The end of the world is approaching, I'm handing myself over to the country.

Some players frowned, but still opened the newly appeared event interface as instructed.

A simple but clear redemption list instantly filled his entire field of vision.

The thing at the very top of the list made everyone who saw it instinctively hold their breath.

[Rank A Source Weapon - Wind Slayer]

[Type: Long sword]

[Required Points: 10,000,000]

Overall combat strength: 76200

After a brief silence, the team chat exploded.

A female player with the ID "Share half of my milk tea" let out an incredulous exclamation.

"Holy crap! Are A-rank source soldiers really that terrifying? 76,000 combat power? I feel like one strike from them could shatter my love-struck brain along with that scumbag's skull!"

A player next to him, nicknamed "Keyboard Warrior," rubbed his eyes vigorously and counted the zeros at the end of the score again.

"Ten million points... Is that even a human being can type that many points? Did the store manager break the zero key on his keyboard?"

"Don't just look at the most expensive one! Keep looking!"

With a reminder, everyone lowered their gaze.

Besides that unattainable A-grade source weapon, there are also a large number of B-grade source weapons and various high-level potions below.

[Rank B Source Soldier - Bone Crusher (Combat Power: 18500), Points: 800,000]

[Advanced Gene Awakening Potion, Points: 500,000]

[Intermediate Gene Awakening Potion, Points: 100,000]

......

Looking at the dazzling array of goods, some players who were initially scared off by the A-level source weapons started to have their minds working again.

One of the more laid-back players in the team chuckled and said, "Not bad, not bad. This event is great. As long as I don't compete or fight, and just steadily kill some monsters and accumulate 100,000 points, I can even get a free high-level gene potion."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a lone wolf player who had been silent all along, exuding an aura of unapproachability, suddenly let out a cold laugh.

That person's ID was "One Sword Frost," and he was a ruthless individual with a name and reputation on the ladder rankings.

He glanced at the laid-back player and leisurely wiped his dagger.

"Not competing or fighting?"

"Then what are you doing in this godforsaken place? Becoming a war photographer, or developing ecotourism?"

A cold, sneer came softly, yet it reached the ears of everyone in the group with undisguised mockery.

He stopped looking at the laid-back player and fixed his gaze on the words "Zhanfeng" at the very top of the exchange list, as well as the breathtaking combat power stats.

Low-quality source soldiers are not uncommon on the market, but this is the first time that A-grade source soldiers have appeared in the sight of all players.

Ten million points.

This number would deter anyone, but for him, it only aroused a stronger desire to possess.

He didn't say anything, but he was determined to have that knife.

The sarcastic words still echoed in the air, and the Buddhist player who was called out was a little embarrassed and was about to retort.

Just then, a soft, strangely alluring laugh suddenly rang out from the depths of the forest.

"Giggle..."

The laughter seemed to resonate directly in everyone's hearts, causing all the players to freeze in their tracks.

"They arrived pretty quickly, but... the real show is just beginning."

The moment the words left his mouth, a sudden change occurred!

Forest smiled gently, her slender white fingers lightly touching the air.

boom--!

The ground beneath the players' feet trembled violently, as if some enormous creature was churning underground.

The next second, countless dark green vines burst forth from the ground!

These vines, intertwined and twisted, grew with a sharp, piercing sound as they lunged at all the players from all directions!

"Holy crap! What is that?!"

"Get out of the way!"

The surrounding area was instantly filled with terrified screams.

Some players who reacted a little slower were impaled by several vines before they could even make any dodge maneuvers.

puff!

The dull thuds of sharp weapons piercing flesh rang out one after another.

Those players didn't even have time to utter a scream before their bodies froze on the spot, their life force dissipating at a visible speed.

I shared half of my milk tea with him and watched helplessly as a teammate next to me was impaled in the chest by vines and hung high in the air. I was so frightened that I turned pale and instinctively took a step back.

But Yi Jian Shuang Han's reaction was extremely fast.

The instant the vines broke through the soil, he ducked and charged forward, his B-grade dagger flashing as he slashed fiercely at an oncoming vine.

clang!

The expected scene of severing the vine in two did not occur. Instead, the dagger collided with the vine, producing a crisp sound like metal clashing!

A tremendous force of recoil came from the hilt of the knife, making his hand go numb.

A sword's frost-like pupils suddenly contracted.

Although he didn't use his full strength in that strike, it was enough to easily cut down any plant-like monsters he had encountered before.

But the vines in front of us only left a white mark on the surface!

"Cut it off!"

With a low shout, Yi Jian Shuang Han channeled all his strength into his arm and swung his sword once more!

This time, the dagger finally cut deep into the vines, and with a teeth-grinding scraping sound, the tough vines were severed.

Instead of green sap, a dark red, blood-like viscous liquid flowed from the broken surface.

But this attack caused Yi Jian Shuang Han's face to darken completely.

The vines here are several times tougher than the vines of any of the plant monsters we've encountered before!

Even his B-rank Origin Soldier would need to go all out to cut it off!

"Be careful!" he immediately yelled in the regional channel, "These vines are too tough, don't try to tough them out!"

However, his reminder came too late.

More players discovered this, and the situation became even more chaotic.

"No way! This thing is impossible to cut!"

"What is this? Why is its defense so high?!"

With a swift kick, Yi Jian Shuang Han shoved aside a vine that had been pulled away, looked up and scanned the battlefield. Then, he saw a scene that made his scalp tingle.

The bodies of the players whose bodies were pierced by vines were shriveling up at an abnormal rate.

The vines that pierced through their bodies had strange red patterns on their surface, like blood vessels, greedily sucking away the players' life force.

In just a few seconds, a living player was turned into a dried-up corpse!

So this is their real attack method!

Yi Jian Shuang Han's heart sank to the bottom.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch," Yi Jian Shuang Han muttered to himself.

Looking again at the A-grade source weapon worth ten million points on the virtual screen, he felt it was incredibly dazzling: "No wonder the highest reward is an A-grade source weapon."

Fear spread rapidly among the players.

A player with a combat power of just over 10,000, after barely dodging a piercing attack, saw his teammate turn into a dried-up corpse and his mental defenses began to crumble.

"Run! Run now!"
