Chapter 85 Highway Radio Station? Host?
It is a time-reversal type of item.
They arrived here three minutes ago.
Pei Hening grabbed his hand and said, "Someone used a time-reversal item, and time was reversed by three minutes."
Chu Xuange met her gaze, understood her meaning, and placed his hand on the hilt of his sword: "Alright."
The two had only taken two steps forward when a whip wrapped in ice element lashed out at them!
Chu Xuange blocked Pei Hening's path, drawing his sword precisely to deflect the whip with a gleaming blade.
He effortlessly neutralized the fierce force of the whip.
Pei Hening noticed that the name tag of the male player who was whipping them with a soft whip was "99-645", which was the same district as the wealthy family whose property she inherited.
Chu Xuange spun his longsword rapidly, his entire body hurtling towards his opponent like an arrow released from a bow. To the male player's horrified gaze, his sword slit open his throat, and the next second, warm blood gushed out.
The outcome is decided; life and death are determined.
Seeing Chu Xuange quickly collect the spoils, she reminded him, "This person is also from Division 99-645."
Chu Xuange walked to her side and handed her the dice: "This is the time reversal tool he used."
Pei Hening took it and examined it.
[Destiny] (S-Rank): The ending you see is not predetermined! After use, the dice will randomly roll a number from 1 to 6, and time will rewind by 1 to 6 minutes. 100 magic points will be deducted. Cooldown: 24 hours. (Note: Time cannot be rewound multiple times.)
(It's the posthumous work of the genius time-manipulation prop master, Athena. I remember there was also a matching hourglass-shaped prop that was also a time-reversal prop.)
(Time can be turned back, but the scars remain. She gambled with all her time, but she still lost.)
After Pei Hening finished reading the explanation, she was about to discuss it with Chu Xuange when she saw a woman walking towards them. She was also a player from the 99-999 zone.
The woman was tall, with a striking and elegant appearance. She had her black hair tied in a high ponytail, wore frameless glasses, and dressed in a gray casual suit. Ignoring the scattered bloodstains on her clothes, the outfit was quite comfortable.
She took out a slender women's cigarette, put it in her mouth, and casually lit it.
After getting a good look at Pei Hening's face, she took off her cigarette and said with a smile, "Who is it? It's you, little sister."
Pei Hening greeted her: "Sister Lemon."
[Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit] opened the cigarette pack and generously handed it over: "Want a smoke?"
Pei Hening shook her head. Seeing this, she didn't insist and naturally took back the cigarette case and put it back in her pocket.
Then she saw Chu Xuange silently wiping his sword beside Pei Hening, exuding an aura of unapproachability, and raised an eyebrow: "Is this your boyfriend?"
Pei Hening hummed in agreement, not really wanting to discuss her relationship with Chu Xuange with others.
[Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit] also got the answer from her reaction, saying, "Go to the ball barrel?"
The three walked towards the ball barrel; there were quite a few people around there.
Pei Hening glanced at them briefly and then stuffed all the balls she had just picked up into the ball bucket.
There are currently 47 golden balls in the bucket, so they're definitely in the top 500.
The rankings could even jump a little higher.
With five minutes left in the game, Pei Hening pulled Chu Xuange to stand guard next to the ball barrel, waiting for the game to end while preventing anyone from damaging the barrel.
The game ended, and the players in the stadium were kicked back onto the road. Pei Hening fell into the driver's seat, and she heard the game announcement as soon as she sat up.

Pei Hening had guessed that many people would die in the game, but she didn't expect so many to die.
Nearly 100,000 players participated in the game, but only 2,729 survived, a survival rate of less than 5%.
She took out the reward from the top player on the leaderboard.
"Congratulations to player [DibiDibi] for obtaining Cheap Shackles*1, Free Melody*1, No Blood Ties, Only Benevolence*1, Mysterious Ritual*1, Find the Ball? I'm a Pro (Title)*1, Mysterious Fragment (Gold)*1, Vehicle Upgrade Card*40, and Copper Coins*5000"
She was very interested in the title and clicked to view it.
"Find the ball? I'm a professional": Do you even know what professional means? After wearing this title, it automatically identifies circular objects within a 50-meter radius.
Disappointment flashed across her eyes. What a useless thing. It's much better to have "I have this membership too".
At the very least, she will receive tangible benefits.
She was about to send a message to Chu Xuange when his phone rang.
"How about we share a bowl of wontons for lunch? There's no food left in the fridge, and we have to go to school soon, so we might not have enough time."
Pei Hening nodded: "Okay."
The chat channel was buzzing with activity, but she wasn't in the mood to watch. Instead, she started studying the vehicle radio on the level 5 vehicle. She didn't know how she pressed the button, but the radio suddenly started playing.
"This is Highway Radio, and I'm your host for today, Wendy. I'm so glad you're listening to my channel."
"—An unexpected announcement: due to unforeseen circumstances, our much-anticipated Lord of the Abyss Clan is unable to give an interview today. To avoid disappointing everyone, I've taken the liberty of inviting the much-anticipated Lord Guhun instead..."
