Chapter 342 - 342 Sunday Night, 23:51 PM
342 Sunday Night, 23:51 PM
It turned out that the bug room was endless.
Not only did he successfully complete the second 8 hours, but he also completed two consecutive 8 hours of earning money without any suspense.
However, 14 trillion in seven days was just a theoretical number.
It was just like how one could theoretically disassemble three 8 hours out of 24 hours a day.
In fact, there would be a long break in between every 8 hours.
The early stage was still okay, and it would end in a few minutes.
The later stages of the game, the tougher it would be.
The rest of the people could sleep and rest in the bubble, but Wang Wen couldn’t.
His body was the bridge between the Unity of Man and Nature and the Oath Scepter.
Once he fell asleep, the link would be cut off.
The scepter would then extract his own energy to fulfill the requirements of the oath.
If he did not have enough energy, he would end the oath by force, and the number of times he could use Unity of Man and Nature would be wasted.
When he was in a daze and almost cut off the energy supply of the oath, Wang Wen made a special oath.
Through oaths, one could maintain their health for a certain period of time, so that their body would always be in a state of full sleep and energy.
The amount of time and energy required to make this state permanent was not just 8 hours.
After wasting an opportunity to use the Unity of Man and Nature, Wang Wen chose to take effect on the ‘specified time’.
In other words, in the first few minutes of each use of the Unity of Man and Nature, he could swear that this state would last for 8 hours to ensure that he would be full of energy when he did business later.
Unfortunately, even if the oath came true again and again…
He could not help but show signs of fatigue.
This was a kind of mental fatigue.
He repeated the same action every day.
It was as if he was driving at a constant speed on a flat, straight highway with no end in sight.
There were no road conditions that needed to be operated or avoided.
As long as he kept driving at a constant speed, even the scenery around him would not be too different.
After a long time, even if they did not lack sleep, they would feel tired.
Wang Wen was able to persevere, not only because his team members took turns chatting with him, but also because of the tenacity and perseverance he had built up in his previous life.
Even so, starting from the fifth day, Wang Wen’s 8-hour break time became longer and longer.
He ate his food slowly, and their interest in chatting also grew.
Occasionally, he would take a nap.
Everyone could see the fatigue in his strong spirit.
In the last eight hours, Unity of Man and Nature could be used twice, and the total number of uses was raised to four.
Wang Wen stopped this cycle and did not continue to make money.
The points he had exchanged for with his oath were barely ten trillion.
It was two trillion less than expected.
He had reached his limit.
The money in the dron’es current stage prize pool was still rising, and now it was more than 1.2 trillion.
It was far more powerful than the Square Formation, and it was still increasing.
The number that was jumping every second had already exceeded 3 million.
At this speed, the changes in the insect was almost invisible to the naked eye.
It shrank and enlarged dozens of times a second, almost becoming a perpetual motion machine.
Not to mention entering the portal, it was difficult to even grab the insect’s mouth.
If he was not careful, he could tear the bug into pieces.
There was no hope of going to the next level.
Wang Wen led the entire team to the hall to rest.
It was mainly because he was resting by himself.
Cheng Qiaoyi diligently massaged his head and shoulders.
“I’m not tired,” Wang Wen said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “It’s just that earning money is so boring that I’m about to vomit.”
“Do you know how annoying your words are?” Mo Ran shouted at him through gritted teeth.
They did not leave the tower.
Wang Wen had consumed too much space in this checkpoint, causing the insects to constantly fill up the space. No one knew how high the top of the insect wall was pushed up, but all the insects that fell down were killed without exception. The area was large, and the number of insects that fell to their deaths at the same time was a little terrifying.
Every second, tens of thousands of bugs were converted into points.
No one would be willing to give up such free money.
Therefore, everyone was prepared to wait until Sunday before leaving.
Fortunately, there was Zhu Xingguo, who had an all-purpose storage space in the team.
He got into a fighting stance.
An increasingly clean and perfect automatic bathroom was built.
The grill for barbecuing, the copper pot for hotpot, the iron plate for pancakes, and the rice cooker were all arranged neatly.
There was a large amount of vegetables, fruits, meat, and seafood. They were divided into different categories like a buffet, and the quantity was so large that they could be placed in basins.
This was a ‘player’ who played with item duplication to the extreme.
The materials that they had encountered in different checkpoints could be replicated infinitely as long as they passed through Zhu Xingguo’s hands.
Especially now that he had accumulated more and more points, he could supply these ingredients that only cost a few dozen points without limit.
In any case, it would not be a waste if he could not finish it. He could wash it and sell it back to the World Tower to keep it fresh.
Everyone had to admit that under the effect of Zhu Xingguo’s Fair Exchange, in terms of food and drink, life inside the tower was better than life outside.
After all, there were some exotic ingredients that could not be bought outside the tower even with money.
For example, some kind of ‘nutrient soil’ that was artificially synthesized by some special technology and tasted like soil but contained all kinds of nutrients needed by the human body.
There was also the meat of a deer-shaped monster beast that had been tamed and raised by humans. It was obviously for consumption, but it had great strength and often killed butchers.
In addition, there were algae in the deep sea, lotuses in the snow mountain, mushrooms in the forest, and trees in the desert.
The total number was uncountable.
They could not eat it even if they wanted to after leaving the tower.
Unless he had tasted it in the tower in advance from Zhu Xingguo, who could use Fair Exchange, and after leaving the tower, he could make do with the delicious bread to satiate the taste.
Fair Exchange could only be used in the tower.
Zhu Xingguo could only bring one non-World Tower item every week.
At present, it was already a small sun that helped Wang Wen carry all the energy.
He could not bring any other ingredients.
On the other hand, the delicious bread could simulate the taste of the food he had tasted before.
However, that was the same taste. No matter how you tried to simulate it, it would still be the taste in your memory.
It was impossible to create a new taste out of nothing.
Even if it was just slightly salty or light, or if the temperature was slightly higher or lower, it would not do.
It was as it was in his memory, and there would be no change.
It was impossible to restore the distinctive taste made with real ingredients.
Cheng Qiaoyi had even been troubled that she seemed to have gained weight from eating.
This was not all.
Zhu Xingguo, who was full, buried himself in the skills for a long time.
He actually found all kinds of board games, cards, and other items.
The interested people gathered in groups of two or three to play cards to pass the time.
Other than Wang Wen who occasionally meditated and occasionally rejuvenated, and occasionally studied the ‘Tiangang Main Scroll (advanced)’ that Zhu Xingguo had ‘copied’.
The other four, including Cheng Qiaoyi, had also participated in the card game.
Time passed by quietly.
Soon, it was 23:51 PM on Sunday night.
The bug wall in the distance was still dropping bugs.
His reward points were also rising.
However, the speed gradually dropped to around two million per second.
It could be seen that without Wang Wen’s devouring, the bugs were filling up quickly.
The drone showed that the total points in the prize pool had reached more than 1.5 trillion.
Everyone knew when to stop.
He stopped being greedy and packed up his things, ready to leave the tower.
One by one, they left in white light.
Wang Wen looked around.
Nodding thoughtfully, he reported to the drone that he was leaving the tower and left with the others.
The last bit of white light disappeared.
The insects in the insect room no longer dropped.
At midnight, all the emptiness disappeared and the hall returned to its original four white walls.
