As the rumbling grew closer, the tremors in the ground gradually intensified.

At this moment, a formidable army, imposing to the point of hopelessness, finally revealed its menacing face.

And as the target of this army, the poor young man's expression was quite remarkable.

With such a scale, there was no hope of victory anymore.

All the initial glimmers of hope had already faded completely when he sensed the opponent's army charging towards him.

Now, all that was left was endless shock.

In less than an hour since the game started, how many Relics did they consume to gather such a terrifying army and exchange them for Experience Value?

Typically, a player is doing quite well if they can support their main force with one or two top-tier units.

These top-tier units, in truth, are more like commanders in this game.

But now, there wasn't a single Low Level unit to be seen in the opponent's army - only top-tier units!

And its scale was even larger than his own mixed army of low, medium, and advanced levels.

Who could possibly stand against such an army?

"Who on earth is this guy?"

The young man felt a twinge of discontent, thinking his defeat seemed a bit unjust.

Yet, as the opponent's army drew nearer, he saw a very famous face.

"Lin... Lin Ye?"

He was stunned.

He just remembered that there was such an individual in the same game as him!

Immediately, all his bitterness turned into resignation...

If he lost to Lin Ye, it wasn't something he couldn't accept. He would just chalk it up to his bad luck.

"Fight! Even if I lose, I'll lose spectacularly! Charge!"

With this thought, he let go of everything. Instead of waiting for death, he chose to die gloriously!

Of course...

This is just a game; players don't necessarily have to go for the kill.

...

In the distance, Lin Ye led his troops in a charge.

Yet, his opponent also charged towards him at this moment, which made Lin Ye somewhat appreciate it.

To be honest, with the comparison of combat strength between the two sides, the opponent was undoubtedly doomed.

But unexpectedly, in such a situation, the opponent still ignited a fighting spirit, which was indeed remarkable!

"Charge!"

Lin Ye also shouted, ordering his army to advance at full speed!

Soon, the armies clashed, but the opponent's light cavalry was practically no different from paper before Lin Ye's Heavy Armor Earth Dragon Knight Order.

They were instantly flattened.

Following them, the Demon Pattern Heavy Armor Infantry joined the fray, mopping up the remnants dazed by the Earth Dragon Knights.

Arrows shot by the Elf Divine Archer rained down, directly covering the rear forces of the opponent's army.

Under this intense firepower, the weak ranged units suffered heavy casualties and quickly lost combat strength.

The battle was doomed to be one-sided from the start.

Unexpectedly, it was so exaggerated!

In front of Lin Ye's army, the opponent's seemingly formidable army was as weak as a baby, utterly powerless.

They were instantly torn apart, their formation collapsing completely.

With such a disparity in combat strength, there was no contest at all.

The young man, watching as his last soldier was defeated, was left speechless, merely staring helplessly at Lin Ye.

"Saint Lin, I concede."

The young man shook his head and said.

"Thank you for the game!" Lin Ye said with a smile: "You can surrender now."

"Alright! I surrender right now!"

The young man also laughed at this, saying, "My name is Zhong Ziyu, I hope we can meet again!"

Lin Ye nodded, having a good impression of this young man.

He handled crises with strategies and didn't back down even in a nearly hopeless battle. These two points alone set him above at least 80% of Professionals.

At this time, a prompt appeared in front of Lin Ye:

[Player 'Zhong Ziyu' surrenders to you. Do you accept?]

Lin Ye immediately chose to accept.

Then, the young man named Zhong Ziyu disappeared from Lin Ye's sight.

And the troops he commanded all turned into Experience Value at that moment, credited to Lin Ye.

Lin Ye knew that the game allowed players to refuse their opponent's surrender.

The consequences naturally didn't need much thought...

But this is the rule of the game; once you choose to enter and take on the challenge, you must bear the consequences of failure.

Just like entering the Secret Realm, where you might die within; the principle is the same.

Except that the game Gongsun created involves human conflict.

However, apart from homicidal maniacs, no one would wantonly kill others in this game. If it's unknown, it's one thing, but if known, it basically means social ostracism.

Who would want to associate with a killer?

It's likely that finding someone to explore a Secret Realm with would be difficult at that point.

In such a context, the majority of players are actually safe.

As for why Zhong Ziyu surrendered at the last moment, he merely wanted to say something to Lin Ye.

After all, having lost to Lin Ye, he didn't have much psychological burden.

He even thought that when he got back, if his family learned that he had gained recognition in front of Lin Ye, he might not receive any punishment.

After all, using one Relic to gain an opportunity to associate with Lin Ye was not only a good deal but quite worthy!

For a Noble Family, even sacrificing several times, up to ten times the price, to forge a bond with Lin Ye is undoubtedly worthwhile.

It's likely that Zhong Ziyu is feeling quite delighted inside.

...

"Why did you refuse my surrender!"

In front of Gao Lanlan, a strong man showed a terrified expression.

He never expected that the seemingly beautiful girl before him could be so ruthless!

She intended to eradicate him from the game!

"No, I can't die here!"

The strong man showed a ferocious look as he pounced towards Gao Lanlan!

Aura of a Fourth-Turn Professional burst forth from him!

This was a Level 90 or above powerhouse!

But unfortunately, he heard a mischievous voice.

"Hehe, you broke the rules, so now your soul is mine..."

And throughout, Gao Lanlan's expression remained unchanged.
