NOVEL NEXT Chapter 282: The Catalyst for Transformation!
"Uh, what's going on? While we're still dealing with the disaster here, someone has actually already breached the Underground Ruins?"
"Such efficiency! It took less than half a day, did they find the outside disaster too boring and decided to go to the Underground Ruins to fight Lizardmen and beggars? By the way, shouldn't beggars be trembling in fear?"
"Speaking of beggars, we caught about ten of them yesterday. Guess what they were doing with the Lizardmen at that time? My goodness, they were pushing cups and toasting, drinking and making merry just like family. If they didn't look so much like us, I would've thought they were a new species of Lizardmen."
"Beggars are despicable! Our Refugee Village was preparing for the disaster yesterday, but a group of Lizardmen, led by a few beggars, stormed into our village and killed over a dozen of us! We have an irreconcilable enmity with beggars!"
"Beggars are indeed disgusting, Lin Yue was right, they're quite a threat. I think we need to unite and form a big alliance to capture all the beggars at once!"
"Absolutely, but speaking of which, who do you think is the big shot that quickly cleared Zone Z1 in such a short time? Should we place a bet? Anyway, now that the World Mall is open, whoever loses can just trade directly with the winner. Alright, I'm betting my life, it's Lin Yue!"
"Goodness, isn't that bet a bit too big? Are you kidding? Alright, I'm betting my life too, Lin Yue."
"Same here."
"Same here +10086"
"If you're all betting on Lin Yue, what's the point?"
"After all, no one else is as impressive, I declare, Lin Yue is the world's number one (shout)"
"Lin Yue being the world's number one, do you need this monster to acknowledge it?"
"Stop sucking up, how annoyed would the big shot get if you irritate them, and then face triple disasters? We'll still need the big shot to save us!"
...
At this moment, the World Channel was in an uproar, bustling with activity.
Originally, everyone was talking about this round of system updates, discussing the emergence of the world trading platform, the rules of the new Secret Realm and Underground Ruins, the roars of seemingly giant creatures, and various other events and issues.
But the system's notification completely interrupted everything.
Just appearing in Zone Z1, the Underground Ruins were broken through instantly. This alone was enough to excite!
As to who so swiftly cleared this maze, which for others was utterly like Hell, filled with heavily armed Lizardmen carrying bombs and their assisting beggars, everyone had a very certain conclusion.
This was definitely Lin Yue's doing, there was no second possibility!
Everyone had a consensus, and no one raised objections.
Only he could do it, only he could accomplish it.
Or rather, everyone couldn't think of a second choice.
Lin Yue, unknowingly, has become an icon, a symbol.
After ranking first on the global leaderboard twice consecutively, fewer people doubted Lin Yue's supposed points inflations.
Especially with his nearly superior, overwhelming advantage, even the second place's high score seemed a bit pitiful.
After all, Lin Yue's score didn't include any Survivor's points, while everyone else counted as "Refugee Village"!
With one more Survivor striving together, that adds 20 points, if it's a hundred people, that's 2000 points!
Like Lily Kalahao, Jia Yunzhan, Xing Lingfeng, and Caspar who ranked from second to fourth, who dared say their Refugee Village wasn't over a hundred people?
Lin Yue's individual effort is comparable to so many people!
Leading nearly two thousand points without the bonus of more Survivors...
This Lin Yue, terrifying indeed!
Everyone was speculating.
What miracles can Lin Yue still create, how many things he cannot do still remain?
...
At this moment.
Lin Yue didn't have time to check what was being said in the groups and World Channel.
His eyes were solely fixated on this gigantic Platinum Treasure Chest before him!
Platinum Treasure Chest! Lin Yue couldn't help but get excited.
Platinum Treasure Chest, the more the merrier!
Although he no longer thinks much of Copper Treasure Chests now, he's still quite focused on those above Silver Treasure Chests.
After all, the things that come out are definitely good stuff.
Quickly storing it away, Lin Yue immediately left the area with Bai and Xiao Meng.
With no Lizardmen left here, there's no reason to stay.
Moreover, it's the seventh day, he doesn't want to linger in a place where he doesn't want to.
There's a ton of stuff outside left to do, where's the idle time to wander?
No idea if cowboys are busy, Lin Yue feels he might be busier than most Survivors in the world!
Soon, he and his two companions exited the Underground Ruins and returned to the Shelter once again.
"Gawu." Bai called out, Lin Yue noticed the Little Ice Lizards covered in mud seemed to have just returned from outside.
"Did you harvest the vegetables?" Lin Yue asked, and the Little Ice Lizards nodded repeatedly.
Seems so.
Lin Yue headed directly to the greenhouses.
Opening the cover of the No. 1 greenhouse, he entered, finding it as damp and stuffy as always, and the baskets on the ground were filled with various ripe vegetables and fruits.
Arranging them neatly, Lin Yue moved over to the Devil's Pepper side once more.
