Dragon Raja's Number One Player

..............................

"This is impossible! Does your Xuanyu Company have a problem with this?"

"Exactly! They've set the promotional campaign so high-difficulty! Let's not buy anything!"

"Ahem... I was just kidding, bro, it's almost my turn in line."

The comments from the audience made Lu Yue, the host on stage, feel somewhat embarrassed.

On the screen, Herzog's trash talk seemed to be mocking him as well.

Lu Yue quietly inquired with the backstage staff through his earpiece and received an affirmative reply.

A smile appeared on his face, and he cleared his throat before speaking:

"Don't worry, everyone, we will definitely pass this test."

"However, I have taken note of everyone's feedback. After discussion, the technical staff has decided to readjust the difficulty. Please wait a moment."

The host's few words warmed up the somewhat awkward atmosphere.

"That's more like it."

"If you're going to give out benefits, then do it generously."

The crowd in the venue gave the organizers a thumbs up and applauded their actions, saying that this was how you should give out benefits.

"What if I manage to complete the game on the current difficulty?"

Suddenly, a discordant voice rang out from the crowd.

That person was so arrogant. Everyone else thought the same thing when they heard this and turned to look.

Li Zhi was standing in the crowd, raising his hand high:

"I'm willing to continue challenging myself with the current difficulties, not for any other reason than to prove to my fans that I'm a real man!"

"If you're interested, you can follow my account on Douyu. I stream various games every day, all year round!"

Seeing that everyone around him was looking over, Li Zhi was glad that he had come up with a brilliant idea.

What do live streamers need most?

Data traffic!

Otherwise, why would so many livestreamers try to capitalize on the trending topic? With so many people in the venue right now, isn't this the perfect time for them to promote themselves?

Lin Zhiying had to admire Li Zhi; he really did have some talent for this line of work.

Most people aren't as shameless as him.

"If anyone can complete the game at the current difficulty level, I will personally award them an additional 50,000 yuan."

Suddenly, another voice came from the side of the stage.

The host, Lu Yue, turned his head and glanced at it, instantly breaking out in a cold sweat.

Han Li, President Han, is the person in charge of this publicity campaign at Xuanyu Company. Why did he come directly here?

Han Li smiled at him.

Li Zhi's request can fill the gap during this period of adjusting the difficulty level.

For the sake of publicity, he naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Anyone else willing to take on the challenge? If you successfully complete the current difficulty level, you'll receive 50,000 yuan!"

As Han Li spoke, he raised five fingers.

His words were like adding fuel to the fire in the already hot oil in the room, and many people raised their hands to indicate that they were willing to try.

Lin Zhiying was also dragged into the conversation by Li Zhi, who said that he couldn't be the only one embarrassed.

So you weren't confident after all. Lin Zhiying originally thought Li Zhi was confident he could pass the test, but now it seems he's just shameless!

However, Lin Zhiying does have some ideas on how to pass the test.

With the addition of these two, a total of seven challengers were gathered at the venue.

The staff led them backstage, and Lin Zhiying lay down and put on the familiar game-themed device. Immediately, a familiar notification sound came to his ears.

[Ding, please select mode: "Guest" or log in to "Existing Account"]

[The game levels are designed independently and will not affect your in-game account content, including but not limited to: consumables, money, equipment durability, etc.]

Will the items in the original account not be consumed?

Lin Zhiying thought of something. If he was only 50% sure of passing the level before, now he was 50% sure!

He's going to take on ten of them!

"I choose to log in with an existing account."

The gaming helmet scanned details such as Lin Zhiying's pupils and passed the information verification.

[Ding, account "Lin Zhiying" has been logged in]

[Level: 15 (Balancer)]

Elemental Affinity:

Fire: 30

Spirit: 30

[Word of Power: Monarch's Flame (Temporary), Word of Power: Serpent, Word of Power: Time Zero]

【thing:

[Execution Department Basic Three-Piece Set (Grade E), Peacekeeper (Legendary Unique)]

........................

On the large screen next to them, images of several other people flashed by.

Because there are only seven people, there is plenty of screen time, and everyone gets a portion of the frame.

Soon, people noticed Lin Zhiying's difference; he was the only one among them wearing black armor, standing out from the others.

"Huh, why did this person bring their own equipment?"

Someone asked a question with doubt.

"Because he logged into his game account."

Other audience members immediately offered their explanations.

On stage, Han Li also scanned the challengers, and finally his gaze slowly landed on Lin Zhiying.

Executive Department Set?

It seems this person is quite experienced.

Han Li shook his head. Giving up a "guest" account for just a little bit of equipment was clearly not a wise choice.

Inside the level, since some players can find rocket launchers, they can also find other items, some of which can directly affect the outcome of the game.

This is precisely why the technical department is confident that someone can pass the test.

Han Li didn't think that the players' own accounts could compare to the "guests'" three A-level Word Spirit selections.

Not to mention the game equipment; those are practically trash, how could they possibly kill Herzog?

........................

The other players in the scene had all seen how the first group of players played, so they were all searching for items in the ruins.

Lin Zhiying was the only one who didn't. He went straight into the street and walked openly in front of Herzog.

"What is he trying to do? Herzog's strength in the first stage is indeed weak, but this is still too much, isn't it?"

Han Li looked at Lin Zhiying, who hadn't searched anything but had stared straight at Herzog's face, and slowly shook his head.

He originally thought this guy had the highest probability of clearing the game among them.

It seems I misjudged him; this guy has absolutely no memory of anything. He probably just got lucky in the game.

"Ha, here comes another one who's not afraid of death."

Herzog, hanging upside down from the roof beam, opened its dark golden eyes and flapped its wings to fly down from above.

It pounced straight at Lin Zhiying with incredible speed, its ferocious dragon claws gleaming coldly.

If you touch it, you will either die or be maimed.

"That's it, this kid's going to be eliminated."

"By preventing him from searching for supplies first, he's broken the record for the fastest elimination."

Upon seeing Lin Zhiying's image, many audience members began to mock and ridicule her.

The next moment, everyone saw Herzog's movements on the screen suddenly slow down.

The speed at which it flew over was gradually increased.

It's not him that's slowed down, it's time!

"Word of Power: Time Zero!"

Han Li witnessed this scene and his interest in Lin Zhiying was rekindled. Could this be the source of his confidence?

However, that alone is still far from enough.

Then he saw a crimson flame rise from the folding knife in Lin Zhiying's hand in the picture.

"Word of Power: Lord's Flame!"

Flames danced on the folding knife, distorting the surrounding air as if it were a fire demon from hell.

"Time Zero" was activated again, and Lin Zhiying accelerated continuously, faster than time could pass.

It moved so fast that it left only a blur on the screen, and with a fiery finishing move, it slashed down hard at Herzog, who was suspended in mid-air!

This strike serves as a warning against arrogance and impetuosity!
