Chapter 1159
In the following days, Xiao Feng kept waiting for the Primordial Ancestor of the human race to summon him, hoping Qian Sha's words would come true.
But one day passed, two days passed, three days passed……
The Primordial Ancestor never appeared.
He couldn't help thinking secretly, maybe he would only come to find him after the event ended.
So he patiently waited, building up his anticipation, and when the time came he would have a blast!
For several days straight, Xiao Feng and his teammates ran around, aimlessly searching for ancient treasures and guardian god cards.
High-quality ancient treasures were hard to come by; almost all were Epic or lower.
Legendary quality was already extremely rare, and Mythic ones were nowhere to be found.
Moreover, life-extending items were also very rare; he never encountered any more, so he kept his 10 revival chances.
On the other hand, after eating some rare, Epic-tier treasures, Xiao Feng's basic stats jumped significantly.
His HP was close to 850 billion, attack near 500 million, and defense over 300 million.
These stats were explosive, but compared to those robots, they were actually just average.
Without realizing it, the preseason was about to end, and the tense, thrilling finals were imminent.
That day, at 21:00 on the 20th day of the Ancient World, the sky grew dim, about to enter night.
Xiao Feng and his teammates came to the area near the center of the world map, on a map called Snow Cloud Mountain.
For miles around, everything was frozen in ice, snow white and dazzlingly beautiful. No ancient creatures lived here, and players rarely came to play.
Checking the time, Xiao Feng and his teammates said, "About time; let's wait here for the finals to begin."
Dun Dun rubbed his little hands, a bit excited, and said, "Senior Xiao Feng, are you about to unleash Chaos Ice River? A hundred million kills will be credited right away!"
Xiao Feng smiled and shook his head: "Not until tomorrow. I think people are still scattered now; after the first day's circle shrinks, density will rise, and then starting the sweep will be more beneficial."
Even thinking with your butt, you know that on the first day of the finals, 99.99% of teams will be very cautious, trying to stay still and observe other teams' situations.
In this trial, the biggest winner is the one who survives to the end; next is the one who kills the most enemies.
And for those ordinary teams, since they can neither survive to the end nor kill the most, all they can do is stay alive a few days longer and kill a few more easy enemy squads.
Thus they will inevitably be very low-key, hiding tightly, only revealing themselves to fight when a weak team passes by!
Of course, the safe zone map will keep shrinking; unless one starts by camping in the final circle, everyone will have to run.
"When Xiao Feng casts his spell, he must not be disturbed; anyway his range is large enough, so we can just stay in this uninhabited area and unleash his ultimate." Shen Di proposed.
"Hmm, but I might be instantly killed by reflected damage; I still need the priest's buff, otherwise I'd die from the first hit and not kill enough enemies." Xiao Feng thought of a key point.
As long as No. 9 is still alive, his ultimate will definitely kill himself.
In Chaos Ice River, the first 5 seconds of cooling have no damage; after the 5-second chant ends, the 10-second damage period begins.
This is a channeled skill, not an instant-cast. If he gets reflected-killed in the first second, the damage for the following 9 seconds will be interrupted and cannot be released.
"Let's calculate the damage." Xing Yun Miao said.
"Well, on the first day tomorrow, I plan to use a somewhat ordinary guardian god, with the main card being the Great Whale, plus two HP cards, roughly boosting attack by 20%. With the Great Whale card, you can also use the Life Devour skill to kill a few more." Xiao Feng said.
His wish to collect 30 God-King cards wasn't fulfilled; he had already used a few earlier, and now he only has 13 God-King cards.
Xing Yun Miao nodded slightly and began calculating.
"Then your attack is 600 million; with buffs from me and Old Li, it can go over 1 billion. Chaos Ice River's per-second coefficient is 200%, ignoring damage reduction 65%, ignoring defense 50%, crit rate 100%, crit damage 170%, willpower amplification 100%, talent amplification 10000x......"
Chaos Ice River is a magic skill; the Beast Bone Infinite Ring's effect that boosts source attribute skill damage by 40% cannot be triggered.
So the damage should be……
"A normal player's damage reduction should be around 95; even if it's 130%, you'd still pierce through more than half. Compared to your attack, defense can be ignored; your damage can basically be confirmed as over 50 trillion!" Xing Yun Miao said.
At least 50 trillion; even if No. 1 borrowed Xiao Feng's 100x HP, it would still be in peril!
Moreover, No. 1 would never recklessly use his second talent if he hasn't seen an enemy; so unless someone activates invincibility, he'll basically die!
Everything is ready; just waiting for the finals to begin!
In the last three hours of the preseason, the entire Ancient World fell silent.
Xiao Feng used the friend function to chat with cross-server friends, asking them which area they planned to fight in.
Shen Chuo's idea was to first see how the circle shrinks, wanting to hold the edge of the circle to hunt those who run in from outside.
Han Zichen's idea was to take the initiative, kill as many enemies as possible, stack up the kill count a bit, and get a basic ranking.
Congcong's idea was defensive; the plant civilization is naturally good at defense, find a spot to settle, and swiftly ambush anyone who passes by.
Qian Sha's plan was more casual; this guy only aims for first place, not second. He basically won't go around fighting; only when he encounters robots from Zu Jian Xing will he act to oppose them, slaughtering a few.
At other times, it's all about preserving life first, just wanting to survive to the end, then have a final showdown.
Xiao Feng also sent a message to No. 17 Mech Soldier, wanting to inquire about the plan of Zu Jian Xing.
However, since it's a major matter, this time No. 17 didn't dare be an insider, fearing his brothers would tear him apart, so he revealed nothing.
Gradually, the time came to 00:00.
At the moment of the turning point, system information rang out in Tian Kong.
【The preseason of the Ancient World trial has ended, the finals officially begin!】
【Notice: Effective immediately, all resurrection-type skills become invalid; all resurrection-type talents can trigger at most 10 times, each trigger additionally reducing the user's attributes by 10%, and after 10 times the user dies completely.】
【All trial participants who have exhausted their lives will be forcibly sent away from the Ancient World; they can use the spectating function to continue watching their teammates' battles, but cannot communicate.】
【The safe zone map for the first day has been announced; if anyone remains outside the safe zone after 24 hours, they will die instantly and have their revival count cleared—please note to relocate!】
【The longer you survive and the more enemies you kill, the richer the rewards—strive to survive until the very last moment!】
The system's announcement pulled back the curtain on the finals.
From now on, every life becomes incredibly precious!
"Everyone, look at the map!"
Xiao Feng and the others opened the map.
The safe map's first nine days were reset once each day, and only on the last day did it begin to shrink frequently.
The safe map on the first day was still large, a circle with a diameter of 200,000 kilometers.
However, placed on the large map with an east‑west straight‑line length of 600,000 kilometers, it was still a bit small; people far away had to hurry, otherwise when the final shrinking time came they wouldn't even have time to run.
Seeing this big circle, Xiao Feng couldn't help but reveal a wicked smile.
"200,000 kilometers, just perfect! My skill radius is exactly 100,000 kilometers; as long as I run to the center position, isn't it just wanton slaughter?"
Moreover, the position of this "center" is quite close to his current coordinates—only less than 5,000 kilometers away!
