Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game
Chapter 579 - 298: Where Dreams Begin, The Shadow Slayer Fist Sword_1
[...]
[Following the guidance of the ’Disciple Holy Land Seat Certificate’, you arrive at the 11th Council Hall...]
[The host’s platform and many seats within the council hall are empty, clearly, it’s not time for the meeting yet.]
[Alone, you step in front of the host’s platform where a stack of blank notes is placed.]
[Do you want to leave a message on the note?] 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Leaving a note is a way to bypass the ’Book of Letters’. You don’t need to know the other party’s soul imprint, knowing their alias in the New World is enough to send them a private message.
Amos, being the eleventh disciple, could send private messages to all the apostles under him from the 11th council hall. Except for the sender and receiver of the private message, nobody else could see the message on the note.
However, Lin Xun suspected that as long as he left a message here, Amos would definitely know its content.
He set the target of the note as male boss and typed, ’You Honor Amos, I am proud to have successfully completed the five difficulties.’
Not long after the note was left, the figure of Amos appeared in the council hall.
[Amos: You became quite fast; your growth speed is astonishing.]
[Blood King: Thanks to your honorable million spirit support, I was able to buy strong equipment to quickly pass the Chapters. I must say, your foresight is commendable.]
[Amos: ...]
[Amos: Stop flattering. Rapid promotion is like gambling with all you have. Winning brings riches, while losing will halt your advancements, leaving you no chance to continue.]
[If the disciple competition wasn’t coming soon, I wouldn’t rush your advancement to the fifth difficulty level.]
[For the time being, don’t think about advancing to the sixth level. Go to the library, build up your strength, and prepare for the disciple competition. Focus all your energy on the competition.]
[You have received an ’Invitation for the Easter Egg Chapter’ (Props)!]
[’Invitation for the Easter Egg Chapter’ (Props): Possessing this prop will allow you to enter the designated easter egg Chapter - 326 at a specified time!]
[Remaining Time: 8 days, 3 hours, 52 minutes, 19 seconds]
[Please note, this easter egg Chapter is a ’Slaughter Mode’. If you wish to refuse to join the easter egg Chapter, please destroy this prop as soon as possible!]
"So, it indeed is the Slaughter Mode, the name itself is bloody, not sure what the specific rules are..."
Slaughter Mode has many variations, each easter egg Chapter has a unique Slaughter Mode, but they all pose a threat to the Apostle’s real life, regarded as one of the most dangerous modes.
Lin Xun couldn’t help but sigh. The villain organization, befitting its reputation, doesn’t value lives, even if it’s their own people.
Just as he was lamenting, he saw the serial number of the easter egg Chapter and was thunderstruck.
Chapter 326... Chapter 326!
From Chapter 320 to 329 in the main storyline are ten complete Chapters of the Blood Sun World!
This easter egg Chapter’s number coincides with the ones in the main storyline!
"Is there a connection between the easter egg Chapter and the main storyline?"
[Amos: The ’Slaughter Mode’ of this easter egg Chapter is extremely dangerous! If your shell is killed, you will be resurrected as a Wandering Soul in a hidden, independent resurrection point and will be subject to quite a lengthy death penalty.]
[During the death penalty period, you can’t use the spirit intensity to reshape the shell!]
[If other candidates find your wandering soul during this period, the consequences are needless to say, soul scattering will be inevitable, reducing you to a dead end...]
[You must fight with all your might for even a slim chance of success in this competition.]
[Every disciple competition is a new distribution of forces. If you have a chance to eliminate other apostles, never spare them!]
[Because for each competing opponent you defeat, the greater the influence you will inherit as the Twelfth Disciple!]
Lin Xun froze.
During the death penalty period, the soul strength cannot be used to reshape the shell?
Other apostles only have one shell; once killed, they can only exist as Wandering Souls until the penalty period ends...
But he is different, he has twelve shells including Star Lord Canis, Ninja Master, Yiye Palace Master, Little Dragon, Earth Giant, and other main forces...
Even during the penalty period, if unable to reshape the dead shell, he could still occupy the other main force shells.
To him, the death penalty is... nothing!
"So, the one being screwed here was me..."
[Amos: Not meaning to belittle you, but those participating in the Disciple Election, aside from a few nobodies, the rest are all elite apostles, some even powerful enough to level up to seventh difficulty, yet they choose to remain at sixth. All for the sake of seizing this disciple position.]
[This easter egg Chapter belongs to one of the special plots of the Blood Sun World. Special events, which wouldn’t show up in the regular Chapters, could be experienced...]
[Perhaps you haven’t experienced the Blood Sun World. It’s a nightmare world far exceeding normal difficulty. Even if you can achieve S-rank in regular Chapters, it doesn’t mean you can make it through the Blood Sun World.]
[That’s right! Being a disciple is so difficult and cruel. You not only have to deal with monsters far beyond the normal difficulty level, but also carefully guard against attacks from competitors. A slight negligence would lead to nothing but death!]
"So, the easter egg Chapter and the regular Chapter really are connected!"
Unique events that will not appear in the regular Blood Sun World could occur in the easter egg Chapter.
