Chapter 145: Triggering the Game Materialization Function!
“Is that the extinct volcano?”
Standing on the cliff, Lorne saw the huge, bulging mountain range in the distance. It was covered in forests and had infinite vitality. If no one had told him, he would not have been able to look down from the sky. He could not imagine that it was a huge volcano.
Buzz—
The Dragon Soul Compa.s.s trembled.
Lorne pulled out the tool and looked in the direction of the needle. In the other direction was a dark, endless lake, like the sea.
The black lake was extremely calm, like a black mirror.
Looking down from here, one would feel immense fear. That place was like a black hole that swallowed everything. Even light could not pa.s.s through that region.
Lorne’s eyes searched the sh.o.r.e of the black lake. When his gaze swept over a mountain range, he suddenly stopped.
“That is?!”
Lorne saw a huge mountain range as high as a thousand meters, and in the mountain range, there was a city hundreds of meters high that completely merged with the mountain.
If not for the information regarding Cold Desolate Dragon City, he would not have discovered the city in the mountain.
When Lorne finally reached the mountain after several hours, he was completely shocked.
This was indeed an incomparably huge city!
Although it looked like it had been abandoned for tens of millions of years, it was actually still filled with vitality and an incomparably grand aura.
It was like a dragon that had slept for thousands of years had completely awakened at this moment.
Lorne was stunned.
He even wondered if there were still dragons in such a miraculous city.
Ding!
“Congratulations on discovering the dragon’s city—Cold Desolate Dragon City!”
“Congratulations on completing the mission of the Dragon, Walter. The global compet.i.tion mission [Find the Lost Cold Desolate Dragon City] has officially ended!”
The system notification suddenly sounded.
Lorne could not help but laugh. After searching for two days, he finally found Cold Desolate Dragon City.
What he did not expect was that the scale of the Cold Desolate Dragon City was actually so huge. Just from its appearance, it was incomparably shocking.
Such a huge Dragon City might have even more surprises inside. There might even be living dragons.
Lorne felt that anything was possible, especially since the Dragon’s Compa.s.s had been trembling. This meant that there were many things about dragons in the city, especially the corpses.
After feeling happy, Lorne quickly walked towards the entrance of Cold Desolate Dragon City.
But at that moment, all the images suddenly vanished, turning into darkness.
At the same time, an incomparably huge golden banner appeared in his mind as the system’s voice sounded in his ears.
Ding!
“Global Announcement: Due to the game progress reaching a new stage, the first maintenance and upgrade of “Divine Realm” will officially begin. The upgrade time is 24 hours. The specific details of the upgrade can be checked on the game’s internal official website!”
“Ding!”
“Ding!”
The global announcement repeated three times before Lorne was forced offline.
This situation occurred in the entire game. All the players in the world were in an uproar.
…
High-level Energy Zone, Cross Coffin Guild headquarters.
Due to the failure of the hunting plan, all the higher-ups of the guild were summoned to the conference room by the military and began the plan that lasted for several days.
Finding the lost Cold Desolate Dragon City was the most important mission for them, and also the priority for the two Dark Guilds.
But after losing the clue about the dragon, Walter, they could only find clues elsewhere and try to contact the only player who might have information, Tyrant.
Unfortunately, no matter how they posted information on the forum and in the media, they did not contact the other party.
At this moment, the leader of the Cross Coffin guild suddenly received an emergency message in the game. He quickly connected to the projection of the conference room.
In the next second, a system notification appeared.
Ding!
“Mission Hint: [Cold Desolate Dragon City] has been discovered by another player. Your compet.i.tion mission [Lost Cold Desolate Dragon City] has failed!”
“What the f*ck!!!”
In the conference room, when Lieutenant Colonel Arthur saw this information, he cursed.
“How is this possible! Impossible!!”
Lieutenant Colonel Arthur roared crazily. For this mission, their military region had used countless manpower and financial resources. Almost every day, tens of thousands of people explored the ruins of the war. This exploration lasted for a total of ten days. However, before he could find the target, this mission was actually s.n.a.t.c.hed away by someone!
How could he accept such an outcome!
….
In another high-level Energy Zone, in the underground base.
In the northeastern region of the World Alliance, the largest guild in the region, the Universe Guild, was in a great mood.
Just a moment ago, because of a special mission, they had received a world-cla.s.s compet.i.tion mission from a dying old man—[Find the Lost Cold Desolate Dragon City]!
After seeing the details of the mission, the leader of the Universe Guild, ‘Number One in the Universe’, immediately widened his eyes.
As the leader of a large guild, how could he not know the importance of this mission?
It had to be known that this was an epic main storyline mission, and it was the only global compet.i.tion mission in the world. Its value must be beyond imagination. As long as they could complete this mission, they believed that their guild would definitely reach the sky in a single step and trample all the other guilds in the world under their feet.
“Inform all the guild members to mainly tackle this mission. Whether our Universe Guild can surpa.s.s the top country of the East and the top country of the West will depend on this mission!”
‘Number One in the Universe’ excitedly issued an emergency order.
However, at that moment—
Ding!
“Mission Hint: [Cold Desolate Dragon City] has been discovered by another player. Your compet.i.tion mission [Lost Cold Desolate Dragon City] has failed!”
Pfft—
‘Number One in the Universe’ spat out blood, “d.a.m.n, I just received the mission!”
…
At this moment, Lorne was just going offline.
But as he was doing this, a special system notification sounded in his ear.
Ding!
“Congratulations! As you have furthered the progress of the game, you have received a ‘materialization’ opportunity. You can choose a skill or equipment to use in reality.”
