Chapter 113 - 113: 113: What Effect Does Data Upgrading

Have?

Translator: 549690339

Yes.

No matter where that voice came from, everyone heard it clearly; it said: Upgrade the players’ data.

This statement was indeed discomforting. They were not machines, what did it mean to upgrade data?

Chang Weicai hesitated, then spoke: “Now that you mention it… after we left the maze, I felt like my body has become younger…”

“No way.” Tan Xiao scrutinized him, “You still have a lot of wrinkles on your face.

Chang seemed embarrassed, “Not…not that type of ‘young’, I mean physically, my arms and legs seem more agile, and I feel stronger than before.”

“Now that you mention it… I also feel like… something has changed with me…” Tan Xiao scratched his head, looked around, spotted a tree by the side of the road, walked over and threw a punch!

Bang!

The tree didn’t break.

However, the spot that was hit, the rough bark split directly! The branches and leaves shook, and the leaves began to rustle down!

Tan Xiao’s eyes widened, almost popping out of his sockets in astonishment!

“No way…” He murmured, raising his fist again. This time he used all his strength and fiercely hit the tree trunk—

“Behold my unstoppable Herculean punch! ! !”

Bang!

The trunk was split from the inside!

The result was indeed astonishing. At the same time, Tan Xiao squatted down, clutching his fist in pain.

It hurt.

Seeing this, others began to make their attempts. Some tested their strength, some their speed, some their bodily resilience, and others simply jumped on the spot to see how high they could go.

Even Chang began doing push-ups on the ground.

For a moment, the scene looked absurd.

Only two people remained motionless:

One was Bai Youwei, and the other was Shen Mo.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“It seems the maze rewards are much more substantial than game rewards. Previous games only rewarded one-time use items, while the maze can upgrade physical abilities in a comprehensive manner.” Shen MO said, “With this physical ability, if we participate in a ‘Tortoise and the Hare’ styled game, it is almost impossible to lose.”

Bai Youwei slowly nodded, “…Also, those who possess a puzzle piece have a chance to skip a game.”

When grasping the puzzle piece, its function automatically appeared in the mind—

[1: Collect all puzzle pieces to win any game]

[2: Each puzzle piece grants one additional game exemption]

In a world where life-or-death games were encountered at any moment, gaining the right to opt-out of a game is equivalent to gaining an extra life!

“But…” Bai Youwei gently rubbed the puzzle piece with her fingertips, “the information didn’t tell us how many pieces constitute a complete puzzle…”

“Tu Dan said, Hangzhou also has the fog.” Shen MO speculated, “If the areas with concentrated populations all have mazes, we may be able to estimate the number of mazes from the number of cities.’

Bai Youwei pondered for a moment, then turned to Chang Weicai and asked, “In terms of population, where does Hangzhou rank among our nation’s cities?”

Chang Weicai was taken aback for a moment, then responded, “Around 20th place.”

“This ranking may not be a valid reference.” Shen MO said, “Chongqing, Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou have the largest populations and were the first ones affected. Later, a large number of people in Shanghai moved to Suzhou and Hangzhou, so Hangzhou’s current population ranking should be significantly higher than 20.”

Upon hearing their discussion, Tan Xiao naturally asked, “So, are we going to Hangzhou next?”

The only way to obtain a puzzle piece is by entering a maze.

If they want to collect all pieces of the puzzle, they must aim for the cities engulfed in the fog.

Shen MO pondered for a moment, then turned to students like Chen Hui and Zhang Tianyang, and asked, “What are your plans for what comes next?”
