Chapter 724 – World Congress – Part 4

Zhang Mengyao felt the explanation about the Game was unnecessary at this point. They had gone through the Game for almost a year, and it did not matter anymore the reason why the Game started. If she wanted to know something, it was the purpose of the Game. However, she could get the answer from that little explanation. The Game was made for people with no power.

Zhang Mengyao had gone through several Survival Games, and she had seen the other worlds. Whether the world that had gone through the Game or the world that had yet to experience the Game. She found that the humans in the other worlds were more powerful than them. They could use mana and spell without the help of the system.

Through the system, the strong get stronger, but the weak could catch up to the strong. In other words, the Game was a tool to balance the worlds, giving a chance for everyone to have equal power. Zhang Mengyao interpreted the Game that way after a little explanation from the System.

'But why would the System summon the zombie next to us? What about the advanced technology we have?' She felt like the Game was disorganized and killed more than half of the population on Earth.

Seventy-three factions from all of Earth were too little considering the population on Earth that reached ten billion. It was less than total countries in the world before the Game even, so she did not think the Game was effective enough unless the Game was purposely reducing the number of people.

The other booth also broke into a discussion, but they had no way to know what the others were thinking about. The System also did not continue for a while, letting the participant proceed with the new information.

After a while, the World Congress continued.

[That is the only information The System can share with the players, everything else, you have to find it out yourself. The next issue is an event. Since Earth has entered Stage-2 of the Game, the System will celebrate it by holding a competition between the factions with a big reward. Usually, the event is a fighting tournament between the players where the faction will send five representatives to fight in the tournament. However, The System detected a player that grew up out of the System's prediction, the player with the highest level on Earth, so the fighting competition is quite unfair. The System considers canceling the fighting competition and comes up with a new event.]

The System's announcement paused there, and it caused a stir in every booth. The person with the highest level on Earth was enough to create a stir in the auditorium. If not for the barrier that blocked the noise, the auditorium would get too noisy. The main concern is that the gap between the highest and second-highest levels must be significant, or else, the System would not consider it unfair competition. The factions tried to find this person and started to scan at each other.

Zhang Mengyao, Kang Xue, and Cao Jingyi looked at each other. It was a lie if they were not curious about this highest-level player. "For some reason, I think he is the highest level player." Kang Xue muttered in a low voice.

"For sure, it's Lord Tang Shaoyang." Lu An chimed in with confidence. "I have been with him since the beginning of the Game, and he never ran away from zombies. You guys should know he never ran away from a fight, whether being outnumbered or not."

When Lu An mentioned the last part, Zhang Mengyao remembered the fight against the zombie horde. Not just her, Cao Jingyi, Wei Xi, Li Na, and Liang Suyin remembered the fight that lasted for five days. Tang Shaoyang did not sleep because they had to face two zombie hordes.

"Lord Tang Shaoyang is in another world now, and I bet he is wreaking havoc there, leveling up crazily." Lu An added calmly. His confidence in Tang Shaoyang was unshakeable, so he believed the variant the System talked about was Tang Shaoyang.

"I can't refute that." Cao Jingyi agreed with Lu An. "However, we can't be careless and still be cautious of others. Lord Tang Shaoyang is not the only one who has a chance to enter the other worlds but the others too. We can't assume things as it may backfire us unless we know Lord Tang Shaoyang's current level."

"That for sure." Kang Jiayi agreed with Cao Jingyi's view. "We will know about that once Lord Tang Shaoyang returns from the other world. For now, let's focus on congress and be cautious of the others too."

"Yeah, we have to be cautious of the other VIPs. If the highest level player is not on our side, this player is among the other ten VIP groups." Zhang Mengyao agreed to be cautious, but her heart told her this player was Tang Shaoyang. 'Maybe because I miss him….' She thought to herself. 

[Due to privacy issues, The System will not disclose the name and the level of the person that breaks the balance on Earth. So for the event, The System comes up with a balanced game, Battle Royal. The participants will be teleported to a new dimension, and the players will fight there until the last group standing.]

[In the Battle Royal, a faction can send ten people into the new dimension, and all participants will have their level and attributes reset to level 1. Keep in mind the participants will retain their Bloodline, Class, Talent, and Skills. The System will try to balance the event, but we can't deny the player's effort in obtaining those perks. The System will send a guide concerning the Battle Royal to all factions for more details about the Battle Royal.]

[Of course, the players can choose to continue with the fighting competition event as well. The System will give the players the freedom to select the event. The following agenda is Voting Event. The VIP factions have thirty votes, and the remaining factions have ten votes. Before we proceed with the voting, the players will be given two hours for a discussion so that all factions can agree on which even do you want to select. The player can follow the guide to turn off the barrier on your booth.]

After that, a big screen popped out above the platform. It was the timer, the remaining time until the voting.
