Chapter 591: Chapter 299: Bizarre Death Incident!_1
Just as everyone had been transported to this area and was preparing to see which grid they would move to, a top fourth-transition player within their perception range suddenly had their resurrection triggered.
"Who struck that blow!?"
The top fourth-transition player who had been forced to resurrect looked around in shock. At least ten other top fourth-transition players were nearby, yet no one knew who was responsible.
Not only was he stunned, but the ten other top fourth-transition players were equally flabbergasted.
This was because they hadn’t seen who launched the attack, how it was launched, or even what kind of attack it was!
Almost instantly, Player 3745 was insta-killed.
Such an invisible and abnormally damaging attack terrified everyone present.
Instantly, everyone felt endangered and scanned their surroundings with utmost vigilance.
They didn’t believe anyone currently visible had made the move.
After all, if someone visible had attacked, they would have sensed the movement.
Since they had sensed nothing, the attacker was clearly hidden, lurking in the shadows.
At this thought, one person immediately threw out a strange blue lantern, apparently to detect invisible units. Another took out a Mirror of Illusion, hoping to see if someone was hiding in the Void Realm. Yet, despite their efforts, they found no one.
"No signs of invisibility, nothing in the Void Realm, no anomalies at all... So, who could have attacked?"
It wasn’t just them; even individuals further away with extensive perception ranges noticed the anomaly here and were incredibly astonished.
A top fourth-transition expert, with at least one billion Health and ten million in dual defense, had been killed so easily.
It was simply monstrous.
The crucial point was that they still couldn’t see the attacker. No matter who tried or how they sensed, the result was the same: the attacker remained unfound.
Just as everyone was wondering, Player 3745, who had just revived and was getting up in a flash of light, was instantly slain again.
Instantly, everyone became like startled birds, frantically looking around, but they saw absolutely nothing.
"What in the world is happening? We can’t even see how the attacks are landing on him! This is too terrifying!"
"The rules forcibly limit attack range to within a hundred meters; it’s impossible for anyone to attack beyond that! But our perception range isn’t limited to a hundred meters! How could we possibly not see anyone attacking?"
"This is truly bizarre! We need to get teleported out when the timer’s up! It’s too dangerous here."
Several people wanted to be whisked away by the rules immediately, but it wasn’t that simple.
The interval between each area transfer was a full ten seconds—enough time for Zhui Yi to kill anyone not in an Invincible State.
But Zhui Yi’s sole target at this moment was Player 3745.
Initially, when Player 3745 was insta-killed, he didn’t know who the attacker was. However, when the notification about his abilities being sealed appeared, he finally realized.
"It’s Player 6659! That bizarre second-transition player! Watch out for Player 6659!"
As he shouted, his Health was once again depleted.
Ultimately, he died on the spot.
He possessed three resurrection methods and three invincibility methods.
Rather than his resurrection methods, Zhui Yi naturally prioritized sealing his invincibility methods.
Otherwise, he could have easily lasted ten seconds and been teleported away.
It was uncertain when Zhui Yi would encounter him again.
With Zhui Yi sealing all his invincibility abilities, resurrection was futile. After three consecutive ferocious attacks, Player 3745 finally collapsed and died on the spot.
As for his Ghost, Zhui Yi chose to disperse it directly. Its fourth-transition combat power was useless; it wasn’t qualified to occupy a spot in the Special Space for the Undead.
Due to the considerable distance, Chen Mo and Zhui Yi hadn’t communicated about this kill.
This time, Zhui Yi had proactively decided to eliminate the prey.
However, this was perfectly aligned with Chen Mo’s methods, saving him considerable trouble.
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Congratulations! You have successfully killed your prey. You receive a hunting reward of 10,000 points and also acquire all points accumulated by your prey: 20,000 points!]
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: By killing your prey, you inherit their prey target. Your new prey is Player 1582.]
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: All data related to contestants who have died in the Demon Tower exploration event will be completely erased and recycled from the instance. Loot drop collection complete. Based on the total value of the opponent’s dropped items, you have gained 3,000,000 victory points! These can be exchanged for rewards when the event concludes. Note: If you are killed, these points will also transfer to your killer!]
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: ’Mother Zhua · Player 3745,’ a Level 100 Food and Lodging-type contestant (Fourth-Transition, 25th-Star Class "The Solid Wanderer") has died! Current contestants remaining in the instance: 9,998!]
With the death of Mother Zhua, Player 3745, the entire Demon Tower was thrown into an uproar.
Many people had just witnessed Mother Zhua’s death. Yet, no one knew how she died, who had attacked her, or had even seen the assailant.
Such a bizarre death, occurring under everyone’s noses, was deeply unsettling to all who witnessed it.
If she had been openly overpowered and killed, people would have, at most, lamented that her opponent was too strong and she too weak; her death would have been just that—a death.
But now, she had perished without anyone seeing where the opponent was, let alone the nature of the attack.
This manner of death was so bizarre and terrifying that anyone imagining themselves in Player 3745’s shoes would break out in a cold sweat!
Thanks to Mother Zhua’s final, desperate cry, people finally had a suspect.
All eyes swiftly turned to the leaderboard. Sure enough, Chen Mo’s points had clearly risen to 140,000.
This figure perfectly matched the points he would gain from killing Mother Zhua.
Kill announcements and point changes didn’t lie.
The fact that the victim herself had cried out the attacker’s name made it all the more convincing.
Previously, on the first floor, those outside the tower had clearly seen Wipha die remotely, while Chen Mo’s points inexplicably increased.
However, the contestants inside the tower didn’t know how Wipha had died. They merely assumed the two had encountered each other and Chen Mo had killed Wipha, so their reactions weren’t particularly strong.
Yet, after Wipha’s death on the first floor, they had somewhat acknowledged Chen Mo’s strength, understanding he possessed the capability to kill top fourth-transition experts.
Although they couldn’t fathom how a second-transition player could possess such formidable combat strength, the facts were laid bare before them, impossible to deny.
At most, they had believed Chen Mo capable of killing top fourth-transition experts. They had never imagined, however, that such an expert would die so inexplicably.
It wasn’t until Mother Zhua’s death that the contestants in this fourth competition zone truly grasped what kind of monster had entered their midst.
After another regional transfer, even those who had been too distant to perceive the events in the previous area soon heard the news spreading from those in the know.
