Chapter 1236 - 686: Buffer Zone Instance Testing

Chapter 1236: Chapter 686: Buffer Zone Instance Testing

With the victory of this duel, it meant that Shen Sui had officially entered the ranks of ninth-level Life Card Masters.

Although this rank now held no significant reality value for Shen Sui, given that he had essentially challenged all the renowned ninth-level Life Card Masters worldwide.

The stipend for the ninth level was equally trivial to Shen Sui.

Even so, reaching the ninth level meant his career was complete.

Watching the victory words slowly dissipate, Shen Sui was filled with emotion.

"Congratulations." Although An Hai felt somewhat frustrated being suppressed by Shen Sui in the duel, he sincerely expressed his congratulations to Shen Sui.

"Are we still doing the duel with Old You next?" Wang Ming approached to inquire about Shen Sui’s opinion.

According to the promotion rules, winning two out of three matches in the promotion tournament could upgrade one’s rank, and if someone won the first two, whether to compete in the last match was up to the individual.

Shen Sui thought for a moment and then replied affirmatively, "Let’s do it."

He knew that You Wenqi had come to Modu early for his promotion tournament.

Although he suspected that this guy just wanted a duel against him, he couldn’t let someone make the trip in vain.

Wang Ming nodded and replied, "Let’s set a time then."

Shen Sui thought for a moment and decided on the day after tomorrow.

He estimated that even on the other side, in the Interstellar Federation, reaching the battlefield between both sides would take some time.

So he wasn’t in a rush to return to the Interstellar World for operations.

And the reason it’s the day after tomorrow is that he needs to visit the Exploration Bureau tomorrow for the final testing of the new buffer zone instance.

Of course, the main reason was that the enemy this time was too strong, and Wang Ming felt it was more reliable to have Shen Sui involved.

Shen Sui was happy to let Alice relax a bit.

Though he felt Alice was always in a state of relaxation anyway.

The duel concluded, and Shen Sui returned to the surface by elevator.

As Shen Sui stepped out of the elevator, he heard commotion coming from a distance.

Wang Ming’s face instantly turned grim.

It was work time now!

What kind of behavior was this level of noise?

With a stern face, he walked toward the source of the sound.

Upon closer inspection, he found Alice was in another duel.

Alice had become passionately in love with Life Card duels.

In the Interstellar World, she could occasionally have duels with Mo Suo to quench her thirst.

However, constantly dueling with a single deck could become tiring.

So when she saw the live broadcast of Shen Sui’s duel with An Hai, she couldn’t resist and began challenging the nearby Exploration Bureau staff watching the match.

Due to Zhang Fang, there were quite a few card enthusiasts within the Exploration Bureau.

After being challenged by Alice, they didn’t hesitate to accept.

Thus, the current scene occurred.

Alice was still using that Magical Girl deck.

Though, since her last duel with Tang Lili, Alice’s deck had undergone some subtle changes.

An Hai took interest in Alice’s field.

Having just lost to Shen Sui, he was eager to relieve some pent-up frustration.

Alice’s deck type wasn’t something he often encountered—how could it not pique his curiosity?

Thus, as Alice finished her duel, An Hai stepped forward with an invite.

"Shall we have a match too?" An Hai smiled as he invited Alice.

Alice instinctively looked at Shen Sui.

She knew An Hai was Vivian’s brother in this world.

Besides, he seemed to have had his XP altered because of her.

Vivian had scolded her numerous times about this.

So, upon An Hai’s duel invitation, Alice’s first thought was that he was here for revenge.

If she hadn’t spoken too much earlier, Lu Ya wouldn’t have become the rebellious pet.

But thinking further, if he wanted trouble, he wouldn’t have waited until now.

Could it be frustration from losing to Shen Sui and venting on me?

Alice was full of suspicion.

Having experienced many worlds, she mastered expression management and showed no oddity.

Alice accepted An Hai’s duel invitation without hesitation.

She never feared a duel, regardless of the opponent.

"Alright!" Alice replied with a cheerful smile.

As An Hai and Alice began their duel, Wang Ming brought information about the buffer zone instance opening tomorrow.

"World No. 13?"

Shen Sui looked at the enemy’s background on the files and fell into contemplation.

World No. 13 was a Victoria-style game world.

It was the steam punk world where Shen Sui’s first opponent in the promotion tournament, Wang Zhendao, was from.

It’s a world divided distinctly.

In ordinary people’s eyes, it’s a somewhat difficult world, laden with bloody factories.

But deeper in this world lies a group of powerful extraordinary beings.

At the top of these extraordinaries lies a group of Evil Gods.

"Could it be an Evil God has emerged?" Shen Sui pondered aloud, touching his chin.

Given the current level of Life Card Masters, ordinary enemies wouldn’t necessitate Wang Ming seeking help.

Thus, Shen Sui naturally thought of those Evil Gods.

Shen Sui hadn’t played this game for long and even requested a refund directly.
