Qin Feng was upgrading his Allied technology in the Red Alert domain when a voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
[Ding...]
[The 7-day period has ended. The protection of the新手村 (newbie village) has disappeared.]
Hearing this notification, Qin Feng knew that many people would die on this planet. The harsh external environment was not something ordinary people could endure.
Not long after, another notification sounded.
[Due to the high number of newbies dying in various newbie villages, which is not conducive to everyone's communication, the regional chat channel is now officially opened, and the newbie village chat channel is canceled.]
[Simultaneously, the level reward – Treasure Chest System – is activated!]
After this announcement, the people in the chat channel exploded!
Qin Feng looked at his attribute panel. He found that his newbie village chat channel had become the No. 477 regional chat channel! He didn't know how many people were here, but everyone was typing so fast that the messages were scrolling by; there were at least 10,000 people!
"It's too tragic, too brutal. Half the people in our newbie village are dead. Those monsters outside are too ferocious!"
"What is this terrible weather? Why are there two suns in the sky? What is that unrealistic merging of them?"
"Wouldn't two stars fusing together cause a massive explosion? Why can stars fuse with each other? This is completely different from the science I learned!"
"This temperature is simply unbearable for us humans. If I hadn't had enough money to buy items, I would have died like the other companions in the newbie village!"
"This world simply cannot be understood with normal logic. The suns in the sky merging together only proves that this world is different from our original world. What's in the sky is likely not suns, but two energy bodies with the same properties. When they combine, their power naturally increases greatly!"
"Only a dozen people survived in our newbie village. I think this is the meaning of opening the regional chat channel! Because when the newbie village's light disappears, everyone will suffer heavy losses!"
"I want daddy, I want mommy, I want to leave this world, I want to go home!"
"I also want to go home, back to the original world. I was a well-off entrepreneur, how did I inexplicably come to this damned place!"
"Everyone who survived means you all obtained remarkable items and have good combat power. Now you should think about how to deal with the upcoming crisis. Going back is impossible!"
"Did everyone hear the announcement? What is this treasure chest system? The store has everything. As long as you kill monsters and get money, you can buy whatever you want! It also adds level rewards for the treasure chest system, what is going on!"
"I think the person who brought us to this planet wants us to level up quickly, to increase our strength to the maximum. He might be conducting some experiment."
"No matter what experiment he is doing, one thing is certain: he can fulfill our wishes. If we don't listen to him, don't follow the rules, we will be the ones who suffer. We might lose our lives accidentally!"
"That's right. I suspect he also wants us to level up or evolve rapidly, like monkeys evolving into humans. He wants to see what humans will eventually evolve into. We have no choice but to follow his rules!"
As everyone was discussing animatedly, another prompt appeared in their minds!
[Unlike the newbie gift packs, treasure chests are divided into various levels. The higher the level, the higher the value of the items obtained!]
[The levels of treasure chests are Bronze Treasure Chest, Silver Treasure Chest, Gold Treasure Chest, Platinum Treasure Chest, Diamond Treasure Chest, Epic Treasure Chest, and Mythic Treasure Chest!]
[The top 100 people in each region to reach level 50 will receive a Gold Treasure Chest!]
[The top 100 people in each region to reach level 100 will receive a Platinum Treasure Chest!]
[The top 100 people in each region to reach level 200 will receive a Diamond Treasure Chest!]
[The top 100 people in each region to reach level 1000 will receive an Epic Treasure Chest!]
[The first person in each region to reach the maximum level will receive a Mythic Treasure Chest!]
[At the same time, killing Commander-level monsters also has a chance to obtain treasure chests. The stronger the monster's strength, the greater the chance of obtaining a treasure chest, and the higher the level of the treasure chest.]
[Notification: You will be alerted when encountering monsters of Commander level or above.]
[Work hard to improve yourselves. On this planet, you can achieve any of your dreams. Laziness and complacency will not allow you to survive on this planet. Please continue to strive.]
[In 10 minutes, the regional level rankings will be displayed.]
...
After this announcement ended, the chat area began to discuss furiously.
"As I guessed, giving such tempting leveling conditions forces us to fight fierce beasts and push our combat power to the limit!"
"The last sentence is also very interesting. Laziness and complacency will ultimately cost you your life! It's obvious that if you just loaf around in a safe area and don't try, unexpected dangers will come sooner or later, perhaps earthquakes or volcanic eruptions!"
"The rewards from these treasure chests are very attractive, but I wonder what kind of items a Gold Treasure Chest can yield, and how much combat power it can increase. I currently have 15 combat power, and fighting monsters outside the newbie village can only keep me safe. The Gold Treasure Chest, given only at level 50, should at least double my combat power, otherwise, this reward would be insignificant!"
"You're wrong upstairs. I killed a monster and almost lost my life, but only leveled up twice. My combat power is 20. It's very difficult to reach level 50. I think the items in a Gold Treasure Chest can at least increase combat power by 100, and that's my cautious estimate!"
"What? Increase combat power by 100? If that's the case, wouldn't I become a superhero? With my skills activated, I only have 10 combat power, and I already feel very formidable. If it's 100 combat power, it's truly unimaginable!"
As everyone was discussing animatedly, another prompt appeared in their minds!
[10 minutes have passed. The regional rankings have been compiled.]
[No. 477 Regional Level Ranking is as follows!]
[1st place: Gui Tianya, Level 45.]
[2nd place: Cheng Yezi, Level 40.]
[3rd place: Xie Yi Huo, Level 38.]
[4th place: Hong Er, Level 35.]
[5th place: Bei Wan Nian, Level 33.]
[6th place: Wan Jiang Liu, Level 32.]
[...]
[10th place: Qin Feng, Level 30.]
[...]
Seeing these names, everyone was very surprised, especially the first place who had reached level 45. Qin Feng was also very surprised by this notification. He wasn't the highest level! He had single-handedly eliminated all the zombies outside the newbie village, and all the experience points were obtained by him alone. Even so, he wasn't in first place?
"Could it be that those people not only killed monsters outside the newbie village but also killed monsters in other regions?"
