Even though everyone was prepared, when they were really pulled into the game, the shock was indescribable.
None of them had caught on yet. Faced with so many options before them, they were stunned.
Thinking back to the previous login interface, the choices in the game might even affect reality. For a moment, no one dared to act rashly. They studied the options carefully.
At the same time…
The global live streaming began.
The hosts consisted of a man and a woman. They were both top figures in the industry.
The big shots of various industries and influential celebrities were also gathered in the live stream. As special guests, they were watching this unprecedented live stream.
"Oh, God! I never thought that such a magical thing would happen in real life. It's like someone told me that my novel has come true."
The person who spoke was a blond woman. Even middle-aged, it could not quite overshadow the allure in her eyes. On the contrary, it gave her an indescribable mature charm. This was J.K. Rowling.
The Harry Potter series she authored was almost a global phenomenon, regardless of country or region, and highly popular with adolescents in general.
"Perhaps that magical world is real, and there exists a Platform Nine and Three Quarters somewhere."
Hearing this, the host also expressed how he very much felt the same. "When I was little, there was an owl on the balcony window. Right when I was about to greet it, my mother drove it away!" The male host took on an indignant expression. "I paid a terrible price for it, and missed the chance to enroll at Hogwarts. I'm a Muggle up to this day."
Everyone instantly burst into laughter. Without realizing it, they had become closer. The originally somewhat reserved crowd immediately broke into chatter.
The disastrous atmosphere also lightened up a little.
"Exactly. I used to think my broom could fly, but eventually, I realized that any broom that could fly must belong to someone else."
"Long live Gryffindor!"
"Please, we Slytherin are the best!"
Seeing that they were about to digress from the topic, the host quickly changed the topic and flashed a mysterious smile. "I believe everyone here had a magical dream when they were young. Perhaps there is no magic in the real world, but there are magicians!"
"Now let us give a round of applause to the famous British magician—David Copperfield!"
With enthusiastic applause, Copperfield also came to the live stream.
"I believe that Mr. Copperfield's magic has left an unforgettable impression on everyone. I would like to ask Mr. Copperfield if you have any thoughts on this reality survival game."
David thought for a moment and answered without hesitation, "Maybe I'll get a lot of inspiration from it. Maybe my next magic trick will have an element of survival."
"Then let's look forward to it!" At this moment, a man in a black suit suddenly said, "Then, the next time Mr. Copperfield performs magic, I think I can help."
He was the famous comedian Jerry Seinfeld. There was almost a kind of magic to him, as if one could not help but laugh out loud whenever one saw his face.
Since it was a survival game, the live stream naturally invited the famous British Wilderness Explorer and the host of the Discovery Channel, Bear Grylls.
After the host finished his introduction, he asked, "Based on your many years of experience in wilderness survival, Mr. Grylls, which of their opening options do you think are most advantageous to them?"
Bear had bronzed skin and a body packed with powerful muscles. His eyes darted over the options like a hawk's. "My advice is to choose life necessities like water, food, compass."
As the live stream progressed, countless viewers flocked over.
The bullet chats of live comments quickly filled up the entire screen. After all, the entire world was paying attention to this survival game. The number of online users instantly reached a terrifying number, and it was still rising with no sign of stopping.
"Bear's Man vs. Wild is pretty interesting, but it requires too many cameramen. Being a cameraman for Bear is a high-risk profession."
"When will the Harry Potter sequel be released? We've been waiting for it for a long time."
"Help! I want to laugh whenever I see Jerry Seinfeld."
"Fans, can you not disturb us from watching the live stream? Are you here to chase after celebrities or to watch the survival game?"
"Everyone, stop arguing. Some people have already started to choose."
The live stream was bustling like it was Lunar New Year. At the same time, the players of the survival game finally started making their own choices.
As they made their choice, the original mark would darken, and the others would no longer be able to choose. This meant that there was only one choice. The contestants immediately quickened their pace, worried that the one they had their eye on would be chosen by others.
"Of course they should choose water. Water is the scarcest in the desert."
"I think they should settle the problem of food first. After all, food in the desert is limited."
"It's better to choose a mode of transportation before looking for water and food. Otherwise, traveling on foot would completely tire someone out.
"Some of the tools in the choices involve mysterious powers. I think it's better to choose a life-saving one."
"It seems like every option is very useful. It's so difficult to choose. The least useful option is probably the fairies. Other than beauty, there's nothing good about them."
Discussions abounded among the people in the live stream. Each person had their own reasoning.
At this moment, Shen Fei was also focused on the interface in front of him.
[Ding!]
He did not know if it was his imagination, but he seemed to have heard a mechanical prompt sound.
[System is loading—]
[System loading successful]
[Bound host: Shen Fei]
[System successfully activated]
[Hint: fairies, scepter and pyramid are all suitable for the first choice.]
Shen Fei's pupils contracted. He couldn't believe it. Did he just activate a cheat mode?
Initially, he thought that there wasn't much to the world he's transmigrated to. He never expected to be able to activate the system at such a critical moment. He thought that the heavens must be watching over him.
Thinking of the system notification just now, Shen Fei became even more confident about the desert survival game.
Since the fairies were ranked first, there must be a reason for the system to do so. Without any hesitation, Shen Fei chose the "twin fairies" in the system.
On the page, all the other options had already been chosen by others. Only the fairies alone stayed lit, like a lamp in the dark night. It stood out a lot. Once Shen Fei's thought came up, the option representing the twin fairies also dimmed. Everyone in the live stream quickly noticed it.
"No way, no way. Someone really chose the fairies. You can't eat or drink them. What's the use of choosing those?"
"Which lecher is this? Is he even interested in living, thinking about such things at a time like this? Death in beauty's company is a death well worthy."
"He'll probably be the first person to be eliminated."
At that moment, everyone was somewhat speechless when they saw Shen Fei's choice.
