Chapter 119: The Toughest Task!

Miller could not participate in the individual Player Kill competition due to his severe injuries and Team Moss’s unexpected victory.

The media got caught off guard.

Several media staff worked over time, aiming to run a press release on Miller and the Super Whirlwinds. They intended on quickly releasing their articles so they could go on vacation.

However, no one expected such an outcome. The media staff’s previous efforts were in vain, and they had to work overtime again to make new articles.

The media was even more distressed when Team Moss unexpectedly won the team Mystic Realm competition, making it impossible for the media to write an analysis-type article. They could only express shock at the sudden significant change.

White Deer City Express:

“Champions! The Miracle Knight Team!”

“They Weren’t the Underdogs, but the Ones to Watch!”

Sky Network:

“A Mystery Revealed! A Knight Claimed the Season’s Future Star Award!”

“Moss Brings Glory to the Knights Yet Again!”

Professional Alliance Network:

“What a Magical Day! A Single Match Reveals All the Answers!”

“Moss, the Newcomer Who Holds the Knight’s Flag High!”

The media was in shambles, and even more so on the internet.

The fans became biased when the Super Whirlwinds advanced to the finals with incredible momentum. Everyone thought the Super Whirlwinds would win the championship while Miller claimed the Future Star award.

The fans of the Super Whirlwinds and Miller felt a punch in their gut when the referee announced Team Moss as victors. Comments instantly exploded on the competition’s Livestream.

“The God-like Super Whirlwinds lost?!”

“Yeah, Team Moss even ended the competition by severely wounding Captain Miller!”

“Team Moss till the end! What a true miracle!”

“The team that placed last in the overall strength ranking won the team Player Kill competition? Who would have thought of that?!”

“The knight blind-sighted everyone!”

…

“We have an excellent show to watch! Whoever said they would eat sh*t while standing on their head, and the one who said they would wash their hair while standing on their head if Team Moss won should come out and do what they promised. I have screenshots as proof!”

“Hahaha, I have screenshots too! That will be interesting.”

…

The internet was in an uproar again when Davis announced Team Moss won the team Mystic Realm competition.

“How is that possible?! Did the organizing committee make a mistake?”

“The knight’s team is incredible, after all.”

“Although we didn’t see much of Team Moss in the team Mystic Realm competition, I still feel they didn’t perform as well as the other teams.”

“I didn’t even pay attention to them in the team Mystic Realm competition.”

“They won the championship so unexpectedly.”

“Team Moss placed last in the overall strength ranking after all. Who would pay attention to them?”

…

“Moss is already a future star because he won all his matches!”

“There’s no doubt about it! There’s no need to calculate the points anymore.”

“Even a God wouldn’t expect a knight to claim the Future Star award.”

“I’m in utter shock!”

…

Team Moss’s fans were the happiest people alive when they heard that Team Moss had won the team Player Kill competition. It was especially true for the people who voted for Moss, knight, and Team Moss on the “my favorite player,” “my favorite class,” and “my favorite team” voting system.

The voters witnessed their favorite team and participant win time and again. The voters were thrilled to receive a share of the prize money for voting.

Meanwhile, Wright was the luckiest person because he remained loyal to Moss. Wright bet on Team Moss to win both Player Kill competitions five times in a row, and it was two hundred and fifty-six odds. Wright had bet 5000 yuan on Team Moss and won 1.28 million yuan.

…

When Miller got severely injured while the Super Whirlwinds fell silent, several analysts and teams on the internet live-streamed their analysis of the competition.

The Livestreams became increasingly popular as netizens flooded the comment sections. A Livestreamer named King Knight was the most popular among them.

King Knight had attracted 200,000 viewers in less than two days since starting its Livestream. Still, tens of thousands of viewers flooded in, especially after Team Moss won the competition.

The number of viewers in King Knight’s Livestream never dropped below 300,000.

At that moment, King Knight analyzed Team Moss’s performance in the team Mystic Realm competition.

“There were two deciding factors that affected each team’s placement in the overall strength ranking according to the team Mystic Realm competition’s format. One was the Mystic Realm’s difficulty, and the other was the time to complete the mission.”

“Team Moss finished their mission the quickest in the two-star Mystic Realm, giving them the upper hand.”

…

The netizen’s comments flooded the screen during King Knight’s analysis.

“Team Moss aren’t necessarily the winners because they finished their mission the quickest.”

“Exactly! Their mission must’ve been easier than the other teams'”

“Is time an important factor in the Team Mystic Realm competition?”

“King Knight just said it was, you dimwit.”

“Was there a mistake in the final results?”

“Of course not! The organizing committee is stern. They have never made a mistake or misjudgment for decades! That’s one of the reasons why this competition is so important!”

“I think the organizing committee only postponed the team Mystic Realm result because they were surprised with Team Moss’s outstanding performance. They may have checked the results repeatedly for caution’s sake. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have announced the results so late.”

…

“Team Moss placed last in the overall strength ranking, and no one paid attention to them because the organizing committee hadn’t given Team Moss much screen time.”

“I wonder what Team Moss’s performance was like.”

“I want to know too!”

…

The netizen’s comments continuously flowed in as King Knight continued their analysis, “I noticed some of you saying time affects the team Mystic Realm competition. Time is not the most crucial factor considering the competition’s results.”

“The time some teams spent in the two-star Mystic Realm was not as fast compared to the other Mystic Realms. The Super Whirlwinds, who placed second in the team Mystic Realm competition, came out only three minutes after Team Moss came out.”

“During that time, the other teams in different Mystic Realms had already completed their missions, meaning the factors that influenced the mission’s difficulty were more significant than the time.”

“With that in mind, Team Moss’s missions were just as challenging as the Super Whirlwinds. Considering what little we saw of Team Moss’s performance, their missions were probably the hardest.”

King Knight posted a few pictures of Team Moss during the team Mystic Realm competition as he spoke. The pictures made some netizens worry while others felt embarrassed.

At that time, anyone who saw those pictures would think Team Moss were rookies. The audience also thought Team Moss couldn’t handle the most straightforward mission.

But after discovering Team Moss’s strength, the netizens finally understood how challenging Team Moss’s mission was at that time.

“I should have guessed that long ago. A knight wouldn’t be that simple if they could complete a challenging two-star Mystic Realm mission.”

“Team Moss was just an afterthought, so it was reasonable if you thought they drew a straightforward mission.”

“That’s right. Also, Team Moss could’ve exited the spatial rift even though they couldn’t finish their mission. However, many thought they finished their tasks out of respect.”

“So, Team Moss were the ones to beat from the start?”
