Chapter 208: Chapter 207: Return to the Main World

"But luckily I’ve already obtained an Attack Coin from the Tracker’s treasure box, " Zhang Yanhang pondered, "and I still have nine fragments of Attack Coins in hand, so it shouldn’t be a problem to assemble another new Attack Coin. I’ll choose Option Thirty-Eight, Teacher Zombie."

Although the number of Prototype Tyrants in the prize pool hadn’t increased, Zhang Yanhang still needed to continue clearing out the pool, confident that a few more rounds would definitely yield another Blue Treasure Box; it was just a matter of time.

Ten minutes later, Zhang Yanhang skillfully cleared the Lucky Slot Machine’s prize pool once again, but regrettably, the Prototype Tyrant within still miserly refused to drop a treasure box.

But according to Zhang Yanhang’s experience, at most five more clears of the prize pool would be needed, and within those five rounds, one of the Prototype Tyrants was bound to drop a treasure box.

After collecting all the treasure boxes dropped by other monsters in the prize pool and packing them into his waist bag, Zhang Yanhang immediately shouldered the slot machine and returned to Room 301 of Dulda Apartment.

After placing the slot machine back in its original spot, Zhang Yanhang glanced at the time on his watch—there were just about five more minutes before the transmission channel was set to officially close.

"I’m about to head home; I’m really looking forward to what changes the Heavenly Destiny Master will undergo after my promotion to Second Tier. Besides that, my Multiple Choice Talent should also grow stronger with the rank increase and exert even more significant effects than before."

Zhang Yanhang had previously inquired with the group admin about the superpowers Awakeners developed and was told that a superpower was bound to strengthen as one ascended in rank.

Therefore, he believed that his own Multiple Choice Talent, despite being somewhat unique, should logically also grow stronger with rank promotion, which means the options triggered by Multiple Choice would surely become even more potent.

Zhang Yanhang had never forgotten the name of his talent— "Multiple Choice."

Yet now, he could only make single choices; he felt his ability somewhat fell short of its name. However, Zhang Yanhang was confident that one day, his Talent would evolve to a level where multiple choices could be made.

Zhang Yanhang remembered that the group admin’s Talent initially suffered the same issue. With a name like "Curse Binding Vajra," yet during the First Tier Period, the power was hardly related to the name, only able to summon a common Golden Ring to engage foes. But later, it evolved to summon not just the four-armed Curse Binding Vajra but also the Curse Binding Golden Ring.

Lying on the shabby wooden bed in Room 301, Zhang Yanhang quietly contemplated matters of Talent. Five minutes flew by quickly, and soon, a lengthy row of text boxes appeared in front of him.

"[Would you like to return to the Main World?]"

"[Option One: Yes (After having worked tirelessly for nine and a half hours to finally completely clear Raccoon City, even though you have consumed Green Medicine Grass, you feel utterly exhausted at this moment, barely able to muster any energy throughout your body, and you just want to lie down in bed and sleep for a while.

Even though you’re somewhat keen on clearing the Goblin Plain located to the west of Raccoon City, you suddenly find yourself resistant to the idea of overtime. Therefore, you immediately return to your bedroom in Room 505 of the Xingfu District in Qin Island City Main World.)]"

"[Option Two: No (Though the Main World’s teleportation channel to the Ashen World is about to close, you’ve suddenly lost interest in returning to the Main World. You feel that you don’t need to return to the Main World right now and completely believe you can open the Ashen Treasure Box and advance to Second Tier right there in the Ashen World.

Having successfully advanced to Second Tier in the Ashen World, although you’ve just emptied Raccoon City, you’re immediately interested in several new areas surrounding it. After a brief exploration, you ultimately select the weakest, Goblin Plain, as the first target for clearance.)]"

"[Option Three: Explore New Area (With the teleportation channel to the Ashen World about to close, you inexplicably become intrigued by the steep cliff to the east of Raccoon City. After a careful investigation, you’re astonished to find that it’s not any ordinary cliff but a colossal city wall stretching for an unknown number of kilometers.

This tremendous wall is naturally formed and incredibly sturdy, constructed from a strange material unknown to you. Through special means, you learn that the area shrouded by the wall is circular, and after roughly measuring the wall’s curvature, you realize the enclosed reach extends far beyond Raccoon City’s area.)]"

"High wall?!" For some unknown reason, upon seeing the third option, Zhang Yanhang’s mind inexplicably flashed the phrase, ’That day, humanity remembered the fear of being dominated by the Giants.’

"Why did it suddenly change from a steep cliff to a gigantic circular wall? Are you trying to reenact ’Attack on Titan’ here?" However, Zhang Yanhang recalled that the walls in Attack on Titan were only a few dozen meters high, minor compared to this side’s walls that loomed thousands of meters tall, hardly worth mentioning.

If there were also monsters on this side taller than the wall, Zhang Yanhang estimated that such a creature would need to possess at least Fourth Tier strength, seeing that the size was so grand, the power surely couldn’t be weak.

"Forget it, no more thinking about the wall for now; after all, I definitely won’t be clearing it out anytime soon. After all, my next targets are the Crimson Iron Ant Nest and Goblin Plain. Only after clearing these two places will I consider my subsequent targets."

Zhang Yanhang figured the transmission channel to the Crimson Iron Ant Nest would reopen soon. This time when he travels to the Ant Nest, he will undoubtedly clear it out completely. What about missing classes due to spending too much time in the Ashen World? That can be easily resolved; he’ll just need to take a leave of absence.

If he requests leave, the school won’t report an Awakener’s disappearance to the authorities.

"So, I choose Option One, and I’ll immediately return to the Main World." Having made his choice, time resumed its flow. Zhang Yanhang’s vision went dark, then dimmed, and after nine and a half hours, he finally found himself back on his big bed in the bedroom.

Because he had closed the curtains and turned off the lights before going to bed the previous night, the room was still dim despite it being morning, with only faint sunlight filtering through the thick curtains, making the bedroom appear as if it were dusk.

Zhang Yanhang decided to get some sleep before opening the treasure box; he was simply too tired. Before entering the Ashen World, he hadn’t rested all day and had planned to get a good night’s sleep. But just half an hour after lying down, he was prompted with the option to go to the Ashen World.
