at the same time.

The Land of Mist, at the border between the East and South districts.

"Boom!"

The sky shattered, and a gigantic hand of mist, ten times larger than the one in the Eye of Judgment plaza, descended from the sky like five pillars reaching to the heavens, fiercely grabbing at a colossal figure in the center of the wasteland.

What a terrifying existence that was!

Its body is so enormous that it connects heaven and earth. Just one of its arthropod-like "legs" that protrudes below the clouds is like a gray pillar supporting the sky, its surface covered with ancient and intricate divine patterns.

This is a true peak-level 9th-tier creature!

"roar--!!!"

The ninth-tier being let out a roar that shattered the clouds, attempting to resist the giant hand of mist.

However, it was all in vain.

The moment the giant hand of mist grasped it, the powerful 9th-tier being was like an insect being pinched by the scruff of its neck, helplessly lifted off the ground and dragged into the endless deep space.

On a small hill in the wilderness, ten kilometers away from this main battlefield.

Three figures were coldly watching all of this.

Standing on the far left was a terrifying figure nearly four meters tall. His entire body was covered in a menacing, thick bio-armor, and beneath his white bio-helmet, two green flames flickered slightly.

He is none other than Ron, one of the three Tier 8 giants of the Zerg and the strongest of the Karen race.

As Ron watched the ninth-tier creature that connected heaven and earth being taken away without any resistance, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

"Back then, it was this colossal celestial beast that destroyed our entire city of Kairen..."

"Yet such a powerful being is as laughable as an ant before the being behind that mist..."

Ron clenched his massive fist. "Clearly, the power behind this is something we simply cannot contend with."

Standing beside Ron was another Tier 8 giant of the Zerg, a powerful figure from the "Parasitic Zerg"—Lance.

Lance controlled Mercury's face, revealing a cold smile, "Tch... This is clearly our Zerg territory, yet the entity behind it all wants to exclude us from the game."

Opportunities are always created by oneself, not given by others.

The figure standing on the far right slowly spoke.

It was a creature with the exquisite face of a human woman, but on her back grew a pair of enormous insect wings as thin as cicada wings.

Alexia, an 8th-tier powerhouse of the Void Zerg.

Alexia raised her pupil-less, crimson compound eyes and gazed into the distance. At the edge of her vision, a large convoy of three thousand human vehicles stood on the wasteland, awaiting teleportation.

"It's almost time," Alexia said softly. "The entity behind the scenes only allows human players and their vehicles to enter the next phase. So let's follow their vehicles, follow the human players, and sneak into that 'Mythical Battlefield'!"

She turned to look at Ron and Lance, her gaze resolute: "This is our Zerg's only chance to break free from our shackles and reclaim our glory!"

"That's right." Lance nodded and said, "Your abilities are quite useful in certain situations."

Although he parasitized a human player, the system determined that he had lost his 'player' status and could not be teleported.

Alexia used [Void Whispers] to influence the minds of the human players. Now, it's an absolutely loyal human caravan.

"Let's go, while we have the last chance."

The words fell.

The three Tier 8 Zerg leaders, along with their elite Zerg warriors, transformed into afterimages and silently slipped into the human vehicles in the distance.

……

[00 minutes and 00 seconds remaining until the start of the second phase of the mission]

"Ding!"

When the last system notification sounded in the Misty Land.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

More than 90,000 dazzling blue beams of light rained down from the sky, precisely covering all the vehicles of the surviving players in the Mist Land of Sector M007.

Both Lin Hui's massive level 8 Starry Sky RV and Zhao Tianba's level 7 Apocalypse Tank began to appear illusory under this irresistible beam of light.

at the same time.

The system's cold, mechanical voice exploded in everyone's minds.

[Server-wide Announcement!]

[Attention survivors! Forced random teleportation has been activated!]

[Destination: Mythical Battlefield!]

[Map Description: The entire battlefield is an extremely large concentric ring structure. The outermost layer is divided into 108 fan-shaped areas. Each area has a completely different environment, terrain, and rules! In each fan-shaped area, there exists a Tier 7 or Tier 8 mythical creature in a "sealed" state.]

Within ten days, traverse the battlefield, and at the very center of the labyrinth will lie the final destination of this phase of the mission—the Land of the End.

[Rule 1: Each area has an "Absolute Rule." Once a player or vehicle breaks the rule, the mythical creatures will instantly awaken, and that area will become an absolute dead zone.]

[Rule 2: Upon entering the Mythical Battlefield, the fog will dissipate, and system communication will be disabled.]

……

A flash of white light.

The dizziness from the spatial shift subsided like the tide.

【Iron-Blooded Battlefield】.

This is a desolate land that seems to be forever shrouded in dark red smoke.

Broken metal tracks, rusted gun barrels, and bottomless shell craters were scattered across the land. The air was thick with the pungent smell of gunpowder and the nauseating stench of blood.

"Cough cough cough..."

Zhao Tianba, the leader of the Overlord Alliance, coughed violently and slowly opened his eyes.

He shook his head, looking through the thick observation window of the Level 7 Apocalypse Tank at this desolate land filled with iron and blood.

His face instantly turned even uglier than if he had swallowed a dead fly.

"What the hell is this place?!"

"Mythical Battlefield? 108 areas? Mythical creatures? These things didn't exist in my previous life!"

The more Zhao Tianba thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.

He glanced at the blood-red label on the system panel: "[Mission Difficulty: Hard]".

"The first stage is a regular elimination round, the second stage is difficult... so judging by this pattern, to reach that so-called 'End of the World,' the third stage will definitely be nightmare level!"

Zhao Tianba covered his face in anguish, almost bursting into tears.

"Family members, who understands?! I'm a reborn person, I should be living the protagonist's life, sweeping all before me! How come I'm living like a frightened bird now?!"

He frantically prayed to all the gods and Buddhas in his heart: "Dear ancestors, please... please don't let me be assigned to the same game server as that freak named Lin Hui again! I can't afford to mess with him, can't I just avoid him?!"

……

[White Pagoda Plain].

Completely different from the smoke-filled battlefield, when the teleportation light dissipated, what appeared before Zhuge Mo was a sacred, pure, and boundless strange space.

There was no mist here; the entire space was blindingly bright. Beneath my feet stretched an endless plain, while in the distant horizon, a colossal, tower-like sky city, constructed from stacked white boulders, floated.

On Ironblood Heavy Industries' level 7 heavy truck.

Zhuge Mo pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and quietly looked at the city of white towers in the distance.

In the passenger seat, Guo Tiantian clung to the car window with both hands, muttering to herself, "President... this place is so beautiful, it doesn't feel like a post-apocalyptic survival game at all. What are we going to do next?"

Zhuge Mo shook his head and calmly analyzed, "Don't act rashly yet. Figure out the unique rules here first, and then find a route to the 'Land of the End'."

Just as he finished speaking...

A strange wind suddenly swept through the city of white towers in the distance.

Immediately afterwards, countless light, fluttering white papers drifted down from the sky like snowflakes. These papers seemed to have eyes, precisely flying towards the vehicles of all the players who had entered this space.

"Clatter".

A piece of white paper floated lightly onto the hood of the heavily armored pickup truck.

Zhuge Mo frowned slightly and immediately activated the vehicle's [auto-pickup] function.

A flash of white light, and the paper appeared in his hand.

Guo Tiantian curiously leaned closer, and the two of them took a closer look.

Zhuge Mo, who was originally as calm as still water, couldn't help but twitch his lips violently.

The blank sheet of paper was densely covered with all sorts of complex questions and options.

"The first question... looks like calculus?!" Guo Tiantian gasped. "The survival mission rules here... are they going to give us a test?! And if we fail, we're eliminated?!"

……

【The Exile Maze】.

The "Iron Triangle" of the Scrap Metal Guild—Zhen Haoyun, Li Xian, Kang Chuanqi, and Captain Wu Shengnan—sat in their respective vehicles.

Directly in front of their car stood two identical gates.

There were no signs on the gate, and even the patterns were exactly the same.

Inside the car, the four people stared at each other, unsure of which way to go.

"Ahem..." Li Xian rubbed his hands together and looked at Zhen Haoyun. "Brother Zhen, this is clearly a life-or-death situation where you have to choose one of two options. If you choose wrong, there's probably an abyss or a monster horde behind the door."

"Just standing here won't solve anything. The countdown won't wait for anyone. Let's open a door first."

Zhen Haoyun stroked his chin. "Follow my intuition, you can't go wrong!"

After saying that, he swaggered out of the car and walked without hesitation to the large door on the left, pressing it down hard.

……

The Dark Wilderness region.

The sky was a deathly deep black, without starlight or moonlight.

There was only endless darkness and the occasional whistling of the wind in my ears.

Huo Lie, the red-haired warrior, was assigned to the same mythical battlefield as the members of Team 0010.

Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief as they watched the red-haired youth pushing his old bicycle with a calm expression. "Thank goodness, we were assigned to the same area as Boss Huo Lie."

……

Iron-Blooded Battlefield, White Tower Plains, Exile Labyrinth, Dark Night Wilderness, City of Order, Ruins of Chaos, Plateau of Fear...

At the same time.

The more than 90,000 vehicles that were completely destroyed were all deployed into these 108 bizarre and varied mythical battlefield areas.

Lin Hui's level 8 Starry Sky RV arrived at a place called the Silent Ice Plains.
