Chapter 595: Chapter 302: Special Hunting Task! (5000 words)_2
"Interesting. Only two people have been killed, and alliances are already starting to form. It seems you’ve put quite a bit of pressure on them, Zhui Yi."
Chen Mo grinned at Zhui Yi.
"Master, I reasoned that to obtain the most points, we needed to minimize their infighting. My public display of killing was intended to put immense pressure on them, forcing them to consider uniting against us. This way, they’re less likely to kill each other, which would prevent too many points from being lost. I, Zhui Yi, acted on my own judgment, and I hope I haven’t caused you any trouble," Zhui Yi said at once, his expression apologetic.
"They’re only fourth-transition; forming an alliance is fine. If they can’t break my invisible state, it’s meaningless no matter how many fourth-transition members they gather. Don’t worry, you did a good job. Just act with confidence. We think alike, so I trust your decisions. Besides, I’d rather they form an alliance. As you said, if they don’t fight amongst themselves, all the points they accumulate will eventually be mine!" Chen Mo concluded with a smile, patting Zhui Yi’s head.
As they spoke, the two of them headed towards the Teleportation Array in the next room.
With Zhui Yi’s help, acquiring rewards became much faster. If a room had two reward Teleportation Arrays, they would take them together, saving Chen Mo half the time.
If a room had only one reward Teleportation Array, Chen Mo would let Zhui Yi enter it while he proceeded to the next floor, significantly improving efficiency.
In less than ten minutes, their points had reached 500,000. However, they did not break the historical record.
The historical record on the third floor was three million points.
But this was primarily due to fierce fighting, with participants stealing points from each other.
After all, activity dungeons are rarely this harmonious. While participants might suppress the urge to fight on the second floor, the small rooms of the third floor meant any encounter would inevitably lead to an immediate battle.
According to the dark forest principle, no one could be sure if others in the room would attack them, so striking first was always the best option.
For now, it was purely Chen Mo’s terrifying deterrence that had compelled these individuals to temporarily unite against him, much like disparate factions banding together to confront a common, overwhelmingly powerful enemy they perceived as a Demon King.
Chen Mo, however, was still in the "fattening the pigs" stage and had no intention of slaughtering them prematurely, which was why his point accumulation was relatively slow.
If historical records tracked rankings based purely on individually accumulated point rewards, Chen Mo’s current score on the third floor would already be the highest in history.
A few minutes later, Chen Mo and Zhui Yi had arrived at the staircase.
At this point, the others weren’t faring too badly. Having formed an alliance, they could share information about correct and incorrect Teleportation Arrays. This allowed anyone entering a previously explored room to find the right path more smoothly.
However, their methods were still a far cry from Chen Mo and Zhui Yi’s almost cheat-like ability to pinpoint the correct Teleportation Array.
As they were all striving forward, Chen Mo received a notification from the Heavenly Dao.
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Congratulations to Solar System competitor number 6659 for being the first to reach the fourth floor of the Demon Tower. As he was the first professional to reach the third floor, he will be awarded 90,000 points as a reward.
Everyone else, please hurry. Secure a good ranking. Continuously achieving high rankings will increase the reward multiplier for subsequent placements.
Currently, if Solar System competitor number 6659 is among the first three to enter the fifth floor, he will receive an additional reward bonus equal to twice the corresponding placement reward.
The first competitor to enter the fifth floor will be awarded 40,000 points, the second will receive 30,000 points, and the third will receive 20,000 points.]
He’s too fast! What’s with this guy? He’s choosing from four Teleportation Arrays all by himself, while we’re a large group working together to eliminate wrong answers! How can he be so fast? It was the same on the second floor; how could one person grasp the area’s teleportation pattern so quickly?
The more they considered Chen Mo’s performance, the more incredible it seemed.
However, Chen Mo’s point total was already leading by a vast margin, so they didn’t really care how many more points he earned.
In fact, the more points Chen Mo got, the happier they were. This way, if they had the chance to land the final blow when they eventually ganged up to kill him, the number of points they could gain in one go would be massive.
While the others on the third floor cooperatively rushed towards the nearest staircase room, Chen Mo had already begun exploring the fourth floor.
The fourth floor was much stranger than the previous three.
As soon as Chen Mo entered, he was enveloped in a dense fog.
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Fourth-floor rules: Perception ability is completely nullified. Your damage range is limited to one hundred meters around you. The fog contains various teleportation points and trap points; please explore carefully to avoid them. Every ten seconds, the surrounding fog will dissipate for one second. During this brief moment, your perception ability will return. Utilize this one second of perception to help you navigate away from areas you wish to avoid.]
"This level is even more ridiculous than the first three," Chen Mo muttered. "I can’t see a thing around me."
If Zhui Yi hadn’t been nearby, triggering the shared memory feature of his outer incarnation, Chen Mo wouldn’t even have known Zhui Yi’s position beside him.
