Chapter 154: Opening Level Cap

When the system issued the announcement, everyone was muted. Therefore, this announcement was seen by everyone. Especially since the announcement was completely highlighted in red, making it even more impossible to ignore. In the next moment, the chat channel’s mute was lifted. A stone caused ripples to spread!

Oh my, I haven’t even reached level ten yet, how did they lift the level ten restriction? Are they trying to make it impossible for people to survive anymore?

I feel the same way, this is simply unreasonable! I just reached level ten, haven’t even familiarized myself with my abilities, and now you’re telling me the level ten restriction has been lifted?

Oh no, my friends, with the level ten restriction lifted, does that mean many experts will appear? Many survivors are anxiously concerned.

Among all the survivors, they belong to the group that levels up slowly and has accumulated less experience. They initially thought they could catch up to others quickly. But with this restriction lifted, the gap between them and others will widen again. The strength of the powerful will skyrocket explosively, while the weak will remain weak. The disparity will only become more obvious.

This also indicates that in the future, their chances of surviving in this world will become increasingly bleak. So, saying there’s no need to worry is impossible.

Apart from those worried about their survival, some individuals are brimming with confidence. They have great faith in their future, believing they can stand out and become prominent survivors. It’s both a crisis and an opportunity!

Indeed, with the restrictions lifted, I can truly showcase my abilities! True strength lies in confronting challenges head-on, facing adversity, going against the tide, charging forward in the torrent, only then can one shine in chaotic times!

At this moment, someone suddenly remembered the incident of the large-scale resource sell-off not long ago, sending shivers down their spines. So, someone brought it up in the chat.

This mention triggered a wave of recollection among everyone, recalling that influential figure.

Suddenly, the chat channel was filled with exclamations. "Oh my, you’re right, I almost forgot about that influential figure. They sold at least hundreds of thousands worth of resources! Hundreds of thousands, maybe even more than two hundred thousand worth of experience points! How terrifying is that?"

This person is indeed fearsome!

With this restriction lifted, what kind of terrifying level will this mysterious powerhouse’s strength reach?!

When this question was raised, everyone fell silent. In reality, each survivor took in a sharp breath. It’s hard to imagine what level of power someone with such an immense amount of experience points will attain.

Unimaginable!

Everyone realized that with the restrictions lifted, competition would become even fiercer. The world would see stronger zombies and more dreadful mutant creatures. At that time, many survivors would inevitably be eliminated or killed.

All survivors felt a mountainous pressure weighing on them. As a result, many people left the system and ventured outside to gain experience, facing new challenges. Some began forming groups privately, joining teams to increase their chances.

They were once individualistic survivors who could thrive in this world. However, at this point, without unity, they might be easily killed by mutated zombies and terrifying mutant creatures. A new reshuffling was coming to the world.

Characters like Waldo, Helen, and Alanna from the villa district naturally saw the system message at the same time. Similarly, they felt immense pressure.

In this situation, survivors might not be willing to trade resources for experience points so easily. "Alanna said."

Waldo also understood this point. "Indeed, you’re right. Now, everyone is focused on leveling up, and they won’t trade resources unless it’s absolutely necessary."

Before, survivors were more eager to exchange resources since there was no pressure to level up. But now, the pressure to level up was weighing on everyone like it did on Franklin.

As expected, shortly after, Waldo placed some resources on the trading platform. However, there were very few takers. Waldo sighed.

It seems like trading resources for experience points won’t work for now.

"The most important thing now is to level up," Alanna said.

Waldo nodded. He transferred some experience points to the two women.

Waldo had an abundance of experience points now, so giving some to them didn’t affect him much. To him, it was just a drop in the bucket.

The two women were extremely happy.

"Are you happy? If you are, give me a kiss," Waldo teased.

The two women rolled their eyes simultaneously.

"Who said they were willing to do anything for me just now?"

Waldo raised an eyebrow.

Alanna made a soft grunt, then leaned over and planted a kiss on his cheek. Helen followed suit.

"Are your experience points enough now? If not, I can give you more."

"They’re enough, you’ve already given us a lot."

"Exactly, actually, it would be better to allocate all the experience points to one person now. That way, we can maximize the value. A level ten strength is much stronger than three level seven strengths!" the two women chimed in.

In truth, they didn’t really want Waldo to give them experience points. But they didn’t want to reject his kindness, so they agreed.

"Alright then," Waldo said helplessly.

"You should level up first and see what level you can reach," Helen reminded.

Waldo nodded. He turned his attention back to his personal attribute panel.

Looking at the terrifying amount of experience points, he didn’t hesitate to use them all for leveling up.

Level 10 to 11 requires 1200 experience points.

Level 11 to 12 requires 1400 experience points.

Level 12 to 13 requires 1600 experience points.

And so on.

A total of 21,000 experience points.

Level up!

Waldo gritted his teeth.

Instantly, a tremendous transformation occurred within his body!

Unlike leveling up before level ten, where the improvements were gradual, after reaching level ten, each subsequent level-up represented a significant leap in physical attributes. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

If reaching level ten marked the limit of human physical qualities, then those who surpassed level ten had transcended those limits.

They were no longer mere mortals; they were superhumans.

As a result, with each level gained after level ten, Waldo’s body experienced a profound transformation. It was like a tidal surge of energy coursing through him, refining his flesh, bones, organs, and everything within him.

This was a form of physical sublimation, a rebirth of the body!

Congratulations to survivor Waldo for reaching level eleven!

Congratulations to survivor Waldo for reaching level twelve!

Congratulations to survivor Waldo for reaching level thirteen!

A series of system prompts echoed in his mind.
