Breaking the Record
Within the Escape Game.
Qin Muyu was practically being carried by Xiao Fan as they ran; she was completely exhausted, and her legs felt as heavy as lead.
Xiao Fan wasn't in much better shape.
Although his stamina and agility were good, he was exhausted after running for so long, not to mention he was dragging Qin Muyu along with him.
He did have a recovery skill, but the Black Fog behind him was spreading so fast that he didn't have time to use it.
He's only managed to hold on until now thanks to his precious wings.
However, this game has limitations; he cannot fly directly on the road and can only rely on short-duration flight to avoid road obstacles.
This is also why he has been able to hold on with Qin Muyu until now.
"I can't... I really can't run anymore."
Qin Muyu felt like she was about to run herself to death.
"No, you can do it, you can run again."
Qin Muyu:...
Am I really going to die today?
A dark aura emanated from behind.
It was clear that the Black Fog was spreading faster than before.
Xiao Fan's heart sank; he and Qin Muyu were about to collapse.
The Black Fog was moving much faster than they could run.
The two have been able to hold on until now thanks to two factors: skill acceleration and item acceleration.
Moreover, each time the Black Fog accelerates, the road conditions become even worse.
"One last sprint."
Feeling the chill creeping closer behind him, Xiao Fan gritted his teeth, his eyes resolute.
Skill acceleration activated.
A fierce gust of wind suddenly swept over her, and Qin Muyu felt a tremendous force pull her firmly back.
His body suddenly soared into the air, then slammed heavily to the ground. In an instant, he soared into the air again and crashed to the ground, rising and falling alternately, leaving behind many afterimages.
With his extreme explosive power unleashed, Xiao Fan's speed was pushed to its peak in an instant, and everything around him seemed to turn into a blurry shadow.
Fast! Too fast!
Just as the skill's acceleration was about to end, Xiao Fan took flight again and then used all his strength to throw Qin Muyu forward onto the road.
Well, going further means Points more points.
"Soul Piercer, I did my best. Good luck."
The next second, the Black Fog behind him engulfed Xiao Fan.
"The game is over. Players can call the system to view their rewards."
Xiao Fan exited the game with satisfaction.
Looking down at the road full of iron spikes, Qin Muyu in the air kept thinking about what she had done to offend Xiao Fan.
After the Black Fog accelerated one last time, the road was covered with iron spikes.
If Xiao Fan had thrown her like that, she would probably have been riddled with holes if she had fallen.
"That brat Jiu Chen has ruined me!"
Qin Muyu really felt it wasn't worth dying for such a small distance.
But the system voice sounded the moment she landed.
Congratulations to the player who has broken the game's highest record!
I jolted awake from my deathbed dream!
Seeing that she was about to land, Qin Muyu immediately activated her ultimate survival skill, which made her immune to being targeted and damaged for five seconds.
The moment he landed, Qin Muyu dashed forward.
She's currently the new record holder in this game, so she needs to keep pushing forward and not let anyone else catch up.
After the skill took effect, Qin Muyu felt a sharp pain in her feet. She politely struggled for two steps before the Black Fog behind her caught up with her.
"The game is over. Players can call the system to view their rewards."
"Congratulations to the player for breaking the game's highest record! You have earned extra Points and rewards."
Qin Muyu: Hehe, Jiu Chen truly lives up to his reputation as my idol, he's too amazing!
Xiao Fan and Qin Muyu.
On the grass, the players were so bored they were almost asleep.
During this time, they tried two more games, but they couldn't figure them out, so they could only wait patiently for Xiao Fan to come out.
When Xiao Fan came out, he could even hear someone snoring.
He couldn't help but feel suspicious. He seemed to have told them there was a mini-game entrance before they entered the game, so why weren't they playing the game?
"Xiao Fan, you're finally out."
Xiao Yi's voice rang out, and everyone finally realized that Xiao Fan had exited the game. At that moment Qin Muyu was also kicked out of the game.
Qin Muyu: "How did you all know I became the record holder for this Escape Game?"
Xiao Fan, who was about to check his Points:????
Others:????
Qin Muyu: "It wasn't that amazing. I only broke the game record thanks to Jiu Chen's help."
Xiao Fan:...
In this Escape Game, Xiao Fan earned 260,000 Points, while Qin Muyu earned 490,000 Points.
Xiao Fan gleaned a piece of information from this: breaking game records would earn him higher Points.
Qin Muyu breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the Points.
With a guaranteed minimum of one million points, and having already accumulated 490,000 Points in the first game, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the exclusive rewards should be in hand.
In addition to the high number of Points, the two also received a considerable amount of rewards.
Attribute points, Core Power, and various materials and items.
Xiao Fan was laughing so hard his teeth almost disappeared. It really was a bonus Dungeon, so much fun!
Unfortunately, his condition didn't recover after he left the game.
To enter the next game, you need to recover your status.
While recovering, Xiao Fan explained the key points of the Escape Game to the team that was copying his homework.
Not long after Xiao Fan and his group entered the <Brave New World> Dungeon, a major event occurred in <Cloud Sea>.
System Announcement:
Dear players, Cloud Sea has been on this planet for ten years.
With the upcoming release of the new ranked version, the four major servers across the entire planet will officially begin interconnection and integration.
The Server Fusion Challenge will begin promptly at 9:00 AM tomorrow and will last for one week.
After the challenge concludes, the server ranked first on the Overall Ranking Points take control of this server fusion.
The relevant rules and detailed benefits have been sent via in-game mail. Please check your mail.
"Server convergence."
Inside Dragon City, after seeing the system announcement, all the important officials gathered together, and Luo Yi was also brought over.
"Didn't you say that the Ranked Match version wouldn't arrive for three years after the <Ghost Domain> version? The Ghost Domain version has only been out for a short time, so why is the system saying that the Ranked Match version is about to be released?"
Zhou He's sharp eyes turned to Luo Yi.
Luo Yi had been behaving well lately, and he thought he had resigned himself to his fate, but it turned out that this person had been deceiving them all along!
Luo Yi: My sir, I really didn't lie to you!
"I really didn't know our planet was updated like this. Maybe the game keeps changing, and there have been many updates before that were different from our planet's."
Luo Yi hurriedly explained, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
After the Ranked Match update, he can go home!
Upon hearing this, Zhou He remained silent for a long time.
Luo Yi really doesn't seem to have any reason to lie to them. Is the game constantly changing?
"And what about server merging? Why didn't you tell us about it before?"
Zhou He asked in a deep voice.
The four servers on Blue Star are all somewhat different.
Aside from some important system announcements being shared, most other announcements are not shared across the game servers, and even announcements are not shared Mirror City Server and other servers.
Why the sudden need for fusion?
Luo Yi was even more wronged.
"Our planet only has one server, how would I know about merging?"
Seeing that Luo Yi truly knew nothing, Zhou He finally let him go.
"Alright, let's look at the server fusion challenge."
