Chapter 318: Chapter 258: Special Difficulty, Hundred-People Survival War_2

Xiao Yi’s words suddenly reminded everyone in the live streaming room!

[Right! In the past, the Chosen Ones always fought their own instances, but there was only one time when they fought each other... It was during that instance of the Feast!]

[Does that mean... this time, is it also a bastard instance where the Chosen Ones must kill each other!?]

People once again recalled those memories they did not wish to remember.

[Special difficulty]

It wasn’t just about having enough ability to survive; it was a brutal struggle where, no matter what, some were destined to fail and die.

Thinking this, everyone couldn’t help but shiver. How many people would die this time?

Then, just as everyone had feared, the system’s prompt completely confirmed their suspicions.

[Ding! The game is about to start, loading Kaidan Dungeon—Ruined City]

[This instance’s difficulty is special difficulty, disabling outside reminders]

Upon hearing this news, many felt their hearts turn cold.

It was already difficult enough to clear a regular Analog Horror instance; this time, they would have to fight against the Chosen Ones from other Countries!

Even for the strong who could easily clear Analog Horror instances, when encountering another strong player capable of the same, who would win and who would lose was uncertain.

However, under the premise that some must die, a Country that had a powerful Chosen One who could survive and profit from Analog Horror might lose everything they had gained from it... and losing the powerful Chosen One painstakingly developed might even lead to a descent into the abyss of destruction.

The risk was the same for every Country.

With special difficulty guaranteed to have failures, it was far more terrifying than the highest difficulty... so no one’s expression looked good.

Meanwhile, the Dragon Country People also noticed something.

For them, this special difficulty posed a tremendous disadvantage!

[Damn it! Brother Xiao Yi’s talent was fully exposed in the last instance. There’s no way we won’t be at a strategic disadvantage in terms of intelligence!]

[Reality alteration through cognition... This ability is strong, indeed, but also extremely easy to counter! After all, one’s own cognition isn’t entirely subject to personal influence. If targeted, this ability might instead become a blade that kills oneself! Moreover, the last instance already provided a perfect example!]

[And not only that, but everything Brother Xiao Yi has experienced so far has been in full view! Anyone has a certain understanding of Brother Xiao Yi, so it’s inevitable that Chosen Ones from other Countries will target him! He could even face a united front from all other Countries, completely isolated!]

[Another point we can’t ignore is that this time over a hundred Chosen Ones are gathered together! That is to say, unlike the last special difficulty, which divided players into groups, this time... it’s highly possible that a hundred Chosen Ones will all fight in a grand battle together!]

[There are over a hundred Countries in existence, which means Brother Xiao Yi has to face over a hundred enemies, all of whom know his abilities, or even everything about him, and who all possess unknown talents. What kind of hellish difficulty is this!]

[Damn it, no sooner had Brother Xiao Yi’s ability been exposed to everyone than they hit us with a special difficulty! Although it’s not the first time they’ve done this, I can’t help but say... this Analog Horror is really a bitch!]

The Dragon Country’s live streaming room immediately filled with wails, mixed with curses, mournful muttering, and messages proclaiming their belief in Brother Xiao Yi.

While the live streaming room was increasingly dominated by negative emotions, Xiao Yi, who had to undertake the task with other people tomorrow, actually looked relieved from his earlier gloom.

"So... does this mean I can finally meet that guy again after such a long absence?"

In the past, that friend who had traveled and collaborated with Xiao Yi, they would finally meet again at this moment.

Xiao Yi immediately began to scan the crowd, intending to find that person’s figure.

But when Xiao Yi looked toward the crowd, he realized that almost every person nearby was watching him.

Moreover, their faces all showed caution or expressions of ambiguous intent.

At the same time, Xiao Yi heard their whispers.

"Look, that’s Xiao Yi."

"I saw him long ago, or rather, the moment I came here, everyone noticed him. No, everyone has to constantly watch his every move..."

"...Those clear eyes hide untold wisdom. One must not be fooled by his appearance and become careless. At least, I have seen many instances of his performance... Without a doubt, that seemingly gullible face is just his guise! If you dare get close to him, you might not even know how you died!"

"If I were just an audience member in the live-stream, I’d definitely like him, but as an enemy, well..."

"Damn it! Being chosen for an Analog Horror instance was unlucky enough! And to face special difficulty on my first try, I have to deal with that Xiao Yi... This is bullshit!"

"...Regardless of the specific situation later, whether we need to team up or not, I think it’s best to keep my distance from him for now, to avoid being targeted..."

"Mm, I agree. Xiao Yi will undoubtedly be targeted, and since his abilities have already been revealed, being his teammate isn’t cost-effective. But opposing him is still very dangerous... no matter what, there are no good options, so let’s just wait and see for now."

"...Huh?" Listening to the murmurs around him, Xiao Yi grew more and more confused.

He couldn’t help but mutter softly to himself, "Why does it feel like everyone knows me? Am I that famous? And... it seems like everyone is quite afraid of me, is my reputation really that bad?"

Xiao Yi pondered for a moment; he couldn’t recall doing anything outrageously wrong.

Just then, Xiao Yi heard a familiar voice.

Everyone present knew Xiao Yi, but nobody wanted, or rather dared, to speak to him.

But there were exceptions...

"Hey, Xiao Yi... long time no see."

Xiao Yi followed the voice and indeed saw the familiar face he had not seen for a long time.

"Sheraya!"

Sheraya Caligula was walking towards him with a gentle smile, waving her hand.

Xiao Yi was also eager to approach Sheraya, but before he could, an unfamiliar girl had already stepped in front of him.

"Yah, Xiao Yi, we... finally meet."

She greeted him with a light smile as she approached.

"...?" Xiao Yi immediately showed a puzzled expression, "Who are you? Do we know each other?"

The girl’s face fell slightly, but she quickly looked at Xiao Yi with a smile again, "Don’t we know each other now? Hello, my name is Fei Ye."

Hearing the girl’s words, a strange expression appeared on Xiao Yi’s face, "...Fatty? That’s a rather unique name."

The girl, Fei Ye, had veins popping on her forehead, but she still maintained a frozen smile and slowly said, "It’s Fei Ye, pronounced ’fille’. I gave it a lot of thought before deciding on this name, I hope you can take it more seriously..."

"Foreign language?" Xiao Yi was startled, he could not speak a foreign language! "I got it, you’re called Fei Ye, right? I’ll remember that!"

If making Xiao Yi pronounce the name correctly was a challenge, he wouldn’t have managed, but if it was considered a foreign language, then he could pronounce it correctly.

The exact reason was unclear, probably because Xiao Yi always liked to compromise.

"So..." Xiao Yi asked, "Fei Ye, what do you want with me?"

Fei Ye said, "We don’t know what will happen next. In the face of the unknown, two people are surely better than one, right?"

Her intentions were quite clear, albeit a bit awkward.

However...

"Sorry, miss, but that’s not possible."

At this moment, Sheraya had already arrived beside Xiao Yi, and she said to Fei Ye:

"Because, there’s already someone beside Xiao Yi, and that’s me. There’s no room for anyone else between us, so I suggest you give up."

Hearing Sheraya’s words, the audience that was somewhat bored in the live-stream suddenly couldn’t keep their composure.

[Long time no see, Sheraya is still the same Sheraya, hitting the right notes the moment she speaks.]

[And she nailed the flair so much that it’s a bit too much to handle! It’s truly a bit overwhelming!]
