Dull and chaotic knocking sounds came one after another, as if someone was banging their head against the wall in a huge room.
With his whole body wrapped in an "eggshell" composed of the power of faith, Lin An silently avoided the fishnet-like blood vessels in front of him, and the bloodshot red in his eyes was scary.
Ignoring the source of the sound, he knew it was the sound of a corpse hitting the rock wall.
"It's been four days."
After habitually glancing at the system timer, Lin An whispered to himself, frowning.
Although he encountered almost no danger during these four days, he just kept busy.
But as he stayed in this underground space for longer, Lin An still noticed that his body, no, his mind was starting to have problems.
About 16 hours ago, he saw a vision. Seven hours ago, the skin cells on his fingertips actually escaped, as if the limbs thought that the body was dead and were preparing to escape from the trunk!
Just like being soaked in sea water for a long time, your fingers will turn white. This sea of corpses will also soak people alive.
The remaining "consciousness" of a large number of corpses has formed a meme-like death stance, so that the living creatures inside feel that they deserve to die too!
There is no life, only absolute death and depression.
Lin An has no doubt that the area where the artifact is located will be horribly polluted!
"Nightmare level artifact..."
"It can't be some kind of meme prop, right?"
"Could it be that a similar field effect is formed, allowing me to assimilate other people?"
I don't know how many times he thought about what the thing in No. 77's mouth was. Lin An smiled bitterly. The longer he stayed here, the more he realized that that thing was probably very "weird".
There are various signs that the entire Xingyao battlefield is like a carefully arranged petri dish.
Suppress guesswork.
After bypassing several kilometers of blood vessel area and looking at the empty passage in front of him, Lin An stopped thinking about it and simply replenished some of the power of faith before speeding up his flight.
Time is running out. According to the road map given by 77, the time left for him is very tight.
But the only thing that made Lin An feel more relaxed was that he unexpectedly mastered another way to use the power of faith.
Through the combination of the power of faith and the rules of repulsion, he can simultaneously shield the contact between matter and will, just like being wrapped in an insulator, and even spiritual power cannot penetrate the layer of faith.
Not only does it shield the pollution here, it also has a lot of magical effects in battle. After doing a few experiments, Lin An realized that this technique can simulate the rules of concealment.
"The battles after high levels are either beyond visual range or close-quarters and speeding battles."
"For most rule systems, it is difficult for their naked eyes to keep up with super-speed battles. Shielding their detection methods is enough to make them blind..."
Empty Faith, this is the temporary name Lin An gave to this ability.
Although he didn't master many rules, Lin An had already thought of several ways to strengthen this skill.
If he didn't have time to study, he would still want to deduce it.
...
Half an hour later.
Along with the familiar reminder, a tired female voice suddenly sounded.
"Lin An, we have changed places. I will send you the specific coordinates later. There are many bugs in the place we occupied before."
"The last two members of the team who entered virtually are dead. These bugs seem to have been targeting this for a long time."
The voice comes from Mo Ling.
Looking at the situation reports sent by Mo Ling every 12 hours, Lin An raised his eyebrows and his eyes suddenly focused on the images sent by the team.
Under a silver-white mountain wall that looked like the edge of the world, dark red blood exploded at the bottom like paint, and a large number of green insects gathered together, constantly surging upward, forming a huge honeycomb.
In such a scene, it was obvious that many teams who had no time to escape were killed by the worms, and their bodies were used by the worms as food for building their nests.
"Void Zerg or other Zerg?"
"Forget it, just protect yourselves. If you give up, just give up."
The distance in the image was too far, so it was hard to tell what kind of insect race had taken over Mo Ling's territory. However, Lin An didn't care about anything, but the mother insect flashed in his mind for no apparent reason.
The place that Mo Ling and others occupied before was planned by him in advance.
It is the closest place to the exit, and it is far away from the central area of the Eternal Summit, so it stands to reason that not many teams will pay attention to it.
But if you are robbed, you will be robbed. Lin An is not afraid of running into these bugs when he comes out.
The only thing that worries Lin An is that these bugs came here and climbed up for no reason. Is it possible that they were attracted by the "aura" underground? They ran over instinctively?
"I know, you don't have to worry about us."
"Oh, by the way, one more thing. There are marks on Xiong Hanzi and Gao Tian. I guess the system automatically marked them after their points exceeded a certain value."
"That stupid bear is now covered in light and can be seen from several kilometers away."
Under the endless summit of eternity, Mo Ling glanced helplessly at Zhang Tie, who was covered in white light. Gao Tian on the side also had light shining on his head, and the two of them looked like light bulbs.
According to Lin An's intention, they could have relied on her ability to continuously hunt other teams, appearing and disappearing.
But with both of them so conspicuous, the other party would often become wary before she could activate her ability to teleport people there, making it difficult to take action.
Seeing Mo Ling glance at him with some displeasure, Xiong Hanzi could only touch his head in embarrassment, feeling aggrieved.
"My aunt! I didn't mean to steal someone's head! Those idiots always like to set fire to me! I didn't do anything!"
"Oh, that's right, Team Lin! I'm ranked very high now! If I, Lao Zhang, accidentally take the first place, don't blame me! You're so far behind that you're not even ranked!"
Xiong Hanzi looked a little aggrieved as he spoke, but his eyes were filled with a little pride.
I don't know if it's just an instinctive reaction, but the first reaction of most level fives when they see him "flash" in is to kill him, just like a mage who sees a berserker and is afraid of being approached by him.
However, the more this happens, the faster these teams die. The self-destruction is so powerful that even if Zhang Tie wants to give some kills to others, it will be too late.
After these few battles, apart from Gao Tian who was able to score a few points, more than half of the contestants were killed by him. No one expected that Zhang Tie, who was clearly a human shield, would become the strongest DPS
.
"System flag? Behind?"
Listening to the noise on the communication side, Lin An burst into laughter and subconsciously clicked on the ranking.
Having not paid much attention to the rankings, he discovered that Zhang Tie's score had actually exceeded 70 points, and among all the contestants, he had suddenly entered the 80,000th place. Such performance has attracted the attention of many people from the outside world.
As for him, his ranking is not even shown and he is at the bottom of the bottom.
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if it's hard to hunt other teams. Aren't there a lot of special creatures on the battlefield?"
"Let's train with those monsters first. Ranking doesn't matter. Now this score is nothing."
Not paying attention to this, Lin An directly clicked on the top ten rankings after finishing speaking.
He was determined to kill through the entire battlefield from the moment he entered, and didn't care how far behind he was.
Although his ranking is very low now and there is very little time left for him. But for Lin An, the points obtained by others are just kept for him.
After just casually glancing at the rankings, Lin An's eyes suddenly froze.
There is no other reason.
I saw that in the system rankings, the score gap between the top ten was surprisingly large, and even seemed extremely weird.
..
"The third prayer, current total points: 312 points"
"Second Space Walker, current total points: 611 points"
..
"First place..."
"Type 3 virus variant, current total points... 2190??"
