MTL - Spellcasting is a Permanent Addition and My Skills Are All Forbidden Spells-Chapter 39 Sword of Heaven's Choice, the top spot on the level list has changed hands!
Chapter 39: The Sword of Natural Selection, the ranking list, the top spot changes hands!
At this time, everyone in Settlement No. 1024 was very excited.
After a whole night of hard work.
The settlement area has reached 499,999 square meters.
The 500,000 square meters away from activating the protective shield is just the last bit!
Many people looked nervously at Wei Meng, who was in the top three on the battle merit list.
The last piece of the border decree is in his hand!
"use!"
Wei Meng took a few deep breaths, aimed at a zombie area, and used the border order.
Light green energy gushes out from the token, covering the ground. Many black impurities fly, dissipating in the air like snowflakes.
[Ding, the surrounding one square meter has been successfully converted into a safe zone and included in the settlement area. You will gain +30 experience points. 】
A system prompt sounded in Wei Meng's mind.
The next moment is a settlement-wide announcement.
【Notice: All activation conditions have been met, and the protective shield function will be activated immediately! 】
Following this announcement, the light green light film covering the settlement suddenly changed.
Then, it suddenly became solid and the color became much darker, as if it was made of metal!
On the protective cover, attributes are displayed.
【Level 1 Settlement Protective Cover: Durability 100,000. Attacks by monsters of level 15 and below will not lose any durability. 】
In an instant, there were loud cheers in the settlement!
“Succeeded!”
“We activated the shield!”
“Boss Lu Cheng, are you here? We have accomplished what you asked us to do!”
“Now, even if the monster wave comes again, we don’t have to be afraid!”
“We did it and finally gained a foothold!”
Looking at the protective shield covering the settlement, everyone was happy and excited.
But at this moment, a system announcement suddenly sounded.
【Notice: Settlement No. 93 has launched a duel of natural selection against your settlement. The duel direction is: level! 】
With this somewhat urgent announcement.
The situation outside the settlement suddenly changed. Above the hub of the settlement, a golden sword condensed with cold light, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the bronze tree!
"what's the situation?"
“What does natural selection... mean??”
“How come there is an extra golden sword above the bronze tree? Was there one before?”
This sudden scene left many people stunned.
At this time, the system announcement sounded again.
【The Sword of Natural Selection has been condensed. The one who is the first to equip the Sword of Natural Selection will win this duel! 】
【Winner, all attributes of the whole settlement will be increased by 10 points, loser, all attributes of the whole settlement will be deducted by 10 points! 】
"What??"
This system prompt fell, and everyone’s expressions changed.
Ten points of all attributes!
The previous victory in the settlement guard battle, plus Lu Cheng's destruction of the sealing stone, only added a total of three points of all attributes!
Three points of total attributes, which means fifteen points of total attributes, which improved their combat power a lot.
But even so, there are still many people whose total attributes are less than fifty points!
If ten points of all attributes are deducted, some attributes may be deducted!
“If the attributes are reduced to a negative number...what will happen?”
Many people looked pale.
There are also those who react quickly and rush to the settlement hub as soon as possible!
Equip yourself with the Heavenly Sword, and you can win the duel!
Li Tianyu was the fastest and was the first to rush to the bronze tree. He quickly reached out and grabbed the Sword of Natural Selection.
But the next moment, he retracted his hand as if he was electrocuted, and his palm was burnt black.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing this scene, everyone's hearts sank.
"This sword... has level requirements, I can't take it!"
Li Tianyu endured the severe pain and forced himself to speak.
With his touch, the properties of the Sword of Natural Selection were also revealed.
…
【Sword of Natural Selection (special prop, disappears after the duel of natural selection)】
【Equipment requirements: Level 12 or above. 】
…
“Level 12??”
Looking at the properties of the Sword of Natural Selection, people took a breath!
This sword actually requires level 12 to equip!
Suddenly, everyone felt anxious.
They have been busy exchanging border orders and activating protective shields all night, but they have not upgraded much! Compared with the level, they suffered a huge loss!
But soon, someone reacted:
“Don’t be afraid! Boss Lu Cheng is still here!”
“That’s right! With Lu Shen taking care of everything, we can win!”
“If Mr. Lu Cheng takes action, he will definitely be equipped with this Sword of Natural Selection!”
“Go and invite Mr. Lu Cheng!”
For a time, the morale in the settlement chat was boosted.
In the previous wave of monsters, it was Lu Cheng who appeared and killed the BOSS by himself, and then the settlement was defended!
This makes everyone have unlimited confidence in Lu Cheng.
Furthermore, no one has forgotten that the world announcement a few hours ago was the news that Lu Cheng’s job transfer was successful!
At this time, the system prompt sounded again.
【Announcement: During the Natural Selection Showdown, the level ranking list is open! 】
The system sound falls, and the two-sided ranking list appears.
【Settlement No. 93, belonging to the Japanese state】
…
【First place: Fujiyama Jiro, professional recovery warlock, level 9, 54% experience. 】
【Second place: Hattori Takuto, professional onmyoji, level 6 with 82% experience. 】
Third place: Kota Moritani, professional ronin, level 6, 74% experience. 】
Fourth place: Yutaro Suiryo, professional warrior, level 6, 65% experience. 】
【Fifth place: Nao Okawahara, professional fighter...
…
Tenth place: Kento Ikura, professional archer, level 6, 17% experience. 】
…
Looking at the ranking list of Japanese settlements.
Everyone’s heart sank.
With Sixth Level and Up!
Jiro Fujiyama, who is in first place, is leading by a cliff. He is already at level nine and a half!
“Why is his level so high...”
Some people were puzzled and looked at their own ranking list.
As a result, after just one glance, his face suddenly turned pale!
“Everyone, something happened...look at your rankings!”
His voice was trembling.
Everyone was shocked and hurriedly looked at their own list.
【Settlement No. 1024, belonging to Daxia】
…
【First place: Li Tianyu, professional warrior, level 6, 21% experience. 】
[Second place: Wei Meng, professional warrior, level 6, 15% experience. 】
[Third place: Li Guanghe, professional Taoist priest, 97% experience at level 5. 】
Fourth place: Bai Sheng, professional swordsman, 84% experience at level 5. 】
[Fifth place: Liu Xiong, professional mage…
…
【Tenth place: Wang Wei, professional woodcutter, level 5, 55% experience. 】
…
"this…"
"how so??"
Looking at their own ranking list, everyone was stunned.
On the level list, many are familiar faces, and there is not much change from the previous battle merit list.
However, everyone noticed the same thing.
The top spot has changed hands!
“Wait a minute… Where is Mr. Lu Cheng??”
“Why is there no boss Lu Cheng on the level list??”
At this moment, everyone in the settlement was panicked!
“Is it because Lu Shen’s level is not high enough and he is not on the list?”
“That’s not right! There were clearly job transfer notices before! Isn’t it possible that Mr. Lu Cheng is not on the list??”
“But why is he not on the list? Could it be that...”
Lu Cheng's previous record was so dazzling that everyone believed that he must be number one in the ranking.
But Lu Cheng’s name is not on this ranking list!
“Could it be said that Mr. Lu Cheng…is dead??”
Some people speculated in panic, and suddenly, huge panic spread.
