581 Mythical Mirage, Rules and Restrictions (1/2)
Qin Ruo sat in front of the computer and accessed the official website. At the same time, he was enjoying the breakfast prepared by Xiaoxiao so early in the morning. He started looking up information regarding the Grand Tournament. Qin Ruo did not listen much yesterday despite many people in the league already partially mentioning about the competition's information. After all, the food in the Great Winter Hall was very attractive.
After a few seconds…
Qin Ruo suddenly put his milk and sandwich back on the plate. The information on the screen made him instantly serious.
It was a surprise to know that there was an inside story behind the Grand Tournament…Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
In the Mythical Continent, there was still a third force that was above the Angel and Demon Faction!
With that, everything became clear now…
How was it that the Mercenary Guild could cross over between the Angel and Demon Faction?
Without a camp, why did the Demigod NPCs in the Underworld treat every player in the Angel and Demon Faction fairly?
Why the Mythical Continent's city infiltration would result in such a situation?
So that's how it was!
”…”
There was a detailed explanation pertaining to the Grand Tournament on the official website. It mentioned the competition's organizer as well, a highly secretive organization named Mythic.
The group had started to reveal themselves since the Underworld's infiltration.
Mythic was a human organization in which all the members inside were either Demigod or Divine Tier. All of them were Mythical Continent's Champions. The organization had been built by the strongest beings in the Mythical Continent and they were the ones that secretly protected the Mythical Continent from outside forces.
Not only did they have the Angel Faction and Demon Faction's NPCs as backing, they also had the support from Mythical Continent's largest organization as well—the Mercenary Guild!
The almighty Mythic were also the organizers of the upcoming competition!
”…”
However, all these consequences were credited to the players in the Mythical Continent. Moonrise City had been destroyed for about two months already, followed by Sin City which was successfully captured by Angel Faction for an hour.
Right now, both the Angel and Demon Faction's forces were guarding the Moonrise City and Sin City and were both already in a temporary cold war. Hence, the Mythics made use of their influence to convince both the factions' leaders to organize the Grand Tournament.
The Mythics' intention was to have an intense combat test on all the adventurers. They wanted to do so before the Underworld had a stronger infiltration to the Mythical Continent again in the future.
Instead of a tournament, it would be more appropriate to say it was a purging exercise to sort out the strong players in the Mythical Continent. The Underworld would have a much stronger infiltration in the future and hence, the Mythical Continent needed to have more higher-level adventurers such as Demigod adventurers and even Divine adventurers.
The rewards included millions of Honor Points, tens of thousands of Reputation Points, a mysterious piece of Demigod equipment and a Tier 6 Skill Manual…
(When a player reaches Tier 6, NPC Elders would not be able to teach the player magic skills directly. The player was required to personally search the Skill Manual or by completing quests.)
Without a doubt, the rewards offered by Mythic were very attractive. It was enough to motivate all the players to take part in the competition.
Qin Ruo rubbed his nose…
”The rewards for first place are so bountiful.”
However, it would be very challenging to get to the first place. Even Qin Ruo himself did not have the full confidence to achieve that among the other Champions.
Angel Faction's Majestic Hero, Netherclaw, Scarlet Bauhinia, and Homme Fatale all had immeasurable power. Qin Ruo did not have a one hundred percent confidence that he could defeat these four players. During the previous incident at the Valley of Death, Qin Ruo was able to suppress Netherclaw only because he made use of power from the three clans. If it was a one-on-one PvP, Qin Ruo would surely not know what Netherclaw still had up his sleeves.
There were too many formidable players in the Angel Faction!
Qin Ruo started to get a headache now…
Previously, Savior from Satan's Salvation had eliminated over ten Tier 5 players with just a single magic spell, in which, its magical name too difficult to pronounce. This was something that Qin Ruo needed to be careful as well.
Additionally, there was also H&G's highest level player, the Death Cult's Sinistress. Based on rumors, Sinistress was also a formidable player that had power equivalent to the Savior.
Then, there was Zeus Legion's League Master, Zeus. There were no battle records of him before and hence, Zeus' powers were still unknown. In short, there were many Champions that still existed in the Mythical Continent…
”Sigh, I can't even rest for a while.”
Qin Ruo drank his milk and sighed for a second. Initially, Qin Ruo had planned to go to the Underworld to grind for a few days to become Tier 6 but who knew there would be such a competition right after the city's infiltration.
Qin Ruo continued to browse through the details despite feeling a little despondent.
”…”
The Grand Tournament did not have any other restrictions aside from level!
The competition would be held for five days and it was at the same time divided into five phases.
On the first day, Tier 4 players and above would be sent to the Mythical Mirage after the competition started. The Mythical Mirage was an extra-dimensional space discovered by the Mythic organization long time ago. This would be the first phase's location—the Trial Place, and it would be prepared by thousands of Divine Champions.
The Trial Place had different kinds of monsters, traps and other unexpected risks. The participants' objective was to get through to the other side of the Mythical Mirage.
