"Brothers, we're doomed! I feel like we won't be able to play the game for the next few days."
"Listen up, I'm not saying I personally can't play, but maybe nobody can."
"Not sure if any brothers logged in today, but I went to bed early yesterday and woke up early. As soon as I got into the game, I found my Shelter was flooded."
"Although the flood has lasted for days, my Shelter is on high ground. Yet today it's still flooded."
"The water level is clearly rising; many places I could see before are now submerged."
"The most critical thing is, monsters are increasing."
"According to the rainfall in the game, as long as it keeps raining, the water will continue to rise."
"That's why I say we probably can't play for the next few days."
"With this environment, it's impossible to even leave the door to explore."
"I'm attaching some screenshots from the game for you all to see."
Below the post, there were three images.
Raging floodwaters swallowed everything.
With the waves crashing, many mountain peaks barely emerged from the water.
Bai Ye's eyes widened in shock.
The flood was terrifying.
Even mountains were submerged.
Like the legendary apocalyptic flood!
"If this is really the case, then we truly can't play the game for a while."
Bai Ye murmured.
Without hesitation, he quickly opened the game, controlled his character to the Watchtower, and looked toward the Pyramid Ruins.
"Just as I thought."
Though expected, seeing the ruins' original location completely empty made Bai Ye disappointed.
The ruins were submerged.
Many monsters flashed through the flood like schools of fish in the deep sea.
Dense and unsettling.
"You can't go out anymore. For the next few days, I'll probably just stay inside the Shelter."
Bai Ye sighed helplessly.
He closed the game and continued browsing the forum.
As more players woke up and saw the situation, complaints appeared on the forum.
They were excited to play, only to be told they couldn't.
Old Players understood that feeling well.
Luckily, Bai Ye didn't worry about this.
Even if the game couldn't be played, synthesis still worked.
After washing up and having breakfast, Bai Ye started synthesizing.
First, he synthesized three Soul-Fusing Gold, raising his synthesis chances to two today.
Soul-Fusing Gold 2 + 3.
If he used all tomorrow's chances to synthesize Soul-Fusing Gold, Bai Ye's Shelter would evolve tomorrow without fail.
Thinking this, Bai Ye smiled with anticipation.
For the remaining two synthesis chances, he took out two Deep Sea Scales to see what he could get.
[Deep Sea Scale] + [Deep Sea Scale]
Clicked synthesize.
[Synthesis successful, you obtained the Sea Monster's Reverse Scale.]
[Sea Monster's Reverse Scale.]
[Description: Dragons have reverse scales that cause death if touched. Some powerful deep sea monsters also have reverse scales, though not as potent as dragons'. They have good defense.]
"Trash."
Reading the description, Bai Ye immediately frowned and tossed it into his backpack without hesitation.
Clearly, synthesis wasn't guaranteed to produce good results.
Of course, the outcome depended on the materials used.
But still, the Deep Sea Scale stacking synthesis result was worse than expected—a wasted synthesis chance.
However, such waste was necessary; every new synthesis was an exploration into the unknown.
Bai Ye expected this and remained calm, then took out two drops of Corrupt Blood.
He wanted to use his last synthesis chance on this.
After all, he had few valuable materials now, and with Soul-Fusing Gold as an example, Corrupt Blood gave him some hope.
[Corrupt Blood] + [Corrupt Blood]
Clicked synthesize.
Bai Ye's eyes lit up with anticipation.
[Synthesis successful, you obtained Thin Dark Blood.]
[Thin Dark Blood.]
[Description: Originally chaotic blood of Deep Divers, impurities removed to extract pure dark energy, forming precious Dark Blood. Although thin, consuming it grants resistance to dark elements.]
"Eh, Corrupt Blood can actually synthesize this?"
Bai Ye was surprised, his face showing astonishment.
Judging from the description, the effect was quite good.
It granted dark element resistance.
Not a combat power boost, but it only required two drops of Corrupt Blood.
Most importantly, this was only Thin Dark Blood. What about true Dark Blood?
Thinking this, Bai Ye was excited and immediately had an idea.
Synthesizing Thin Dark Blood + Thin Dark Blood would definitely yield more precious treasures.
The best part was, it wouldn't cost many synthesis chances.
"Too bad I'm out of synthesis chances today."
"But no matter, I can synthesize it tomorrow."
Bai Ye murmured, stretched his sore neck, moved his body, and got out of bed to the window.
With a swish, the curtain was pulled open.
A gloomy sky with continuous drizzle.
The pattering rain sound made one feel subconsciously gloomy.
"It's raining in the game, and raining in reality too. I wonder if there's any connection…"
Perhaps this was Earth's Will hinting at humanity?
But since the game was out, wouldn't an announcement be better?
Bai Ye didn't understand such high-level thoughts and shook his head, deciding not to think further.
Better to waste no time and get some more sleep.
"This is good weather for sleeping."
Bai Ye murmured with a smile, closed the curtains, and returned to his warm bed.
...
Elsewhere.
Abroad.
Dawn Faction Base.
Boom! Boom!
Gunfire and explosions rumbled outside continuously.
Several blonde blue-eyed foreigners huddled in a safe house, feeling it shake, their faces full of anger.
"Fark, is X Nation's team crazy?"
