When the sensation of teleportation dissipated, Su Luo opened her eyes.
What came into view was an environment so monotonous it was appalling.
The flat, rocky terrain stretches to the horizon, with rough sand beneath your feet.
A jarringly pixelated Sun hangs in the sky, radiating a halo that lacks realism.
The Mana in the environment was quite abundant, making the small Mana Wardrobe Change that Su Luo had added to the Mana Pool seem somewhat redundant.
He looked around; nine Sanctuary scattered nearby, forming a temporary stronghold for the participants in Zone 76.
Looking to the left, about twenty kilometers away, there was a building. After examining it closely, Su Luo realized it was probably Sanctuary.
There is another one about 20 kilometers to the right.
Su Luo took off slightly. About a hundred kilometers ahead, there were two Sanctuary, and Sanctuary were scattered in other directions as well.
After glancing at it briefly, I landed, somewhat speechless.
No, this battlefield is way too rough!
A circle with a radius of 100 kilometers, almost completely flat, with the ground consisting of ordinary rocks and sand, was used as the center point. The entire battlefield was simply and crudely divided into ten equal areas, with each group placed at the center of their respective area.
So they stared at each other, easily spotting one another.
Su Luo retrieved the core components of the Mana Pool from the System Space, preparing to set up a temporary Laboratory.
At this moment, Song Shige finished tidying up the Sanctuary, opened the door, and walked towards Su Luo.
"Consultant Su, here's your pocket watch." He handed back the exquisite [Anchored Pocket Watch].
Su Luo took the shelter and put it away, sharing her observations as she did so. "There are a total of twenty-five Sanctuary on the field, including in our district."
Song Shige nodded, his expression somewhat strange. "Professionals make up nearly 40% of our district."
Su Luo continued, "There's only one person in five districts, two people in two districts, three people in one district, and four people in one district."
"So little."
Jing Yunxin emerged from her pure white Sanctuary, overheard the conversation, and said softly, "It's not that they have fewer people, it's that we have too many."
Seeing everyone come out one after another, Su Luo spoke first:
"While we have time to prepare, everyone introduces their profession. Su Luo, Scholar."
"Song Shige, Demon King."
"Jing Yunxin, Holy Healing Apostle."
"Xi Ji, the Aura Knight."
"Guizishi, Calculist."
"Duan Xinpan, the Spear of Causality."
Upon hearing this, Guizishi stared Duan Xinpan.
Why does your profession sound so prestigious?
Guizishi asked bluntly.
"Huh?! It's just a high-level profession. It's probably because of my Talent. My Talent is accuracy, which has a high degree of compulsion."
Duan Xinpan, carrying a longbow on her back, stood Xi Ji and explained.
Song Shige coughed lightly, steer the conversation back on track. "Continue."
"Yin Haoguang, the Life Alchemist."
"Shi Yong, the Super Blade-Deflection Freak."
"Shi Yong, I always find your profession name hilarious. Jun Lebao, the Unyielding."
The unique job title made a young man burst out laughing.
"Shut up, you milk powder!" Shi Yong retorted irritably.
After a brief introduction of their professions and Talents, everyone turned their attention to a dilapidated Xiao Shi.
The soundproofing is poor, and everyone can still hear snoring.
"I think this guy's name is Gao Fu?" Guizishi, somewhat uncertainly.
Su Luo nodded.
Before the District War began, Song Shige had already given Su Luo a general overview of the Mutual Aid Association's Talents and professions. The current introduction mainly focuses on understanding the situation of Gao Fu and Guizishi.
But Gao Fu was still asleep...
The Mutual Aid Association had previously analyzed Gao Fu's Talent, based on the fact that he had almost no trading records in the first seven days, spoke in the Regional Channel, rushed to the top of the rankings in a short period of time, and slept on the spot during the live stream after the Monster Tide ended...
It must be some kind of Talent for development during sleep.
Xi Ji stepped forward and gently knocked on the rickety stone door. Unexpectedly, the door collapsed with a crash as soon as he knocked, raising a cloud of dust.
Inside the room, on a luxurious bed that was completely out of place with its dilapidated appearance, Gao Fu, half-naked, suddenly sat up, staring blankly at Xi Ji who burst into the Xi Ji.
Who are you?
"Get up, child." Xi Ji looked at the clutter on the floor and the bare walls of the room, unsure of how to react.
Su Luo took out the [Selection Material Voucher] she carried with her, selected a large amount of basic materials, and smelted them on the spot into a sturdy steel frame structure to begin building a temporary Laboratory.
Gao Fu, still half-asleep, dressed and followed Xi Ji out.
"How did you get through the Trial Instance?" Xi Ji Ignite a cigarette and couldn't help but ask.
"I slept for thirty days. In the middle of the sleep, someone woke me up and said they would take me to save the world, blah blah blah. I fell asleep halfway through the conversation."
Upon seeing Su Luo building Laboratory, Gao Fu rushed over as if he had spotted an excavator on the street.
"When I finally woke up, I was surrounded by ridiculously ugly monsters, but I was too Constitution and had too many skills, so they couldn't bite me."
"And then it ended."
After Gao Fu finished speaking, he noticed that everyone around him had turned to look at him.
"What's wrong?"
Xi Ji, Song Shige, and the others remained silent, thinking of their fallen comrades and subordinates.
"So it's possible to sleep without elbows touching your skin?"
Guizishi's expression was strange. He recalled how his Talent had allowed him to escape while fighting the Beast Tide, finding a spaceship to take them into the sky and escaping the last few days of the Dungeon.
"Gao Fu, King of Dreams."
Gao Fu formally introduced himself, while simultaneously sizing up Su Luo and Song Shige.
How did those two develop so quickly? Even with top-tier development Talent, I didn't grow this fast.
What are your highest possible Attributes?
What kind of Talent do these two have? How come they were so dominant throughout the entire game?
"It can last until a little after 7 p. m.," Song Shige replied succinctly.
"I can do it someday too." Gao Fu's face twitched, comforting himself that he was a late-game hero. He then went back to his room to sleep, instructing Xi Ji was smoking beside him, to wake him up when the battle started.
Song Shige looked at Gao Fu's slumped back on the bed, then turned to Su Luo:
"This person seems a bit strange. Like kids comparing themselves to each other."
"You haven't adapted to the Land of Darkness yet, have you? You're improving every day thanks to your Talent, and haven't had much contact with the outside world."
Su Luo didn't seem to care much, focusing instead on building the Laboratory.
