Chapter 963: First Stage, Boss Selection!

【Player, do you choose to use the Special Identity Card to serve as the Boss for the Gatekeeping Event?】

Upon hearing the prompt from the Game Space,

Gu Xuan did not agree immediately.

After a moment of thought, he asked the Game Space:

"I have reviewed the gameplay of the Boss Gatekeeping mode. Every player in the Game Space can attempt to break through and challenge the Boss,"

"So after I use the Special Identity Card, can I serve as the Boss in Gatekeeping mode while also acting as a player attempting to break through?"

Gu Xuan asked this because he had his own ideas.

In the Boss Gatekeeping mode, the Boss is served by an intelligent avatar of the Game Space or by top-tier players from various nations who have obtained the Special Identity Card.

Ordinary players are responsible for breaking through, while Boss players are responsible for gatekeeping.

Players who break through receive rewards based on the levels they clear.

Players who gatekeep receive rewards based on the number of levels they defend.

So, could he...

Claim both rewards?

As soon as Gu Xuan posed this question,

the Game Space

suddenly fell silent,

with no response for a long while.

Gu Xuan blinked, looking at the azure panel before him as if it had frozen.

He felt somewhat puzzled.

Had he asked the Game Space until it crashed?

After a while,

just as Gu Xuan thought

the Game Space would not reply and was preparing to use the Special Identity Card to become one of the Gatekeeping Bosses,

he suddenly heard a prompt from the Game Space again.

【Game rules do not specify that one cannot participate in the event with both identities simultaneously.】

So that means it is allowed?

Gu Xuan was delighted.

"My situation must be quite special. What exactly do I need to do?"

Gu Xuan asked the Game Space players again.

Quickly,

the Game Space provided the participation process.

A player serving as the Boss

only needs to successfully defend one level in the first stage

to continue serving as the Gatekeeping Boss for the second stage.

Similarly, for players attempting to break through, after clearing the first level guarded by the Boss,

they can proceed to clear the second level guarded by the Boss.

Gu Xuan can first use his ordinary player identity to attempt to break through; after failing, he can use the Special Identity Card to serve as the Boss for gatekeeping.

Of course, since the Special Identity Card remains valid until Gu Xuan fails at gatekeeping,

he can also alternate between gatekeeping and breaking through simultaneously...

Gu Xuan rubbed his chin with his right hand.

After thinking for a moment, he slapped his thigh.

He decided to break through and gatekeep at the same time.

When serving as the Boss, he would crush the players attempting to break through.

When acting as a player attempting to break through, he would crush the Boss.

Just thinking about it was fascinating.

Plus, he could claim double rewards.

For such a good thing, he would definitely do it!

Live streaming is also allowed in the event arena.

With the experience from previous times,

Gu Xuan was now considered a veteran streamer.

He calmly opened the live stream room.

The bullet comments instantly flooded in!

"Caught him! Caught him! I knew it; a big shot like him would definitely not miss an event like Boss Breaking Through!"

"I wonder what monstrous generals the big shot will bring out in the Boss Breaking Through event."

"We don't know, and we don't dare to ask, but according to the event introduction from the Game Space, the Bosses in this mode are all formidable. Their skills are stitched together, capable of producing an effect far greater than one plus one!"

"Normally, the big shot can take on the entire field with just one general, but every Boss is designed to take on the entire field. When two generals capable of taking on the entire field clash, who will win and who will lose is truly unknown..."

"I feel the probability of the big shot winning should be higher. After all, the first stage of this mode is three players taking on one Boss."

With the big shot's own generals plus his teammates, taking down one Boss should be simple."

"Indeed, if even the big shots can't pass the first level, how many in the entire game space could possibly clear it?"

Gu Xuan watched the live stream's barrage,

chatting for a moment with his legion of fans.

As soon as ten o'clock struck,

the game space's announcement echoed in his ears:

【Welcome, player, to the Boss Gatekeeping Mode!】

【Matching you with a first-level challenger!】

【Please wait!】

The game space's announcement fell silent,

and in an instant,
