“This is the ticket I give you. I look forward to the day you change your mind.” The Machine King condensed data from its fingertips, forming a gold card.
The gold card flew toward Xu Lang, who caught it with one hand.
[Dawn City Pass (Advanced)]
[Type: Pass]
[Effect: Upon use, enter Dawn City and gain a certain social status]
[Introduction: Dawn City is a capital of machines. If you go there, you might beco a governor or an honored foreign guest]
Xu Lang was surprised.
He seed to have sothing similar already.
That was the Dusk City Resident Certificate—one a pass, the other a residence permit. The effects were about the sa, except the Machine King was clearly more generous and friendly.
That old crow Wesright couldn't be trusted.
"The humans on my planet kept their spark because of your choice. You also saved from a major mistake. This is a small reward I give you." A small, inconspicuous groove split open on the Machine King's chest, and a small purple card popped out.
Xu Lang raised his hand and caught this highly technological little card, his heart pounding wildly.
Jackpot, family!
[Overlord Level Superweapon Spirit Core]
[Type: Item]
[Level: 50]
[Rarity: Legendary]
[Effect: Upon use, gain an armory built from your own life data. This armory is an independent internal space. Weapons stored in the armory will gain new set bonuses, beco completely bound to you, and your vitality can repair their durability. Maximum of nine items can be stored]
A level 50 Legendary item—way too overpowered!!!
An unprecedented massive drop made Xu Lang wonder if his eyes were playing tricks on him.
This thing... was it really sothing he could get without fighting, without stacking the lives of all Mad King Building players on the line? How was this so unreal!
"Ti's up. I have to go." The Machine King straightened up and suddenly asked one last question: "Do you think humans and machine life can coexist peacefully?"
At that mont, Xu Lang thought of that famous civil service exam question.
The Party and the people—who cos first?
The forr was wrong, the latter was also wrong. The correct answer was that the Party and the people were one, with no distinction in priority.
Yet right now, Xu Lang felt the sincerity of the Machine King and didn't want to give so canned textbook answer.
He was silent for a mont, then said, "Humans are an extrely unstable race. Sotis they even want to destroy themselves. But at the sa ti, this proves that humans possess a critical spirit, that they can be optimized and reford. If you can be the strictest father to humanity, I actually wouldn't mind."
After all, he didn't live in Dawn City anyway.
"Hahahaha!" The Machine King laughed loudly.
In fact, it had already done so. It was already the strictest father to the Human Federation.
Seeing the Machine King turn to leave, Xu Lang also asked a question.
"By the way, you actually know about the existence of the Myriad Races?"
When the Machine King invited him, it said they would stand above the Myriad Races.
"This world is far bigger than you think." The Machine King turned around and walked away quickly.
Hearing this, Xu Lang's expression froze.
He had thought the Machine King was so hick from the countryside, completely constrained by the dormitory building. Even if it wasn't an NPC, it was just a filler brought in by the dorm. But the truth seed to be otherwise.
Maybe he was the hick.
The Machine King knew about other tispaces and civilizations. Maybe it even had a deep understanding of the Blood Mist World and the dormitory building!
Also, the Frost Ghost King was suppressed when entering the Safe Zone. Why wasn't the Machine King? What was the essential difference between the two?
What exactly was the operating chanism of the dormitory building? Truly baffling!
"I wonder if we'll ever et again."
Xu Lang watched the Machine King walk out of the Safe Zone and disappear into Dawn City.
A mont later, the entire world was plunged into darkness!
This was absolute pitch blackness—even consciousness was covered by this darkness!
Xu Lang's soul tenacity was incredibly strong, yet even he fell into a dazed state at that mont, unaware of what was happening around him.
By the ti his consciousness cleared, the Blood Mist had already covered the sky again.
Outside the Safe Zone, the Blood Mist was thick. The clear sky of yesterday felt like a dream that had never existed.
Taptaptap~
Cao Yaxuan and the others opened their dormitory door and rushed out.
"The ga is over. We survived!!!"
The girls cheered and celebrated, feeling each other's vitality.
Seeing the Machine King turn and leave, it was as if the dark cloud over their hearts had been lifted. They felt like they had been given a second life!
Even this cold, sinister, raw air of the Mad King Building tasted so sweet when breathed in!
The Machine King's retreat announced the complete end of the seventh round of the ga.
The Final Act had fallen.
[Mad King Building Broadcast—]
[Congratulations to everyone for surviving to the end]
[Detected only one household of players remaining in Mad King Building. Triggered event: "Sole Survivor"]
[Due to special circumstances, point rewards are temporarily suspended. Event rewards are now being settled]
[Event "Transcendence," Event Rating "S" Grade. Event leader Xu Lang has obtained the Legendary Title "Transcender"]
[Event "Sole Survivor," Event Rating "A" Grade. All mbers of Dorm 200 have obtained the Excellent Title "Sole Survivor"]
The Dormitory Broadcast seed to be in a hurry this ti. It didn't even say when the next ga would start. After hastily distributing the event rewards to Xu Lang, it ended.
"Sothing feels off with Mad King Building." Cao Yaxuan felt sothing was wrong but didn't understand why.
The others were also slightly startled, their guesses running wild. They didn't even check the effects of their titles.
Just then, a bizarre, mournful howl ca from outside!
The sound was terrifying to the extre. It didn't sound like a monster, nor like a natural disaster like a fire or thunder. It was more like the wail of an abstract entity just before it was about to shatter.
Everyone staggered, almost falling, feeling as if the world was spinning.
Xu Lang fared a little better. He summoned two Blood Rakshasa clones to drag the won back into the room.
Once inside the dorm, the won felt a little better, while Xu Lang worked nonstop, adjusting the angle of the Surveillance Cara.
Although the Surveillance Cara seed to be installed at the door, after several rounds of upgrades, its field of view could already leave the range of Mad King Building and see very far away.
And now, Xu Lang adjusted the view to the direction of the terrifying sound.
That place was... Twilight Building!
Suddenly, Xu Lang thought of sothing. He opened the chat room and was shocked to find that everyone else's nas had gone dim.
Wu Huihui and the others weren't dead. They were safe and sound in the Demon Box World!
But their player status was already gone!
When the gate is broken and not repaired in ti, the player loses their player status!
From there, Xu Lang thought of another terrifying outco.
Mad King Building still had one last survivor in Dorm 200. What about Twilight Building?!
"Xu Lang, has Twilight Building been wiped out?" Sherry suddenly grabbed Xu Lang's arm tightly, a look of terror on her face.
"It should be..." Xu Lang's expression was stiff. An ominous premonition churned in his heart.
There were many rumors about what happened when a dormitory building was wiped out!
Generally speaking, people agreed with the theory that monsters would replace the players. But at the sa ti, there was another widely circulated theory!
That theory was that a dormitory building that lost its player defenders would transform into an unspeakable horror!
The others turned pale, staring at the surveillance screen. They felt this possibility was very high.
Because right now, Twilight Building was mutating!
Amid the howls, Twilight Building rose with a hazy twilight aura. Its structure twisted, like a giant about to stand up!
Twilight Building had gone dark. It was transforming in a dark, grim, and tragic direction. Even the Safe Zone over there was becoming eerie, as if it was squirming.
Maybe this was the true face of a dormitory building.
Just then, Mad King Building made its move!
Literally made a move!
A terrifying blood-colored giant hand with twelve fingers extended from the top of Mad King Building and appeared over Twilight Building in an instant!
Like a celestial being pressing down from above, it grabbed hold of Twilight Building!
This scene was bizarre and horrifying. One building was attacking another building!
