38: Really give it to me?

Xu Lian adjusted this, allowing the user to move flexibly even while casting an awakening skill.

After unleashing his awakening, Xu Lian immediately followed up with a series of other ultimate skills: Great Collapse, Blood Sword Shadow, Furious Slash, Powerful Attraction, and Grab.

Subsequently, the Ice Dragon let out a single mournful cry before falling under his onslaught.

"Designer, that was absolutely awesome!"

"Did he really clear it just like that? I remember when I first played, it took several revival items to get through."

The two onlookers were utterly awestruck.

"Teacher Xu, I can't wait to see the new version with the National Awakening (All-Class Awakening)."

Lin Shufen also showed great interest.

"It will definitely be worth watching; everyone prepare for a surprise," Xu Lian answered affirmatively.

"Huh, Teacher Xu, did the Ice Dragon drop something good?"

At this moment, Lin Shufen noticed several lines of striking pink text among a pile of items.

"Indeed, it did."

Xu Lian discovered a rare pink-grade equipment among them.

He quickly stepped forward and cleared away the other materials, fully exposing the precious equipment to view.

[Skasa's Cold Blade] (Katana)

"Wow! Teacher Xu, this is a weapon suitable for your Ghost Swordsman!" Lin Shufen exclaimed excitedly.

"It seems our luck is really good to get such a rare item; it truly is a treasure," Xu Lian said with an unexpected smile.

This lord-grade magical Katana, excluding epic-grade items, ranked among the top for Ghost Swordsman-type classes.

Not only was its appearance cool, but its attributes were also excellent.

Its special feature was the ability to mimic Skasa's unique frost breath when used, with a chance to freeze enemies, making it exceptionally valuable in both dungeons and the arena.

However, Xu Lian did not claim it for himself but turned to a Level 57 Asura in the party.

"Come on, this is for you; take it quickly."

"Re-really for me? You're not joking, are you?"

The Asura naturally coveted this weapon, but considering that the person in front of him was the game Designer, he politely refrained from actively snatching it.

"Of course it's real; come and claim it. You'll be very powerful with it."

Although it was indeed a good weapon, for Xu Lian, these were merely simple data.

If he wished, he could issue countless weapons to his own character without issue.

Giving one to a fellow player could be considered a welfare benefit.

"Thank you so much! I love you!!"

The Asura excitedly rushed to Xu Lian's side and picked up Skasa's Cold Blade.

"Try a normal attack; it should be able to release cold air and freeze the target," Xu Lian prompted.

"Okay, I'll try!"

Although a bit unfamiliar, the Asura still controlled his character to swing a few times, and immediately, a blue cold current emanated from the blade, looking incredibly dazzling.

"Wow! That's awesome, I love you, Designer!" The Asura player continuously experimented with various skills.

The other Gunner player looked quite envious.

He had originally wanted to join the challenge using his Sword Soul character, and perhaps that precious Frost Blade would have become his.

Watching the jubilant Asura on the screen, many fans left sour comments.

"Ah, I want that blade too; it looks absolutely amazing!"

"Yesterday I got a similar weapon, but it was for a Gunner QAQ."

"To give such an excellent prize to a regular player, what a rare kind person; I'm a permanent fan!"

"Everyone, don't forget, these things are just virtual existences to the Designer, but even in small matters, it shows how much he cares about the player community ~"

"Streamer Sister, please leave the party so we can team up with the Designer, okay?"

"Please be sure to add me; I also hope to get guidance!"

The screen was filled with voices eager to cooperate.

Lin Shufen looked at the screen full of envious remarks, feeling both helpless and a little happy.

She finally decided to ask tentatively:

"Designer, many of your followers want you to lead them on an adventure."

"It's fine, I'm free today anyway, so I'll play with everyone for a bit longer."

"Since that's the case, I'll leave the party. You can take others to experience it."

When Lin Shufen relinquished team command, a flood of friend requests poured towards Xu Lian.

At this moment, the Dunxueyu map was densely packed with Warriors who had come upon hearing the news, so much so that even NPCs had trouble finding a place to stand.

"Please join our group, please!"

"Designer brothers and sisters, take me with you! I'm a girl, please!"

"I just recharged a lot of money; I hope to adventure with you, even if it's just farming low-level monsters."

"I recharged a full 10,000 RMB; please consider taking me first!"

"Master, please take me, even if it's to fight the Ice Dragon; your disciple kneels in gratitude here!"

Browsing the screen full of notifications, Xu Lian's lips curled into a satisfied smile.

"This afternoon will be spent accompanying everyone on a dungeon exploration journey. Thank you all for your support."

Immediately, a round of enthusiastic applause followed.

From afternoon until 11 PM, Xu Lian accompanied players for an entire night without charge.

District 6 now gathered many famous players who had come upon hearing the news.

Every team Xu Lian led was randomly assembled.

Wherever players wanted to farm monsters in a dungeon, Xu Lian would take them there, never showing any impatience.

Players, seeing such an approachable and unpretentious game Designer for the first time, were deeply attracted by Xu Lian's unique charisma.

After learning that the Designer of Dungeon & Fighter was leading free dungeon runs in District 6, other players also began creating new accounts in this area, eager for a chance to adventure with the Designer.

As a result, a large number of players flooded into the District 6 server, causing the district's status to jump directly from the most relaxed casual mode to the highest level of 'full' status!

Actually, server operating status was divided into five levels: Casual → Normal → Crowded → Busy → Full.

Even in the lowest 'Casual' state, approximately one million users were online simultaneously.

When it reached the peak—'Full' mode—nearly five to six million people were playing online together.

The world's internet technology was very advanced.

Even during peak traffic, users would not experience any abnormalities during gameplay, such as unexpected disconnections; such problems would never occur.

But now, due to the sudden influx of a massive number of people into the game world, some players had begun to experience screen lag or delay.
