Chapter 594: Chapter 302 Special Hunting Task! (5000 words)_1
While Chen Mo was on the third level, preoccupied with teleporting as if using a cheat, the players on the second level were surprisingly harmonious.
A great threat loomed ahead, and for now, everyone remained relatively peaceful, with no attacks occurring between them.
After all, even the most powerful fourth-transition users couldn’t transcend the rules.
This time, a weird second-transition player, who seemed to defy all logic, had appeared in the event instance. Until he was eliminated, any competition among the others would be futile.
Now that there was an alliance, it wasn’t necessary to attack one another, at least not before this strange element was eradicated.
They even managed to collectively solve the logic for regional transfer on the second level.
This enabled them to quickly advance to the third level, much like Chen Mo, who was bypassing obstacles as if he had a cheat.
It goes without saying that there is strength in numbers.
However, they figured it out later. Zhui Yi and Chen Mo, on the other hand, had the Moluo’s Brain, which inherently contained the solutions.
Logically, Zhui Yi should have been the second player to enter the third level.
But he wasn’t participating in any reward calculations, so even if he was the second to enter the third level, it wouldn’t trigger any broadcast announcements.
As soon as Zhui Yi entered the third level, he immediately learned Chen Mo’s coordinates. However, the restrictions on the third level were greater than on the previous two. Their perception abilities could not extend beyond the area of the room they were in, preventing them from sensing each other.
Moreover, Chen Mo had no idea that Zhui Yi had entered the third level.
Chen Mo was a participant with his own coordinates, but Zhui Yi was merely an outer incarnation, a tool of Chen Mo that had entered the instance. Naturally, the Heavenly Dao wouldn’t assign coordinates to a tool, so Chen Mo couldn’t see Zhui Yi’s location on the map.
Thus, he had no idea about the current situation of his outer incarnation.
However, possessing divine stealth, Zhui Yi was practically invincible in this competition zone, so Chen Mo wasn’t worried about anything happening to him.
After Zhui Yi entered the third level, the Moluo’s Brain immediately provided him with an action strategy.
The room Zhui Yi entered on the third level was not the same one Chen Mo had initially entered; he had started in a different room.
However, regardless of the starting room, to successfully reach the room with the stairs to the next level, one had to choose the correct Teleportation Array 100 consecutive times.
This meant correctly teleporting through 100 rooms in a row to reach the stairs.
This might have been difficult for others, but it was quite easy for Chen Mo.
Yet, Chen Mo was still lingering on the third level.
This wasn’t because he was slow, but because he was collecting points rewards.
Among the four Teleportation Arrays available each time, it wasn’t always the case that three of them were incorrect.
In some rooms, although three of the four Teleportation Arrays were wrong choices for progression, one might lead to a bonus room.
Completing the event in a rewards room yielded points.
For example, Chen Mo had previously encountered treasure chests and BOSS areas.
Chen Mo wasn’t advancing to the next level as quickly as he could, mainly because he was spending time collecting these points rewards.
As the current leader on the points list, his score was several times higher than anyone else’s.
While others had scores in the tens of thousands, his was already over three hundred thousand.
Watching his points skyrocket, many thought the third level was generously handing out benefits.
However, they realized this wasn’t the case when they arrived.
Upon entering, they had to choose from four Teleportation Arrays leading to unknown destinations. Many chose incorrectly on their first try, ending up in a trap room or an imprisonment room.
Still, nearly a quarter of them made the right choice.
However, as the number of people successfully advancing dwindled, the remaining players grew more anxious.
The rooms of the third level filled them with a profound sense of insecurity.
Previously, in the larger environment, they could at least see each other. But now, on the third level, everyone was confined to small rooms. If they encountered that weird second-transition player, wouldn’t death be certain?
Some who were lucky enough to teleport into the same room felt a slight relief at having company; they could help each other if something unexpected happened. Those who were alone, however, felt constantly uneasy. It always felt as if that weird second-transition player would suddenly appear from behind and kill them.
Zhui Yi’s bizarre public killing spree had instilled a deep sense of crisis in everyone.
Wherever they went, they felt surrounded by danger.
The crucial point was their uncertainty: Am I his next target? they wondered, referring to the weird second-transition player.
Although they had formed an alliance, no one dared to bring up the subject of who was whose designated prey; there was a tacit understanding to avoid it.
After all, broaching this topic could potentially disrupt the fragile trust that had been so painstakingly built.
Since no one knew if any player numbers had been missed—meaning some might not have a designated hunter—everyone naturally felt like potential prey, constantly in danger.
Meanwhile, Chen Mo was still merrily accumulating points rewards, while Zhui Yi was rapidly advancing.
The first few rooms Zhui Yi passed through had few rewards. Later, he began entering rooms Chen Mo had already traversed. All the points rewards in these rooms had been thoroughly plundered by Chen Mo, so Zhui Yi saw no need to waste time entering those empty spaces.
A few minutes later, Zhui Yi had caught up with Chen Mo’s progress.
When Chen Mo emerged from a rewards room and returned to a chamber with four Teleportation Arrays, he found Zhui Yi waiting for him.
Although they were in the same event instance, their experiences since parting ways had been different. The moment they reunited, Chen Mo instantly became aware of everything Zhui Yi had experienced since their separation.
