Doomed to Destruction
The light and shadow before him solidified, Su Luo found himself standing on the familiar, hard ground of the Land of Darkness. The scent of decaying earth in the air gave him a sense of familiarity.
In the distance, a seemingly elite five-person squad, who had been sitting, all stood up the moment they saw Su Luo.
The leader was a middle-aged man.
"Appraisal!"
[People]
[Level: 5]
[Strength: 13.4]
[Spirit: 11.9]
[Constitution: 14.1]
--
[Mana: 18]
[Skills: Raise Shield, Petrification, Basic Body-Strengthening Technique...]
The other members were similar, each excelling in a particular Attribute and possessing corresponding skills, clearly forming a well-rounded five-person team.
One of the middle-aged men looked at Su Luo for a while, waved, and walked towards him.
"Consultant Su!"
What are you doing here?
"You're trying to get the [Class Change Certificate]."
"Brush?"
While distracted by organizing the gains from the Class Change Dungeon in her mind, Su Luo casually asked a question.
His thirty-day experience in another world left him feeling as if he had been transported to another era.
"Yes..."
The middle-aged man began to explain.
Assuming the number of monsters in a single-player challenge Dungeon is 100, then the number of monsters in a two-player challenge Dungeon is 140, and the maximum number of monsters in Dungeon is 200 for a maximum of five players.
The monsters' strength remains the same; what changes are their numbers and combinations. As long as the five-person team has a reasonable combination of Attributes and skills and works well together, the difficulty is much lower than soloing the Dungeon.
After clearing Dungeon, a [Class Change Certificate] will be randomly awarded to one member. However, please note that clearing Dungeon does not guarantee a [Class Change Certificate] drop rate.
The five of them were one of the top-tier teams trained by the Mutual Aid Association. They had just finished farming their second [Class Change Certificate] and were waiting outside the Dungeon for teleportation.
Su Luo nodded, her gaze sweeping over the various signs of battle on their bodies, and she understood.
This cooperative model is clearly the choice of most Survivors who hope to Class Change.
"That's all. Minister Qin will contact you later."
The middle-aged man wisely didn't bother them further, exchanging a few pleasantries before returning to his team. Su Luo, on the other hand, completely calmed down and began to take stock of her gains from this "Rise of Superpowers" Dungeon.
[Su Luo: Alive]
[Age: 22]
[Level: 6 (0%)]
[Strength: 11.2]
[Spirit: 13.7 (↑1)]
[Constitution: 12.4]
[Mana: 28 (↑1)]
[Free Attribute Points: 6]
[Survival Coins: 72000]
[Talent: Learning Gains:]
Benefit 1: Guaranteed minimum return during the learning process
Effect 2: Your concentration during study is significantly improved.
Effect 3: Your research speed is significantly increased.
[Skills: Omitted]
The 1 point increase in Divine Power comes from the Attribute Growth, 0.8 from Su Luo's improved Dual-Cycle Method training, and the last 0.1 is the breakthrough under extreme pressure during the Life and Death duel with Dongli Cang.
The increase in Mana comes from the Dual-Cycle Method.
A new section has been added at the top of the personal panel – [Career Panel].
[Scholar]
The information will not be elaborated further.
There was also a line of flashing information.
Unlock [Storage Space]?
"Yes."
[You have unlocked: Storage Space]
I took a look; the space was a little over one cubic meter, I don't know where that unit of measurement came from, and the shape of the space seemed random.
Next, Su Luo brought three specially made sealed metal boxes containing dangerous and precious samples of Aberrant Elements, which will be key to Future research.
The next item is the Martial Dao system and modern knowledge system left behind in the Extraordinary Era before the Class Change Dungeon.
Of the modern knowledge system, Su Luo managed to save only a small portion of what he needed in the chat history using screenshots, while the majority remained unsaved.
However, I brought back all the USB drives containing this knowledge. Although I don't have the means to read the information now, I'm sure I'll have the opportunity later.
And during the precious thirty days of development time in the Dungeon, Su Luo learned various kinds of knowledge.
[Spell Permanence Technique (Fragment) (Blue) Level 21 (20065/21000)]
[Flesh Modification (Blue) Level 11 (8543/11000)]
And a whole bunch of Spell Su Luo learned while researching elements and Spells and consulting reference materials...
There is also a large amount of Aberration Energy information from the World Will Trade, detailed down to the body structure and principles of SSS Rank Mutated Beasts.
Su Luo pondered that if she learned more about Flesh Modification and reached a higher level, she might be able to create cannon fodder.
Just then, a cold system notification abruptly interrupted his thoughts:
[Today's Trait Dungeon is now open. You have met the entry requirements. Would you like to enter?]
"Trait Dungeon?" Su Luo muttered to herself about this new thing, opened the World Channel, and began searching for information.
After browsing the World Channel, Su Luo found a large number of historical posts. He roughly estimated that at least a hundred professionals had posted yesterday.
Search keywords.
[Ye Fan: I'll accept this first Trait Dungeon without hesitation.]
[Sam Sonic: Is this Ye Fan even human? I almost died!]
[Ye Zizhen: Attention all top-tier professionals! It's best to coordinate your participation in the Trait Dungeon in the World Channel chat every day. Those with high ratings should avoid teaming up to reduce internal friction. Without special abilities, you can't break through to the 20-point limit.]
[Ye Fan: Xiao Zhen, should we discuss the Supreme rating beforehand?]
[Kathy Beth: I give up, the Trait Dungeon got ganked.]
[...]
Half a month after the second Monster Tide in the Land of Darkness ended, the Survival System opened a new activity for professions: [Trait Dungeon].
When a Survivor's highest Attribute reaches 20 points, they must possess a "trait" to break through the limit.
Currently, the only way to obtain "traits" is to participate in the daily [Trait Dungeon] and compete with the world's top professionals.
So far, there have been three [Trait Dungeons ]. Ye Fan from the World Channel won the first one, and the results for the remaining two days are unknown.
This is the fourth time.
Su Luo naturally wouldn't enter. The next period would be a time of rapid growth in his strength, and he would digest the gains from the Trial Instance first.
The Personal Channel is popping up.
[Qin Lang: Mr. Su, you're back.]
[Su Luo: Yes]
[Qin Lang: Okay. This is a summary of important intelligence recently compiled by the Mutual Aid Association. Please take a look. Comrade Song Shige will contact you later.]
Then, a long string of messages was sent over.
Su Luo checked them one by one.
First, there's information about the Class Change Dungeon.
Based on information from the World Channel, it can be inferred that:
Shared by region: Survivors in the same region share the same Trial Instance!
The difficulty level is dynamic!
Su Luo's initial assumption was wrong.
The invisible hand of the Survival System provides attentive service, yet its attitude is poor.
Trial Instance ratings are divided into: Normal, Good, Excellent, Supreme.
The more difficult the Dungeon, the higher its rating.
Given how difficult things are, the fact that you survived is amazing and deserves high praise.
Su Luo wondered why people kept coming to bother him out of nowhere.
Based on the information gathered so far, all the Trial Instances are set in a Doomsday world on the verge of extinction, and the main quest for everyone is to survive for 30 days.
No matter what you choose—to remain aloof, to destroy the world, or to take up the mantle of saving it—the world's ultimate fate is destruction.
Most professionals are reluctant to mention their Trial Instance in the World Channel, because it represents the death of countless beings in the world.
Apart from... one person, currently the only person in the world to have received Supreme praise on the surface.
Ye Fan.
He saved a world in despair.
One of his Titles is -- [The True Savior]
