There were less than 24 hours left before the first round of the proxy war dungeon officially ended.
The players were more enthusiastic than ever. Some of them even refreshed the official website every two minutes to see if there were any changes in the rankings. After that, they would take screenshots and post them on the forum.
However, as the deadline was approaching, the rankings, especially those at the top, had gradually stabilized. The first place was still held by Arc of Light's president, Eryue Weicheng, with 2,892 points. However, the second place was overtaken by a player named Tchaikovsky from the second front line. Tchaikovsky's score was only 65 points lower than Eryue Weicheng's. His appearance had also broken Arc of Light's monopoly on the top three spots.
However, other than Tchaikovsky's sudden appearance, there were no other changes in the top ten. Silver Wings' president, Pegasus, who was originally ranked tenth, was squeezed out of the top ten and ranked eleventh with 2,240 points. Although the rewards for the top fifty were the same, for a big guild like Silver Wings, not being in the top ten was a failure in itself. It would bring a series of negative effects.
For example, some people on the forum had begun to gloat over Silver Wing's misfortune. They analyzed that Silver Wing had fallen behind Arc of Light and the Second Frontline since the death of the former guild leader. They suggested that Silver Wing be expelled from the three major guilds. However, Silver Wing's guild members quickly replied to refute them. Both sides then began to engage in a war of words. Gradually, the topic was diverted to the boring question of how many Pegasi could defeat a Siege of February.
As a result, a refresher suddenly found that the top ten rankings had been refreshed again. Everyone on the list, including Eryue Weicheng, had dropped one place. Now, the first place had been replaced by a player named β.
This was an earth-shattering piece of news, especially after everyone discovered that the three major Guilds had collectively remained silent on this matter. Not a single Guild had spoken up about it. This meant that this player named β did not belong to any of the three Guilds.
An independent player? So fierce?!
Although the internet had no memory, it had not been a long time since then. Soon, people remembered that β was the only two players who scored more than 1,000 points in the first round of the proxy war. The other player was Simon, who scored 1,475 points in the first round. So far, no one knew how he did it.
They could only lament that this guy must have cheated. After that, the guy named Simon's score was forever fixed at 1475 points. As time passed, more and more people believed that he had met with an accident in the game, so no one paid attention to him anymore.
As for β, everyone just realized that his ranking had changed a few hours ago. He had quietly moved to 37th place, and then half a minute ago, he had risen to the first place on the leaderboard.
Who the hell is this guy?! Moreover, he had cleared two dungeons in one go without any rest in between.
The players on the forum could not help but ask about this player named β. Unfortunately, no one could tell where he came from. In fact, at the end of the first game, when he scored more than 1,000 points, he had attracted a lot of attention. However, as famous as his score was, he was also mysterious.
This guy named β seemed to have jumped out of a rock. Whether it was in reality or in the game, no player had ever encountered him. Naturally, no one could collect any information related to him.
However, just when everyone was lamenting that the first place of the first round of the proxy war was taken by an extremely mysterious independent player, no one expected that the top ten positions on the leaderboard would be refreshed again.
The mysterious player named β only stayed in the first place for less than a quarter of an hour before he was replaced by another player.
At first, everyone thought that the three major guilds had come up with some big move again. However, when they saw the name in the first place, everyone was stunned. That was because the person in the first place was actually a familiar ID.
– Simon
3,025 points.
Due to the sudden appearance of β this time, some people who were bored also checked Simon's ranking. They could prove that Simon's score was still at 1,475 points in the first game a few minutes ago. In other words, this guy had only played two rounds of the proxy war so far, and he was the only player with more than 3,000 points. He had 27 points more than β, who was in second place.
If the onlookers were surprised by Beta's sudden appearance, they didn't know what to say about Simon's sudden resurrection.
— Is this a f * cking hack?!

— If he really got 1,475 points in the first game, it would be quite normal for him to get 1,550 points in the second game. It would be better to say that he did not get such a high score in the second game, which is why he cheated.
Spokesperson: Madrid Unbelievable
— Is this guy from LS kidding me? Isn't this cheating?!!! Show me how you can get more than 1,000 points in a single game.
Spokesperson: Monkey Sai Lei
— Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't. Didn't β get more than 1,000 points in a single game? And Arc of Light's leader, Eryue Weicheng, almost reached 1,000 points in a single game.
Spokesperson: Madrid Unbelievable
— But isn't his 3,000 points in two games a little too much? Are we really playing the same game?!!!

…
As more and more people noticed the long-lost name in the first place on the leaderboard, the forum completely exploded. The main reason was that this guy named Simon had completely exceeded their common sense. If he got more than 1,400 points in the first game, it could still be explained as a coincidence. But the fact that he got more than 1,500 points in the second game proved that it was not a coincidence at all.
But the problem was that no one knew how he did it. Aside from the mysterious β, Eryue Weicheng was now recognized by all players as the top player in the game, and even with the help of the entire Arc of Light guild, his average score in each of the three games didn't exceed 1,000 points. Anyone who participated in the game knew that it would get harder and harder to earn points in the later stages of the game. Simon's lead over Eryue Weicheng by 500 points in every game was a little too much.
Soon enough, a thread titled "Can a Player Average 1500 Points?" was pushed to the top of the forum. There were all kinds of comments, but no one was able to come up with a convincing solution. However, the reason was actually very simple for the people involved in the thread.
After all, Zhang Heng had stayed in the last quest for 270 days. Although he did not deliberately collect shellac records after that, he had an acquisition agreement with Gold Digger. The latter would still provide him with shellac records, especially when he stayed in the quest for a long time. The number of shellac records he accumulated became very impressive. So when Zhang Heng left the quest, he found out that his ranking had returned to the first place on the leaderboard.
