He gritted his teeth and decided to take this opportunity for a desperate escape.
That’s right, with his plump, pudgy dragon body resembling a pig, there was simply no attack power.
It was good enough that he could run.
Unexpectedly, the two players from the Berserk Representative Team were indeed held up.
"I see him! What’s with that guy, what’s the situation!"
"That’s got to be a wild monster!"
Hearing their cries, Grace Spring didn’t look back and kept fleeing.
However, he hadn’t gone far when the sounds from behind ceased.
Curious, he turned his head for a glance and saw nothing.
"They probably couldn’t catch up."
In his relief, he suddenly felt his foot trip.
Then Grace Spring was sent flying.
"What are you running for?"
Following that, he heard a sentence spoken in a familiar tone.
"Oh oh oh!"
Upon reflection, Grace Spring realized what had happened.
Without a doubt, it was Ree Shil, who had entered the Instance first, that had saved him.
"Where are you?"
But after looking around, he couldn’t see Ree Shil anywhere.
Thinking back to what had just occurred, could this guy have some sort of skill to harm from a distance and transmit voice?
"What are you looking at, look down."
Then he heard a voice coming from near his feet.
He looked down...
"Pfft, hahaha! How did you end up like this!"
What appeared before Grace Spring was a dull-colored dinosaur the size of a small puppy.
This fellow was none other than Ree Shil, who had been constantly leveling up his "Spirit Master’s Wings".
"What’s so funny, laugh again and I’ll bite you."
Ree Shil tried to sound fierce, but it was hard to take it seriously with his size.
The two joined forces, and things got a lot easier.
Ree Shil already had a clear understanding of the surrounding terrain.
Since his "infinite body" required as much movement as possible, he had traveled through many places. freёweɓnovel.com
He had long identified a great hiding spot for Grace Spring.
An inwardly spacious, outwardly narrow circular valley, and there was also an underground river secret passage leading to the outer world, so there was no fear of being blockaded and besieged at the entrance.
On their way to the valley, the two also looked for other teammates. ƒrēewebnovel.com
Eventually, they found two teammates from the Balance Representative Team, but one had unfortunately been eliminated.
So, Grace Spring and the two others began using the circular valley as a base for defense and hunting.
Ree Shil, on the other hand, continued to roam solo in the wilderness.
Ten hours passed, and the new batch of players, the 20-point tier, prepared to enter the Instance.
Grace Spring and the others had reached Level 20, keeping pace with the environmental upgrade.
Meanwhile, Ree Shil had reached Level 25.
He was significantly ahead of the version environment.
Mainly because unlike the previous time slot, this 10-point tier had other players.
Picking off a few heads while farming monsters made it more efficient than simply farming monsters alone.
Apart from the Balance Representative Team, the Berserk Representative Team and the Wisdom Representative Team had also found fairly hidden bases.
Basically, during the 10-point tier, every team focused on farming and leveling up.
If they saw other players from a distance, they would tacitly choose to avoid them.
Only someone like Ree Shil, who specialized in stealth attacks, had an easier time getting kills.
However, overall, the number of players exiting the game was still not high.
By the time the 20-point tier players entered, the competition began to intensify.
First, the Berserk and Wisdom Representative Teams discovered the base of the Balance Representative Team and then united to mount an attack.
Luckily, there was a secret passageway, and the few players from the Balance Representative Team managed to evacuate upon early detection.
Having missed their target, the two teams could only turn their focus to the Wind Chasing Representative Team, whose base was easier to attack.
As for the Listening to the Wind Representative Team, they had too few players present to need a base.
Simply finding a pit or a tree was sufficient to get through the night.
The assault on the Listening to the Wind Representative Team likewise failed to achieve success.
The reason was that on their way to the destination, the Wisdom Representative Team launched a stealth attack on the Berserk Representative Team who were traveling with them.
They were inherently adversaries; there were no such things as absolute alliances.
However, the Wisdom Representative Team had done this sort of thing before, so the Berserk Representative Team was on guard.
The two sides immediately engaged in a melee right there and then, to the astonishment of the Wind Chasing Representative Team players who happened to pass by.
In the end, neither side gained an advantage, and this essentially declared that cooperation between any two teams was no longer possible.
The 20-point time slot ended, and Ree Shil reaped considerable benefits.
He took advantage of the chaos created by the various parties to roam the streets and farm monsters, even stealing several kills.
By the time the bulk of the 20-point groups had reached Level 30, he had already reached Level 36.
At this level, he was more than a match for the 30-point players who were about to arrive.
Moreover, with the growth of his attributes, his dragon was now much stronger than the average Level 36 dragon.
He even felt that he could take on four or five Level 35 dinosaurs in a single challenge without breaking a sweat.
Of course, that’s if the other party didn’t use skills.
If the other party used skills, then at most he might manage two or three before reaching his limit.
However, the upcoming 30-point slot would mark the true beginning of the dinosaur battles.
The strongest players from each representative team all chose to enter the arena during this time slot.
They would spend the entire 30 points time slot leveling up, familiarizing themselves with and enhancing their skills, before the final showdown.
In all this, the Balance Representative Team, as the regular visitor to the first place, still faced subtle opposition from the other five teams.
To counterbalance the Balance Representative Team, they even joined forces temporarily and briefly.
This resulted in the Balance Representative Team not making it through the 40-point slot, almost entirely wiped out.
"Almost," because Ree Shil was left standing.
After all, the effect of the "Spirit Master’s Wings" at this level was so exaggerated that it had reduced his size to that of a green frog.
As long as he wanted to hide, no one could find him unless it was a player with special scouting skills.
Although there would be some reinforcements in the 40, 50, and even 60-point slots, the mainstay was still the 30-point group.
The player at the 60-point slot was the player with the highest base attributes as soon as he entered the field.
Because the other players were busy with PK-ing, neglecting to farm monsters and level up.
But even as the player with the highest base attributes, he didn’t survive even 3 hours.
He could basically be said to have been surrounded and killed as soon as he entered the fray.
In reality, the round ended in less than 10 hours.
Hunchback Woman: "Who would have thought, the way the rankings were decided in the end would be like this."
Museum Director Phoenix: "To be honest, this is somewhat humiliating."
Hunchback Woman: "True, who could have expected the rankings from second to fifth place would entirely depend on the first place."
In the later stages of the competition, Ree Shil’s tactics were fully realized.
His unlimited growth potential gave him a panel that was far superior to anyone else’s.
And then there was his tiny size, comparable to that of a mosquito, which left the other players with no way to handle him.
To describe his situation as having an overwhelming advantage was both fitting and ironic.
The reason why the rankings of the other players depended on Ree Shil was because towards the end, each team just happened to have only one player left.
Under these circumstances, no one dared to make rash moves and challenge others.
They feared either being counter-killed or being taken advantage of by a third party.
Ree Shil had no such concerns, as neither of those two scenarios was likely to happen to him.
So the rankings of other players depended entirely on his mood; whoever he targeted first would be the first to be eliminated.
The recent performance of the Balance Representative Team had not been as good as in the early stages; not only did they lose their continuous first-place position, but they also repeatedly scored low.
This surge back to first place was undoubtedly a morale booster.
Furthermore, for Ree Shil personally, securing first place in this round was very profitable.
As the sole survivor, he would receive a reward issued by the organizers.
After the competition ended, he received some information about this reward.
The name of the reward sounded quite tempting.
It was called the Dragon Year Card Deck Gift Pack from an Alternate Space.
It was said that this reward was not unprecedented, but it was very rare.
What the organizers were about to give wasn’t Material Cards.
It was real cards, sealed in a special way!
For Ree Shil, acquiring cards through a non-Instance method was a first.
He was very much looking forward to what kind of Dragon Year grand prize he would receive this time.
