Sitting with Maya and the others, Chen Yu felt some hostile gazes.
The students from the other three regions.
"It seems they haven’t changed at all," Zhuge Qingfeng whispered.
"Then we’ll just put them down!" Dongfang Ji said coolly.
Chen Yu said nothing.
’Normally, I wouldn’t make a move. But if they’re looking for trouble, I don’t mind putting the students from those three regions to sleep for a while.’
’Compared to harvesting the Source of Life, he didn’t have time to waste on these internal conflicts.’
’If they become a real problem, I’ll deal with them later!’
’Fighting during a competition like this would only cause trouble.’
...
Once everyone was present, the event organizers and the representatives from the Twelve Institutes arrived as well.
Chen Yu, like everyone else, received two devices.
One was an anti-radiation bracelet. The other, also a bracelet, was for recording points and checking one’s own rank.
The bracelet also had positioning and Life Fluctuation detection functions.
In a life-threatening situation, the scoring bracelet could be used for tracking and precise location.
After the equipment was handed out, the event organizer explained the rules for the finals.
The competition was based on point rankings!
The scoring started with Level 3 Mutant Beasts. Killing a Level 3 Mutant Beast was worth one point.
A Level 4 Mutant Beast was worth ten points!
As for a Level 5 Mutant Beast, killing one awarded five hundred points!
A Level 6 Mutant Beast was worth a staggering five thousand points!
The points for a kill would automatically be awarded to whoever delivered the final blow.
The Lola Mountain Anomaly was teeming with mutant beasts, making it extremely dangerous. However, the event organizers had assigned personnel to monitor the situation, so fatalities were highly unlikely.
Of course, there were exceptions for rare, extreme circumstances, but the probability of such an event was very low.
In the Lola Mountain Anomaly, it was rare for mutant beasts stronger than Level 6 to appear.
Even if they did, they would likely have been cleared out in advance.
Level 6 Mutant Beasts weren’t something you’d just stumble upon, either.
Most of the beasts were Level 3 or Level 4.
A Level 6 Mutant Beast was practically at the limit of what the students could handle.
...
Once the rules were explained, Chen Yu and his group boarded a helicopter bound for the Lola Mountain Anomaly.
Their scores could be viewed back at the academy and would be updated in real-time.
The representatives from the Twelve Institutes and others back at the academy could watch the results live.
The final round would officially begin, and the timer would start, the moment they entered the Lola Mountain Anomaly.
「An hour later.」
Over the Lola Mountain Abyssal Realm in the Capital City, several helicopters descended from the sky, landing on the ground.
Chen Yu and the others disembarked from the helicopters.
After getting off the helicopter, Chen Yu looked ahead. Not far away was the Abyssal Entrance that led into the Lola Mountain Anomaly.
Using his Biological Force Field ability, Chen Yu could sense that the entrance to this Space-Time Gate was shrouded in a powerful energy.
Normally, a dangerous Abyssal Realm like this one would be sealed.
It was only opened under special circumstances.
This energy field served as a failsafe; if anything went wrong, it could be activated to completely seal the entrance.
In addition to the energy seal, various arcane Arrays were also in place.
Multiple lines of defense.
It was virtually impossible for any accidents to occur.
Since the Lola Mountain Anomaly was located within the Capital City’s jurisdiction, its defenses were far more stringent than those of the Crane Ridge Anomaly he had visited before.
But that was to be expected. After all, if an accident were to happen here, the situation would quickly spiral out of control.
...
At the Lola Mountain Abyss, before the Space-Time Gate, Chen Yu and the others entered the Lola Mountain Anomaly one after another.
Unlike the Crane Ridge Anomaly, entry into the Lola Mountain Anomaly involved random teleportation.
This meant that a group of people entering at the same time wouldn’t appear in the same location.
However, they wouldn’t be scattered too far apart—the maximum distance between them would be within a hundred-kilometer radius.
The moment he stepped through the Space-Time Gate, a dizzying, world-spinning sensation washed over him.
It was a familiar sensation; this was Chen Yu’s second time entering an Abyssal Realm.
When the dizzying sensation faded, Chen Yu opened his eyes.
In the sky, a sun like a red giant blazed with intense light.
Looking up, the red giant-like star seemed almost close enough to touch.
The sky was red.
The flow of time in the Lola Mountain Abyssal Realm was the same as in the outside world, but the environment was completely different.
Towering trees blotted out the sun, making him feel as if he were in a primeval jungle.
The roars and snarls of mutant beasts echoed in the distance.
HMMMM—!
Chen Yu released his Force Field sense. With his Perfection Level Biological Force Field, no living creature within a radius of dozens of kilometers could escape his detection.
With this Force Field sense, he could track down mutant beasts much faster than anyone else.
Several powerful Life Fluctuations registered in his mind.
After pinpointing their direction, he activated his Divine Speed Power. Wreathed in his Electric Flash Field, Chen Yu vanished with a ZZZT.
At fifty times the speed of sound, a distance of dozens of kilometers could be covered in the span of a breath.
In the primeval forest, Chen Yu’s figure materialized on the shore of a lake.
Through his Biological Force Field sense, he could feel the Life Fluctuations of mutant beasts coming from the lake before him.
And it wasn’t just one—there were several.
’Three Level 4s, one Level 3... hmm? And a Level 5!’
Chen Yu stared at the lake, his Force Field sense fully active. He could accurately count the beasts and even gauge their strength.
There were a total of five mutant beasts in the lake!
Three Level 4 Mutant Beasts, one Level 3 Mutant Beast, and a Level 5 Mutant Beast lurking in the center.
Five Terror Crocodiles!
’I have to force them out!’
Staring at the lake, an idea struck him. In the next instant, he moved, appearing directly over the center of the lake.
He spread his five fingers, and his Biological Force Field erupted. Using his control over the Force Field, he sent the calm lake water surging into a monstrous wave.
It formed a waterspout that churned the lake!
SPLASH—!
His manipulation of the water with his Force Field quickly got a response. A Terror Crocodile burst from the depths, roaring.
FWOOSH—!
A scarlet beam shot out, blasting toward Chen Yu.
In midair, as the Level 3 Terror Crocodile attacked, lightning crackled through the air. An instant later, Chen Yu’s fist slammed into the creature’s head.
A torrential burst of Power erupted, instantly punching through the Level 3 Terror Crocodile’s skull. Its corpse crashed into the water, sending up a spray of water.
