Chapter 1420 - Online (1/2)
In one of the Black Star Army bases, white light flashed, and countless army players appeared out of nowhere. Very soon, there was a veritable sea of people.
The players were already familiar with this. They opened the interface to look at the version number while opening the quantum network to look at the current time.
“Oh my, the time span for this version is only slightly more than ten years, much shorter than the last time.”
“It’s just a small version update, I guess.” “Didn’t the three Universal Civilizations say that the World Tree Civilization will enter the territory in ten years? The timing should be just right. It seems like Galaxy Times was right. This is the time for the update, right into the stage of the war.” “It’s not easy to finally get a universal war. As long as the version update doesn’t directly skip it, I’ll be satisfied.”
Many players browsed through the events of the past decade as they casually chatted.
There was nothing much worth paying attention to during the ten years of preparation. Only the changes in the Beyond Grade A population interested many players.
“No way, Lagi is already a Beyond Grade A Super?”
“The gambling dog Hadavy hasn’t advanced yet? Hahahaha, I knew it!”
“Nero’s life is really smooth-sailing. Is this what it means to be a part of the later generations…”
“F*ck! EsGod was already released, and he even killed a Tree King? Amazing!” “Tsk, there are too many new Beyond Grade As. The cost of collecting all the Wayne Cards has increased again.”
“F*ck, did Black Star and the Dragon Emperor announce their relationship? Damn it! There’s no hope for this old man anymore… My partner was born before I was, and they’ve already aged when I’m at my peak. Is this what a bitter life is like…”
“What are you thinking? Black Star is mine!” “They’re a perfect match, so how can a demon like me object? Boohoo…” Many army players flipped through the rumors of Beyond Grade As one after another, their gossipy hearts burning.
Initially, other than Han Xiao and a few other Beyond Grade As, the other top-notch experts did not have much contact with the players. The players did not have a deep impression of them, so they would not deliberately remember them. However, the existence of the Wayne Cards had become a bond between the two parties, which led to the players being extremely familiar with the names and deeds of every Beyond Grade A.
However, compared to the casual players, the professional players were more concerned about utilitarian matters. They were not in the mood to gossip and were mainly gathering useful information to discuss.
Maple Moon analyzed in a low voice. “The name of the version after this update has an additional ‘War of All Territories’. The World Tree will most likely be able to fight its way in. This should be the theme of the version.”
“Hmm, I did some research on the internet. The World Tree has already reached the border, but it is temporarily blocked by the Galactic Alliance Army. Furthermore, the World Tree invaded from the secondary dimension a few days ago and was forced to retreat. The current situation of the three Universal Civilizations isn’t too bad.”
Maple Moon looked at the interface and said, “The level cap has been unlocked for this version update. This way, the players in the top tiers should be able to enter the Calamity Grade.”
Frenzied Sword nodded in agreement and said, “As our overall strength increases, there will be more ways to increase our strength. Furthermore, some of our abilities will undergo a qualitative change. I think there will be a huge change in this Pro League.”
This mini version update did not take long, and the main storyline mission did not change. What the professional players cared about the most was that the level cap was unlocked from level 180 to level 200, and there was room for improvement.
“Let’s go to the frontline first and get to the command center to arrange a combat mission.”
“Let’s go. If we’re late, we’ll miss out on the good missions.”
The players were in an uproar for a while, before they finally understood the current situation. They all took their spaceships to the frontline, and streams of light left the base.
On the other side, the main planet of the Beyond Grade A Association.
Han Xiao had already announced the end of the meeting. When he returned to his room, he saw many players online through surveillance.
“Has his level been unlocked to level 200? As long as one doesn’t have too many subclasses, the players who grew themselves in the standard manner should be able to enter the Calamity Grade. The scale this time will be huge.”
If it was in the past, Han Xiao would have been afraid, but now, he had enough confidence. Even if a large number of players entered the Calamity Grade, they would not be able to cause him much trouble.
Although he had reached the Transcendent Grade, he had yet to reach the limit of that realm, thus he still had to harvest leeks. However, before the last update, he had already harvested a large number of players’ wealth. Now that the players had just come online, their wallets were dry. He had to wait for them to earn some money before he could reap the profits.
Furthermore, Han Xiao had found another way to farm EXP, and that was to use psionic waves to rampage on the battlefield. This speed was much faster than the mechanical army, and the cost was extremely low and convenient. Even if there was a level penalty, where the normal members of the World Tree could only provide the lowest 1 EXP, he took whatever he could get. The people of the World Tree revived continuously, thus they were perfect targets for gaining experience. Han Xiao decided that he had to have his cake and eat it too.
The players were already on track, so there was no need to worry too much. Han Xiao was more concerned about the meaning of the name of the version since he had no idea what the implications were behind it.
“No matter what, this is a clue…”
Han Xiao nodded to himself.
Under his influence, the direction of “Galaxy” was completely different from his previous life. He had also come into contact with many secrets that the players in his previous life could not touch. He did not dare say that he understood this universe completely. Even if the suspicion based on the name of the version was just groundless speculation, it was better to be cautious.
Han Xiao closed the interface and summoned Phillip to give some orders. He then changed into The King and teleported to Floating Dragon.
Currently, the entire Planet Aquamarine civilization had migrated, and Floating Dragon had followed them. They were currently taking refuge in the Central Galaxy.
In the huge palace of the Dragon Emperor, a light flashed, and Han Xiao’s figure appeared out of thin air. He turned around and walked toward Aesop’s residence.
Since there were no clues, he would ask the metaphysical.
He soon arrived at his destination and pressed the doorbell.
“You’re here?”
Aesop opened the door and invited Han Xiao
in.
Han Xiao did not stand on ceremony. He sat on the sofa and smiled. “How didn’t you foresee that I would come to find you?”
“Prophecy isn’t always effective. Ever since you became a Transcendent, prophecies regarding you have become more and more difficult…”
Aesop shook his head.
