I started with a seed, luckily I have probability glasses

[The stage, the lights, the cheers, the passion! Players who have overcome numerous challenges! Please find the right path, overcome the numerous challenges, and enter the final battlefield!]

[Current distance to the final battlefield: 5000 meters]

【任务奖励：金币*5000、经验值*400000、顶级hp恢复药剂*50、顶级mp恢复药剂*50、进化之核（紫）*10、宝箱（宝箱品级由个人排名决定）*1。】

[Mission Penalty: Deprive Player of Rights]

[Task time limit: None]

[The auction house, leaderboards, and scoreboard in the Fortress Arena area have been unlocked.]

[You have been cursed with the 'Instant Death Curse'! ]

In a moment of trance, Li Chuan's vision was immediately occupied by silver-white.

Looking around, there was a silver metal floor, silver walls, and dazzling white lights.

Li Chuan shrugged helplessly.

He had been to this place before. It was the oval metal trial field in the first competitive mission. However, compared with the first time he came here, the doors of this trial field seemed to be all open this time.

Although it has been less than half a month since the competitive mission, it feels like half a lifetime has passed.

[Instant Death Curse: Negative status! Advanced curse. When the curser triggers a certain condition, they will die instantly! (The Instant Death Curse is mandatory and cannot be circumvented!)]

This curse, haha!

It's completely unreasonable, even more unreasonable than parasitism!

angry!

But there is nothing I can do about it...

In the bright hall.

Cheng Nannan first found Li Chuan in the crowd, then Lin Yaoyao, and then the three of them found Zhang Heng who was studying the metal ground.

Lin Yaoyao looked around at the pitch-black corridors in the metal hall that opened in eight directions.

"Brother Chuan, I feel like this defense is going to be really difficult."

Cheng Nannan was puzzled.

"Defending what? I see the mission requires finding the final battlefield. This should be a mission similar to navigating a maze, right?"

Lin Yaoyao tilted her head.

"Ah? Is that so? Oh, then I didn't see it. I thought it was the same as last time."

The player team was very noisy at this time. Because the mission description was too concise, many players fell into speculation and debate.

But those who have survived until now are not fools. No matter how much they argue, no one dares to enter any passage and try.

Li Chuan didn't want to join in this debate which had no meaning for the time being.

"Let's go to a quiet place to collect the reward."

The four of them walked away from the crowd and came to a corner of the trial field.

[Level 6 Permanent Upgrade Coupon: Purple]

[After use, there is a chance to upgrade the equipment level (the highest is pink), and it can also convert time-limited props into permanent props (the effects can be stacked) (the success rate of this prop is extremely low). ]

[Comment: Integrating rules into weapon refining, hehe...]

It can upgrade purple to pink, and can also transform temporary props into permanent props...

This is a disguised way of allowing players to own a nightmare-level equipment of their own.

But Li Chuan did not consider which equipment to upgrade at the first time, but directly thought of the temporary photosynthetic cabin that housed Xiaolu.

Compared to equipment that will definitely be eliminated in the future, it may be more practical to have a permanent photosynthetic cabin that is not troubled by time limits and allows Xiaolu to enter and exit at any time.

Taking out the purple 'temporary photosynthetic chamber' that was currently nurturing Xiaolu, Li Chuan used the 'Level 6 Permanent Upgrade Voucher' on it without hesitation.

The probability of first use was not good, so Li Chuan quickly clicked cancel, and then continued to use it. After seven or eight times, the photosynthetic cabin finally popped up a probability that satisfied Li Chuan.

[Upgrade to 'Temporary Photosynthesis Chamber: Purple'?]

[98%]

"Yes!"

【Super Photosynthetic Cabin: Pink】

[Product of the Imperial Specialized Laboratory, containing a Life Core Fragment as its core, it accelerates the growth and advancement of plant spirits. (Ninth-generation permanent chamber, can be retrieved and stored once daily.) (Plant spirits with some intelligence will gradually gain partial control of the chamber.) (Note: The Life Core Fragment must be recharged every thirty days.)]

[Comment: No matter how magical the world is, technology is the primary productive force! ]

Li Chuan immediately showed a satisfied smile.

That’s good. This way, we don’t have to worry about the green plants being forced to be planted in places that are not suitable for growth.

Xiaolu is his lifeblood, and he wouldn't let anything unexpected happen to it!

After upgrading his own photosynthetic cabin, Li Chuan also upgraded Lin Yaoyao's temporary photosynthetic cabin to a special permanent photosynthetic cabin.

As for Cheng Nannan, she did not choose to upgrade the photosynthetic cabin, but upgraded her purple-grade lancet, and successfully upgraded it to pink grade with the help of Li Chuan.

After using up the permanent upgrade coupon, Li Chuan took out his golden treasure chest.

In the survivors' guild, only Li Chuan completed the third main mission perfectly and obtained a golden treasure chest.

Although Lin Yaoyao destroyed more than eighty species of parasites, she only got a silver treasure chest.

Li Chuan reasonably believes that the number of times is one hundred, which is the watershed of task rating.

Cheng Nannan and Zhang Heng's mission progress was only a dozen or so, and the mission evaluation was "average", and each of them only had one bronze treasure chest.

To this day, Li Chuan no longer has any desire to open the bronze treasure chest.

A purple explosive necklace was found in Lin Yaoyao's silver treasure chest. The properties of the necklace were very suitable for Lin Yaoyao, so it was returned to its original owner.

Then Li Chuan silently waited for the best time to open his golden treasure chest. When the probability reached 98%, he decisively chose to open it.

Three thousand gold coins, five purple evolution cores, ten pieces of pink quality berry blood deer meat, and a pink ring.

[Source of Mana Ring: Pink]

【Wear Level: Level 40】

[Mana +500]

[All skill cooldowns -10%]

[Additional Skill: Good Luck After Misfortune (Active Skill: Restores 100% of one's mana upon activation, Skill Cost: None, Skill Cooldown: 6 hours)]

【Comment: Magic Spring Water is the best skin care product in the world. 】

Not bad! Quite good!

This should be a top-grade mana ring for mages.

But it can also make up for Li Chuan's current shortcomings, which is like providing timely assistance.

The level requirement is 40, so Li Chuan can't wear it yet, but he will be able to do it soon.

The nightmare-level source of mana ring is very attractive, but it is not Li Chuan’s biggest gain in the main mission three. His biggest gain is nothing else but shadow fruit, a huge number of shadow fruit!

Li Chuan has fifty-three shadow fruits, which are of the highest quality and can improve the player's basic attributes!

Based on the calculation that each pill can increase six points of strength and sixty points of mana, his strength can increase by more than three hundred points and his mana by more than three thousand points!

It’s exciting just thinking about it!

But after eating a shadow fruit, Li Chuan was no longer excited.

"Damn it! How come no one ever told me that I can only eat one Shadow Fruit a day!"

Lin Yaoyao’s answer was, we don’t know whether you don’t know about this, and you haven’t asked either.

Li Chuan was speechless, and then opened the ranking list, auction house, and scoreboard of the current area in turn to check.

Compared to the Sky Tree, the current regional comprehensive combat power rankings have changed significantly.

Li Chuan is no longer at the top of the list, but has slipped to second place.

[Fortress Arena Regional Combat Power Ranking]

[Combat Power Ranking: First Place, Xunxian: Level 36 Jedi Knight, Overall Combat Power: 9.8]

Second Place: Level 38 Shadow Hunter, Overall Combat Power: 9.7

[Third Place, Self-Forgetfulness: Level 32 Magician, Overall Combat Power: 9.7]

[Fourth Place, Moon of the Nine Heavens: Level 36 Magic Warrior, Overall Combat Power: 9.7]

……

I got stuck at level 38 on the ninth section of the Sky Tree due to a bug! And I was actually still being suppressed by others.

Li Chuan didn't blame anything else but his own damn activated bloodline that seemed to have crashed!

The attributes are not bad, the profession is not bad, the weapons and equipment are even better, so apart from the bloodline, what else can be wrong?

But compared to Li Chuan, the third one who forgot himself was even stranger. He ranked second on the list with a mere level 32. This situation must be extremely abnormal in some aspect.

The standings are divided into individual standings and team standings. There is no ranking yet, but you can see how many teams there are and how many people there are in total.

Fifty teams! Over seven thousand eight hundred players! A terrifying number! The sheer number of players clearly put a lot of pressure on Li Chuan.

Previously, in the competitive mission, the number of Li Chuan and others who had just come out of the forbidden land was F4083. Now, after merging with the survivors in various areas of the Giant Palace, the number has become E333.

It looks like he's been promoted.

If it survives this time by chance and merges with many areas, it will probably become a number starting with D.

Is this game system treating us like parasites?

Due to the surge in the number of players, many high-end items have appeared in regional auction houses, such as pink equipment, props, materials, and consumables.

But most of these things are marked with extremely high prices.

Li Chuan could understand the seller's intention, which was to exchange but not sell.

In addition to the leaderboard and auction house, the game system also enabled a decomposition function when the second competitive mission was released.

Its function is to decompose low-grade equipment, materials, etc. into energy crystals of various grades.

At this time, Li Chuan's advantage was highlighted. His backpack was super big, almost as big as the guild warehouse.

The two massive storage spaces were now filled with blue-grade and lower equipment and various materials! These could all be broken down into energy crystals, unlike other players who had to discard a lot of equipment and materials due to lack of space in their backpacks.

Energy crystals are a new type of consumable item with a wide range of uses. They can be used as energy for various secondary professions, and can also be used as consumables for certain special skills that require energy consumption.

For example, Li Chuan's nightmare-level growth weapon, the Electromagnetic Storm Triangular Dagger, has an additional skill called "Electromagnetic Shock"!

[Energy Crystal: White]

[Crystals containing a certain amount of energy have good storage and adaptability.]

A green energy crystal can be decomposed into ten white energy crystals, and each use of the electromagnetic storm consumes five white energy crystals.

When the four of them were busy throwing various items in their backpacks into the decomposition chamber, they suddenly heard a somewhat dissatisfied cry.

"Mr. Li, my guild leader wants you to come over to discuss matters related to the mission."
