resident Evil Great World.
"The Dungeon has started, entering now..."
"They're here, they're here!"
The Adventurers watching outside also glued themselves to the channels, watching intently.
The first screen to appear was the Jiu Xuan Raiders Group.
Four men and one woman.
Their spawn point was an apartment.
They were currently in a room.
"I have to say, the houses here are really special; just these buildings alone are something no other Lord could construct."
The speaker was Chen Jiu, the leader of Jiu Xuan, a handsome, sunny boy.
"Indeed, from the exterior to all sorts of details, everything is extremely meticulous, like a real world... It's truly hard to believe that this would be a world constructed by one person in just a few days."
"Unless this Lord started conceiving such a world a very, very long time ago, and was certain that he would become a Dungeon Lord in the future?"
The others were also somewhat amazed.
This last guess was just a casual remark, as the possibility was too low, and without a system, even early conception could only result in a vague idea.
After marveling at these irrelevant things for a moment, the members of Jiu Xuan didn't speak much; the serious tactical matters had already been discussed outside.
Now it was a live broadcast.
Some things that shouldn't be said couldn't be said.
Among these five people, the four men looked relatively relaxed.
Only one girl kept frowning, looking out the window, seemingly preoccupied.
"A Xuan, don't put too much pressure on yourself; just participate in the Dungeon normally."
Chen Jiu patted the girl's shoulder, seemingly cheering her on.
A Xuan nodded.
However, at this moment, everyone felt a faint red glow appear in their vision.
As if some change had occurred.
"What's going on?"
"Are we under attack?"
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
At the same time, the Adventurers watching outside also saw all the channel interfaces emit a red glow.
Then, only two lines of text appeared on them.
First was:
"The distinguished Starry Sky Member Li Ruoshu has descended upon this channel!"
This was a small line of text and didn't affect anything.
The biggest problem was the large line of text below it.
"When the Blood-Colored Crown hangs high above the peaks, the Crimson King has ascended over a sea of corpses, all beings prostrate, the bell of the apocalypse tolls!"
"What is this? Is there a new boss?"
"Crimson King, Blood-Colored Crown..."
"There wasn't one in the previous Great World, so why is there one suddenly this time?"
"Wait a minute, I think I remember something!"
Some Adventurers immediately recalled something when they saw the name Crimson King.
"Isn't the Crimson King the title on the perfect clear leaderboard for Beginner Mode !"
"So..."
"It's not a new boss, but a grand entrance animation for a Big Shot!"
"This effect is so cool, truly exclusive to the number one Big Shot on the leaderboard."
"I wish I also had a server-wide announcement; I don't need a title as awesome as Crimson King, just being a Starry Sky Member would be great."
"Then you'd have to do quests! Lord Chen doesn't have many quests right now, so earning contribution points is really as hard as ascending to the heavens."
"Yeah, I really want to do quests..."
Countless Adventurers watching the competition outside expressed their envy.
After all, a server-wide announcement like that, at a glance, was exclusive to Big Shots.
In everyone's eyes, it was an extremely prestigious existence.
However...
The person involved, Li Ruoshu, was so embarrassed she just wanted to curl her toes.
Please, a server-wide announcement is really unnecessary.
What 'peaks' and 'Blood-Colored Crown,' it's so embarrassing I want to find a hole to crawl into.
And... can you please not randomly change my outfit? What kind of skin is this anyway...
Li Ruoshu glanced at her body.
It had already changed into the Crimson King set.
When Chen Yu designed it, he referenced Ada Wong's red combat suit, with a red leather outer layer and a tight black combat suit underneath.
Wearing it on Li Ruoshu, it indeed gave off an Ada Wong vibe.
It made the Adventurers outside's eyes light up, finding her both cool and beautiful.
Li Ruoshu looked at herself in the mirror and found it acceptable; she was quite well covered, so she didn't complain further.
Moreover, the clothing was very light when moving, and from a design perspective, it was very suitable for combat.
The Crimson King set itself had attribute bonuses, but since it was a competition, all these extra bonuses were turned off.
It merely provided a cosmetic skin.
The tactical backpack obtained from the Newbie Mode side quest was also provided to everyone for convenience in the competition, allowing them to get straight to the point.
After all, not everyone had played the Resident Evil Newbie Mode, so fairness certainly had to be ensured; to avoid criticism, Chen Yu had specifically written an announcement regarding this.
The sensation caused by Li Ruoshu's title effect only lasted for a short while.
Everyone quickly got into the zone and focused on the actual competition.
Chang Xu Strategy Group.
The first-in-command, Chang Wenhao, and the second-in-command, Wu Chengxu, were both there, and simultaneously, an unfamiliar person had appeared in the team.
The watching Adventurers expressed confusion, "Who is that person? I've never seen him before..."
"When did the Chang Xu Strategy Group add new members? Don't they usually only recruit people with a certain reputation?"
"I don't know..."
Despite the confusion, the members of the Chang Xu Strategy Group did not respond, and the matter quickly passed.
There were quite a few new faces appearing this time; such a large-scale collective debut was a first in Tide Town.
In the initial rooms, the six small teams didn't linger too long; after a brief familiarization, they began to explore outside the door.
