Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 26: Chapter 25: The Beginning of the Slaughter

There aren’t few who share the same thoughts as Murong Tian.

Many people thought their ranking would be high, even believed they could make the top ten. Even if not the top ten, top one hundred should be more than enough.

But the reality slapped them hard.

Not only didn’t they make the top one hundred, they couldn’t even get into the top thousand, making them begin to doubt whether the ranking list was fake.

This doubt grew even larger when they saw the top ten names on the list.

First: Yin Tiange [Tier Five: Demon Type]

Second: Yan Wu [Tier Four: Elemental Type]

Third: Bai Haitang [Tier Four: Angel Type]

Fourth: Wenren Kuang [Tier Four: Beast Type]

…

Ninth: Lin You [Tier Four: Plant Type]

…

Plant Type!

There’s actually a Plant Type in the top ten!

With the Plant Type’s early-stage strength, how could it possibly surpass so many people and break into the top ten? No one would believe it if you said it.

Even in the regional channel, there’s wide discussion about it.

“Are you sure? The ninth is actually a Plant Type?”

“Plant Type can rise to Tier Four in such a short time?”

“What’s surprising? Don’t you remember, that the one who beat Murong Tian previously was indeed a Plant Species?”

“Seems like it. Even Murong Tian couldn’t handle it, surely it’s Tier Four.”

“So the top player on the list and the ninth is actually the same person?”

“It’s possible, but it doesn’t exclude the presence of other stronger Plant Lords.”

…

Everyone is speculating about the identity of the ninth on the ranking list.

Meanwhile, as the source of all this discussion.

Lin You is leisurely enjoying roasted meat in his territory, while keeping an eye on the rankings and regional channel movements.

From the moment the rankings appeared, he already guessed his ranking might not be high.

After all, with the collapse of the Ten Thousand Realms, everyone in the world transmigrated with him, it’s not surprising to have a few outstanding individuals given such a large population base.

Plus, everyone has their opportunities; he isn’t the only one blessed with luck.

Out of ten million people, to rank ninth, he’s already very satisfied, even a bit surprised.

Originally, his conservative estimate was just the top one hundred, yet he didn’t expect to make the top ten directly.

And those ranked above him are all universally recognized as powerful species.

Needless to say, who Lin You is most concerned about is the person ranked first.

As the only Tier Five on the list, standing above millions, matched in fame with the Angel Type Demon Type species, his strength is evident.

If he were to face him now, he might not be a match.

Of course.

Lin You doesn’t believe his plants would be weaker than opponents.

He beat the Angel Type, why fear a trivial demon?

The urgent task is to quickly find a way to upgrade to Tier Five territory, so that his ranking could be further front, with more rewards to gain.

He just checked.

Besides the top three getting extra Territory Essence corresponding to their rank.

The top ten, top hundred, top thousand, and even top ten thousand all receive corresponding Magic Energy rewards.

As long as he stays on the list, the resources he gets will keep increasing, invisibly widening the gap with others.

“Seems I must go out tomorrow…”

Thinking so, Lin You closed the ranking interface, quickly finished the roasted meat.

Then he got up, climbed the stairs to the wooden house on the Tree of Life.

The Lord’s Castle upgraded to Tier Four has become much grander and more spacious.

It was built from the ground up to the tree trunk, complementing the Tree of Life, very comfortable, even taking advantage of the height to see far from the territory.

It’s a good spot for enjoying the view and scouting enemy situations.

Inside the wooden house at this time, there are four rooms around the four directions of the Tree of Life, all decorated by Lin You with Beast Hides newly made by the Production Workshop, even a thick layer of fur was added on the bed for warmth.

Lin You lay down comfortably, stretched, his body cracking.

The entire day was busy dealing with the Beast Tide.

Now finally able to rest peacefully.

With his spirit relaxed, he fell asleep unknowingly.

…

Meanwhile.

On the Wasteland, within a territory filled with tombstones.

Luo Lei turned off the rankings and regional channel, filled with immense shock in his eyes.

“He unexpectedly… this strong…”

Just earlier, he opened the ranking list and immediately saw a familiar name.

Lin You!

Plant Type!

This is the same man he traded with previously!?

Simply unbelievable, to think he actually knows the ninth-ranked top player! And is so close!

Now that he confronted such a character earlier, Luo Lei’s heart couldn’t help but beat faster, nervous yet thrilled.

As the saying goes, the one closest to water gains the moon first.

He is not far from Lin You, and has had contact, this is definitely a rare opportunity.

If he can build a good relationship with him, then he would have a powerful backing, needing no longer to worry fearfully on this wasteland?

Regional ranking ninth is no joke.

That strength must be unimaginable to him!

Otherwise, it’s impossible to stand out among these ten million people.

“How to build a good relationship with him… Oh! That matter!”

Suddenly, Luo Lei’s eyes lit up, hurriedly opened previous message records, found Lin You’s name, thought for a moment, and quickly sent him a message.

After doing so, he closed the interface, hurriedly leaving his territory with the Tier Four species by his side, heading towards another nearby territory.

…

In the blink of an eye, a night’s time passed.

Early in the morning, Lin You was woken by a pile of message alerts, yawning as he sat up in bed.

Opened the private chat messages, gosh, densely packed.

But soon, his gaze was drawn to a message marked as having past interactions, displaying Luo Lei’s name.

As for this person he traded with and met once before, Lin You remembers very clearly, immediately opened the message to check.

“Destroying Tier Four territories… can also obtain Territory Essence to upgrade to Tier Five!?”

Lin You’s pupils suddenly contracted.

On it is written the way to upgrade to Tier Five.

To get the Tier Five Territory Essence, besides clearing nests and killing Tier Five Demons, it can also be obtained by destroying Tier Four territories or killing Lords.

Seeing this, Lin You was completely stunned.

This is the first time he’s heard of obtaining Territory Essence this way.

Isn’t this forcing them to kill each other?

Why would such a rule exist?

Lin You was extremely shocked, knowing this rule once spread will surely incite endless slaughter and plunder.

To upgrade, to survive in this world, people would do anything.

This world… is probably not as simple as he imagined.
