Chapter 1159: Chapter 367: Taking First and Third Place, Rule Reward
“Hmm? This… doesn’t seem very reliable?” Mu Rufeng said somewhat unbelievingly.
As you know, Mu Rufeng is now Level 9 Divine Realm, not to mention if an ore fell, even a meteor he could avoid.
“It’s not that simple. Although I don’t know the situation exactly, if it really hits you, it might be dangerous.”
“However, don’t worry. With your current mining speed and Lord Nan’s protection, there is absolutely no danger.” Jian Chengsang patted Mu Rufeng’s shoulder and said.
The quantity of mining also matters for performance. As long as rankings are involved, Zhu Nan would receive a reward.
Zhu Nan also told them that usually, they just need to fulfill the set quota, and anything extra they dig up should be stored.
Once stored to a certain amount, it would be handed over to one person to secure the first place.
Since their numbers are too few, they cannot compete for the top spot against areas with more people.
Therefore, they could only use this method to get first place.
It’s not just this area; other small areas also use this method, and those in higher ranked areas turn a blind eye.
After all, it’s impossible for the top areas to take all the benefits, and not leave even the soup for the lower areas, right?
But due to the lack of numbers, some weaker ones barely complete their quotas, so their stored amount is pitifully small.
Thus, trying to get the first place takes years to rotate even once.
“Alright.” Mu Rufeng slightly nodded, not continuing to chat with Jian Chengsang.
Instead, he resumed his grand mining enterprise.
In the blink of an eye, time reached eight in the evening.
With the ethereal drumbeat, the prison guard announced the end of the work period.
“Work time is over; everyone must place their mined ore in the recycling zone. You have a quarter of an hour.” The prison guard shouted loudly.
Those abnormalities immediately walked towards the platform recycling zone.
“How much ore do you have now?” Jian Chengsang asked Mu Rufeng.
“I have 9.2 million catties here.” Mu Rufeng replied.
“9.2 million catties? Good, great, I mined 1.1 million catties today, adding up to 10.3 million catties.” Jian Chengsang was beaming with joy.
“Let’s go to the recycling zone over there and see what the first place got. As long as we get first place, you can also submit some ore yourself and get into the top five or top ten.”
Jian Chengsang immediately pulled Mu Rufeng to the platform recycling zone.
At this moment, the recycling zone was surrounded by many abnormalities, constantly throwing the ore they mined into the zone.
Soon, the two arrived at an empty recycling zone.
Jian Chengsang immediately released his ghostly domain, covering an area around them.
Then, Jian Chengsang directly took out 100,000 catties of ore and threw them into the recycling zone.
“The first place this time is 4.5 million catties. To be safe, add an extra million; bring out 5.5 million catties of ore.”
Jian Chengsang checked the rankings and then said to Mu Rufeng.
“Okay.” Mu Rufeng nodded, waved his hand, and 5.5 million catties of ore appeared beside them.
Without saying a word, Jian Chengsang gathered up these ores and stored them in his Storage Space.
However, he couldn’t carry such a weight in one go, so he had to transfer them batch by batch in his Storage Space before placing them beside him again.
“Brother Sang, what are you doing…?” Mu Rufeng looked at Jian Chengsang in some confusion.
“Once it’s taken a round in my Storage Space, it’s tainted with my aura. When I put them back into the recycling zone, they’ll be judged as ores I mined.” Jian Chengsang explained.
“Oh, I see.” Mu Rufeng nodded slightly.
Afterwards, both of them tacitly stood still without making any other moves.
Both of them understood that if they wanted to snatch first place, they couldn’t submit the ore too early, as it would give other abnormalities time to counter.
Therefore, they had to wait until the last few seconds to throw in the ore, ensuring security. In streaming terms, it was like stealing the tower in the final seconds during PK.
In the last ten seconds, Jian Chengsang immediately threw all 5 million catties of ore into the zone.
In an instant, the name that was originally in first place with 4.5 million catties dropped to second place.
And first place had already become Jian Chengsang’s 5 million catties.
Jian Chengsang conserving moves while stealing the tower also conserved 50,000 catties of ore.
Meanwhile, Mu Rufeng looked over, submitted 3.6 million catties, and instantly snatched third place.
The second place was 4.5 million, and Mu Rufeng only had 3.7 million ore left, so naturally, he couldn’t reach it.
And the third place was 3.5 million; Mu Rufeng just slightly added 100,000 catties to secure third place.
The fifteen minutes were up.
“Boom boom boom!” The loud drumbeat resounded once more.
“Today’s mining time is over, and these are the top ten rankings.” The Emperor Sovereign sitting on the recycling zone column spoke.
He stood up and directly announced the top ten rankings.
“Tenth place, Liu Zhun, 1.58 million, Emperor Sovereign cultivation.”
“Ninth place, Qian Yifeng, 1.6 million, Emperor Sovereign cultivation.”
…
“Third place, Mu Rufeng, 3.6 million catties, Divine Realm cultivation, equivalent to Ghost Emperor.”
“Second place, Luo Cheng, 4.5 million catties, Emperor Sovereign cultivation.”
