“Welcome to Summoner’s Rift.” The elves put on their virtual reality headsets. Different from the original game interface, the summoners in the system version of the game were in a chamber full of magical infrastructure after entering the game.

It seemed to be an ancient summoner’s hall.

“The people on this continent are used to battling ever since the ancient times.”

Magical lights flowed in the area, and the wall with neatly engraved magic runes before them revealed a battered land.

Although it was a virtual scene, it looked very real. It seemed to be the world outside this ancient hall, or it was just telling a story that had happened in this world.

The flames of war spread from the plains to the distant snow mountains. The dark sky was full of shadows from the void.

Purple shooting stars flew across the sky into the distance. When it knocked down half a mountain, the viewers realized that it was a wave blinding magic light.

Flames of war burned up villages and devoured nations. Countless people shed blood on this vast land…

Finally, a huge earthquake and an extremely horrifying magic storm struck.

“People finally realized that the world could no longer stand the damages afflicted by the war of runes.”

“The grand mages in Valoran gathered with countless powerful summoners and reached the agreement to manage conflicts in a controllable and systematic way. Therefore, the League of Legends was founded.”

“All the conflicts would be solved by duels between great champions summoned by summoners with different political opinions on this arena.”

“As more and more summoners and champions joined in, no one was as stupid as to mess with so many powerful existences. Therefore, despite the continuous conflicts between hostile political factions, order returned to the continent.”

…

“The war in this world will exist in this way from now on?” As the queen of the Elf Clan, Kellybel had lived for a long time and knew how horrifying wars could be, and that was why she was amazed by the method. “I didn’t know that wars could take place in this form!”

Wars can be fought in virtual reality?!

After watching the background of the game, the virtual image before them showed two options. One was for beginners who would enter the newbie’s tutorial to learn the basic operations; the other option was entering the game directly.

Since it was a free game, most of the players decided to try it. After their hard experience in Dark Souls 3, they no longer overestimated themselves and watched the tutorial first to understand the basic rules. After that, they chose to play the higher-level PvP mode to battle with other players.

The players in the shop grew steadily.

In the Canglan City Shop alone, there were tens of thousands of players, and that was the number in the early morning instead of peak hours.

Since there was only one server named Ionia in the game right now, and everyone was a beginner, almost everyone instantly got into the game.

…

At this moment, Nalan Mingxue turned on the livestream as she queued for a match.

She even got an elf to queue up for a match together with her.

Of course, QQ voice chat was necessary.

“Oh… I got in!” This was from the private QQ private chat channel named “Elder Su Tianji’s Palace”. Sala and Nalan Mingxue were listed in one small room with Su Tianji, Lan Yan, Xu Zixin, and some visiting elves.

They were all girls.

Meanwhile, people like Nalan Hongwu and An Huwei were also queueing for a match in their respective QQ channels.

“We’re in as well!” In the new shop at Dongxuan Cave Abode, the disciples of the Heavenly Faction were matched up with opponents.

[Prompt: you can choose and summon a champion whom you like. But in Summoner’s Rift, any champion can only unleash part of their strength and stay in a relative balance.]

[Prompt: after your champion die, they will revive at the base after a short time of recovery since you only summon the projected images of the champions with only a percentage of their strength.]

[Prompt: you can locate everyone in the fog of war through the magic map in your hands.]

“…”

After a series of prompts, most players entered the game.

“Xuexue, who do you plan to choose?” Before the players was a simple map listing all kinds of champions and their 3D virtual images.

“What is broken can be reforged!” A valiant female voice sounded in the QQ voice channel, and Nalan Mingxue had chosen a female champion who was holding a huge broken blade.

As with other games, the players could only choose the same-gender champions except for the non-humanoid champions.

“Oh! I was planning to choose this one…!” Since Nalan Mingxue had chosen this character, Sala had to choose another one.

“I’ll choose…this one! The Frost Archer!” We elves excel in archery!

…

“My blade is yours!” In Dongxuan Cave Abode Shop, the black-robed Elder Dugu Xiao’s screen showed a weathered face under goggles.

My E-Sports journey begins!

Start!

With heavy music, they gradually entered the world with their champions’ strengths and souls.

Rows of magic crystals and turrets sat on the vast land majestically, and the lush ocean-like green forests covered the whole valley.

“Lady luck is smiling!”

“The unseen blade is the deadliest!” In the shadows, a pair of long and narrow eyes opened slowly.

“Stand with me, brothers and sisters!” A battle flag was raised high.

“Magic? I’ll show you real magic!” The magic storms from the ancient times flashed with dangerous colors!

“They will receive you like champions.” Blood dyed the land red!

“…”

Voices, either deep, luring, or deadly, rose in their ears!

Behind them, a huge and grand soul slowly woke up from deep sleep. They were summoned here, and they were the greatest champions, the strongest warriors, and the most legendary mages!

They were also… the most powerful weapons!

At this moment, they gathered here.

The sky was lit up while lights shone all over the land.

“Welcome to Summoner’s Rift!”

The war began at this moment.
