Gamers Are Fierce-Chapter 857 - 856: Bounced Away

"Are you waking up..."

The Desolated Lion raised its massive head, looking at the constantly shaking and trembling dome. It seemed able to see through the ceiling, witnessing the rapidly collapsing floors.

"Go ahead."

The Desolated Lion turned to face the three demon generals under its command, "The collapse will soon reach this area.

Start from the tenth floor, move upward, clearing each floor without leaving anyone behind."

The three demon generals bowed their heads in submission,

The Qing Qiuhu waved a stabbing sword, activated teleportation, and disappeared from sight;

The Single Horned Evil Dragon twisted its massive snake-like body, swimming toward the dome opening;

The one-eyed figure known as "Rock Platform" stood upon a giant turtle, slightly bending its knees, its gigantic body leaping upwards like a cannonball, vanishing into the darkness through the dome opening.

The Desolated Lion turned to face the four cultivators, "As for you all..."

"We will go as well."

Dann Chenzi nodded, "We leave this place to the Demon King and the congregation."

With that, the four cultivators each flew into the opening and disappeared from sight.

Li Ang drove the armored vehicle, carrying Liu Wu Dai and the Wind Chaser group, speeding through the complex terrain,

beside them was a long, massive wooden python, ridden by Ju Zi, Bai Haozheng, and others.

Boom——

The overhead dome burst and collapsed, the metal framework embedded in the ceiling twisted and snapped, chunks of concrete fell, crashing behind the armored vehicle, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The pace of the collapse quickened, Li Ang stepped on the accelerator, unleashed Divine Power, causing a multitude of plant vines and flesh tendrils to grow all over the vehicle,

transforming it into a semblance of the Leviathan War Chariot that had appeared in the High-dimensional Hacking scripted mission before.

The vehicle accelerated sharply, drifting as it navigated corners,

only to find the tunnel adjacent to the road ahead suddenly bursting with a flood of mech beasts, with security guards of various models leading the charge forward.

Players and mech beast swarms raced side by side,

both parties had a tacit understanding not to attack each other, speeding towards the passageway in the soon-to-collapse floors.

Clang!

The semi-vegetative armored vehicle passed over a slope, soaring high like a golf ball, accurately falling towards the passage to the next floor.

Seeing the car header driven by inertia about to collide with the passage wall, a multitude of plant vines suddenly grew out from the vehicle, supporting the wall, keeping the vehicle vertically descending.

This is Divine Power...

The thought simultaneously arose in the minds of the Wind Chaser group sitting in the armored vehicle, the energy wave characteristics of Divine Power were quite distinctive, confirming the Global Occult Coalition's suspicion of Li Rising possessing Divine Power and being a divinity creature.

As the kill game has reached this stage, divinity cannot be considered either overly cheap or overly rare,

ordinary players, even if they acquire divinity, struggle to utilize it effectively.

Only by relying on large organizations can adequate support be attained.

Though Li Rising has always presented himself as a Lone Wolf Player, his relationship with the Special Affairs Bureau is quite good, maybe he has secretly joined the Special Affairs Bureau...

A torrential rain of mech beasts landed beside them, forming a mound in the lower floors, 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

The semi-vegetative armored vehicle extended its plant tendrils, landed on the edge of the mech beast mound, tires spinning fast, continuing towards the entrance to the next floor.

"According to the map given to us by the Nest, elevators on the 38th floor can descend directly to the 31st floor."

Li Ang turned the steering wheel, gravely saying, "The speed of the collapse is increasing, relying solely on the vehicle, even with the map, it might be too late.

Using the elevator is our one chance."

Liu Wu Dai leaned out of the car window,

nocked an arrow and shot, blasting away some falling debris, glanced at the instrument placed in front of the passenger seat, calmly saying, "The sound just now, analyzed by the detector, doesn't belong to any known animal on Earth.

The sound originated from all directions in the Lost World, but the loudest and strongest direction is from somewhere between the tenth and fifteenth floors."

"...That sound is likely the culprit of the floor's collapse."

Sitting cross-legged on the wooden mechanical python's back, Ju Zi took a deep breath,

while controlling the wooden python to swim forward, saying in a low voice, "At this rate, in three more hours it will collapse directly to the ground level.

Whether it's the System's setup, or the antics of the so-called Otherworldly Players,

they are forcing us to descend continuously.

If we stay here and get crushed by tons of debris, even if we survive, we will lose combat capability and mobility, missing the subsequent battle, naturally losing out on any rewards.

At the moment, we haven't received further notifications about the gate contest, meaning the number of surviving players hasn't dropped below fifty—this increases the likelihood the Nest is not deceiving us,

maybe there really are Otherworldly Transcendents, abducting Earth players and taking them to the lower floors."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent,

According to the description from the Nest, the overall strength of Otherworldly Players is already higher than theirs,

and those Otherworldly People seem to have some understanding of the Lost World and the gate contest rules.

"I wonder what happened to the Nest..."

Li Ang frowned slightly, asking without turning his head, "Is Ju Tianfu still alive?"

"Alive."

Bai Haozheng glanced at the Life Paper closely linked to Ju Tianfu, the paper hadn't withered or changed color, "The Nest probably already moved them to a safe location,

However, Ju Tianfu's body should still be in a confined and controlled environment—otherwise, he could cause self-harm and heal repeatedly, attempting to connect with the outside world."

After speaking, Bai Haozheng unobtrusively cast a glance at Li Ang,

in the last King of Shengnan mission, Li Rising used this method, employing Xing Hechou as a telephone to achieve ultra-long-distance communication.

But the average person doesn't possess such efficient and low-consuming healing abilities, making it hard to replicate.

"The Nest's migration pace is faster than ours."

Arlina said softly, "The frequency of Ju Tianfu and his group has completely vanished from the communicator, exceeding the range of two thousand five hundred meters."

"Can they run so fast with baggage and all?"

Li Ang furrowed his brow, pressed the accelerator again, and whispered to those in the car, "Everyone hold tight, I'm going to speed up."

————

Screech!

The enormous elevator shaft twisted and bent, with steel walls on all sides steadily pressing inward.

The Black Bear known as Shortface, stepping on a hovering metal plate, descended within the elevator shaft, pursuing the dozen human players below.

It raised an arm, pointing downward, unleashing gravity.

The Earth player targeted by its finger first stiffened, with limbs and torso pulled in different gravity directions, directly torn into several pieces, unable to surrender or forfeit, perishing on the spot.

Shortface pointed again, gravity in unknown form acted over the vast distance upon another player.

With a ripping sound, that player's neck was suddenly torn, and the head soared like a kite, defying gravity as it flew up the shaft.

Witnessing this, several nearby players showed fear in their faces, disappearing mysteriously from where they stood—choosing to surrender and forfeit directly.

"Damn it!"

David almost shattered his teeth,

Falling face-up, listening to the howling gale whistling past his ears, his palm suddenly launched the Judgement Spear.

The lightning-imbued spear instantly darted towards Shortface, but was halted abruptly ten meters away by intense gravity.

Shortface flicked its finger lightly, the Judgement Spear "dinged" heavily wedging into the nearby wall, embedding completely in the special steel.

However, in the moment of its slight distraction, David had already embedded his palm in the elevator shaft wall, stopping the descent, joining forces with Abel to kick open a seam in the elevator door, allowing everyone to climb out to the Lost World floor 27.

Ran away, huh?

There wasn't much expression on Shortface's furry face. If David and his group had remained in the elevator shaft for a little longer, maintaining the free-fall motion longer,

it could have deployed higher-level gravity control abilities subjecting these Earth Transcendents to hundreds or even higher gravitational acceleration...

Such a pity.

However, it didn't matter much now.

Shortface descended slowly, stepping on the hovering metal plate, arriving in front of the elevator door, waving a finger,

The heavy, wall-like elevator doors suddenly swung open, crashing to the ground, raising dust.

Outside the door was David, Abel, and others preparing for confrontation.
