I Can See All The Bosses' Drops-Chapter 835 - 811: Unconventional Election Rules, Ten Lin Yis
"This time, the fourth round of the Alliance Leader selection is divided into three stages to test the candidates' abilities in three different areas."
Above the Divine Hall, the elder began introducing the election rules to Lin Yi and the others:
"The first stage will start shortly: look!"
At that moment, a light projection suddenly appeared on one side of the hall.
What it showed was the floating giant stone and the ten ladders reaching towards the sky.
Zhang Xinying and others were not present.
The elder continued:
"The first stage is the Heaven-Ascending Ladder."
"When the time comes, they will simultaneously ascend the ladder towards the finish line."
"This test examines the candidates' willpower and endurance."
"The first five to complete the ladder will advance to the next round."
The elder then looked at Lin Yi and the others and said:
"As Judges, you must vote based on the candidates' performance during this process."
"Select the five candidates you believe are the best."
"I will then choose the five with the highest votes as the backup candidates."
After saying this, the elder finally looked at Lin Yi:
"You, as the Saint Master, have a special privilege here; you can appoint one person directly to the list of backup candidates for the first stage."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi was overjoyed:
"Is there really such a good thing?"
...
Time: 11:30
The rules for the first stage of the Alliance Leader final selection [Heaven-Ascending Ladder] were simultaneously announced on the official website.
The news immediately sparked a heated discussion online:
"This thing is nicely called the Heaven-Ascending Ladder, but isn't it just climbing a mountain? What's so comparable about this."
"It's about who has the perseverance to last until the end."
"But this is in a game, people using game pods could walk for days and nights without getting tired!"
Nevertheless, many found some issues from the official game rules:
"The rules only state that participants ascend the Heaven-Ascending Ladder, without saying they can't interfere with each other..."
Once this conclusion was made, an uproar arose on the internet.
When someone revisited the official competition rules, it indeed didn't mention anything about not interfering with each other.
This means the challenge isn't just climbing the Heaven-Ascending Ladder, but dealing with attacks during the climb, right?
However, since the official hadn't published a map of the Heaven-Ascending Ladder yet, everything remained speculative by the players.
What if everyone is spaced apart, after all?
...
Time: 11:40
The official betting activity ended, and with the summary of support rates from all the world battle zones, the support rate for each person was announced simultaneously:
1№. King Caesar (Fuguo War Zone) Support Rate: 27%;
2№. Emperor Pu (Russian War Zone) Support Rate: 25%;
3№. Shengshi's Drunkard (Hua Country War Zone) Support Rate: 19%;
4№. Lemon Rabbit (Hua Country War Zone) Support Rate: 8%;
5№. Adolf (Fa War Zone) Support Rate: 8%;
6№. Chavez (Indonesia War Zone) Support Rate: 6%;
7№. Sea King Nate (Middle East War Zone) Support Rate: 4%
8№. Brahma Heaven Emperor (Indonesia War Zone) Support Rate: 1%;
9№. Kovaron (Southwest War Zone) Support Rate: 1%;
10№. Henry (Australian War Zone) Support Rate: 1%.
(Note: The above information is for reference only).
King Caesar unexpectedly topped the list, surprising everyone. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
However, those in the United States War Zone wouldn't find it odd.
Because the United States War Zone was completely wiped out this time, among all the contestants on this list, they would prefer King Caesar to take the position of Alliance Leader rather than watch their opponent, the Russian War Zone, ascend to it.
Yet only the United States War Zone and some other zones with grudges against the Russian War Zone would feel this way.
...
Time: 11:50
As everyone waited eagerly at the official website, the official live broadcast finally opened.
In the main view:
The floating giant stone and the ten ladders reaching the sky were prominently visible.
But when everyone looked at the ten figures on the stone, they were dumbfounded.
The bullet screen immediately filled with:
"What the hell~"
"What the hell~"
"What the hell~"
...
Amidst them were some:
"Feng Hua Master? Damn, how is he here too."
"No way! Am I seeing things, why does it seem like there's Feng Hua Master everywhere."
"Is the official having a bug? Why does it look like all of them are Feng Hua Masters!"
"Ten Feng Hua Masters, what is this."
When they saw ten Feng Hua dressed in green Mage Robes on the screen, all the players who entered the live broadcast room first immediately exploded.
And the IDs above their heads were all replaced by numbers 1 through 10.
After realizing this wasn't an official bug, everyone seemed to immediately grasp one thing: preventing cheating!!!
Only now did people recall what the official rule about uniform outfits and professions for everyone meant.
Someone exclaimed:
"With this, not to mention us, even they don't know who's who now!"
"It seems the officials are preventing personal vendettas from entering the competition!"
Upon understanding this, the entire internet was in an uproar.
Especially after noticing the gap between the ten Heaven-Ascending Ladders was less than one meter, and when people revisited previous speculations, they reached a shocking conclusion:
That during the climb of the Heaven-Ascending Ladder, they could interfere with and eliminate those around them!!!
Everyone was moved by this.
But soon someone thought of a problem:
Isn't the official live stream supposed to open separate rooms for each contestant's perspective?
When someone exited the main perspective live room, they indeed found that they could view the live footage from the perspective of individual IDs.
This means viewers could infer the identity of others through these live perspectives.
But within the game...and then...
"Damn~"
In the Divine Hall, Lin Yi looked at the ten images of himself on the screen, his face full of confusion:
"This..."
At this moment, the elder's voice came through:
"To prevent unnecessary interference for you, these candidates will all be replaced with numbers."
"You only need to record their numbers based on their performance when climbing the Heaven-Ascending Ladder."
Lin Yi, harboring a glimmer of hope, suddenly asked a very crucial question:
"Can the person I designate to advance use their ID?"
But the elder's following answer left Lin Yi dumbfounded again:
"No."
"Before announcing the results, you must inform me of the person's number to designate them for advancement."
"Otherwise, it will be invalid, and no report will be considered a forfeit."
Lin Yi, who had just been happy for a few seconds, was now so depressed he wanted to spit blood.
The official is too cunning, isn't it?
Coming up with such a rule to prevent cheating.
No wonder they didn't announce the detailed rules before the event started;
No wonder everyone had to enter separately in advance;
This is to prevent pre-communication and cheating.
Babylon leaned over to Lin Yi at this time and quietly reminded:
"Hey kid, you don't even know your own woman's moves and habits?"
"Right!"
With Babylon's words, Lin Yi suddenly brightened up:
"How could I forget this."
'This is like spot the differences!'
Lin Yi believed, with his understanding of Zhang Xinying, he could definitely identify her through some habitual gestures or actions.
Lin Yi immediately started carefully observing those lined-up versions of himself.
But since everyone was in different states of strength now, with no actions to refer to, Lin Yi instantly found himself failing.
It seems that to identify Zhang Xinying and ensure her advancement, he must wait until the event starts and they begin moving.
Now Lin Yi could only pray that Zhang Xinying wouldn't get eliminated before he recognized her.
Otherwise, there truly would be no salvaging it.
