NOVEL WEB Chapter 782: Level 6 Disaster Class on the Third Floor
"So this is the combat power of Level 6..."
"Exaggerated, too exaggerated!"
"..."
The crowd hadn't recovered from Wang Tao's one-punch instant kill of a Fourth-Order Disaster Level zombie, when they saw Wang Tao fly directly into the distant zombie horde, and then, it was a one-sided massacre.
No matter the level or number of zombies, they couldn't last a single round in front of Wang Tao.
The crowd couldn't even clearly see how Wang Tao was attacking, only a fleeting afterimage, and countless zombies instantly fell to the ground. Wang Tao swiftly shuttling among the zombie horde was simply a massacre targeting zombies!
No one knew how long it had been, just when the crowd was already numb, Wang Tao finally flew over.
"Hoo—what a thrill!"
Wang Tao grinned.
Although things like "Unrivaled at the Same Level" and "Cross-level Kill" were enjoyable, what he now experienced with this "level difference" was completely different. It allowed him to truly feel the absolute power crush!
"Basically, it's almost tested. Let's go back."
Wang Tao beckoned, and the Golden Eagle carried everyone back to Changhe Base.
On the way, others also asked a lot about the situation of Level 6, and Wang Tao answered everything. However, judging by the current situation, it would take some time for them to advance to Level 6. Being able to ascend to Level 4 was already quite good.
After returning to the base, Wang Tao went to City Hall to get a dossier, which recorded the currently more difficult enemies to deal with, such as disaster-level zombies and giant zombies.
Since Wang Tao's strength had increased so much, he would take some time to eliminate these enemies later.
As for why he wouldn't do it tomorrow, it was because the next day, he had to go to the cave at the Hongfeng Base. He wanted to test if he could enter the third layer of the rift space!
The next day.
After waking up, Wang Tao headed straight for the Hongfeng Base.
This time he didn't bring Lightning, Taxue, and the Golden Eagle. After all, they were just Level 4, and if there really was a Level 6 monster, they might be in danger. So Wang Tao let them go out with Han Rui and the others to hunt zombies and rescue survivors.
After ascending to Level 6, Wang Tao's flying ability and speed had greatly improved, and he only took a slight breath after flying all the way to the Hongfeng Base.
He found Han Youlin, asked about the situation of the mutant pangolins, and after confirming there were no issues, flew directly to the cave.
Compared to before leaving, the inside of the cave hadn't changed much, and no creatures appeared on the first and second layers of the rift space. The path to the third layer was still as long.
However, this time Wang Tao flew down, and soon saw the third-layer space.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Tao stepped forward.
Thud—
This time, he didn't return to the original place, but instead, his foot landed on the floor of the third-layer space.
"I'm in..."
Wang Tao felt somewhat heavy-hearted.
His previous suspicions were correct: as long as he advanced to Level 6, he could enter the third-layer space.
But he wasn't happy about this, because this kind of "rule" felt too deliberate!
It's like in video games, under the same technical conditions, why do some games feel realistic, like another world, while others feel stiff and lack immersion? One very important reason is the issue of freedom.
For example, in the same game, if there are two modes of play, one where you can reach any place visible to the naked eye, and the other where there are air walls everywhere and only one fixed path is walkable, obviously, the former provides more immersion and feels more real.
Air walls in games can pull you out of the experience, not to mention air walls in real life.
If Wang Tao still couldn't enter the third layer now, he could try to explain it away as a "bug in the world", although it would seem forced.
But the problem is he can enter now, his previous guess was correct, only by ascending to Level 6 can he enter the third layer. This "air wall" was specially designed to block creatures below Level 6... What does this imply? It implies that this world is designed! Before reaching Level 6, what you can and cannot do is predetermined!
Not just Level 6, perhaps everything from ordinary people to Ninth Level is designed, it just wasn't apparent to him before!
This is also why Wang Tao was suddenly terrified upon deep reflection last time—if his assumption is correct, it means this world is designed!
As for who designed this world... whether it's the so-called immortals, demons, God, gods, or something he can't even imagine, he doesn't know. But given the current situation, he can't explain it...
Luckily, Wang Tao isn't someone who gets bogged down in details. He's very resilient mentally, and even if he discovers that this world might have been designed by some kind of entity, he now feels powerless and focuses on the present.
"Whether this world is designed or not, my current strength is still not strong enough, only Level 6, which doesn't change anything. Maybe when I reach Ninth Level, I'll know... As for now, the priority is enhancement!"
Wang Tao took large strides into the third-layer space.
The third-layer space was the largest among the three layers, but there weren't many monsters inside. After searching for quite a while, he found a monster that was sleeping. However, the strength of this monster caught Wang Tao's attention.
