Apocalypse: System of lotteries

Chapter 187 King Of The Arena



Chapter 3, Day 10 in the morning.

Ming activates the personal random copy teleport, and the next moment, a strong smell of blood assaults his senses. He finds himself standing in a hallway, with a popcorn-wielding zombie charging at him.

As the zombie reaches him, he raises his crossbow and shoots it through the head. The black blood flows through the hole in the arrow, and it slowly kneels in front of him, its body tilting forward.

Bang!

Ming lifts his foot and kicks the zombie away, " it almost dirtied my dress pants, which are hard to clean."

[Welcome to the Personal Random Instance: King of the Arena]

[Please complete the instance within 24 hours. If you exceed the time limit, you will remain in the instance forever, waiting for the next survivor to complete it before you can leave. If you die, please disregard the previous statement]

[Instance countdown 23:58:34]

"King of the Arena?"

Ming raises his right hand with the crossbow, aiming over his left corner, and pulls the trigger without looking back. A zombie behind him is utterly eradicated.

He sniffs the air, and there are no other zombies nearby. He then checks the five-star clearance conditions:

[1. Complete the instance within 12 hours, three stars]

[2. In addition to completing \'1\', kill all zombies, four stars]

[3. Complete \'1\' and \'2\' and obtain the Championship Gold Belt, five stars]

"A Championship Gold Belt?"

Ming looked at the map and saw that it was a floor plan of an arena building. His current location appeared to be a hallway of a resting area. He would have to take a few turns to reach the central part of the building, which was an octagonal platform.

"Damn!" Ming took another look at the map. It was a UFC octagonal cage!

It turned out to be a fighting arena.

"I wonder where the final boss is?" Ming put the frogs down, letting them scout ahead since the unexplored areas on the map were grayed out.

[Your frogs excitedly hopped forward, curious about the surroundings, finding everything new and interesting. They came across a zombie wandering in the middle of the hallway. they thought it looked too ugly and bypassed the zombie, continuing to hop forward.]

[Da Vinci turned a corner and found a room with an open door. It hopped in and saw a naked zombie. Da Vinci educated Foodie not to learn from this shameless zombie.]

"These two rascals~" Ming glanced in the opposite direction of the frogs\' path, sniffed the air, and confirmed there would be no zombies behind him. He then followed the route the frogs had taken.

He impaled the zombies in the hallway with his pine branch spear and continued onward. He pushed open a door marked with letters, but there was nothing inside.

He realized it was a dressing room and entered. Opening the locker door, he found some personal clothing, but none were his style. There was also a wallet, inside which was a knife.

As he looked down, he saw an entire case of mineral water. He picked it up and checked the production date - it hadn\'t expired. Ming stored the water in his warehouse and left the room to continue his journey.

[Your frogs hopped along the long, dark corridor, occasionally encountering muscular zombies or slim ones, but none were the type Da Vinci wanted. Foodie thought Da Vinci was really picky.]

[Foodie stopped in front of a slightly open door, peeking in. Da Vinci, curious, leaned in as well, seeing a headless corpse inside. The frogs looked at the bloodstains on the floor and decided it was unclean, so they turned and continued hopping forward.]

[The frogs proceeded, and as they reached the end of the corridor, they found the area full of wandering zombies—male, female, old, and young. Da Vinci hinted at Foodie, and Foodie understood.]

[Your frogs split up, Da Vinci going left, and Foodie going right, each searching for beautiful zombies.]

"These two separated?" Ming shook his head but didn\'t worry as he did before, they were fortune frogs, and nothing could happen to them.

[As Foodie hopped along, it was kicked by a  zombie. The zombie stumbled and fell forward, hitting its head on a metal seatback and dying. Foodie thought this zombie was very weak.]

[Foodie looked up and saw that the surrounding zombies were attracted by the impact noise, howling and rushing over, their footsteps chaotic. Foodie was delighted, dodging the feet stomping toward it, playing a foot-stepping game with the zombies.]

"…" Ming shook his head, hoping Foodie wouldn\'t accidentally get killed. He then aimed his pine branch spear at a doorway and coughed. Suddenly, a naked zombie charged out and impaled its head on the spear.

Ming flicked off the black, tainted blood from the spearhead and stepped over the zombie that had foolishly run into his spear, continuing onward.

[Da Vinci shook its head, disappointed in Foodie. It had been tasked with finding attractive zombies, but it started playing games instead. Now it seemed that this mission could only be left to his own. Hopefully, Foodie would be lucky enough not to be squashed by the zombies.]

[Da Vinci dodged to the left, avoiding a high-heeled shoe\'s stomp. It glanced at the black-skirted zombie and used its collection ability, successfully collecting something.]

[Da Vinci dodged again, finding this zombie unattractive. It continued dodging and found it quite fun.]

"…"

Ming rubbed his forehead. his frogs were still as silly as ever. He used his spear to push open a door and saw the headless corpse lying on the floor.

Shoe durability -1

Shoe durability -1

"…"

What happened?

Ming looked down and saw a  headless zombie gnawing on his shoe.

Damn!

Bang! The zombie kicked away, hitting the ceiling before falling to the ground.

Ding~ Killed a level 1 zombie, gained experience 1.0075926.

"…"

[Da Vinci dodged through the chaotic zombie horde, its eyes catching sight of a graceful figure behind the second-floor private room glass. A zombie with an angelic face, Da Vinci went through the zombie crowd in search of a way to the second floor.]

[Foodie went happy, sprinting through the audience seats, croaking happily. It wanted to attract even more zombies and enjoyed the game even more.]

[Foodie ran excitedly...]

[Your Foodie has accepted a hidden nightmare-level quest within the copy. Since it is a frog, the quest is automatically transferred to you. Please check the quest\'s completion as soon as possible.]

"!!!" Ming stopped and turned to go home.

[Friendly reminder: Teleportation scrolls cannot be used within personal replicas. Please complete the quest as soon as possible.]
