Kill!

The sky was gray, and endless snowflakes filled the air.

The world was permeated with an overwhelming sense of killing.

Pure white snowflakes stained with blood.

Flesh and blood flew, hot blood spilled onto the ground.

In an instant, it froze into crimson ice crystals.

The battle between Waldo and the snow beasts had been raging on, intense and fierce.

The battle had been going on for almost an hour.

On the ground, there were already a large number of snow beast corpses.

At least seventy or eighty!

During the past hour, many people on board the Dawn wanted to come and help.

However, they were all scolded back by Waldo.

He still needed this battle to adapt to his latest ability!

The greatest sensation was the [Dominance] ability, which was like a melee martial art.

Because of his invulnerable physique, the snow beasts’ attacks were like nothing to him.

As the battle continued, Waldo had actually gained the upper hand.

The more he fought, the more courageous he became, and his momentum continued to rise.

On the contrary, the snow beasts became more and more frightened and fearful as they fought.

What kind of existence was this human who fought them?

Moreover, this person’s combat power was formidable, and every strike was deadly!

Gradually, the snow beasts became scared.

Don’t know which snow beast it was, but after emitting a somewhat different roar, all the snow beasts abandoned the fight and scattered like defeated soldiers, fleeing.

"Fleeing? Are you afraid? But it’s too late, give me your lives!"

After saying that, Waldo immediately chased after them.

Waldo could not only teleport but also fly, and he could even create duplicates of himself.

Thinking about escaping in front of him?

It was simply unrealistic!

Soon, Waldo caught up with all the snow beasts and killed them on the spot.

Blood gushed out, freezing into ice in no time.

Not bad, he had killed over a hundred snow beasts in one go. This achievement was barely acceptable!

Waldo thought to himself.

Meanwhile, upon seeing the successful killing of the snow beasts, the survivors on board the Dawn quickly approached to collect the snow beast corpses.

There were many valuable materials to be salvaged from the snow beast corpses, and their meat could also be consumed.

Waldo was indeed formidable, effortlessly taking on hundreds of snow beasts and killing them.

"Is that so? In my opinion, despite the fact that the global channel is now open, and everyone has appeared, Waldo’s strength is probably the strongest! That’s right, I also think that with Waldo’s strength, there’s no possible rival!"

The people discussed fervently, not concealing their admiration for Waldo.

In their eyes, Waldo had always been a god-like presence.

What they didn’t know was that, at this moment, in almost every location where survivors existed, a group of snow beasts had appeared, varying in numbers.

Once they appeared, they headed towards the direction where the survivors had gathered and engaged in a fierce battle with them.

In this battle, many survivors lost their lives. However, more people resisted the onslaught of the snow beasts with the stranded warships and arks and managed to kill some of the snow beasts.

Many people were filled with fear at the sight of these exceptionally powerful snow beasts because they were formidable opponents that most survivors couldn’t contend with. Even a combat team of more than ten people would have a tough time facing a single snow beast.

The key issue was that these snow beasts appeared in groups, and once encountered, they would likely have no way out!

Many people lamented.

Meanwhile, in a remote location, Lees’ body was drenched in blood. His upper clothing had been torn by snow beasts, and there were multiple scratches on his body, all inflicted by the snow beasts.

His warhammer was stained with blood, emitting a dominant and bloody aroma.

"Hahaha, just like this! Very good!"

Lees panted heavily, looking very satisfied as he gazed at his spoils on the ground. Just moments ago, he had experienced a major battle and successfully killed more than thirty snow beasts.

If anyone else were to witness this scene, they would undoubtedly be astonished and rendered speechless. You see, for most people, just surviving an encounter with snow beasts is considered a success. Yet, Lees not only managed to survive, but he also single-handedly killed over thirty snow beasts. This achievement was truly terrifying.

"Heh heh, that’s not all. If another thirty snow beasts were to come, I believe I can still handle them!"

Lees was very confident.

However, in the next moment, his expression changed slightly. Because he suddenly saw the system announce an important leaderboard.

[Attention all survivors, the global ice age is coming. In order to encourage all survivors to participate in the competition, the system has specially created a Power Ranking!]

[The Power Ranking is based on the levels, combat proficiency, and achievements of all survivors.]

[The first edition of the Power Ranking is officially released. All survivors, please pay attention! At the same time, the top one hundred survivors on the Power Ranking will receive a special reward, the City Building Order!]

A ranking?

Lees was momentarily stunned. Afterward, he looked at the ranking with some anticipation.

With one look, his expression immediately changed!

Impossible!

On the Power Ranking, he was unexpectedly in second place. Moreover, he was far behind the first place!

Level ninety-nine? Killing a hundred and seven snow beasts?

Lees felt a surge of blood rushing to his head.

Such a high level?

Killing so many snow beasts?

"Very well! Waldo, it’s you again! I’ll remember you! Just wait, Waldo, I, Lees, will definitely not lose to you!"

Lees gritted his teeth and roared loudly.

At the same time, Waldo also saw the Power Ranking.

"First place? Not bad!"

He was slightly surprised by the sudden appearance of the ranking. However, the rankings were within his expectations.

If he couldn’t even be the first, then who else could be?

Afterward, Waldo looked at a heavy black token in his hand.

"City Building Order? Can it be used to construct a city? Not bad, at least I have a place to settle!"

Waldo thought to himself.

The recipients of the City Building Orders were not limited to just Waldo. Among the top one hundred on the Power Ranking, each individual received one.

The so-called City Building Order was, in fact, akin to architectural blueprints for constructing a city. Those who possessed the City Building Order could choose a suitable area at random and commence the construction of a city. However, there were different grades of City Building Orders.

Ordinary City Building Orders resulted in the construction of relatively small cities with many incomplete facilities that required further expansion. These were typically categorized as third-level City Building Orders.

The top ten individuals on the Power Ranking received second-level City Building Orders. These allowed for the construction of larger, more fortified cities capable of withstanding attacks from snow beasts. Additionally, the basic infrastructure was considerably more complete, making them qualified cities.

As for Waldo, he received the highest-grade City Building Order, the one and only first-level City Building Order.

Cities built using this order would be the largest, with a wide range of extremely well-equipped facilities, including various entertainment venues, military training grounds, and various military factories. In essence, cities built with a first-level City Building Order were the ultimate human survival bases.

After learning this information, Waldo couldn’t help but smile. It seemed that his City Building Order was exceptional, which matched his identity and strength perfectly.

"Looks like my City Building Order is quite unique! But it also matches my status and power!"

His power had reached the pinnacle of the global Power Ranking, so it was only fitting that he received a much higher-grade City Building Order.

"Heck, Waldo is amazing! He’s ranked first on the global Power Ranking! It’s terrifying!"

"Isn’t that obvious? I knew Waldo had to be the strongest! Just look at how terrifying those snow beasts are. Even level sixty powerhouses are like children in front of them. Only a true powerhouse can face snow beasts alone!"

"That’s right, and Waldo didn’t just face one snow beast; he took on hundreds of them. Snow beasts usually massacre ordinary survivors, but in front of Waldo, it’s the other way around – they get massacred by him!"

So awesome! Coming to Dawn was like hitting the jackpot in my past life!

Hahaha, absolutely!

At this moment, the survivors on Dawn, upon seeing the global Power Ranking, were all inexplicably excited. Unlike Waldo’s composure, these ordinary survivors found it hard to calm down for a long time. Whether it was shock or admiration for Waldo, they were taken to an unparalleled level.

Right now, their hearts were surging, blood was boiling, and their minds couldn’t settle down. Because of this, their actions, even when dealing with the snow beast corpses, became much quicker and more agile, filled with vigor.

In private, they were all talking.

"In my opinion, even though we’ve entered the Ice Age and everything is full of unknowns, and on the icy plains, there are countless extremely dangerous snow beasts posing endless threats, as long as we keep following Waldo, our survival won’t be an issue!"

"That’s right, the rock-solid facts tell us that as long as we follow Waldo closely, we can definitely live quite comfortably. At least, more comfortably than all the other survivors!"

"Exactly, and besides, Waldo now has a City Building Order! And most likely, it’s the highest level City Building Order! Which means, soon, we will have our own sanctuary!"

"Yeah, by then, we’ll have all sorts of entertainment facilities. Hehe, to be honest, it’s been a long time since I’ve had a good time!"

"Haha, don’t worry, there’ll be opportunities!"

The crowd was very happy, full of expectations and longing for the future. With Waldo as their backer, they felt like they had a pillar of support. Unlike the majority of survivors who were filled with confusion, fear, and even panic.

At this point, someone exclaimed in excitement, "As the first batch of Waldo’s followers, after Waldo builds the city, we’ll be the elders!"

Will our status rise with the future growth of the city? It’s possible. However, in the end, how well we do will still depend on our abilities. Don’t overthink it. Work diligently, and Waldo won’t treat you unfairly.

The crowd nodded in agreement, understanding the wisdom in those words.

Meanwhile, Alanna and Helen were quite astonished when they saw the power rankings. They knew Waldo was incredibly strong.

Level ninety-nine was already at the current limit. Coupled with Waldo’s mastery of numerous powerful abilities, he had practically no rivals. He was one of the top individuals among all survivors.

However, when they saw Waldo ranked first, pulling far ahead of everyone else, they were still amazed.

He’s so strong! Truly deserving to be my man!

Alanna and Helen couldn’t help but admire Waldo.

Fortunately, Waldo had been theirs for a while now. Otherwise, at this point, they wouldn’t even have the qualification to speak with him!

Nowadays, who knows how many women around the world envy them!

"Hahaha, not bad, not bad at all!"

Waldo smiled faintly, not hiding his pride.
