Normally in this step, you will choose the first countries that appear on the interface because you are using the free version of Hide.me (you will only need the free version because you only download this app once to use it). then delete) so the countries that appear first will be free suggestions for you to choose from (usually all countries suitable for downloading Duel Links).

Delete it and download it again next time because it's not very important for playing Duel Links. Once you've downloaded the game, it's your role. Hide.me's game also ended)
