"D-D-D"

The deathly silent palace was filled with the ticking of a clock, like the heartbeat of a trembling soul.

Leshart glanced at the disc to his right; the pointer on it slowly stopped spinning.

【Ding】

【Bian Yuelong】

“Bian Yuelong.” Reishardt was slightly surprised that a level four fortress had such a strong mechanical race leadership ability. After thinking for a moment, he changed his mind and said, “Go and clear it out.”

"Yes!" Levi paused for a moment before nodding.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness it's only a level four fortress..."

After Levi left, Reishart looked at the projection again.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

That was the [President's] live stream interface, with 180 million viewers watching.

...

Matching...

【噔】

Match successful

Congratulations on triggering a surprise doubles match!

A series of mechanical system sounds rang out.

"coming!"

Luo Bai was suddenly jolted, loosened his muscles and bones, and mustered all his strength.

KC's final duel.

"Wow—"

A flash of white light.

Then came thunderous cheers.

The dueling arena is a league ring, the size of a football field, with tens of thousands of NPCs sitting around it.

"Deng deng deng deng!"

Four beams of light—one red, one yellow, one blue, and one white—soared into the sky.

Immediately, cheers erupted from both inside and outside the stadium.

The contestants take the stage.

P3 Red Epic Skin - [Saving Girl Malfa].

"Grass." (A type of plant) Luo Bai muttered to himself, "Grave-digging woman."

For personal use: to save a young girl.

The opposite side uses: Grave-digging woman.

Immediately following was a burst of bright golden light.

"There are more experts?" Luo Bai's heart tightened, and he looked closely.

P1 Golden Legendary Skin - [Golden Lord, Golden Kingdom Lich].

“Shiba…”

The crucial moment of the final round: playing with the Tear of the Goddess, doubles, against two anti-Tear of the Goddess vanguards on the opposing team.

They haven't gotten the first strike yet.

I'm getting numb from all the government's [posts/policies].

How to deal with the enemy? I need help urgently, I'm waiting online.

Luo Bai looked to his teammates for help. In this kind of match, it's really impossible to fight two opponents at once; you have to rely on your teammates to some extent.

He slowly turned his head and looked to his right.

A woman in black robes, default skin.

They're either broke guys who can't even afford skins, or top-tier players with hidden decks.

"Could it be that Nanyang Yuzi..."

Luo Bai couldn't help but mutter to himself, feeling somewhat troubled.

If your teammate is [Satellite Shining], then you definitely have a fighting chance and can be ranked as the top teammate. Regardless of whether you win or lose the game, you will never be number one.

The two opposing players also seemed quite wary, sizing up the woman in the black robe.

Just then, the woman in the black robe suddenly remembered something and abruptly put her hand into her pocket, as if she were taking something out.

The other three suddenly tensed up.

"Wow—"

Yilan skillfully took out a bag of potato chips.

"Snapped--"

She gently tapped the potato chip seal open.

Grab two pieces.

Put it in your mouth.

"Crunch—"

"Crunch—"

The crunching sound of chewing echoed in the deathly silent dueling arena.

The air was dry and silent.

That is...

Luo Bai was stunned. He recognized it; there was no mistake.

"Golden Crispy Potato Chips!"

Top-notch cuisine at Byeongetsu-taki!

It's said that the seasoning uses sea salt and black pepper to create a unique and subtle spicy aroma, while the creamy onions are rich and fragrant, and the tomato parsley is crisp, juicy, and slightly sweet and spicy...

Each potato chip is uniformly crispy and golden in color. When you bite into it, you can feel the unique aroma, tenderness, and softness of potatoes.

Five hundred for a pack!

It's a bit pricey, so I haven't been able to bring myself to buy it.

"what--"

"I really want to snatch it."

This teammate has such damn sweet taste.

Sensing a burning gaze, Yi Lan trembled and turned to look at Luo Bai. When their eyes met, she was startled and quickly covered the potato chips, shrieking, "I won't give them to you!"

Eva/[President]: "..."

[The time for the ceremony has ended]

[Red player P1, please start your turn.]

The AI ​​referee's notification drew Luo Bai's attention back. P4 player Yi Lan, sitting in the spectator section, was happily munching on potato chips, muttering with a hint of resentment, "Sister, we're the only ones without skins..."

"I want the White Dragon skin..."

"Shall we buy one..."

【Do you want skin or potato chips? Choose one.】

"uh-huh..."

The cold voice echoed in her mind, and Yi Lan visibly struggled, feeling conflicted and aggrieved.

Just then, the [President] slightly raised his hand, tilted his head back, and said to the air, "Extend by two minutes."

Having finally managed to snipe the target, there are some things we need to find out.

A series of mechanical sounds soon began to echo across the dueling arena.

[Permissions confirmed...]

Permissions confirmed successfully.

[Application Approved]

[The time for the salute has been extended by two minutes]

"Holy crap, it's the administrator." Luo Bai was slightly taken aback. This was the first time he had seen KC defeat someone like this.

Why extend the time for the ceremony?

"Trash talk?"

Surely not...

"You are... Siren, my wife?" the guild leader teased.

The probing sound was quite intriguing.

Together with Eva, he stared intently at Luo Bai, trying to find clues about his identity from his subtle movements.

"Um???"

Yi Lan abruptly stopped eating potato chips, her eyes widened slightly, and she slowly raised her head, casting a subtle and strange look that was hard to describe.

Luo Bai curled his toes, awkwardly creating a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.

"No...that's right."

He answered haltingly.
