AFTER that announcement, the huge galleon started to move. Luo Yan looked across the wide blue sea and felt the breeze blowing. He gazed down at his brother and saw that the other already jumped and sat on the railing of the ship. Probably so he could see the view of the ocean more clearly.
Luo Yan was a bit disappointed. He was planning on teasing Luo Jin, asking him if he wanted to be carried so he could see the ocean view more properly. He didn't expect that before he could do that, the other had already found a way on his own. He sighed. And here he thought he could hug up his brother like a big doll.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Luo Jin asked after seeing his brother's weird look.
"Nothing. I just think that Ah Jin is so cute," Luo Yan said with a smile.
Luo Jin only gave him a sideway glance. He had already been getting used to Luo Yan's teasing. If he always felt embarrassed every time the other teased him, then he would be wearing a red face most of the time.
"That gray-skinned elf earlier, is he your classmate?" he just asked instead.
He knew that his brother didn't interact much with students from another class or year. If Luo Yan recognized that elf despite his skin color, then he must have interacted with his brother quite a lot. The only thing he could think of why was because they saw each other every day in the classroom.
"No. He's a friend of Huang Wen. You know him, right?"
Luo Jin frowned. He almost forgot that Luo Yan was in the same class as that annoying guy, Huang Wen. "How did you become acquainted with the friend of that guy?"
"He visited our class one time. He left quite an impression," Luo Yan said, straightforwardly lying.
If he told Luo Jin that incident about Ying Chen pushing him out of the elevator, he was sure that this brother of his would directly go to the other right now and most likely shot him with his gun. Then once school started, Luo Jin would definitely find trouble for Ying Chen.
Not that he didn't care about what happened then. But he had already taken his revenge by tripping Ying Chen. And it's not as if the other kept troubling him after that. In fact, if he didn't encounter him today, he would have already forgotten about that incident. So, really, it's not worth it for Luo Jin to make trouble just because of that.
Luo Jin frowned even more. He felt like Luo Yan was not telling him the whole thing. But knowing his second brother, if he didn't want to tell him something, then there's no use to force him.
Remembering how that elf earlier was seemed to dislike Luo Yan, something definitely happened between the two. But considering how the two of them were always together in school, aside from class hours, if he encountered a problem with that guy, he should have known about it.
Should he ask Yu Jiao about it?
Before he could decide on whether he should do that or not, a voice suddenly sounded from above them.
"Welcome to my ship, Poseidon!"
Everyone looked up and saw a burly man wearing some kind of pirate costume. But not just some pirate costume but a pirate captain's costume. He also had an eyepatch to complete the whole 'pirate' theme. He was standing on the highest point of the ship, staring down at all of them with a sinister grin on his face.
"I'm Captain Roger and I'm entrusted to deliver the lot of you to Four-Seasons Island," he started. "But not all of you can arrive there safely," he added meaningfully. "So, do your best to survive until we reach our destination!"
Then the captain disappeared. But not before smiling sinisterly at them, as if he couldn't wait to watch their suffering.
As expected, most of the players who was standing on the deck panicked after they heard what the NPC, Captain Roger, said.
"What does that NPC mean?"
"He said not all of us could arrive at our destination. Will we be forced to fight one another here?"
When the players heard that, they looked at each other guardingly. Some even put up a protective stance.
"Stop making yourself panic for no reason. If that were truly the case, then that NPC would have already told us to fight each other."
"What shall we do then?"
Luo Yan watched everything calmly. He didn't panic like everyone else. What's the use of it? Panicking would not give anyone result.
"Yan, what do you think?" Luo Jin asked beside him.
"I also don't think we're supposed to fight each other. But it's certain that there would be other things that would help reduce our numbers," Luo Yan said. "In one way, the preliminary has already started."
"Without even telling us?" Luo Jin asked incredulously.
"Maybe Captain Roger's words were the game's way of telling us that this is the beginning," Luo Yan shrugged.
Luo Jin tsked. "This pit game."
Luo Yan couldn't agree more.
Then he noticed that the wind blowing was becoming stringer and stronger. To the point that if he didn't stand properly, he would be blown off for sure. Then after that, he heard the rumbling of the sea and the sky. The calm tide started to be turbulent. The blue sky turned dark and lightning flashed. Then, heavy rain started to fall.
"A storm is coming," Luo Yan said while looking up at the sky.

Inside the VIP room of a prism shaped crystal building that was floating on top of the Four-Seasons Island, five people and one fox were staring intently at the huge virtual screen on top of them.
Everyone who bought the tickets for the preliminary game was inside this crystal building. Depending on the ticket, one could watch everything inside a huge private room with an equally huge virtual screen or they could watch it inside a small room with a small screen.
But one thing was common, they could choose which player the wanted to watch.
And right now, inside this VIP room, they were all staring at a pair of elf and gnome on the screen.
