Gu Xi was unaware of Luna's seriousness. After cutting off contact with Luna, Gu Xi slept until the next night.

Gu Xi woke up and looked up at the sky outside, his brows furrowing.

Because it was within the inner space of the Chaoyang Radiance Guild, the Golden Crow in the sky kept circling, radiating a faint sunlight.

Even at night, the space is quite bright.

Gu Xi walked to the balcony, stretching his body while looking down at the ground floor.

On the balcony opposite the twelfth floor, a wheat-colored girl was practicing the slashing motions of Two-Handed Sword.

Her movements were quite serious; every swing was delivered with full force, and large beads of sweat were always flicked away immediately.

Looking at the girl's cheetah-like figure, a hint of admiration flashed in Gu Xi's eyes.

This is the beautiful scenery that Gu Xi has discovered over the past three months, and it is also the only time Gu Xi can relax and rest while reading.

However, Gu Xi did not stay on the balcony for long today. After watching for a few minutes, he stretched his body and turned to walk out.

As Gu Xi left the balcony, the girl practicing swordsmanship on the twelfth-floor balcony also looked up.

There was some confusion on her face.

She also had some feelings about her neighbor, Gu Xi.

Whenever Gu Xi appears, he will stand on the balcony for about an hour.

Sometimes I'll even see myself finish practicing.

Why did she leave so early today? Was her makeup not done well? Or was it her outfit that was wrong?

The girl checked herself and found nothing wrong; she was always like this.

That's really weird.

At this moment, Gu Xi was unaware that he was also being watched by others.

In a cheerful Gu Xi, Gu Xi opened the door to find that his clothes had been replaced with the equipment he wore when he went out to war, and he was also carrying the Cold Wind Staff.

As Gu Xi walked towards the Teleportation Gate plaza, his pace quickened considerably.

The players coming and going didn't seem to care much about this situation.

Along the way, they encountered many players rushing to participate in the game, most of whom were in Gu Xi situation.

At most, they would look at Gu Xi's still-present dark circles and mutter to themselves, "Gu Xi is really working too hard."

However, thinking about the Genesis that was about to begin, they would speculate about Gu Xi's identity and wonder if Gu Xi planned to challenge the first wave of Genesis teams.

Gu Xi ignored all of this.

After arriving at the Teleportation Gate plaza, Gu Xi followed the information he had received and went to a red Teleportation Gate.

Upon arriving, Gu Xi said to the person in charge of guarding the Teleportation Gate, "I am a new player, and I am already level 7. I would like to apply for this year's Lower World."

"The players who joined this year are already at level 7?"

It seems you have great potential. Lower World, right? No problem.

"Level 7 corresponds to a level 4 world cap. Let me check, there really are. There are several level 4 worlds, and one of them has been here for a while. If you don't come, this world will be out of our capture range."

Gu Xi nodded as he listened to the person in charge.

The situation in the Lower World was quite simple, after three months of learning about the Gu Xi in the guild.

This kind of world is one without a complete worldview or background; it is often a continent or a small world where a certain period of time keeps repeating itself.

This is exactly what players want, because even if you completely destroy this kind of world, it won't have any impact, and a new Lower World will appear soon.

Therefore, necromancers wreak havoc in this world without worrying at all about disrupting the world's balance.

The so-called "level 4 cap" refers to the fact that the highest level a creature in this world can reach is level 4.

This is also a selection process for players.

Generally, the person in charge will assign level 1 or 2 Lower World to players who have just reached level 5. As the player's level increases, the level of the corresponding world will also increase.

After all, this is a fairly reasonable thing to do.

It's not right for some players to be level 10 and still lead their Bone Dragon into a world full of level 1 enemies to wreak havoc.

Would that even allow level 5 players to play?

This arrangement ensures fairness for all players.

However, apart from the level, which cannot be selected, everything else can be chosen.

"Do you have a direction in mind? I recommend you go to that world that's almost out of our reach."

Gu Xi glanced at the person in charge, his eyes seemingly saying, "Don't push all the unwanted things onto me."

"Comrade, please don't take offense. I didn't mean to push the world I don't want onto you."

However, this world is quite interesting. At the beginning, we discovered that it was a world of Swarm.

One of my comrades chose this world, and he brought with him materials designed to counter the Swarm.

When they got there, they realized that something was wrong.

This world is full of kobolds.

Because he was unprepared, he had to retreat.

We then decorated it according to the Kobolds & Catacombs universe.

But then his former comrades said that was wrong; that world was the world of Goblins.

Moreover, they weren't ordinary Goblins; they were organized and technologically advanced Goblins.

This situation makes people question the nature of the world.

Some people want to see what this world is really like.

But each time you enter this world, you will encounter different situations.

Even with thorough preparation, you may still encounter specific situations.

The former comrades-in-arms did not receive enough benefits, and over time, these comrades-in-arms were no longer willing to go back.

At the same time, this world has not been conquered by anyone.

"See if you're willing to go there. If not, we can go somewhere else."

Hearing how strange this Lower World was, Gu Xi also became curious.

"Has anyone figured out what's going on with this world?"

"We did investigate, but we couldn't find anything. After all, we encountered some trouble during the attack, and our comrades were unwilling to continue fighting since they weren't getting any benefits."

Naturally, no one has studied it in depth.

Gu Xi became somewhat curious upon hearing this.

"Why don't you just give me this world?"

Upon hearing Gu Xi's words, the person in charge smiled.

The world before them would soon be out of their reach.

If this world gets lost, then all the resources we previously allocated to capturing the Game World, establishing a stable entrance to it, and deploying it will be wasted.

When he reports, he can't very well say that a total of how many players were deployed to this world this time, and that they all returned defeated.

So when Gu Xi said he wanted to go to this world, the person in charge smiled happily.

The update was done too quickly, and we're trying to get someone to adjust the order. Please forgive us, it's not easy to find people on the weekend!
