Chapter 141: Silly
Hidden rewards would not be available until one had progressed by 1,000%.
There were numerous prerequisites.
First and foremost, time was of the essence. Once one had reached 100% progress, one would only have 5 minutes left to stack one’s progress. If one exceeded that time, one would be forced to teleport.
One would be unable to stack one’s progress at the current level regardless of where the penalty teleport went.
As a result, the tower climbers were forced to make rapid progress in a short period.
There were two of them.
First, it was sufficient to decimate the enemy’s strength in large numbers.
Second, it was sufficient to decimate the enemy’s numbers.
It was impossible to lack any of them.
Finally, even if they had the strength, opportunity, and time, they still had enough enemy numbers.
They still had to know that there was such a hidden reward. They still had to be aware of the hidden reward.
Wang Wen had plenty of strength, just like in his previous life. He would always encounter such a large-scale battle environment after passing through so many checkpoints. However, he was unaware of the existence of such a reward, so he had never triggered it.
In fact, all tower climbers focused on the two points of safety and efficiency while climbing the tower.
The majority of them hoped to advance to a higher level.
However, each time the tower time was limited, a weekly reset meant that each time into the tower could only be 168 hours.
It had become a science to make better use of the limited time available to climb to a higher tower.
Once the checkpoint was completed and the lower level of the entrance opened, many tower climbers would not move too slowly, let alone stay in the checkpoint, wasting five minutes of precious time.
Even if people were dissatisfied with the progress, whether they had the necessary strength was another matter.
Even if the right time, place, and people were all present, nothing would happen if they did not fight hard enough.
There would be a lack of experience and intelligence.
Then, they examined the reward description.
The reward was only available to the person who pulled the trigger first.
Who would be that individual?
To respond to that question…
Wang Wen covered his brow and asked the drone in the corner of the 201st-floor time-limited secret room.
The drone responded mechanically, lowering its voice, “When the first full progress exceeds 1,000%, this is the only type of reward that can be triggered. After that, regardless of who exceeds any number at any time or place, it will not be triggered again.”
The drone’s seriousness struck Wang Wen, so he asked, “When will the hidden reward be released? I can’t go hungry!”
Mo Ran lay on the ground in the distance, secretly sizing up Wang Wen, who was pulling the drone to chat with his disciple and female team members to decode the code. “I have been observing it for a while,” he said to Zhu Xingguo. “When we come across a time-limited secret room, your master will let you two fight. Is that considered slacking in public?”
“Shh.” Zhu Xingguo quickly made a silent gesture. “So you don’t know?” he asked, his face mysterious. “I thought you would notice it after climbing so many floors with me. Don’t bother my master. He is assisting us in repelling the terrifying spiritual attack!”
“What spiritual attack?” Mo Ran inquired, puzzled. “Is there a trick in that time-limited secret room?”
“I don’t know the exact details,” Zhu Xingguo admitted honestly. “It was always Master who took on all of them by himself. To avoid making us worry, he always pretended to be okay. However, we notice the pain he concealed with a smile and the uncontrollable nosebleed.”
Mo Ran could not help but reach out and touch Zhu Xingguo’s brow. He could not decide whether to laugh or cry as he asked, “Are you insane? What kind of spiritual assault? Why have I never heard of that? The intelligence department had never received such information.”
“Intelligence division? Which agency?” Chen Hansheng, who was listening in from the sidelines, asked out of the blue.
Nobody was paying attention to him.
Even when Ren Ruoruo approached Mo Ran, he took the initiative to say, “I can explain that.”
Team Leader Mo, you may have noticed that the difficulty of our climb up the tower with the team leader is unusual.
” According to our analysis, it may have triggered some special rules that increased the overall difficulty of the level. We felt that each level was comparable to the level of persuasion that most people only encounter once every few months. We would have left the tower or died if it had not been for you and Master. We would not have made it this far.”
Zhu Xingguo vigorously nodded his head.
Chen Hansheng, who was listening in, asked again, “Team leader Mo. Which Team Leader Mo?”
No one was paying attention to him.
Mo Ran looked suspiciously at Zhu Xingguo, then at Ren Ruoruo; he could not believe it. “The difficulty has indeed risen slightly. That was something I noticed as well, but the checkpoint mode is essentially the same. The speed mechanism, for example, remained the same. “I see no illusions.”
Ren Ruoruo paused for a moment before asking, “May I ask, are you a spiritual master?”
Mo Ran said. “I am a combat master! Only a lunatic would waste time training in that!”
Zhu Xingguo overheard someone disparaging his master. He could not care less if he was an expert. “Master has already completed two puzzles!” he retorted.
Ren Ruoruo quickly drew him away from the conflict and symbolically complimented Mo Ran, saying, “Team Leader Mo is awesome! I am not a spiritual power master either. Only the team leader is a spiritual master, and he is also a Broken Might master. Do you follow what I’m saying?”
“Do you mean that no one else can see through it beside him?” Mo Ran did not bother arguing with the silly Zhu Xingguo, but he was still conflicted. “I don’t believe it. No, I need to check with him to see if it is true!”
Ren Ruoruo helplessly shrugged at Zhu Xingguo to demonstrate that she had done her best.
Zhu Xingguo did not want anyone to bother Wang Wen, but he could not find a good reason to stop Mo Ran, so he had no choice but to follow him and walk toward Wang Wen.
Mo Ran took a few steps toward Wang Wen.
He was about to inquire.
However, Wang Wen got there first. “Have you completed the time-limited secret room?”
“No, not yet! I have something to ask you,” Mo Ran said anxiously.
“That is great! Everyone is here to be rewarded. It is the hidden reward from the previous stage,” Wang Wen exclaimed to the few people who surrounded him. According to the drone, each of us can draw a special privilege!”
“Please don’t interrupt me.” Mo Ran’s attention was diverted as he spoke. “What special privilege?”
“We have completed more than 1,000% of our progress, and we only have one chance to give it to everyone,” Wang Wen said with a smile. “Each of us can obtain a special privilege from the drone, and we can begin immediately.”
Chen Hansheng, who was listening in, was taken aback. “I didn’t make much progress, but I can draw?”
“Yes.” Wang Wen gave him a nod. “As long as you are on the same team as us. How does it feel to lie down and fly, Chen Hansheng?”
“It feels fantastic!” Chen Hansheng’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “Can I go first?” he yelled. “Of course, you can go first as well. I am confident in my abilities. I have no objections!”
Ren Ruoruo was ecstatic as well. She took Zhu Xingguo’s arm in her hands.
Mo Ran was excited too, but he felt like he missed something. The following scene, on the other hand, felt like a lottery. Everyone came in the first place. He could not think about anything else because the atmosphere was so intense.
Ren Ruoruo was the first to draw.
No one fought over it because everyone had a draw. A lady should go first.
The drone spoke after Ren Ruoruo finished drawing.
“You have obtained a special privilege. You can summon the lower level entrance at any time you enter the tower. There is no incentive to jump.”
