Chapter 716: Go Become a Legend, the First to Break Through!

The players from all three buildings were on high alert, their turrets aimed at the sky above.

After a long while, not a single figure appeared in the air.

From start to finish, no one came out of Mad King Building either.

The only time players caught a glimpse of anything was when the dormitory's large doors were smashed open, they could faintly see a black vortex gate appear, taking away the Mad King residents inside.

Players from all three buildings were completely baffled.

"Are we still fighting or what?"

"Something's wrong, something is seriously, seriously wrong!"

"I propose we hold fire, let's first figure out what trick Mad King Building and Xu Lang are pulling!"

"I second that!"

"I think we could try crossing the bridge... Seems like Xu Lang and his people really have given up resisting."

"No way! Give up resisting? Mad King Building isn't some helpless maiden you can just do whatever you want with!"

All sorts of speculation and doubt kept pouring out, and the continuous barrage of gunfire actually started to have gaps in it.

About five minutes later, a tenth of Mad King Building's dormitory had been destroyed, and players began cautiously stepping onto the stone bridge.

The first one was an Evil King Building player.

His face looked as if it had been disfigured by sulfuric acid, hideous like a vengeful ghost. One look and you knew he was a ruthless character.

All three dormitory buildings tacitly refrained from attacking him!

As he stepped onto the stone bridge, the firelight behind him cast his silhouette, making him look like a lone warrior charging into battle.

But in truth, Ghost Face's heart was far from calm.

Xu Lang's blade, he had experienced it firsthand in the first round. The man had gone straight for the kill on sight.

Some people would surely cower after being treated that way, but Ghost Face had a personality that refused to admit defeat. He wanted to try again!

"This time, I'll definitely block your strike!"

Ghost Face stroked the long blade at his waist, his mind solemn to the extreme.

When Xu Lang had killed him, he hadn't yet taken up the Seven Killings Monarch Sequence. Otherwise, with the "Prisoner of Slaughter" effect in play, he absolutely would not have the courage to face Xu Lang right now.

Several thousand players were watching Ghost Face with rapt attention, watching him walk step by step onto the stone bridge, then step by step to the foot of Mad King Building.

Everyone unanimously stopped attacking.

Ghost Face reached the bottom of Mad King Building, his body pausing, seemingly a bit confused.

Why hadn't he been cut down?

The other players were also very confused.

Why was Ghost Face still alive?

"Where's Xu Lang? Could he be lurking in the stairwell? No way, that's so cowardly!"

Some players with flight abilities had already tested it. The entire void battlefield had a no-fly buff, so there was no way to airdrop in.

The possibility of Xu Lang launching a surprise attack through a teleportation gate had dropped to nearly zero.

Since he couldn't launch a surprise attack, he must be fighting a defensive battle.

But where was he?

"Xu..." Ghost Face looked up at the towering Mad King Building, about to issue a challenge.

Suddenly, the sky trembled, and a meteor came crashing down from above, its target precisely Mad King Building!

Ghost Face's expression changed drastically as he retreated dozens of meters in one burst. But when he saw clearly what the meteor transformed into upon landing, he stopped in his tracks.

Clack-clack-clack~

His body moved like a specter, reaching the meteor's landing spot in the span of a single breath.

This meteor wasn't an attack at all. It was a massive gift package!

Knowledgeable players all recognized it immediately. This was an airdrop!

"The airdrop's out, so Xu Lang should be coming out too, right? He can't just abandon an airdrop, can he? This is the advantage accumulated over the first six rounds!"

The players remained on constant alert for Xu Lang's appearance. If Xu Lang got tangled up with Ghost Face, they would open fire without a moment's hesitation!

Even though Ghost Face was opening the crate, he felt a deadly sense of being caught in a pincer attack!

Especially from the direction of Mad King Building.

Xu Lang's blade made him more wary than all those turrets combined.

Opening an airdrop was supposed to be a simple matter, yet Ghost Face ended up battling the air itself with his wits for a full half minute before finally opening it.

After the airdrop crate was opened, a super Gatling gun that far exceeded the crate's size materialized before him!

This was what they called a super weapon. After Ghost Face checked its info, he was startled by the numbers, then discovered that non-Mad King Building players couldn't pick it up or use it. He couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

After sending the item info to the chat room, Ghost Face looked up at the top of Mad King Building. That teleportation gate was only a few hundred meters away from him.

For ordinary people, that height was insurmountable, but for him, it was an easy climb to the top.

But... should he really go up? What if Xu Lang ambushed him halfway?

"Go! Ghost Face, you're the pride of Evil King Building!"

"Reach the top, fight through Mad King Building!"

"Shove yourself right through that teleportation gate!"

"Ghost Face, go become a legend!"

Cries from his teammates came from Evil King Building.

Ghost Face wasn't a wanderer. He had a life-saving skill, which was why he'd come alone this time.

Players from the other buildings were equally eager to watch the drama unfold, all shouting for Ghost Face to go up.

A surge of hot blood rushed through his body. Ghost Face moved, his form flickering as he stepped onto the first-floor guardrail of Mad King Building, then shot upward like an arrow loosed from a bowstring, closing in on the rooftop at breakneck speed!

Fifth floor... tenth floor... fifteenth floor... twentieth floor!

In less than half a minute, Ghost Face had successfully reached the top.

Staring at the teleportation gate before him, he felt his brain go hazy, a sense of disbelief washing over him.

Click-clack, click-clack...

Leather shoes tapped against the ground, producing crisp sounds. Ghost Face walked step by step to the teleportation gate, his hand passing through, and then his body passed through as well.

Ghost Face vanished, then tumbled out from Evil King Building's teleportation gate, his body now coated in a faint crimson glow.

"Is it an illusion?"

Ghost Face felt like he'd just eaten ten packs of instant noodles at once, completely carbonated, his brain spinning in a daze.

At this moment, players from all three dormitory buildings had completely lost their minds!

"He passed through, he actually passed through!!!"

"There's no one in Mad King Building, Mad King Building is empty!"

"He reached the top, and the turrets didn't even auto-fire!"

"Charge, brothers! Take Mad King Building first!"

"Victory is one-third ours, we don't have to lose anyone!"

"Demon King Castle has completely given up resisting!"

"If you're a real man, climb to the top of Mad King Building!"

"Xu Lang's Sequence must have gone into rampage, he's too busy to command the battlefield. Now's the best chance to reach the top!"

A flood of players charged out of their buildings, stepping onto the stone bridge!

But seeing so many players surge forward all at once, some of them quickly halted their steps, and a portion turned back halfway!!

What if it was a trap?

These were the smart ones, who didn't want to die for nothing!

If this really was one of Xu Lang's schemes, the players from the other three buildings would suffer devastating losses.

One... two... three... a hundred. More and more players climbed to the top of Mad King Building, like tourists checking in at a viral hotspot!

They passed through the teleportation gate on Mad King Building's rooftop, then came out through their own building's gate, their bodies stained with crimson light!

"What trick is Xu Lang really playing? Forget it, just let the people through!"

Solaris began ordering his subordinates to leave the building.

At first, the players were still cautious, but soon they completely let loose. Pedestrians flowed across the stone bridge like a busy street. Though not as fanatical as the initial charge, they were genuinely checking in in an orderly fashion!

More and more players became stained with crimson light!

One player passed by the twentieth floor and had a bright idea, wanting to go plunder Demon King Castle for some loot, only to be blown to bits by a single cannon shot!

After that, everyone behaved themselves.

Youle stood on Amusement Park Building's rooftop, never making a move. He felt that things weren't that simple.

What exactly was Xu Lang doing?
