Chapter 550: Chapter 526⊠Is this really possible?
Not to mention the guy on the obsidian pillar who couldnât help but exclaim âAwesome!â
Even the players who were swarmed by the Endermen didnât feel scared; they just thought the scene was too crazy.
The unlucky ones were immediately sent to respawn, while those with better luck managed to briefly experience swimming in a pile of Endermen before they were eventually killed and sent away.
Of course, which side was unlucky and which side was lucky varied depending on the individual.
The guy on the obsidian pillar, having witnessed the dense burst of light and the explosion of equipment and supplies, decided not to struggle anymore and directly struck the End Crystal with his pickaxe.
âLetâs start over.â
The End Crystal exploded, and the guy didnât even bother to dodge. He took a full blast of the Ender Dragonâs vertical breath and died on the spot.
In Lincolnâs view, another bunch of Endermen were spawned, and the floating island became even more crowdedâŠ
However, after checking the results, he breathed a sigh of relief: no one triggered Mirageâs protection mechanism anymore, and the Spring Meadow had only Xiaomeng and those three players left.
Just when Lincoln looked over, those three players finally finished their questioning and were convinced by Xiaomeng to log off and rest.
Xiaomeng disappeared without hesitation, and the next moment, she appeared beside Lincoln: âMaster~ Xiaomeng is here to help!â
Relieved, Lincoln and Xiaomeng each took responsibility for one modification, greatly speeding up the workflow.
Finally, after five minutes, the dense mass of Endermen below disappeared completely, and they completed the two modifications.
They updated the changes online and then unsealed the Endermanâs teleportation ability.
Outside The End, more than a hundred players who had just finished respawning were quiet for a moment, unsure of what to say.
But a few seconds later, someone suddenly burst into laughter: âHahaha, awesome! It can be like this!â
This laughter seemed to hit many peopleâs funny bones, and the sound of âhahahaâ laughter suddenly started to echo everywhere.
The laughter spread quickly, and in the end, almost everyone laughed out loud. The more they laughed, the funnier they found it, unable to stop.
It didnât look like they had just suffered a massive defeat but instead seemed as if they had achieved a great victory.
It took quite a while for everyone to catch their breath, and then they began to reassess the situation:
âWhen we go back in, will we be immediately swarmed by Endermen?â
âIs this a bug? How can we beat something so outrageous?â
âNo, we should only break one End Crystal at a time.â
âWill the spawned Endermen disappear once we disengage from combat?â
âWait a few minutes and then go in and see?â
âLetâs re-craft our equipment, I donât want to go in now.â
Everyone discussed the situation clammily, and then they began to re-craft their equipment, preparing for the next battle.

Before starting the raid, the Burned Boat Club was stumped by a question: Whose Personal World should they choose as their raid base?
A playerâs? Or a coachâs?
Or should they choose a public world that can be accessed 24 hours a day, regardless of whether the owner is logged in?
None of them seemed very suitable.
So, the coach wondered if they could create a server that doesnât require the player to be logged in and can still be online 24 hours a day?
After consulting Cloud Dreamâs customer service, they found out that it was entirely possible â this was a built-in feature of paid servers.
Hence, the club immediately opened a server using the managerâs account, directly setting its capacity at 1,000 players.
Even though they only needed a server for 100 people now⊠the manager felt that a server for 1,000 people, priced at 100 bucks a year, was more presentableâŠ
After contacting the players, they all started to move in.
Those with experience collected resources and built bases with practiced efficiency, especially focusing on quickly constructing devices for mass production of supplies.
Those without experience, however, hastily watched tutorial videos at double speed to learn.
But it was too slow!
Both players and coaches felt it was too slow!
Even though âMy Worldâ didnât have restrictive leveling barriers and early accumulation could be quick once players were proficient, starting from scratch to gather resources during such a crucial time was just too slow!
So, the coach immediately wanted to make use of their money ability â not his own money ability, but the money ability of the clubâs owner.
In the âMy Worldâ section of the Whirlpool Game Forum, there was a [Trading Zone] sub-forum. Posts in it used to be less than 200 per day, and most were bartering, with cash transactions being rare. Chasing Wind was different as he was a big spender, having already established fixed supply channels for transactions without the need for the forum.
However, today, in just half an hour, the [Trading Zone] sprang to life!
There were even posts in foreign languages!
Prices fluctuated every few minutes, not just rising â the variations were huge, whether the purchase was expensive or cheap was purely determined by luck.
Soon, a vice coach from [Burned Boat Club] also joined the chaotic âtrade war.â
When Shuihua found Lance, they hadnât even started the pioneering work. Not only were the teammates not yet assembled, but the End Portal hadnât even been found yet. They had just lit the Nether Portal and started looking for the Nether Fortress.
Shuihua didnât plan to go to the Nether to help â she wasnât an expert at all, and she might even mess things up.
So, she simply wandered around the place.
The coach and teammates were familiar with Shuihua, and although they didnât quite understand her running over and wandering around without helping, they didnât interfere and just watched Shuihua wander aimlessly.
As Shuihua wandered, she discovered a village. She went in and took a few turns, habitually looking for a trader to see what they were selling.
She opened the trading panel with a shopping mindset â after all, this wasnât her world, and it wasnât appropriate to take anything away.
However, as soon as she opened the trading panel, she was dumbfounded because she saw an â Eye of Ender?!
It was worth 11 emeralds.
Shuihua knew that what [Burned Boat Club] needed most right now was time, so she quickly messaged Lance in private: âLance, do you have any emeralds?â
Lance paused for a moment before replying, âI asked, and we only have 4. We didnât play much before, and we were mostly playing in the public world, so we donât have much accumulated. Why?â
âI found an Eye of Ender! But itâs 11 emeralds, you guys are too poor!â Shuihua said with disdain, but quickly added, âWait, Iâll go home and get some emeralds.â
Shuihua then quickly made a chest on the ground and returned to her world. She picked up an emerald and teleported back, put it in the chest, and then went back for the second, the third⊠until she had collected 11. She took all of them out of the chest and traded with the villager for the Eye of Ender.
During this process, Lance had already asked the coach and several substitute team members to quickly follow the systemâs location tips to find Shuihua.
As soon as they arrived, they saw Shuihua standing in an open wheat field, casually throwing out the Eye of Ender.
Everyone immediately stared intently at the Eye of Ender â they could only find the location of the End Portal according to the flight direction of the Eye of Ender.
But to their disbelief, the Eye of Ender flew straight up into the sky, and without going very high, it fell back down vertically, shattering on the ground.
âWhat does that mean?â a substitute team member asked, puzzled, âDid it fail?â
The coach looked at the shattered Eye of Ender and then back at Shuihua, his face full of disbelief.
And Lance had already figured it out: âThe End Portal is right under your feet?!â
Shuihua stared at the ground with her round eyes. Hearing Lanceâs question, she immediately replied, âOf course! I said I was going to help you find the portal! Look, I kept my word! Shouldnât you help me with my homework for a few days as a thank you?â
Lance was lost for words, and could only stubbornly say, âLetâs actually see it first!â
Not wasting any more time, everyone immediately started swinging their pickaxes and digging down. Sure enough, they didnât have to dig deep to see the unique brick structure of the fortress.
Afterward, they wandered around the underground fortress for several turns before finally finding the portal room.
The experienced Shuihua took the lead and entered the room. She swiftly destroyed the monster spawner, stepped on the platform, and looked at the End Portal.
But after only one glance, she froze in place.
âWhatâs wrong?â Lance and the coach stepped up on the platform one after the other, also looking at the portal.
The next moment, both of them widened their eyes and froze in place as well.
Not only them, but the hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room also froze in front of the screen through Lanceâs perspective.
What appeared in front of everyone was clearly an already active portal!!!
All 12 pedestals of the End Portal were filled with an Eye of Ender!!
The square area surrounded by the pedestals was completely dark, indicating that the portal was already in operation.
â???â
â???â
â???â
âŠ
Countless question marks covered all the screens in the live broadcast room for a while before someone unbelievably sent a comment: âItâs true that thereâs a chance the pedestals of the End Portal are already filled with Eyes of Ender, and the activation situation of portals found by many anchors are not the same, butâŠâ
In the game, the club coach continued the viewerâs point, âIs it really possible to randomly find a portal with all 12 pedestals fully activated?â
Shuihua was also surprised, but once she came to her senses, she suddenly patted Lance on the arm and said, âYou see, even the heavens are urging you to help me with my homework. Isnât it hard to justify not helpingâŠâ
â?â The coach didnât understand what Shuihua was talking about.
Lance had already accepted his fate and nodded, âI got it⊠can I just write it for youâŠâ
He was willing to believe that Shuihua played a significant role in this.
Meanwhile, the viewers in the live broadcast room also belatedly realized:
âI get it! Isnât it just a probability issue?! In front of the Goddess of Luck, there are only two probabilities: either 0% or 100%! This time, it just happened to be 100%!â
âTruly Divine! Behaving Like Humans!â
âNo one stop me! Today, Iâll bet everything I have on the Goddess to win the Card King championship!â
