Apocalypse - Infinite Resource System
Chapter 483: Controlling the Level 6 Monster Leader
"Great, with this castle here, our safety should be pretty much assured, right!?"
"Hahaha, Black Iron Castle, here I come!"
"Quick, quick, quick, everyone get inside!"
...
Black Iron Castle is very large.
Not only does it look big from the outside, but once you enter, you’ll find that its interior space is much larger than imagined.
It can easily accommodate more than a thousand trial-takers!
And, each trial-taker has a certain amount of free space to move around, so it’s not crowded!
"All trial-takers, quickly reach Black Iron Castle!"
A loud voice echoed both inside and outside the castle.
This was Waldo’s voice.
As time passed, more and more trial-takers entered the Black Iron Castle.
At first, due to the increasing number of people, there were some minor problems.
Luckily, Waldo quickly organized a law enforcement team to maintain order.
Waldo, now, is the undisputed strongest.
And he is the kind that kills without blinking an eye.
No trial-taker dares to defy his will.
Soon, thanks to the appearance of the law enforcement team, there was much less commotion.
Each trial-taker was also assigned to their respective place.
To perfectly utilize the true defensive capabilities of the safe house, each trial-taker needs to fulfill their role and cannot slack off.
...
"It will probably take another day or two for all the trial-takers to arrive."
The Dark Lands are vast, and many trial-takers are far from Black Iron Castle, taking more time to arrive.
During these days, Waldo has not been idle.
To ensure the safety of the trial-takers on their way, he cleared out a batch of wandering monsters around the periphery of Black Iron Castle, acquiring the corresponding super Source stones.
Now, Waldo has enough super Source stones on him to advance to a Level 4 trial-taker.
"It was still the kind that perfectly transformed into an immortal body!"
"Compared to Level 3, advancing to Level 4 is much more difficult."
"Level 3 trial-takers merely transform their bodies into immortal forms, while Level 4 involves transforming their internal organs into immortal organs..."
To be immortal means that even if your heart is destroyed, it can grow back.
Beings at this level have extremely high survival abilities.
They are very hard to kill.
However, the process of advancing from a Level 3 to a Level 4 trial-taker is also a very dangerous one...
Waldo, however, did not hesitate.
Time waits for no one, and he must advance as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to cope with the immense pressure brought by Liuli!
Just as Waldo was preparing to ascend to Level 4, a thousand miles away from Black Iron Castle, there was a majestic and imposing city.
It was a gigantic city capable of accommodating millions of people.
Buildings of bizarre shapes towered into the clouds, like sword blades thrust into the earth! 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Yet, this majestic city was eerily quiet, lifeless.
The air was filled with a chilling, evil aura and an unbearably foul stench.
In the quiet city, many ordinary-looking men, women, elderly, and children were moving about the streets.
They had lifeless eyes, not much different from the zombies Waldo had seen before.
Wandering aimlessly, they remained silent.
These men, women, elderly, and children were all monsters.
Beneath their ordinary appearances hid grotesquely vicious forms.
At that moment, deep in the city, a massive building shook violently.
Huge cracks rapidly formed on its surface and spread quickly.
At the same time, golden light pierced through the walls.
Turning into billions of rays of light, the entire building was riddled with holes!
Boom!
Amidst the loud rumble, the towering building hundreds of meters tall collapsed instantaneously, kicking up a dust serpent a kilometer high.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
...
This sudden event startled countless monsters.
At the same time, amidst the nearly endless dust, Liuli, with an exceptionally handsome appearance and a hint of indifference, was holding a purple-bodied, three-headed, six-armed monster.
This monster was only about the size of a normal human child aged eleven or twelve, and it had only one eye. However, this one eye occupied two-thirds of its head, making it extremely large. Inside this enormous eye, there was chaos at the moment, filled with blood vessels and endless malevolence!
"A Level 6 monster, is just this much after all!" Liuli chuckled lightly. His words and demeanor displayed a confident and self-assured attitude. The half-dead monster he was holding in his hand was the supreme leader of the million monsters in this ancient city, a true Level 6 monster! However, now this Level 6 monster was under his control, its life and death at his whim.
"Roar!" The Level 6 monster leader struggled feebly in his hands. In its solitary eye, there was only fear! The intelligence of a Level 6 monster leader was already quite high, not much less than that of a normal human.
Therefore, it was acutely aware of how terrifying the strength of this three-eyed godly being before it was. It never imagined that such a terrifying entity would appear in the city it had ruled for who knows how many years, and that it would be defeated so quickly by this being.
Now, it had no strength left to resist. Its life was completely in the hands of this young member of the three-eyed godly race.
"Stop your futile resistance, although you are a Level 6 monster, one level higher than me, your strength is ultimately no match for mine. You have been defeated by me, and even your life is in my control. Don’t try to resist, or you will surely die!"
"However, if you obey my orders, you might be reborn anew."
Hearing this, the struggling monster suddenly calmed down. In its dark and chaotic eye, a strange light appeared.
Although he was a monster, fierce and unafraid of death, if there was a chance to survive, he would not easily let it go. After all, no one would willingly clash with their own life!
"Roar..." The deep sound seemed to be inquiring to Liuli. Seeing this, Liuli smiled satisfactorily: "Very good, worthy of being a Level 6 monster leader. Although you are no match for me in terms of combat strength, you do possess wisdom, being able to understand my words, very good indeed!"
"If that’s the case, then things will be easier."
"Summon your minions, and follow me. Today, I intend to annihilate all the trial-takers!" Towards the end, Liuli’s voice grew increasingly cold. If Waldo’s killing of his two subordinates, the sword bones, had angered him and led to the thought of making all trial-takers perish with them, then the recent system announcement solidified his plan to obliterate the trial-takers!
Yes, he too had received the system announcement. Coming from the Three-Eyed Godly Race, he was also looking forward to the rewards of this assessment. In any case, he would not let go of this reward opportunity.
...
Therefore, after receiving the notification, he directly came to this city. It took quite some time, but he finally found the Level 6 monster leader. After carefully lying in wait, he subdued it in one fell swoop. The purpose of doing so was to control a million monsters and use them for his own purposes.
The Dark Lands are incredibly vast, and it would be unknown how long it would take to find all the trial-takers by himself...
But with millions of monsters at his command, it would be a different story...
With so many monsters, even if they had to dig three feet into the ground of the entire Dark Lands, it would not be a problem.
