Chapter 183: Gold Level Disaster! Worldwide Welfare!
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong…
There were not a lot of game prompts in the past but, at this moment, one after the other, prompt notifications were playing between heaven and the earth.
Standing in front of the ruined castle, Su Mo did not immediately open the game panel to check. Making quick strides up the castle’s uncollapsed stairs, he quickly rushed to the fifth floor.
In the sky where the Heavenly Dog had been shattered, there was a card flashing with golden light, gradually floating downward.
The card did not descend slowly, reaching Su Mo by the time he arrived on the fifth floor.
This card was his reward for killing a God. Su Mo resisted the urge in his heart to immediately check its attributes. After placing it into the storage space, he stomped on the ground heavily and walked over to the white-robed kobold that lay paralyzed on the ground.
“Bastard, where is my sister?”
“Where did you hide her?”
After the Dongfeng missile shattered the Ancestor God, the white-robed kobold was stunned into silence.
After hearing Su Mo’s words, the kobold suddenly rushed up to him as if it was seeking death.
However…
With a light kick, the white-robed kobold flew back at an even faster speed.
Snap!
It hit the ground, and the pain from it felt from both the front and back turned the white-robed kobold’s eyes clearer. Once again, Su Mo asked the same question, causing the kobold to tremble and raise its hand.
“Human, you came to find your sister? You didn’t come to attack our kobold castle?”
“Nonsense, I came for my sister, so don’t give me some gibberish excuse. Where is she?” Standing on the viewing platform and looking at the ruined castle before him, Su Mo’s heart surged with murderous intent.
It seemed that the white-robed kobold realized that Su Mo was serious. As it lay on the ground, it was in total disbelief, eyes full of endless regret.
“You slaughtered more than two thousand kobolds for a sister!”
“You have destroyed the supreme god of a race for the sake of a human being!”
“You… Why didn’t you tell me? If you were here to find your sister, we could talk it through! Why, just why?”
Howling and crying!
Paralyzed on the ground, the white-robed kobold was seemingly suffering a grievance from the heavens at this time, with drops of tears gushing onto the scorched city wall like spring water.
“Hold on, you’d better make things clear. More than half of the kobolds were killed by you. What does it have to do with me?”
“Also, as soon as I arrived, I mentioned that I was looking for my sister. You didn’t believe me and continued to call on your ancestor god to descend and serve its own head on a silver platter!”
“By the way, what kind of lousy god was that? I don’t know why such a newbie came to show off. Of course I would slaughter it along the way!”
Hearing the sorrowful cry of the white-robed kobold, Su Mo interrupted him “righteously” and stated his reasons articulately.
Unfortunately…
To the tear-stained kobold, these three sentences were like arrows through its heart, causing it to tremble endlessly.
More than half of the kobolds were killed by me…
Descended only to serve its own head on a silver platter…
Slaughtered along the way…
Although these three arrows were invisible, they firmly dug into the heart of the white-robed kobold.
Clutching its chest, blobs of blood spilled forth from the corner of its mouth, before spewing out like an opened faucet.
In the blink of an eye, its scarlet blood had formed a small puddle on the ground.
Su Mo tried to poke it with his spear and, when he didn’t get a response, even after smashing its hand, he flicked his spear and ended its life with a single blow.
“His psychological endurance was not much better than Kento Maeda!”
Seeing that Su Chan’s avatar on his friends’ list was still lit up, Su Mo was almost 100% sure that this was indeed a “misunderstanding”.
However… so what?
Since everything ended in an acceptable manner, it was all good!
“Once this disaster ends, Sis will obtain some points. At that time, I will be able to contact her directly!”
Recalling the rules for issuing disaster points, Su Mo’s anxiety was slightly relieved.
When he withdrew his spear tip, a surprising scene took place. After the white-robed kobold died, it turned into white light. As the white light dissipated, a treasure chest emitting golden light appeared in its place, leaving no trace of the corpse of the white-robed kobold.
“This…this is!”
The moment the white-robed kobold died, a few more game panel notifications popped out again.
He immediately opened the game panel to check the messages. In Su Mo’s memory, a small detail emerged.
“The white-robed kobold, as the supreme leader of the kobold tribe, unexpectedly left behind a treasure chest in this way after dying.”
“Doesn’t that mean that…”
“The mutant chameleon I killed the first time was also the leader of a race?!”
In fact, after such a long period, Su Mo already had his suspicions about the treasure chest that he obtained from killing the chameleon back then.
It was a silver treasure chest and the things he had obtained from it were great.
Even if he didn’t consider the most critical psychic energy water, and the pet egg that gave birth to Oreo, the energy bike design blueprint, and the other miscellaneous items were all rare treasures.
The same death animation, the same white light…
Focusing mentally as he stood on the castle wall, Su Mo called up the backlog of system messages he had ignored, which inundated him almost instantly.
[Record]: A gold-level disaster has been detected and the current iron-level disaster “blizzard” has been forcibly replaced. All players are requested to prepare for the disaster.
[Record]: This disaster has been officially renamed “The Disaster of the Giant God”!
[Record]: The disaster is approaching, and the player “Su Mo” has been detected to be within the scope of the disaster. Please escape as soon as possible!
[Record]: The gold-level disaster, “The Disaster of the Giant God”, has been forcibly defeated by the player “Su Mo”, and the disaster is over.
[Record]: It has been detected that the completion rate of the gold-level disaster is 100%, and the first-level gold-level disaster rewards have been issued.
[Record]: The recipient of the disaster rewards: All players.
[Record]: Dear respected player “Su Mo”, as the only “God Slayer” in this disaster, please choose this disaster’s welfare reward distributions!
Six panel messages popped up at once. Although there were still many messages below, because of the selection box, the remaining notifications were temporarily inaccessible.
“Welfare? Reward distributions?”
After going through the message on the game panel several times, Su Mo smiled and lightly tapped on the welfare panel with his finger.
“This is an unexpected surprise. After killing the kobolds, everyone will be able to receive the rewards, and the game panel is even giving me the ability to decide the reward. This is interesting!”
The welfare panel was not unfamiliar at all to Su Mo.
This panel displayed not only the grass raincoat that had resisted the acid rainstorm during the first disaster, but also some primary level items that had disappeared from the manufacturing panel.
At the bottom, Su Mo even saw the pancakes, gnocchi soup, and even the oiled noodles he had made in the shelter previously.
After swiping around, he saw that there were only three welfare items to choose from. He looked at the white sun that had emerged in the distance and stared at the snow that covered the ground. Su Mo pulled off his mask and took a deep breath of the very cold air.
At the same time, his finger tapped on the panel, selecting his choice of the welfare items!
…
“Mom, I’m so hungry. Will we have food tomorrow? Brother Su Mo is so amazing. Can we find his shelter and join him?”
Somewhere in a nest, after watching the whole live broadcast, a mother and daughter hugged each other tightly, sharing their limited body warmth.
The blizzard disaster had passed, but the cold continued.
Without the interference of the game, the weather seemed to have returned to normal. Due to the accumulated snowfall, the temperature fell to even more terrifying levels.
Hearing her daughter’s words, the mother in her forties shook her head first, and then nodded helplessly. After touching her daughter’s dry hair, the mother trembled and took out the last piece…
The last piece of tree bark!
Seeing the bark, the daughter’s mouth immediately began to secrete saliva but, looking at her mother’s weak face, she shook and lowered her head.
“If we could join Su Mo’s shelter… it would be great!”
Seeing her daughter’s obedient and sensible behaviour, the mother muttered to herself, seemingly able to imagine the world her daughter dreamed of.
A blast of cold wind blew past, and the plant fibers that covered the buried nest fluttered in the wind.
After the blood from all the excitement faded, reality set in once again, and they were faced with the cold weather, and… the approaching clutches of death.
There was no flame to keep them warm, and the consciousness of the mother and daughter began to fade but, just as the two were about to slip into unconsciousness, a crisp clanging noise suddenly sounded in the nest!
The mother struggled to open her eyes, looking vaguely in the direction of the sound…
“Torches, pancakes, gnocchi soup… so good, so good!”
The mother’s voice began to grow softer and, even though there was an unbearable scent assaulting her nose, she shook her head, her eyes full of emotion.
“It turns out that such a scene would appear just before dying. Hahaha!”
Drops of tears gushed slowly from the corner of the mother’s eyes, her consciousness quickly faded, and bits of darkness began to cloud her mind.
However…
Just as the mother was about to close her eyes, she saw her daughter excitedly grab the pancake and place it in front of her eyes. She was mumbling something about being saved.
“Lei Lei, you can have it. Mom is not hungry, mom is…”
“Huh?”
In an instant, the mother suddenly reacted. This was not an illusion.
The two bowls of fragrant gnocchi soup were still exuding heat, and the big pancakes the size of a human head were still very soft. Those two fire torches would continue to burn for 12 hours as long as they were ignited. Neither wind nor water would be able to extinguish the flames…
All this was not an illusion!
“Eat quickly, Lei Lei. You must be starving already. Hurry up and eat it while it’s hot.”
The warm torch was ignited. She did not care to check where these things had come from.
They brought the gnocchi soup to their mouths, and the mother and daughter drank heartily. With the fullness brought about by the hot food, both of their faces were filled with happy smiles.
[Record]: …
The prompt notification of two game panels slowly sounded. This time the mother and daughter were no longer shocked or excited. Instead their faces carried a trace of “devotion” that had never been seen before during the civilized era!
As dawn broke over the wasteland, the two of them knelt on the ground spontaneously, and began to call out Su Mo’s name…
…
Somewhere in another nest, a dozen children who were around the age of seventeen or eighteen hugged each other for warmth. After experiencing Su Mo slay the god, even after the live broadcast was turned off, these children were still very excited and kept conversing with each other about the feeling in their hearts.
“Almighty Su… I want to become a person like Almighty Su!”
“Why don’t we try to find Almighty Su’s shelter? Let’s join his team!”
“Come on, we’re a bunch of bones. If we can’t find food tomorrow, I’m afraid we will all die here!”
The moment someone spoke of death, even though they were just children, it was inevitable that the atmosphere would turn silent.
In the civilized era, these children would have only been high school students. Having them suddenly face a life and death crisis was cruel indeed.
“If only…”
“If only what? If only a mouthful of food and water was given and then, after that, a Dongfeng missile as well? Are you…”
“Brother Meng, look!”
“What is there to look at?”
When the child who was called Brother Meng turned and looked around, he was stunned!
Not far from everyone, there were more than ten piping hot bowls of gnocchi soup on the ground, accompanied by a dozen pancakes. There were also bundles of torches…
Brother Meng was stunned!
The others were also stunned!
The next moment, all the children rushed to the place where the food was, like hungry tigers coming out of the cage.
They did not care that the gnocchi soup was a little too hot, gulping it down ravenously.
Especially the soft pancakes, they made their empty stomachs feel instantly full.
“It’s Su Mo, no, it’s Almighty Su! This is the disaster relief reward issued by Almighty Su! This was from Almighty Su!”
“F*ck! It’s really Almighty Su, awesome!”
Listening to the game prompts in their ears, for a while, the idols in these children’s hearts were no longer those illusory cartoon or novel characters.
In their minds, a superhero with an upright body, wearing gray-black armor and daring to point an iron spear at the giant god suddenly appeared!
…
In the large shelters…
In the lone wolf shelters in the wilderness…
When more and more disaster rewards were distributed, whether it was the World Channel or regional channels, the topics being discussed were only pancakes, gnocchi soup, torches, and…
Su Mo.
