Chapter 165: Entering The Resource Challenge
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
[This challenge will use the new special location “Nightless City”. After this challenge ends, “Nightless City” will be open to all players as a permanent map.]
[The players in this region only need to protect the crystal in the center of the city from the onslaught of monster attacks to successfully complete the challenge.]
[All players in District 66, please get ready!]
[Countdown: 4 minutes 59 seconds]
“Nightless… City?”
There wasn’t anything else that was worth paying attention to, but this newly added map, “Nightless City”.
It made Ling Yi a little confused.
He had never heard of a “permanent map” before. Even when he searched on the forum, he could not find any relevant information.
Obviously, the Nightless City would be the first permanent map!
Ling Yi didn’t think too much about it. After he left the spring and rested for a while, he went downstairs at a steady pace.
Lin Shurou and Xia Wanqing were both District 66 players. Seeing him come down, the former quickly stood up and said,”You don’t have to worry about us when you go in. You can go on your own.”
She was afraid that Ling Yi’s identity would be exposed because of their relationship.
“Right!” Xia Wanqing nodded in agreement.
“Okay,” He said.
Ling Yi nodded. The two of them weren’t strong enough yet, so it would be best for him to act alone.
“You’re all going in… Then I’ll go back first.” Yunji sighed to herself. She couldn’t wait for Ling Yi to defeat the intermediate map Beast King so that their server level could rise to the advanced level. When that happens, she could transfer to their District.
There were only 10 million zone transfer cards in the Event Store, and they had all been snatched up by the players.
Some people bought dozens of them at once to sell them to others at a high price or use them as a resource for their forces in the future. Yunji also bought five of them in order to give a way out for herself in the future.
“Alright,” he said. The three of them said goodbye to Yunji.
The five minutes of preparation time quickly passed, and the three of them were teleported to the new map “Nightless City” on God’s Path.
…
The Nightless City was more of a fortress than a city.
It had a total of three huge ring-shaped city walls. The inner circle had a radius of 10 kilometers, the middle circle had a radius of 20 kilometers, and the outer circle had a radius of 30 kilometers.
It covered a total of 2,826 square kilometers, which was 2.8 billion square meters.
Even after deducting the area occupied by the city wall and the surrounding houses, the 10 million people could occupy at least 200 square meters of land.
Even if ten million people came in, there would still be space for them to freely move around and even fight.
At this moment,
Sensing the entire Nightless City, Ling Yi couldn’t help but sigh at its magnificence. ‘It’s only a little smaller than Qianjiang City.’
[Prompt: You have entered a time challenge event. In this event, the player/monster’s speed is capped at 100 meters per second.]
“… There’s a speed limit.”
In all the ways of “city defense” on the God’s Path, there was a speed limit.
The purpose was to allow the monsters to travel for a long time and give the players enough time to defend.
In the past, the resource challenges were also limit the challenger’s speed. Therefore, Ling Yi and the surrounding players didn’t find it strange.
The players were looking around curiously and exclaiming in surprise.
“Is this the Nightless City? It looks so empty.”
“That giant blue crystal over there is the object we need to protect. Are we just going to leave it exposed to the air? ”
“Waa! There are too many people!”
“What are you guys talking about? I can’t hear you clearly!”
With ten million people gathered together, the surroundings were extremely noisy and chaotic. If one did not listen carefully, one would not even be able to hear the words of others a few meters away.
“Eh? Could this person be the rumored 01 boss? His body and face are all blurry.”
“I’m not sure. I’m a new player in this area…”
Before entering, Ling Yi had already activated the effects of his “Faceless Mask “, so everyone else’s view of him was completely blurry.
He ignored the gazes of the others. At this moment, the details of the resource challenge had already appeared in front of him and the others.
[Assessment Level: Intermediate]
[Number of Challengers: 10 million]
[Challenge Content: In the next hour, a million monsters will appear around Nightless City every minute. Monster initial Level 1, level automatically +1 per minute]
[10 leader-level monsters will appear every minute, same level as normal monsters]
[Monsters and leader monsters will advance with the crystal as their goal]
[Challenge Reward:]
[Lasts for 10 minutes: The wilderness area will be expanded by 100 times, and 100 new teleportation gates will be added to suitable locations for free.]
[Lasts for 30 minutes:…. Expand by 500 times… 500 new teleportation gates]
[Lasts for 60 minutes:… Expand by 1,000 times…1,000 new teleportation gates]
[In addition, the top 100 players who kill the most monsters will receive a generous reward!]
[Prompt: In five minutes, the monsters will officially launch their attack. Please prepare your defense quickly!]
[Prompt: Click here to view other details]
Ling Yi slowly read through it line by line and quickly understood the entire process of the challenge.
In simple terms, the monsters would automatically level up by one level every minute, and the rewards would be divided according to the duration of the players’ persistence.
The best reward was to expand the wilderness by a thousand times.
For example, if there was one monster per square meter, then ten monsters would appear at once. It was still 1 per square meter, but now that the area had become 10,000 square meters, 10,000 monsters would appear at once.
It was the same for other resources such as treasure chests.
“The reward has indeed become better…”
Looking at the slot rewards, Ling Yi couldn’t help but frown. ‘But it doesn’t affect the main roads at all.’
He had hoped that there would be more monsters on the main road, so he could get more Night Stones.
Now it seemed that God’s Path wouldn’t give him that opportunity.
“We’re finished! Even though our server is only at the intermediate level, many of us have not even reached level 10 yet!”
“There’s no other way. We can only rely on the powerhouses who have just transferred to our District.”
“It’s a good thing that 01 has the meteorites with the largest destruction range in the world. With the powerhouses, holding on for half an hour shouldn’t be a problem. But an hour is still a little difficult…”
He could sense that many players had already started running towards the wall. As they ran, they were still discussing this.
Realizing that this was a challenge for intermediate maps, many people couldn’t help but feel pessimistic.
As the players ran out, Ling Yi opened the last notification and looked at the details.
[1: All players are temporarily in the same camp, unable to harm others and unable to destroy the crystal]
[2: No reward for killing monsters in the challenge]
[3: If a player dies in the challenge, they will be resurrected in the crystal in full condition after 1 minute.]
These three details perfectly answered Ling Yi’s questions.
He was still worried that he would hurt the crystal with [Starfall], but now it seemed that he could use his strength without any worries.
Very quickly,
The five minutes of preparation time passed by as the players ran at the speed limit.
The players who ran in front had already reached the outer wall and were waiting there. During the challenge period, a temporary “mini-map” would be opened for each player. The mini-map had the outline of the entire Nightless City. The green dots were players, and the red dots were enemies.
Not only could this item allow players to know where they were, but it could also allow them to quickly determine where the most number of monsters were and where they could rush to help.
