Chapter 235: Chapter 227: “The Extraterrestrial Event!
“Ding, global announcement!”
“Special limited event ‘The Founding of the Army Day’ is officially starting from August 1st to August 3rd, at 08:00 AM!”
“All players can participate in this event during these three days.”
“Event one: ‘Military Might Unstoppable!'”
“Crackle crackle crackle crackle crackle...”
The event announcement had only sounded halfway when it suddenly stopped abruptly, and a piercing noise began to sound as if a radio had suddenly developed a fault and stuck.
“Uh...”
Tuberculosis Rabbit was somewhat bewildered as he fiddled with his ears, nudging Sword Without End who was sitting beside him, “Did your event announcement finish playing?”
“Mine suddenly got stuck halfway through the announcement and turned into a piercing noise.”
“Even the event panel suddenly got covered with a mosaic.”
“I only had time to see that there were three activities in this special limited event, I hadn’t yet looked closely at what they were before it all got covered up by a mosaic.”
“Same here.”
Sword Without End also scratched his head in confusion, “I thought it was a bug on my end, I was about to contact customer service.”
“Could it be the same for everyone?”
The two exchanged glances, then simultaneously turned to look towards Chen Yi, who was lying on a lounge chair nearby.
Chen Yi lay there lazily with sunglasses on, casually lifting his hand to indicate that the same had happened to him.
If it was the same for all of them,
Then it wasn’t a problem specific to the three of them. Clearly, it was the same for everyone.
And at that moment—
Jiaye and Tie Chui pushed open the anti-theft door to the rooftop and came up, “Yi, we’ve checked the forums, and all players are experiencing the same thing. It’s been stuck for a minute now.”
“So far, there have been no changes.”
“The consensus on the forums is... it’s a bug.”
“After all, the Snow Sea Project Team doesn’t seem to be entirely run by AI. It seems reasonable for a bug to occur, but no one knows exactly what’s happening so far.”
“There are also new suspicions.”
Jiaye hesitated for a moment but still sat down on a low stool next to Chen Yi, leaning on his knees, with hands supporting his head as he looked towards Chen Yi.
“Some people on the forum say that it’s because you, Yi, exploited some bug to obtain props that shouldn’t be obtainable at this stage, triggering a game bug.”
“They say the game is trying to figure out how to ‘kill you off,’ i.e., fix the bug that you are.”
“Mmm.”
Chen Yi nodded lightly, lying calmly in the chair, gently patting Jiaye’s head without speaking. He knew all too well that every prop he had obtained was legitimate for players to have at this stage.
He had never exploited any bugs to gain props that shouldn’t have been obtainable.@@@@
The only title that seemed somewhat outrageous was the ‘Wife Slayer’ title.
It allowed him to have an hour of cooldown-free super abilities.
He had acquired this title from the ‘Life Theater’ map after completing a hidden task.
He had thought he would never have the opportunity to use this title.
But he couldn’t escape the so-called ‘True Fragrance Law.’
The only thing that puzzled him was that although the hidden task on this map was difficult and not so easy to complete, with so many planets out there, surely someone else must have completed the hidden tasks on this map, right?
“Whoever is the first to send out the global planning event will most likely become the first in the vote!”
“I can bet on it, the global event that ends up number one in the votes will definitely be one of the first 100 players who planned an event.”
“So—”
Sword Without End, satisfied with himself, clicked send: “While I was explaining to you guys, I planned this event, and sure enough, I was the first to publish the event on the voting panel.”
“Speed is king.”
“Let me see?”
Tuberculosis Rabbit, somewhat skeptical, glanced at Sword Without End and, with a critical eye, looked towards the temporarily ranked number one event on the voting panel.
‘Event Name: “Visitors from the Sky!”‘
‘Event Content: All players will make a drop from a hundred meters up in the air, and there will be a plastic basin on the ground. Each player has ten aerial drop opportunities, with rewards determined by the accuracy of the drops.’
‘Event Description: You’re like that unexpected visitor from the sky, abrupt and hard to accept.’
‘Event Planner: Sword Without End.’
“...”
After reading the entire event content, Tuberculosis Rabbit stood silently expressionless, then after a moment, lit a trembling cigarette and placed it between his lips.
“Bro, you do realize this is under your real name, right? Don’t you think having your name there is kind of embarrassing?”
“What kind of event have you designed?”
“If your event actually becomes the first in the vote, Yi and I definitely won’t participate, no matter how generous the rewards.”
Indeed.
He had to admit, this oddly shaped event did have the potential to be voted number one; it had already gotten over 8,000 votes in just a few minutes.
Just as Sword Without End had said.
Even though there were two new event ideas since, the difference in votes had widened significantly.
Chen Yi also quietly planned an event.
His event was very simple.
All players would encounter a variety of strange incidents over the next three days.
Like...suddenly a pair of hands reaching out from under the bed.
Or when turning over in bed to sleep, suddenly finding a cold corpse behind them, smiling creepily at them.
Or suddenly noticing some unusual behavior from the person next to them in bed, as if they had become someone else entirely.
Then, based on the players’ psychological fluctuations over the three days, rewards would be given.
Yes, perfect.
That is what a global event should be like. After a quick design, he uploaded it.
...
4 hours later.
“Huh?”
Tuberculosis Rabbit was sitting on the edge of the rooftop, tossing the watermelon rind he’d just finished eating aside, and looked at the voting panel with some surprise.
“Yi, the event you designed actually became number one in the vote.”
“That’s strange, this event doesn’t seem like a relaxing one, players should prefer to vote for something more laid-back, not something that looks so eerie.”
