Apocalypse: Infinite Evolution Starts from Attribute Allocation - Chapter 769: Thrive Dangerous Land

“Something is wrong here.” Master Qingning said.

“What do you think?” Wang Ye looked at his senior sister.

Other than possessing an ultimate talent, Life Decay, this Senior Sister of his was also an absolute genius.

Back on Primordial Star, she had gotten six stars for all three social science subjects. Even Xian Yuyan could not catch up to her.

In terms of wisdom and knowledge, as well as breaking restrictions and arrays, she was the best.

His Senior Sister’s contribution was the greatest on the matter of his being able to leave the Reverent Seclusion Garden back then.

“Let’s see if we’ll encounter a second high-dimensional universe beast,” Master Qingning said.

“Alright.” Wang Ye understood.

If it was just a chance encounter, it was meaningless. However, if they were ‘lucky’ to encounter a second one… That would be intriguing.

…

In a desolate area.

“Commander, we’re now straying from the core of the dangerous land,” Loren said.

“It doesn’t matter. That’s not the real target.” Xia Ludi spoke gently, giving off a soft and warm feeling.

“Are you looking for clues about the high-dimensional universe beasts?” Hai Ruyi said.

“Yes.” Xia Ludi nodded. “There shouldn’t be any high-dimensional universe beasts in Thrive Dangerous Land. Since they have appeared, they must be the key clue to the mission.”

“However, the core of the dangerous land is rich in energy. There are more fierce beasts and thus more Sky merits.” Another intermediate six-winged dimensional lord member raised an objection.

“With Young Master Ruth’s personality, she wouldn’t give such an easy mission,” Xia Ludi said softly. “If we go to the core of the dangerous land… It’s hard to say if we can advance to the top ten, but we definitely won’t be in the top three, or even the top five.”

“Cut the crap. Just follow the commander!” Loren barked.

Xia Ludi looked at Loren and Hai Ruyi with a smile.

Her combat prowess was not outstanding, but it was enough to have two close friends who trusted her by her side.

“You might have overlooked a very pure point,” Xia Ludi continued. “The first mission, its name is – treasure hunting in the dangerous land.”

…

Peng!

Wang Ye killed another fierce beast and obtained 120,000 evolution points.

It was very easy.

It was good to have two thugs, especially Xiao Gang, whose surging demonic power was supported by the energy of his gifted demon core. He was simply a mobile energy bank.

Their great paths of the demon core were both in the intermediate realm, but Xiao Gang’s energy was five times greater than Little White’s after he used his talent of Saint Boar Spring, which could recover endlessly.

Eh?

Wang Ye looked at the team’s Sky merits.

“What’s wrong?” An Lingwu came over.

“They’re both level 3 High Dimension Lords, but the sum of Sky merits given is different. The first high-dimensional universe beast gave me 20 Sky merits,” Wang Ye said. “But this level 3 fierce beast only gave me 10 Sky merits.”

“It must be because the ratio is different. I’ve heard about the high-dimensional battlefield from my sister before,” An Lingwu said. “Killing a low-grade High Dimension Lord of the Dark race gives you 100 Sky merits, 300 Sky merits for a medium-grade one, and 1000 Sky merits for a high-grade one.”

“10 times is the maximum.” Wang Ye was deep in thought.

The difference was quite big.

In other words, in the second high-dimensional battlefield mission, under the same circumstances, the Sky merits obtained would be ten times more than the first mission?

Then what was the point of setting up the first mission?

To screen the candidates just for the sake of doing so?

It was impossible.

This wasn’t the way Sharuth did things.

If it were a reasonable distribution, never mind 50 – 50, the ratio of Sky merits between the two missions should at least be 30 – 70 or 40 – 60.

His gaze fell on his senior sister, who was not far away. She was standing in front of a tall tree, her delicate hand touching the trunk, and she was deep in thought.

“What’s wrong?” Wang Ye walked over and asked.

“This is the Heaven-Reaching Divine Tree,” Master Qingning said softly.

“Oh?” Wang Ye touched the withered tree trunk with his hand. There was no vitality. “It’s been dead for a long time.”

“This is a divine tree that can only appear in areas with extremely abundant life force,” Master Qingning said.

“Have you sensed the innate great path of life?” Wang Ye asked.

“No.” Master Qingning shook her head.

“I understand.” Wang Ye was deep in thought.

Understand what?

An Lingwu tilted her head.

She suddenly realized that she couldn’t understand what they were saying.

“This place is very likely to be the Thrive Dangerous Land,” Wang Ye said, “The dangerous land was previously a huge chaos realm. Thrive Chaos Realm had an abundance of life force. That’s why it could give birth to a divine tree of life like the Heaven-Reaching Divine Tree. After all, with the current density of life force in the dangerous land, it’s impossible for the divine tree to appear.”

“There are many treasures of life in Thrive Dangerous Land,” An Lingwu understood. “This is the true face of the mission of treasure hunting in the dangerous land! The fierce beasts are actually just a cover. The real purpose is to find valuable treasures of life!”

Master Qingning nodded.

“I guess so.” Wang Ye smiled indifferently and didn’t comment.

There were still many doubts and confusions that had not been resolved.

For example, the appearance of high-dimensional universe beasts was very sudden.

For example, Thrive Dangerous Land was actually very strange.

It had been refined before, and after the refiner died, the vigorous life force dissipated. Yet strangely, after a few eras, the vigorous life force in Thrive Dangerous Land began to recover and grow day by day. It was incredible.

Until now, there was still no conclusion.

“If it’s to find treasures of life, I might be able to help.” Master Qingning spoke.

Wang Ye was surprised. “How?”

“With my talent,” Master Qingning said.

“Life Decay?” Wang Ye was slightly startled. “Doesn’t it reduce vitality? Are you sure it can be used?”

Master Qingning nodded. “The greater the amount of life force, the more suitable it is to use Life Decay. I will have an almost instinctive sense of judgment.”

“Lead the way!” Wang Ye didn’t hesitate.

“Can we deviate from the core of the dangerous land?” Master Qingning said.

“Of course. That’s for brainless commanders,” Wang Ye said. “It’s definitely not the real mission target. Treasure hunting is the key.”

…

Battle teams entered one after another.

Those who entered later would undoubtedly suffer some losses.

Apart from the wasted time, they were also slower than others in every aspect.

Currently, there were no fierce beasts in the area near the teleportation array.

As for the Sky merit rankings, the competition was getting increasingly intense.

Many battle teams caught up and entered the top ten.

In contrast, the few teams that were at the top of the rankings at the beginning gradually fell.

“What’s the use of entering earlier? Strength is the key!” Hazel had broken the rankings and was already in the top three.

His goal was to get first place in every round!

Although he did not have a good family background like Sajee, his talent and combat prowess were stronger.

In the assessment, he had been ranked first. He would also take first place in both missions.

He, Hazel, was an elite genius destined to become a legion commander!

“Kill them!” Hazel’s aura flourished as he killed a medium-grade fierce beast.

His goal was to get to the core of the dangerous land, which contained the greatest amount of innate energy and gave birth to the most fierce beasts.

He would get first place!

…

“There.” Master Qingning’s eyes lit up.

Her figure shot out like an arrow.

Wang Ye immediately followed.

A pale yellow crystal appeared. It was the color of rock candy and was filled with surging life force and lightning.

“The Life Lightning Mother.” As a high-dimensional mining master, Wang Ye naturally recognized this strange ore.

It was worth a lot.

Not only could it be used as a treasure of life, but it was also an energy-type treasure.

This was especially true for cultivators who cultivated the lightning lineage. It could become the core of their internal world!

Wang Ye easily dug it up and threw it into the legion badge space.

In an instant-

Pa! The Life Lightning Mother disappeared.

It was replaced by an increase of 300 Sky merits.

“[5]: Team No.6: 380 Sky merits.” Wang Ye looked at the rankings.

In one wave, he directly entered the top five!

“This Life Lightning Mother has appeared in the Nether Dream Temple,” Master Qingning said.

“Oh?” Wang Ye went in to take a look.

As expected, it was freshly on sale!

It was exactly the same as the one he had just put into the legion space.

However, the price was 600 Sky merits.

Profiteer!

“How wondrous,” Master Qingning said.

Wang Ye understood what his senior sister meant.

The virtual spirit world was like a mother that was connected to all its children.

The same had been true for the phylactery space, and now, the legion badge space.

Items in it could be transmitted straight to the virtual spirit world. At the same time, the virtual spirit world could also transmit treasures over.

It was like a shared space. It was very cost-effective.

“300 Sky merits is equivalent to killing 10 medium-grade fierce beasts here.” An Lingwu sighed.

Wang Ye nodded. “The number of fierce beasts in the dangerous land is limited. As more battle teams enter, the competition will become more intense. The top battle teams can still obtain Sky merits by hunting high-grade fierce beasts, but it will become more and more difficult for the average teams.”

Master Qingning said, “That’s right. Moreover, killing High Dimension Lords will cause irreversible losses. The further you go, the weaker your combat prowess will actually be.”

Wang Ye said. “We’re on the right path. Let’s continue.”

“Okay!”

…

“Ye Wang is in fifth place now.” Scarlet pursed her lips.

She had been surpassed, and her original fifth place became sixth.

Most of the battle teams looked down on this two-winged mixed-blood, thinking that he was just so-so.

But she had never looked down on him. Rather, she even thought of him as a strong competitor.

Tianjia King acknowledged him, and so did Sharuth. How could he be mediocre?

Not to mention that he had climbed all the way from a powerless two-winged to a third-grade Sky race member in a short time…

It was very difficult!

If she were in his shoes, she wouldn’t have been able to pull it off.

Yet, Ye Wang did it.

“Change of plans.” Scarlet ordered.

Now that almost all the battle teams had entered Thrive Dangerous Land, the profit of killing fierce beasts had gradually decreased.

Dessert time was over. There was no need to tire themselves out.

“Next target, treasures of life.”

…

A year passed quickly.

All the battle teams rushed into Thrive Dangerous Land.

Unfortunately, a slow start made them lag.

Not only did the battle teams that entered later have less information, but they could not even find a single fierce beast, leaving them in a state of confusion.

They were basically on the verge of elimination even if there was still a lot of time.

“There is no countdown.” Wang Ye was slightly taken aback.

He had thought that after all the battle teams had entered, Sharuth would start the mission countdown, but it did not happen.

Just like the previous mission information, it was all empty.

What was the meaning of this?

Could the mission end at any time?

Or what kind of conditions must be met for the first mission to end?

Following Master Qingning, who was leading the way, Wang Ye’s thoughts were running wild.

Suddenly, Xiao Gang’s hissing voice came from behind him. The spikes on his head stood up high, and his eyes revealed a fierce light.

Wang Ye took a look.

It seemed that there was a new prey ahead.

A fierce beast?

A high-dimensional universe beast?

Or…

“I’ve made a big discovery,” Master Qingning suddenly said.
