Chapter 356 - Countdown
Chapter 356: Countdown
As the rate of excavation increased, the unexcavated area of the catacombs world gradually decreased.
This situation directly led to the fact that many people would never see the same kind of large cave in their entire lives, but now it was very likely that they would encounter it, and the probability was quite high.
If you were lucky, you would encounter a person with a good temper, and perhaps they would not have the intention to rob you.
They might even take you flying with them.
But if you encounter someone with a bad temper, they won’t waste their time talking to you. They’ll just do it the moment they met!
It was also because of this that many unprepared survivors were caught unprepared.
Many of them even lost their lives because of this!
At this moment, Klein opened the chat room and frowned slightly as he looked at the SOS messages inside.
Then, he looked at the rankings.
He thought to himself, ‘There are still four to five hundred survivors in the catacombs world. This seems to be a lot, but it’s still too little to throw into the catacombs world.’
‘But there’s still such a massacre. It might affect my subsequent plans.’
Klein shook his head at any moment.
The ones who could be killed were mostly people who hadn’t accomplished much.
Such people would always look like they were praying no matter where they went.
If it weren’t for the fact that they couldn’t live on, they wouldn’t have taken the initiative to explore the area.
This was fine in this level of the cave. After all, they were very far apart. Even if you wanted to lie down, you had to have sufficient food.
Once the food was used up, you had to hand your fate over to the system!
With this in mind, Klein nodded and didn’t plan on speaking.
Then, he looked at the rankings.
At this moment, the competition for the rankings was very intense, and there were people increasing their ranking at every moment.
Among them, Allie and James were very eye-catching.
Klein couldn’t help but nod.
It seemed like these two were also the beneficiaries of his epic equipment.
Under the current situation, these people would level up very quickly.
It wouldn’t be long before they could help him.
However!
What was the meaning of this rate of exploration?
Klein frowned.
‘The current rate of exploration is 89%. This value has been stuck for a long time. Could it mean something behind the scenes? If that’s the case, I wonder if it’s good or bad?’
At that moment.
A huge tremor occurred in the catacombs world.
It was as though the entire catacombs world had experienced an earthquake.
Following that, the system’s clear voice rang out.
Klein hurriedly steadied himself and looked around. After realizing that there were no changes, he looked at the rankings.
At this moment, the rate of exploration had reached 90%!
‘Could it be?’
Klein revealed a puzzled look.
At this moment, the system’s voice rang out.
[Congratulations to the survivors for clearing 90% of the area.]
[You have done all of this and successfully survived in this dangerous and mysterious catacombs world.]
[But, this is only the beginning! Now, your identities have changed from a survivor to an explorer. When the catacombs world is cleared to 90%, you will be forced to trigger the second mission.]
[The second mission. Everyone head to the transition station of the second level of the catacombs.]
[Attention! In the second level of the catacombs, the monsters inside start at tier 5. After tier 6, the monsters will have a certain level of intelligence (depending on their talent). After tier 7, the monsters will have the language of humans.]
[The first mission has been completed. All survivors below tier 5 will be rewarded with one level up. All kinds of gifted magic seeds will be rewarded. Survivors above tier 5 will be rewarded with an epic weapon, and their level will be increased by half a tier.]
The moment the news was released, everyone was shocked.
“Ah! I’ve leveled up.”
“Haha, me too. I’ve also reached tier 5!”
“That’s right. Tier 5 is so strong. I feel like I can blow up my previous self with one hand!”
“Nonsense! Tier 5 increases the circumference of three people. Of course you’re strong. Otherwise, why would you need to level up?”
“Everyone, let me warn you. Although rank is important, the weapon is the key. Because the human body and the crypt creature’s bodies are on completely different levels. No matter how strong your rank is, once you encounter a monster of the same level, you will die a terrible death!”
Everyone was unpleasantly surprised by this person’s words.
At this moment, everyone realized that they were about to enter the next mission!
The next mission, the monster’s starting point was tier 5!
This way, the survivors became the lowest level again.
They had to struggle hard from the lowest level again.
Suddenly, someone spoke.
“Forget it, I’m not going to the second floor. I’ll just retire on the first floor. Who cares?!”
“Yeah! With my strength, I’ll just randomly encounter a monster on the second floor and it’ll be gone. Are we going to deliver vegetables?”
“Hehe, yeah! This floor is so good. Find a more beautiful cave and raise seven or eight beautiful women. After leveling up the base, I can lie down and collapse in the cave!”
“Right, right. Everyone, don’t go. It’s not easy to get a foothold in the catacombs world. This is great. We haven’t even rested yet, and we’re already facing danger again!”
“But, have you ever thought whether the catacombs world will allow us to do this?”
The moment this person spoke, everyone fell silent.
Indeed, the question now wasn’t whether they could stay here, but whether the catacombs would allow them to stay here.
Otherwise, why would they be given such a big reward?
Thinking of this, everyone’s originally delighted hearts instantly turned cold.
However, at this moment, the system’s announcement sounded again.
[The reward has been successfully distributed. The next item will be announced.]
[Please note that after the reward has been distributed, the monsters on the first floor will gradually enter berserk mode. The berserk value will increase from 1 to 100. The monsters will also become stronger and stronger. At that time, those who remain in the first floor’s catacombs will be completely killed!]
[In order for everyone to reach the second floor transit station as soon as possible, the cave walls will be weakened by 50%, and the daily number of excavations will be eliminated!]
The moment the news was released, everyone was stunned!
“F*ck, as expected! The system will not let us have a good time!”
“Damn it, I don’t want the rewards, I don’t want to increase my level. Let me leave! Let me stay on the first floor!”
“F*ck, f*ck, damn the system! I’ll smash him one day!”
“Damn it! Now we have to go to the second floor, or else even if we stay here, once the food runs out, we’ll be devoured by these monsters that are getting stronger and stronger!”
“I know the logic, but why am I at the edge of the map?”
“F*ck, me too. D*mn it, how am I supposed to get there from so far away?”
“Are there any good brothers forming a team?”
At this moment, a huge countdown appeared in front of everyone.
The countdown showed that the time was 24 hours.
Once the time was up, the crypt creatures’ strength would begin to increase. The survivors of the catacombs world would face a life-and-death situation!
But the only good thing was that the catacombs world had lifted the final restrictions, and they still had a chance!
