Chapter 797: Chapter 797
For countless years, the highest level reached in Multiverse No. 136 has been stuck at level 66. No one has ever received the bonus points from levels above 88.
The difficulty doesn't just lie in solving the escape room puzzles. Most people spend almost a full day just getting to level 40.
Mentally and physically exhausted, continuing beyond that point pushes the limits.
Just imagine, completing all 333 levels would probably take a month?
Yet, for Qing Chen, reaching level 162 only took a little over a hundred minutes, it was like a walk in the park.
This speed is as if everyone else is in a completely different multiverse!
It's like you've hired two locksmiths; the first one casually twists the lock, and the door opens. The second one pulls out a hammer and tries to smash your door frame.
While both open locks, these are completely different concepts!
However, all the viewers following this speedrun began to wonder, why did it stop?
Has this White Light finally been stumped by a room?!
Otherwise, wouldn't his score continue to skyrocket?
If you enter the top 10000 of the monthly rankings, each position advancement brings a different experience.
Xiao Hei said that the top ten have a chance for enlightenment and awakening, but he didn't say there are benefits for entering the top 10000.
Once you enter the top 10000, the mall will open access to D-Class Gene Medicine for players. It's limited to one purchase per person, and can be resold for 100,000 superconducting coins, equivalent to 50,000 in the real world.
Now, Qing Chen, starting with nothing, has broken into the top 10000 within a day. If he continues, he'll easily be in the top 1000 within the day?
No, the most crucial part is that he brought seven people, including FFF, into the top 10000!
Thankfully... he finally stopped.
At this moment, Qing Chen stood in a room without a timer, turning to look at the three couples behind him, he calmly said, "Following me to level 162 is enough. Everyone, do you want to continue?"
Those who have time to play escape rooms are generally under less pressure in real life and are mostly the privileged class, they aren't short of money.
Qing Chen removed his mask, allowing them to see his face clearly.
His previous actions with the Rising Sun were not about seeking fame, but to turn his face into a brand.
And, becoming the spiritual leader of the privileged class... sounds pretty good.
The three couples looked at each other. They realized who the big shot leading them through more than a hundred levels was!
But who could have imagined that while millions were waiting for him to complete this epic speedrun, he stopped not because the escape room was too difficult, but because he wanted to charge money... Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹~𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮~𝚗𝚎𝚝
What stopped Qing Chen wasn't the difficulty of the level, but the difficulty of charging...
Qing Chen said, "If I'm not mistaken, you should all be in the top 10000 of the Virtual Realm now. Each level you pass will further improve your ranking. After completing level 333, even entering the top 1000 won't be surprising, and you'll also get an upgraded reward. How does that sound?"
The three couples looked at each other: "How can you be so sure you can complete it?"
Qing Chen retorted, "We're already at level 162, isn't this question a bit silly?"
Even FFF didn't expect to get this far. He previously thought that Qing Chen was wasting time coming to Multiverse No. 136...
Now he's learned his lesson, never doubt this guy, or you'll quickly be proven wrong.
After a moment of thought, a man asked, "What do you want?"
Players in the top 1000 can buy C-Class Gene Medicine, limited to one purchase, and reselling it earns 1 million superconducting coins, or 500,000 in real currency.
At the end of each month, the rankings are finalized, and everyone can buy these rare items from the mall using the points earned last month.
"Two million superconducting coins per person to get you into the top 1000 and complete Multiverse No. 136," Qing Chen said calmly.
At this point, Qing Chen finally knew how to earn money for Yi's equipment: leading teams.
You see, in the Transcendence World, there are only three ways to become a Metahuman:
The first is to buy Gene Medicine and become a Gene Soldier, but the Gene Medicine available on the market only goes up to B-Class, and they're not easy to acquire.
The second is to complete multiverses, obtain professional inheritance, and then kill monsters to level up in the multiverse. Each level up automatically teaches new skills, and your body becomes stronger. It's pretty similar to Cultivation in the real world, just that the Cultivation process is replaced by monster slaying.
The third is to enter the top ten and directly achieve A-Class enlightenment. Once successful, you not only become a Metahuman in the real world but also have corresponding power in the Virtual Realm.
But this path is incredibly difficult.
More than 365 multiverses have been cleared to more than sixty levels.
In other words, the Virtual Realm already has more than 60 professions, including Necromancers, Fire Mages, Ice Mages, Shadow Assassins, Bear Druids, and so on...
Mages have the highest status, followed by assassins.
These professions are almost monopolized by the great masters who have completed the multiverses, forming their own forces.
The benefits a completed multiverse brings to the completer are absolutely enormous.
It's a world of endless possibilities.
Fff whispered to Qing Chen, "Boss, don't sell it so cheaply. The benefits of these completion rewards are too great, you're selling at a loss. Multiverse No. 136 is an intelligence-based dungeon, making it a very difficult multiverse to complete. The profession gained must be exceptionally powerful, definitely a Mage."
Upon hearing this, the three couples immediately said, "You can't raise the price like that! We'll buy it at the agreed-upon price! Deal!"
Actually, these six people can sell their Gene Medicine shares to recoup their costs, so it's like they're spending about 500,000 in real currency to buy an extraordinary profession.
For wealthy people, it's still a good deal.
Qing Chen asked with a smile, "What do you guys do in the real world?"
The man said, "My code name is Lanshan, I live in Storm City, and I'm a noble of Storm City. White Light, come to my place in Storm City, I'll treat you well. Of course, don't forget us when you have any good opportunities."
After saying this, he shook hands with Qing Chen and transferred the money for all six people in one go!
Qing Chen was amused. Judging by his tone, his family background seems similar to Hu Xiaoniu's, another rich kid?
He loves working with rich kids.
Besides, he's going to Storm City soon, so can he utilize his identity?
He has a place to stay.
After careful consideration, Qing Chen said, "I'm actually going to Storm City to play... By the way, if you have friends who want to complete the multiverse, you can come find me."
Lanshan's eyes lit up: "I'll notify them right away!"
Isn't that how the industrial chain is formed?
The outside world waited anxiously for more than twenty minutes, wondering what happened.
What kind of difficult level could trap White Light? Everyone suddenly became curious...
"Moving, moving! Level 163!"
"No, it's already level 164!"
After a brief pause, the number of levels completed by Qing Chen's team surged suddenly, unstoppable!
Everyone silently waited. As the number of completed levels surpassed 200 and approached 300, the onlookers became numb.
They all wondered who White Light was. After slaughtering small groups, he can complete one dungeon a day...
Full combat power and full intelligence?
They say God is fair, but this is a bit ridiculous!
Full combat power and full intelligence?
They say God is fair, but this is a bit ridiculous!
When Qing Chen's team broke through level 300, everyone was numb; completion seemed inevitable.
However, it was at this moment that all eight people in the team, including Qing Chen, entered the top 1000 of the monthly rankings!
Eight people in means eight people out, this is a real benefit!
All the onlookers involuntarily looked at the completion record: 351 minutes, completed!
It's really completed!
At this time, everyone began to care about one thing!
Every time a new profession is born from completion, it's the most exciting moment, because the birth of a new profession means that the past combat ecosystem will be changed.
For example, before the Shadow Assassin's birth, Mages had the supreme position, bullying everyone, driving everyone crazy.
After the Bear Warrior profession was born, Shadow Assassins started to be countered; they couldn't hit...
More than 60 professions have reached a balance. Everyone knows who to avoid. Now that there's a new profession, no one knows what will happen.
As they say, each version has its own god. Who knows if a new god will appear with a new profession?
If White Light slaughtering the teams was just a small matter, at most just gaining some exposure, now, as one of more than 60 completion pioneers, he's already qualified to be written into the Virtual Realm's history!
At that moment, a player with the ID Lanshan posted: "I'm one of the completion pioneers, and my profession is the Thunder Mage!"
This was a deal Lanshan made with Qing Chen. He paid an extra 500,000 superconducting coins to be the first to announce it, to show off a bit...
Qing Chen agreed. Rich kids, they crave face.
Someone gasped, it's a Mage profession indeed.
Wait, in the Virtual Realm, Mages are weak in close combat, extremely fragile; once approached, they're certain to die.
But White Light is different! Once White Light uses Gene Medicine, what will everyone play? Who can restrain him?
Or, can he restrain everyone?!
A Shadow Assassin cautiously approached, trying to fight with daggers, but found that he still couldn't beat a Mage? That's so tragic.
Just then, someone suddenly exclaimed on the street, "Wait, why is White Light appearing on the challenger list for Multiverse 136 again?!"
Everyone looked, and sure enough, "J' entered the challenge sequence again, and seven others were speed-running Multiverse No. 136 with him.
This time, it's even faster than before. In just over ten minutes, the team reached level 31...
Just finished, and already starting a business?
Can this White Light really guarantee that he can complete it every time? Shouldn't the first thing you do after getting a profession be to go kill monsters to level up...
Now the problem is: if White Light can consistently lead teams to complete the multiverse, wouldn't that mean 7 Thunder Mages are born every six hours?
No, everyone looked at the new round of completion time. This time White Light is getting faster, it seems that in just three hours, he'll complete it again.
Efficient speedrunning, this is terrifying.
The key is that it's not just about the birth of new professions; everyone calculated that, with White Light's efficiency, he can speedrun once every three hours, meaning 7 players originally in the top 1000 will be squeezed out...
From the moment Qing Chen led people to complete the multiverse, those watching weren't just onlookers; there were all the S-class combat masters in the Virtual Realm, as well as various forces!
Everyone realized something: a newcomer is changing the landscape of the Virtual Realm!
Before today, White Light was nothing to the big shots, but now it's completely different.
There are four major guilds in the Virtual Realm: Storm, Phoenix, Blackwater, and Silver, corresponding to the four cities on the West Continent.
They are extremely sensitive, and members within the four major guilds have started using FFF's auction platform account to send him private messages frantically.
However, FFF has no time to look at private messages now?
Outside the villa in Multiverse No. 136, FFF held a small white flag, looking at the dozens of people in front of him and said, "Come on, everyone line up in groups of seven. We'll go one team at a time; everyone has a chance! Listen, to improve efficiency, we have only one rule: after entering the multiverse, listen to commands, don't ask questions, don't act alone, pay first, and the consequences of not completing the challenge are your own responsibility."
Fff continued, "We'll have many more opportunities to cooperate, such as leading everyone to kill monsters, leading everyone to complete other multiverses... If anyone acts alone, we'll put you on the blacklist."
As the crowd outside the villa grew, the originally quiet Multiverse No. 136 became lively...
All the Storm City rich kids called by Lanshan were lining up obediently. FFF felt a sense of accomplishment. In the past, these privileged rich kids would never have given him a second glance!
Qing Chen didn't expect that before even arriving in Storm City, he had already gathered a group of Storm City's elite young people.
Qing Chen also discussed with FFF that leading teams one by one is too slow.
He discovered that the levels he saw after each completion were different; there was no overlap.
In other words, once Qing Chen completes 20 times, he will experience all 6666 rooms. Then he will compile the solutions to all the rooms into a guide, and they will make money by selling guides...
Fff thought it was a waste to sell the completed profession so casually, but Qing Chen's answer was, "Who says I can only complete this multiverse?"
After more than twenty hours of continuous work, Qing Chen finally went offline, putting aside all the troubles of the Virtual Realm.
They are about to reach the West Continent, and the coastline has appeared on the radar of the Dominating Vessel Air Fortress!
