There is One New Rule Every Month Globally

Chapter 342: Chapter 299: “G, I can only say G.”_2

…

Chen Yi, who found the steel nail in the sand under the overpass after emerging from his tent, couldn’t help but crack an excited smile.

Not bad at all.

The range was somewhat lacking, only about fifteen meters or so.

But the close-range power was nothing to scoff at, and in a modern society where firearms aren’t easy to come by, a nail gun was enough to give him a significant head start. It was a very good beginning.

Next, he would start by getting to know the local customs of this city and the so-called composition of the dark forces.

Chen Yi, with ambitions swelling, grinned and stuffed all the weapons he had collected into his pocket. Just as he was preparing to stand up and leave the overpass, he suddenly heard a mocking laugh near his ear.

“Do you think you hid it well?”

“…”

Chen Yi’s eyes narrowed as he slowly raised his hands and didn’t resist right away. Instead, he said in a low voice, “Let’s talk this over slowly.”

He wasn’t sure where the enemy was.

The voice sounded like it was coming from behind him.

This meant he didn’t have the upper hand, and initiating an attack at this moment would be foolish. He needed to stabilize the enemy first, to give himself time to turn around before taking the initiative.

However, the next second—

An old man’s hoarse voice also rang out beside his ear.

“I didn’t even hide; you’re just too slow to find me.”

“What?”

Chen Yi was startled for a moment. Now he could hear clearly that the voice seemed… seemed to come from above his head?

He instinctively looked up, only to see above his head.

A middle-aged man and an old man were floating in mid-air, confronting each other, their eyes filled with murderous intent—as if they were about to come to blows the second they disagreed.

“Phew!”

He breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed he had misunderstood; that statement wasn’t addressed to him, but to the old man.

He thought so.

He had just arrived; how could he already have enemies?

Without any grudges, enemies needed some justification to attack him, especially in an S-level map where some logic was expected.

Listening to their conversation,

It seemed that both parties had some longstanding grievances. The middle-aged man had been seeking revenge and finally found his adversary. Years of hatred could finally be vented today—it looked like there was about to be a major battle.

After quickly analyzing the situation, Chen Yi decided to leave the place temporarily without disturbing the two, to avoid being involved for no reason. But just as he prepared to move, he suddenly froze, realizing something didn’t quite add up.

Then, with a slightly stiff posture, he swallowed hard and looked up again at the two people floating in mid-air above him.

This time he saw it clearly.

There was nothing under their feet.

They were just floating there.

Wait, is this scientific?

Were you supposed to be standing on some floating device, but because the server for this map is subpar, the floating device under your feet didn’t show up? Or is it that the floating device graphic plugin expired today, and the copyright holder revoked the rights?

Chen Yi felt a sudden sense of dread inside.

Soon,

The scene before him intensified that sense of dread.

“Good, good, good.”

After the middle-aged man sneered a few times, he didn’t waste any words. He abruptly spread his arms wide, his expression turning fierce as he roared, “Since you’re so arrogant, there’s nothing to say. Let me see what level of prowess you’ve gained with seventy years of cultivation!”

The very next second—

A line of scarlet characters abruptly popped up above the middle-aged man’s head.

‘Lv.26, knight.’

Following the middle-aged man’s roar,

A new set of scarlet letters appeared again above his head.

‘B-level Skill: Endless Falling Blossoms!’

Then, the entire sky was suddenly shrouded in dark clouds. A tornado made of flowers mixed with a torrent of water struck with irresistible force toward the old man on the opposite side!

It was a sight that threatened to annihilate on the spot!

In contrast, the old man didn’t panic. His face was emotionless. He slowly pushed out his hands.

“Puny beings.”

‘Lv.38, Smoky Ghost.’

‘A-level Skill: Smoky Ghost Descent!’

An elder, too, had a crimson line of text appearing above his head.

Afterward, behind the elder, a ghost about seven meters tall unexpectedly materialized, with a cigarette in its mouth, its entire form somewhat ethereal and illusory. As soon as it appeared, it cackled at the scene unfolding in front of it.

The next second—

The elder’s body almost instantly became emaciated, while in contrast, the ghost behind him quickly filled out, looking as if its vitality had been sucked away by the ghost in an instant!

The moment the Smoky Ghost appeared, it effortlessly exhaled a mouthful of smoke toward the tornado of flowers in front of it. The originally bright flowers withered the moment they were shrouded in smoke.

Following that.

The remainder of the smoke enveloped the middle-aged man unabated.

Seconds later.

A pool of blood mixed with clothing fell from the sky.

The dark clouds gradually dispersed.

And once again, the sky turned clear.

The elder then twisted his neck, reabsorbing the ghost into his body, and sneered at the blood that had fallen to the ground, “Overestimating oneself.”

Afterwards, he laughed uproariously and strode away.

A display of extreme arrogance.

…

“…”

“…”

“…”

Chen Yi sat expressionless on a stone in the sandy terrain of the overpass, looking at the pool of blood that had plummeted from the sky not far away. He rummaged through his pockets, found a pack of cigarettes that came with this identity, lit one, and put it in his mouth.

After a deep inhale.

It was only within the swirls of light blue smoke that he seemed somewhat absent-minded, gazing into the distance and murmuring.

“Smarter than I thought.”

“It’s you guys who know how to play.”

He had come to understand.

This map probably gave everyone these identities and props, none of them ordinary in strength, all a bunch with supernatural abilities. And yet, only he, a real player, had nothing.

Nothing but a burning heart and a pair of iron fists likely never to smash anyone.

Quite good.

Originally, he thought the difficulty of this map was how to regain a noble position after becoming an ordinary person.

Now, he saw clearly.

The real challenge of this map was to turn from a lamb among hungry wolves into a ferocious tiger.

“…”

At this thought, Chen Yi couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth. How to play?

How was he supposed to play?

He really had no idea.

…

This debut map of Chen Yi’s was only open to players from Threefold Planet and above. At this moment, a large number of Starfield players had gathered in the livestream, eager to see how the recently famous Chen Yi would perform on the inside.

A Whole Starfield announcement.

Not common.

And an unveiling of the Star System Monument game even rarer.

The last player to get the opening debut of a Star System Monument game was a long time ago.

Every free player from the Threefold Planet had gathered in that livestream.

Players from the 3rd Star System didn’t have the privilege to watch the broadcast and didn’t even know about Chen Yi’s debut map.

As for Blue Star, because it was Chen Yi’s home planet, it too could watch the livestream of Chen Yi’s entire debut, despite not being a Threefold Planet.

And that battle just now was witnessed by many viewers in the livestream room.

“G, all I can say is G.”

“Originally, Chen Yi’s advantage was his individual strength. Selecting such a map already baffles most, but now, everyone in the map except Chen Yi is immortal—I can only comment with a complete G.”

“A true warrior is never limited by their surroundings. If Chen Yi really has strength, he wouldn’t perform poorly even in this environment. Otherwise, he’s nothing but a poser looking to hook in reputation.”

“The map must have a way for Chen Yi to become stronger. It wouldn’t really have him start as an ordinary person to establish a D-tier Dark Force. It’s just a lower starting point. Let’s see if Chen Yi can realize this. If he does, it wouldn’t be a hopeless situation.”@@novelbin@@

“Is this the ruthless person who wiped out the Ten Clans not so long ago? Honestly, he seems quite average.”

“I think so too, he looks kind of foolish.”

“Why didn’t Chen Yi help just now? Watching the middle-aged man die in front of him? I knew he was cold-blooded, but didn’t think he’d be this indifferent. Seeing an imminent battle, why not call the police? Why not intervene? Isn’t that a bit morally deficient?”
