Chapter 968

After the three of them teamed up, Gu Ding picked up the token in his hand and looked at it carefully. He looked at Melissa and Robert helplessly. "How do I use this thing?"

"It's very simple. The beast head carved in the center of the token has a bead in its mouth. Press the bead hard, and the token will automatically project the operation interface. "

As Robert spoke, he pressed the bead on the token. Then, an image was projected above the token.

Gu Ding immediately did the same and projected the operation interface.

In the center of the interface, there were several option boxes.

From top to bottom, the first option was "Leaderboard", the second option was "Map", the third option was "Nearby Contestants", and the fourth option was "Others".

Gu Ding first clicked on the leaderboard. There were already many names on the leaderboard. The person in first place only had twenty-one points. Other than the top ten or so people, the points at the bottom of the leaderboard were all in single digits.

After closing the leaderboard, Gu Ding clicked on the map. There were two options in the upper right corner of the map: 2D and 3D. The default was 2D.

On the 2D map, Gu Ding finally saw the area outside the City of Giants, which was also marked with various colors.

The gray area was where the demons and beasts with Great Perfection Heavenly God combat strength were distributed.

The white area was where the demons and beasts with 1-star Shura combat strength were distributed.

The yellow area was where the demons and beasts with 2-star Shura combat strength were distributed.

The blue area was where the demons and beasts with 3-star Shura combat strength were distributed.

There was also the red area, which had the least number of demons and beasts with Saint-level combat strength. The red area was marked with skulls. According to the annotation in the lower left corner of the map, each skull represented a Saint-level demon and beast.

Gu Ding minimized the map, and there were only thirteen skulls in the entire trial battlefield.

Twelve of the skulls were white, and one was red.

There was no explanation on the map as to why the colors were different. Moreover, the red skull was located in a purple area. It was the only purple area on the entire map.

However, it was not difficult for Gu Ding to guess that the red skull in the purple area was something more dangerous than a Saint.

"I wonder how many points I'll get if I kill this red skull …" Gu Ding muttered.

Melissa and Robert quickly saw this unique point on the map.

"It's not stated in the rules of the game. This should be similar to a hidden boss in a game. Killing him would definitely be worth a lot of points." Melissa gave the same guess as Gu Ding.

"Then, where should we go first?" Robert, on the other hand, was more concerned about practical issues.

"I've roughly looked at the map and considered our strength. We can first go to the area where demons and beasts with the strength of a Three Star Asura are distributed. He'd familiarize himself with the attack patterns of the exotic beasts and warmed up at the same time. After that, we'll go to the area where the Saint-level monsters and beasts are distributed and kill those white skulls one by one. "Gu Ding made his decision. "However, Neptune isn't here, so I can't plan the most efficient route."

"If we take this route …"

As Melissa spoke, she pointed her finger at the map projected in front of Gu Ding and drew a zigzag line.

"Due to the restrictions of the rules, we can only teleport short distances, so it's impossible to reach our destination directly. We'll first go to this One Star Asura area and do a sweep. Then, we'll use this route to pass through the Two Star Asura area and arrive at the Three Star Asura area. After we're done with the sweep, we'll head southeast and get rid of that white skull. After that, we'll head north from the red area and enter another Three Star Asura area … "

Gu Ding could not help but raise his eyebrows after listening to Melissa's route plan. "You calculated the attack route of twelve skulls in such a short time?"

"There are two people in your team who can do this. Other than Neptune and Mikko, there's also Reid from the Federal Government who can do it. He's your good friend, right? Is it strange that I can do it? "Melissa asked.

"Alright … then we'll follow your route!" Gu Ding looked at Melissa deeply and did not say anything else.

"I'll lead the way. You guys follow," Melissa said and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute …" Gu Ding suddenly stopped her.

"What's wrong?" Melissa looked back at Gu Ding in confusion.

"Melissa, do you have a way to contact Neptune? Or contact anyone else in our pirate crew. "Gu Ding was still a little worried about the rest of the crew.

"There's really no way. Long-distance detection and communication methods are all blocked by the rules. There are no exceptions to the rules. " Melissa shook her head helplessly. "Although the token has the ability to display the coordinates of nearby participants, it can only display the coordinates. There's no way to identify those coordinates."

"That's true, but …" Gu Ding was most worried about Mikko. Not only was Mikko young, but she was also blind. Moreover, almost everyone who participated in the Selection Competition this time was not a weakling.

"Captain, you don't have to worry about Lili and the others. With their strength, I'm afraid it'll be difficult for them to meet a worthy opponent in this round of Selection. As long as there's no enemy with Saint-level combat effectiveness, they won't be in danger. " What Robert said was also true. Lilliath and the others had recently increased their combat effectiveness to a terrifying level. There was almost no one below the level of a Saint who could pose a threat to them.

Of course, Gu Ding also knew that in terms of combat effectiveness, Lili and the others would not be much of a problem. However, when he thought of the Slayer that he and Melissa had been tracking along the way, Gu Ding felt a little worried.

"Don't worry too much. They'll all pass this Selection Competition safely." Melissa also comforted him.

"I know. Let's go!" Gu Ding nodded.

"Follow me. Don't get lost," Melissa said as she rose into the air and sped off into the distance.

Both Gu Ding and Robert immediately followed suit.

Flying was no longer restricted, and everyone's speed was countless times faster than before.

In just a few breaths, Gu Ding and the others left the area covered by the City of Giants and arrived in the desert area outside.

After stopping to determine their position, Melissa immediately Space Jumped away.

Gu Ding and Robert both caught the Space Fluctuation that she brought with her and disappeared from where they stood.

After a few Space Jumps, Gu Ding and the others passed through the area covered by Great Perfection Heavenly God combat effectiveness demons and exotic beasts without being discovered.

Then, the three of them appeared in the white area covered by Great Perfection Shura combat effectiveness demons and exotic beasts.
