116. Backdooring? / 117. A Perfect Finale

Is it the snow lotus blooming in the wind, the bright moon shining its light, or the vast sword intent forged by ten years of hardship?

Ling Feng was previously unsure whether he could use the Astral Mark Girl's exclusive sword technique in SK.

After all, this is a highly difficult maneuver requiring extreme attention to detail. It would be impossible to achieve without a thorough understanding of the game and a complete grasp of the character's mechanics.

At first glance, it seemed that Ling Feng only swung one slash, but it contained three combinations: Horizontal Slash, Diagonal Slash, and Severing Scar.

Each of these rays is different in sharpness, power, and element. When they all overlap, their destructive power multiplies several times over. The rainbow-like light stream, like starlight, can obliterate everything.

At the same time, Chen Kai saw his computer screen ripped open by a beam of colored light, and his HP value instantly dropped to 0. Looking at this scene, he was incredulous, as if he couldn't believe it was all real.

Even the audience members in the stands, upon seeing the scene playing on the giant screen, were all stunned, frozen, and breathless, their eyes wide with astonishment.

What kind of operation is this??

Did anyone see what the amazing player Duskfall did?

Just as the audience was still in a daze, Ling Feng was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but the next second, his computer screen went black.

[Error warning! System error! System error!]

Meanwhile, people in the audience could also see Ling Feng's appearance at this moment. What was going on?

Did they cheat??

Upon hearing the voice from the side, even Chen Kai, who was still in a daze, couldn't help but raise his head.

In professional matches, there are staff monitoring you from behind; how could you possibly have the opportunity to cheat?

"Holy crap, Ling Feng, what the hell are you doing?" Zhao Ping was the first to react, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Su Yun and the others were also a bit confused, but Ling Feng himself was even more speechless, because he had no idea what had happened either.

It's just trying out a skill, why is there a system error? But cheating would result in an immediate account ban and a suspected cheating warning, right?

Although the scene was chaotic for a moment, fortunately, the staff promptly reported it to the organizers, who quickly took appropriate measures and provided feedback.

However, to everyone's surprise...

The reason for this system error was that Ling Feng's actions were too extreme, exceeding SK's operational limits and causing the system's calculations to crash?!

Upon learning the truth, the audience gasped in shock; it was utterly appalling.

Look at this, is this something a human could do? Anyone who knows how difficult SK is to operate knows that this is absolutely not something a human could do!

This is absolutely outrageous!!

But what kind of operation could even SK Esports PCs not calculate?

Most people at the scene only remember a rainbow-like sword mark that swept across the large screen, splitting it in the middle like a diagonal line.

It seems there aren't such dazzling skills even in the Chronicles of Time and Space. Even if you created one yourself, how could it have so many colors? Aren't they all single-colored?

"Awesome! Duskfall is awesome!"

"Stop shouting! Stop shouting! I feel like even the word 'awesome' is an insult to the master."

"Oops, I accidentally recorded it again! This is the live version, no discounts, 500 per copy!"

"Holy crap?! Is it that dark?"

"Hey, just tell me, are you going to buy it or not?"

"Okay, okay, scan the code."

Right now, whether they're in the audience or watching the live broadcast, everyone is incredibly excited.

They seemed to be witnessing a legend, or rather, he was a legend in himself, just recreating one.

After all, there's only one player who can cause the system to malfunction and crash during a professional match, and now he's the center of attention.

There was a brief hiccup, but everyone knew the game wasn't over yet...

(Thank you so much, Liudao Zhongzhi and Xia Weiyin...<humble>)

Chapter 116 Stealing a Home?

Because of the problems Ling Feng had encountered earlier, he was unable to rush to provide support.

This plan was already difficult to implement, and with the added influence of various factors, it was destined to fail; there simply wasn't enough time left.

In fact, many viewers have already noticed this and can't help but feel a little regretful, since Ling Feng and his group's purpose is now quite clear.

If the core of the central platform is destroyed using the Hydrogen Source, the entire map will collapse within five seconds, causing spacetime to crumble and plunging into endless darkness.

Yes, it's a draw.

Winning would be extremely difficult; the disparity in strength between the two sides is vast. Ling Feng can't possibly fight five opponents alone. Trying to defeat five computers with only one computer is practically suicide.

Even if you could actually fight, the limitations of the computer and the game wouldn't allow it. When your combat awareness exceeds the limits of your controls, pushing your limits to the limit, and you've already anticipated and prepared three actions, the game character still can't keep up with your actions.

So it's useless.

Against weaker opponents, one could indeed take on five, but for now... forget it...

Although Chen Kai had already died in battle, he was aware of the problems that Ling Feng and the others had encountered.

To be honest, he really admired Ling Feng. This person who could control someone to the point of breaking the system's limitations was simply a monster.

It was as if he were in the game, controlling his body with ease, giving the impression that he operated it without any pauses or discomfort, just like controlling his own body.

Unbelievable...

Then, while Ling Feng was still lamenting and his brain hadn't reacted yet, a void suddenly appeared in the game and kept expanding without any sign of stopping.

Holy crap?

Before I could even react, four striking characters appeared on the screen: "Peace and Prosperity Throughout the World".

"This is..."

"It worked?"

This was the first thing Ling Feng thought of, but then he realized it didn't make sense. He hadn't even had time to go yet; how could they use the Hydrogen Source when one person was missing?

Just as Ling Feng was considering some possibilities, a strange laugh suddenly rang out beside him.

"Huh?!"

"Didn't expect that, did you??"

"In the end, we still have to rely on you, Brother Ping!"

Ling Feng turned his head and saw Zhao Ping wave his hand, raise his head proudly and contentedly, his face full of pride.

Now the doubts in my heart were no longer obvious.

"Sure, you're great."

Su Xiaoxiao originally thought the plan was going to fail, but Zhao Ping suddenly attacked from behind the enemy's base, causing chaos in the enemy's ranks.

So what exactly happened?

The audience was equally puzzled, because they had been focusing most of their attention on Ling Feng's battle, so very few people had noticed what was happening elsewhere.

Now, let's take a look at the replay of what just happened.

Chen Kai's eyes widened in disbelief; he himself was completely oblivious. Wasn't this a dead end?!

Is this a miracle?!

Ghost!!

On the large screen, the player on Chen Kai's team defending A Avenue heard the call and, knowing that Chen Kai had also been killed, he quickly returned to defend.

But he didn't expect that Zhao Ping hadn't left yet; he was just hiding behind the wall because of the remaining blood.

When they arrived at A lane and found it deserted, Zhao Ping suddenly jumped out again, stealing directly from A lane to their house, taking down three people in one fell swoop.

That's too sneaky...

Come on, think about it again. You've already stolen three of their kills; you could have easily won the game by teaming up. Why did you still go and bomb the central platform?!

Holy crap?!

Now that the truth is clear, not only are the people in the audience speechless, but even Ling Feng, Yuwen, Su Xiaoxiao, and Su Yun are speechless in the face of Zhao Ping.

What were you just saying? That we still need you?

That's right, without you, we basically lost.

But you're already winning, why would you detonate it?

It's even more painful than losing! o(╥╥)o

They stole from this place, but it's like they didn't steal anything at all.

These are probably the words Ling Feng and his friends most want to say to Zhao Ping right now.

This is fucking...

I'm speechless.

"Oh, well, I saw you all had the magic circle ready, so I thought you wanted that... so..."

At this point, Zhao Ping offered a somewhat embarrassed excuse.

Damn, this is so embarrassing. There are already quite a few people on stage laughing at us, but those who support Ling Feng and his team feel inexplicably aggrieved.

"Damn it! What's wrong with Duskfall's teammate? They were about to win!" At this moment, a young man who was recording a video on his phone cursed.

"I'm speechless, okay? To have teammates like this, I'll feel sorry for Duskfall for three seconds. (つд?)"

There's a saying, "It's not the god-like opponents you should fear, it's the pig-like teammates!"

"Hahaha, that's hilarious! Is the other side trying to be funny? (?.? v?.`) I didn't even notice him! Oh my god~"

"Sigh~ The world is so big, there are all sorts of wonders."

"It looks like it's a tie. What do we do now? We can't possibly have another match, can we?" a new player asked, puzzled, from a corner.

"Is this your first time watching a professional match? If it's a tie, we'll move on to the one-on-one round. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a 1v1 duel between Kai God and Duskfall. But you saw the result of the match just now; Duskfall's individual skill is unparalleled, and winning this championship should be a foregone conclusion."

Chapter 117 A Perfect Ending

SK can be considered the number one game in the gaming world right now. Its popularity is so great that almost anyone who plays video games has heard of it; it's a household name.

Right now, the official live stream for the Winter Tournament is attracting nearly ten million viewers, and that's just the current number.

Its status is obvious; even Pesticide and OLO weren't as powerful as it used to be.

The match footage had already caused a frenzy in the live stream, with people going crazy and praising it. I heard there are still people rushing here now, which is ridiculous.

At this moment, Ling Feng was already preparing to continue the battle with the confident top player on the opposing team, but for some unknown reason, the LD Team actually forfeited!

As for Chen Kai's team forfeiting the rest of the match, most people didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, their strength was undeniable, and they couldn't just knowingly play against a team they couldn't win.

That is a lack of self-awareness. A person who truly knows themselves cannot help but be humble.

Humility shrinks one's heart, making it like a small pebble—small yet extremely solid; only solidity leads to honesty.

"You're quite good, but that's only temporary. When we meet again, I'll definitely defeat you fair and square!"

Even after losing the match, Chen Kai remained confident and optimistic, showing no signs of negativity due to the defeat.

In response to the confident and easygoing attitude of this top player, Ling Feng merely shook his outstretched hand symbolically.

"Fine, whatever you say."

Ling Feng smiled Qianqian, turned around, and greeted his teammates.

It's over. Isn't this the result we wanted?
