Apocalypse - Infinite Resource System
Chapter 338: System rewards
Later, as Waldo upgraded to level one hundred, just moments later, the global power ranking list was updated at this very moment.
Without a doubt, Waldo’s first position remained unshaken.
Even for a long time to come, no one could challenge that.
However, soon, as people looked at the rankings below, many faces changed drastically.
Because they found, under Waldo’s name, it was no longer ’Lees’.
The name ’Lees’ was gone!
Moreover, in the top twenty, all the familiar names disappeared, replaced by relatively unfamiliar ones.
Even among the top one hundred.
More than half of the familiar names vanished.
In their place were relatively unfamiliar names.
In an instant, everyone was stunned, having a surreal feeling as if they were dreaming, unable to believe what they were seeing.
"How could the rankings change so drastically this time? Those people just vanished from the rankings, why? This is unbelievable!"
Then, suddenly, they widened their eyes.
Because at this moment, they thought of an almost impossible possibility!
"That is, those who disappeared, are dead!"
"Only this situation could explain such a significant change."
"But how is this possible?"
"My goodness, could Lees and the others have really died in battle?"
"I don’t believe it! Although the Snow Beast King is powerful, it’s impossible for it to kill so many people like this!"
"That’s right! Especially Lees, his strength is quite terrifying, and he can even face the Snow Beast alone. Others might have died accidentally in battle, but Lees definitely wouldn’t have!"
Absolutely, even if the Snow Beast King is formidable, it’s impossible to kill off more than half of the super strong!
Everyone was filled with puzzlement.
Moreover, some speculated that perhaps an unexpected situation occurred midway.
Amidst various speculations, someone leaked some information.
There were no unexpected incidents. The truth is, those strong individuals, including Lees, had nothing to do with the Snow Beast King. It wasn’t someone else who killed them, it was Waldo!
Whether you believe it or not, I saw it with my own eyes. Waldo is terrifying, his strength is unmatched, crushing everything, and anyone who opposes him is killed. There is simply no one who can rival him.
Neither Lees nor the Snow Beast King were his match!
Both were killed by Waldo alone, and dozens of other major city lords also died at Waldo’s hands.
However, Waldo had no choice but to do this.
Initially, Waldo had no intention of dealing with them. However, others joined forces to ambush Waldo, a scheme that Waldo discovered.
Waldo broke through with his formidable strength and killed them all!
After saying these words, the person tried to prove that they were not lying.
They even released many photos.
The photos were somewhat blurry and taken from a distant place.
Moreover, it was evident that the person was nervous when taking the photos.
Although the photos were somewhat blurry, you could still see some scenes from the battle.
These photos lent considerable credibility to the person’s account.
Soon, as various pieces of information kept piling up, more and more people began to believe this account.
Because an increasing amount of evidence suggested that Waldo had indeed gone on a killing spree, killing off a large portion of the survivors.
Regardless of his infamous reputation or anything else, Waldo simply wasn’t interested.
Shortly after, he returned to Dawn City.
His speed increased.
Although his ability to fly remained at the same level as before,
his speed had increased by at least half.
"Is this what level one hundred is like? It feels very peculiar! A very strange feeling indeed."
Waldo thought to himself.
Soon, he returned to the Lord’s Mansion.
Calvert, Silva, and others had been waiting for a long time.
"Congratulations, Lord, on successfully reaching level one hundred. It is indeed a blessing earned from the past lives of tens of thousands of survivors in Dawn City! Now, the Lord has become the world’s only level one hundred powerhouse, invincible in the world. We only hope that in the future, the Lord will become even more powerful, and Dawn City will grow stronger as well."
Calvert was all smiles, offering praises repeatedly.
They had already learned the news of Waldo breaking through to level one hundred.
Although they were mentally prepared and knew that Waldo would undoubtedly advance to level one hundred without any major problems, they still worried about unexpected events.
After all, Lees was formidable.
Moreover, there were many level ninety-nine powerhouses.
The strength of these people should not be underestimated; they were formidable competitors.
If they joined forces, Waldo would be in a difficult position.
There might even be problems in the end.
Fortunately, Waldo ultimately obtained the King’s Source Stones and successfully broke through to level one hundred.
While Calvert, Silva, and the others were happy, they also felt a sense of relief.
Waldo nodded, exchanged a few words with the two with a smile, and got a brief understanding of recent events in Dawn City. Everything in Dawn City seemed normal, which reassured him.
With these two helping manage the affairs of Dawn City, he felt much more at ease.
Soon, Waldo ended his conversation with the two and swiftly arrived at the side of the two girls, Alanna and Helen.
Upon entering the room, Alanna looked at Waldo with a resentful expression.
"You finally decided to come back? Do you know how long we’ve been waiting for you? You’ve kept us waiting for so long out there."
Although she said this while blaming Waldo, in reality, she couldn’t wait and quickly approached Waldo for an examination.
Seeing that Waldo was truly unharmed, she let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness you’re okay. Otherwise, I wouldn’t easily forgive you!"
Helen chimed in, "That’s right! Thank goodness nothing happened. If something had happened to you, we wouldn’t know what to do!"
Waldo smiled.
"What could possibly happen to me? There’s no one in this world who can threaten me yet! Haha, who knows, maybe there never will be in the future!"
But to be honest, this time was indeed very dangerous.
"If I hadn’t been alert and sent a clone ahead to gather information, maybe I would have been in serious trouble!"
As he spoke, Waldo felt a lingering fear.
Recalling the previous events.
Indeed, if he hadn’t gathered intelligence in advance, he would have definitely fallen into the enemy’s trap and been ambushed.
Even if he didn’t die, he would have been severely injured.
Then, when Lees and the others arrived, he would have been on the verge of death.
So, Waldo was somewhat grateful for the decision he had made back then.
Upon hearing this, the two girls widened their eyes.
"What exactly happened? If even you found it perilous, then it must have been extremely dangerous!"
The two girls were a bit worried and curious.
Waldo initially didn’t want to say much.
However, he couldn’t resist the persistent inquiries from the two girls.
In the end, he recounted the scene at that time.
Waldo was skilled at storytelling, and he vividly described the events, captivating them with an enthralling tale.
The storyline was filled with twists and turns, drawing the two girls into the tale. When Waldo finished speaking, the two girls reacted.
So, Waldo had gone through all of these events.
Helen couldn’t help but comment, "Those so-called city lords, they’re quite devious, aren’t they? Luckily, you were prepared, otherwise, we might not have seen you again."
"I knew something was amiss with your demeanor earlier. It turns out it was because of this!"
"I kept saying you should be more cautious. It looks like being cautious was the right call. Just being reckless would have surely led to problems in the end."
Alanna added, "From now on, we should be careful in everything."
Faced with the chatter of the two girls, what could Waldo do? He couldn’t do anything.
He also didn’t dare to defy the wishes of the two girls, so he could only nod in agreement.
In the end, he said, ’You can rest easy. With my strength, I’m not afraid of however many enemies come my way. Whether it’s an ambush or a siege, they’ll all die in large numbers!’
Waldo was extremely confident.
In the eyes of the entire world, perhaps only he possessed such confidence.
Of course, no one expressed doubt because Waldo truly had the power to back up his words.
He was now invincible.
In the eyes of many, he had become an unbeatable legend.
Waldo continued, "In this world, there’s no one who can threaten you anymore. Because your man is already invincible, hahaha."
The two girls looked at him, both smiling, and felt extremely happy.
They had witnessed Waldo’s unwavering determination and his journey to this day, feeling even happier than anyone else. Upon hearing Waldo’s words, they felt a warm glow inside.
A new day, a fresh start.
Waldo got dressed and stepped outside. The scenery was still covered in a blanket of white, but the heavy snow had stopped, and the sun was rising.
At that moment, Waldo suddenly heard a system notification in his mind.
[Survivor Waldo, congratulations on reaching level one hundred. The rewards from the system have been delivered to your backpack. Please check and acknowledge!]
Waldo looked slightly surprised.
There are rewards too?
Waldo felt a surge of happiness.
This was unexpected, a pleasant surprise.
Considering he was the first to reach level one hundred, the rewards shouldn’t be too shabby.
Waldo then accessed his backpack and found the items the system had rewarded him.
