[Congratulations to player BS Rita for ranking 67th in the special event "chanical Race Rebellion"]
[Reward received: languages of all races x3]
[Reward received: Abyss Skill Blind Box x1]
67th place?!
There was a breakdown of the points, and Rita imdiately opened it up. Sure enough, she found the points for killing the 14th-tier chanical race, D3851130. It was a decent amount of points, and she realized that without this bonus, her ranking would have been sowhere past 300.
It seed like not only damage dealt but also the final blow contributed points.
She had gotten a big one! Rita quietly shifted behind Maple Syrup to hide from the cold stares of so nearby players.
As for the Abyss Skill Blind Box, Rita checked the details: there was an 80% chance of getting an S-level skill, 15% for an SS-level skill, and 5% for an SSS-level skill.
She glanced at the countdown — 76 seconds left.
Rita imdiately took out the Abyss Skill Blind Box, which looked like a half-white, half-golden Pokéball. She opened it right away.
They were about to enter the Abandoned Zone, and she had no idea what to expect there. She needed to convert any usable resources into sothing tangible now, so she’d have more options when she got there.
Perhaps it was the bad luck from earlier in the comrcial district affecting her, but at this mont, her luck turned around.
[Mysterious Power] SSS-Level: This skill can only be used when your health is below 5%. Once activated, your health is locked at 1% for 24 hours. During this ti, healing is impossible. All beings can only deal one instance of damage to you; any subsequent attacks will be ineffective, and damage will bypass both enemy and ally attributes, deducting 0.2% of your health. Each use costs 20% of your mana, and the cooldown is 7 natural days.
Hmm? So after activating this, no matter how strong the enemy is, they’d need five different beings to attack her to actually kill her?!
What kind of twisted Temu is this?
So strong!!
Rita imdiately made a decision: if she got any rewards that could modify skill numbers in the upcoming Golden Tree rewards, she’d use them all on this skill!
She needed to tweak the forced health deduction ratio and the cooldown ti.
Her dream was to one day turn that 0.2% into 0.0001%, and then it would take 10,000 people to kill her! And the best part? She hoped this skill could be used once a day.
What difference would that be from being invincible?
She checked the skill panel. There were no chains attached to this skill, which ant it could be used on the divine battlefield without consuming any mysterious powers.
With this skill, she wouldn’t regret losing this Divine Ga’s rewards, even if she didn’t finish at the top.
Rita checked her languages of all races, noting that none were duplicates. Including the rewards from the cheating ga, she had already accumulated 8 different languages of all races, bringing her total to 687.
And don’t forget the 77 World Graveyards she had grabbed earlier — even after giving Maple Syrup 30, she still had 47 left.
This Divine Ga might not have gone her way in the end, but her haul was incredibly rich.
Rita waited contentedly for the rging of the Abandoned Zone.
She took a glance at the other players still present on the field. Their expressions were all different, but it was clear they were all opening their rewards as soon as they got them.
Her attention then turned to the group of 600 or so players left.
Most had a combat rank of 9-12, with only 12 players, including Rita, below rank 9. There were around 70 players at rank 13 and 14.
Rita hoped that at least she could survive a little longer in the Abandoned Zone.
At least, it would give her a chance to hide in the dark corners and grab more chanical races.
While she was thinking, the stone walls surrounding the marketplace suddenly crumbled into dust and dispersed into the air, revealing the grey-blue sky.
There was no sun or moon in the sky, only a rotating 9th-tier magic cube. Each block of it emitted dazzling light, serving as the primary light source in the Abandoned Zone.
Looking around, she saw the sa black-grey ground as the abandoned marketplace, but here it felt more like a garbage dump.
All around her were heaps of garbage, and among them were broken, incomplete, and non-functioning chanical races.
Yet, to Rita’s eyes, so of these "garbage" still had health bars. They were still "alive"...
In the distance, she could also spot other chanical races and players. They were sitting on the ground, not engaging in combat or conversation.
The players who had just entered the Abandoned Zone did not imdiately start fighting either. Everyone kept their distance, maintaining a wary but sowhat cooperative stance, sticking together while observing their surroundings.
The remaining chanical races began moving toward other chanical races.
Rita tried to open her ladder board to check the battle chat channel, but the ladder board didn’t respond.
Her actions caught the attention of a few players, and they also tried to tap their wrist marks, but none of them received a response.
All the players’ expressions grew serious.
They all realized the sa thing: without any ga ti or mission instructions, what were the conditions to leave the Abandoned Zone?
Death?
Maple Syrup and Rita both flew toward the players who had entered the Abandoned Zone earlier.
Maple Syrup glanced at Rita and said, "Stuck to like a shadow."
In Owlspeak, this term was often used in a playful way between close relations, like when Maple Cang would tease Maple Mu about being her shadow.
Rita: "...I ca first."
Maple Syrup smiled but didn’t say anything more.
Rita felt a bit uneasy as she distanced herself from Maple Syrup. She wasn’t used to this closeness and affection, feeling like she was getting too close to a fire that might burn her.
The players sitting nearby noticed the new arrivals, but there was no imdiate reaction. Even though Maple Syrup was at rank 15, they didn’t react, not even showing any concern or wariness.
This reaction made all the following players frown.
Maple Syrup landed and stopped at a safe distance, then looked toward the highest-ranked player among them.
It was a rank 14 Nuclear Flash, a Yuguo race. Standing at just under a ter tall, with purple short hair and a round face and eyes that reduced any coolness in his appearance.
Maple Syrup spoke in Yuguo language: "Exchange information?"
Nuclear Flash, hugging his knees, poked at the food in the fire with his curved dagger without looking up. "We can’t die, but we can’t leave. No tasks."
Rita, who didn’t know Yuguo, could tell what was going on from their expressions.
Right now, the biggest issue was... she was hungry.
She had been in the Divine Ga for almost 13 hours without eating, but her physical condition was far superior now.
Ever since the global gaification, she hadn’t felt hunger this intensely in a long ti.
Read new chapters at .Côm
She wasn’t worried about the hunger, but the weakness that ca with it. Would it affect her combat power and mobility?
Sothing was wrong here...
