Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start - Chapter 472

Chapter 472: 471, [Illusion Duel] (Twelve): The Final Showdown Begins _1

After selecting his reward, Su Yu was teleported out of the Illusion sub-dungeon and back to the Mage Tower in his territory.

Checking the time, it was now 10:45 p.m.

The next round, which would also be the final round of the duel, would begin at 11:30.

That is to say, there are only 45 minutes of rest time.

Before Su Yu could even consider what to do in these 45 minutes, a private message from Sky Dragon appeared: “Nemesis, have you left yet?”

Su Yu answered: “Yes.”

Sky Dragon: “How did you do?”

Su Yu: “Obviously, I’m the first, how about you?”

Sky Dragon: “Of course, I’m also the first, but it was quite a struggle…”

Sky Dragon: “I won’t go into detail, but I’ll be participating in the resurrection match in 5 minutes. See you at the finals!”

Su Yu: “See you at the finals!”

…

After finishing the chat with Sky Dragon, Su Yu activated the Mana Pool to continue refining materials for cultivation, completely immersed in the process.

Bernina, on the other hand, was lying beside Su Yu, hugging her crystal stone and absorbing energy, storing up power for her future breakthrough.

Only after the completion of a cultivation cycle at 11:25 did Su Yu open his eyes and exhale.

He rubbed Bernina’s little head: “No more cultivation, we have to participate in the final round of the duel in 5 minutes.”

He was very satisfied with the rewards from the previous round, so he had to work hard in this round to win even better rewards!

“Meow?” Bernina mewled in a daze, as if she’d just been woken up from a deep sleep.

But she quickly came to her senses and jumped onto Su Yu’s shoulder.

Worth mentioning is that Bernina particularly liked standing on Su Yu’s shoulder, as if treating it like her own cat nest.

Su Yu patted Bernina’s back, opened the chat interface to see what the guild were discussing in the final five minutes.

But as soon he opened the chat, he saw a private message from Sky Dragon.

The message was a single invitation, inviting him to join a chat channel called [China United Front].

Su Yu was intrigued and clicked to join the chat channel.

Upon entering, the game announced: “Player [Nemesis] has joined this channel.”

The channel instantly became busy:

“Hello, Boss Ke!”

“Boss Ke, you’ve finally arrived!”

“Welcome, Boss Ke!”

…

Similar greetings appeared five or six dozen times at once.

Su Yu was somewhat astounded, there are so many people in this chat channel!

Looking at the online count of the chat channel, good heavens! There were actually 1236 people! No wonder there were so many greeting messages.

Su Yu asked in the channel: “So, what’s this channel for?”

Sky Dragon was the first to respond: “Everyone in this channel is eligible to participate in the final round of the duel.”

Sky Dragon: “The reason for forming this channel is that our enemies this time are not only each other, but also foreign players.”

Sky Dragon: “Someone initiated the formation of this chat channel in order to organise a united front to unite all Chinese players, to eliminate all foreign players in the final round of the duel, and then each can show their skills to win the final championship.”

Sky Dragon: “According to the previous rounds, the longer you survive and the more you kill in the Illusion, the better the rewards you’ll get. So everyone is willing to join the united front.”

Su Yu: “Oh, I see.”

Su Yu: “There are over 1200 people in the chat channel now. The number of Chinese players advancing to the final round should be more than this, right?”

Sky Dragon: “This is…”

Apparently, she wasn’t very clear on this topic.

Shepherd in the Clouds, who had been observing quietly, replied instead: “Of course, there are more.”

Shepherd in the Clouds: “The number of players participating in the Illusion Duel is about 2 billion, and just over 2000+ players have made it through three rounds of selection into the winners’ group, with approximately 2000+ more in the losers’ group.”

Shepherd in the Clouds: “Overall, Chinese players’ level and gaming experience are far above the foreign average. I estimate that approximately 2000 Chinese players advanced to the final round.”

Su Yu: “Shepherd, so you’re here too.”

Shepherd in the Clouds: “??? Do you think my strength isn’t enough to be among this one in two thousand, Nemesis? [Crying emoji]”

Su Yu: “Of course not, what I meant is… there are only about 1200 people in the channel now, is five minutes enough to inform all Chinese players about this?”

Shepherd in the Clouds: “Of course, there will inevitably be some omissions.”

Shepherd in the Clouds: “So everyone, if you meet a player speaking Mandarin in the game, try your best to persuade them to unite!”

“Understood.”

“Okay.”

“Got it.”

A string of responses followed.

…

Unconsciously, three minutes had passed.

In the final minute before the start of the Illusion, Shepherd in the Clouds said in the channel: “Everyone, listen up, let me confirm the contact code once more for the United Front inside the Illusion. The code is ‘The Azure sky is dead, the Yellow sky shall rise’, anyone saying this code can be 100% confirmed as one of us!”

“Understood!”

“Okay.”

Su Yu slightly twitched at the corner of his mouth when he heard this code. What kind of code is this? Were they deliberately setting him up?

But before Su Yu had a chance to say anything, the countdown for the Illusion Duel began.

After the countdown ended, his consciousness was pulled into the Illusion Duel space.

With Su Yu’s vision flickering, his consciousness arrived in the grey space a second later.

In the mid-air directly ahead of the space was a transparent notice board that showed the characters “2200/4110” with the “2200” number continuously increasing.

Once the board changed to “4110/4110”, the final round officially began!

At the same time, the soft voice of Bernina sounded in his ear.

“Welcome to the final round of Illusion Duel.”

“In this round, you will play the role of a commander who has 325 soldiers, these soldiers are composed of 150 infantry, 75 longbowmen, 50 cavalrymen, 30 priests and 20 mages…”

“There are three types of buildings on the map: [Outposts], [Gold Mines] and [Mercenary Camps]…”

Listening to Bernina’s detailed explanation of the game rules, an odd expression gradually appeared on Su Yu’s face.

The rules of the final round were extremely similar to those of his previous duel!

Although thinking about it, this didn’t seem too strange.

After all, according to typical competition rules, the champion of the winners’ group always has some advantages over the champion of the losers’ group.

It appeared that in the Illusion Duel, the advantage for players who came out of the winners’ group was a prior experience of this kind of gameplay. They were more familiar with the rules, which gave them a head start.

However, it couldn’t be said that the rules for this round were completely identical to the last round.

Firstly, the troops given in this round were only a tenth of those in the last round. After players entered the map, they would need mercenaries to fight, and the troops they brought could only act as auxiliary support.

Secondly, according to the latest rules, if a player eliminated another player, they would receive at least 2000 gold coins as a reward. The more high-ranking enemy troops they killed, the more gold coins they would get. This encouraged players to fight more instead of simply hiding from enemies.

This would require players to judge the situation and form strategies according to their circumstances, in order to win in this competition.
