All players: I can choose my own dungeon rewards.

After reading the discussion about the War of the Worlds on the forum, Wang Zhifan, like many others, became pessimistic about the future of Earth.

After all, it is impossible for Earth players to win all the time. If they play too much, they will eventually lose. If they lose too many times, Earth will be finished. This is how the Extraordinary Game is intentionally set up, and it cannot be changed by the united efforts of the players.

While browsing the forum, Wang Zhifan received a message from Chu Wei, or rather, she was finally free and saw the message Wang Zhifan sent to her after he came back, and gave a reply.

"Brother Fan, you're finally back! Let's go to a restaurant tonight to have a gathering? My three colleagues have been thinking about repaying you for saving their lives!"

"Okay, but don't mention it. It's been a long time."

After Wang Zhifan read the message sent by Chu Wei, he remembered that she was talking about rescuing people from the copy before, otherwise he would have forgotten about it long ago.

The two then chatted about other topics, of course, including the discussion about the World War. Chu Wei's idea was the same as that of most people on the forum. They believed that the World War was equivalent to the death knell of Earth. If the players on Earth were united enough, the day of destruction might come later. But no matter how you look at it, the ending of destruction is inevitable.

For this purpose, Chu Wei specifically revealed to Wang Zhifan what she had found out, saying that the Xia Kingdom had already formulated a "large-scale immigration" plan, which could transfer all Xia Kingdom residents to other habitable planets when necessary, so at least the future of the Xia people might not be so pessimistic.

"Massive immigration? Habitable planet? Is it like the Gaia planet I own?"

After hearing this, Wang Zhifan immediately made some associations and speculated that Xia Country must have mastered other habitable worlds. This was not too surprising. There were so many players in Xia Country, and there would always be someone who would reveal rewards similar to Gaia, and then sell them or hand them over to the administration.

But this brings up another question: is the negative impact of World War really limited to Earth? If all the players move to other planets, and World War also moves the subsequent disasters to that planet, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
When Wang Zhifan told Chu Wei about this doubt, Chu Wei immediately said that experts already had a plan in this regard.

"Brother Fan, someone has already raised your question. The current idea of ​​the experts is to find out the judgment conditions of the extraordinary game and try to guide the disasters to concentrate in one world. For example, if the extraordinary game determines the main world by looking at the planet where the player enters the dungeon, then the players can be uniformly required to come to the earth to play the dungeon, and then return to the habitable planet after playing the dungeon. The relevant transmission technology has been mastered by the authorities and there will be no problem. In this way, all disasters will be concentrated on the earth. If the extraordinary game judges the main world by looking at where the player has lived the longest, the cost will be even higher..."

As Chu Wei described the situation in detail, Wang Zhifan discovered that the experts had given much more thought to this issue than he had. Their plans were all based on the premise that the Earth would eventually be destroyed, and they sounded quite reliable.

But Wang Zhifan thought again that the Administration had specially invited him to participate in the next World War today, and they probably had not given up on the direction of winning as much as possible to delay time. After he told Chu Wei about this, Chu Wei rarely suggested that he think carefully and it would be best not to go to the World War.

"Brother Fan, although I know that you are very, very powerful, but according to the information I have received so far, participating in the World War is very dangerous. Even a top player like Captain Li almost died and is still in the ICU and is in danger of death. Brother Fan, you'd better not participate. Although I am from the Administration, I don't want you to become a so-called hero, or become like Captain Li..."

In order to dissuade Wang Zhifan, Chu Wei directly started a video call with him at this time, instead of the previous pure text communication. She hoped that he would refuse to participate in the world war. Her attitude was quite clear.

However, Wang Zhifan rejected her on the spot, and gave a very special reason. He just said:

"Awei, I want to participate in the World War not because I want to be a hero, nor am I forced by anyone. The real reason is only one: I want to go. Even if the Administration does not invite me this time, I will find a way to join and see what the World War is all about. As for the risks, I can't say there are none, but you should have more confidence in me. Players from other worlds may be very fierce, but I, your brother Fan, am definitely not a pushover..."

Wang Zhifan’s words actually didn’t make it clear that the real reason he wanted to go to the World War was not simply because he wanted to go, but because he wanted to personally confirm the World War reward list!
Even if everyone now said that the reward for the World War was only a useless trophy, he still had to try it himself to feel at ease.

Otherwise, if there are huge benefits hidden in the World War, but the probability of them appearing is very low, it would be a pity for Wang Zhifan not to go, and his privilege of selecting rewards must not be wasted in the slightest.

But Wang Zhifan couldn't say these words to Chu Weiming, so he could only talk about how curious he was about the World War and how much he wanted to try it, and even if he died, he would just consider it bad luck.

Having said that, Wang Zhifan also considered the risks of the World War. It's not that he thought he was invincible and just rushed in. He had previously requested to meet Captain Li at the Administration because he wanted to obtain the most authentic information about the World War, directly from someone who had experienced it firsthand, rather than hearsay.

If the World War really involves special dangers and poses a great threat to him, he will definitely prepare a response plan. The temptation of the reward determines that he will definitely participate once and will not give up even if the danger is great.

But if this world war is really so dangerous to him, it is hard to imagine who else can survive it. This is a difficult assumption to make.

So, the two communicated on the phone. Chu Wei soon felt speechless about Wang Zhifan's stubbornness. She couldn't understand why he insisted on participating in the World War. She could only end the topic in advance and let him think about it carefully.

The two finally agreed on a time to meet for dinner in the evening and ended the video. Wang Zhifan sent a text message to the secretary of Dongjiang Second Bureau, asking him when he could go to see Captain Li, even if it was just to see him outside the medical room.

The secretary's number was the one he had obtained earlier when he purchased a special notebook from the Administration. It had basically not been used for a long time, so he specifically stated who he was when he sent the text message.

The result was a little beyond his expectations. The secretary of Dongjiang Second Bureau replied to the text message very quickly, probably because he knew it was his call.

"Mr. Wang, I have just asked your request. Unfortunately, the Capital Administration replied that Captain Li is suspected to have lost vital signs. I am afraid you can only see him for the last time at the memorial service."

When Wang Zhifan saw the news, he was shocked and quickly called his secretary to inquire about the details. After the secretary answered his call, he repeated it in a low voice to confirm. Wang Zhifan immediately said that he had a way to save people. The secretary said without any doubt that he would fully cooperate and asked him to wait for the results of the communication.

In fact, it was not difficult for Wang Zhifan to find Li Zhenguo if he really wanted to. He knew him and could determine his location by using props such as the Blessed Holy Grail. However, he knew that a person like Captain Li must be under the strict control of the Administration Bureau. It would be easy to cause misunderstanding if he sneaked over, so it would be safest to obtain formal permission to meet him.

As expected, when he told the secretary that he had a way to save Captain Li, he got a very quick response. Just three minutes later, the secretary called and said that a special plane would pick him up and asked him to wait at his villa. The special plane would take him directly to the capital. Wang Zhifan originally wanted to say that he could move faster, but the secretary specifically mentioned that this special plane was alien technology and it only took a quarter of an hour to get from Dongjiang City to the capital. He didn't say much and was determined to see the black technology of the management bureau.

About ten minutes later, just as the secretary had said, he saw a silver-gray flying saucer-like object suddenly appear over his East City Villa, casting a beam of light while making an electronic announcement:

"Mr. Wang, I am the Administration's special spaceship No. 002, assigned to take you to the capital. Please step into the light column and board the plane..."

"The special plane turned out to be a flying saucer? It really is alien technology. The Administration really has a lot of good stuff."

It’s not that Wang Zhifan has never seen a flying saucer before. He often took one when he went to the Hirsch civilization, but this was the first time he saw one on Earth. He immediately entered the light column with some curiosity and was slowly attracted into the flying saucer.

Then he found that there were two other people in the flying saucer besides him. One was standing in the middle with a special mask on his head and busy with his hands. He looked like a pilot or a communicator. The other was a very young boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was standing on the floor of the flying saucer in a very casual posture. Judging from the aura on his body, he was definitely not a weak person. As soon as Wang Zhifan entered the flying saucer, he shifted his gaze over.

"Brother, you look unfamiliar. Is this your first time riding the Administration's flying saucer?"

The boy seemed very interested in Wang Zhifan. As soon as their eyes met, he smiled and asked.

"Yes, I just found out today that the Administration has flying saucers... Are you going to the capital too?"

Wang Zhifan was also somewhat curious about the young man. It was hard to say that a person who could appear in the Administration's flying saucer would be an ordinary person, especially since he was very young.

After hearing this, the young man responded to Wang Zhifan:
"Yes, the Administration invited me to participate in World War II and said they would provide me with high-level resource training. I plan to go there first to see the situation."

From what this person said, Wang Zhifan immediately deduced that this guy was definitely an outstanding player who was valued by the Management Bureau and invited to play in the World War, just like Dongjiang Second Bureau invited him to participate.

According to Chu Wei, the Xia Kingdom is probably currently making preparations for both scenarios. On the one hand, it is secretly and frantically advancing the preparations for the "Great Immigration", and on the other hand, it is summoning powerful players to deal with the World War and delay the destruction of the Earth as much as possible.

It is difficult to say whether the Administration regards the summoned players as high-level cannon fodder. It can only be said that someone must do this kind of thing, otherwise no one will go to the world war and the earth will be destroyed very quickly.

"Brother, will you also participate in World War II?"

Noticing Wang Zhifan's subtle reaction when he heard about the World War, the boy then asked Wang Zhifan.

“I’m thinking of joining.”

Wang Zhifan did not deny it and took the opportunity to inquire about the inside information:
"But I heard that the World War is very difficult, and I still have some doubts. Brother, do you know some details..."

After hearing this, the young man began to tell him some inside information he knew. For example, the first World War was a 50 vs. 50 battle on a volcanic crater. Many people signed up at the time, and masters from all countries hoped to be selected to join. The competition was very fierce. The special gray area of ​​the second World War was announced to be 100 vs. 100, with the number doubled compared to the first time. However, the previous World War had no rewards and was very cruel. Players from all countries almost lost their enthusiasm to participate, and it was possible that they could not recruit full players to participate in the war.

Of course, the full capacity here refers to gathering 100 powerful players, not just gathering 100 people.

There are so many people on Earth, and there are definitely more than a hundred people who are not afraid of death and like to show off. However, the average strength of these people is probably far less than that in the First World War.

After all, if a game does not have good enough rewards, it will be difficult to attract the best players. For the player group, it is also the rewards that determine the attractiveness.

The two chatted for more than ten minutes, and then the UFO suddenly projected a beam of light downwards, and they arrived at their destination.

They quickly got off the flying saucer and met the administration personnel who came to pick them up below the flying saucer.

The boy was taken to the Guodu training camp, which was not far from where the UFO stopped. Wang Zhifan was invited to get into a special car and rushed to the Guodu Hospital.

In the car, the person who came to pick up Wang Zhifan didn't say much. He just confirmed that he was here to help Captain Li Zhenguo. He said that Captain Li was in a very bad condition at the moment and that the management bureau had used all sorts of means to no avail, so they could only hope for help from the outside world.

Wang Zhifan did not boast in the car that he could definitely save the person, but he was indeed very confident. The reason was very simple. He had mastered the power of time and space, and he had the identity of the underworld messenger. It was basically easy for him to save a person. It was not the type of person who had been dead for hundreds of years and was difficult to resurrect.

However, when Wang Zhifan rushed to Guodu Hospital, he found that the situation was a little worse than he thought.

Through the transparent glass filled with extraordinary energy, he saw that Captain Li lying on the hospital bed had only his head that looked like a human being, while the rest of his body had turned into a strange black shadow. He could hardly believe that this was really a human being and not some kind of monster.

An expert received Wang Zhifan upon his arrival and explained to him how difficult the situation was:
"Sir, as you can see, Captain Li is not seriously injured in the conventional sense. He is infected by an unknown curse and his condition is getting worse. We currently believe that Captain Li is actually dead and has been replaced by an unknown monster." (End of this chapter)
