Chapter 431: Top 1 Survivor Rank Rewards

Needless to say, resources were very important in the apocalypse. The zombie virus had even managed to mutate plants, making it less plausible to plant and farm edible crops.

But with the Nine Rules of Order, no one had to worry about their enemy infiltrating their base at night to destroy or contaminate their food supplies and resources.

Due to this, human evil had become much more restrained under the constraints of the Nine Rules of Order. The zombie apocalypse had become a much more straightforward "kill and plunder" between humans and a war between evolvers and zombies.

It allowed survivors to focus more on important matters, greatly increasing the survival rate of Terrans within the zombie apocalypse.

Although several billion people still had died, the casualties would have been much greater if not for the establishment of the Nine Rules of Order.

It could be said that the people on Main World Terra owed the Sovereign of Order a lot.

However, what they didn’t expect was that the Sovereign of Order, whom they presumed to be a high-ranking God, was also a Terran like them!

Just that discovery alone made some of them become confident, no longer having to worry about the top-tier combat forces of humanity being inferior to the top powerhouses of hostile factions or races in the upcoming Monthly Apocalypse World Update.

Of course, there were those top powerhouses who were worried about someone that powerful looming above their heads, such as Arthur and Green, who would have been Top 1 and Top 2 respectively if not for Zayne and Jade’s existence.

However, the two of them couldn’t even be envious. Although they didn’t know how powerful the Sovereign of Time Jade Willows was, they still recalled the powerlessness they felt when the Sovereign of Order had made a global announcement and established the Nine Rules of Order.

At that time, they even assumed that the Sovereign of Order wasn’t much worse than the World Will, both capable of achieving world-altering feats.

In some ways, although Zayne used to be a normal human like them, Arthur and Green still begrudgingly convinced themselves that they were no longer worthy to even be compared to him, let alone compete.

Due to not activating his spiritual sense, Zayne and Jade weren’t aware of what other people had been eavesdropping about them. But with their intelligence, they could still guess the reaction they had when discovering the existence of the Sovereign of Order and Sovereign of Time in the Top Survivor Ranking.

While Zayne and Jade were checking the Top Survivor Ranking that listed up to the Top 1,000, the two of them were soon interrupted by a notification sound from the World Will of Terra.

[The reward settlement for those at Top 1-1,000 in the Top Survivor Ranking will now be distributed!]

After that world announcement was made, Zayne received a notification and system screens displaying texts that could only be seen by him.

Not only Zayne, but Jade and the other powerhouses who were listed on the Top Survivor Ranking also received such notifications and rewards.

-Ding!

[For placing Top 1 in the <Top Survivor Ranking>, you shall receive the following reward: Top 1 Survivor Title (Upgradeable), Evolver Ruler Peak Stage Power Core, Second Viral Superpower: Great Weakening, 100 Permanent Inventory Slots (Can Be Used To Store Any Item), 100 Years Non-Perishable Food Supply Package, and High Human Bloodline Fruit.]

After Zayne received that notification, the following rewards from the World Will were transferred to his inventory.

For survivors in the Zombie Apocalypse, while there wasn’t a world or regional chat group, there was at least an inventory space. The inventory space wasn’t as versatile and useful as Zayne’s system inventory.

For example, only rewards or items acquired from the World Will, such as the treasure chest items, could be placed within the inventory space. Any item acquired from the outside world couldn’t be placed inside it.

Even if someone were to eliminate a zombie and acquire their zombie crystal, that zombie crystal couldn’t be placed inside the inventory. But if one were to acquire a zombie crystal from the treasure chest, that specific zombie crystal could be placed whenever within the inventory.

Checking his rewards, Zayne shook his head, "The rewards are trashier than I expected."

After looking at her rewards, Jade sighed in agreement, "It couldn’t be helped. This is only the first Monthly Apocalypse World Update Theme. If I’m not mistaken, the Top Survivor Ranking rewards are dependent on the difficulty of the Monthly Apocalypse World Update Theme."

"The difficulty of the zombie apocalypse isn’t that high, which explains the low-tier rewards we received."

Zayne contemplated for a while before stating, "If we think about it, the rewards we’ve received by placing in this Top Survivor Ranking are very useful for the average survivor."

"The two of us are anomalies and can’t be used as a reference. But if Arthur and Green were to receive the rewards we have, it would have greatly boosted their power."

"In fact, it’s their reliable source for acquiring the High Human Bloodline Fruit. In our case, the two of us don’t need it since we’re both already Human Progenitors. But currently, even Arthur and Green only have the bloodline rank of a normal human."

After Zayne and Jade shared the information about each other’s rewards, the two of them couldn’t help but agree on that point.

Needless to say, the Evolver Ruler Peak Stage Power Core was an item that could allow anyone who consumed it to increase their power rank from Evolver Overlord to Evolver Ruler Peak Stage.

As for the Second Viral Superpower: Great Weakening, it worked as its name stated. It allowed anyone who received this reward to gain a Second Viral Superpower, specifically the viral superpower of Great Weakening.

Zayne’s first viral superpower was Disease Manipulation. He barely had any use for it due to his low evolution power rank.

As for Great Weakening, it was quite useful. It allowed him to apply a debuff to his target, which would greatly weaken their power, with a limit of weakening their power by up to 99%!
