"Very well, this Snow Beast King is mine!I and Waldo, will become the only level one hundred powerhouse in all of humanity!"

In this moment, Waldo was somewhat excited. Not exactly exhilarated, but certainly looking forward to the future.

Afterward, Waldo composed himself and asked, "Did you receive a message from the system?"

"Huh?" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Calvert was momentarily puzzled, not knowing what Waldo was talking about.

Seeing his reaction, Waldo instantly understood. Calvert definitely hadn’t received this message.

Could it be that only I received this message?

However, the possibility was small. It couldn’t be that only I received this message. There should be others, but it might be very few, needing to meet certain conditions! Waldo speculated.

"What did you just mention about a system message, Lord? I didn’t see it here. What’s going on?" Calvert asked in confusion.

Waldo explained to him.

Upon hearing this, Calvert’s eyes widened.

An opportunity to break through level one hundred? This... this is excellent!

The Snow Beast King possesses such terrifying strength, no matter who it is, they definitely wouldn’t be its match. Only you, Lord, can go up against it!

"It seems, Lord, you will definitely reach level one hundred this time and become the only level one hundred powerhouse in all of humanity!" Calvert said happily.

Waldo shook his head with a smile.

"It’ll take another half a month before the Snow Beast King truly appears. There’s no hurry now. Besides, things probably aren’t that simple. Don’t jump to conclusions so easily."

"No, it’s just being realistic."

Calvert shook his head repeatedly.

Almost all of those who received this system message are among the top one hundred ranked powerhouses globally.

Only they are qualified to deal with the Snow Beast King.

Before this, most of them had already broken through level eighty.

Deal with the Snow Beast King? My current strength isn’t quite up to par; I need to do my best to increase my level to stand a chance!

A top hundred powerhouse thought to himself.

He himself had just reached level eighty.

However, in these days, because he had slaughtered numerous Snow Beasts, he gained a vast amount of experience points and evolution points.

Afterward, under the pretext of dealing with the Snow Beast King, he demanded a large amount of experience points from his tens of thousands of subordinates.

Utilizing various channels, he used this massive amount of experience points he obtained to focus on leveling up.

His level rapidly shot up.

Soon, his whole body exuded an extremely formidable aura, many times more powerful than before. It was awe-inspiring.

When many subordinates saw him, they couldn’t help but look at him with astonishment.

Level ninety-nine, what’s the difficulty? Isn’t it a piece of cake?

He laughed heartily.

This Snow Beast attack on the city was a good thing for him. It brought him a lot of experience points, allowing him to reach level ninety-nine in one go!

"Very well, hunting the Snow Beast King—I can also get a share! Who knows, I might even reach level one hundred?!"

"Dawn City? Wasn’t this Waldo’s territory?"

"Haha, unexpectedly, I have reached the same level as Waldo. Marvelous, simply marvelous!"

Many people were in a situation similar to his.

Before the arrival of the Snow Beasts, experience points were scarce due to limited resources. The survivors in the top hundred had levels generally around eighty.

At most, there were only two or three level ninety individuals. As for level ninety-nine powerhouses, there was only that monster Waldo.

However, after experiencing the Snow Beast calamity, everyone gained a massive amount of experience points. Especially as the strongest of various factions, they wielded endless authority.

Thus, when they saw that the Snow Beast King was the opportunity to break through level one hundred, they couldn’t sit still any longer.

They couldn’t care much about others and forcedly collected large amounts of experience points from their tens of thousands of subordinates, regardless of whether the other party was willing or not.

Unfortunately, the ordinary survivors who had just endured the Snow Beast disaster hadn’t had a chance to catch their breath yet, and their leaders forcibly took away their few remaining experience points.

For a while, people all around the world lamented and complained. Some secretly cursed their bosses.

As a result, the next day, they disappeared.

The reason given was that they were killed when dealing with the Snow Beasts.

As a result, everyone fell silent.

No one spoke a word. This situation played out in major cities.

These powerhouses, in order to break through level one hundred, no longer cared about the lives of their subordinates.

Soon, a few days later, on the updated power rankings, the top one hundred were almost all level ninety powerhouses.

Surprisingly, the number of survivors at level ninety-nine was over thirty.

This number was somewhat terrifying.

"Haha, Dawn City, Snow Beast King, here I come!"

Someone laughed heartily, piloting a helicopter directly toward Dawn City.

Filled with valor, they wanted to make a name for themselves and trample all their previous opponents underfoot.

Even that god-like figure, the revered Waldo, would be no exception.

Just thinking about it filled one with longing, igniting the blood with enthusiasm.

Meanwhile, in the Western region,

Lees crackled with lightning, and faint sounds of thunder could be heard in the air.

Every move he made seemed to carry the might of thunder.

His massive hammer descended.

Crack!

A bolt of lightning appeared above the hammer and struck a distant area, creating a long trench on the ground!

"Heh, in this world, besides Waldo, there’s no one who can match me."

Although there are many level ninety-nine powerhouses, they are just a bunch of weaklings, falsely claiming to be level ninety-nine!

It’s just a level increase; they remain weak in other aspects. Moreover, sacrificing everything for the sake of leveling up is nothing; they don’t deserve to be my opponents!

A hint of disdain curled Lees’ lips.

He was well aware of how some of these so-called level ninety-nine powerhouses came to be.

These people, despite their intimidating levels, were not true opponents of him and Waldo.

Even if they all joined forces, they couldn’t defeat Lees and Waldo.

My only opponent is Waldo!

Lees was very confident, filled with fighting spirit!

Because just now, he had elevated his ability [Lightning] to level five!

Soon, he returned to his own city.

Numerous subordinates stared in astonishment at Lees, surrounded by crackling lightning.

Go to Dawn City!

Lees didn’t explain much, he piloted a helicopter and headed for Dawn City.

More and more powerhouses set off from various parts of this world, heading towards Dawn City.

They used various modes of transportation.

Some ran on foot, moving at great speed.

Some drove vehicles, speeding along the way.

Outside was a snowy landscape, a beautiful sight, and a kind of enjoyment.

The last group piloted helicopters, the fastest mode of transport.

Some of the strong figures in the West were in a rush to reach Dawn City as quickly as possible, or rather, to reach their destination before the appearance of the Snow Beast King. As time passed, some of them were even nearing Dawn City.

This time, when all the top hundred-ranked powerhouses mobilized, the survivors noticed something unusual.

"Our city lord has left; supposedly heading for Dawn City."

"What? Your city lord too? That’s strange, ours too! Just in these few days, there seems to be something significant happening near Dawn City. Do you know if it’s true or not?"

"I’m not sure; I don’t have much information and don’t know exactly what they’re up to!"

"Something significant is happening? What kind of significant event can alert the most powerful group of people? This is too terrifying!"

"I don’t know, we common folks aren’t qualified to know the details. Let’s wait and see."

The people exchanged words, eager to know what was happening. After all, the most powerful individuals from around the world were converging in one place. Even Waldo, who had dominated the globe, was there. What were they planning in the West or what were they trying to deal with?

Opinions were varied, ranging from thoughts of uniting to deal with the source of the snow beasts, completing missions issued by the system, or joining forces against Waldo. These speculations were diverse and not very credible.

However, just when everyone was speculating, someone suddenly stepped forward to reveal the truth.

"So many powerhouses heading towards Dawn City are actually united for one purpose—to deal with the Snow Beast King."

It was widely known that during the period of the snow beast onslaught on the city, the Snow Beast King had appeared, leading the attack on Dawn City.

However, at that time, Waldo was immensely powerful, fearless, and managed to defeat the Snow Beast King, forcing it to retreat and disappear. Our snow beast catastrophe also ended the next day!

According to reliable information, all the strong figures are heading to Dawn City because the Snow Beast King is expected to appear outside Dawn City in the near future.

There is also reliable information suggesting that the Snow Beast King seems to have a crucial connection with reaching level one hundred.

This statement immediately stirred up a commotion, as it was spoken with great seriousness. Moreover, logically speaking, there was nothing flawed in the statement.

What’s more, everyone knew that before heading to Dawn City, the top hundred powerhouses were sharpening their blades and desperately raising their power levels.

They were even willing to threaten their subordinates to gain a large amount of experience points. Obviously, their frantic efforts to boost their strength had a purpose.

However, no matter how much this person spoke, they never provided any evidence. Even though some people believed, the majority remained skeptical. Without evidence, it was likely fabricated.

As a result, at this moment, Dawn City suddenly released a major announcement:

"We possess firsthand information about the Snow Beast King. Those seeking the information need to pay one hundred thousand experience points, plus one thousand evolution points! For all survivors wishing to participate in the hunt for the Snow Beast King, please consider carefully."

"This information can help you better understand the Snow Beast King and find ways to deal with it at critical moments! The price is fair, and it’s on a first-come, first-served basis!"
