Chapter 173: This Crack is Going to Burst_3
Unless they could enter the crack and suppress its mutation at the fastest speed.
The first time entering a C-rank crack, they encountered such an explosive mutation rate!
As they entered the crack, the sky gradually turned into a dusty sunny day, and an extremely desolate island appeared in front of them.
"My first C-rank crack experience, and it is this intense."
Chen Qi instinctively grasped the Residual Fire Touch under his clothes.
This was his first time entering a C-rank crack as an assassin!
As they got closer to the island, a prompt appeared before his eyes again.
Stay connected with empire
[You have arrived at Sea Lamp Island's crack.]
[Assigning a random role based on your Nature Form.]
[Your role is a courageous and righteous investigator and company employee of Bonfire Energy Company.]
[Due to your role as a company employee, the villagers wish to feed you to the sharks. Hate level +100! You are more likely to be besieged by monsters!]
[Your reward for passing the challenge +20%]
[You have obtained a special mission: Find the design blueprint of the Sea Lamp (Completing this task can earn you a very mysterious reward)]
[Note: The more successfully you play your role, the higher the score you will receive.]
Villagers' hate level +100?
Chen Qi frowned slightly.
As a Second-order Transcendent, challenging difficult scenarios was already hard enough. Now, they assigned him a role with a maxed-out hate level.
However, it didn't matter.
In the Witch Sea, where random events flew everywhere, he would inevitably encounter this level of a crack sooner or later.
Chen Qi turned his head and looked at Doctor Crow in the small black cloak and the other Transcendents with triangular helmets.
From the current point of view, this crack had roles, and certain roles would obtain special inspiration.
Even though this was not a werewolf-themed copy, some key roles should receive inspiration far beyond others.'
And yet, even with his inspiration, he hadn't received special inspiration.
The difficulty of passing the C-rank crack was even more troublesome than he had imagined.
Chen Qi looked out the window.
In the distance was a colossal barren island, completely devoid of any breath, full of withered trees.
In the middle of the island stood a gigantic mountain, covered with countless runes.
The entire mountain resembled the fossil of a sprawling creature, as if at any moment, a sky-devouring beast would descend, destroying everything in sight!
Chen Qi took the lead in speaking:
"Everyone, what do you say, how do you plan to pass the challenge? My character has some special missions."
No doubt about it, these people would absolutely not take the normal route to pass the challenge.
At this moment, Doctor Crow said:
"Our goal is one. That is to head to the center of the village, replace the ritual destination, and become the new ritual person.
My role is a doctor, so I won't be attacked by the villagers. I can move freely on this island with medical skills, but I will most likely be monitored. Therefore, my idea is to first analyze everyone's information..."
The person in the white cloak raised their left hand and snapped their fingers, a faint black shadow appeared over their body:
"No! We don't have time! Doctor Crow! A mutation rate of 87% means the villagers are about to hold the ritual. We have only one choice, and that is to reveal our fangs and bathe the area in blood. We need to use blood to accomplish our ritual."
"Bathe the area in blood?"
Doctor Crow twitched the corner of her mouth.
Are you kidding?
This is a C-rank crack! And it is about to explode!
If they bathed the area in blood, both she and Chen Qi might end up as cannon fodder!
"No, we need to be more cautious. At 87% mutation, in fact, the higher the mutation rate, the harder it is for the mutation to increase!"
Crack mutation rate... Chen Qi lowered his head in thought.
Doctor Crow was right. Once the mutation rate was too high, a major event must occur to raise the crack's mutation rate further.
"The mutation rate doesn't rise that easily, which means we still have time to make a plan!"
Doctor Crow negated again with a serious look. She needed to buy time for the Navy, Chen Qi, and her own actions.
At this moment, suddenly, the gigantic mountain in the distance squirmed a bit.
In everyone's hallucinations, the massive mountain in the distance seemed to twitch violently, shifting momentarily!
Layer upon layer of sea waves surged towards them!
The silent ancient whispers echoed across the sea!
Everyone covered their ears amidst the soul-piercing whispers.
They all saw a special prompt.
[Because 'it' sensed a particular existence, the crack's mutation rate increased by 3%. The current mutation rate is now 90%!]
Doctor Crow raised her head sluggishly, twitching her mouth.
"?????"
