598: Chapter 646 Arrival at Civilization Game!

[Congratulations to the Blue Star Civilization for achieving final victory!]

[All participants of the Blue Star Civilization have obtained the qualification to enter the 'Civilization Game.']

[Rewards...]

[Blue Star Civilization rewards...]

For the Blue Star Civilization...

Now, the rewards from the 'Game' can hardly stir much emotion in them.

After all, participants from the Five God-level Civilizations have already descended upon Blue Star.

The knowledge they impart is enough to guide the Blue Star Civilization step by step toward becoming a God-level Civilization.

Therefore, the 'Game' rewards are now more or less dispensable.

What people are concerned about now is whether An Ke can ultimately clear the game.

Whether this Known Universe can escape the fate of collapsing back into a singularity.

If it ultimately cannot be avoided, it would be useless even if the Blue Star Civilization becomes a God-level Civilization now.

Once the universe perishes, everything will lose its meaning.

However, this time's reward did surprise An Ke a little.

He hadn't expected the reward to be so generous.

It actually raised his biological level to 67.

The cosmic origin power he can master is now 67.63%.

Come to think of it, it makes sense.

After all, the destination is the final stage of the 'Game'.

Having come this far, how could the rewards not be generous?

The 'Game Announcement' continued:

[Other civilization domains are being destroyed...]

As the 'Game' announcement was issued...

The domains of other civilizations previously connected to Blue Star's game domain were being destroyed.

It was destruction in the truest sense, not just the closure of a teleportation gate.

From this moment on...

In the area of the 99th Realm, only Blue Star Civilization's 'Game' domain remained.

[Destruction successful!]

[The Civilization Game domain will open one hour later.]

...

Civilization Game domain.

108 mansions are distributed across different areas of the domain.

However, at its center, there is a vast circular area.

That is the arena where participants battle.

And right at the center of the circular area, a tall tower stands.

The roar of abyssal behemoths occasionally emanates from the tower, instilling deep-seated terror.

This tower is the 'Ascension Peak'.

At this moment, a great battle was erupting at the foot of Ascension Peak.

Participants from various mansions were clashing here.

For the participants of the 108 mansions, this was already a familiar scene.

Although the 'Game's rule is that whoever obtains the Holy Grail atop Ascension Peak is the winner...

Participants do not need to kill each other.

But for these high-ranking participants, friction is inevitable.

Even if there is no personal enmity between them...

Sometimes, they will fight fiercely over coveting each other's 'cores'.

Just then, an announcement echoed across the entire continent from the sky above:

[The 99th Mansion will welcome a new civilization.]

[Blue Star Civilization, comprehensive strength evaluation: F-grade.]

That's right! An Ke had once again chosen to conceal himself.

Previously, after leaping to level 65...

An Ke was extremely curious about what evaluation his strength would receive if it could be detected by the 'Game'.

So, he completely released his concealment.

After learning the evaluation, An Ke re-concealed his strength.

...

At the foot of Ascension Peak...

The participants from several civilizations who had been fighting all stopped, retreating to safe distances and confronting each other.

That's how battles are here.

They fight when they say they will, and stop when they say they won't.

Unless there is a feud of life and death between two parties, no one fights to the death.

Over the long, slow passage of time...

Many participants gradually became indifferent.

Since it's so difficult to reach the summit of Ascension Peak and clear the game...

Might as well treat this place as a new life and live well.

Believe it or not, participants with this mindset make up a very large proportion.

These people started focusing on health preservation, stopped fighting, and simply sought pleasure within the 'Game'.

Thus, they gradually became the 'commoners' within the mansions.

...

Back to the main topic.

At the foot of Ascension Peak...

The participants from various civilizations who had pulled back listened to the announcement, their expressions turning to surprise.

"An F-grade comprehensive strength evaluation participant?"

"That weak?"

"How did someone so weak obtain the qualification to enter the Civilization Game?"

Every participant present had experienced the previous stages of the game.

They clearly knew that to reach this step...

One must emerge from a sea of blood and mountains of corpses.

Precisely because of this, the civilization participants who finally arrived here were all powerful, the elites of their respective domains.

Now, with the sudden appearance of an F-grade civilization, they were naturally bewildered.

"Relying on luck?"

"It doesn't even require luck, just being stronger than the other participants."

"It seems the quality of participants from the 99th Realm this time isn't high!"

"Such quality can already be described as abysmal."

"Hahahaha, Ai Li, congratulations to your 99th Mansion for gaining a new civilization. It might boost your mansion's ranking, otherwise, you'll keep sinking to the bottom."

A participant who looked strikingly like Ultraman sneered.

Hearing this, the other participants around also laughed.

The participant called Ai Li resembled a giant spider.

He had eight slender legs on his back, some parts covered in fine hair, and pitch-black eyes.

Ai Li gritted his teeth; it was obvious everyone present was humiliating him.

"The 99th Realm is the 99th Realm, and I am me!"

"I am the number one under the Demigods!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mocking from the opposite side grew louder.

"Number one under the Demigods?"

"Ai Li, did you give yourself that title?"

"Come on! Since you're the number one under the Demigods, let's all test your capabilities together!"

"Test then perish!"

Ai Li fixed his numerous eyes on the other participants around him.

"Lock-on complete!"

The next second, threads shot out from under the fine hair on his body.

The threads spread out like a giant net, covering the sky and earth.

But in the next instant, a group of enormous, mountain-like wooden statue deities rose from the ground.

These deities were not any gods recognized by humans, nor any deities from the West.

They possessed countless hands, all attacking Ai Li.

"Ai Li, today the 99th Mansion will lose a high-ranking participant!!"

"..."

The battle lasted for about an hour.

Accompanied by earth-shaking tremors...

Ai Li lay in a deep crater.

He was in a wretched state, dripping with green blood, with several of his limbs and back legs broken.

Around him, participants stood in the air above the crater, all looking down at Ai Li with mockery.

One of them said:

"Tsk tsk tsk! Weren't you the number one under the Demigods?"

"Ai Li, there are no Demigods here, so why are you lying on the ground?"

In the crater, although the defiance remained in Ai Li's eyes...

He could no longer move.

Forget moving, he couldn't even muster a retort.

"Sigh! How boring!"

"Let's kill him and split his 'core'."

"Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

"Although the 99th Mansion is second to last in ranking, they still have a Demigod overseeing it."

"Killing Ai Li wouldn't be easy to explain."

"What's there to fear? That Demigod from the 99th Mansion hasn't appeared for years; he might already be dead."

"Otherwise, why would the 99th Mansion's ranking be so low?"

"Anyway, we'll know if we try, won't we?"

"At most, if the Demigod shows up later, we can just apologize."

"..."

As they were speaking, a teleportation channel suddenly began to materialize in their midst.
