150: Lin Ye was helpless, this was such a waste!

Long Yuan used ten million points, and his level instantly dropped from LV4 to LV3, plummeting to 35th place on the Hero Ranking!

This event was broadcast directly on the Sky Curtain.

The Great Xia Settlement underwent a dramatic change.

Such an explosive major event was impossible for the Azure Star people not to know!

Although many people were currently watching the live stream in Lin Ye's dungeon, there were also many who were not interested in Lin Ye's dungeon.

Countless media outlets instantly reported this news, and some people began to discuss it.

“Oh my god! Long Yuan, the top expert of Great Xia, was directly demoted?! I remember that old man had been at LV4 for a long time, how could he drop in level?!”

“Isn't today a day of amnesty? How could points be deducted?”

“Could it be a point transfer? But a point transfer couldn't be this fast; even ten thousand points take half a day to transfer.”

“It's not a point deduction, nor is it a point transfer, it should be… it should be the Anti-Erasure Privilege Card that only top-tier experts can purchase!”

This kind of thing wasn't difficult to analyze; a little thought was enough to figure it out.

After guessing the truth, the media and forums exploded even more!

“Anti-Erasure Privilege Card! This is the first time I've seen this item used in my life!”

“It must be Long Yuan who used the Anti-Erasure Privilege Card, and the only person he could use it for would be Lin Ye, because only his dungeon is open today.”

“Great Xia… Great Xia really went all out this time. Long Yuan is trading his life for Lin Ye’s life!”

“Looking at it this way, it seems the Great Xia people realized they couldn't win this time, so they forcibly ensured Lin Ye wouldn't be erased!”

“This loss for Great Xia is too great. With Long Yuan demoted, Great Xia no longer has an LV4! I somehow feel that achieving such an effect means we, South Korea, have already won!”

“Awesome, awesome, awesome! It seems Lin Ye's dungeon really might be breached this time. Our South Korea is truly invincible!”

Aside from the Great Xia people, everyone in all other Settlements on Azure Star was delighted.

After all, Great Xia directly losing a top expert who was once NO.7 meant that Great Xia's luck was directly cut in half, which was great news for them!

Watching the excitement without making things worse, it was originally a showdown between Great Xia and South Korea. The more damage there was, the more beneficial it was for everyone else on Azure Star.

-------------------------------------

Great Xia Settlement.

Inside the secluded Cliff Villa.

Lin Ye had actually just exited the live stream of the Winter is Coming dungeon.

He hadn't really watched the previous dungeon live streams, but with such a grand spectacle today, out of respect, he still had to follow it the whole way through.

Of course, the more important reason was that this dungeon featured a top expert like Xier and the absolute strength of German.

Lin Ye also wanted to see the current peak of Azure Star.

He had been watching for a while, but Xier still hadn't made a move…

Nothing was currently happening in the dungeon. According to his estimation, those people from Ma Country probably wouldn't make any big moves within one dungeon day.

He planned to take advantage of this break to grab a drink or something.

Suddenly, a golden light enveloped his body, then quickly dissipated.

At the same time, the sky outside the window seemed to be darkening.

Lin Ye looked down at the city from the high vantage point of the Cliff Villa and was surprised to find many basic facilities like roads, antennas, and power grids disappearing.

The city seemed to have become much more desolate in an instant.

“What is this?”

“Sky Curtain Notification: Esteemed Challenger, Challenger Long Yuan has used an Anti-Erasure Privilege Card for you.”

“Anti-Erasure Privilege Card? What is that?”

Lin Ye was truly confused, completely unaware of what had happened.

“Sky Curtain Notification: The Anti-Erasure Privilege Card is a special privilege service that the Sky Curtain provides for top-tier Dungeon Designers on Azure Star to purchase.”

“Only Dungeon Designers in the Hero Ranking TOP10 have the authority to purchase the Anti-Erasure Privilege Card. It costs ten million personal points to purchase, and can only be purchased once per year.”

“After use, it provides the user with a 24-hour anti-erasure effect. If the user incurs a point deduction within 24 hours, the deduction will be offset, thereby ensuring the user will not be erased within 24 hours.”

“Holy cow!”

“Ten million points?!”

Lin Ye was utterly dumbfounded.

“No way, those ten million points were just used up like that? That's ten million points!”

“Isn't this just a pure waste?”

Lin Ye knew best the standard of Winter is Coming. It was absolutely impossible for those people to erase him.

How could the mighty Mao Xiong Empire fall so easily?!

So, this Anti-Erasure Privilege Card was completely useless.

Lin Ye now had one feeling: immense heartache.

His heart was bleeding.

Wouldn't it have been better to just give those ten million to him? He was still struggling to upgrade from LV3 to LV4.

Even if not given to him, it would have been good for Long Yuan to keep it himself.

How much better it would have been if he had been told about this beforehand…

Moreover, ever since the explanation of the Anti-Erasure Privilege Card was mentioned, Lin Ye realized something.

This privilege was actually the Sky Curtain's disguised way of weakening the top experts on Azure Star.

LV4 Challengers already had permanent dungeon exemption rights; as long as they didn't act recklessly, it was impossible for them to die, so they didn't really need the so-called anti-erasure.

In fact, at that level, it was very difficult for points to be deducted.

But people have obsessions; even strong individuals will have people they want to specially protect.

And the Sky Curtain was using this mentality to indirectly weaken the points of top experts!

“Sky Curtain, can I return this Anti-Erasure Privilege Card now?”

“I don't want to use this card at all?”

“Sky Curtain Notification: Once the Anti-Erasure Privilege Card is used, it cannot be canceled.”

“However, there is one situation where it can be forcibly returned: if no point deduction occurs for the Challenger within 24 hours, the Anti-Erasure Privilege Card will automatically be recognized as expired, and the points will be returned to the original account!”

“That's great!”

“That's more like it.”

Lin Ye let out a long sigh of relief.

In that case, it meant that as long as he didn't get any points deducted and ensured that no one cleared Winter is Coming, the ten million points for this card would be directly returned to Long Yuan.

After calming his mind, a smile appeared on Lin Ye's lips.

Long Yuan and he were strangers, yet he was willing to spend such a high amount of points to give him this kind of 'death-exemption' privilege. Lin Ye was naturally grateful.

However, as a Transmigrator, having designed a dungeon with the most cutting-edge military knowledge and the foundations of the Five Great Powers, if it were to be breached by a group of backward Challengers…

Then it would only mean he had made a serious mistake! It would mean he had gotten too arrogant.

If that were the case, he wouldn't need to live anymore.

“Old Man Long, I've noted your kindness.”

“However, I, Lin Ye, will absolutely not do such a losing business!”
