Puppet Tomb

A strange power surged through him, and when Xiao Fan opened his eyes again, he felt some changes in his body.

At this moment, his body was no longer his own, but Archer Puppet created by Jian Qingfeng.

"That's kind of amazing."

Xiao Fan shifted slightly and couldn't help but sigh.

There was no discomfort or sense of detachment; the method of manipulating the Puppet was so skillful that it was as if they were the Puppet.

When Jian Qingfeng talked about it before, Xiao Fan felt that the Archer Puppet quite strong in terms of both skills and equipment.

Wow! That's amazing!

"Hahaha, I can finally be the censored version of Lord Qingfeng."

Brother Heartless and Na Youshang, who were standing to the side, seemed to have just realized what was happening and were now shouting excitedly.

"The abridged version of Jian Qingfeng..."

Xiao Fan found it somewhat amusing.

He was just about to test the feel of the Puppet when the familiar mechanical sound echoed all around him once again.

"Now we will begin announcing the rules of the Puppet competition."

Upon hearing this, the twenty player Puppet present immediately became serious.

"This competition is a 5V5 battle mode, and players will be teleported to the competition-specific map - Puppet Tomb."

The map is divided into two battle lines: the top lane and the bottom lane. Each lane has four elevators, which can be used by embedding Soul Crystal.

The wilderness is filled with resource Puppet, traps, and Soul Crystal.

At the start of the game, each Puppet player can choose one exclusive skill from two options: seal or revive.

The seal can seal away players who have been killed.

Reviving can free players who have been sealed away.

The main hall of the Puppet Tomb is located at the top of the map, and there are five Seal Coffin inside the main hall.

Defeating the Puppet allows the opposing player to use the elevator to seal it in the Seal Coffin in the main hall.

Players on your own side can also go to the main hall to revive the sealed Puppet players.

During the competition, you can kill wild Puppet monsters along the way to upgrade your Puppet's skills and Puppet.

The battle lasts for twenty hours, and the side with the fewest Puppet players sealed in the main hall at the end wins.

Xiao Fan:...

There's a swear word I'm not sure if I should say!

"I ¥@#%&$..."

I thought the existence of Chen Xuewei and Shen Beiwu was already troublesome enough, but I didn't expect there to be something even more troublesome here.

Xiao Fan's brow remained furrowed ever since he heard the rule.

It's not fair to say there's anything wrong with the competition rules.

But!

This is a match that absolutely requires teamwork!

He originally thought he would definitely win if he played well, but after this rule was introduced, even Xiao Fan himself was unsure.

Especially when you can only choose one of the two skills, resurrection and sealing.

If he chooses to seal them, and if Na Youshang and Brother Heartless are sealed by the other party, he will have to fight alone.

If he chooses to revive, he can't seal the player, thus losing control.

Difficult! Extremely difficult!

A true 3v7.

It wasn't just Xiao Fan who was having a headache; Jian Qingfeng, Zhou He, and the observers from the Dragon Nation were also having a headache after seeing this rule.

It's too complicated!

The rules and gameplay alone are enough to keep them studying for a whole day.

One day later, the competition was over.

Fortunately, Jiu Chen was among the contestants this time.

That's all everyone could think.

Only Zhou He looked worried; he knew about the grudges between Xiao Fan, Chen Xuewei, and Shen Beiwu.

The rules of this competition clearly indicate that it requires perfect teamwork among five people.

"Sigh, with these two around, I wonder if Jiu Chen can win." Zhou He sighed, looking at the Sky Screen.

The moment the rules were announced, twenty silver teleportation arrays suddenly lit up on the table where Xiao Fan was.

The light enveloped the twenty player Puppet, causing the ground beneath their feet to tremble slightly.

"Three seconds left, about to be teleported to the competition."

3.

2.

1.

The 5v5 Puppet Battle mode has officially begun.

Dragon Nation VS Black Nation

Mirror City VS White Nation

A burst of white light suddenly erupted, and the blinding halo instantly engulfed the figures of the ten Puppet players.

The next second, the sound of the wind beside my ears changed abruptly.

Xiao Fan appeared in the Puppet Tomb, a map used in the competition.

Wild grass grew rampant underfoot, the gray sky hung low and oppressive, and an ancient and majestic palace stood tall overhead.

That's the most important part of this competition.

The sealing tube for the player who sealed the Puppet is inside.

Five Seal Coffin, twenty hours. The server with the most sealed players will fail.

The countdown is still ahead, and it's already starting to tick.

Please select your skill level for this match.

"1: Seal 2: Resurrection"

The selection page appeared in front of Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan pondered for a moment.

1.

He still prefers to dominate the game.

Offense is also defense.

"Selection complete. Your skill for this match is Seal. The battle has begun. Good luck!"

Just as Xiao Fan finished making his choice, he heard Qian Chang, Na Youshang, bewildered, and Fa Chou weak voice from the side.

"Hey! Did you all understand the rules of the game? I listened for ages and I'm totally confused. Did anyone understand? Could you explain it to me? Otherwise, I really don't know how to play!"

"You didn't understand either? Oh no! Oh no! I didn't understand either. I was going to ask you guys. Good heavens, isn't a 5v5 duel enough? Why make it so complicated?"

The one speaking was Brother Heartless, and his voice was equally anxious.

Xiao Fan's anxiety finally died!

These are his teammates in this game; it's truly disheartening.

Shen Beiwu glanced at the two of them, then looked at Xiao Fan, and seeing his lifeless expression, a cold smile appeared on his lips.

Finally, Shen Beiwu's gaze fell upon Chen Xuewei.

Want to come together?

Chen Xuewei paused for a second, then nodded expressionlessly.

The two then left the group.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Where are you two going? Didn't you hear the system say this is a 5v5 game? The five of us should be together. You left without a word, how are the three of us supposed to play?"

Brother Heartless didn't recognize Shen Beiwu and Chen Xuewei. Seeing the two leave without saying a word, he anxiously called out to them.

Chen and Shen left without turning their heads after hearing the shout.

Seeing this, the Brother Heartless jumped up and down in anger.

"Who are these two? This is a server fusion competition! If we lose, our Dragon Nation's servers will be gone!"

"That's outrageous! They have absolutely no patriotism! Even the players watching the livestream are acting so arrogantly. Next time I encounter these two in the game, I'll give them a piece of my mind!"

After cursing for a while and seeing that neither of them paid any attention to him, Brother Heartless sighed and looked at Xiao Fan.

"Great God Jiu Chen, both of them are gone, what do we do now?"

Xiao Fan looked at the two clear-headed players, Na Youshang and Brother Heartless, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

"It's not a big problem. You just need to follow my orders from now on."

The two nodded repeatedly.

We will definitely obey.

Xiao Fan was fairly satisfied with their attitude.

"By the way, what are the exclusive skills you chose for the competition?"

Xiao Fan asked.

The two exclaimed in unison, "Resurrect!"

Xiao Fan's fist clenched slightly.

"That's resurrection! In <Cloud Sea>, I don't have the resurrection skill, so having it in the competition would be great."

"Brother Heartless chuckled."

Xiao Fan:...

Are these two skills the same thing?

Garlic Bird, Garlic Bird, if you're going to be resurrected, then be resurrected.

Xiao Fan resigned himself to his fate and set off with the two of them.

On the other side, Shen Beiwu and Chen Xuewei stopped after walking for a while.

Shen Beiwu turned around.

"When choosing the Puppet, why did you choose the healer and give the Archer to Jiu Chen?"

Shen Beiwu's questioning made Chen Xuewei very unhappy. She frowned slightly, but finally spoke up to explain.

"Jiu Chen's healing is amazing, and besides, I chose the only treatment option for him, isn't that great?"

Shen Beiwu was taken aback.

That's a valid way of thinking.

Forget it, let's not dwell on this anymore.

"I know about your hatred for Jiu Chen, and I think you should know how to handle this match."

The broadcast was live, Shen Beiwu didn't dare to be too direct.

Chen Xuewei understood what he meant and nodded.

"Knew."
