Awoke As A God After Auto Battling For 1000000 Years

Chapter 117: Chapter 116: Land of Slaughter, Battle for the Treasure Chests!



Behind the Gate of Hell lies a land of treasures.

The silver coins, materials, and equipment scattered everywhere are just minor spoils.

The greatest rewards lie in the treasure chests.

Treasure chests are divided into seven grades: Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Star Glory, and King.

The higher the grade, the more valuable the chest, but also the harder it is to find.

Most of these chests are guarded by level 35–40 man-eating worm-type monsters.

Zhang Yue and his party of five cut through swarms of worms along the way. So far, the highest chest they've found is a Silver-tier chest.

No one knows how vast the world behind the Gate of Hell truly is.

With only three hours, the adventurers inside can only wander and explore aimlessly.

Ultimately, the quality of the chests they find depends entirely on luck.

But Zhang Yue? He is determined to locate the one and only Hell Chest.

As time passed, more and more adventurers entered the Gate of Hell to hunt for treasures.

Members of the Supreme, God of War, and Misty Rain Pavilion guilds all joined the fray.

Of course, a large-scale event like this wouldn't be complete without the participation of the Infinite Guild.

However, the number of treasure chests inside the Gate is limited. On average, only one in ten adventurers will manage to claim a chest.

As a result, conflicts erupted as adventurers fought fiercely to claim treasure chests.

What was once a land of treasures quickly turned into a land of slaughter.

This chaos was especially evident with the Infinite Guild.

Relying on their large numbers, the Infinite Guild gave no quarter to other adventurers. Whenever they saw a chest, they used brute force to take it. Anyone who dared resist was killed without mercy.

Alternatively, they simply hunted down other adventurers and stole their treasure chests.

The Infinite Guild members were not only high-level but also fully equipped with golden gear, their strength unparalleled. Each of them was capable of taking on ten foes at once—this is no exaggeration.

Even the three major guilds—Supreme, God of War, and Misty Rain Pavilion—were no match for them, let alone independent adventurers.

Thus, the entire Gate of Hell became the Infinite Guild's slaughterhouse.

Many independent adventurers, who entered hoping to snatch a couple of chests for some extra income, ended up losing not only their treasures but also their lives. Their resentment toward the Infinite Guild grew with every death.

Outside the gate, fallen adventurers teleported out were filled with complaints:

"Infinite Guild is the worst. I finally found a Black Iron chest, and not only did they steal it, but they also killed me."

"This is supposed to be the number-one guild in Zhejiang Province? They're nothing but heartless bandits and thugs."

"Keep your voice down. They're backed by the Tian family, the number-one clan in Tianjing. We can't afford to provoke them. Just take the loss and move on."

Inside the Gate of Hell, Zhang Yue swung his staff and unleashed an S-tier skill. Alongside Lin Tian and Wu Haotian, they annihilated a swarm of level 36 man-eating worms, earning a Bronze-tier chest.

"Half an hour in, and we've only found one Silver-tier chest. This is way too inefficient." Wu Haotian complained.

Lin Tian added, "The Infinite Guild has already started indiscriminately killing people to steal their chests."

His words gave Zhang Yue an idea,"Killing and looting… not a bad strategy at all."

———

In a distant corner, a pair of low-level adventurers—a man and a woman—were being pushed back by a five-man Infinite Guild squad.

The man pleaded desperately, "We've only just arrived and haven't found any chests yet. Please let us go!"

Slash! Slash! Slash!

A Infinite assassin darted through the two adventurers like a phantom. Moments later, both were slain.

Clink!

Two beams of white light flashed, and a bronze-colored chest dropped to the ground.

The assassin, now marked red with a 33-level ID labeled Infinite Hunter, feigned regret as he looked at the chest,"If you'd handed it over willingly, you might've lived. Why bother?"

Just as he was about to pick up the chest, a shadow flashed past, and the Bronze-tier chest vanished.

"What the hell? Where's my chest?"

Infinite Hunter froze, then roared angrily, "Who's there? How dare you steal from the Infinite Guild? Are you tired of living?"

Looking up, he saw a man clad in a black cloak, holding a staff radiating magical energy, walking toward them.

At first glance, none of the five Infinite members recognized Zhang Yue.

Infinite Hunter scoffed, "A mere Beastmaster? You think you can rob the Infinite Guild? Courting death, are we?"

He lunged at Zhang Yue with his Shadow Strike skill, aiming for a quick kill.

But before he could get close—

BOOM!

Zhang Yue casually waved his staff, and a fiery projectile descended from the sky, striking Infinite Hunter dead-on.

-5836!

Instant kill!

With a loud thud, Infinite Hunter knelt before Zhang Yue before his body disintegrated into white light.

The remaining four members, recognizing the damage output, immediately realized who Zhang Yue was.

"Crap! It's Zero!"

"Run!"

Before they could escape, Zhang Yue swiftly cast a flurry of high-damage skills, killing three on the spot.

The last one ran straight into a Fire Knight, was impaled, and then electrocuted by a Lightning Mage, ascending to the heavens in a charred spiral.

With all five enemies dead, they dropped two Black Iron chests, one Bronze chest, and other loot.

Zhang Yue's team had spent half an hour searching for six chests, yet in just thirty seconds, they had collected four by killing a few Infinite Guild members.

"Turns out their methods really are the fastest way to gather treasure," Zhang Yue remarked.

From then on, the group changed tactics.

Instead of searching for treasure, they hunted Infinite Guild members across the map.

One kill after another, they wiped out Infinite squads wherever they found them.

The Infinite Guild, dominant over others, stood no chance against Zhang Yue's legendary Necromancer skills and S-tier equipment.

Eventually, the Infinite Guild's leader, Infinite Phantom, couldn't hold back and raged in the public chat, "I didn't provoke you! Don't push me too far!"

[Zero]: "Well, since you put it that way, I'll push even further."

Zhang Yue and his team went straight to the Gate of Hell's exit and started camping the door.

Adventurers carrying chests must exit through the gate. Blocking the exit ensured every adventurer they intercepted carried loot.

In just minutes, they killed dozens of Infinite Guild members trying to escape, collecting Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, and even Star Glory-tier chests. They also looted over ten pieces of gold equipment worth over 300,000 yuan in total!

Running out of storage space, Zhang Yue messaged his guildmates,"Need treasure chests? Selling cheap!"

Liu Yao: "How many do you have?"

Zhang Yue: "As many as you need. Still farming."

Just then, Zhang Yue killed a few more Infinite members, adding three Silver, one Gold, and one Star Glory chest to their haul.
