Lord: My troops can evolve indefinitely.

No one knows what the future holds, but a strange sense of crisis makes them want to do something.

Jiang Xu recalled the news he had heard in several video conferences and felt a strange sense of crisis from above.

Although he didn't know the reason, it didn't stop him from feeling a sense of crisis.

"What about those eliminated players?" Jiang Xu asked, pulling himself out of his thoughts.

"They were allowed to leave in batches after completing their registration and points calculation in the order of elimination."

Zhao Wenjie answered.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xu nodded, his gaze lingering on the screen.

"What happened to Li Feng and Luo Xuan that you mentioned before? Are they still around?"

"Yes, yes," Zhao Wenjie quickly replied, pointing out the screens corresponding to Luo Xuan and Li Feng to Jiang Xu.

At this moment, Zhao Wenjie was extremely grateful to Luo Xuan and Li Feng for not letting him down.

Otherwise, you'll likely leave a bad impression of someone who misjudges people.

Jiang Xu glanced at Luo Xuan and Li Feng a few more times, then nodded slightly. "Alright, you two continue. Let me know as soon as the results are out after the assessment."

"clear!"

Only after Jiang Xu's figure disappeared through the doorway did Zhao Wenjie look back at the two figures on the screen, thinking to himself:

"The opportunity is in front of you; whether you can seize it is up to you."

Meanwhile, Luo Xuan, inside the trial space, had cleared out most of the low-level monsters on the outskirts of the sea of ​​fire area as time went by.

Even if some fish slip through the net, searching for them is time-consuming and laborious, and you won't get many points, so it's a very inefficient option.

During this period, Luo Xuan even entered the ice field area multiple times.

As he predicted, the ice field also has an environmental suppression effect. Unlike the high temperature and burning of the fire field, the ice field is characterized by the opposite low temperature and frostbite.

Luo Xuan didn't dare to go too deep. He simply cleared out a few waves of monsters on the outskirts and then returned to the sea of ​​fire.

As time passed, Luo Xuan's points increased at a slower and slower pace, and a sense of anxiety gradually crept into his heart.

Because he didn't know other people's scores and had no reference or comparison, Luo Xuan felt a lot of pressure.

If he knew that only a small number of people were still persisting, Luo Xuan would definitely not be anxious, but would continue to proceed steadily and surely.

Unfortunately, Luo Xuan was unaware of this, so after stabilizing for so long, Luo Xuan, considering the state of the water element and the demon spider, prepared to take a risk and go all in.

There are basically no monsters left in the outer areas now, so you have to go deeper if you want to continue gaining points.

Since the goal is to go deep into the area, the value of sealing the rift is undoubtedly much higher than that of grinding monsters.

Since we're taking a risk anyway, we should definitely choose a high-value target.

Moreover, Luo Xuan hadn't forgotten that even if he didn't want to take the risk, after ten hours, third-tier gold soldiers would still spawn in the rift to clear the area.

At that point, he won't even have the chance to take a gamble.

Having made his decision, Luo Xuan continued his journey with the Demon Spider.

After a long battle, the Demon Spider was in extremely poor condition. In particular, in order to preserve the water element's condition as much as possible, Luo Xuan used the Demon Spider extensively in the battle.

Currently, the spider's health is down to a little over 30%, which would be considered low if a health bar were displayed.

As for the water element, thanks to Luo Xuan's care, its condition is slightly better, but only to a limited extent; it still has about 50% of its health remaining.

Heading towards the distant volcano, Luo Xuan never forgot to be mindful of his surroundings.

There was a time when he wasn't paying attention and was ambushed by some kind of monster lurking underground.

Fortunately, the demonic spider was nearby and blocked the attack for Luo Xuan; otherwise, Luo Xuan would have been eliminated by now.

Because Luo Xuan had cleared out most of the monsters on the outskirts, he made relatively smooth progress for the first part of the journey.

However, as he ventured deeper, Luo Xuan gradually began to encounter powerful wild monsters.

They are either individually powerful or numerous, making them quite difficult to deal with.

Unfortunately, although Luo Xuan wanted to make one last desperate attempt, the chances seemed slim at the moment.

After defeating another Lava Digger, Luo Xuan stopped to rest for a while.

This battle worsened the spider's condition.

Most importantly, one of the Lava Diggers' digging impacts caused the Spider's leg to suffer a huge injury.

Although the spider can still spit webs and venom, it has lost its ability to move.

Luo Xuan retrieved it, and would summon it again later to use it as a fixed turret, depending on the situation.

At this point, he had already penetrated to almost the same depth as when he first entered, and the high temperature of the surrounding environment was causing Luo Xuan great distress.

"Hang in there, and try to get as many points as possible."

Luo Xuan tried to encourage himself and then continued on his way alone.

At this point, Luo Xuan no longer cared about how many points he had earned. He was now only driven by a single willpower: either continue forward or be defeated and eliminated.

After crossing a high slope and bypassing several crevices, Luo Xuan could see that he was getting closer and closer to the volcano.

Just then, a huge roar suddenly came from the sky.

Luo Xuan looked up and saw a huge fire dragon flapping its wings as it descended from the sky.

The fire dragon descended before Luo Xuan with an incomparably terrifying aura, letting out another roar at him.

The Tier 3 purple-quality [Lava Guardian] is an insurmountable obstacle for Luo Xuan's already exhausted squad.

"Is this the end?" Luo Xuan murmured somewhat unwillingly, then summoned the water elemental and the demonic spider:

Even so, I will give it my all!

Luo Xuan roared as well, trying his best to command the water elementals and the demon spiders to attack the dragon.

Ten minutes later, only the fire dragon remained standing, but its body surface showed signs of charring and venom corrosion.

. . . . . .

"Whew~ Is it over?"

Luo Xuan opened his eyes in a daze; at the last moment, he almost forgot that he was taking an assessment.

Luo Xuan pushed open the automatically opening glass cabin, then got up and walked out.

He looked around and saw that the glass capsules that had once been packed with players who had participated in the assessment with him were now almost empty.

Luo Xuan counted, and there were only seven glass cabins left with people continuing.

"So that means I'm in eighth place?" Seeing that there were still seven players ahead of him continuing the assessment, Luo Xuan felt a little uneasy.

Although I could find reasons to comfort myself that I had only been doing this for less than a month, a faint sense of resentment welled up deep inside me.

He didn't know how others were doing, but Luo Xuan knew himself; he had awakened a top-tier talent like [Endless Transformation].

"Bang!"
