Chapter 87: The Surprising Change in the Copy
“We’ll need Shengnan and Zhu Wu to make a move then. The monster strength within the Blood Barrier has surged, and with the arrival of the Third Stage, there will definitely be numerous hero BOSSes evolving into Lord Bosses. These genius candidates may not be able to cope.”
Ying Xueji said looking at the two of them.
“1 can finally fight without holding back, gotta get some good exercise. Tuanzi, do you want to go out with your big sis for a bit? I’ll make you some delicious creamy milk.”
Liu Shengnan stretched languidly, devoid of any image, then turned to the panda Tuanzi who was riding on Li Fengwen’s neck and pulling his hair, tempting it while reaching out to hug and stroke its fur.
“No, my human pet Little Wenwen will prepare everything for me. I don’t want
to go out and fight with a violent maniac like you.”
The panda Tuanzi clung tightly to Li Fengwen’s head, stubbornly resisting Liu
Shengnan1 s harassment and tugging.
“My hair, my beautiful hair, oh please stop, I don’t want to go bald so young-!
Li Fengwen clutched desperately at the panda Tuanzi’s front paws to prevent the little beast from scalping him, as he howled like a ghost nonstop.
The two bystanders twitched at the corners of their eyes while watching, envy flashing in their eyes when they looked at Tuanzi.
A Level 1 Lord template cub is indeed a rare find, with tremendous potential in their hands.
If it weren’t for the fact that everyone’s status and identity were equal, they would really be tempted to toss Li Fengwen in a sack and snatch away the panda Tuanzi.
Seeing that she couldn’t pull Tuanzi away, Liu Shengnan gave up sullenly and then reluctantly left with Zhu Wu.
“Can you locate that pervert? He took our points and thinks he can run without doing the work, that’s not going to work.”
Thinking about how someone forcefully made good karma, Ying Xueji couldn’t help but roll her eyes, and what was even more infuriating was that the guy even bullied women.
Such a delicate beauty as herself, and that guy had the gall to take action for the sake of karma, she was so angry that it hurt!
If it wasn’t for the fact that she couldn’t expose her trump card at that time, she would have made him kneel under her skirt and sing “Conquest!
“Relax, everything is under control. He’s hiding at the edge of the Blood Barrier clearing monsters.”
Shared joy is double joy. Having been ground against the floor once, Li
Fengwen naturally wanted to share the experience with his good brothers and sisters.
Since the emergence of the Blood Barrier, Zi Liyuan, who had been preparing to enter the central BOSS area, halted his steps.
He even wretchedly used other candidates for experiments several times, such as capturing some who wanted to make karma with him and throwing them into the Blood Barrier.
Once he confirmed that the thing was one-way only, Zi Liyuan, along with Shen Yurou, lingered around the periphery of the Blood Barrier, clearing monsters while using the Eye of Death to scout the situation within more than three hundred meters inside the Blood Barrier.
When he saw a large group of hero BOSSes chasing the candidates in flocks and found Lords among the BOSSes, he promptly retreated to a safe distance.
“Are we really not going in?”
Shen Yurou was utterly perplexed, recalling that they had planned to enter the central BOSS area in the Third Stage, and now they had stopped moving forward.
“We will enter, but we have to wait a bit longer.”
While scouting the situation, he opened the leaderboard, and particularly, when he saw many of the examinees’ scores no longer moved, gradually being edged out of the top hundred by newcomers, Zi Liyuan couldn’t help but become more cautious.
The spectacle the cultists had created was bigger than he had imagined, especially since he observed that a number of Lord Bosses had appeared within the blood-red barrier, posing a significant threat to him as well.
He wasn’t afraid of a single Lord, he could even kill them with ease, because those Lord Bosses were merely First Order, with levels at most reaching LV40, so they weren’t too difficult for him to defeat.
But the problem was the sheer number of them, and they tended to stick together!
The three-dimensional map displayed by the Eye of Death revealed that there were over a dozen Lord Bosses ganging up on the examinees!
Good heavens, Lord Bosses teaming up to beat up examinees, that’s outrageous!
What was even more outrageous was that he found after some examinees were beaten to death, their bodies appeared, instead of being protected by the trial copy and kicked out of it!
So, the rules of the copy inside the blood-red barrier had been changed, after sustaining fatal injuries, the examinees would die, instead of being kicked out of the copy!
This discovery made him hesitate to enter rashly without being fully confident, survival was the top priority!
Given the number of Bosses within the blood-red barrier, among those examinees trapped inside, probably only the members of the four imperial families could withstand this wave of anomalies, the rest were merely cannon fodder, at risk of dying at any moment.
Zi Liyuan decided to wait, wait for those four guys to make their move, kill a large number of Lord Bosses, and then go in to beg from them, after all, they didn’t need points, did they?
He could also lend them a hand by relieving some of their pressure, and to prevent them from turning on each other over unequal distribution, he could help take good care of the Evil God’s body.
However, though the plan was good, it often failed to keep up with the rapidly unfolding events.
The anomalous event happened once again, before the first night of the third stage was even over.
Six blood pillars soared into the sky from the edges of the central area in six different directions, piercing into the high heavens.
The next moment, the entire realm of the copy was dyed the color of fresh blood, invisible barriers in the space of the copy were torn open by a fist-sized bloody hole, strands of evil aura began to infiltrate the world of the copy.
This was the result of the six additional altars at the edge of the central area being activated simultaneously, creating gaps in the spatial barriers of the trial copy, allowing more of the Evil God’s aura to descend upon this world and, in turn, erode and destroy the existing rules of the copy.
It was as the six blood pillars shot into the sky that several gateways suddenly opened on the blood-red barrier, which previously allowed entry but no exit, and thousands of Heroic Bosses, led by a hundred blood-red Lord Bosses, charged out of the central area.
As time passed and the six blood pillars exhausted all their blood energy, the gateways on the blood-red barrier began to slowly heal and shut once again. “Damn your great uncle! Stirring up trouble when people should be sleeping, seriously?!”
Zi Liyuan had never expected that thousands of Heroic Bosses and over a hundred Lord Bosses would burst out from the blood-red barrier.
Even worse, the direction of their charge was just across the street from where he and Shen Yurou had chosen to stay.
The evolved Bosses, having become more adept at seeking out humans, naturally discovered Zi Liyuan and Shen Yurou hiding across the street without much effort.
Thus, without a doubt, the two were surrounded by a Lord Boss, accompanied by over forty Heroic Bosses.
“I didn’t enter the blood-red barrier to trouble you, and yet you’re the ones to come to me first. If a tiger doesn’t show his power, do you really take me for Hello Kitty?”
Looking at the BUS of uniform LV40 Bosses that had invaded the building, Zi Liyuan waved the hand holding his Magic Wand, and countless Shield Combat Skeletons surged out from the summoning Array, firmly encircling the group of
Bosses.
