To ascend, I had no choice but to create games-Chapter 872 - 479

"Should we just go and wipe out the committee members?" Xiemen Waidao excitedly suggested.

"You’re too extreme," Liuzi sighed. "I understand your impulse to see everyone as a nail when you’re holding a hammer, but don’t forget, you still have a mission with the committee."

"But you have to satisfy my desire to go on a killing spree! After all the trouble to complete the hidden plot and obtain a supermodel thing, it turns out to be useless!"

"Now it looks like it is indeed of no use," Liuzi nodded. "Consider it a collectible then, no harm in keeping it."

Wu Wei also nodded in agreement, then asked, "So do we keep lying low here?"

"Let’s lie low, but we need to stash this thing first."

Wu Wei nodded and then continued studying how to pack up the White Bone Mahjong Table to make it part of his collection.

However, as he was investigating, the White Bone Mahjong Table suddenly burst into red light, and a voice more sinister than Monkey’s resounded from it: "That guy actually died by your hands, unbelievable. Since he’s dead now, this thing is mine."

After saying that, the mahjong table and Wu Wei were enveloped in a strange red glow, and the next second, they disappeared without a trace.

The sudden incident left the remaining three dumbstruck.

After a long time, Xiemen Waidao finally snapped back to reality, pointing to where Wu Wei vanished and said, "My mission target is gone. Is teleportation still possible in this game?"

"Seeing as it’s a game on steroids, a bit of weirdness is normal," Liuzi said. "What about your mission?"

"We still have her," Xiemen Waidao pointed at Hakurei Silver Dream. "The committee said it’s fine as long as we hold onto one seed player. It might not be fair to Wu Wei, but at least we still have one person left, so the mission is fine."

"That’s the only way then," Liuzi sighed.

But to their surprise, Hakurei Silver Dream would have none of it.

Looking dissatisfied, she said, "How can you do this? Can’t you be a bit more professional?"

"But the person is gone, how are we supposed to be professional?"

"You could look for him!"

"I don’t understand," Xiemen Waidao asked, puzzled. "Your relationship with Wu Wei wasn’t bad, well, it was only dislike at worst. And you were competitors during the games, his disappearance should make you happy, right?"

"I entered the competition because of him!" Hakurei Silver Dream said dissatisfiedly.

"Uh... quarreling lovers’ tantrums? Are we just a piece in your play?"

"It’s not that! I just wanted to defeat him fair and square in public, to prove that I am also formidable!"

Explaining her grievances with Wu Wei, Xiemen Waidao and Liuzi listened and expressed that they didn’t quite understand but respected her viewpoint.

After listening, Liuzi said, "Although you’re anxious, I suggest you calm down. The current situation is that we don’t know where Wu Wei is, and we really can’t easily rescue him."

"I see..."

Hakurei Silver Dream thought for a moment, then said, "What if we know where the opponent is?"

Seeing Hakurei Silver Dream, Xiemen Waidao and Liuzi realized she had already launched a challenge invitation.

Hakurei Silver Dream’s understanding of "Megalopolis" far surpassed Xiemen Waidao and Liuzi. She knew how to forcefully battle with others, and how to confirm an opponent’s location by sending a challenge invitation when they are not present.

After several confirmations, she identified Wu Wei’s position and distance, then pointed to a place and said, "Over there, let’s go take a look."

With that, she took the lead and charged towards the destination.

Following behind her, Xiemen Waidao thoughtfully watched Hakurei Silver Dream’s back.

Pulling Liuzi aside, "he" whispered, "I’m starting to regret this now."

"Regret not playing this game sooner?"

"Uh. Fang Cheng Studio really is something, turning a Mahjong game into a battle with superpowers. If I had joined earlier, I could have made it even more fun."

"Now it’s not too late; let’s keep pushing."

It took half an hour to find Wu Wei.

The NPC in front of them was even sleazier than Monkey. He had an alligator as a pet, and this alligator also served as his cardholder and could play cards while being polite and courteous, which was quite surprising.

After finally taking down this guy, the alligator became their spoils of war and helped them acquire a new magic tool.

They thought it was over, but when a new laughter sounded, they knew it wasn’t finished.

It was a continuous mission!

This time, Hakurei Silver Dream had disappeared. To rescue this girl, the three of them immediately started pinpointing her location and then began rushing through the vast sewer system.

Time slowly passed.

Twelve hours before the tournament started, contestants began entering the venue.

According to the tournament rules, as long as contestants crossed the line with any part of their body before the bell sounded, they were considered successfully registered.

Once registered, contestants could enter the competition venue. Inside this sacred place, players were not allowed to attack each other; all underhanded moves were forbidden. Players could only rely on their own strength to fight for victory in this competition.

But everything was allowed before entering here.

The bell signaling the start of registration resonated through the skies, the entire city emitting a deafening sound as if celebrating the arrival of this moment.

Various forces began to converge. The competition had already started at this moment, and every group wanted to get their contestants into the venue while trying to exclude others as much as possible.

For them, this was a war.

Ordinary contestants were already excluded at this point; without a large team, they could hardly break through the layers of encirclement to be among the successful registrants.

It was a twelve-hour long battle, where every player was to show their skills and break through as much as possible.

This unique mode of competition naturally attracted a lot of attention from gaming media, and the competition’s high prize money made people smell the fragrance of traffic, starting to live broadcast within the game.

Game journalist Chen Rang was lucky.

Through his personal connections with Fang Cheng, he had secured an excellent location, even sitting next to Fang Cheng to watch the competition.

Sitting in an airship and playing through a gaming capsule, Chen Rang looked down at the situation below and said to Fang Cheng next to him, "Mr. Fang, the competition hasn’t even started, and it’s already drawn a lot of attention. Some say that you made ’Megalopolis’ with a political agenda, to eventually resolve the chaos on the card game platforms. Is that true?"

Looking at Chen Rang’s curious face, Fang Cheng felt like he was looking at his younger brothers.

Back then, they also always felt that everything he did had deep meanings, in harmony with the universe, and carrying out the will of the vast cosmos.

With a sigh, Fang Cheng said to Chen Rang, "No."

"Oh, I see. Mr. Fang, you really have a way with words. I’ll also pretend I didn’t hear anything," Chen Rang said with an understanding expression. "But Mr. Fang is really impressive, integrating card games so well, I’m truly shocked."

"Pretty normal." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"No need to be so modest. The competition has officially started now. Do you have anything you want to say to the contestants?"

"Just do your best."

"Alright, thanks for the encouragement, Mr. Fang. Let’s continue watching the competition."

Although the competition is still in the registration phase, for many viewers, the competition had already begun.

Right from the start, the competition immediately heated up, with bulldozers being a basic operation—the players dying on the outskirts were more numerous than imagined.
