Hearing that, John immediately smiled and said, "In that case, I'll be straightforward. You can rest assured about the authenticity of this C-grade treasure chest. This is something that the armored Transcendent told me personally!"

John looked at Stark and continued, "Moreover, the system of distributing C-grade treasure chests is also equal. If it's not enough, you can use crystals or other items to exchange for equal value!"

"What kind of monsters are there? Their levels?" Stark narrowed his eyes and asked.

Obviously, the issue of distribution was not the focus of Stark's attention.

The reason why this group of people would call outsiders to get the C-grade treasure chest at the last minute was obvious.

It was extremely dangerous.

If it was not within Stark's acceptable range, he would not do such a stupid thing.

"Right now, all we know about are some level 20 zombies and demonized animals!

"As for near the treasure chest, there should be at least one level 20 elite demonized animal!"

John thought for a while before explaining.

"Demonized animal?" Stark was a little confused. He had never heard of this term before.

Johann immediately explained, "Oh, it's like this. After the apocalypse, zombies aren't the only monsters that appeared. When zombies killed humans, some of the animals and livestock had been demonized. That's why we call them demonized animals."

"Got it."

After replying, Stark began analyzing.

The elite zombie he had killed before also had a level. It was a level 10 Transcendent creature, and he could barely finish it.

In other words, his current strength should be similar to that of a level 10 elite zombie! It would be a little difficult for him to fight a level 20 elite zombie!

"When?" Stark asked again.

"There's no hurry. Let's wait for everyone to kill some zombies and clean up all the high-level zombies on the street. After all, each one of them represents a large amount of experience and crystals. Let's advance to level 15 first. That way, our chances of getting the chest will be higher."

John snapped his fingers.

"Okay." That was exactly what Stark was thinking.

The world had just mutated a bunch of high-level zombies. It would be wise to take this opportunity to increase their strength as soon as possible.

After the chat, both sides left their contact details through the crystal wristbands and then went their separate ways.

Once the agreement was made, Stark began to level up.

A C-grade treasure chest was something that he had to get!

As for John, he wouldn't give in easily either.

Perhaps, they would have their own schemes and plots.

Therefore, if he wanted to gain the upper hand in this battle, strength would be the most important.

After Stark left John, it was afternoon.

Stark returned to the street full of zombies.

The elite zombies were in limited numbers. One killed meant one less for others. Stark didn't want to waste any time on regular zombies.

Level up first!

"Roar!"

On the street, the roars continued.

Stark rushed in the direction of the loudest sound.

The louder the roar, the higher the level. As long as he could find high-level zombies, Stark estimated that he would be able to reach level 15 in one night!

"Lightning Ball Explosion!"

With a loud sound, a high-level zombie with the words 'Level 9' written on its head was targeted by the lightning in Stark's palm. A lightning ball exploded and flew out!

The lightning ball blew up.

After being hit by the lightning ball, the limbs of the zombie were burnt to a crisp. Lightning flowed all over its body. Clearly, it could not be any more dead.

This was a new skill he had learned. It felt pretty good when used, and it looked gorgeous.

After the last monster in the vicinity was killed, Stark once again gained around 10,000 experience points. He leveled up three times in a row, reaching level 14!

Looking at the level ranking board again, he was already in second place. The first place was a Transcendent named Explosive Dragon Soul, level 15.

Moreover, he had been evolved.

After an extraordinary reached level 15, they would get a quest from the Lord God. Upon completing the quest, they could also evolve like pets.

After the evolution, a Transcendent's original ability would undergo a qualitative change, reaching a new realm. This type of Transcendent was known as a Tier-2 Transcendent.

After receiving this news from the forums, Stark couldn't help but get excited. He wanted to reach level 15 as soon as possible, then complete the mission from the Lord God. He would then undergo his evolution.

"Buzz!"

Just as Stark was thinking, the Lord God's voice suddenly rang out once more.

The dark clouds were swept away, emitting a supreme light.

"Latest announcement. With the beginning of the apocalyptic era and the appearance of high-level zombies, many Transcendent individuals have already reached level 10 after much hard work.

"Therefore, the reward period will begin at 8 o'clock tomorrow. On the streets of each city, there will be a ball of light connecting to the Otherworld. After the extraordinary individuals come into contact with the black ball of light, level 10-15 players can choose to spend 2,000 crystals to enter the Otherworld and farm for experience."

When Stark heard this, a hint of information immediately appeared in his eyes.

A bonus time in the Doomsday Era? Transcendents could find the black ball of light on the street and pay crystals to head to the Otherworld to grind monsters.

Wasn't that just like those online games before the apocalypse?

Stark instantly became familiar with it.

One had to know that he was already three days behind the others. Moreover, he was someone who preferred first place and victory.

He had spent only one morning to advance from level 1 to level 15, a single level away from the number one Transcendent on the ranking list.

However, with Stark's character, he couldn't tolerate that someone was stronger than him.

He, and only he, could sit on the strongest seat.

Stark wanted to seize all the time to level up and leave the number one Transcendent far behind. However, he didn't know how long it would take for him to reach this level by searching for high-level zombies to level up.

The sudden appearance of the reward time undoubtedly gave him a huge opportunity!

In Stark's mind, a piece of information about the Otherworld appeared.

Otherworld: Demon Tower

World Introduction: By entering the Demon Tower, you can kill countless monsters and gain experience. In the Demon Tower, the higher the level, the more experience and rewards you will earn.

Moreover, the monsters inside are not restricted to zombies!

Opening Hours: 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. (12 hours)

Transcendent items: there is a chance to get the Transcendent in the Demon Tower, including E-grade treasure chests and D-grade treasure chest.

After clearing 30 floors, there is a chance to obtain a C-grade Transcendent weapon. C-grade Transcendent items have all sorts of unique effects.

"There are also C-grade Transcendent items and weapons?"

Stark thought that it would be good enough if he could level up faster. He did not expect that there would be C-grade drops. This caused his heart to be filled with anticipation.

He did not know about other things, but he knew that C-rank Transcendent items must be precious.

More importantly, C-rank Transcendent items!

Although he was currently equipped with SSS-grade equipment, he did not have all sorts of transcendent items.

During the apocalypse, every transcendent item had its own unique effects. It wasn't the same as equipment. If one had stronger items, they would have to replace their old equipment.

For items like transcendent items, regardless of their level, the more, the better!

Although Lord God had informed him of other Transcendent monsters' existence, this didn't scare Stark.

When Lord God said that the Demon Tower could drop C-grade extraordinary items, Stark was instantly excited.

It seemed that he had to go to the Demon Tower!
