To ascend, I had no choice but to create games-Chapter 712 - 403

Chapter 712: 403

The spirit of mutual assistance in the game was fully demonstrated here, which greatly surprised Zhiyi Heavenly Lord.

“Incredible,” said Zhiyi Heavenly Lord as he fiddled with the chess piece in his hand, nearly polishing the determination within it to a sheen, “I always thought these mortals were incredibly greedy creatures, but to think that they would actually do this.”

“Yes, that’s what makes it interesting,” Fang Cheng said with satisfaction, “Greed and selflessness, brutality and benevolence, in the game, these players can display different forms, which is what makes them fascinating.”

Zhiyi Heavenly Lord looked at Fang Cheng, feeling that the other was different from before.

The once Great Heavenly Lord, like the true Heavenly Tao, was indifferent to everything but the Tao itself.

But now, the Great Heavenly Lord seemed quite approachable, making Zhiyi Heavenly Lord truly feel that the Fang Cheng in front of him was a Heavenly Lord, not just an aspect of the Heavenly Tao.

In his eyes, the Great Heavenly Lord became increasingly flawless, the profound and mysterious charm of the Tao emanating from him, benefiting Zhiyi Heavenly Lord as well.

The Great Heavenly Lord was indeed formidable to be able to comprehend the Tao here.

With heartfelt admiration, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord observed the situation below and suddenly said, “The result is out.”

Even the largest elephant can’t withstand the ferocious attack of ants.

And when there are millions of ants, each taking a bite, even the most formidable elephant can’t withstand such an assault.

Under the relentless attacks of the players, the Bishop’s stamina drained faster and faster, and their defense against the players’ onslaught became increasingly weary.

Their movements were still graceful and efficient, the power granted by the Gods still terrifying, but they became more and more overwhelmed in the face of the players’ attacks.

Finally, the first Bishop fell.

This Bishop, excessively fatigued, was decapitated by a player’s sneak attack. Amid the erupting mosaic, he excitedly raised his spoils of war and recorded the entire process.

However, he celebrated too soon.

The moment the Bishop was beheaded, an outburst of silent cheers erupted from the surrounding shadows of the East A, a new blasphemer was born before them, filling each shadow with joy and pushing the atmosphere of the banquet to its peak.

One shadow took the lead, walking straight towards the headless corpse of the Bishop. The black shadow completely submerged into the body and reconstituted the Bishop’s head.

The player, celebrating his victory, suddenly froze.

Turning his head stiffly, he saw the Bishop standing up again behind him, the armor gleaming even brighter, and the expressionless mask now more imposing than ever.

Too late to play his cards, the player was turned to ash by the newly resurrected Bishop and then scattered with the wind.

Having returned to his original position and regained strength, the Bishop looked at the entrance and said to the next player who walked in, “Next, it’s your turn.”

On the walls, the shadow’s revelry continued.

They held up their glasses high, celebrating the passing of a God and toasting to the future of mankind.

The player who succeeded in god-slaying returned to the safe house, bewildered, and then, completely puzzled, wrote down his experience and posted it in the Game Inn.

[I finally snatched the boss, and then obtained the boss’s head as my trophy. But what I didn’t expect was, the boss actually resurrected, then struck me down. Isn’t this where the game’s ending animation is supposed to play?]

Reply: [If it were just you chopping the boss and that was the end, I’d give “Card Heroes” a 9, but since he chopped you, that’s a masterpiece.]

[That’s right, what’s the difference between not finishing off in a game and being the dumb blond in horror movies? Oh, you’re not blond, just dumb and a bootlicker.]

[How dare you explain it like that! Besides, I chopped off his head, how is that not finishing him off!]

[Hmph, at that point you should have used strong alkali to soak his corpse for three days and three nights, and then bombard it continuously with your best skill, afterward taking it to some unknown corner of the Amazon rainforest, and then…]

“All right, we get it, you’ve passed CET-6.”

“Wait, I have a question. Although you’ve been chopped, you’re still a player who has killed a boss. Besides leveling up your own artifact, did you gain anything else?”

The player who had killed the boss checked out his loot and then, looking at the new item in his backpack, said, “I got a new Divine Artifact, and it’s bound, so I can’t give it to anyone else. It looks like this.”

The Divine Artifact obtained by the player looked like a strand of hair, except it was constantly shimmering with gold light, giving it an incredibly sacred feel.

“Holy Hair Bundle: Obtained from a demigod, this hair bundle emits a holy white light at all times. Bathed in this white light, your need for food is reduced to a quarter of the original, your physical strength recovers faster, you will spot dangers ahead more easily, you…”

After reading the series of descriptions for the artifact, the players on the forum collectively broke down.

It might not add any combat power, but it’s incredibly useful for navigating the Dark Forest!

According to related statistics, the highest death rate in the game comes from lack of food and water.

The deeper into the Dark Forest you go, the more food and water you need. Although a large number of players keep advancing into the depths and building safe houses there, the shortage of food and water remains a problem.

But with this Divine Artifact, players can go much farther—a huge positive buff.

Additionally, being able to see danger means that players can make better choices in random options, gather supplies more efficiently, avoid risks, and thus travel farther.

Its utility alone could make players T0 in this place, and the series of outrageous effects that followed made the players realize: no matter the game, battling bosses is always the best way to boost strength.

This boss is doomed!

Not even Jesus can stop them now!

I said it!

Inspired by the new Divine Artifact, the players went mad for the second wave.

Even though the newly ascended Bishops were stronger, the passion of the players could not be extinguished.

Driven by the artifact, they launched an all-out assault on the boss. Some players had condensed their bathroom and meal times to the minimum, all to have more opportunities to fight the boss and increase their chances of getting the last hit.

An unexpected tide of frenzy swept through.

The Speedrun Demonic Path began to be explored relentlessly, and it was finally time for the speedrunning masters to show their skills.

Previously, speedrunning was viewed as a niche within the game by average players. But now, they truly realized that speedrunning could rapidly increase the awakening level of their card heroes, better their chances at getting final hits on the boss (physically), and let them grab the Divine Artifacts they wanted, which would allow them to go farther in the actual game.

With multiple stimuli, the players of “Card Heroes” rapidly shifted towards hardcore gaming and displayed an even more hardcore state than typical games.

“You can disable all special effects when drawing cards, which can save you time on the draw animations, effectively doubling the effect. Remember not to use N cards, use A cards, the principle behind it is unclear.”

“I’ve checked, and the maps of the four outposts are different. But in this spot, you can find shortcuts. See here? There’s a trebuchet. Don’t jump at an angle when approaching it; instead, turn it four times, and then propel yourself over. That’ll land you right in the Bishop’s room. Although you’ll die upon impact, before dying, you can have a quick round of combat with the Bishop. So, don’t bring any construction decks, just rush it.”

“When fighting with the Bishop, you can duel his weapon first. If you win, you have a chance to obtain the Holy Sword.”

Reply: “Scammers die a whole family death!”

Watching the lively forum, Fang Cheng found that the players’ ideas were truly diverse.

But the players are doing this for the later exploration of the Dark Forest, so overall, there’s no big issue.

Now, all that’s needed is to watch the players take action. That will be enough.”
