"The ticket price is ten heart cores, and the collateral is 0.1 gram of soul. Would you like to board the ship?"
The noble man wearing gold-rimmed glasses elegantly held up a golden ticket.
"Please don't worry. If you tear up the ticket after you disembark, your collateral will be returned, but only if..." The man raised the corners of his lips and pushed up his glasses with his index finger, and a flash of white light flashed by.
"You were able to disembark safely."
Ten cores are not a precious thing, but tenth of a gram of soul...
This may sound bluffing, but players have reasons to get on board.
There are only forty names left on the ranking list.
There are already very few space-time rifts that players can close and bosses that they can defeat.
The scores of the players at the top of the rankings are almost overwhelming. It is impossible to double your points and break into the top ten at the last moment just by hunting dark matter and bosses.
"Two tickets." Su Ye gritted his teeth and reached out to take the two golden tickets.
"I wish you a perfect journey, sir." The dignified conductor leaned forward, the black boss mark in the corner of his eye becoming more and more conspicuous.
"Let's go." Su Ye took his sister's hand and boarded the gorgeous and huge cruise ship.
"There's still a quarter of an hour before the cruise ship departs. Sir, do you need a ticket?" The conductor raised his trademark smile and asked the next guest.
"There are many people who want to make a comeback..." Su Ye indifferently glanced at the familiar yet unfamiliar faces on and off the boat.
Suddenly his eyes paused briefly, and he saw two familiar figures lingering under the boat.
'Hope...the future goes well. ’ Su Ye lowered his eyes and walked towards the splint.
"Sir, the price of the ticket is ten heart cores, and the collateral is 0.1 gram of soul. Do you need two tickets?" The conductor smiled and looked at the two people in front of him.
"Two tickets. Why are you here..." Mu Chen looked speechlessly at Yu Li, who looked harmless in front of him.
"Don't be like this, brother, make some extra money." Yu Li took out two golden tickets from the tray.
After taking away twenty heart cores, Yu Li raised his hand and pulled out a piece of transparent 'smoke' from Mu Chen's eyebrows and stuffed it into the ticket.
"Please take it sir, here is your ticket and soul."
"How many people." After collecting Mu Chen's soul, Yunchuan took a step forward and bowed his head slightly.
"Twenty-seven players have already boarded the ship. There are five other players near the ship and six players far away. Oh, there is no space system among them. They have probably given up boarding." Yu Li lowered his voice and raised his head. His hand brushed between Yunchuan's brows.
A golden soul flashed past and quickly penetrated into the equally dazzling ship ticket.
"Has it been arranged?" Yun Chuan nodded.
"Of course, except for the 'dead' colleagues and the pair of brothers, the other bosses have already boarded the ship."
"Yeah." Yunchuan didn't stay any longer and set off to the luxurious steps of the cruise ship.
Leaving Blade Xing and Yun Qing to deal with six players was more than enough. I didn't expect that this generation of players would be so active.
"There are more people on this boat than I thought." Mu Chen looked around and found an empty corner to sit down.
At this time, the ship has not sailed yet, and most players are calmly observing the situation around them.
But there are also a few outliers among them.
The blond woman with red lips was holding a glass of blue cocktail and chatting with a little girl in a dress. A few words made the little girl giggle.
"Sibel, a player from Northern Europe, currently ranked sixth in the rankings." Mu Chen cupped his chin and observed them.
"I have no impression of that kid."
"I remember it clearly." Yun Chuan raised his eyebrows.
"I accidentally saw it when I was checking information before. She is a legendary woman."
"Yeah, yeah." Yunchuan asked the masked waiter passing by for a light green drink, and watched the little girl who was as delicate as a doll tiptoeing and handing Sibel a candy wrapped in pink paper.
"Take care of me." Mu Chen leaned next to Yunchuan, listening to the loud cruise ship horn sounding in the air.
……
Five hours ago, each surviving player received an envelope.
The few rows of short handwritten calligraphy on the exquisite gilded letter paper look particularly elegant.
[Dear players, the points exchange meeting will be held at 7pm today. Those who are interested can go to the South Coast Crescent. --——Your Poseidon, here you go]
……
The sky was getting dark, and after three high-pitched whistles, the cruise ship sailed away from the shore.
"Points exchange meeting." Mu Chen looked over the tickets and invitations, but didn't find anything strange.
"Hello, gentlemen and ladies, have you missed your dear Miss Alexa?" A bright female voice sounded on the deck, and the witch in a red dress sat on a swing made of roses and laughed tremblingly.
"Tenth place, Mr. Mu Chen." She jumped off the swing, and the white spotlight chased her footsteps.
"Mr. Lal in the ninth place."
"Mr. Su Ye in eighth place"
……
"The second place is Miss Si Yao."
"And..." Alexa spun around in a circle and conjured a large bouquet of roses out of thin air.
"The first place is Mr. Alaric." The witch took a cheerful step and stuffed a large bouquet of roses into the arms of a tall man.
"It's so... attracting so much attention!" She giggled, took a glass of red wine from the waiter's hand, and gently bit her red lips.
"It seems that these are the players who are about to get the second power. Hmm~ Then..."
"No, Alexa. The fun has just begun, how can we jump to conclusions?"
An ethereal female voice interrupted Alexa's speech.
"And it seems that it is not your stage now."
It was getting dark at this time, and the cruise ship was sailing on the sparkling sea. A gust of sea breeze came and the clouds dispersed slightly.
The soft moonlight poured down, covering the priest's smooth black hair with a layer of gauze.
"Nansheng~" Alexa snapped her fingers, and many roses appeared in the air. "I can control the situation for you in advance."
Nan Sheng, wearing a black fishtail skirt, walked up to the witch, a touch of gold looming in her hair. "Dear guests, please allow me to introduce myself." Nan Sheng's voice seemed to be filled with magic, making every player's eyes only focus on her.
"My name is Nan Sheng. I am the priest of this ocean and the captain of the Crescent Moon."
“Without further ado, let’s announce the guidelines for the points exchange meeting.”
Brush
The ranking list in the sky suddenly disappeared, replaced by blue text that emerged one after another.
——
"Points Exchange Meeting"
1. Kill others to get other people’s points
2. Please do not dirty the stage before the dance starts
3. If you are hurt, you can seek help from the masked attendant
3. When the total number of players is reduced to 30, the exchange meeting will end and the instance will end
——
"Ah~Nan Sheng, don't you think this is unfair to our hard-working top ten?" Alexa lay on Nan Sheng's shoulder with a puzzled expression.
"That's right." Nan Sheng nodded. "Then let's give the top ten players the second ability experience card in advance."
"Of course, being too powerful is not a good thing, dears, the bosses will give priority to attacking players with high points." Alexa winked playfully.
"Ellie, there is only one word difference between prey and hunter." Nan Sheng tapped his finger, and the boss mark on the black-haired priest's arm suddenly turned into a red number - 5000
"Nan Sheng, your points are higher than mine." Alexa pouted, and her boss mark changed to 4,500.
"As you can see, the boss is both a hunter and a prey."
Bang bang bang bang
After the words fell, several spotlights shot into the crowd.
"Oh, it's such a bright light, it flashed to A Meng." The little girl in a dress shyly held up an umbrella, and a line of delicate red cursive characters was printed on the delicate little umbrella.
-
6500-
It is a higher score than Nan Sheng.
"We have too many bosses, so I won't introduce them one by one." Alexa nodded.
"But among them, we still have a direct quota to win the championship." Nan Sheng turned around.
"Kill the chief boss to win first place and immediately leave the exchange meeting. It's victory. Not only can you get the second power, but you can also get a mysterious gift."
Alexa chuckled
"But I don't recommend that you do this."
Chief boss…
Mu Chen felt something was wrong as soon as he heard this word. He turned around suddenly and saw the familiar black-haired young man grinning at him with a sinister smile.
Very good
It's a shadow.
Amid the players' amazed expressions, Mu Chen turned his head silently.
The silver-haired boss was leaning against the fence, accepting people's gazes.
As if he noticed Mu Chen's gaze, the boss's golden eyes moved slightly, a smile appeared on his lips, and the players gasped.
As unattainable as a god, as hazy and sacred as moonlight, all the beautiful words in the world are not enough to describe his beauty.
"Boss's looks are really good." Alexa clapped her hands proudly in an attempt to attract the players' attention, but unfortunately no one looked back at her.
"The dance starts at twelve o'clock in the evening. Please dress appropriately and invite your favorite dance partners." Nan Sheng snapped his fingers to turn off the lights.
……
The sea cruise ship is huge, and players are scattered and hidden in various places.
crackling
Mu Chen had a headache looking at the crackling black flames on his fingertips.
The second ability... After the lights were completely turned off, the players were teleported to various locations on the cruise ship. After a burst of pain, Mu Chen found that his fingertips were numb and black flames could not be controlled.
Hmm... He pressed his finger against the wall.
After half a minute there was no response from the wall.
So weird...
As strange as his black mist.
The rankings on the rankings have not changed much now. Everyone knows that they need to find a suitable dance partner for themselves before the dance at twelve o'clock.
Speaking of dance partners... Mu Chen had a headache. He didn't want to find Ying as his dance partner.
But Yunchuan's current boss looks so angry that if he were to invite him, other players would be shocked.
As for killing Yun Chuan, that is something that one would never dare to dream about.
Mu Chen rolled his eyes, the experience of being 'specially trained' before entering the dungeon was still vivid in his mind.
He is currently ranked tenth, so as long as he stays within ten, there should be no big problem.
The bosses on the ship have several familiar faces, Yu Li, Xisir, Nan Sheng...
Bosses who are familiar with Yunchuan are not easy to mess with.
Forget it, let's go out and explore the situation first.
At this time, Mu Chen did not notice that the place where his fingertips had touched actually disappeared out of thin air.
A part of the iron wall disappeared smoothly on the wall, without any pits or even a trace of cutting.
"Sir, do you need a drink?"
Passing by the luxurious corridor, a masked waiter in a tuxedo held a tray of cocktails and gave a slight salute to Mu Chen.
"Thank you." Mu Chen took a glass of red wine. "Do you know where the stage is?"
"It's an honor for me to serve you, sir." The attendant nodded slightly, "The stage is any place where you can dance, sir."
Any place where you can dance is a stage...I understand
"Thank you." Mu Chen nodded politely.
"It is a great honor for me to serve you, sir." A smile flashed across the attendant's green eyes.
"Brother, brother."
Suddenly, Mu Chen felt the corner of his clothes being pulled.
When he lowered his head, he saw a little girl as cute as a doll, looking at him innocently.
If it weren't for the scarlet boss mark glowing red on the umbrella, a normal person would be melted by the little girl's cute heart.
When did she come?
Mu Chen was shocked. Isn't this the boss who was chatting with Sibel?
"Brother, do you... want to eat Ameng's candy?" Ameng tilted his head and took out a lollipop wrapped in blue candy wrapper with his white and tender hands.
