Fantasy Westward Journey: Return to 2005

Chapter 1482: 'Eliminating the Alliance' ended, and Bianliang City exploded!
One minute later.

"time up!"

As soon as 60 seconds passed, Fang Yun, who had been using a stopwatch throughout the entire process, immediately called a stop.

Then, as expected, his words were still useless, and the entire public screen was still being refreshed with them.

While the screen was being refreshed, many players who had already stopped were complaining.

"It's over again? This minute went by too fast!"

"Not fast? I usually finish in a minute, put on your pants."

"There's something wrong with you upstairs!"

"I didn't win the last round, so it should be my turn this time, right?"

"That's enough. I didn't even get in last time. Even if it's my turn, it should be my turn now!"

"Don't keep thinking about it. There are only 18 spots. If you haven't won a bottle before, you can stop now."

One minute is neither long nor short for most of the players participating in this round of lottery.

Such a short time is indeed a bit rushed, just like Zhu Bajie eating the ginseng fruit.

The time is up before most people can even taste the flavor.

But Fang Yun didn't care about these things, and immediately announced the list of winners for this round.

"It's still based on the order of the screenshots. The first winner is 'Mandala', the second winner is 'Lu Meng Wu Guang', and the third winner is 'Xiao Ye Zi'... eh?"

The list had just reached the third name when I saw the ID 'Xiao Ye Zi' appear on the list again.

Fang Yun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

While he was stunned, the public screen that had already lifted the speech restrictions had already exploded!
"Xiao Ye Zi... why does this ID sound familiar?"

"I got it wrong once in the last round, but I got it wrong again this time?!"

"Outrageous! Too outrageous! Winning twice in a row in a channel with 50,000 people, this is fucking fake, right?"

"I declare that a true 'lucky star' has been born tonight!"

"I made 10 yuan in 7776 minutes. Even robbing money is not that fast..."

18 winners are randomly selected from contestants. Although it is cruel, everyone can accept it because it is all based on luck anyway.

But he won two prizes in a row and took away nearly 8000 yuan in prize money in less than ten minutes.

This outrageous probability really shocked everyone, including Fang Yun and others who organized the event.

After being shocked, Fang Yun and the others just felt that Xiao Ye's luck was extremely good.

But the other 49999 contestants in YY were angry and kept blasting on the public screen!

With so many people competing for 36 winning places, the chances are already quite small.

As a result, this little Ye Zi took up two of the 36 places by himself.

No one doubted that Fang Yun had rigged his two winnings, but that was precisely why.

This god-level luck, which can be called the "King of Dog-Tips", helped him win two prizes in a row, but also attracted countless curses.

"Ahem... Congratulations, Xiao Ye. It seems that the real lucky star of midnight tonight has been determined."

Seeing that the "show effect" was quite explosive, the entire YY hall seemed particularly agitated because of Xiao Ye's two winnings.

Fang Yun could only cough lightly to attract everyone's attention and then continued: "Then let's continue to announce the next list of winners. The ID of the fourth winner is 'Wind and Clouds', and the ID of the fifth winner is 'Harry Potter Jr.'..."

Fang Yun was still meticulously announcing the other winning IDs of this round.

But most people's attention is no longer here.

It was not until all 18 IDs were announced that it was confirmed that after two rounds, only Xiaoye was the "double champion".

The entire 2008 public screen exploded again!

"Fuck! I'm not here again!"

"I waited from the beginning to the end, only to find out that I was just a runner-up..."

"What are you talking about? How many people here are just running for the sake of companionship? It's not just you."

"In the two rounds, 99965 contestants could only run as runners-up, but Xiao Ye was able to win the prize twice. This is not fair!"

"Damn it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. Why did Xiao Ye do that?"

"If you feel it's unfair, you don't have to come next time. No one is begging you."

"Since this is a game of luck, then we must accept the existence of lucky people. If you can't afford it, you don't have to play..."

As the list of winners of the second round of Zero O'Clock Lucky Stars was announced, some players who failed to win began to grow angry and rant on the public screen.

However, before they could say a few words, they were immediately met with countless sarcasm.

As the players who refuted them said, this is just a game of luck.

In any game of luck, whether it is private or government-run, the emergence of the son of luck will never be prevented.

Looking at the noisy YY public screen, Fang Yun had already expected all this.

The New Year's Eve party held tonight was very successful, and one of the main reasons is this.

The rewards for all three events are too generous, especially for players in this era.

You can easily get hundreds or even thousands of cash rewards by participating in any event.

To most people, this is no longer a simple entertainment activity, but a life-and-death competition!

That’s why, after the event is over, there are so many complaints from players who didn’t win the prize.

After all, this means that you will miss out on a large sum of money, and the mere thought of it is heartbreaking.

At the same time, with the end of the three rounds of activities.

Several players also successfully became popular.

Whether it is the two champion contestants in the Spring Festival knowledge quiz session, or Duoduo, the 'Tiger King' contestant in the Tiger Year I Am King event, these names are deeply remembered by the players tonight.

Of course, the most impressive one is naturally the lucky king 'Xiao Ye' among the zero-point lucky stars.

Although the champion rewards for the first two events are also very generous, at least they were won based on their own strength.

But this little Ye Zi is different. He did not show any outstanding abilities. If he had to say something, it would be that he was extremely lucky.

As we all know, luck is a very illusory thing.

Especially when compared with strength, the luckier you are, the more annoying it is in fact.

But no matter what the result is, after the Lucky Star event at midnight ends, tonight’s New Year’s Eve party also comes to an end.

"Happy times are always short, and it's time to say goodbye again."

Looking at the YY lobby where more than 40,000 players were still standing, Fang Yun cleared his throat and said, "I declare that tonight's New Year's Eve party has come to a successful conclusion! The specific rewards will be distributed in the next few days, so please check your receipts..."

As he announced the official end of tonight's New Year's Eve party, the atmosphere in the public screen hall, which had been noisy, immediately changed.

"Ah, is this the end?"

"It's so fast, it feels like it's just beginning..."

"It was actually quite long. It started at 9 o'clock and ended at 12:10, a full three hours."

"It's mainly because these activities organized by Cheng Ge are so fun, especially the rewards are so awesome that I never get tired of playing!"

"That's right. Why don't we do it again tomorrow night... No, let's do it tonight. I promise to be there on time!"

"Do you think Brother Cheng's family runs a banknote printing factory? We conservatively estimate that they have printed nearly 40 this evening, and they are going to do it again. You really dare to say that."

"Wow, is this true? 40 has already been spent?"

"About the same. I calculated that after three rounds of activities, a total of more than 39 yuan in bonuses were distributed. It's shocking!"

“Fuck, fuck, fuck! A full 40, and I didn’t get a single cent?!”

For many players, the feeling of tonight’s New Year’s Eve party can be summed up in two words: ‘dreamlike’!
Cash rewards so generous that they will drive everyone crazy, and three national activities that are novel and interesting.

No matter from which dimension you look at it, this New Year's Eve Gala is undoubtedly the leader in the event world, and it's a huge lead!
Because of this, anyone who participated in tonight's event, regardless of whether they won the prize or not.

Many people have personally experienced the true meaning of gaming activities, which is that it is really fun and it really pays money!

But unfortunately, no matter how fun the activity is, it will come to an end.

"Oh, right--"

Just when everyone was immersed in the atmosphere of reluctance to leave, Fang Yun suddenly spoke again.

"We will continue to hold the Spring Festival Gala at one o'clock this afternoon, but the event will be moved back to Bianliang City."

"The specific content of the event is kept secret for now. Bianliang players, remember to set your alarm and don't miss it."

"That's it then, goodbye everyone, have a sweet dream~"

After saying this, Fang Yun immediately quit YY without waiting for the public screen to explode, then stood up and stretched.

Although tonight's New Year's Eve party was quite successful, it was also quite tiring.

The main reason is that there are so many people participating in these three activities, so except for the last Lucky Star activity which is relatively easy.

In the first two activities, all the players in their club took part in the competition to record the data, but even so they almost couldn't hold on.

That's why he moved tomorrow's event to 1 p.m.

There's no way, they are also human beings and they also need to rest and relax.

While Fang Yun and others were sitting on the sofa in the club, resting and discussing tomorrow's activities.

After he announced that tomorrow's Spring Festival Gala would be moved back to Bianliang City, both YY and the forum fell into complete chaos!

"Damn it, damn it, so the party is not over, but we are not allowed to play anymore?"

"To be more precise, people from other servers are not allowed to play, but people from Bianliang City can still participate normally."

"No... Why? Is his Bianliang City superior to others?"

"Hey, you're right! As Cheng Ge's hometown, Bianliang City is really superior..."

"You guys' complaints are outrageous. The event is organized by Cheng Ge, and people can hold it wherever they want. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"That's right! Besides, I remember that Brother Cheng made it very clear at the beginning, right? This year's party will be divided into two parts. One part will be held at the forum and anyone can attend, and the other part will continue to be held in Bianliang City. You guys are so greedy for the prize money that you forgot all this?"

"Instead of wasting time on this nonsense, you might as well go to Bianliang City and reserve a spot. I'm afraid the Bianliang City server has been overwhelmed by now!"

"As a native of Bianliang City, I dare not speak loudly, I can only make a fortune quietly..."

"I really want to know what kind of activities Brother Cheng will hold this afternoon..."

Fang Yun announced that the Spring Festival Gala would be moved to Bianliang City on the afternoon of the first day of the new year. This incident instantly caused an uproar in the entire fantasy world!

Most players on other servers who have just tasted the sweetness of success are furious as their first reaction.

After all, the event hadn’t ended yet, but I was unable to participate due to server restrictions.

This is indeed suspected of discrimination.

But when everyone calmed down and thought about it, they realized that the Spring Festival Gala was a unique feature of the Renbianliang City server.

The previous two sessions were very successful when they held them at home, so this year I just took them out to play.

It can be said that the Spring Festival Gala in Bianliang City is the orthodox one, and this year's national New Year's Eve Gala is strictly speaking an exception.

What's more, even if it's just an exception, they have done their best.

The All-Star champion reward is a full 100 million, but nearly were given out at tonight’s New Year’s Eve party alone, which is almost half of the total.

If Qiancheng was a little more "selfish", he could keep the money for himself, or give it all to the players in Bianliang City through activities.

As for these foreign players, they can’t get a penny at all.

So, he is a native who was born in Bianliang City, has been deeply rooted in Bianliang City, and even has all his assets in Bianliang City.

Being able to show such great sincerity and lead all the Fantasy players in the server to have a great party tonight, he is absolutely worthy of the title of the number one player in Fantasy.

Thinking of this, most of the players have gradually calmed down and started thinking about how to participate in the Spring Festival Gala in the Bianliang city tomorrow.

If there were still people who doubted before whether Qiancheng would take out the entire 100 million prize money as a reward.

Well, after tonight, that doubt has completely vanished.

But because of this, many people immediately became extremely anxious when they realized that Qiancheng was serious.

Only less than 100 of the 40 million prize money has been distributed tonight, which means that another 60 prize money will continue to be distributed in Bianliang City.

The 40 yuan prize has already attracted tens or even millions of players in the entire Fantasy World.

And if the remaining 60 bonuses are all distributed in Bianliang City, then based on the player base of Bianliang City.

The probability of winning is very likely to be several times, or even dozens of times, higher than the probability of winning tonight!
So after realizing this, the quick-witted players immediately began to crowd into the Bianliang city area.

They are well aware that the participation requirements for activities organized by Qiancheng have always been extremely low.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as you have an account in Bianliang City, no matter what level you are, you can basically participate normally.

As more and more people received the news and started to flock to Bianliang City, as expected, the Bianliang City server was completely overwhelmed in just half an hour!
Because the Bianliang City server crashed so suddenly, even Wangyi’s internal staff were unable to react for a while.

Until more and more people complained that the Bianliang City server was seriously lagging and they couldn't even walk or do tasks normally.

The employees who stayed in the company during the New Year finally reacted and immediately hired engineers to optimize the Bianliang City server overnight, and the problem was barely solved in the early morning.

However, although the server lag has been alleviated a little, players in the area can barely play the game normally.

But the biggest problem still leaves everyone helpless, and that is that the queues in Bianliang City have become completely crazy!
