569 Chapter 589, system upgrade
The two gangs, one chasing and the other fleeing, soon left Canglan city’s stronghold.
While they were chasing, Meng Jingtian once again eliminated the remaining gang. There were only three gangs left in the competition venue, Dragon Soul, the world, and Canglan City.
In the end, the world was forced into a desperate situation by Dragon Soul. The two gangs fought with their backs to the wall, and Dragon Soul ended up winning.
Just as the outcome of the battle between the two gangs had just been decided and dragon soul was left with nearly 200 gang members and 300 NPC soldiers, Meng Jingtian, Feng Chenghao, Zhao Lin, and the others appeared.
There were only a dozen or so people and they were not together with the main force of Canglan City. However, when they saw Meng Jingtian who appeared first, the Dragon Soul Gang Leader’s heart jumped and he thought to himself, this is bad!
Another round of curses came from his heart. He did not know what was wrong with this Sun Yuxiao. Could it be that he had other better plans?
This time, it could be considered as personally delivering the victory to Canglan City.
Previously, if the two gangs worked together, there might still be a chance.
“Looks like dragon soul is indeed a notch above the world. Congratulations, you’ve obtained second place!”Meng Jingtian looked at the remaining remnants of Dragon Soul and smiled.
“Are you that confident?”Although he knew that Canglan city would definitely win with Meng Jingtian around, Dragon Soul gang leader still asked with some displeasure.
“Of course, to be fair, I still won’t participate in the final battle between your societies,”Meng Jingtian said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of Canglan city’s members and… even more NPC soldiers suddenly appeared around him.
Among the Canglan City’s NPC soldiers, a small portion of them wore golden armor and held silver spears in their hands. They looked like generals among soldiers.
As for their attributes, they were naturally stronger than ordinary NPC soldiers.
These were the soldiers produced by the camp after reaching level 5.
As for ordinary NPC soldiers, there were close to 10,000 of them.
During the period when Dragon Soul and the world were fighting each other, Meng Jingtian occupied the stronghold and provided Canglan City with NPC soldiers to size up.
Hearing Meng Jingtian’s words, the face of the Dragon Soul Gang Leader turned green.
F * CK You, fair! According to the gang, a one-on-one fight was indeed fair. Meng Jingtian, who had destroyed the balance of power, even automatically withdrew from the battle!
But F * CK, based on the number of people, it was simply too unfair, okay?
Outside the arena, the players who saw this scene were also discussing animatedly. They really could not understand this wave of the world!
Could it be that he knew that his strength could only be ranked third, so he gave up struggling?
No matter how the players discussed, the outcome could not be changed. Under the siege of Canglan City’s army, Meng Jingtian did not make a move, but dragon soul was still defeated in humiliation.
As Dragon Soul was the last to help, the system announcement sounded. After a few seconds, the system announced the rankings and gave out rewards.
There was no doubt about the rankings. The top three were Canglan City, Dragon Soul, and the world.
As the number one guild, Canglan City had obtained a guild-exclusive main city and a high-level field map stronghold.
However, before Meng Jingtian and the others could check the rewards, another system announcement sounded.
“Ding! System announcement: the system will be leveling up in five minutes. Please return to your homes, main cities, and other safe maps as soon as possible. Otherwise, the system will not be responsible for any accidents that happen during the leveling up period!”
Five minutes! This was not enough for the players to travel in the middle-grade field maps that they had already explored.
If there were no mounts, it would take at least half an hour to travel back and forth from the main cities to the middle-grade field maps!
Fortunately, it was a competition just now. There were quite a number of players gathered in the main cities to watch the competition, and there were not many people in the field maps.
Seeing that there was still some time, Meng Jingtian asked Huang Shang about the rewards of the competition.
Huang Shang shook his head with a bitter smile. “It will only be released after the upgrade!”
At the same time, in the middle of the world, the crystal core of tomorrow was like a red glass ball, as if it had a clear target. It whizzed through the world space, heading straight for one of the lower-tier worlds.
“Ding! System announcement: System Upgrade Begins!”
As a short system announcement sounded, the entire world seemed to have been pressed to pause. All the players, npcs, and wild monsters stopped moving.
Meng Jingtian stood in the main city square. After hearing this announcement, the world instantly fell silent.
He turned his head to look at this still world. He poked Huang Shang, Cai Minghou, and the others, who seemed to be frozen in place. He was certain that he was the only one who could still move.
“This is leveling up?”Meng Jingtian muttered. At the same time, he discovered that a green stream of data had entered every player’s body.
There was also a golden stream of data flowing towards him.
Meng Jingtian wanted to dodge, but he realized that it was useless.
Although he had dodged, the stream of data seemed to have crossed space and time. The moment he dodged, it had entered his body.
As the data stream entered his mind, Meng Jingtian found that there seemed to be more information forced into his mind, and his personal system had also changed.
The originally monotonous mission panel became even richer. In addition to the missions that he had already accepted, there was an additional function to release missions.
Moreover, there were many options in the mission release panel, such as daily missions, sect missions, Oracle Missions, fortuitous encounters missions, skill missions, and so on..
Part of the information that was suddenly stuffed into their minds was the explanation of the background of Tomorrow’s world.
These things that were originally in the promotional videos of tomorrow were all things that they were allowed to explore on their own, and finally, they were told frankly.
Part of it was to supplement their own identity and background.
For example, Meng Jingtian himself. The system had organized his experiences since he entered the game and changed a part of it to serve as his background information.
Azure Dragon Country worshipped the main god, Hong Jun’s disciple, the “Initial”god system’s master..
Other than these changes, the attributes of the players other than Meng Jingtian had also undergone a huge change.
Their basic stats had not changed, but the amount of HP affected by each point of constitution had undergone a huge change.
The players who originally only had over 100,000 hp now had at least 10,000,000 hp.
Meanwhile, the physical and magic attack values that were affected by strength and spirit decreased accordingly.
However, it was not as exaggerated as the change in HP. It only decreased by five or six times.
As for their skill bars, they were all locked. The skill bars that were originally lit up now had a chain-like icon.
It seemed that some special conditions were required to unlock the skills.
Meng Jingtian had originally planned to take advantage of the time when the system was upgrading to wander around. Perhaps he would be able to find some loopholes or something.
However, after taking a few steps, he discovered that the entire world shook. A huge shadow appeared in the sky, as if it was an entire world!
At this moment, in the world space, following the arrival of the Tomorrow Crystal Core in this hitchhiker world, a dense fog filled the entire world. The world shrouded in the dense fog began to collapse, the creatures within began to sink into the fog of the Tomorrow Mana Core and disappeared.
