Chapter 296 5 Qualifications Distribution
Chapter 296: Five Million Qualifications Distribution (asking for monthly tickets)
[Challenger Tips (All Channels): The game is about to issue a new round of player qualifications. Please visit the official website for details. 】
The original altar.
Qi Sheng released the latest announcement in the game.
The official website will simultaneously launch a 24-hour countdown for the issuance of qualifications.
There is no need to even publicize it to the outside world, the monster world has already become the focus of attention of all races on Earth.
An announcement in the game is bound to make headlines in news media of all ethnic groups.
Including a small update from some time ago.
Looking back at how we attracted new members in the early stages, we had to use the name of "Dark Land" to lure newcomers.
He no longer needs to do it himself to acquire players. As long as he has enough sacrificial power, after one announcement, members of all races on Earth will become players.
For the resettlement of 500 million newbies, he still chose the Rumbling Continent.
The area was now in the turmoil of war.
The virtual rune army returned to the small world with full health and fought against the mechanical army again.
Among them, the Virtual Rune Legion has a growth system that restrains the Mechanical Legion, and has also developed a large number of technologies that can infiltrate and control mechanical warriors, occupying an absolute advantage in the system.
The mechanical army on the other side has the divine gold rules and endless mechanical warriors, and has an absolute advantage in comprehensive strength.
The period when both sides are fighting is a good time for players to develop.
It won't happen that during the development process, a machine god suddenly appears and you are beaten up by a mechanical army.
This time, Qi Sheng chose a scene at the southern end of the Rumbling Continent as the initial growth location for new players.
……
Human Federation, Tianfeng City.
South District, slums (former contaminated quarantine area).
It was daybreak and Ning Shu was still curled up in his bed, sleeping soundly.
Just then, the phone suddenly rang.
Ning Shu opened his sleepy eyes, turned over, picked up the phone next to his pillow, and pressed the answer button:
"You unfilial son, you are still sleeping. The Monster World has issued qualifications. Hurry up and get up to get the qualifications."
My mother's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Upon hearing that the Monster World was going to issue qualifications again, Ning Shu lost all sleepiness and woke up instantly.
"Mom, I get it. Remember to grab it too."
"Hurry up, it will be too late if you don't go now."
After hanging up the phone, Ning Shu decisively pressed the Monster World official jump icon on the mobile phone desktop.
When he entered the qualification distribution page and saw the 21-hour countdown, he was speechless.
"It's really almost too late."
After complaining in his heart, he stood up quickly, reached out for the medicine bottle on the bedside table, poured out three pills from it, and swallowed them into his stomach.
This is a gene repair pill distributed by the Human Federation, and the technology comes from the Eclipse Tribe.
In his early years, the Southern Tianfeng District where he was located was contaminated by alien weapons during the Advent War, resulting in widespread genetic diseases in the area.
This is one of the reasons why his area was designated as a quarantine zone.
But with the help of environmental purification technology provided by the Eclipse Clan, the pollution problem can now be effectively curbed.
In this era, slums essentially no longer exist.
However, the construction of the new city has just started in the quarantine area, and other urban areas have a stereotyped backward impression of this place and habitually call it a slum.
In terms of genetic diseases, although the environment has improved, genetic diseases can still be inherited or passed down from generation to generation.
Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with a genetic disease and needed to take medication regularly.
The only way to completely cure it is to go to the moon and seek help from the creatures in the upper realm.
It is also because of the genetic disease that he has caused his mother a lot of worry since he was a child.
He works two jobs every day, one of which is a very dangerous pollution and radiation decontamination job, just to save money for him to go to the Eclipse Tribe.
But the speed of saving money is still too slow compared to the cost of treatment.
In this life, I can only hope to obtain the game qualification of Monster World as soon as possible, then enter the game to make a lot of money and heal my body.
Otherwise, there is a high probability that you will not live to 40.
His mother called and hoped that he would actively prepare to qualify, also for his future.
Because of his health problems, he couldn't find a job outside and could only live on the minimum living allowance. Gaming was his only source of income.
After Monster World was launched, the economies of other games completely collapsed.
Even members of all races who do not have player qualifications generally prefer to watch live broadcasts and read posts through the Monster World official website to learn everything about Monster World in advance.
Sinlands, Conquest, and Darklands, these three most popular games at the moment, are so crowded that it’s almost impossible to find any players online.
His mother hopes that he can earn medical expenses through the monster world.
This is also the direction my mother is working towards, and she will also participate in the fight for game qualifications this time.
My mother also said that if she got the qualification to play the game, she would quit all her jobs and concentrate on playing the game.
In fact, my mother was also an internet addict in her early years. There is still a game trophy at home that she won when she won the third place in the small region of "Rage".
But the income from games is not as high as the income from dangerous jobs in real life.
In order to save money for him, his mother gave up her former ideals, which is also a regret in Ning Shu's heart.
Looking back at the video footage of his mother participating in regional competitions, he felt that his mother was very talented, but it was a pity that she gave birth to an "unfilial son" like him.
I can't help at all and will only hold my mom back.
I got up and walked to the dining table, where was a pre-prepared lunch box that my mother had bought from outside.
After pressing the heating button, I found a note on the table:
(`皿) Remember to take your medicine on time, otherwise I will beat you. Mom is going to work, so be good at home.
Seeing the note, Ning Shu smiled knowingly.
He had never been beaten by his mother in his life... No, he was beaten once, but the baby was not aborted.
During the pregnancy check-up that year, the test results showed that there was about a 30% chance of inheriting a genetic disease, so I was recommended to get the vaccine.
My mother thought the chances were not high, and my father passed away in an accident during this period.
She's determined to get this child, all in.
In the end, I lost the bet.
In the third year after his birth, his genes mutated and translucent scales grew on his fingertips, like fish scales stuck to the skin.
My mother scratched the wound lightly with her fingernails, and blood oozed out of the wound.
The confirmation text on the genetic test report from the Children's Hospital made my mother cry uncontrollably.
As my mother said at the time, my mentality was broken.
The defective gene she carried did not show up in her, but it manifested itself as a dominant mutation in her children.
My mother said that she almost took him with her, but fortunately he survived.
Fortunately, he was born in an era where there was good in bad times.
The bad thing is that the atmosphere of the times is extremely depressing, and the crisis of alien arrivals is always weighing on the heads of all living beings.
I don’t know when another war will break out, or it may be a war of annihilation.
The good thing is that various technologies of this era are advanced, including medical technology.
There is a specific medicine that can suppress the problems in his body, but he needs to take gene repair pills twice a day, otherwise there is a risk of sudden death at any time.
Drip!
After heating, Ning Shu took out the pre-prepared food box, tore off the tin foil, and started to eat.
After eating and drinking, he sat down in front of the computer desk, opened the official website and started watching the players' live broadcasts.
My favorite is the live broadcast room of the Liver Emperor Group.
From the initial cafeteria battle to the current brotherhood, I have been following the plot for more than a year without realizing it.
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room was also very good, with all kinds of jokes in the comment section.
The only thing that worries him is the future direction of the Liver Emperor Group.
The current happiness will come to an end after the fifth training camp graduates, and they are about to step onto the front battlefield.
A melodramatic plot kill may appear at this stage.
The liver emperor group has feelings for these foreign trainees in the training camp, and he, who is "chasing the drama", also has feelings for them.
The humanoid husky Longgen, the excellent graduate of the cafeteria Tongzi, the evil-looking Guifeng, the devilish singer Yudu... After more than a year of companionship, this group of NPCs are no longer just data in his eyes.
"Shit, the more I think about it, the worse it gets."
Thinking that these brothers in the Liver Emperor Group might die in the front line, he felt a sense of urgency in the current live broadcast, which is one day less and less.
The only thing we can expect is that the brothers in the Hardworking Group will grow faster.
Once on the battlefield, I will be able to protect these good brothers.
But when he thought about the strong men of the Soul Return Clan who were at the semi-god level fighting on the battlefield, he felt that the current efforts of the Liver Emperor Group were not enough to change their fate.
Time is too tight.
He has too many thoughts and always tends to think the worst.
Even though he was watching such a happy live broadcast of the Live Emperor Group, he was almost suffering from depression.
At this time, he saw the players of the Liver Emperor Group resting in the camp on the live broadcast screen. He immediately sent a barrage, urging:
"Bricklayer, are you worthy of your name? Get up and work hard!"
But this barrage was drowned out by endless barrages the next second, not even a single ripple in the live broadcast room.
Ning Shu's emotions gradually dissipated while watching the live broadcast. The lively scenes in the live broadcast room made him laugh from time to time.
During this time, he would occasionally glance at the time in the lower right corner.
There were still 18 hours before the qualification was issued, so he decided to take a look at the forum's guide for beginners.
A lot of content has been memorized, but it is necessary to consolidate it again.
Although the probability of getting the qualification is very low, what if you succeed? You must seize the time then.
Leaving the Novice Village early means getting ahead.
If you leave the Novice Village late, you will only see other players and can only keep exploring outside.
And there is a high probability that you will see other players.
Therefore, a strategy for novices is extremely important, which can help them seize the opportunity to take the lead in advance.
Unfortunately, players who are preparing to compete for qualification generally have strategies, so it is not easy to seize the opportunity.
It was approaching noon.
Ning Shu got up and went to the kitchen to start working.
Due to health problems, he was unable to apply for any real job, nor could he provide any help to his mother.
The only thing I can do is to bring a meal for my mother every day at noon.
In fact, my mother is treated very well in her workplace. She is provided with free meals, free physical examinations and various medical services every year.
But this is his intention.
He always feels guilty towards his mother.
He remembers every bit of effort his mother has put in for him.
Since I was a child, my mother has shouldered everything on her own.
Other children have the support of their fathers and the shelter of a complete family, but he only has the frail figure of his mother.
She was busy at work during the day, and had to take care of his daily life when she came home at night. She even had to stay by his bedside all night when he was sick.
Mingming was an internet-addicted girl who knew nothing before giving birth to him, but she managed to bear the heavy pressure brought by his birth and raised him.
Every time he saw the heartache and helplessness in his mother's eyes, he wished he had never existed.
At least that way, she wouldn't have to run around for herself anymore.
But my mother never complained, she always smiled and said:
"As long as you are well, Mom will be satisfied. When you are cured and give me a grandson, we can form a team in the game and kill everyone."
Because of this, he wants to persist even if it is just to deliver a meal at noon every day.
Even though the food at my mother's workplace is good, even though she always says:
"Don't bother."
But he still wanted to do it stubbornly.
This was the only way he could repay her.
Coming to the refrigerator, he started to get busy.
The refrigerator contained ingredients that had been prepared last night, including delicious green peppers grown by the Green Wood Tribe, chicken breasts, a few plump mushrooms, and a handful of emerald green celery.
Ning Shu's movements in making lunch were slow but steady.
The chicken breast is cut into evenly thin strips, marinated with cooking wine, light soy sauce and starch, and set aside.
Remove the seeds from the green pepper and cut into thin strips, slice the mushrooms, and cut the celery into small sections at an angle.
After heating the pan, pour in a little oil, sauté the minced garlic, add the shredded chicken into the pan and stir-fry until it changes color, then add the vegetables and stir-fry over high heat, and finally drizzle a spoonful of "Haijing" imported from the fishing port city to enhance the flavor.
I originally wanted to buy cheap seafood exported from the fishing port city, but when I thought about the serious marine pollution problem recently, I gave up the idea.
The aroma soon filled the entire kitchen. He curled his lips and looked down at the plate.
My mother likes this dish the most. It is refreshing and not greasy, and goes well with rice.
The cooked dishes were carefully packed into the insulated lunch box. He also served a bowl of the yam and pork ribs soup that he had cooked in the morning. The soup was clear with a few wolfberries floating on top.
Finally, he pinched two rice balls and pressed them into the corners of the lunch box.
My mother sometimes gets busy and forgets to eat, so she always has the rice balls in her hand and can take a bite.
After packing up, he picked up the lunch box and opened the door.
The midday sun was a bit dazzling, so he squinted his eyes and walked towards the taxi stand.
Along the streets, the newly paved asphalt roads shone with a shiny black luster, and the roadside trees had just been planted, with their trunks still wrapped in supporting wooden frames, and their tender green branches and leaves swaying in the wind.
Further ahead, several brand new glass curtain wall buildings rise from the ground, reflecting the dazzling sunlight like huge mirrors, reflecting this transforming city.
But behind this bright and beautiful scene, there are still many old images that have not faded.
There are old tin houses scattered along the roadside, with the word "demolition" printed on the walls. Some of them have been torn into pieces, with twisted color steel plates piled on the roadside, revealing their rusty skeletons.
The roar of excavators came from not far away, accompanied by the sound of steel bars and concrete hitting each other. On the unfinished high-rise buildings, construction robots could be seen busy working in the dust.
The street corner stalls are still bustling with activity. The fruit carts are piled high with seasonal fruits and vegetables imported from the Green Wood Tribe. The proprietress shouts while skillfully weighing the fruits and vegetables for the customers.
At a breakfast shop not far away, steam was rising from the steamer. The freshly steamed buns were quickly packed into plastic bags and handed to passers-by in a hurry.
Several students in school uniforms ran past him laughing, their school bags bouncing behind them.
Compared to the outside world, the quarantine area where he lives is obviously more down-to-earth.
He has been to the outside world three times.
There are robots everywhere, as well as various 3D neon signs, and many restaurants have robot chefs. It's not right to say that the food is not delicious, because the food made by robots tastes great.
But I always feel that it lacks a bit of worldly flavor, which may be his psychological effect.
Walking slowly along the sidewalk, I passed a square under construction. The fence was printed with a rendering of the "New City Center". On the other side of the fence was still a skeleton of steel and concrete. The crane slowly turned and lifted another bundle of steel high up.
Amid the hustle and bustle of the alternation of the old and the new, this city is growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and you can see different scenes every time you go out.
After the quarantine is completely lifted, it can be foreseen that in the near future, the past dilapidation will become a thing of the past.
By then, the ancient atmosphere preserved in this city will also dissipate with the progress of the times.
Without giving it much thought, he walked to the taxi station and pressed the "Call" button on the pillar.
Soon, a free driverless car drove over from a distance and stopped in front of the station.
This is one of the benefits provided by the Human Federation to residents in the quarantine zone. They can use the driverless cars deployed in the city for free at various stations.
After the car door opened automatically, Ning Shu entered the back seat and entered his mother's workplace address on the screen map behind the main driver's seat.
The car door closed automatically and an electronic synthesized voice sounded:
"The location has been determined and we are heading to the destination."
The vehicle gradually accelerated. Ning Shu sat in the car, looking at the scenery outside the window, thinking about his own things.
He once came across a post in the Monster World forum.
The title is "The Gears of the Times, the Evolution from Agricultural Civilization to the Virtual Era."
The poster analyzed in detail the turning points of each historical stage in the post.
For example, the spice trade in the Age of Exploration, the steam engine in the Industrial Revolution, the Internet wave in the 20th century... and in the last few bold paragraphs, the other party asserted categorically: In today's era, the new outlet that can swallow up all hot money and ambitions is "Monster World".
In the Earth Alliance, many races are planning for the future of the monster world.
Recently, he has also seen many news reports about certain players exchanging their power for cash and buying houses in the city with full payment.
House prices are already cheap, so this doesn't seem surprising.
There are many similar cases in early games.
But the scary thing is that many players spent their sacrifice power to go to Eclipse City to undergo life-extending surgery.
Life-extending surgery is extremely expensive and has nothing to do with ordinary people.
But there are ordinary people in real life who have changed their fate through the game Monster World.
He had both expectations and concerns about the issuance of qualifications for the Monster World.
He actively participated in the previous distribution of qualifications, but never won the lottery. Perhaps this time is not a surprise.
While I was daydreaming, the vehicle slowly stopped at the station and an electronic voice mechanically announced the station name.
"We have arrived at the purification center. Please get off the bus and check your belongings."
Ning Shu walked out of the unmanned vehicle carrying the lunch box, and was greeted by a pungent smell of disinfectant.
Looking up, a huge gray-white building complex stands before us. The top of the towering wall is wrapped with electrified barbed wire, and at the entrance is a metal sign that reads "Seventh District Pollutant Purification Center."
Through the barbed wire, you can see staff in protective clothing directing several trucks loaded with black containers to adjust parking spaces inside. The containers are affixed with eye-catching radiation signs and yellow warning strips representing high-risk pollutants.
It is like a silent fortress, swallowing up pollutants brought in from all parts of the city and even from other cities.
Mutated plant samples, soil with excessive radiation, contaminated animal remains... these are all scars left over from the alien invasion war.
As usual, Ning Shu came to the access control and shouted to the security personnel standing inside:
"Uncle An, I'll bring food to my mother."
Since the purification center does not allow outsiders to enter, he always sends them here and then returns.
Uncle An, who was standing inside, nodded, skillfully opened the protective glass of the small window, and motioned for him to put the lunch box in.
Ning Shu just handed it over, but found that the other party did not close the window immediately as usual today, but looked at him hesitantly as if he wanted to say something.
"Xiaoshu." Uncle An's voice suddenly lowered:
"Your mother had some problems in Area 3 just now and was rushed to the medical center. This news should not have been told to you in advance..."
Before Uncle An could finish, Ning Shu clasped his fingers tightly around the window frame:
"What happened to my mother?"
"I don't know the details, but it was said that when processing a new batch of water samples, the protective suit suddenly sounded an alarm, and your mother was subsequently sent to the medical center for examination. It is suspected that the protective suit was penetrated by the contaminated water source..."
He turned and ran without waiting for Uncle An to finish his words. A vague shout came from behind him:
"In the medical center in area B2."
Arriving at the site, Ning Shu pressed the "Call" button continuously.
A minute later, a white hovercraft with the "Tianfeng City logo" printed on it slid silently into the station, the door opened automatically, and cold air blew in.
He almost fell into the seat, and after the car door closed, he entered the location on the screen with trembling hands.
The hovercraft accelerated and the scene outside the window rapidly receded.
The grey buildings of the purification centre were soon left behind, replaced by the ruins of the demolished wall and flashing warning lights along the way.
The in-car broadcast mechanically repeated:
"The passenger's heart rate is too high. Please remain calm. The estimated journey time is 17 minutes... There is a medical kit installed in the car. Please press the button if you need to use it..."
But Ningshu couldn't calm down at all.
He clutched the strap of the backpack that originally contained the lunch box tightly, and his knuckles turned white.
His mother was his whole world, and he couldn't imagine how he would survive without her.
The hovercraft gradually slowed down and stopped in front of a pure white building.
Ning Shu rushed into the hall. Under the glaring fluorescent lights, medical staff in white coats were hurrying back and forth.
He grabbed the nearest woman in a nurse's uniform and said in a trembling voice:
"I'm looking for Ning Qing. She was sent by the purification center. Where is she?"
Faced with the inquiry, the nurse did not ask too many questions, but nodded to show her understanding. Then she raised the watch on her right arm, quickly checked the terminal information, and then looked at him and said:
"Third floor, isolation and rescue area."
Ning Shu rushed up the stairs in two steps and pushed open the glass door of the isolation area on the third floor.
Just as he was about to move forward, he was stopped by a doctor wearing a protective mask standing in the corridor:
"This is an isolation area. No one is allowed to enter. Family members must keep their distance."
"How is my mother?" Ning Shu asked, panting.
"Who is your mother?"
"Ning Qing, sent by the Purification Center."
The doctor was silent for a while, then nodded and said:
"You are Ms. Xie's family, right? The pollutants she was exposed to are highly corrosive and have already invaded her circulatory system. We are trying to stabilize her vital signs, but it is not yet known whether the pollution can be cleaned up. We will notify you immediately if there is any new situation."
"Doctor, you must save my mother."
"Don't worry, we will do our best."
After leaving the isolation area, Ning Shu sat on a plastic chair in the corridor, his fingers unconsciously scratching the edge of the seat, not noticing that tiny debris was embedded in the cracks between his nails.
The smell of disinfectant mixed with the hum of medical equipment made the entire space seem particularly depressing.
The digital clock on the wall ticked away, and every second seemed to be stretched out.
He stared at the glaring red light on the emergency room door, his head buzzing.
At this moment, he wished he could go back to yesterday and stop his mother from going to work to avoid the tragedy.
Three hours passed quickly, and Ning Shu's back was already soaked with cold sweat.
Finally, the door of the emergency room slid open and the doctor walked out, his face full of fatigue as he took off his mask.
Ning Shu stood up suddenly, his legs were numb from sitting for so long, and he almost stumbled to the ground:
"Doctor, how is my mother?"
The doctor looked at him and said in a hoarse voice:
"The situation is temporarily stable, but we have detected that the contaminants are still spreading slowly. Conventional means cannot contain them... She can only be sent to the special medical cabin in Eclipse City. This is her only chance."
The doctor handed over an electronic medical record. The data curves on the screen were shocking. All of my mother's physiological indicators were marked in dangerous red.
At the bottom is a line of bold text: It is recommended to transfer to Eclipse City for emergency treatment within 20 days.
"Have you... arranged for the transfer?" Ning Shu's voice was dry and he felt a blackness in front of his eyes.
He knew very well what it meant to transfer to Eclipse City.
My mother's unit provides free medical care, so any medical expenses will be reimbursed.
Because the accident happened at the purification center, even the expenses for traveling to Eclipse City can be reimbursed by the Human Federation.
But there is a prerequisite here, he is qualified to go to Eclipse City.
One of the reasons why the Eclipse Clan is called creatures from the upper realm is that not everyone can go to Eclipse City if they want to.
There will be a fixed number of places every year, which will basically not increase.
Even during the most polluted periods on Earth, the number of places in Eclipse City was always fixed at a certain number.
If you want to go there, you need to make an appointment in advance and wait for notification. Finally, you will be told when you will be scheduled to go to Eclipse City.
My mother only has 20 days left. How can she possibly get medical treatment from the Eclipse Tribe within these 20 days?
Not to mention the management of Tianfeng City, even if the management of the Human Federation came forward, it would be difficult to get extra places.
When asked, the doctor looked apologetic:
"We have urgently sent a medical application to the Eclipse Tribe... But as you know, the Eclipse Tribe will basically not approve additional qualification applications unless your mother has made outstanding contributions to the Earth Alliance... Hey."
At the end, the doctor couldn't help but sigh:
"There are still 20 days left. We will do our best during this period..."
Ning Shu didn't listen to what the doctor said next.
Standing there, his ears were buzzing.
20 days, only 20 days.
He could tell that the doctor's words of trying his best were just comforting.
The doctor had clearly stated earlier that my mother’s condition could not be treated with Tianfeng City’s medical equipment.
This proves that Mom must be sent to Eclipse City as soon as possible.
But the problem now is that my mother is no longer in a good condition to wait for the appointment notification, and there is no channel to skip the appointment and go directly.
No... there is a special channel.
Ning Shu suddenly thought of a post that had been popular on the Monster World Forum.
This post was published by "Alan", the president of the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce.
He stated in the post that Eclipse City has opened a channel for the Eclipse Clan to apply for additional medical treatment through the Sacrifice Power, as well as for the Eclipse Clan to purchase the latest technological products through the Sacrifice Power on a priority basis.
Qualified players can contact the Eclipse members of the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce through the Monster World channel, connect directly, and skip the appointment to go to Eclipse City.
Thinking of this, he suddenly took out the mobile phone from his pocket and looked at the countdown that was still going on on the page.
There are still 9 hours left before the registration qualification is available.
He still has 20 days.
The monster world may be my mother's only hope to survive.
Although it is very difficult to earn enough money to go to Eclipse City within 20 days.
But it's not impossible.
From a tourist's perspective, he saw many examples of players becoming rich by chance in the monster world.
But the premise of all this is that he can obtain the game qualifications in the monster world.
……
An hour later, Ning Shu rushed into the house and dropped his backpack heavily to the ground.
Without bothering to clean up, he rushed straight to the computer, and the countdown numbers on the screen were jumping glaringly.
7 hour, 29 minutes and 23 seconds.
He stared at the decreasing numbers, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the table, the rhythm getting faster and faster.
The sky outside the window gradually darkened, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the glass, making his profile red, but he was completely unaware.
As time passes, every minute and every second seems to be infinitely stretched.
He imagined his mother's pale face lying on the hospital bed, and the doctor's words that Eclipse City must be relocated within 20 days... These pieces of information spun wildly in his mind like a kaleidoscope.
He suddenly grabbed the glass of water on the table and took a sip.
The cold water slid down my throat, but it couldn't extinguish the burning anxiety in my chest.
During this period, he refreshed the page countless times.
Even if you know that this behavior is meaningless, it will not increase the probability of winning the lottery.
But I still want to do this to relieve the anxiety in my heart.
Some players on the forum have already started discussing the probability of obtaining the qualifications when the qualifications are released this time, and how many members of various races in the Earth Alliance will participate in the draw.
The messages heightened his anxiety, and every comment felt like a needle pricking his nerves.
The time came to the last hour.
Fine beads of sweat oozed from Ning Shu's forehead; his T-shirt was soaked and stuck to his skin.
This was the most difficult hour. He began to check the network connection repeatedly and turned on his mobile phone hotspot as a backup.
The blue light of the screen reflected his bloodshot eyes.
When the countdown reached the last minute, his fingers hovered above the mouse, trembling slightly.
The "Apply for Eligibility" button on the page is still grey, but may light up at any time.
I held my breath unconsciously, the only sound in my ears being the sound of my own pounding heart.
When the countdown reached zero, Ning Shu's finger smashed down at a speed that was almost an afterimage.
Suddenly a message box popped up on the page.
[Has participated in the Monster World qualification draw. The remaining time for the draw is 4 minutes and 59 seconds. ]
Seeing the prompt, Ning Shu dug his nails deep into his palms, staring at the progress bar slowly moving forward without blinking.
Beads of sweat dripped down his chin onto the keyboard.
Finally, the countdown reached zero.
The screen suddenly exploded with brilliant golden light effects.
[Congratulations on obtaining Monster World player qualifications. Please enter the game and activate your account within 24 hours (already bound). ]
Ning Shu suddenly jumped up from the chair, and his knee hit the corner of the table hard but he didn't feel any pain.
He opened his mouth to scream, but only a broken sound came out. Then he realized that his teeth were chattering uncontrollably.
He stumbled to the bathroom, scooped up some cold water and splashed it on his face.
The person in the mirror had red eyes and water dripping down his chin, like a drowning person grabbing a piece of driftwood.
“I got it… I finally got it!”
Tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes, and he knew there was hope for his mother.
Wiping away the tears on his face, he took a deep breath:
"Mom, wait for me."
