The world is changing

Ye Chen laughed, "Now that I have two Rank 30 pets, one Rank 27, plus Gun Gun at Rank 22, it would be strange if I couldn't take down a Rank 29 monster in two or three strikes."

The others laughed along, thinking that it was indeed true.

Ye Chen looked at the remaining experience capsules in his hand; there were 80,000 left. Combined with the experience points earned today, it was enough to upgrade Danshi. He didn't hesitate any longer.

[ Danshi ]

Danshi successfully promoted to LV28.

The six of them headed toward the Safe Zone.

Back inside the Safe Zone, it was much quieter now. Since there were no ordinary people left, the boisterous chatter of the past was gone.

Yu Nian sat on the sofa and said in a low voice, "Ye Chen, do you think those at the top know something, which is why they are developing thermal weapons so vigorously?"

Ye Chen also had doubts about this question in his heart.

This world definitely had many secrets he didn't know about.

Only the highest levels of the Law Enforcement Alliance, and even the highest levels of the country, had the right to know those secrets.

He didn't know, and even someone at Wang Zhan's level might not necessarily know.

Tang Qiu said, "That's not necessarily true. Developing thermal weapons so vigorously might just be to deal with these monsters. After all, in troubled times, holding onto one's Foundation is the most important task."

They nodded; everyone agreed with Tang Qiu's assessment.

Just then, the Monster Chat Room opened automatically.

A message appeared on it.

[ Monsters above Rank 31 will descend in three days. All descending monsters will have their intelligence awakened. Monsters below Rank 30 will remain in an unawakened state. The world will undergo a great change; countless treasures will descend, and various races of monsters will arrive in full force. Treasures are useful to both pets and monsters. Various Secret Realms and Small Worlds will all appear. Pet Masters, welcome the arrival of the new world. ]

Once this news came out, the Monster Chat Room instantly exploded!

"What? Monsters above Rank 31 are all descending? Damn, how are we supposed to survive this?!"

"Are there any big shots looking to team up? I'm so scared!"

"Brothers, I can't go on, I'm too scared. I'm taking my leave first!"

"..."

The six of them sat on the sofa, their expressions not looking too good.

Zhu Qiang said with a miserable face, "Brother Chen, this... isn't this completely screwed?"

Ye Chen shook his head, "Not necessarily. You need to notice this point: treasures and everything else are useful to both monsters and pets. That means the two races are no longer in total opposition. It might not be necessary to hunt each other; it will turn from mutual hunting into resource competition."

"Mm, Ye Chen is right. The world's situation might also change."

Tang Qiu sighed and said.

"Sigh, no one can say for sure. If we want to see, we can only wait until after three days."

They nodded, having no choice but to wait for the great world change in three days.

Ye Chen's phone suddenly rang. He picked it up to check and was surprised to see it was Xuan Nu calling.

He got up and went outside to answer.

"Ye Chen, you know, right?"

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Mm, I saw it. The world is about to undergo a great change."

"Mm, yes. Let me tell you something: not only will the world undergo a great change, but the entire geographical environment will also change drastically."

"What do you mean?"

Xuan Nu laughed, "It means this world is going to be different. Perhaps mountains won't be mountains anymore, and water won't be water. There might be dense forests and treacherous swamps."

Ye Chen was slightly stunned, "How do you know?"

"The intuition of the Tong Ling Race."

"Mm, okay, I understand. What are your plans?"

Xuan Nu thought for a moment and said, "I'll stay here for now. It shouldn't be a problem."

"Mm."

The two chatted for a while longer before hanging up.

The System Mall suddenly appeared, with a small question mark flashing on it.

Ye Chen curiously clicked on it.

[ The world is changing greatly, treasures are emerging. With the first descent, resources are at their most abundant. Host, please acquire the best resources as soon as possible. Although resources can regenerate, it requires the passage of time. ]

Seeing this, Ye Chen suddenly thought of one thing: even if Advanced monsters descend, they might not necessarily attack humans. They will surely choose to plunder resources first.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen felt much more at ease.

The next morning, the six of them had arrived in front of the Ruyi Lake Hell Secret Realm.

After what happened yesterday, there were more people at the Hell Secret Realm today.

There was also a team inside the Experience Secret Realm. Fortunately, there was only one small team outside the entrance, and Ye Chen's group of six stood behind waiting.

"Brother Chen, after the monsters descend, we won't die, right?"

"What are you talking about? It's not that easy. When the time comes, we just need to focus on improving our strength and increasing our ability to protect ourselves."

"Mm, okay."

Waiting until two in the afternoon, the six of them walked into the Experience Secret Realm.

Arriving inside the Experience Secret Realm, Yu Nian asked Little One, "Little One, can you manipulate it again this time to get extra experience?"

Little One chuckled, "How did you know I could adjust it?"

"Huh?" Yu Nian was stunned, "How can you adjust it again?"

Little One chuckled, "Because I'm above Rank 20 now, so naturally I can adjust it."

"How do you adjust it? To what extent?"

"Mm, let's add 5,000 experience points per floor. That's all I can do for now."

Hearing this, an idea suddenly sprouted in Ye Chen's mind.

Little One definitely had a great connection with the Experience Secret Realm.

The questions in Ye Chen's heart were growing more numerous: Little One's origin, the origin of the Hell Secret Realm, the sudden descent of the monsters.

All of this must have huge secrets behind it.

Ye Chen made up his mind that he must dig out all these secrets.

This might have a direct connection to him returning.
