Chapter 355 Bullshit! Did they write your name on the ground?
When Lin Tian stepped into the final [Misty Mud Pool], it was already close to dusk.
The monsters here are generally level 65-68, and the environment is even harsher, with poisonous fog and illusions intertwined.
However, for Lin Tian, who possesses "True Sight" to break invisibility, "Purifying Radiance" to resist control, and super-strong area-of-effect damage, there is no essential difference.
Here he encountered a cunning opponent—Shadowweaver Shaktis (Lv.68, boss), a spider demon capable of merging into shadows, summoning shadow clones, and unleashing mental shrieks.
Shaktis attempted to confuse Lin Tian with illusions and clones, while her true form lurked in the shadows, preparing for a fatal blow.
However, Lin Tian calmly activated "True Sight," and the pure light dispelled the fog and illusions, making her perfect stealth impossible to hide from.
When she was forced to reveal herself and tried to control Lin Tian with her mental scream, the starlight of "Purification Radiance" had already lit up, and all control effects vanished.
What followed was a brutal, unpretentious crushing force.
"Astral Imprisonment" locked her movement and abilities, "Star Ray" pierced her fragile mage body, and finally, a small-scale "Starstorm" completely purified all traces of her existence.
[Defeat Shadow Weaver Shaktis (Lv.68 boss)... Gained 580 Upgrade Points... Gained 820 Overlord Power... Gained Material: Shadow Core (S-grade)...]
As dusk completely enveloped the earth, Lin Tian stood on a muddy, mirror-like clearing ground that he had cleared with "Shinra Tensei," surrounded by the deathly silence left behind after several maps had been swept away.
Celia returned and stood beside him.
Bring up the system panel, and resource statistics are clearly displayed:
[Current upgrade points: 13,725,410]
[Current Dominance Power: 332,288]
Killing level 60-68 monsters provides an average of about 25 upgrade points and 35 Dominator Power per normal monster, while elite monsters and regional bosses provide significantly more.
Several hours of intensive and efficient clearing yielded results far exceeding those from lower-level maps.
However, Lin Tian's gaze swept over the SSS-level and even god-level skills on the skill panel, which required one million or even hundreds of millions of upgrade points to advance.
"Over ten million upgrade points, and over three hundred thousand points of Dominator's Power." Upgrade points can only upgrade 13 skills to SSS rank; that's still a long way off.
His gaze seemed to pierce through the darkness before him, reaching towards a distant, unknown place.
"Return to the city," Lin Tian commanded calmly as he leaped onto the white tiger.
The white tiger roared and rode away on flames, disappearing into the deepening night.
Only a few map areas behind him, completely "purified," remained silent, as if telling the story of the arrival of a short but absolute ruler.
In the final days, maintain or even improve this harvesting efficiency.
......
[24 hours and 00 minutes before the start of the preliminary rounds]
When the crimson countdown numbers across the entire server precisely jumped to "24:00:00," an invisible yet heavy, leaden pressure gripped the heart of every player across the continent.
Seven days.
The seven days of preparation time slipped away like sand through our fingers.
Whether people are rushing to get ahead, anxiously hoarding, or desperately giving up, that inescapable moment is finally approaching in the hours.
Across the mainland, billions of eyes, some tense, some feverish, some numb, gaze up at the same string of slowly shrinking numbers in the corner of their vision.
The air was thick with an almost tangible anxiety, a pungent smell fermented from fear, ambition, madness, and the last vestiges of hope.
The entire continent was plunged into the darkest, most hysterical frenzy and spasm before dawn.
The once vast wilderness map, large enough to accommodate countless players for exploration and leveling up, has become a fiercely contested and bloody battlefield in these last twenty-four hours.
......
Western suburbs of Luoxia City, outside the White Bone Cave (Recommended level 20-25).
This was originally a moderately efficient monster spawn point, respawning slow-moving skeletons and ghosts.
At this moment, all that could be seen was a throng of heads.
The player density has far exceeded the respawn rate of the gray-white skeletons.
Often, just as a skeleton emerges from the earth, before it even has a chance to raise its rusty bone knife, it is engulfed by seven or eight beams of light of different colors from different directions.
The skeleton instantly disintegrated, and the players whose attacks missed glared at each other, their tension palpable.
"Get out of the way! This area was first entered by our 'Blackthorn' team!" Li Gang, a warrior wielding a heavy sword, roared at several players trying to approach from a distance. His armor had several fresh scratches.
"Bullshit! Did I write your name on the ground? Monsters spawn unclaimed, whoever gets them keeps them!" An assassin with the ID Wang Hai on the other side was not to be outdone, his dagger gleaming coldly.
Behind him were two mages and a priest, clearly forming a complete five-person squad.
"Looking for trouble, huh?" Li Gang glared at him. Zhao Xiaoli, the mage in his squad, had already begun to chant silently, while Sun Hao, the shield guard, raised his tower shield.
The conflict needed almost no further reason. An elite "Bone Warrior" happened to spawn in the open space between the two.
"Let's do it!"
Someone shouted first, and the light of fireballs, ice spikes, arrows, and charges instantly replaced the conversation.
Two small teams, ten people in total, fought each other fiercely for the meager experience, a few silver coins, and perhaps useful equipment that this elite monster might bring.
Roars, skill explosions, and dying screams filled the air.
Other players nearby, who were also vying for the common monsters, all turned to look. Some gloated, some indifferently avoided the situation, and some were eager to join in, hoping to be the ones to reap the benefits.
The battle ended in just three minutes.
The "Blackthorn" squad wiped out their opponents at the cost of losing one rogue, but all of them were wounded, and mage Zhao Xiaoli's mana was almost depleted.
Before they could even enjoy their loot, another group of players on their flank coldly set their sights on them...
This scenario plays out every minute and every second in all maps from level 15 to 30 where the efficiency is "reasonable".
The order has completely collapsed, and guild agreements and unspoken understandings among solo players are as fragile as cicada wings under the pressure of survival.
Anxiety and resentment spread like a plague, and a single spark could ignite a bloody conflict.
......
Southeast of Yanyang City, Lizardman Swamp (Recommended Level 28-32).
The situation here is more "orderly," but also more suffocating.
