Chapter 30: First Level, World Blessing

[User 1: Who is the first person to reach level 3?].

[User 2: Is it that hidden expert again, or is it Goddess Qin Yan?].

[User 3: I think it’s more likely to be Su Mu.].

[User 4: Stop talking about goddesses and experts. With two billion people, there are a lot of hidden talents.].

[User 5: The rankings will be released soon. Check it out for yourself.].

anwhile, Su Mu was calmly collecting loot from the battlefield.

The defense tower’s na might lack elegance, but its performance was exceptional. While its attack power didn’t quite rival Su Mu’s Anti-Evil Crossbow, its extended range and rapid-fire capability more than compensated. Additionally, the tower drew aggro effectively, forcing the Scarlet Wild Dogs to attack it first, which ensured Su Mu’s safety as he dealt with the creatures.

Thanks to this setup, Su Mu efficiently cleared a group of Scarlet Wild Dogs, although the loot was fairly standard.

[Wild Dog Bone at] x30

[Description: Dropped by Scarlet Wild Dogs. Due to their thin bodies, there isn’t much at, but it’s better than just bones.].

[Consuming it can increase experience points, with a better effect than just bones.].

The item was essentially an upgrade over the basic [Purified Bones], offering slightly enhanced effects. However, Su Mu barely gave it a second thought—he had Scarlet Boar King at, which not only provided superior benefits but also tasted far better.

After tidying up the battlefield, Su Mu checked his current progress.

[Personal Level: 3 (200/10,000)].

[The survivor’s personal strength has been greatly increased.].

[Hint: After the host reaches level 5, additional attributes can be added to the character.].

Su Mu nodded at the system’s reminder. The concept of additional attributes intrigued him, but he had no intention of rushing into it. Without the ability to update the attribute chanism, adding anything less than the absolute best—preferably of gold quality or higher—would be a waste. For now, patience was his strategy.

“Huh, a world announcent? A level 3 survivor?” Su Mu muttered, catching sight of the broadcast. He smirked.

“This announcent is drawing quite a bit of attention,” he said, shrugging. Keeping a low profile was usually more satisfying, but the World Blessing offered to top-ranking survivors was too tempting to ignore. He had no qualms about showing his strength under these circumstances.

…

[Shelter Owner’s Personal Level Ranking].

[1st: Su Mu – Level 3].

[2nd: Qin Yan – Level 2].

[3rd: Turd – Level 2].

[4th: …].

[All people on the rankings receive special blessings.].

[The higher the rank, the stronger the blessing effects.].

[Survivors, please continue to strive to beco one of the nas on the list!].

The world forum erupted as the rankings appeared, with Su Mu’s na prominently at the top.

[User 6: Su Mu is amazing, truly the first to reach level 3!].

[User 7: I heard that a survivor’s level compared to a monster’s level is at least double. Does this an Su Mu can take on a Scarlet Boar barehanded?].

[User 8: I’m so jealous. I still need strategies to deal with a Skeleton Dog, while real experts are fighting monsters I can’t even dream of approaching.].

[User 9: Didn’t soone brag about reaching level 2 earlier? Compared to Su Mu, what are they worth?].

[User 10: I wonder what the special blessing effects are. I’m so jealous!].

Many who had doubted Su Mu now found themselves silenced, astonished at his rapid progress. After all, everyone had started from scratch. What made Su Mu so extraordinary?

Far away, Turd, busy hunting in the wasteland, saw the rankings and felt a wave of dizziness.

“Su Mu again?!” he growled, clenching his fists. “Do the people of Dragonland love cheating that much? Just wait! These early advantages won’t last! Sooner or later, the warriors from the Beautiful Land will crush you sick tigers!”

…

In the snowy mountains, a young woman with a fairy-like aura frowned as she studied the rankings.

“Second place, huh? Not bad,” she said, her tone calm but tinged with dissatisfaction. “But with Su Mu—a level 3 survivor—around, second place hardly matters.”

Shrugging, she adjusted her gear. “No matter. I’ll focus on my tasks. Looks like there’s an Apocalypse Boss under this well.”

…

anwhile, deep in the wilderness, a muscular man casually munched on fried at while glancing at the rankings.

“Su Mu’s still in first place,” he noted with a grin. “That guy’s strong.”

His grin widened. “But that’s fine. Having soone like him at the top just makes it more exciting to surpass him.”

While the rankings were ant to highlight multiple survivors, with Su Mu dominating first place, second hardly seed to matter.
