At this moment, the ground beneath their feet suddenly trembled! This tremor actually originated from the main body of the building!
This tremor was like a fuse, in a blink of an eye, it triggered a second tremor!
If the first tremor was said to be a gentle probing, then the second tremor was a frenzied explosion!
With this tremor, Sheyan's expression changed drastically. He slapped his foot, his physique instantly soared to 31 points!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The building was originally made of bricks and wood, but under the terrifying impact of the second strike, a 10 metre long, 3 metre wide crevice was formed. Their current location wasn't the top floor, and amidst the turbulence, the furniture and benches started sliding down towards the crevice. Even the ceiling tiles started raining down. Although contestants like them possessed abilities far beyond that of ordinary people, they could only tightly grab onto the fixed objects around them. Following that, a bright light shone into their eyes, as the sun rays unexpectedly shone in.
Sheyan's heart trembled, his expression changing. If this was a contestant's attack! Before this, they didn't hear any explosive sounds, nor did they feel any threat. Such a terrifying strength, it wasn't inferior to the mountain troll!
But very quickly, strange creaking sounds could be heard from below. Following that, an incomparably bewitching gigantic tree drilled out from below. Its branches were frantically twitching like octopus tentacles, smashing the surrounding floor tiles and wood into the air. The roots of the tree were like a human's dried up veins, clinging tightly to the ground! One could even see the roots wriggling like veins, greedily sucking in something!
Sheyan instantly understood, what broke through this building, should be the strength of this demonic tree's germination! In the present world, there was no lack of examples of germination seeds breaking through skulls and rocks. Now that this demonic tree had appeared, its germination strength was naturally no small matter. Although its might was huge, its fatal weakness should be its movement speed. It could only be used as a defence. Enemies could come and go as they wished, as long as a contestant had a medium range attack, they could treat it as a live target.
But at this moment, the contestants started cursing in shock and anger.
"Felix! Why the fuck did you summon the Whomping Willow at this moment? "
"You idiot, the Metals professor is about to arrive, let's see how he will deal with you!"
"… ….."
"Whacking Willow?" The floor beneath Sheyan's feet had already collapsed. He used one hand to hold onto an air conditioner rack and hung in the air. Coincidentally, he had seen an illustration of this plant when he was doing a quest yesterday. He immediately recalled the information about this plant.

At this moment, four black-clothed men suddenly flew down from the sky. Simultaneously, they spoke in a stiff and cold voice.
"The Ministry of Magic is on duty! “
Simultaneously, the nightmare imprint of every Symbiosis sect member transmitted a notification.
"You have entered the inspection area of the Ministry of Magic!"
"How did the Ministry of Magic get involved?"
"How could this be?"
"Where's the Metals professor? “
In an instant, the members of the Symbiosis sect lost their backbone and fell into chaos. At the same time, the building they were hiding in swayed. Finally, the Whacking Willow completely collapsed! Bricks and wood tumbled down, the entire building was reduced to rubble. Dust and debris soared up, spreading over hundreds of square metres.
At this moment, several malevolent looking contestants wielding lethal weapons leapt down from the surrounding buildings. The leader was wielding a two-handed greatsword, which was ablaze with raging flames. On the surface of his body, a faint glow condensed into a translucent armour, slowly revolving around him. This armor was an intermediate support ability of a magician from the Banks Syndicate. It was called [Mind Armor]. It was able to effectively absorb a large portion of long range damage. It was extremely powerful, but the cost of using this ability wasn't small. It was said that there were even higher level abilities at the back.
The one leading the charge was someone Sheyan had seen before, he was the one with 28 points of strength, Venter! Looks like the Banks Syndicate had seized the opportunity of the Symbiosis sect's heavy losses in close combat. They had set up an incomparably treacherous killing trap, intending to wipe out the entire Symbiosis sect!
Currently to Sheyan, he had his innate ability 'Endurance' and 15 points of defence as support. Even if he was buried alive, he might not die. Furthermore, the collapse of the building gave him sufficient buffer time! Thus, he was the first to stabilize. Furthermore, his strong perceptive sensing allowed him to notice the appearance of the Banks Syndicate at the moment the building collapsed.
"Without a doubt, this is a premeditated killing trap!"
"The most crucial character of this killing trap, lies with Felix."
"His status is high enough, hence he was able to grasp the movements of the top two characters of the party – the Metals professor and Fanu!"
"His ability is strong enough, possessing the ability to destroy buildings. He was able to create such a bizarre situation, completely wiping out the long range firepower of the Symbiosis sect!"
"His thoughts are meticulous enough, that is why he was able to conceal himself until now!"
"Of course, there is an even bigger problem. Only 30 or so people entered this world, and the entire Symbiosis sect entered … … where did the extra Banks Syndicate members come from?"
Sheyan's mind flashed with several thoughts, he immediately thought of another point. That was if he was a member of the Banks Syndicate, then what would he do? Of course he would first eliminate the close combat members!
Thinking of this, he who was buried under the rubble had already seen the sunlight shining in from outside. He was preparing to charge out with a punch, but he once again stabilized his body. His breathing slowed down, becoming faintly discernible. Under such a chaotic situation, almost no one was able to detect him.
Miserable shrieks started to resound. Although the collapse of the building was extremely chaotic, but to high agility contestants, it wasn't a problem. Therefore, the members of the Symbiosis sect were currently in an extremely disadvantageous situation.
Firstly, the contestants with high agility were able to move freely. They could rely on their speed and dodging to avoid most of the dangers when the building collapsed. Hence, most of them were long range physical attacks, with only one or two being close range physical attacks.
Next were the close combat members. Their strength was relatively high, thus they were able to protect themselves even if they were buried. They should be attempting to crawl out from the rubble. They should be able to enter the fray in 2 minutes.
The most unlucky ones were the magic type members. They had no strength, agility and physique. Some of them were buried under the rubble and probably couldn't even crawl out with their own strength!
Hence, when Venter brandished his two-handed sword and charged into the dust, he was facing a group of panicking agility contestants who had no cover at all! Under his 28 points of strength suppression, as long as one's strength didn't reach 14 points, they would suffer additional crushing damages!
From within the rubble, Sheyan witnessed an agility contestant named Oka being slashed down by Venter. Although he had already raised his dagger to block, Venter still continued forward. The blazing two-handed sword directly slashed into Oka's shoulder blade. Then with a twist, he slashed horizontally like a gale! That contestant screamed miserably as he was sent flying. When he landed, he was already heavily injured. The people behind rushed forward, raising their swords and leaving behind a charred corpse! Leaving behind a glowing blood red key.
Even with the 40% restriction, that contestant couldn't even last 3 seconds!
When Oka was killed, gunshots resounded! It was a rhythmic burst of gunfire. After the bullets pierced through the air, a faint spiral trajectory could be seen. Obviously, the surviving gunmen of the Symbiosis sect knew that this was a life and death situation, so they used their own ability to snipe.
The bullets accurately landed on Venter's body, but only caused a few ripples on his transparent armour. Venter's eyes were bloodshot, his legs fiercely stomped on the ground, causing the ground beneath his feet to explode. Venter raised his blazing sword high above his head, in a flash he flew up 7-8 metres, and heavily slashed down at the gunman!
But this gunman's strength wasn't ordinary, Sheyan remembered his name was Chyastanov. Facing Venter's sword, he still managed to fire off a burst of gunfire, and then with a skillful roll, he distanced himself by 5-6 metres! This move was extremely familiar to Sheyan, because when Cazider first entered this world, he had repeatedly used this method to escape from Sheyan's attacks. But the difference between the two was that Cazider would throw a grenade after rolling away to obstruct the enemy's pursuit. Whereas Chyastanov had a clear advantage in terms of distance.
The blazing sword landed heavily, on the ground of the ruins, a mournful scorch mark appeared, sending rocks and debris flying everywhere! What was more terrifying was, the blazing flames on the sword actually surged up with a "whoosh" sound. Majestic and blazing, it directly formed a river of flames on the ground, engulfing Chyastanov within! Following that, the two contestants behind Venter charged forward, under a pincer attack, they easily killed Chyastanov! Another key that shone with a blood-red glow appeared! (To be continued.)
