At this moment, the Tiandao Interface issued another prompt.
[Notice: During the Resource Wager, the leaderboard channels for both Rookie Villages will be temporarily disabled.]
The chat channel erupted in a chorus of complaints.
"Holy crap~! We can't access the leaderboard anymore!"
"Huh? It's really locked!"
"Now we won't know who's ranked first in levels!"
"This is intentional! The Tiandao wants us to panic!"
"Exactly! The less we know, the more anxious we get!"
"Everyone, isn't Liu Xuan at the top of our village? As long as Liu Xuan reaches Level 5, we'll win!"
"You're right!"
"Yeah! Let's just trust Liu Xuan!"
Qin Feng saw this and remained silent.
In reality, he was the true top-ranked player in the village.
Just then, the Tiandao Interface issued another update.
[Announcement: The chat channels of both Rookie Villages are now successfully linked. Villagers from either side can enter the opposing channel, but they won't have permission to speak.]
[Reminder: The Resource Wager will begin in 10 minutes. Countdown: 10:00… 9:59…]
With the channels linked, a new 137 Rookie Village Chat Channel option appeared in the lower-right corner of the Tiandao interface.
Qin Feng immediately switched to the 137 chat channel, where chaos was already unfolding.
"Oh my god! What's happening? Why did our 137 Rookie Village start a Resource Wager against 91 Rookie Village? Who?! Who did this?!"
"Didn't you see the prompt? It was someone named Edward!"
"Damn that Edward! Why did he start this challenge without our consent?!"
"Damn it! If we lose this challenge, we're screwed!"
"I don't want to lose! I hate losing! I oppose this!"
"Sir, the Tiandao has already sanctioned this challenge. There's nothing you can do about it!"
"Oh my god! This isn't democratic! What about our rights? Why doesn't the Tiandao let us vote? Why can't we choose freely?"
"Damn it, Tiandao! How can you do this? I want to protest! I want to organize a demonstration against the Tiandao!"
"You fools! The Tiandao is a power far greater than God! We're mere ants in its eyes, and you dare oppose it?! This is the Tiandao's Kill World, not our so-called Beacon of Liberty!"
Reading this, Qin Feng finally understood.
The 137 Rookie Village consisted entirely of people from the L Nation on Blue Star.
And judging by their reactions, they didn't seem too bright.
Even now, they hadn't grasped the seriousness of their situation.
In contrast, 91 Rookie Village consisted of people from the D Nation.
It seemed the Tiandao deliberately grouped people from the same country into the same Rookie Village.
"Damn it! It's all Edward's fault! Why did he start this challenge?"
"Everyone, I just checked the 91 Rookie Village chat channel. Turns out they're all from the D Nation!"
"D Nation? Their people are so skinny and weak. If they're the opponents, I feel much better now."
"Sir, don't underestimate the D Nation. While they may seem frail, they have an ancient civilization and high average intelligence."
"Oh please! In a world of bloodshed and slaughter, can intelligence really compare to a strong body?"
At that moment, a new message popped up in the chat channel, signaling Edward's arrival.
Edward: "Ladies and gentlemen! I am the esteemed Baron Edward!"
"Damn you, Edward! Finally, you show up!"
"A baron? What's that supposed to mean?"
Edward: "Haha!! Allow me to reveal a secret: I, Edward, am a proud member of the noble Blood Clan."
This revelation caused an uproar in the chat.
"My god! So Edward is a vampire!"
"Vampires possess immense power and eternal life. They're leagues beyond us humans. This Kill World was made for them!"
"But he's just a baron, which is probably the weakest rank among vampires."
"Sir, even the weakest vampire is far stronger than us humans. He'll definitely reach Level 5 quickly and lead us to victory!"
"Oh! I get it now! Edward must have deliberately chosen the D Nation's village for this challenge. With their frail physiques, their base stats must be terrible. They can't compare to us, let alone Baron Edward!"
"Yes! That makes sense! Our 137 Rookie Village is destined to win this wager!"
Edward: "Ladies and gentlemen, please don't call me a vampire. Address me as a noble member of the Blood Clan. I will secure victory for you!"
"Baron, what's your current level progress?"
Edward: "Ah, I'm currently Level 4 (370/1200), so I'm not far from Level 5."
"Oh my god! Baron, you're already Level 4?! I'm still stuck at Level 1!"
"Dear Baron, you're incredible! Absolutely amazing!"
"Dear Baron, I worship you!"
The L Nation citizens were ecstatic.
"No! Edward, I oppose you! I will never vote for you!"
Edward: "Why?"
"Because your actions aren't democratic!"
Edward: "Oh, sir, don't you want to win? Don't you want more attributes and resources?"
"I do, but I still oppose you. That's my freedom!"
Edward: "Oh my god! In my long life, I've realized that our L Nation never lacks idiots!"
"Baron, please ignore those fools. Focus on leveling up and winning this wager for us!"
Edward: "Ladies and gentlemen, there's no need to worry. Night is approaching! Nighttime is when the Blood Clan is strongest. By then, I'll be able to single-handedly take on Tier 4 beasts and rapidly gain experience!"
"Oh my god! The Blood Clan is truly powerful. A Level 4 baron can already take on Tier 4 beasts! Incredible!"
"Ah! Now I see! Baron, you deliberately initiated this wager at night because it gives you an advantage."
Edward: "Indeed, sir. Nighttime is my domain. And I chose 91 Rookie Village because the number '91' holds special meaning for us L Nation citizens!"
"Wow! Baron, you're so thoughtful and strategic!"
"Baron, having you in our 137 Rookie Village is such a blessing!"
Edward: "Everyone, the wager is about to begin. I'll regularly update you on my leveling progress so you can feel the victory drawing closer!"
"Oh! That's wonderful!"
"God, we're ready to bask in your glory, Baron!"
The 137 chat channel erupted in cheers, as if victory was already in their grasp...
