Level 7
On the twenty-eighth day, a living father arrived in a certain [Dangerous Terrain] area of Zone 76.
Where the light shines, explosions and Burn follow.
The Laboratory is suspended above the edge of the [Dangerous Terrain], surrounded by thousands of moving illuminated fireballs.
Here, the night sky, filled with Kongming lanterns during the Lantern Festival, is even more profoundly dark.
A level 6 Elite, resembling a giant bull and covered in jagged bone spikes, exerted force with its limbs, blasting a large crater in the ground and soaring into the sky with a foul stench. Its scarlet eyes Lock-On onto the approaching massive metal construct, its pale bone spikes poised to fire like a siege crossbow.
As the first monster to dare to face Su Luo directly, Su Luo treated it to a good meal.
A "net" descended from the sky.
A net woven from hundreds of finely condensed, dazzlingly bright white lines of fire.
There was no deafening explosion, only a condensed, dazzlingly bright white line silently sweeping across the scene.
The monster was still in mid-air when its massive body was instantly sliced into more than a dozen neat, charred chunks of meat, like butter being cut by a hot knife.
The incision was as smooth as a mirror; the high temperature carbonized the tissue and blood, successfully eliminating the need for bleeding. The taste was excellent, leaving the next monster to taste it full of praise.
The wreckage, emitting wisps of smoke, fell helplessly back into the darkness.
[You've leveled up!]
Level 7.
That's tough; the experience bar for professionals is ridiculously long.
With the upgrade, a familiar and powerful warm current surged into the spiritual world, as if the soul was being cleansed and broadened, perception became more acute, and Mana leaped.
Su Luo closed her eyes, carefully experiencing the long-awaited increase in her Attributes.
It seems like it was rising just half a day ago...
But it's been a long time since I've had this opportunity.
[Spirit: 18.5 (↑0.5) (Hidden: 0.3)]
His [Scholar] profession provides a fixed 0.8 Spirit growth per level, but the panel is only showing an increase of 0.5 at this moment.
The remaining 0.3 points of mental Attribute seemed to be bound by an invisible shackle, appearing as a grayed-out state.
Su Luo immediately understood the reason.
This is System Layer limitation; a relatively weak body cannot support an overly powerful soul.
If he relies on his own cultivation of the [Three-Cycle Method], he might be able to slowly break through the 18.5 barrier, but the "upgrade growth Attributes " given by the system must follow this set of balance rules.
The 0.3 points of mental Attribute did not disappear; they were merely temporarily "stored" and will be fully unlocked once his Constitution improves to the corresponding level.
Su Luo mustered her troops and carefully assessed her own strength.
[Flame Domain (Blue) Level 12 (8563/12000)]
[Falling Star Burst (Blue) Level 11 (2558/11000)]
[Celestial Phenomenon Attraction (Blue) Level 13 (12466/13000)]
In addition, there are a large number of green Spells that have been mastered and improved, which form the basis of Su Luo's diverse spellcasting.
Anyway, Su Luo hasn't been seriously studying Spell lately; she's been focusing most of her energy on improving her Attributes.
Because numerical monsters are really appealing.
[Spell Permanence Technique (Fragment) (Blue) Level 27 (13756/27000)]
[Flesh Modification (Blue) Level 21 (4349/21000)]
Craftsmanship must also be impeccable.
Of course, Su Luo was well aware that his strength consisted of an indispensable component in addition to his own Attributes and skills.
The Laboratory's fire control platform.
With Su Luo running the Laboratory, she could easily kill a level 7 Elite monster.
However, the sheer size of this mobile Barricade, which was built with a large amount of materials, clearly exceeded the limits of the system's normal teleportation capabilities, as the experience in the Trial Instance has confirmed.
Such a large item wouldn't be teleported by the system; there's no teleportation within the Dungeon. They only brought back some of Su Luo's personal belongings.
But it's okay, Su Luo was prepared.
Although the professional's system Storage Space is small, starting at just over one cubic meter, it cannot pause time or carry other Survivors.
It can hold living beings, but without a means of sustaining life, they will die soon after entering; Essence, it is a small, static space.
According to information revealed by the World Channel, the professional level is between level 6 and level 8, and the Storage Space capacity will double with each level increase.
Su Luo came to upgrade in order to expand the System Space.
As for level 9 and above, there is currently no definite information, not even the high-profile Ye Fan has mentioned it.
Su Luo estimated that she had about two and a half cubic meters of Storage Space and began to carefully stuff things into it.
He first carefully placed the newly completed, most intricately structured core of the small Mana Pool into the space, and then filled it with various prepared key components until the space was completely full.
Control the Laboratory to burrow underground to avoid being attacked by monsters.
He then used the wind to attach the remaining, less important components to his body.
After making thorough preparations, he sat quietly in the core of the Laboratory, waiting for the call to arms to begin the District War.
[Group 1: Su Luo, Song Shige, Xi Ji, Jing Yunxin, Gao Fu, Guizishi Duan Xinpan, Shi Yong, Yin Haoguang, Jun Lebao]
[The District War is about to begin. Survivor to return to their Sanctuary and wait.]
[Those who have not entered the Sanctuary will only be teleported to the Survivor themselves.]
[Teleportation countdown: 00:10:00]
[Number of regions registered this time: 1324]
[Assigning battlefields]
[Your group's battleground ID is: 91]
Su Luo breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Fortunately, we don't have to teleport to the Sanctuary. The level 0 Sanctuary in Su Luo's hometown would probably be destroyed as soon as it entered the field.
Ye Xu, who possesses the [Thousandfold Increase] Talent, was not on the list. Since returning from the Trial Instance, he had vanished without a trace, not sending any messages in the Regional Channel.
I don't know what he's doing; he might have been knocked unconscious by the Trial Instance.
Su Luo's gaze lingered for a moment on the number of registration areas.
There are now over a thousand areas where you can hunt level 6 Elite monsters.
Very good.
He casually opened the World Channel and found a statistic:
[It is recommended that each professional post at least one message to facilitate statistics; as of the 27th, 4987 professionals have posted.]
This person posts a similar message every day, counting how many professionals have appeared on the World Channel.
By the end of the second week, there were only a few dozen people.
The third week ended with fewer than 800 people.
Now, as the fourth week draws to a close, that number has reached five thousand.
It is foreseeable that, under the constant survival pressure exerted by the system, the number of professionals will exceed 50,000 by the end of the fifth week.
These are all people who have spoken on the World Channel; there are also some who remain silent.
Seeing the world thriving and prospering, Su Luo felt a little gratified.
[Transferring...]
The moment the countdown reached zero, a familiar feeling enveloped him. The Laboratory remained buried deep underground, while he, along with the components he carried, transformed into a streak of light and was thrown into the unknown Battlefield 91.
