Chapter 388: 032. In the process of version updating_2

Jiaozi Niu shook his head and switched to the normal forum section.

Time sure flew by. Just yesterday, they were helping Li Aozi get into space, and today, the official announcement of the closed beta test had already been made.

Who knew how many players would flood in? Just on Azure Star alone, there would be no less than 200 million people. With so many players, geniuses and pros would be inevitable.

If he hadn’t gone to space with Li Aozi, his advantage would likely be quickly outpaced by those genius players, right?

"But, Starry Abyss is just too much fun. Tanoxi, if it weren’t for the forced update making me log off, I’d want to log in right now."

I wonder what the universe will be like. There should be new plotlines, but with mentors from the Sovereign series paving the way, it shouldn’t be a problem.

Maybe there’s even a chance to unlock a rare occupation in the universe.

The forum was basically filled with speculation about the new version. The closed beta players thoughtfully shared their guilds and teams, hoping to recruit some talent. Some big streamers also shared their gaming experiences, along with live recordings, quickly attracting a wave of fans.

The open beta hadn’t officially started yet, but players forming groups and looking for teammates had become common, and there were even people getting scammed.

"Former Predatory World star rank one, KD 1.7, hit rate 48%, pure marksman, looking for scout and assault teammates at the same level."

"CPDD, I’m fair-skinned and beautiful, with loli voice, boy voice, young man voice, uncle voice, young boy voice, and broadcaster voice with a fake accent, proficient in all. Also good at old eight-line—nicknamed ’Sound of the Future.’"

"My uncle works for the Starry Abyss production team. Big scoop for everyone: don’t choose Frost Plated. The Frost Plated president is dead meat, probably about to go to war soon. Don’t go, their regular soldiers are unbeatable unless you’re in the Alpha Stage."

"Wife’s not home tonight, secretly playing games alone. Come to Sky Ring to team up and fight gangs. Exciting Starry Abyss, full of energy, proving your skill with a Vivo50 and fast food from KFC."

"Scammed! So mad! A guy named WTM-CALL-110 promised me for 30 bucks, I’d get the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow script with auto-movement, lock HP, headshot, magic bullet, stealth perspective, 99.99 million point tickets in a minute. I sent the money, but he gave me Alpha Ring software, and it tortured me all afternoon."

The forum, witnessing biological diversity.

Although Jiaozi Niu spent at least three hours a day browsing the forum, posting pictures and chatting, this time wasn’t just for fun.

Opening the private message inbox, it was filled with various @ messages to him. The latest one was from 15 minutes ago, clearly waiting for quite a while.

Jiaozi Niu hurriedly opened the chatbox and quickly typed a message.
