Chapter 75: God-Favored Game (Part 3)

~7 min read 1,270 words

In the dead of night, countless silver Anchor Chains suddenly appeared in the sky above Weilan Xing!

Xiao Mi had been sleeping soundly in Su Xi's arms, but the moment the Anchor Chains appeared, she rubbed her eyes and woke up, then gently nudged Su Xi, "Big Sister, wake up."

Su Xi opened her eyes, "What is it, Xiao Mi?"

Xiao Mi said, "The new game is about to descend. At the very beginning, there will be skill rewards hidden inside the gift boxes on those Anchor Chains."

Su Xi looked around, but could see nothing.

Xiao Mi pointed at the sky, "They are coming down right now. There should be a limited quantity, so Big Sister, try your best to grab those black boxes!"

"Black boxes, got it. Good." Su Xi strapped Xiao Mi to her back, signaled to Ge En, and together they flew toward the sky.

Once she flew into the air, she discovered that quite a few players had also noticed the descent of the new game.

Su Xi said to Ge En, "After the Anchor Chains come down, they will carry gift boxes. Grab the black ones; don't take anything else."

"Understood," Ge En replied.

"Can Xiao Mi grab them?" Su Xi asked.

Xiao Mi nodded, "I can grab them."

She took out a Small Storage Bag, "It's useless for me to grab them, so I can give them to Big Sister."

"Thank you, Xiao Mi." Su Xi kissed her little face.

【Host, the game is updating!】 Er Miao reminded Su Xi.

Su Xi opened the system and saw a glowing progress bar for the game update on the system screen.

One by one, the Anchor Chains, carrying spatial rifts with them, descended from the high sky.

Su Xi said to Ge En, "It has started."

Ge En used Teleportation to reach a higher position, watching those Anchor Chains. Not every chain had a gift box; only a small portion did. Moreover, the gift boxes they carried were not black, but mostly colorful with exquisite packaging.

He ignored those colorful gift boxes and continued his search.

Suddenly, he stopped; there was a very ordinary black box tied to an Anchor Chain.

He immediately went over and snatched the black box.

Su Xi received a notification immediately—【Limited Treasure Box 1/5】.

"Just like you said, there is a quantity limit; we can only grab 5."

Xiao Mi nodded, "So Big Sister should only grab the black ones, and Xiao Mi can grab more of the other gift boxes."

As she spoke, she turned into a little white mouse, darting rapidly between the chains, and everywhere she passed, all the gift boxes were collected into the Small Storage Bag.

【Host, there is a black one on the Anchor Chain directly in front of you.】 Er Miao reminded Su Xi.

Su Xi immediately went over and collected the black gift box.

Wang Weilin contacted Su Xi through the system—【The God-Favored Game has started updating. Did you see those Anchor Chains?】

【I saw them. Grab the gift boxes on them; I feel like they should be useful.】 Su Xi didn't mention the black gift boxes; after all, this information came from Xiao Mi, and she didn't want to expose Xiao Mi's uniqueness.

Human hearts are unpredictable; she could vouch for herself, but she couldn't be certain that others wouldn't have designs on Xiao Mi just like she did.

Wang Weilin replied immediately—【Good, I'm grabbing them now.】

Soon, another message came—【There is a quantity limit; there are only 5.】

Su Xi replied—【Same here.】

Geng Shu joined the chat—【Try to grab the inconspicuous ones—black, gray, transparent. The flashy ones only contain supplies. I grabbed a gray one, and it had equipment inside.】

Wang Weilin—【Received!】

Zhang Tu—【Oh no, the gift boxes are starting to disappear.】

After all the Anchor Chains had descended, the entire game finished updating.

The previous game was called 【Lost Frontier】, and now it has updated to—【God-Favored Game.】

Xiao Mi returned, turned back into human form, and handed the bulging Small Storage Bag to Su Xi, "Big Sister, here you go."

"Thank you, my precious Xiao Mi." Su Xi took the Small Storage Bag, "When Big Sister has some free time, I'll make you something delicious."

"Okay." Xiao Mi leaned into Su Xi's arms and yawned, "Xiao Mi is going to sleep now."

"Mm." Su Xi moved the baby carrier to her front, held Xiao Mi, and opened the System Space.

Inside were five black Treasure Boxes.

Ge En returned and said to Su Xi, "These black ones are very hard to find; you can only find one in about ten thousand Anchor Chains."

"What are these Anchor Chains?" Su Xi looked down at Xiao Mi in her arms; she was already asleep, looking incredibly cute.

Ge En replied, "Those Anchor Chains carry the aura of rules."

"What aura of rules?" Su Xi didn't understand.

Ge En replied, "It is the power that only gods can master, the power that can change the world."

"So that must be why it's called the God-Favored Game." Su Xi opened her player information.

【Host, the god you have contracted with is—Unknown.】 Er Miao was also puzzled.

Su Xi clicked on the two characters for 'Unknown', 【What does this mean?】

Soon, a prompt popped up for the two characters 'Unknown'—【You have not yet gained the recognition of a god. Please, player, strive to level up and gain the god's affirmation through excellent performance.】

【Heh!】 Su Xi chuckled and said to Ge En, "We didn't get the god's recognition."

Ge En was also speechless, "How are we supposed to play this?"

"Who knows? Let me ask Geng Shu and the others." Su Xi opened the chat room—【Can you guys see your god's information? I'll go first: I was rejected by my god and didn't get their recognition.】

【I sympathize with you!】 Wang Weilin said—【My god is Feiende Beiluote.】

Zhang Tu—【My god is Aoting.】

Geng Shu—【Tang Yuan.】

Wang Weilin—【Feels a bit like a pseudonym, not a real name.】

Geng Shu—【The true names of gods all carry Divine Power; how could I possibly tell you casually?】

Su Xi—【Whether it's a true name or not doesn't matter; the main thing is that the god has acknowledged you all. My god doesn't even have a fake name. I still have to work hard to level up to gain Its acknowledgment.】

Zhang Tu—【Don't be anxious, it will be fine once your level goes up.】

Geng Shu—【Is it related to you only leveling up the system? Isn't your host level always at zero?】

Su Xi—【... It's possible.】

Wang Weilin—【I have a mission to head to the Number Seven Secret Realm. What about you all?】

Su Xi—【Sigh! I don't have any missions; my god hasn't even acknowledged me.】

Geng Shu—【I'm also going to the Number Seven Secret Realm, let's team up.】

Zhang Tu—【Me too.】

Su Xi—【Can you guys take me with you? I'll level up a bit first; if it's inconvenient, just pretend I didn't say anything.】

Geng Shu—【What do you mean by inconvenient? We are a team to begin with, hurry over.】

Su Xi—【Alright, coming right away!】

Su Xi said to Ge En: "I am going to do a mission with them; are you going to find a mission for yourself, or come with me?"

Ge En replied: "I'll be on my own, it's more convenient."

After Su Xi and Ge En separated, she went to find Wang Weilin and the others.

The entrance to the Number Seven Secret Realm was a pitch-black gate, with undead patterns carved onto it.

Geng Shu said: "It should be a game related to the undead."
