Earth's Best Gamer

Chapter 405: Allocation of Invitations

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yes, even though Ji Ye had the Healing talent, a core player who was in the leadership position died in the advancement test.

She was exactly Chu Yin, who should’ve been at the meeting!

Chu Yin had always kept a low profile in Dragon City, but it didn’t mean that her contributions were trivial. In fact, her battle song always sounded at the most critical moments in every battle. In particular, after she defeated Zhong Zhou and left her past behind, she became a director of the music department together with Zhou Yu.

On the battlefield against Fang La this time, Chu Yin played an important role as one of the top heroes with multiple musical instruments that contained Transcendent power.

Due to that, she attracted the attention of Fang La’s troops.

Dozens of cultists, led by several generals, launched suicide attacks on her. She was heavily wounded even though she was protected by ten Iron Buddhas.

At that time, Ji Ye happened to be fighting Fang La in the cave, and his Healing talent was cooling down after he treated his arm. He was unable to save Chu Yin.

According to the statistics of Su Nongying’s Registration Book, Chu Yin’s contribution in the battle only ranked lower than Ji Ye’s and Li Qing’s.

However, she was already dead, so all her rewards were gone.

Also, since Chu Yin had already died once from a Guan City settlement and was reborn on the Twin Dragon Island, she could not even stay in a settlement of the southwestern province this time. She had to make a living in a completely strange settlement as she did when she first came to the Twin Dragon Mount Fort...

“That’s exactly what I’d like to discuss with you.”

“Of the fifteen invitations, I’ll give eight to the players who made the greatest contribution to the settlement and died in the battle.”

“I’ll invite them back to Dragon City!” Ji Ye looked around and said.

It was worth mentioning that the invitations could be given both to the non-players and to those who were already on the Land of Inheritance so that they would be reborn in their original settlement.

Chu Yin had indeed died.

However, since it was her second death, she couldn’t come to the Land of Inheritance until ten days later.

If Ji Ye gave one of the invitations to her, then theoretically speaking, Chu Yin would be reborn in the Temple of Providence of Dragon City.

Although she would lose all her EXP and Honor, Dragon City would keep a record of her contribution and even her spoils in the battle.

So, it wouldn’t take long for her to regain her strength.

“Well...”

After hearing Ji Ye’s decision, the others wore complicated expressions. Some were happy, some were hesitant, and some uneasy.

“I have two invitations. I can take them out too...”

Su Nongying suddenly opened her mouth and was about to say something.

“Wait for me to finish...”

Ji Ye, however, interrupted Su Nongying for the first time.

“Of the seven remaining invitations, I’ll give three to special talents that our settlement need, two to my family members, and the last two for auctions!”

What Ji Ye said next stunned all the other participants.

When Ji Ye offered eight invitations to revive the dead players, they actually had complicated feelings.

They were both moved and caught in a dilemma.

Truth be told, could Ji Ye have been the only one who realized that the dead players could be revived with the invitations?

Maybe most of them hadn’t thought about it because Ji Ye convened the meeting too quickly, but some must have thought of it.

However, even if they thought of it, they probably wouldn’t do it, because the invitation to the Land of Inheritance was too valuable.

So far, more than fifteen million people on Earth were qualified as players, but they were still a very low percentage of the enormous total population.

In particular, the headcount of the fourth batch was different from that of the previous batches.

Clearly, only the settlements that became Transcendent and passed the A Hundred Vying Barges test could have it.

Judging from the difficulty of Dragon City’s test, it was hard for the mediocre settlements to pass it.

It meant that the total headcount of the fourth batch would significantly decline, and the future headcount might continue to drop!

Under such circumstances, the people on Earth who controlled wealth and power probably couldn’t sit around anymore.

Even though they could buy the items that the players exchanged with Rare Honor to treat themselves, live a longer life, and even rejuvenate themselves, the changes caused by the Land of Inheritance were threatening their positions.

Take Su Mingcheng, who had been listed as the new richest man of the southwestern province, for example. Although he was a magnate in the first place, his company probably would’ve bankrupted if he hadn’t cooperated with the Twin Dragon Island.

For the richest men on Earth, in order to change the situation, the only way was obviously to be chosen as players!

In the first three rounds, elites of the society were picked in the first round, and they were almost all rejected because of their age. The following two rounds were basically random. They didn’t have any privileges even though they were wealthy and powerful.

But in the fourth round, Dragon City had special invitations!

It was not an exaggeration to say that a lot of people were willing to trade half or even all their belongings for an invitation.

Therefore, the invitations that the participants of the meeting had could mean plenty of shares of an international company, the marriage license to the only heir of a top family enterprise, the position of a leader in an important organization, or all of them!

Were the invitations overrated?

Of course not!

It was because those invited wouldn’t be going to regular settlements, but to Dragon City, which was the only Transcendent settlement of Earth and the one that was most likely to move further on the Land of Inheritance.

For the men who were capable, if they had access to Dragon City, they were confident of making as great achievements on the Land of Inheritance as they did on Earth so that they could become the core members or even be part of the leadership team of Earth’s most promising settlement on the Land of Inheritance. After all, in the terms of the Land of Inheritance, they were the “top heroes” in modern society!

Exactly because the invitations were so valuable, the other meeting participants wore complicated expressions when Ji Ye proposed to revive eight players with his invitations.

If Ji Ye were going to do that, it would seem selfish for them to keep their invitations for their own purposes.

Not all of them intended to sell the invitations for money.

Most of them had planned to give the invitations to their closest ones.

However, compared to the players who made great contributions to Dragon City and died, it would be a waste of the invitations to give them to the rookies who had no experience on the Land of Inheritance. Besides, some of them must’ve planned to sell the invitations or make deals with them!

After that, Ji Ye spoke of how he would use the other seven invitations...

Two for his relatives, which meant that he allowed them to give the invitations to their family members, and two for auctions, which meant that he didn’t mind them selling the invitations for money.

Everybody at the meeting was too smart to miss Ji Ye’s implication.

Maybe they didn’t say anything, but they were now more confident of Dragon City’s future than ever!

In fact, considering Ji Ye’s authority in Dragon City, if he had ordered them to submit their invitations and let him assign them, nobody at the meeting would show any objection.

However, Ji Ye knew very well that nobody could be completely selfless.

Maybe he could make the best use of the invitations by taking advantage of his influence in the settlement.

For example, he could revive the dead core players or invite the internationally renowned talents to Dragon City.

However, in that way, the hearts of the core players of Dragon City might change.

If the invitations were used up, he could always get them again.

However, if people lost faith in him, he could hardly get it back!

“However...

“I do hope that whoever you give your invitation to, you must make it clear to them that no matter how rich or powerful they are on Earth, they should remember their identity in Dragon City after they come!”

After everybody relaxed again, Ji Ye spoke rather solemnly.

Everybody at the meeting was a central member of Twin Dragon Island. Half of them were even from the first batch. They all had a lot of power and were responsible for a certain department.

Their families would definitely have more privileges and a better starting point than regular players did after arrival.

Ji Ye didn’t object to that. Absolute fairness was impossible, and he didn’t intend to enforce that.

He simply didn’t want any of the newcomers to be arrogant just because someone was backing them up.

“Weird...”

Mister Bug, who was delightedly considering whether he should give his invitation to his brother who grew up on the same street or his cousin who always admired him as a kid and who was a PhD student at this moment so that he wouldn’t always make stupid mistakes, couldn’t help but tremble.

“Why do I feel that my back is so cold?”
