At the entrance of the convention center, many survivors were pressed against the glass doors, nervously watching the two who dared to venture out to level up.
"Those two lunatics, we've tried fighting before. Although monsters can't enter the safe zone, we melee classes have to cross the safe zone to attack. As soon as we extend a hand, countless night wolves will pounce!"
A man with bite marks on his hand stared in fear at the red eyes in the darkness. If he hadn't pulled his hand back quickly enough, he would have been dragged past the safe zone and eaten.
A chubby kid beside him nodded in agreement.
"Yes, these night wolves are too sinister. Even ranged classes don't have many options. Archers are useless without weapons. And for a mage like me, with exceptional talent and six points in spirit."
"My fireballs deal a maximum of 60 damage, but they only do 45 damage to these monsters. I have 60 mana, and at most I can cast six times. I've only managed to take down half the health of one night wolf!"
The man who spoke looked at the chubby kid with surprise, "Then you're still much better off than me. Speaking of which, can't you mages team up and gang up on a monster?"
The chubby kid shook his head helplessly, "No! These monsters, while seemingly frenzied, also possess intelligence. It's fine one-on-one, but once we attack in groups, they will also act together."
"And once these night wolves are in groups, their defense seems to increase. My fireballs deal single-digit damage when they hit."
"The result is unsolvable. Individually, I can't kill one even if I run out of mana. By the time my mana recovers, the one I was attacking has long since disappeared."
"And when we gang up, a bunch of single-digit damage is just tickling these monsters."
In the end, the chubby kid sighed and summarized:
"In short, these monsters are not something we newbies should be facing. A level 0 mage, with no mana and no skills, how can we fight these level 5 monsters! Not to mention the even more terrifying monsters during the day!"
"This doomsday game didn't prepare any way for us to survive!"
Actually, the chubby kid didn't quite say that if there was a core leader to guide all the chaotic people, and if a certain amount of sacrifice was allowed, it might be possible to kill monsters.
And once monsters were killed, those who leveled up could help others level up, and in this way, everyone could become stronger.
But this was only an ideal state.
Ultimately, although the world had been gamified, this was still the real world.
Everyone was an ordinary person who had always lived in peacetime. Faced with the sudden appearance of monsters, no one would easily take risks for others.
In fact, many people would rather stay in the venue waiting for possible rescue than go out and fight.
After all, tonight was only the first day of the doomsday game, and most people had not yet understood the cruelty of this game.
The man with the injured hand sighed helplessly after listening to the chubby kid's words, and looked at the man in the distance with the same gaze one would give a fool.
They would definitely fail!
...
But the next scene made everyone's jaws drop.
The handsome man dressed as Rex Lapis, wearing sunglasses, waved his hand casually, and a giant fireball shot straight towards the night wolf.
Everyone had gained extraordinary powers and had seen others cast skills, so they weren't very surprised by the appearance of the fireball.
At most, it was that the man cast it a bit faster and the projectile was a bit bigger.
What truly surprised everyone was that the man could cast again in just a few seconds after the attack!
Within a minute, the man's attacks were continuously bombarding the same night wolf.
The darkness couldn't even cover the firelight before it was illuminated again by a new fireball.
Under the fireball, the night wolf's embarrassed figure and the stunned gazes of the crowd behind it were a stark contrast.
It wasn't until the man finished casting six consecutive fireballs that the attacked night wolf was completely reduced to ashes, and the crowd finally came back to their senses.
The man with the injured hand quickly held the chubby kid beside him and exclaimed excitedly:
"Chubby! What kind of mage did you say you were! This is a mage! This is a true mage!"
The chubby kid looked at the scene unfolding before him with disbelief:
"No way, how can his skills be so fast?! And he can kill a night wolf with six shots, this damage is outrageously high!"
"Are we really playing the same game?"

Ignoring the commotion from the crowd behind him, Chen Luo felt the knowledge related to "Meditation Technique" appearing in his mind and roughly understood the effect of this technique.
To activate this skill, one first needs to sketch a complex pattern in their mind according to the requirements of the Meditation Technique.
After sketching, one enters a meditative state. At the F-rank stage, 10 seconds of meditation time can restore 1 point of mana.
Chen Luo's current 10 points of spirit can maintain about 50 seconds of meditation time. Including the sketching time, he can recover about 6 points of mana per minute.
However, there is a 30-minute cooldown for Meditation Technique, making this skill very chicken-like!
But Chen Luo was overjoyed when he looked at the skill description.
Because this skill does not consume any mana to activate.
It only requires you to successfully sketch the pattern in your mind to complete a skill, and the subsequent duration can be stopped at any time.
Coupled with his "Unlimited Firepower" talent, he might be able to try grinding skills!
---
Chen Luo sat down cross-legged in front of the confused Hu Tao and closed his eyes.
At the same time, Chen Luo added all five free attribute points he had just obtained to his spirit.
Chen Luo felt his mind instantly clear, and his thinking speed became unprecedentedly fast.
Reality is not just a game; the increase in attribute points brings real and tangible power.
The incredibly complex pattern in Meditation Technique was sketched in Chen Luo's mind in just three seconds!
[Meditation Technique activated successfully! Entering meditative state, mana will begin to recover slowly!]
However, the moment Meditation Technique was successfully activated, Chen Luo directly canceled the skill.
Then, he began to sketch the meditation pattern in his mind again.
[Meditation Technique activated successfully! Entering...]
Canceled again! Activated the meditation skill again!
In this way, in just a few minutes, Chen Luo activated the meditation skill a hundred times consecutively!
When the hundredth skill activation was successful!
A brand new prompt suddenly sounded in Chen Luo's mind!
[Proficiency reached, congratulations on your skill "Meditation Technique" being promoted from F-rank to E-rank]
[Meditation Technique (E-rank) (0/1000)]
Active Effect: Enter a meditative state, increasing mana recovery speed. Cooldown time is twenty-five minutes, maximum duration is spirit x 10 seconds.
Passive Effect: Spirit attribute +5
A more complex meditation pattern flashed through Chen Luo's mind. Now, the mana recovered every 10 seconds increased to 2 points.
Moreover, the upgraded Meditation Technique passively increased his spirit attribute by 5 points, which was equivalent to leveling up directly.
Chen Luo's spirit power surged to 20 points at this moment, his spirit became more active, and his thinking speed became even faster.
Even for the E-rank Meditation Technique, the pattern required to sketch became more complex, but for Chen Luo now, it still only took three seconds to sketch.
Chen Luo's lips curved slightly. This was the correct way to utilize his Unlimited Firepower talent!
Come on! Let me see the ultimate limit of this skill's improvement!
But this was not the end!
As Chen Luo was about to continue using the skill, a golden prompt appeared in his mind!
