Chapter 204 - Darkness Invasion And Endless Wars!
Chapter 204 Darkness Invasion And Endless Wars!
It was the last 10 days of version 1.0.
More and more dark creatures had started appearing, but the players did not feel a sense of urgency.
They knew that the dark creatures were going to be their enemies in version 2.0. But they were only a little surprised. Some of them even thought that it was not a big deal.
It was because the combat power of the dark creatures was generally inferior.
But the players had only encountered Beginner-level dark creatures. The Intermediate dark creatures were few in number.
Besides…
The global league of ‘Gods’ had started!
As there were no promotions for the game version 1.0, not many clubs participated in the game. Only 32 clubs took part in the league tournament.
The Chinese only had three pitiful clubs.
They were the Glory Club, Prosperity Millennium Club, and the Heavenly King Club from the Black Lava Dukedom.
How could they compete when they were not on the same continent?
It was simple.
The tournament location was in Shanghai. When the players entered their custom-made gaming capsules, they would appear in a special region.
The forum was abuzz with information regarding the professional league tournament.
And the commentary on the capabilities of the various clubs.
William only glanced through the information. He did not have time to watch any tournament. Everyone was intrinsically different. As an Advanced Legendary BOSS, he had to maintain his public image. Nobody knew that he could browse the forum.
William was not interested in watching any tournament.
William was a Chinese, so when Changli Jiuge asked if the clubs could rent equipment, William agreed without hesitation.
As such, the members of Glory Club and Prosperity Millennium Club had Epic equipment when they participated in the tournament.
The world league tournament was not the same as the common God of War ranking competition.
The world league tournament required the club participants to be at their peak performance when competing in the tournament!
It could be said that unless they spent an outrageous amount of money, none of the clubs had the ability to afford Epic equipment for all their members.
But the clubs of the City of Dawn were different. They had an outstanding sponsor.
Changli Jiuge and the other players did not expect William to agree to loan out the Epic equipment.
Therefore, William became the idol of the Chinese players. Within a short time, he garnered 200,000 fans, of which 50% were ladies.
A player created a sub-forum for William on the official forum.
There were lifestyle and wartime pictures of William in the sub-forum. These pictures showed the godly charm of William. Occasionally, there would be smiling, doubtful, or befuddled expressions in the pictures. They were the photographs taken by the fans, some of them, taken in secret…
William’s popularity on the ‘Gods’ continent skyrocketed. He was getting more and more charming!
William admired his pictures in the forum posts. He wondered how many ladies would cry their hearts out for him…
But his actions also caused fury to erupt from the players from other nations. They relentlessly complained against him.
But the officials of ‘Gods’ were nonchalant, and they completely ignored the complaints.
However, this was the actual situation.
The game officials were helpless. They could not interfere with the operation of the game intelligence.
The game officials had given the players absolute freedom, so they could not do anything
Time was counting down to the Darkness invasion.
Ten days to the invasion!
The number of Devil’s Dens continued to increase. Their numbers had reached 50.
The Chinese clubs won in their first battles.
As there were not many clubs, every participant had to fight four rounds. The top 16 clubs with the highest number of victories would proceed to the next segment.
Nine days to the invasion!
The number of Devil’s Dens continued to increase. The population of the dark creatures breached the threshold of 200,000.
The Glory Club and Prosperity Millennium Club obtained their second consecutive victories. The Heavenly King Club lost to the American Club.
Eight days to the invasion!
William deployed his reserve legions to Stormy Island. One legion was deployed at the copper mine, while the remaining 11 legions returned to the City of Dawn. Two legions were dispatched from the City of Dawn to the Light Fortress.
The player did not feel a sense of danger. They daily held heated discussions on the forum.
It was because the Glory Club and the Prosperity Millennium Club had obtained three consecutive victories while Heavenly King Club had two victories and a defeat!
Seven days to the invasion!
The City of Dawn was normal, but the anticipation of the impending invasion became more intense.
The players felt something was amiss, but they did not continue to bother about it.
It was because the Glory Club and the Prosperity Millennium Club had obtained their fourth consecutive victories and became part of the top 16 clubs. Similarly, the Heavenly King Club proceeded to the next segment with three victories and one defeat.
Six days to the invasion!
Five days…
Four days…
Three days…
The world league tournament of version 1.0 officially ended.
The Glory Club was crowned the top club in the world!
Chu Liuqiu and his team members carried the first gold trophy cup of ‘Gods’!
The elite American team was the first runners-up.
The African team clinched the third position.
As for the Prosperity Millennium Club, they had gained the fourth position…
The Heavenly King Club could only obtain the eighth position.
The results of the tournament boosted the morale of the Chinese players!
Besides Glory Club and Prosperity Millennium Club that had Epic equipment, many clubs from different nations also had the same equipment…
The Chinese audience was enthralled by the close fights in the tournament. However, Chu Liuqiu managed to achieve the final victory and brought the trophy back to China.
Meanwhile, the professional league of ‘Gods’ helped to promote the game.
Although the equipment was very important in the game, the crux lay in the incredible combination of skills, cumulative power of dual occupations, and the unpredictable battle tactics.
The game allowed the players to dig for soil, cut down trees, and make traps even if they were not hunters. The game allowed the players to achieve what they could do in real
life.
There were no limitations!
Well, except for the function of making love.
The professionals fully exhibited their prowesses in the different tournament scenarios.
The ultra-realistic game with unlimited freedom attracted the attention of professional competitors and players…
Some players opined that the game was too hardcore, so it would not be fun.
It was the last day of version 1.0
Chu Liuqiu and his members carried the trophy back to their club.
While all the players were cheering,
William was silently sitting on the ramparts. He swung both his feet casually as he surveyed the dark creatures that were approaching the base of the cliff. He was emotionless.
The City of Dawn, it was a city that never slept.
It was twelve midnight.
A bell chimed softly.
Version 1.0 had ended.
The game upgraded to Version 2.0 without going offline…
It was the invasion of Darkness!
All the players around the world saw the notice.
The Chinese players were celebrating their victory amidst the version upgrade.
The piercing screams filled the ears of all the players.
Dark clouds gathered and engulfed the three huge moons.
Countless Devil’s Dens appeared at the nine beginner’s villages on the continent.
At the grass plain between the City of Dawn and Black Lava Dukedom,
100 additional Devil’s Dens appeared. Numerous dark creatures roared as they charged out.
The players who were still in celebratory mood curiously walked to the edge of the city walls.
They saw countless dark creatures that charged forth like a dark tsunami.
William stood up slowly and floated in the air. He unsheathed a long narrow Thunderblade and pointed it forward as he shouted loudly, “The City of Dawn, prepare for battle!”
“Prepare for battle!” The ten legions shouted in unison as they marched out!
“Prepare for battle!” Numerous professionals in the city chanted in unison!
“Prepare for battle!!!” The Light Fortress that was located 30 miles east of the city, emitted brilliant light!
When Darkness invaded, there were only… endless bloody wars.
