<h4>Chapter 426 - Being Watched By The Earthlings!</h4>


    Felix couldn''t help butugh at the sound of that as he truly believes that anyone who dared to step into the desert with him was bound to damnation!


    ''F*cking hell, give us a chance! he already has more abilities than us!''


    ''It''s not a totally lost game, I have wings of Icuris Bloodline, one of the fastest beasts in tier 3. As long as I create a vast distance between me and the rest, it wouldn''t matter much if the 3rd zone was beneficial to him.'' Valkyrie thought.


    ''Heh, I named myself Speedster for a reason.'' A blue-haired man with a tight-fitted white sports uniform scoffed after seeing Felix''s reaction.


    He understood that Felix was thinking that the game was already in the bag since everyone had watched the battle against Mr. Gama and saw how he was able to move freely on the sand.


    They didn''t know what ability that was, but it was apparent that it would be a huge movement boost to Felix at the desert zone.


    That being said, The Speedster didn''t feel threatened at all by Felix since he knew that he was going to leave everyone to eat his dust the moment the game began.


    By the time Felix reaches the desert, he would have already reached the finish line!


    "Be wary of the desert as there would be recurring sandstorms hitting from all possible directions." Das mentioned calmly, "In addition, there would be beasts underneath the sand, like sandworms, scorpions...etc. Do know that all of the beasts in the game will be at tier 3."


    "Oh, onest thing, anyone who flies ten meters above the desert would face a much worse retaliation from the beasts than those on the ground."


    The yers didn''t like the sound of that but they were already used to facing challenges like those in every game.


    "That should be it." Das nced at his bracelet and said, "Please ask your questions."


    The yers quickly raised their hands and Das picked one of them randomly.


    "Can beasts enter the teleportation mirrors?"


    "Yes."


    The yers drew a deep breath in dread at the sound of that. Most of them were nning on relying on those teleportation mirrors to escape to the roof in case they were chased by beasts.


    But it seemed like that was merely wishful thinking.


    "Next."


    "May I know when those disasters are going to ur and how long they were going tost?"


    "I don''t know, next."


    "Is the Tsunami going to smash us against the city gate if we get caught in it?"


    "No." Das rified, "This is an obstacle marathon, not a death trap. All of those disasters are programmed to hinder your progress first and foremost not get you killed. Hence, the Tsunami will simply take you back to the shore and disappear."


    The yers sighed in relief at the sound of that. Though no one wanted to get caught in a tsunami since getting taken to the shore simply meant that it was game over.


    Upon seeing that only two yers still had their hands up, Das asked them, "Is your question about the titles?"


    The two yers nodded their heads while lowering their hands.


    Das fixed his ck bowtie and said, "For the unique title, you will need to emerge first in all three zones. The Tittle is called, -Always First-."


    ''Damn, that sounds terrible.'' Felixmentated speechlessly.


    He wasn''t the only one with the same opinion as not a single yer seemed moved by the naming.


    Those who were familiar with Das knew that his unique titles had horrible names that wouldn''t make anyone aim for them.


    Das didn''t care about their reaction as he carried on, "As for the MVP Title, you need to win the marathon after giving everyone half an hour headstart."


    ''Yeah, that ain''t happening.'' Felix who was thinking he would go for the MVP title removed that thought immediately after hearing the requirement.


    30 minutes? Felix knew that 10 minutes was already too much. Based on the scouting he had in the past five days, he understood that there were 4 yers capable of beating him in speed.


    He had no intentions of giving them 30 minutes headstart.


    "That should be all." Das snapped his finger and said onest time, "Let''s meet on the track and good luck to all participants."


    When Felix looked at him, he noticed that he had received a casual look before Das''s body disintegrated.


    ''I should be expecting an interview attempt.'' Felix mused, ''I should take advantage of it and bullshit a bit.''


    "Look at him smiling without care. I just want to p the shit out of him." A wide-shouldered man with a thick orange beard said with a suppressed tone near two yers.


    "I don''t know about you guys but I am nning on assaulting him with an elemental salvo the moment he enters the city gate." A man with a ponytail hairstyle and a loose grey robe said with a cunning smile.


    "You too?" Another yer near him said quite loudly, "I am also going for it. A selfish f*cker like him deserve to be cut into multiple pieces!"


    "I thought I was the only one with the idea."


    "I will be doing so as well."


    One yer after the other kept moring about assaulting Felix at the city gate out loud, making it impossible for Felix to not hear about it.


    In the end, Felix was speechless to find out that all the 64 yers in the game had joined the hubbub in ambushing him.


    "Sigh, you guys should have spoken a bit softer." Valkyrie''s Cry shook her head in disapproval and said while pointing her thin finger at Felix, "Now that you have scared him, I doubt he would dare to step outside of his station at the beginning."


    "True, we didn''t consider that."


    "Whatever, I will still camp his station for 5 minutes."


    "I will do the same."


    Just like before, the yers had ended up with a unanimous decision to wait 5 minutes before Felix''s station.


    All of them seemed serious to respect that decision but Felix was able to notice subtle hints of ridicule and dread when they took glimpses of him.


    His eyes might not allow him to see anything but the truth yet but he could still spot those subtle hints with his enhanced vision.


    Upon connecting some dots, Felix realized what those clowns were attempting to do by ying this charade in front of him!


    ''They are trying to scare me into staying in my station so I wouldn''t be gathered with them during the start.'' Felix smirked, ''They are scared of killing me and also of getting killed by me since they must understand that it is impossible for them to win against me solo.''


    This made Felix conclude that no one would be camping him at all!


    Honestly, it didn''t even matter to him that much if they truly camped him or not since he had created a countermeasure for the situation anyways during the past 5 days.


    Hence, he simply kept enjoying the clown show they were putting in front of him by giving them head nods of approval.


    The yers were weirded out by his behavior but they ignored it and started talking about creating alliances between them without bothering to approach Felix.


    Before long the one hour of ''friends making'' had ended and the yers started to get teleported outside of the hall one by one.


    ''Hopefully, my fans didn''t give up on me.'' Felix wished while closing his eyes shut.


    ***


    In the Earthling Team Headquarter, in the open space of the Drop...Arge holographic screen was ced in front of hundreds of chairs that were packed to the limit with the team members and the Drop''s staff.


    Some were even sitting on the hover tforms due to theck of space.


    Some were talking out loud and some were just staring at the rowdy stadium, not bothered by their colleagues'' chatter since the stream''s noise was covering over anything.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    "Speedster! You got this baby!"


    "Landlord, you uglyf*ck! Tell us the method!!"


    "Landlord, I love you!!!"


    "Valkryie, win this for me!!"


    Cheers and chants were resounding in the Drop, making Olivia and the rest to feel like they were sitting in the stadium.


    Well, feeling was just a feeling, and honestly watching the stream would never be the same as watching the game live.


    s, it was impossible for Olivia and the rest to secure their tickets since they got sold out the second Felix had appeared in the game''s participation list.


    Billions of people hadpeted for those tickets but only 40 million managed to secure a seat in the stadium.


    There were some who took advantage of the opportunity to sell their ticket at ten times the price, making a load of profit by just being lucky.


    Too bad, not a single soul on Earth managed to get lucky with a ticket.


    If Felix didn''t forget that he was exposed, he would have given a couple of tickets to his Grandfather and Olivia since yers had a little bit of privilege.


    Too bad, it was already toote and right now Olivia, the earthling team, his grandfather, and even the Council could only watch the live stream.


    Whoosh Whoosh...!


    "They are teleporting!" Olivia said in excitement while ncing here and there, wanting to locate Felix amidst the yers.


    Soon, she spotted him standing all alone in the middle of the yers like he had a coronavirus and was getting isted.


    Yet, no one cared about this as the sight of him wearing ck shorts and a white T-shirt dumbfounded them.


    If Felix wore sunsses and a hat, he would undoubtedly be considered on a vacation instead of a deadly game!


    His casual attitude as he gave head nods to the viewers didn''t make it any better!
