Polar Night Domain, Progenitor's Manuscript
"Hmm? The break time has been extended this time?"
Xu Lang's spirits lifted.
For him, sleeping one more day is more important than anything else!
How to increase rest time has always been a question he's been pondering. He's asked Rainy Night Swordsman and the others before, but hasn't received a definite answer. It seems only the King of Hearts that Nie Xiaozhu used had managed to do this.
"Hey, the game time has increased. According to this calculation, the next game will start at midnight." Cao Yaxuan also noticed this and said with great interest.
Who wouldn't want more rest time?
As long as it's not in the morning... Xu Lang muttered to himself.
"Xu Lang, come here quickly!" Wang Yazhi suddenly said.
She stood behind the gun emplacement, a hint of joy in her expression.
"What's wrong?" Xu Lang walked over.
Wang Yazhi replied, "The turret now has three modes: manual, fully automatic, and only for attacking monsters!"
Xu Lang laughed and said, "It seems there really has been a lot of optimization."
"That's great!" Cao Yaxuan cheered, raising her hand.
Previously, when Wu Huihui and her friends passed by Dormitory 200, she would have to turn off the automatic attack mode, which was very annoying.
The problem has now been solved.
"Lang Ge, Lang Ge, there are also tenant rights. Now you can give us the authority to open or close the doors at any time," Tong Qi said happily.
"How did you know?" Xu Lang asked with a strange look.
"Didn't you see the chat? Everyone's talking about this," Tong Qi replied.
Xu Lang nodded, opened the Chat Room, and saw that everyone was exploring the optimized new features.
Landlords' rights have also increased; they can now view more information about tenants, including their free attribute points and funds.
It's pretty good.
Xu Lang was secretly pleased and said, "I don't know what's going on with the resource supply optimization. I heard from those veteran players that treasure chests and monsters will spawn in high-level Dormitory Building."
It's said that the monsters that appear from treasure chests are very weak, but killing them will still yield items.
"Yes, and I think the Mad King Dormitory Building will be even more special," Wang Yazhi said with a smile.
She also discovered the peculiarities of the Mad King Dormitory Building.
After all, they had Radio, and their information channels were far superior to those of other players.
Xu Lang nodded, just as he was about to offer his opinion, when the Dormitory Broadcast came on.
Rewards are now being distributed!
Xu Lang came in first and received the following rewards: Dormitory Upgrade Attempt x1, Facilities x1, Progenitor's Manuscript x1, Polar Night Domain Skill Scroll x1, Free Attributes x15, Backpack Level Up by 1.
Li Shuwen ranked second, and his rewards were: Dormitory Upgrade Attempt x1, Frost Spear x1, Free Attributes x14, and Backpack Upgrade by 1 level.
Zheng Kai ranked third, and his rewards were: Dormitory Upgrade Attempt x1, Blood Armor x1, Free Attributes x13, and Backpack Level Up by 1.
After the top three, rewards like Copper Coin started appearing, but Xu Lang didn't think they were valuable at all and didn't even bother with them.
However, the other players were green with envy and jealousy over these rewards, slapping their thighs in frustration.
As for why he wasn't envious of Xu Lang, it's simply because the difference in their abilities was too great; he couldn't even muster any envy!
[49 Li Shuwen: What a pity, the Share Honor and Disgrace didn't work this round (Frost Spear)]
[33 Ye Fan: Holy crap, Uncle Wen, a level 6 item!!!]
[98 Wang Han: Holy crap, this weapon has three effects!]
[159 Zheng Kai: It feels a bit stronger than my Blood Armor (Blood Armor)]
[33 Ye Fan: Level 6 too? That's insane!]
[82 Lu Chuan: No, was the last game that difficult? The rewards were so high!]
[159 Zheng Kai: Try it without our help. You couldn't even withstand the Frost Ghost army, let alone with the Frost Ghost King intervening.]
[181 Li Yu: Thanks to Lang Ge]
[186 Wu Huihui: I feel that the reward distribution this time is much more humane, which can keep players enthusiastic about killing monsters]
The rewards for this Score Leaderboard are no longer tiered. Unlike before, when all players outside the top ten received the same rewards, now the rewards decrease with each player's ranking.
Of course, it's not all benefits. For example, players ranked lower will no longer have their inventory level increased, and their free attribute points will also decrease!
You should know that in the last round of the game, all players were guaranteed at least 5 points of free attributes, but in this round, the player who came in last only got 3 points of free attributes!
"Sigh, it's getting harder and harder to just lie flat... and then there's the Last-Place Elimination System." Xu Lang sighed.
It's not enough to just survive in the game; you also have to outrun other players.
It's really difficult.
Cao Yaxuan speechless for a moment, but then she changed the subject in her mind and sighed, mimicking Xu Lang, "Yes, it's too difficult!"
Wang Yazhi: "..."
Is this a case of "one is influenced by one's company"? Cao Yaxuan is becoming more and more like Xu Lang.
"Me! Me! Me!" Shirley raised her hand, her beautifully defined face slightly flushed, seemingly excited.
Everyone looked at her. After spending so much time together, everyone knew that she was about to unleash something big.
After a moment's hesitation, Shirley blurted out in one breath, "It's true that overpowered heroes with exceptional skills like to play the victim!"
Tong Qi chuckled, "Teacher Shirley, do you still play video games?"
"Beat!"
"So what do you usually play?" Tong Qi asked with curiosity.
"That's right, we're all 'Technique Guys'!" Cao Yaxuan interjected, giving a thumbs up.
Seeing that the women seemed ready to continue chatting, Xu Lang quickly stopped them. "Stop, stop, let's digest the resources first!"
Upon hearing this, the girls' cheerful atmosphere immediately subsided, and they turned to pull out their rewards with sparkling eyes.
However, Xu Lang was taken aback when he saw what they had taken out, raising an eyebrow and saying, "Hmm? You only have skill scrolls?"

[Type: Active Skill]
[Level: 6]
[Effect: Consumes mental energy to release a Polar Night Domain with a diameter of three meters, visible to the user]
[Upgrade Requirements: 1000 Nightmare Coins]
[Introduction: Long live the Polar Night!]
As a level six domain skill, the Polar Night Domain is very effective. In close combat, the Chaotic Cloak Blade Technique can kill people. It is even stronger in a dark environment.
Xu Lang didn't have a problem with that; what surprised him was that none of the four women had Progenitor's Manuscript.
[Progenitor's Manuscript]
[Type: Books]
[Level: 8]
[Effect: Continuously generates knowledge]
[Upgrade Requirements: 3500 Nightmare Coins]
[Description: A casual work by a certain great being]
"Don't you have this?" Xu Lang took out the Progenitor's Manuscript.
This is a palm-sized, brownish-yellow parchment book, which looks somewhat old and exquisite.
"No." Tong Qi shook her head.
"This book must be extraordinary; it belongs to the category of special rewards," Cao Yaxuan said with a wise and confident look in her eyes.
Xu Lang thought the same thing and immediately opened the parchment book with great anticipation.
When the book cover was opened, a sandalwood scent wafted out, somewhat intoxicating.
After fiddling with it for a while, Xu Lang's face darkened, and he closed the Progenitor's Manuscript.
This book is full of scribbles that look like gibberish, which means... it's incomprehensible!
"Isn't it supposed to be that the language and text in games are all the same? Is the Mad King Dormitory Building targeting me?" Xu Lang said indignantly.
"Why don't you try bleeding yourself!" Cao Yaxuan suggested.
Xu Lang hesitated for a moment, then took out a dagger and struck the palm of Xu Lang's hand.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, blood dripped onto the Progenitor's Manuscript.
And then... and that was it!
"It's no use." Xu Lang said expressionlessly, offering his hand to Shirley for healing, while Cao Yaxuan with a faint, indifferent look.
You're still the main tank tonight!
"Hehe!" Cao Yaxuan her head and chuckled awkwardly, trying to ease the tension.
"Forget it, let's process the other resources first." Xu Lang put away the True Ancestor Manual and took out two items instead.
It's a loot dropped by the boss Julian!
