Ranked Match Matters-Don't Tell Them
"Jiu Chen, you shouldn't have revealed our identities to anyone on Blue Star. The game <Cloud Sea> isn't as simple as you think. One day, you'll regret it!"
Luo Yi's voice was deep and cold, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
If Xiao Fan really was a player who ended up on Blue Star, he might regret it now.
"Why do I say that? With the help of the Blue Star, aren't we bringing the <Ghost Domain> version ahead of schedule? My abilities, your foresight, and the authority of the Blue Star —what a perfect combination!"
Xiao Fan shrugged, deliberately feigning a naive and blindly confident demeanor.
The sight made Luo Yi's vision go black.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
He was overjoyed to learn that the famous Jiu Chen was Wanderer just like him, but now he's utterly speechless.
Jiu Chen is both strong and capable. If the two of them join forces, they can definitely return to their hometown in the Ranked Match version.
But he never expected that Jiu Chen would be so arrogant and blindly confident.
This completely disrupted the plan!
If only he hadn't taken that precaution and had told Jiu Chen everything.
Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. Jiu Chen's gaming skills are so strong; if he didn't have personality flaws, how could he have ended up on Blue Star?
Sigh, it's too late to understand now.
"Jiu Chen, do you know that once the Ranked Match begins, all the planets invaded by the Cloud Sea will be competitors? We've been on Blue Star for so long and know everything about this place. Do you think Zhou He will let us leave then?"
Luo Yi sighed inwardly as he spoke.
After the <Ghost Domain> version arrives, we will have to wait three years to enter the Ranked Match version.
At that time, all the planets invaded by the <Cloud Sea> will be able to communicate with each other, and they can take advantage of the Ranked Match matches to leave Blue Star and return to their own planets.
But now...
They only have one chance left!
That means we absolutely cannot tell Zhou He and the others the purpose of the game's Ranked Match.
At this moment, Xiao Fan spoke up, his tone tinged with doubt.
"What's going on with that Ranked Match? Tell me."
Luo Yi glanced at him, but didn't hide anything.
He believed that as long as Xiao Fan knew about the Ranked Match, he would definitely stand on his side.
Their identities destined them to be natural teammates.
Judging from Luo Yi's expression, Xiao Fan originally thought he was about to reveal some shocking truth, but what he said next was...
"I don't know the specifics about the Ranked Match."
Xiao Fan:...
None of them are reliable!
All I know is that after the Ranked Match mode is released, the top 100 players on the Combat Power Leaderboard can enter Ranked Match and compete against players from all over the world.
"After the match, some players will gain Points, while others will lose Points."
At the end of each season, the planets with the Points receive rewards, while the planets with the lowest Points are penalized.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan understood.
This is a classic game competitive mode, but in <Cloud Sea>, it involves the player's planet, so the penalties and rewards are a bit more significant.
Xiao Fan nodded. "I see."
Luo Yi sneered, "Now you regret revealing our identities to the people of Blue Star? Heh~ Too late!"
Xiao Fan:...
That's strange, did he say he regretted it?
Oh well, as long as he's happy.
"I'd like to know what the planet's so-called rewards and punishments are after the season ends?"
Only by understanding punishment and reward can one truly grasp the meaning behind the "Cloud Sea".
Luo Yi was taken aback, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
"I don't know about that. I only know the game rules from the Ranked Match description. I ended up on Blue Star before the season ended, so how would I know about the rewards and penalties?"
"However! None of that matters. All you need to know is that once the Ranked Match begin, all planets will be in competition with each other."
Xiao Fan was speechless, feeling that this person didn't seem very smart.
That's true. If he were truly intelligent, how could he have ended up on Blue Star and still not realize that he was being lied to?
They both secretly disliked each other.
Luo Yi seemed to realize he had gone a bit too far, and quickly spoke up.
"Alright, we don't have much time left. If we talk for too long, they might get suspicious. Just listen to me now, and I guarantee we'll be able to get back to our planet safely once the ranked patch comes out, okay?"
"Alright," Xiao Fan nodded in agreement.
"I will tell Zhou He and the others about the content and Talent System of the <Ghost Domain> version to gain their trust."
"Then I told them I was relegated to Blue Star right at the start of Ranked Match, and I didn't know anything else."
"All you need to do is keep the Ranked Match a secret, understand?"
Actually, Luo Yi's willingness to help Xiao Fan leave Blue Star was also driven by ulterior motives.
Only the top 100 players on the Combat Power Leaderboard can participate in Ranked Match. Although he knows more than the players on Blue Star, his gaming talent isn't particularly high.
He himself was not confident that he could make it into the top 100 of the Combat Power Leaderboard.
He needed some help, and Xiao Fan was exactly the kind of person who could help him with that.
In the next room.
Zhou He and Jian Qingfeng watched the monitor, but they couldn't hear Xiao Fan and Luo Yi's conversation.
"He must have used a shielding skill," Jian Qingfeng guessed.
Zhou He agreed, saying, "I don't know what he said to Xiao Fan; he was afraid we would overhear."
"We'll find out by asking Xiao Fan after it's over."
Just then, Luo Yi on the screen made a gesture towards them.
"Looks like they've finished talking. Let's go in."
Zhou He was not surprised that Luo Yi knew they were listening in and monitoring them.
Everyone knows the truth.
