Chapter 79

Tang Yan is competitive and determined to do whatever others can do.

"Because Sun Yuan killed the Spore Mother, the third game cannot proceed. If you want to continue challenging this Tower of God, you can re-ascend the tower after one day."

The Silver Horse explained.

After one day, a new Spore Mother will be released, and the game will restart.

"Damn!"

Tang Yan was extremely unhappy.

...

In the primitive spore forest, Shen Jingran was running with her head down.

About fifty meters behind her, two mushroom men were chasing her. No matter how hard she ran, she couldn't shake them off.

"Damn it, I absolutely won't die here. I am the goddess who will save the world and all of humanity."

Shen Jingran encouraged herself, gritting her teeth and relying on immense willpower to keep going. Even though her lungs felt like they were on fire from continuous running, she didn't slow down.

Because she knew that if the mushroom men caught up to her, she would be dead for sure.

"Once my combat power improves, I'll kill a thousand mushroom men every morning for my morning exercise!"

Shen Jingran vowed.

Physical strength will eventually be exhausted.

Shen Jingran was getting more and more tired, her limbs feeling like they were filled with lead, almost unable to lift them, but the number of mushroom men increased to four.

This number made Shen Jingran want to sigh to the sky. Is this fate?

However, Shen Jingran did not lose hope. She stopped, gripped the wild man's wolf-tooth club tightly, and prepared for her final stand.

Either you die, or I die!

But just as the mushroom men were five meters away from Shen Jingran, the system announcement for the end of the game sounded.

Shen Jingran was stunned, then her face lit up with joy. She rolled on the ground to avoid the attack of the fastest mushroom man, then got up, turned around, and charged forward recklessly.

Just ten more seconds, and she could go home.

Sun Yuan,

You are my eternal god!

Shen Jingran was extremely regretful. If she had discovered how excellent Sun Yuan was earlier, it would have been great to become his girlfriend. But it's not too late now.

...

"I hope Siyu is okay!"

Xu Qingshan was full of worry. He didn't hide and wait for the game to end; instead, he kept searching, hoping to find Zhao Siyu as soon as possible.

"Are you crazy? What you're doing is just a waste of energy!"

Chen Jun was helpless.

"I didn't ask you to follow me!"

Xu Qingshan's expression was cold.

Chen Jun thought to himself, do you think I want to follow you?

I just wanted to find a companion, so I would have someone to rely on in case of danger, and through your connections, see if you could help me ask Sun Yuan to let me join his team.

But now, this decision seems too stupid.

If I keep running like this, I'll die from exhaustion before the monsters even get to me.

"I can't go on, I can't run anymore!"

Chen Jun bent over, hands on his knees, panting heavily.

"Take care of yourself!"

Xu Qingshan showed no sign of lingering.

"You..."

Chen Jun was convinced, looking helpless. Is Zhao Siyu really that good?

To the point where you're willing to risk your life?

"Xu Qingshan, does Zhao Siyu know how much you're doing for her?"

Chen Jun started using his words, trying to get Xu Qingshan to stay. After all, acting alone in this wild and dangerous place is too risky.

"Why should she know?"

Xu Qingshan countered, "I'm doing this because I like her!"

"..."

Chen Jun was speechless.

Is this the ultimate form of a love slave?

Chen Jun saw that Xu Qingshan was about to leave, and his scalp tingled. He was trying to think of what to say to persuade this love-struck fool when the game end announcement sounded.

Hearing that Sun Yuan had killed the Spore Mother, Chen Jun immediately felt relieved, then he was filled with emotion.

Some students, who usually seem ordinary and unremarkable, can burst with brilliance when faced with a crisis.

If the world hadn't been gamified, Chen Jun, as a university counselor, would have climbed the ranks step by step, perhaps even becoming a dean or even a president.

And Sun Yuan?

After graduating from university, he would have found a job, worked 996, and probably gone bald before the age of 40, constantly worrying about his wife, children, and household chores.

No, he might not even have found a girlfriend and would have had to go on blind dates, only to be mocked by older single women.

Some people just need an opportunity.

...

Su Tanyang, Tang Tang, Shan Zheng, and Li Wan, who had given up on survival and waited to die, were all lucky to live until Sun Yuan cleared the game.

The return teleportation began.

These surviving players would be teleported to the top of the Tower of God in order of their performance, to be evaluated, scored, and rewarded.

In short, they had survived this tower assault.

...

When Su Tanyang and the other surviving players walked out of the Tower of God, every teacher and student at Ancient City University received a game announcement.

[Ancient City University Tower of God, cleared, time taken: 61 hours.]

[First batch of participating players: 1000 people.]

[Deaths: 985 people.]

[Survivors: 15 people.]

[Ancient City University Tower of God closed, will reopen after one day. Players can then enter to challenge the tower.]

Every teacher and student who saw this game announcement was shocked.

The death rate is terrifying.

Basically, out of every hundred people, only one and a half survive.

The teachers and students who entered the Tower of God later were almost scared out of their wits when they saw this data.

Because Sun Yuan had killed the Spore Mother, the third game could not proceed, so the Tower of God closed.

These teachers and students could leave the tower early.

Of course, they wouldn't receive any rewards.

But at this moment, no one cared about rewards; they were just grateful to be alive.

At the same time, they were very curious about who these 15 survivors were.

They must be very strong, right?

[Seven-day, six-night survival battle now begins. Spore people will enter a frenzied state and attack every human they see.]

[Players, struggle to survive!]

[Enjoy the game!]

The Silver Horse didn't give anyone a chance to catch their breath. The seven-day, six-night survival battle started immediately.

At the same time, all the spore people in the school began to howl, as if sounding the charge before a hunt.

They 'awoke' and were eager to implant their eggs.

In the office, Zhou Hongzhi stood by the window, looking at the monsters with their grotesque expressions and fierce eyes. He suddenly felt very regretful.

Why didn't he organize the teachers and students to kill all the monsters in the school earlier?

Zhou Hongzhi still had the mindset from before the world was gamified, afraid of taking responsibility. His idea was to have the students hide and wait for the army's rescue.

Zhou Hongzhi was worried about being fired, so he chose inaction to avoid making mistakes. However, this choice also cost everyone the best opportunity to establish a temporary safe zone.

The difficulty of survival suddenly increased.

"No more food, no army, and Wang is dead!"

Zhou Hongzhi muttered, opened the window, and stepped onto it.

The spore people wandering below noticed Zhou Hongzhi and immediately gathered. Their throats emitted low roars, and they kept reaching up, trying to pull Zhou Hongzhi down.

"Ha ha, the world is over!"

Zhou Hongzhi glanced at the distant city, then jumped.

Bang!

Zhou Hongzhi, jumping from the seventh floor, landed on the spore people. He didn't die immediately, but the next second, he was overwhelmed by the monsters.

Several thick, foot-long tongues extended into his mouth, implanting eggs.

"What is Senior doing? Why is his phone off?"

Zhen Yu couldn't get through to Sun Yuan's phone and tried to contact him through the communication system on the attribute panel, but still got no response, which made her very anxious.

Shen Jingran, Zhao Siyu, and Qin De, among others, all looked anxious, eager to contact Sun Yuan as soon as possible because only by following him would they be safe.
