Chapter 274: Chapter 190: Double the Overwhelming! (Three-in-one, 5/5)_3 After all, they had already launched into a killing spree. Whether they devoured this piece of meat was insignificant. Furthermore, Chen Mo’s position was still far from the central area. Naturally, no one was particularly interested in him anymore. They all knew he would come to them, so they might as well wait for him in the central area. With everyone moving towards the central area, Chen Mo also made his way there. At this moment, only a little over 500 people were left in the instance. Though nearly half were dead, the remaining five hundred were still a sizable number. Moreover, with everyone rushing to the central area, there were quite a few encounters on the way. Soon, there were more kill notifications. By the time the seventh hour arrived, only a little over 400 remained in the instance. [The Heavenly Path’s Hint: The current time is the seventh hour. The poisonous fog is now closing in at a rate of 2 meters per second! Please be sure to avoid it.] It seems every hour increases the contraction speed by one meter per second. In that case, by the eleventh hour, the poison circle will probably shrink to a distance of just one kilometer from the central area. Does that mean the safe zone for the final battle will only be a kilometer in diameter? A circle with an area of one million square meters... it’s not tiny, but it’s definitely not large. Just like that Doomsday Mage before; the range of his doomsday spell could cover the entire safe zone. There would be nowhere to hide. The other participants had also roughly calculated this information, and a final area of one square kilometer seemed a bit small. Everyone was uncertain if they could survive unscathed within such a small final area. They decided to start the killing early. This was a thought that resonated well with Chen Mo. He, too, thought the final area was too small. It would be easy for his Skeleton Monster troops to be wiped out. This type of combat environment wasn’t very favorable for him. Thus, he quickened his pace, intending to eliminate everyone before the final area shrank to that size. For a while, everyone thought alike, which made them all lean more towards fighting. Meanwhile, the three who held an Infinite Coordinate Tool tried to keep far away from Chen Mo’s location. They were confident about dealing with others but not with the inexplicable existence that was Chen Mo. So much time had passed, yet no one had obtained the fifth Infinite Coordinate Tool. This was because an instance would only drop a maximum of four identical items. This explained why Chen Mo had experienced such trouble in finding three identical items. As long as two of the same item were obtained by others first, Chen Mo would never be able to find the third piece of that item. With the intensifying threat of the toxic fog, everyone’s intention to fight also escalated. Soon, a series of kill notifications from the Heavenly Path appeared. Chen Mo joined the fray, killing quite a few more. As the ninth hour arrived, Chen Mo’s kill count had reached 100. The number of survivors in the instance had fallen to fewer than fifty. Outside, everyone who was following the match was shocked by Chen Mo’s performance. So many second-transition, full-star experts were gathered together, yet the one with the most kills was a Non-Rebirth individual only at level 20. This was indeed deeply shocking to everyone. This was a display of pure, hard power crushing them. "He’s too strong! How many did the others manage to kill at most?" Everyone checked the kill counts of all participants. Chen Mo, with 100 kills—a three-digit figure—was far ahead of the runner-up’s fifty kills. "Even the strongest among these aliens only managed fifty kills! Our hero from Earth has crushed them with double that number!" "I wonder why he suddenly stopped teleporting earlier. Otherwise, he would have slaughtered his way through by now." "I guess he was restricted by some item in this instance. I’ve heard these event instances have lots of nasty, powerful items. They might seem fun in entertainment mode, but in Slaughter Mode, they’re literally a matter of life and death!" "This just further demonstrates how awesome our hero from Earth is! He’s thriving and killing opponents of higher tiers as if it’s child’s play, even in an instance full of strange abilities. He’s just too strong!" "I bet the people from the Yongming Star System are absolutely fuming right now." "Haha, definitely! They’re probably slamming tables and chairs." "This is what they get for messing with us! While we were minding our own business, focusing on growing our strength, they suddenly came and stirred up trouble. Damn it! Now we finally have a powerhouse on our side. They’re dead meat! Just wait until our hero reaches the fifth-transition; he’ll slaughter everyone from the Yongming Star System in the Tower of Eternity!" "I bet they’re already trying to find clues about our hero worldwide. Everyone, keep your eyes peeled! If you come across anyone trying to dig up information about our hero, report it immediately. It could be aliens trying to gather intelligence!" Meanwhile, at the Yongming Star System headquarters, Rangu was indeed furious. He had noticed Chen Mo’s power early on. But he had still harbored some hope, hoping that Chen Mo would die of arrogance in this instance. But instead, Chen Mo had triumphed all the way, his kill count skyrocketing to number one on the map, even surpassing the second place by double. The participants from their Yongming Star System only had thirty kills so far. If it were possible to communicate in real-time between the instance and the outside world, the higher-ups of the Yongming Star System would have long ago ordered their participant inside the instance to find a way to kill Chen Mo.
