"Dear viewers, after a short break, the third game of the first round is about to begin. I believe everyone can't wait!"

"But wait, why did I say I can't wait? In previous years, the third game of the first round was all about rookies pecking each other, and no one was interested in it. Many people would even leave early at this stage!

"

"Why is everyone looking forward to it this time?"

The host came to the stage and gave an opening monologue that he thought was very humorous, "Is it because of the showdown between East China University and Imperial College? It must be, right?"

"East China University, because of the existence of Chang'an, suddenly became the most popular university. And Imperial College, which has always been a traditional strong team, has fielded the strongest lineup in history this time!"

"Don't forget, the captain of the Imperial Academy, Devil, is a young SS-level warrior and a well-deserved genius!"

"Two teams like this met early in the first round, and there were all kinds of conflicts before the game, as well as gimmicks that aroused our interest in watching the game. How can we not look forward to such a game!"

"Now, Chang'an and Devil are going to have an ultimate showdown of win or go home. It's hard for me to imagine anyone not being interested in this game!"

"But to be honest, it seems a bit false to have such a climax matchup with Mars hitting the earth in the first round. Everyone, including you, is saying that there is something behind the draw."

"But to be honest, as an insider, I am also very surprised by this result. Believe me, this is really an accident, and there is no human intervention."

"So before this absolute accident occurs, our tournament side still has to worry about the boring third game of the first round. In order to prevent you from saying that the tournament side is inactive, we have also thought of countless ways to change this.

A status quo."

"The good news is that we have thought of a good way, and this way is... to create a more interesting copy!"

The host's nonsense just now made everyone a little impatient, but this last sentence instantly eliminated everyone's dissatisfaction and aroused everyone's interest.

Dungeons are the core component of the Trial Grounds. Although the main purpose of completing dungeons is to improve their own strength, many people regard challenging dungeons as an interesting adventure.

The more interesting the dungeon is, the more impressive the adventure experience it brings. There are even many people who like a certain dungeon and will deliberately not complete the challenge after entering the dungeon so that they can return to that dungeon multiple times.

So when I heard that the tournament organizer had prepared an interesting copy, everyone's appetite was instantly whetted.

The host was very satisfied with everyone's reaction and said with a smile: "I've talked enough nonsense just now, so I won't talk about it anymore. Let me just say that this time's copy is called "Ready Player One"!"

"Similar to the "Matrix" just now, this is also a dungeon with human-computer interaction and virtual reality as the background. But other than that, the two dungeons are quite different."

"In this copy, there is an NPC named James Halliday. He first created a virtual reality game called 'Oasis' and completely changed human life."

"Before his death, James Halliday told the world that he set an Easter egg in the oasis. Whoever finds the egg will become the legal heir of the oasis."

"If you want to find the easter egg, you must first find three keys. The clues to these three keys are hidden in James Halliday's past."

"This is the main plot of this dungeon, but the key point is, what kind of existence is the oasis?"

"The oasis is the limit of human imagination. In the oasis, as wild as your imagination is, the world you can create will be as big as it is. Here, you will be omnipotent and unstoppable, as long as you have full strength

Imagination.”

"In the oasis, you can change your image at will. Just like you are in the trial place, you can dress yourself up how you want, and even change your gender and species, becoming a monster, or a

Ghost, if you wish."

"And you can have a normal social life in the oasis, you can meet new friends, and you can even team up with people in the oasis to build a new team."

"It can be said that the oasis is an evolved form of our trial place. By killing other players in the oasis, you can get gold coins. You can use the gold coins to buy the equipment you want, just like our trial point."

"Of course, the equipment bought with gold coins is, to a certain extent, garbage. What is truly powerful is the equipment hidden in every corner by James Halliday, the founder of Oasis."

"As long as you have the ability, you can find them and make yourself stronger."

"But one thing to note is that if a player in the dungeon is killed in the oasis, his character can be resurrected, and all his gold coins and equipment will be exploded."

"But this is a setting for the NPCs in the dungeon, and the trialists will become characters in the oasis after entering the oasis. They have no real body and no chance to be resurrected after death!"

"Same as "The Matrix" just now, you only have one life. If you die in the oasis, you are really dead!"

"Therefore, after trialists enter the oasis, they can obtain equipment and gold coins by hunting other players to make themselves stronger. But they must be careful not to die!"

"Of course, there are no special restrictions in this dungeon. People who enter the dungeon can still use abilities and personal equipment."

"Okay, I've introduced everything that needs to be introduced, and now I'll release the dungeon mission."

"James Halliday, the founder of Oasis, also has his own role in Oasis, the omniscient Arnock. The three keys created by Arnock can provide useful clues after completing the hidden challenges."

"The clues will guide you to find the key, and finally open three magic doors. Those who pass the final level will receive the final reward and Easter egg. Whoever gets the final reward and Easter egg first will win the game!"

"So this time, regardless of camp, we will compete against each other in terms of intelligence and personal strength!"
