Chapter 904: Leave it to fate to decide
“But won’t this be a case of throwing the baby out with the bathwater?” Before Su Yu could speak, Zhong Feng had already raised an objection.
He glanced around at all the players present and said earnestly, “The reason we have everyone come to the Wild Lands to hone their skills is first to strengthen everyone’s abilities, to create a sense of crisis; in this place, it is indeed possible for us to die, which is completely different from being in the game;
The second and most important point is that we need the Warcraft materials from here to manufacture equipment.
Due to the edict from the Holy Silver Federation, we Seventh Order Blue Star Cultivators cannot act against the natives of Skru, and this ‘native’ includes the Warcraft.
Nowadays, we only have two ways to obtain Warcraft materials: the first is trade with the Dragon Race and the White-Headed Eagle; the second is for all of you to personally take action and hunt in the Wild Lands.
Losing one channel of supply will have a significant impact on us.”
Listenting to Zhong Feng’s explanation, all the Sixth Order players fell into silence, not speaking.
Of course, they all didn’t want to die; no one wished to perish in a foreign land.
But acquiring the Warcraft materials was also very important.
The billions of lower-class people on Blue Star gave up their resources to make them into Sixth Order powerhouses; this was their responsibility to fulfill.
So they also did not know what would be the best course of action.
Su Yu’s brow furrowed as he stroked his chin, “What Prime Minister Cao Cao said makes sense, with the enemy’s daunting strength, we shouldn’t let Sixth Order players just die for nothing;
But what Zhong Feng said also makes sense, we can’t throw the baby out with the bathwater and slow down our equipment acquisition.
This is really hard to handle!”
Zhong Feng asked, “So what do you think we should do? Or which option do you lean towards more?”
“Hard to say,” Su Yu shook his head.
But he glanced at Sky Dragon standing beside him and immediately added, “Maybe we have another method to resolve this issue.”
“Oh? What method?”
“Flip a coin, heads or tails,” said Su Yu seriously. “If it’s heads, we follow Prime Minister Cao Cao’s suggestion; if it’s tails, we listen to Zhong Feng, leaving it all to fate to decide.”
“Flip a coin?” Except for Sky Dragon, all the players present were stunned.
Wasn’t this far too hasty?
Could they really entrust the lives and deaths of countless Sixth Order players to a single coin? How could this be acceptable?
But while they were still in shock, Su Yu had already taken a regular one-yuan coin from his necklace and placed it into Sky Dragon’s hand.
“Sky Dragon, you’ll be the one to flip the coin,” Su Yu encouraged.
Sky Dragon had the best luck; if she were to flip the coin, there was a great chance of getting the best outcome.
“Me…?” Sky Dragon felt taken aback.
Things had developed too quickly, and she was a bit overwhelmed.
Nevertheless, she closed her eyes and immediately flipped the coin upward.
The coin traced a beautiful arc in the sky and eventually landed on the ground with a “ding.”
After spinning a few times on the rocky ground, the coin finally lay still.

Everyone immediately looked at the coin, only to find that it was tails up.
Obviously, if they were to believe in fate, then they had to follow Zhong Feng’s advice and maintain the status quo.
“Uh… isn’t this a bit too hasty?” Prime Minister Cao Cao stroked his beard, “I really feel that deciding by coin toss isn’t reliable.”
Zhong Feng also tried to smooth things over, “Although the result of the coin toss is in my favor, I also feel we shouldn’t rely solely on a coin toss for decision-making, no matter which side the coin landed on I would think the same.”
Su Yu shook his head, “No, I think you all might have misunderstood my intention.
The reason I had Sky Dragon flip a coin was to help everyone quickly reach a consensus, even if it’s wrong we can say it was ‘fate’s decision’.”
We’ll first follow the route given by “Fate’s Decision”, and if we come up with a better solution later, we can change our approach then.”
This is to avoid endless indecision and argument.”
“Okay, then we’ll go with that for now,” Prime Minister Cao Cao thought over what Su Yu had said and tentatively agreed to the idea.
Time was pressing, so they decided to go with that for now.
Once everyone returned to Blue Star, they could leverage the 12-fold time flow rate to discuss in detail what to do.
If they still hadn’t come up with a solution after returning to Blue Star, they would have to trust the decision made by the coin toss.
…
After discussing this matter, everyone sat down at the depths of the cave for a final rest.
While resting, they also waited for the last two players to arrive.
Half an hour later, one of the two remaining players arrived near the rendezvous point.
Sensing his arrival, Prime Minister Cao Cao asked Mr. Li to receive him, while the rest continued to rest.
Unconsciously, another one and a half hours passed.
It was 12 o’clock at noon.
Humm~
In the depths of the cave, the green amulets worn on the chests of Prime Minister Cao Cao and the Blue Star players lit up simultaneously, casting a hazy green glow.
Seeing this, everyone immediately knew the time limit for the final gathering had arrived.
It was also the sign that the space tunnel was open; now all they had to do was activate the amulets to return to Blue Star.
“Julia hasn’t arrived yet,” Zhong Feng was the first to frown over it.
The time limit had been reached, and out of all the players who should have been there, except for the three confirmed sacrifices of the laser pen, only Julia, the second-ranked female player from Oceania with the game nickname “Mother Kangaroo’s Fist,” had not arrived.
It was unclear whether she was delayed by something or if she had been sacrificed along the way.
Su Yu spoke up, “We can’t wait for her any longer. Let’s set off now and enter the final sanctuary as soon as possible.”
“Alright.”
All the players stood up together, and no one objected.
Prime Minister Cao Cao had been standing all along and didn’t sit down. He addressed everyone, “Be cautious after entering the final sanctuary. The Skrulls have completely lost their sanity; no one knows what they might pull off in the sanctuary. Remember, survival is the top priority!”
After saying this, he looked at Su Yu and Zhong Feng, “Su Yu, Zhong Feng, your task this time is very important—the safety of everyone depends on you two!”
“Don’t worry, we will do our utmost to protect everyone,” Su Yu and Zhong Feng replied together, both looking very serious.
…
Prime Minister Cao Cao was right; their task was indeed very important.
The main reason being—both Su Yu and Zhong Feng had to enter the sanctuary as well.
According to the rules of the “Final Sanctuary,” the highest strength limit of the sanctuary is based on the strength of the first participant who enters, and subsequent participants cannot exceed the strength of that first entrant.
Last time Sky Dragon was the first to enter the final sanctuary, and those who followed could only be lower in strength, not higher.
This was one of the important reasons why she could successfully clear it.
But this time it was different.
This time Su Yu had to be the first to enter the sanctuary; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to enter at all.
Su Yu being the first to enter would have one consequence—the Seventh Order from Skru Star could also enter the sanctuary!
If the Seventh Order among the Skrull people entered in large numbers, while the players from Blue Star were mainly of the Sixth Order, then the players from Blue Star would be gravely endangered.
