66: Chapter 66 Permanent Server Merge! Wolf Hunter Alliance!

[Unique Mythical Item: Divinity Fragment 1/5]

Lu Yuan stared fixedly at the lines of text on the screen, his eyes wide as saucers.

He rubbed his eyes and leaned in to carefully count the long string of zeros following the price.

Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands...

A full eight nines!

A sky-high price of nearly one hundred million hunting points!

"What the hell is this thing?"

He couldn't help but curse, pointing at the irregularly shaped crystal emitting a dark golden light on the screen, his face full of disbelief.

"There's not even an item description, just a bunch of question marks, and you dare to sell it for nearly one hundred million hunting points?!"

"Is this black market specifically designed to rob people?!"

You have to know that in this unlucky game, killing ordinary monsters doesn't drop any hunting points.

Only by killing players or completing mythical-level hidden tasks, like severely damaging the Leviathan, will the system issue hunting point rewards.

He had just fought for his life in Atlantis, slaughtering thousands of red-named thugs, plus defeating the Abyss Lord and the Superbrain above his level, and the total hunting points he had only amounted to over twenty thousand.

And this thing actually costs one hundred million!

Lu Yuan's brain began to run at high speed.

One hundred million hunting points.

If calculated purely by hunting players, one point per head, this would mean he would have to slaughter a full one hundred million living people!

Across the entire server right now, there probably aren't even one hundred million survivors for him to kill.

Furthermore, although Lu Yuan was decisive in killing and never soft-hearted towards enemies.

At his core, he was still a human, not some insane perverted murderer who killed everyone he saw.

He couldn't bring himself to wipe out all the ordinary white-named players on the server just to scrape together hunting points.

Xia Li watched Lu Yuan's shifting expression and curiously leaned over to take a look.

When she saw that astronomical number, she also gasped, her beautiful face filled with shock.

"Divinity Fragment..."

Xia Li whispered the name, her delicate brows slightly furrowed.

Although she didn't know what this thing was actually used for, it could appear in a black market that only opened after achieving mythical-level accomplishments, and dared to set such a desperate price, it was definitely extraordinary.

Her gaze fell on the progress bar suffix, and she softly analyzed: "One-fifth? It seems we need to collect five fragments."

"Moreover, the name of this item is Divinity Fragment."

Xia Li's breathing suddenly became a bit rapid, and a look of disbelief flashed in her beautiful eyes, "Divinity... could it be that after collecting five, one can become a god?!"

"Become a god?"

Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly let out a cold laugh, his laughter tinged with a chilling coldness.

"If becoming a god requires me to personally slaughter one hundred million of my own kind."

"Then the moment I step onto the throne of gods, how would I be any different from those devils who harm lives?"

He stared fixedly at the crystal emitting dark golden light on the screen, his eyes becoming incomparably deep and terrifying.

"Or rather..."

"The so-called [Becoming a God] in this damn game is meant to make us kill each other, using the flesh and blood of our own kind to pave the way, ultimately transforming into those high and mighty evil gods who treat humans as playthings?!"

Hearing Lu Yuan's analysis, Xia Li trembled all over.

She felt a chill shoot from the soles of her feet straight to her crown, and even her breathing stalled.

This was the deepest, darkest malice of this survival game!

Silence hung like a giant rock, making it hard for both of them to breathe.

A full three seconds passed.

Above the dome of the Service Area hall, a deafening system air-raid siren suddenly sounded.

[Ding! The server-wide twenty-four-hour peaceful rest period is about to end!]

[The peaceful Service Area will be permanently closed in one hour!]

[New stage: Endless Bloody Wilderness, about to officially begin!]

[System Announcement: To accelerate game progress, the next stage will activate the [Permanent District Merger] mode!]

[Twenty adjacent districts will be permanently merged into one Super District! The original district barriers will be completely broken!]

[Original Districts C-1 to C-20 are officially merged into Super C1 District!]

[Original Districts C-61 to C-80 are officially merged into Super District C4!]

[Good luck to everyone!]

A glaring one-hour countdown appeared in mid-air, and the giant metal gate leading to the new highway was slowly rising.

Lu Yuan and Xia Li looked at each other.

C-1 and C-72 were too far apart.

This meant that in one hour, with the start of the new stage, they would be completely transported to two completely unrelated Super Districts.

Xia Li bit her red lips, a flash of reluctance in her eyes.

Although they hadn't spent much time together, the life-and-death moments they had shared had already left an indelible mark in her heart for this man.

"We have to separate," Xia Li said softly, her voice tinged with a rare sense of dejection.

"Will we... meet again?"

Lu Yuan looked at this female warrior who had shed her icy disguise, and smiled slightly.

"We definitely will."

He reached out, something he rarely did, and ruffled Xia Li's soft hair.

"Stay alive."

Feeling the warmth from the top of her head, Xia Li was stunned for a moment.

Then she beamed and nodded vigorously.

"Mm, you too."

But as soon as she finished speaking, Xia Li shook her head, annoyed.

"Forget it, you're such a perverted murderer and a schemer, how could you possibly die."

Lu Yuan laughed out loud.

He didn't say anything more, turned around, and strode towards the Red Wolf Tank.

With his back to Xia Li, he waved his hand nonchalantly.

Xia Li stood quietly in place, watching the man's broad back.

Her heartbeat skipped a beat at this moment.

She knew that her heart, which had been frozen for twenty years, had completely fallen.

...

One hour later.

"Rumble!"

The countdown hit zero, and the gate of the Service Area opened completely.

Thousands of combat vehicles, like beasts released from cages, roared onto the brand new endless highway.

Lu Yuan was driving the massive blood-red heavy tank, just as he drove into the wilderness map belonging to Super District C4.

Before he could even observe the surrounding environment.

The in-car system's private message channel suddenly flashed frantically, the "beep beep beep" notification sound was almost exploding.

Lu Yuan opened it casually.

Good heavens, dozens of unread messages, all sent by Lin Zihao!

The latest message was from ten seconds ago, filled with deep anxiety between the lines.

"Boss!!! You're finally online!!!"

Lu Yuan frowned and immediately replied.

"I just left the peaceful zone, are you guys okay?"

"It seems we were in different special spaces before, and messages couldn't be sent."

Just two seconds after the message was sent, Lin Zihao's voice call popped up urgently.

As soon as the call connected, Lin Zihao's hoarse voice, filled with anticipation and anxiety, rang out.

"Boss! Have you entered the new stage now? Are you in Super District C4?!"

Lu Yuan leaned back in his seat and replied indifferently.

"Just entered Super District C4, why?"

Hearing Lu Yuan confirm they were in the same district, the weight on Lin Zihao's heart seemed to finally lift by more than half, but his voice immediately carried a sobbing tone.

"Great... Boss, something big happened! We've been targeted!"

"Just as this new stage started, the other nineteen districts in our Super District C4 joined forces to form a super guild called the [Wolf Hunter Alliance]!"

"They gathered tens of thousands of armed combat vehicles and blocked all resource points and intersections."

Lin Zihao's voice was shaking.

"Their only goal is to conduct indiscriminate slaughter on players from our C-72 District!"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan's eyes instantly turned cold.

The [perverted murderer] title above his head, which exuded a bloody aura, seemed to become even more scarlet and dazzling at this moment.

Wolf Hunter Alliance?

Targeting C-72 District?

Lu Yuan leaned back in the large leather seat, not only without any panic but instead slowly hooked his lips into a cruel, cold smile.

He was just wondering where to scrape together those [99999999] hunting points.

Aren't these green leeks just washing their necks and delivering themselves to his door?
