Chapter 667: Chapter 667: The Second Round
A flash of anger passed through Edward’s eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She spoke in a cheerful tone, “Chairman Liaoyuan, do you admire my chest?”
Li Yao casually replied, “Not bad, most likely a 36D, and the peony on your left breast is pretty good. I see you like Chinese culture since you’ve decided to tattoo a peony.”
“You bastard, you’re asking for trouble.”
“Damn it, I’m going to kill you.”
“You little bitch, if it weren’t for the fact we can’t fight here, I’d skin you alive.”
“If you’re brave enough, let’s duel outside.”
The banter between the two was as sharp as flashing swords. It was a drastic change of tone to suddenly be talking so casually.
Edward is not only their revered boss and chairman, but also the goddess of all the males in their guild.
Damn it, we’ve been revolving around her every day without catching a glimpse of a spring scene, but a bastard just used a special piece of equipment to see through, even scanning their goddess all over.
Jeez, what frustrates these people the most is that Li Yao shamelessly took advantage of this situation, what is infuriating is the existence of such a shameless piece of equipment in the game, what’s even more infuriating is why such an awesome piece of equipment is not theirs.
“I don’t really mind. I can stand up if you want a better look.” Edward, holding back her discomfort, continued with a smile, “But whether or not your female companion minds, I don’t know.”
Jin Jin chuckled, “I didn’t expect you to have this trick up your sleeve.”
“Don’t let us catch you emitting blue light when you look at us in the future.” Sister Li also chimed in.
Li Yao’s eyes reverted to their original green color and he said, “Don’t worry, I’m not that bored. My equipment seems to have evolved a little and a new function has emerged, which took me by surprise.”
Li Yao explained in the team channel that when he used the Eye of the Creator, his vision became stronger and he could see things much clearer.
When he looked at Edward and discovered he could scan the data of various parts of the body, he found it peculiar.
So, he took a few extra looks, studying this new function. As for the so-called ‘benefit’, it was just a bonus. Li Yao wasn’t so desperate yet.
What he said just now was simply to provoke Edward.
In his past life, Edward was surrounded by glory and honor, and he had never seen her angry.
But just now, when he saw a flash of anger in her eyes, Li Yao realized that she could indeed get angry, but was just very good at managing her emotions.
“What an impressive person.” Li Yao complimented.
Li Yao ignored the furious crowd. It was Edward who scolded them a few times before anyone calmed down.
After this incident, everyone knew that Li Yao and Edward carried a lot of treasures.
More importantly, everyone knew that the power of teams that had obtained the Golden Dress had greatly increased.
“It appears that the live broadcast channel wants to interview us, ask for our opinions.” Sister Li suddenly said.
Li Yao shook his head and said, “No need. I’m about to announce the rules for the second stage.”
As Li Yao spoke, the Order Armor on his body shone, his wings flapped, and the Sword of Justice reappeared in his hand.
With a flash, Li Yao flew directly into the mid-air amongst the sea of clouds surrounded by numerous platforms.
“Everyone, quiet down.”
Everyone could clearly see Li Yao and hear his voice.
But still, a lot of people were loudly expressing their dissatisfaction, or swearing at Li Yao because they couldn’t stand his showoff. Of course, this is what they thought.
Li Yao ignored them and continued speaking, “What I’m about to say pertains to the rules for the second stage. You guys can continue to make noise, but if you don’t hear something clearly and miss out on something, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”
Everyone quieted down and watched Li Yao intently.
“During the first stage, a total of 8,964,326 teams completed the trial, eliminating tens of millions of teams. The remaining nearly nine million teams will enter the second stage: storming the Trial Ground. This will be a war.”
Li Yao swung his Sword of Justice, a sword light that seemed to divide the heavens and earth split the endless sea of clouds.
For a moment, the clouds disappeared, and everyone watched in awe. Is this the state after becoming a deity? Everyone’s eyes were sparkling.
With the cloud dissipating, everyone could clearly see the giant floating continent below, teeming with demons and angels.
They could adjust their perspective and magnify any area they wanted to see.
At this moment, everyone was stupefied and now understood what the so-called Trial Ground was.
The place they were in right now was the stands of the supposed arena, and the continent below was the core of the arena.
Everyone was stunned. Using a small world as an arena was terrifying.
“As you all saw, demons and corrupted angels fill the continent below. Our mission is simple: invade and occupy this Void continent. Take back the Trial Ground from the Hell Legion.”
“The rules are also simple. Earn military merits. Regardless of your methods, whether by killing demons or occupying stronghold, any of them would result in earning military merits. The teams who managed to occupy the continent or were ranked in the top 980,000 in terms of military merits will advance to the next round.”
“There will be no equipment as rewards this time. If you want to obtain equipment, you can hunt demons or trigger some hidden quests to seek opportunities within the continent.”
“At the end of the second round, the real military medals of Paradise will be bestowed.”
“The captain of the top team earns the Three-Star General/Military Governor badge, you can transform into the General of Paradise, and become a faction leader.”
“The team captains from second to the one-hundredth place receive a Three-Star School Level badge, you can transform into officers of Paradise and become high-level chiefs.”
“From the one hundred and first place to the thousandth place, they will receive a Three-Star Junior Officer badge; with this, you can transform into Paradise officers, becoming low-level chiefs.”
“For the rest, don’t be disappointed. Although there won’t be any rewards, there will be ordinary medals in the Trial Ground. If you manage to get one, you will be blessed with the power of Paradise. Your strength will greatly increase and match the strength of the medal. Of course, each medal has military merit requirements. If you don’t have enough military merits, you can’t wear the corresponding medal.”
As soon as everyone heard this, their eyes lit up. They were merely elites, those with strong power had just touched the Silver Hero mission.
Obtaining a medal can actually transform them into corresponding chiefs in Paradise, which is absolutely domineering. What’s more important is that obtaining a high-level medal can help them achieve higher rankings.
With these conditions, the warfare becomes unpredictable.
“Good, everyone has a day to prepare. Tomorrow evening at six, gather on time. At six-thirty, the legion transfer will begin, and if you’re late, you’ll be left behind.”
Li Yao finished speaking and flew back to his platform.
“Chairman Liaoyuan, could you reveal some insider information?” Edward privately chatted Li Yao.
Li Yao paused for a moment, then said, “I’ve said everything that I can. As you can see, I’m just planning how everything proceeds, but I don’t have any special privileges.”
Edward chuckled, “Take a look at this item, if you’re interested, I could exchange it for your information.”…
