Myriad Worlds Arena, a World Transformed! (Continued)

[Update Content ④: Points Shop (All lords can exchange points earned from killing monsters in the Land of Mist for various rewards in the shop.)]

Including a large number of Soul Stone, advanced building blueprints, Crown Rank units, Legendary Rank equipment, etc.

(Note: The Points Shop will open after the first night of the Red Mist Frenzy!)

The system broadcast four update messages in succession.

As if to give the lords a moment to process, there was a brief pause.

Shen Xing really needs to process this properly.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and quickly reviewed the contents of the expansion pack.

"Battle of Two Worlds, along with leaderboards and Points Shop..."

"This update is truly a bombshell!"

Before he could continue thinking, the system announcement continued to scroll by.

[The above four points pertain to the expansion pack content; the next game content update will follow.]

[Update 5: Resource Point Refresh (All resource points near lords will be refreshed, with a greater chance of medium and large resource points appearing)]

[Update Content 6: Ally System Update (After establishing an alliance between two or more territories, movement speed is increased by 30% when traveling to each other's territories.)]

The minimap will also display the attack status of each other's territories.

[Update Content ⑦: Ranger Job Change Function Update (All Pioneer, including those who have not entered the Land of Mist but have come into contact with the power of the Misty Lands).]

After reaching level 9, you can choose to give up becoming a lord and advance to a ranger unit.

Ranger units have an additional 100% bonus to Soul Stone absorption speed, and gain even more attribute boosts with each level up.

[Update 8: Talent Rankings Update (In addition to the current world's Talent Rankings, a new 'Red Sand World' Talent Rankings has been added.)]

The above updates will be implemented at 00:00 tonight, at which time the system will be paused for one hour!

During the time stop, everything except the Pioneer will be unable to move, and you will be unable to touch anything.

Meanwhile, after the system update, you will officially experience the first night of the Blood Mist Frenzy!

Prepare yourself for even greater challenges!

At this moment, the continuous system broadcasts finally ended.

The entire Blue Star, including the other unknown Red Sand World, has fallen into a brief silence.

A moment later, Xia Wanyin's trembling voice rang in my ears.

"Shen Xing, did you... did you hear me?"

"Another expansion pack... and it looks like they're going to be competing with other worlds this time..."

After the Lotus Pond Secret Realm ended, Shen Xing mentioned in the group chat that he had encountered other world lords in the hidden level.

Therefore, she also knew that other worlds existed besides Blue Star and the Land of Mist.

"Um."

Shen Xing snapped out of his thoughts and nodded, saying, "This expansion pack was released rather suddenly."

"I originally thought that even if Blue Star, it could hold out for a few years, or even a decade or more, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly."

"According to the expansion pack, if we cannot defeat the so-called World Origin, our world will soon be swallowed by the mist."

"Ah..." Xia Wanyin's pretty face paled, and she asked worriedly, "What will happen if Blue Star is swallowed up?"

Shen Xing pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but I guess it's not a good thing."

"I've heard people say that there was a small island nation that was swallowed up by this red mist, and then the entire nation's inhabitants disappeared without a trace."

"If our Blue Star were also shrouded in the red fog, I estimate many people would die."

The girl in the white dress frowned, looking even more worried.

After a moment, Shen Xing took a deep breath and said, "Wanyin, the new version update is at midnight tonight. You should go back and prepare."

I will provide support to you as needed.

"Okay, I'll go back now." Xia Wanyin nodded solemnly.

Transported by Fried Chicken, the girl in the white dress sat atop a bird, leading her two heroes and hundreds of Light Spirit away from the Lotus Pond.

Shen Xing sat cross-legged on the White Jade Lotus Platform and said softly, "I didn't expect that the expansion pack that the system announced last time would be released now."

"And it's more important than anyone imagines; it concerns the fate of the entire world."

"We need to compete with another Red Sand World for the so-called 'World Origin,' otherwise the world barrier will crumble, and the entire Blue Star will be swallowed by the Land of Mist."

Although the consequences of the world being swallowed by the fog are unknown, it certainly won't be a good thing.

If we could obtain the so-called 'World Origin,' we could repair the world's barriers and extend the time it would take for Blue Star to be swallowed up.

This gives lords around the world more time to develop.

Making more preparations before a crisis arrives may significantly reduce casualties when the crisis occurs.

But.

There is only one World Origin, and the other Red Sand World will never be easily given up.

Therefore, this competition will be fiercer than you can imagine.

"The strength of that Red Sand World is still unknown."

"But regardless, let's analyze the content of this expansion pack first."

Shen Xing took a deep breath, then opened the prompt panel and began to analyze each point one by one.

The first one is [Blood Mist Frenzy], because the appearance of blood mist greatly increases the attack power and number of monsters.

This means that for the next period of time, there will be a constant stream of monsters attacking the territory every day.

Moreover, at night, an even larger monster horde will appear.

Furthermore, the effect and duration of the lantern were also suppressed by the blood mist to only one percent.

This means that during the expansion's duration, all lords will essentially have to stay within their territories and focus all their efforts on defending against monster attacks.

"According to the above description, this red fog will last for ten days."

"During this period, the lords could only rely on their internal resource reserves to be self-sufficient and were unable to explore the outside world."

"This severely tests a territory's logistical capabilities. Under such intense combat, large amounts of resources such as food, medicine, water, and Soul Stone are consumed daily."

"If logistics can't keep up, the territory might collapse due to resource shortages even before the monsters conquer it."

Fortunately, Shen Xing had always paid close attention to the territory's logistical capabilities and had made many preparations.

Currently, the territory has 14 acres of fertile land, and the number of Finger Worm has exceeded 50. In addition, there is a mushroom cultivation room of several thousand square meters in the basement, so there is no need to worry about food at all.

As for medication, he recently purchased five more Moon Well, and the Lotus Pond Water also has a certain restorative effect, so it should be able to sustain him for a while.

There's no need to worry about water sources and Soul Stone anymore.

There are currently seven wells in the territory, enough for them to drink freely, and also enough to irrigate their farmland.

There are still over four million Soul Stone in reserve.

Without activating the Lotus Pond acceleration feature, it should last for more than half a year without any problems.

Thinking of this, Shen Xing breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Then check out the second update— the Two Worlds Leaderboard.

"This leaderboard is special because players from two different worlds are competing for the same spot."

"Moreover, there are no ranks; all lords, from Grandmaster to novices, are on the same list."

"Because the monster's level and strength are adjusted according to the lord's power, it's relatively fair."

"Of course, in this model, the more powerful the lord, the greater their advantage."

"After all, the stronger the lord, the larger the territory, and the more monsters he can kill."

"However, the specific ranking rewards will not be known until tomorrow."

After finishing his analysis, Shen Xing continued to check the third update— the Myriad Worlds Arena.

This is also a rather important update.

Only lords who rank in the top 1,000 on the leaderboard are qualified to enter this arena and represent their world in battle.

If we can win, we can win the World Origin and buy more time for the whole world.

"There are only one thousand slots available for the battle, to be contested by the lords of both worlds."

"In other words... the world with more lords in the top 1,000 of the rankings will have a greater advantage."

"No wonder the previous Two Worlds Leaderboard didn't have a tiered system; it's an arena prepared for the top experts from both worlds."

"First, use the leaderboard to filter out the top lords from both worlds."

"Then, place these lords onto the same battlefield to determine the ultimate ownership of the World Origin."

"That's really cruel..."

Shen Xing sighed.

This means that the lords of both worlds will do everything in their power to send more strong individuals into the rankings in order to win.

And if you lose the game, you lose the world.

One can imagine that this final battle will be incredibly brutal.

"Furthermore, this Myriad Worlds Arena seems to allow the top 1,000 strongest individuals from other worlds to spectate the matches."

"I just wonder... if I'll run into those people I saw in the hidden level of Lotus Pond last time."

Shen Xing pondered for a moment and decided to stop thinking about it for now.

Then check the fourth update, which is the [Points Shop].

In the last Rain God expansion, the system made a point of recognizing new lords by opening up leaderboard rewards.

Lords of Tier One and above can exchange points for rewards in the Points Shop.

This expansion pack does offer both leaderboard rewards and items that can be redeemed in the Points Shop.

Moreover, according to the system prompts, the items inside seem to be quite good.

It even has Overlord Rank units, Proof of Hero, and legendary equipment.

This made Shen Xing somewhat expectant.

After all, he had never seen a real Legendary Rank item before.
