Global Grave Digging: My Reward Increased Ten Thousand Times

80: Kill the old bitch and take first place”Tsk tsk, the people from Zhenwu are so poor!”

Xu Zhengyang kicked away the few boxes dropped by the Zhenwu Squad.

Inside, there were only a few bottles of ordinary recovery potions and some basic Materials, not even a single white-grade Rune Stone.

”It seems all the good stuff was transferred away by them in advance.”

Lin Mengzi thought thoughtfully.

”There were two squads in total, but we only saw this one.”

”That should be the case. We’ve already earned a lot; taking first place will earn us even more!”

Lin Fei didn’t seem to care at all.

”How many squads are left?”

Lin Mengzi checked the System prompt in the Killing Space.

【Current surviving squads: 6】

”There are five enemy squads left.”

Emerging from the small path, they entered the final circle.

This was a barren meadow, dotted with Stone Forest scattered throughout.

Lin Mengzi raised her hand, and a demonic bird, resembling a crow and composed of bones and Soul fire, flew out from her sleeve.

It quickly merged into the thick fog above.

This was a type of demonic bird she had killed on the sixth floor, specifically used for reconnaissance and vigilance.

This thing was even more powerful than thermal imaging glasses; it could track human Auras.

Furthermore, Lin Mengzi could share her vision with the summoned demonic bird to conduct aerial reconnaissance.

Lin Mengzi closed her eyes, connecting her consciousness to the demonic bird high above.

Her vision instantly soared, piercing through layers of purple mist, taking in the scene of the Stone Forest below.

She carefully searched every possible hiding spot.

Soon, a bright smile bloomed on Lin Mengzi’s face.

”Found them! To the southeast, in a thicket of stone stalagmites about four kilometers away. It’s the Angela Conglomerate people; there are two squads left, six people in total, lurking sneakily.”

”As long as we can find these people, they are easy to kill.”

Lin Fei said with Killing Intent, ”Sister, I’ll leave them to you.”

”Received!”

Lin Mengzi opened her eyes, Soul fire flickering within them, and pointed her wand forward!

Hum!

The mountain-sized Eight-Armed Demon Elephant appeared out of thin air.

”Eight-Armed, kill all six of them.”

The Eight-Armed Demon Elephant nodded.

Then it took a step, like a moving hill, and launched an unstoppable charge toward the thicket of stone stalagmites in the southeast!

”Oh my, talk about outsourcing!” Lin Fei chuckled.

Thump, thump, thump. The ground shook, kicking up rolling smoke and dust.

Not only that, with Lin Mengzi’s continuous casting, the Undead Hounds, Chainsaw Butcher, Undead Giant Infant, and Alligator Demon were all released one by one.

In the thicket of stone stalagmites.

”Captain, there seems to be movement over there!” A team member lowered his voice, pointing in the direction where the distant thick fog was churning.

The Angel Leader raised his binoculars, observing with a grave expression.

Rumble... Rumble... The sound of the ground shaking grew closer; a behemoth was approaching at high speed!

Soon, a massive, ferocious figure burning with ghostly blue Soul fire rapidly enlarged in their field of vision.

That mountain-like physique, the pale bone armor covering its entire body, and eight terrifying arms wielding lightning giant hammers!

”What the hell! What kind of monster is that?!”

”That thing is the boss from the Thunder God Temple; surely this thing can’t run out of the temple to hunt down players?!”

”This eighth-floor killing trial is indeed difficult!”

They thought that thing was a lord. But somehow, it felt like the appearance and Aura of this one were even scarier than the Boss that awakened in the Thunder God Temple before!

”I bet there will be a reward for taking it down!”

”Fire! Focus fire and take it down!” the Angel Leader roared.

Rat-tat-tat-tat! Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh! Boom-boom-boom!

The firearms in their hands transformed, and energy gathered crazily. Then, flames of light shot out! They poured fire toward the charging Eight-Armed Demon Elephant as if ammo were free!

However! Those bullets and energy beams capable of tearing through armor only splashed a series of tiny sparks and bone dust against the thick 【Bone Armor】 on the Eight-Armed Demon Elephant’s surface, unable to cause any effective damage at all!

Even if an attack occasionally pierced the bone armor, it would be quickly repaired by the rich death energy circulating within the demon elephant’s body!

”This thing is actually so hard to kill?”

”Damn it! Retreat first!”

”Roar!!!” The Eight-Armed Demon Elephant let out a deafening roar.

Completely ignoring the incoming hail of bullets, it charged like a wild bull, slamming fiercely into the thicket of stone stalagmites!

Boom! Crack! The tall stone pillars were easily snapped like rotten wood.

The Eight-Armed Demon Elephant’s eight giant arms, covered in bone armor, swung wildly, and the lightning stone hammers fell like a game of whack-a-mole!

”Quick, condense an energy shield!”

Bang, bang, bang! Screams rang out instantly!

The nano-combat suits and protective shields that the Angela Conglomerate soldiers were proud of were fragile in the face of this terrifying power.

In a single encounter, three soldiers were blasted into charcoal by the lightning hammers.

Meanwhile, the agile Undead Hounds and Chainsaw Butcher flanked them, surrounding the remaining three soldiers!

”No!! Why are there zombies here? These aren’t even monsters from the same map?!”

The Angel Leader’s eyes were about to pop out. How could monsters from the Zombie World run here? This is the Eternal Tribulation Trial Grounds?!

Is this reasonable? It’s like playing poker, and the opponent plays a mahjong tile and asks if you want it?

”Activate optical camouflage!” ”Retreat first!”

They immediately activated their nano-suits’ optical camouflage. Afterward, their entire bodies seemed to become transparent.

But it was useless. A night crow with purple eyes had been circling in the sky, elegantly watching below; even though the three activated optical camouflage, they couldn’t escape its tracking lock.

Immediately, several Undead Hounds lunged at them, blood splattered out, and sharp bone claws tore through their combat suits in an instant!

Following that, the terrifying chainsaw swung over! Vroom, vroom, vroom! Flesh and blood flew everywhere!

”Ah!!!!!” With the last few screams, the last three players from the Angela Conglomerate also gloriously typed gg!

Everything returned to silence.

【Teammate Lin Mengzi has killed...】

【Teammate Lin Mengzi has killed...】

Six kill notifications quickly flashed across the screen.

”Done.” Lin Mengzi retracted her wand, a relaxed smile appearing on her face.

”Three squads left.”

Lin Fei looked at the map; the white safe circle was steadily shrinking.

”Boss, I found one too! There’s movement in a patch of grass!” Xu Zhengyang’s voice came through Lin Fei’s earpiece.

Xu Zhengyang had also gone out to fight alone. He held his Flame M4.

Thanks to the blessing of the 【Eagle Eye Sharpening】 Rune Stone, his dynamic vision and long-range enemy tracking ability had been greatly improved.

”Can you handle it?” Lin Fei asked.

”No problem.”

Xu Zhengyang wanted to prove his strength, so he snuck over quietly.

It was in a patch of dense, knee-high purple grass about two kilometers to his front left.

There were three blurry black shadows that were almost integrated with the environment. They were lying there motionless, like three vipers waiting for prey.

”It’s those old sly foxes wearing ghillie suits!” Xu Zhengyang sneered, ”They really have patience; they didn’t run even after we made such a big commotion.”

”Slaughter them.” Lin Fei said indifferently.

”Just watch!”

A flash of excitement crossed Xu Zhengyang’s eyes, the Gunfire Master class Aura lit up, and the energy in his body began to converge toward his firearm!

He didn’t shoot immediately but took a deep breath, concentrating highly, and entered a mysterious state.

”Watch this! Five-fold speed shooting!”

Hum! The muzzle of the Flame M4 shone brightly! The next second! Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!!!

A violent barrage poured out like a volcanic eruption! Under five-fold speed shooting, he could ignore the M4’s magazine capacity and pour out bullets crazily.

Pfft, pfft, pfft! The sound of bullets entering flesh merged into one!

Those three old sly fox players lying on the ground didn’t even have a chance to fight back or run before they were riddled with holes by this sudden barrage that scattered like flowers falling from the sky!

【Xu Zhengyang killed player Sniper...】

【Xu Zhengyang killed player...】

Three kill notifications popped up.

”Nice!” Lin Fei nodded approvingly. Xu Zhengyang was becoming more and more powerful after getting the purple rune.

A few minutes later. 【Warning! The Thundercloud Storm has swallowed the outer area! Player squad ’Biruong Squad’ has been eliminated!】

The System prompt sounded again. A squad had been struck dead by the rapidly moving Thundercloud Storm on the periphery because they failed to enter the safe zone in time.

【Current surviving squads: 2】

Only the last two squads were left! Lin Fei immediately checked the map.

The final safe zone had shrunk to an area with a radius of less than fifty meters, centered on the altar.

Except for themselves, no red dots representing enemies could be seen on the map!

”Hmm? Where is the last person?” Xu Zhengyang also noticed something wrong, raising his gun and vigilantly looking around at the purple mist filling the area, ”Hiding?”

Lin Mengzi also released the night crow to conduct aerial reconnaissance, but it also found nothing.

Within a fifty-meter radius, except for broken stone pillars and scattered gravel, no trace of any player could be seen!

Time passed minute by minute. The safe zone continued to shrink, and Lin Fei and the others stood in the center of the safe zone waiting.

Watching the Thundercloud Storm approach, they just couldn’t find that last player.

”It’s strange, it’s really weird, where is the person?”

”Could he be invisible? But my night crow should be able to detect current invisible units, right?” Lin Mengzi said in surprise.

Lin Fei also narrowed his eyes.

Sure enough, when out on a trial, one cannot underestimate the enemy; even if he could defeat everyone head-on, the trial always had game rules.

Although the opponent’s strength was inferior to theirs, if they could reasonably utilize the rules, sometimes they could cause them quite a bit of trouble.

Just like now, the last enemy could not be found for a long time. It was as if they had evaporated into thin air.

The Thundercloud Storm kept shrinking; Lin Fei and the others could already feel the terrifying arcs of electricity in the black-purple cloud mass on the periphery.

Lightning jumped and flashed. The roaring sound grew closer and closer.

Forty meters... thirty meters... twenty meters...

Soon, the safe zone was left with only a small area with a radius of ten meters!

Beyond that was the Thundercloud Storm, where purple lightning constantly fell and touching it meant death!

But that last enemy was still like air, completely traceless!

”Tsk tsk, something is wrong!”

Lin Fei’s brows furrowed tightly, and his sharp gaze swept across the ground beneath his feet.

No footsteps, no energy fluctuations, not even a trace of hidden Aura could be felt. This isn’t normal!

”Can’t find anyone on the ground.” A flash of inspiration struck Lin Fei’s mind! Or rather, the opponent wasn’t on the ground at all.

”Earth-tunneling Spell?!” Cold light exploded in Lin Fei’s eyes, ”Want to hide underground and be the last sly fox? You’re dreaming!”

Suddenly, the earth-tunneling mage down below, whose teammates had been killed by the Angela Squad, had a horrified expression.

He was a special Earth-element mage; when opening treasure chests, he had obtained the Wu Earth Mage class. So his skill tree was different from Lin Fei’s.

Earth tunneling was one of his skills.

However, after the horror, the mage gritted his teeth.

’So what if you discovered me?’

’I’m hiding underground, can you hit me?’

’When the Thundercloud comes, you will definitely be the first to be electrocuted to death. I am determined to win this time!’

He had already started fantasizing.

After getting the Gold Treasure Chest, if his luck was still good, he could open it to obtain a bright red Epic-grade Rune Stone.

And usually, opening treasure chests yielded treasures suitable for one’s own class!

”He’s underground?” Xu Zhengyang said in surprise; if that was the case, it would be quite tricky.

They currently didn’t have any skills that could attack underground. Even if they used grenade launchers, it would be hard to hit very deep.

Lin Fei frowned.

”There’s no air underground; even earth tunneling requires breathing. He can’t hide too deep.”

He suddenly raised his foot and stomped hard on the ground. The force of 500 tons shook violently.

Suddenly, the person below felt like they were going to be shaken to death by the vibration force transmitted down.

But fortunately, he was not at the center of the force, and the thick soil absorbed most of the impact.

”Want to snatch first place from me!”

Lin Fei immediately mobilized the surging Ice elemental power in his body!

”Extreme Icefall!!”

Rumble!!! The sky seemed to be torn open by a huge gap!

Two huge ice-blue meteorites, nearly two meters in diameter and exuding a chill enough to freeze the Soul, descended from the sky with an Aura of destroying everything!

They smashed fiercely onto the seemingly unremarkable ground!

Boom!!!—An indescribable terrifying impact force erupted instantly!

The hard ground was like paper, instantly smashed to pieces and collapsed!

A huge ice pit with a diameter of over ten meters and unfathomable depth suddenly appeared!

Piercing cold air spread crazily to the surroundings, freezing a thick layer of frost on the edges of the pit!

After the ice pit formed! Swoosh!

A disheveled figure was finally shaken out from deep underground by this sudden violent vibration and cold air!

It was a short player wearing earth-yellow mage clothing, with a look of horror and disbelief on his face.

He used the earth-tunneling skill and had been lurking deep underground, wanting to wait until the last moment, relying on surviving to get first place.

But he didn’t expect to be forced out directly by Lin Fei in such a violent way!

The cold air below was piercing, and his rapid movement using earth tunneling consumed a lot of energy and required a lot of Qi. He had to run out to catch his breath.

”Fuck!!”

The mage player let out an exasperated roar; while in mid-air, he forcibly twisted his body and quickly formed hand seals with both hands.

”Earth Spell: Yellow Springs Swamp.”

He tried to turn the area below into a quicksand swamp that devoured everything, trapping the three of them.

”Finally came out.”

Lin Fei’s eyes were cold and ruthless; he raised a hand. Dozens of Superspeed Icy Arrows shot out!!

Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft!!! The ice-blue rain of arrows tore through the sky!

The earth-mage player hadn’t even finished forming his seals before his body was instantly pierced by the dense ice arrows!

Thump! His body, like a broken rag doll, fell heavily to the bottom of the cold pit and made no more sound.

【You killed player Dark Sly Fox...】

【Congratulations! Your squad ’Mount Buzhou Squad’ has successfully won the final victory of this trial!! Calculating rewards!】

Watching the last enemy turn into a box and hearing the System’s pleasant victory notification, Lin Fei, Lin Mengzi, and Xu Zhengyang finally let out a long sigh of relief.
