Long Yuan's Gamble!
"Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card?!"
"Elder Long, are you going to grant Lin Ye the Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card?"
"Elder Long! This..."
Everyone looked on in astonishment.
The Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card is said to be the most expensive item on the entire Azure Star.
Keep in mind that it takes ten million points to redeem one ticket, which is enough points to upgrade a person to LV4.
It's not just expensive; these privilege cards aren't something you can just buy with money.
The Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card can only be purchased by those who advance to the top 10 of the Hero Ranking, and only one card can be purchased per year.
It's fair to say there's a price to pay, but no market for it!
It's purely a privilege offered by the Heavenly Ranking specifically for top experts.
The Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card, as the name suggests, can exempt a person from point deductions for a certain period of time, ensuring that they are not eliminated by the Firmament Curtain. In essence, it is a life-saving device.
People who play games frequently will easily understand that the so-called "immunity to obliteration" can actually be understood as a period of damage immunity.
It resembles a riot control vest.
The cardholder can use this card on anyone. The next time that person has points deducted, the Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card will take effect, and the effect period is one day in the real world.
If the deducted points are enough to eliminate the user, then the point deduction is offset, and in this case, using this card is not a bad deal.
However, if the points deduction next time is insufficient to eliminate the user, for example, if the user deducts ten points in the next day, then the Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card only offsets ten points, which is an absolute loss.
Of course, there is another situation: if the user does not deduct any points during the day, it means that the immunity card has not been activated, and the points will be returned to the original owner of the card.
After careful consideration, the group concluded that, as the current Dungeon Designer, the only thing the Great Xia Settlement could do for Lin Ye was this special effect card.
However, Old Master Long Yuan and Lin Ye had never even met.
The fact that this Dragon Country Commander was willing to directly exchange a card granting Lin Ye Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card shows just how much he values Lin Ye!
"What's the big deal?" Long Yuan grinned and continued to smile.
"I think if Lin Ye fails the ' Winter Is Coming 'Instance, he'll lose more than ten million points. It's absolutely worth it for this old man to exchange ten million points for this kid's life!"
"That's like they made a killing off Firmament!"
Li Yunlong swallowed hard. He couldn't believe that Long Yuan made this decision so easily.
Ten million points—this is arguably the absolute reliance for a Challengers to be defined as a top-tier powerhouse.
If I remember correctly, Grandpa Long Yuan currently has around 19 million Point Reserves, just one step away from 20 million.
Exchanging for the anti-explosion card would certainly save Lin Ye, but Long Yuan himself would be downgraded from LV4 to LV3, falling out of the ranks of the top Challengers.
The difference between LV4 and LV3 is quite significant, the key being the permanent Instance Exemption Authority.
As long as you don't actively seek trouble like someone like Xiaochuan, you'll never die!
However, LV3 does not have such privileges, which means that they will face the same danger as lower-level Challengers: being directly pulled into the Instance by other Dungeon Designers.
This is still from a personal perspective.
From the perspective of the Settlement, the impact would be even greater.
From the moment he redeems the special effect card in Long Yuan, he will have 10 million points deducted.
His ranking will drop from seventh on the Hero Ranking to outside the top thirties!
The benefits and Firmament that the Great Xia Settlements could enjoy would also be greatly reduced.
This had an immediate and significant impact on the Great Xia Gathering Place.
"But... but Elder Long, your level will drop directly," Li Yunlong said.
"It's just gambling, isn't it?" Long Yuan didn't take it seriously at all. He picked up the old water vat and took a big gulp of water.
"I'm getting old, and anyone with eyes can see that Lin Ye's talent and skill far surpass mine."
"I bet this kid will lead Great Xia forward bravely in the future, is that so wrong? Hahaha."
As he spoke, a serious expression suddenly appeared on Long Yuan's kind and honest face.
"Ha... My Great Xia has been too weak all these years, and these damned people have become so arrogant."
"These people can Great Xia us, they can scheme against us, they can do whatever they want with us!"
I'm determined not to let them succeed!
After saying that, Long Yuan shouted directly:
"Firmament, I want to exchange for an immunity-to-annihilation special effect card!"
[Firmament Notification: Dear Challengers, Firmament Curtain has detected that your status meets the purchase requirements for the Immunity from Annihilation Privilege Card! However, Firmament Notification you that your level will decrease after purchase. Do you wish to redeem it?]
"Sure!"
[Dear Challengers, your points are below 10 million, and you are now downgraded to LV3.]
[Annihilation-Prevention Privilege Card has been redeemed!]
In an instant, a golden light flashed from above Long Yuan's head and shot directly to the Above the Dome.
"Use this privilege card directly on Lin Ye, the designer of the Great Xia Dungeon Designer, who is also the Designer of the Instance 'Winter Is Coming'!"
[Firmament Notification: The Annihilation-Prevention Privilege Card has been used up! The Annihilation-Prevention Privilege has been activated for Lin Ye!]
The moment Long Yuan used this privilege card, the entire Great Xia Settlement underwent a dramatic change!
The earth was shaking violently, and the flowers, plants, and trees in the city, which were once full of life, were now withering away amidst the intense tremors.
The infrastructure crumbled little by little under the irresistible force of the earthquake, like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle being dismantled, gradually turning into shattered mosaic fragments.
In that instant, the appearance of the Settlement seemed to have regressed by thirty years.
It's all because of the drop in Long Yuan level.
Top 50 Designers bring various benefits to their Settlement, and the improvement brought by each ranking increase is enormous!
The current decline in Long Yuan's level has significantly reduced the amount of resources that Firmament allocates to the Great Xia Settlement.
"Elder Long!"
"Elder Long!"
It wasn't until Long Yuan decisively completed this task that everyone truly realized what it meant.
This can be described as an incredibly huge gamble, betting the entire fortune of the Great Xia Dynasty on Lin Ye!
What are you all getting so excited about?
"I'm not dead, I just have ten million points. The old man still has quite a few points left."
"Haven't you all had enough of being bullied by other Settlements all these years? Can't you see now that Lin Ye is someone our Settlement is worth betting everything on?!"
As he spoke, Long Yuan revealed a somewhat smug smile.
"Since it's a gamble, I'm betting that Lin Ye won't lose a single penny. That way, we'll make a huge profit."
