Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Despite Azalea’s apology, not many have given her a response. They simply nodded their heads and kept quiet.

The same goes for Carmen, who had already lost interest in them.

Only Xu Feng chuckled in amusement and said, ”Fret not. I understand that it’s not easy to control 150 people in total. Midnight Crane is simply using force to control the situation. But let it be clear that such forceful action can only be done once.”

He wasn’t kidding and was sincere in his advice. Using force was a move that could only be used once in such a situation. Any more and it would be detrimental.

It was the same kind of situation for an emperor in a dynasty who would commit tyranny once to stabilize the court and the dynasty. The outcome was immense fear being spread but in return, the emperor would have obedient people working for them.

However, if such tyranny was committed more than once, the obedience would soon turn to disobedience and harboring rebellious thoughts.

History has proven itself that the emperors who committed tyranny more than once were always overthrown by rebellion. As for those who committed it once, they were often allowed to continue to rule until their death.

Alas, his sincerity didn’t seem to touch Azalea whatsoever.

”Rest assured that it won’t occur again.” She responded and said some more words before returning to her post.

Once she was gone, Carmen whispered to Xu Feng, ”I doubt she paid your words in mind.”

”Then the ones who are going to suffer aren’t us.” Xu Feng narrowed his eyes. There was a trace of killing intent contained within it as he could already imagine their so-called stabilization was futile.

Time quickly went by, and 6 groups were formed. Each group was led by the respective guilds in charge.

”Alright, we will start the trial, so make sure to stay in your group. Your group is led by the representative, so if there’s any disruption, you can be killed.” Midnight Crane’s voice resounded loudly to the crowd.

After hearing no response, Midnight Crane and the other representatives nodded their heads and accepted the system prompt that had long appeared.

While everyone began to accept it, Xu Feng secretly cast Ethereal Tether on Carmen.

Startled, Carmen turned to look at him, but before she could utter a sound, a system notification appeared in front of everyone.

System Notification: Welcome to the Hall of Resonance Trial! The transmission will begin 5 seconds from now! Good luck, challengers!

In the blink of an eye, everyone in the waiting room was teleported away.

…

At a vast empty land, multiple streaks of light appeared. The players were transported here.

Before they could even comprehend the situation, each player received a system notification regarding the trial.

System Notification: Hall of Resonance Trial has commenced. No debuff or restriction was given. Once the player count reaches 50, the second trial will begin. The battle royale event has started, and may the worthy one survive!

”What the hell? A battle royale?”

”Second trial only begins when the player count reaches 50? Doesn’t that mean 100 of us will be eliminated from the get-go?”

While most players were stunned by the unexpected trial’s rule, others were more quick-witted.

In an instant, those who had already composed themselves began their slaughter of nearby players.

Naturally, those belonging to the same guild didn’t kill each other but instead collaborated and targeted others.

As if they would target their own guildmates who could easily report their action later on once the trial was over.

However, targeting other guilds would not only allow them to secure their placement for the second trial but they might also be praised for their action.

After all, it was a collaboration between guilds, but this kind of collaboration was only intended for them to secure the rewards. Now that they knew it was a battle royale, the so-called collaboration instantly turned into a joke.

Hence, it didn’t take long before the field turned chaotic, with many seeking to slaughter the others.

The weaker players had no hope of survival, granted that everyone here was an elite of their own terms.

”Run to the forest and take cover. The empty field is a death zone!” Some of them shouted loudly to warn their fellow guildmates.

As many scattered across, the representatives’ expressions were darkened.

Midnight Crane stomped his foot in anger as he killed another external force player who tried to eliminate him.

”Fuck, what kind of sick trial was this?” He cursed in anger. Had he known the trial was not about sieging some bosses, then he wouldn’t have taken the lead to incur so much wrath from the external force players.

Now it was just great!

He was taking the complete burden of those infuriated external force players. Moreover, he was teleported to a completely random zone, separated from his Midnight Guild members.

”Even messages are disabled. The Divine World really knows how to catch people by surprise.” He gnashed his teeth.

The only good thing was that there was still a system map functioning properly, allowing him to see red dots of players who didn’t have an item to hide themselves on the map.

Midnight Crane quickly wore his Stealth Cloak to stay hidden from the map while he roamed around to search for his members.

Stealth Cloak was still considered a luxury, and not many had brought it along since they all thought it was a siege.

Why would they carry a stealth item in their inventory for some siege?

While Midnight Crane made such a judgment, the other representatives also did similar actions.

They wore their Stealth Cloak and remained hidden from the system map.

As they all lost their mind from the unexpected trial, Xu Feng had long prepared to rush toward a certain location.

’Heh, what foolish representatives they are.’ He sneered inwardly. His Ethereal Tether was still locked onto Carmen, so he could sense her location and vice versa.

He wasn’t worried about Carmen not understanding his plan or that she would meet her demise.

He dared to claim that within the battle royale trial, Carmen was the strongest. Those who encounter her could only curse their trash luck.
