Mistaking a horror game for a romance novel, he unexpectedly became a legend.

A gathering at the Kunpeng team headquarters to celebrate Su Lie, also known as "Supreme One," becoming the new number one player in the game.

The banquet hall was divided into two groups: one group celebrated for Su Lie, while the other group watched the spectacle with indifference.

Those who fawned over Su Lie surrounded him, offering him toasts. Su Lie drank each cup with a smile in his eyes. After so many years, he had finally become number one, and he could finally hold his head high.

Not far from Su Lie, a small group of team members, seeing Su Lie's happy expression, slammed their wine glasses heavily on the table. Their companions immediately said:

"What are you doing? They're celebrating their number one ranking, don't spoil the fun."

Another person said, "We still need to give face to the first place team, so that they can take care of you in future team competitions."

The teammate who smashed the cup said coldly, "You think it's possible for him to take care of you? Others may not know who Su Lie is, but don't we, as a team, know him well?"

"He's ranked number one. Doesn't he know how he got that number one spot?"

"Lu Xiao took them into the game and helped them level up, but after the game was completed, only Lu Xiao didn't log out. Is that reasonable?"

The woman at the table silently drank a glass of wine upon hearing this. The relationship between the Kunpeng team members and Lu Xiao was just so-so, but it was undeniable that since Lu Xiao came to the Kunpeng team, their team had become the number one team in the game, and they had benefited a lot from it.

Moreover, when facing high-risk team games, Lu Xiao will definitely ensure their safety when leading the team.

Su Lie has always been subordinate to Lu Xiao. He is ruthless and unlike Lu Xiao, who is gentle and considerate of others. Moreover, the whole team knows about his ambition to become number one.

This time, they went on a mission together, an SSS-level high-level match, which was a team competition. Everyone has witnessed Lu Xiao's strength. It's normal for others not to be able to get out of this game, but no one believes that Lu Xiao can't.

What makes Su Lie's status as number one most taboo is that he had already completed the SSS-level game they participated in.

Despite passing through customs, Lu Xiao got into trouble. Who would believe he caused the accident himself?

Everyone had doubts, but most chose to ignore them.

A team member suddenly barged into the bar where the Kunpeng team was celebrating.

After the team member entered, his eyes quickly searched the bar for someone, and when he saw Su Lie, he immediately rushed over.

Su Lie was clinking glasses with someone when Xiao Bai angrily called out Su Lie's name and raised her fist to smash him.

Su Lie easily dodged the punch, then turned around and punched Xiao Bai in the stomach.

Xiao Bai's face immediately contorted in pain.

Xiao Bai was Lu Xiao's only close friend, aside from the deceased senior member of the Kunpeng team.

Xiao Bai's level was much lower than theirs, so he didn't participate in this team competition. He had just left his own game area when he saw that Lu Xiao's character in the game lobby had changed to "Supreme."

Lu Xiao's rank is higher than Su Lie's. If Su Lie became number one, then Lu Xiao must have gotten into trouble.

In that game, Lu Xiao brought a total of eight people in, and all the members of the Kunpeng team came out except for him.

Su Lie has wanted to become the number one team in the Kunpeng team for a long time. Every time Su Lie and Lu Xiao meet, Su Lie looks ambitious and ruthless. Xiao Bai doesn't believe that Lu Xiao caused the accident himself; it must have been Su Lie's doing.

Xiao Bai: "Su Lie, you caused Lu Xiao to die in the game, and you still have the nerve to celebrate."

Su Lie remained calm upon hearing Lu Xiao's name.

"Lu Xiao's accident was his own doing, it has nothing to do with me. If you don't believe me, ask the other teammates who entered the game together. Which of them can prove that I killed Lu Xiao?"

Xiao Bai turned around anxiously to find the teammates who had entered the game with Lu Xiao. Suddenly, she saw one in the corner and immediately went to grab him.

"Lu Xiao has helped you level up quite a bit. Although he doesn't often communicate with everyone, he always tries his best to ensure everyone's safety in the game. Do you think Lu Xiao really caused this accident?"

The team member being held by Xiaobai glanced at Su Lie, who squinted as if certain that these people wouldn't say anything.

When Xiaobai saw him looking at Su Lie, she immediately said, "You don't need to be afraid of him. All the members of the Kunpeng team are here, and the captain is here too. Su Lie can't possibly control everything."

The team member looked troubled and slowly pushed away Xiaobai's hands that were gripping his arm: "It's not that I'm unwilling to tell you, but we really don't know."

The team member continued, "During the last two hours of the game, all the team members were scattered due to the zombie riot."

"We didn't come out together until Su Lie finished the mission in the last half hour of the game, and only after we came out did we realize that Lu Xiao was gone."

Xiao Bai didn't believe it: "There will be a system notification when a player dies. If Lu Xiao really died, the game would definitely have notified you. How could you only find out that Lu Xiao was missing after you came out?"

When this was mentioned, Su Lie tightened his grip on the wine glass. Yes, there would be a system notification sound when a player died. Lu Xiao was indeed not dead, but he had left Lu Xiao in the game forever, which was no different from being dead.

This would leave a future problem for myself, but it doesn't matter, since no one can go to such a dangerous place to rescue people.

This is a horror game; who wouldn't value their life?

The other team members knew that Xiaobai and Lu Xiao had a good relationship, and they could understand Xiaobai's excitement. Seeing that Xiaobai didn't believe them, the other two players who entered the game together also said:

“We’re not lying to you. What he said is true. We didn’t hear any news of Lu Xiao’s death, but it’s true that Lu Xiao didn’t come out with us.”

Seeing everyone say this, Xiao Bai suddenly felt a glimmer of hope: perhaps Lu Xiao was not dead.

According to the rules of horror games, players level 10 and above have one chance to freely choose a session. Xiaobai is currently level 47, and he wants to go to the session where Lu Xiao disappeared to see if Lu Xiao is dead or not.

Xiao Bai: "Lu Xiao is so important to our Kunpeng team. Now that he's in trouble, we can't just ignore it. I'm planning to go to match 2313. Is there anyone willing to team up with me?"

As soon as Xiaobai spoke, everyone fell silent. He looked at the team members that Lu Xiao had helped, and when Xiaobai's gaze swept over them, they immediately lowered their heads.

The anger that Xiaobai had just suppressed immediately flared up again.

"What do you mean?"

"Captain, don't you want Lu Xiao to come back?"
