Rover clenched his fist. The chain squeezed the last Wraith in Block C until it burst apart, and then he let out a long breath of relief. His gaze fell on the notification panel as he began to check his gains.
[Unassigned free attribute points: 82.5]
[Omnipotent Points: 1,720]
Along with that was a huge amount of in-game currency. Exactly how much, he did not know, because he had transferred almost all of it to Nanoe.
Because in this battle, the souls only dropped in-game currency and no items, he did not have any other gains.
He thought for a moment, then decided to distribute points to Nanoe and Selina, 20 points each, while he kept 40.5 points for himself.
"System, add 15 points to [Physique] and 25 points to [Spirit]."
[Ding! Points added successfully.]
[Rover: Physique 54 | Spirit 89]
[Nanoe: Physique 15 | Spirit 27]
[Selina: Physique 27 (+4) | Spirit 15]
Rover nodded lightly, feeling that the overall strength of himself and his two women had increased by a lot. But he knew this still was not enough.
So he made a decision, which was to go to another Block.
He took a deep breath and voiced his decision. Nanoe and Selina both agreed.
Nanoe: "With the current situation, maybe we are already very strong, but Selina and I still cannot deal with souls. We can only rely on you."
Selina also nodded. "That's right. That's a bit risky. Even though we've cleared all the monsters in this Block, that doesn't mean we're invincible."
"And also..." Selina frowned, rubbing her chin. "Master, almost all the Survivors in our Block have been killed."
Rover heard that and let out a sigh.
This phase was too bizarre. Survivors who could not even handle zombies yet were now forced to face soul-type monsters that took no physical damage.
Because of that, almost all the Survivors in this Block had been wiped out, with only a few remaining.
Of course, during the process of killing souls, he also encountered a few Survivors, but their attitudes were completely different from Ryu's, quite friendly instead.
But that also made sense. He was the only person in this Block who could kill souls. Those Survivors naturally had to thank him, and there was no reason for them to envy him.
Of course, there would also be people who envied him, but between envy and living, everyone would definitely choose survival first.
At this moment, Rover also realized that what Dark Lord said was right. Everyone had to cooperate, only then could they survive.
If only you were left alive, then at that point, you would not be far from death either.
Rover thought for a moment, then decided to say, "We go to Block B first. If we run into too many strange things, then we retreat. No need to force a fight, understood?"
Nanoe and Selina nodded. They also did not want to drag Rover down, but they wanted to help him.
So what they did was follow behind, pick up items, and keep watch for other Survivors for him, that was all.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Rover sensed a surge of malice aimed at him. His gaze shifted toward the stairwell leading down to the ground floor.
There were three people there, a woman and two young men.
Rover frowned. He could sense that they were not weak. On top of that, they came with hostility, making him even more vigilant.
"Prepare for battle," Rover said.
Even without Rover's warning, Nanoe and Selina had already realized the other side did not come with good intentions.
The leading young man had blond hair. With both hands in his pockets, he looked at Rover and his women with eyes full of disdain.
There was no lust in that gaze like other men had when looking at Nanoe and Selina, only a thick contempt and irritation.
The two people behind him merely crossed their arms, smiling as if they were about to watch something very interesting.
The blond man frowned and said, "Leave everything in your backpack behind, and you can get lost."
Rover frowned as well. He guessed the other side was very likely a level 2 Survivor, so that young man being this arrogant was normal enough.
He smiled and said, "What if I don't?"
The chain wrapped around his wrist could launch at that blond youth at any time, and Nanoe and Selina also gripped their weapons tightly.
The blond youth snorted with laughter. "Hahaha... where do you get that confidence from? From killing those trash souls? Or..."
At that moment, the youth lifted his hand, and countless currents of wind gathered together, forming a wind sphere. Along with it came the continuous shriek of wind spiraling into the sphere's core, making even Rover flinch.
He smiled and said, "Or are you confident that your ability can defeat me?"
Rover frowned. The skill [Intuition] was telling him that wind sphere was terrifying. If it hit him, it was very likely he would be badly injured.
"Nick! You don't need to tease him." The woman behind him laughed. "Leave him for me. You can take those two women."
"Huh!" The man behind Nick sneered. "I don't need them either. They look pretty, sure, but they're probably used goods. I don't need second-hand stuff."
Nanoe and Selina frowned, but they understood clearly... at this moment, they could not act recklessly.
Nick smiled and said, "Laura, Damon, this prey is mine."
Damon clicked his tongue. "Tch! I don't want to fight you for it, I just can't swallow this anger. They killed almost all the wraiths."
"Hehehe..." Laura laughed. "Even if you can't swallow it, so what? What can you do?"
"Motherfucker!" Damon snapped. "Laura, if you keep talking to me like that, don't blame me when I break all your teeth."
"Hahaha... is that so? You scare me, hahahaha..."
Nick frowned, his cold voice ringing out. "Enough, you two. Supplies split evenly. I just want to have a little fun."
Laura laughed. "Really? Then you'd better be careful. I want that young man intact."
"Huh!" Nick snorted in disdain, his gaze locking onto Rover. "Put out all the supplies you have. I won't say it a third time."
Rover frowned. The skill [Intuition] immediately activated, and in his heart, he understood even more.
'Looks like... this skill is more versatile than I thought.' he thought to himself.
Rover said softly, "Nanoe, Selina, coordinate and attack him. Stay away from his hands, don't give him time to use his hands much."
Nanoe and Selina seemed to understand what Rover wanted to do and nodded at once.
Damon and Laura stepped back. They did not want to interfere with Nick's fun.
Seeing Rover, Nanoe, and Selina all enter a ready-to-fight stance, Nick said indifferently, "Is this your answer? You should know that... I once took first place in the second round."
Rover took a deep breath, his heart turning cold.
The other side was not only a high-level Survivor, he had even become one of the "Chosen."
"You're giving me a choice?" Rover laughed, shaking his head. "Basically... the moment you showed me your power, you already didn't intend to let me live, right?"
Hearing that, a rare smile of excitement appeared on Nick's indifferent face. "Very smart. You're right. Robbing supplies is secondary. In truth, I want to eliminate you."
Rover did not find that strange. On the contrary, he felt that was what made sense.
One mountain could not have two tigers, and one kingdom could not have two kings at the same time.
Nick had already regarded himself as the king of this Block. Seeing Rover's combat strength, he... would definitely not let Rover off.
Rover shrugged and said, "Then... I've got nothing more to say. But..."
He suddenly thrust the arm wrapped in chains toward Nick and frowned. "Just because you're a higher-level Survivor doesn't mean I'm guaranteed to lose."
"Idiot!" Nick sneered, his hand gripping the wind sphere, about to swing it out, when suddenly...
In just one second, Selina suddenly appeared right in front of Nick.
Nick's eyes widened as he saw the sword tip, wrapped in a layer of light, thrusting toward him at a terrifying speed. But in the next moment, he broke into a slightly crazed smile and muttered, "Now this is interesting!"
