Chapter 2351 The Rank Dropped
Dark Emperor? What is he doing here? Shouldn’t it be Levi? Why is it him? On that note, why are their silhouettes so similar? They look exactly the same!
Everyone was puzzled.
“What is it?” Levi asked.
“W-We came here looking for someone. We’ll take our leave now!” answered one of them with a slight shiver in his voice.
No one wanted to offend him.
Then they took a look around, and realized that Levi was not there.
Is he in danger? Or did he run away? Since Dark Emperor’s here, does that mean there are mutated zombies here? If that’s the case, Levi’s most probably…
Cold sweat started seeping out of everyone’s pores at the thought of that possibility.
“I know who you’re looking for! He has already left the forest! He’s waiting for you all at the place you people came from!” Levi said to not make them worry.
Initially, he wanted to wait for them there, but he hit some minor roadblocks along the way.
When he got there, Zoey and the lot were already there.
Levi did not even have time to take off his mask.
“Thank you, Master!”
Zoey and the others were thrilled when they heard what he said and left immediately to see Levi.
They assumed that Dark Emperor had saved Levi.
And that assumption got affirmed from how detailed Dark Emperor’s information was.
Thus, after they left, Levi left as well, but in a different direction.
He made sure to avoid Maya Industries’ surveillance as he escaped.
When Zoey and the others got out of the indigenous forest, Levi was indeed waiting for them.
“Let’s head back if there’s nothing else. It’s dangerous here.”
And so, they did not linger and left straight away.
…
On Maya Industries’ battleship.
“This is weird. Dark Emperor’s gone! We had him under surveillance! How did he disappear?”
The surveillance team was dumbfounded.
“That’s to be expected! With how strong he is, he most probably revealed himself to us in the first place,” one of the higher-ups said.
“With Dark Emperor here, it’ll be hard for us to execute the rest of the plan. But we can’t get rid of him, sigh. This is annoying.”
Everyone’s had a grim look on their faces.
“Who said that we have to get rid of him? We could work together! Let’s collaborate with the Dark Emperor!”
“We do have quite some leverage in our hands.”
“That could actually work!”
“Alright then, that gives us two things to do. One, meet Dark Emperor and talk about a collaboration. Two, analyze the data we’ve collected and improve the zombies’ attacks!”
That said, everyone’s expression did not light up.
They had thought that the zombie army they created was invincible as even the top ten of the Divine Leaderboard were helpless against them.
They thought they could dominate the world with it and let the people taste despair.
However, the result showed that the army was utterly useless when faced with truly powerful fighters.
So, the only thing they could do was take it slow.
…
Even though the tournament challenge ended halfway through, there were still some significant changes to the Divine Leaderboard and the Provisional Leaderboard.
There were no big changes for most of the participants.
It was mainly Zoey, whose rank improved drastically and went straight from top one hundred to top fifty on the Divine Leaderboard, instantly closing the gap between her, Kirin, Floyd, and Sword Fiend.
The people from Lopez and Black families that tagged along also experienced rapid growth after surviving numerous life-and-death situations.
The upgrade in their combat prowess meant that their ranks would also increase, so they were all thrilled about it.
On the other hand, Levi’s ranking on the Provisional Leaderboard dropped.
It was because Levi technically did nothing that whole time.
Moreover, a lot of the participants got significantly stronger.
So naturally, a lot of people climbed over him in terms of rank.
“Master, you only have half a month left! How could you let your rank drop?”
