Animals are becoming Players!
This news struck like a boulder dropped into a calm lake, sending massive shockwaves and deep anxiety through the circles of those in the know.
With no solution yet found for the global disasters, the internal struggle for survival resources among humans was already growing more intense.
And now, they learned that even animals could become "competitors" wielding Extraordinary Power.
This drastically increased the pressure on everyone’s shoulders, making them feel even more lost about the future.
At this moment, Seraphina Sullivan was in her [Scavenger’s Farm] Space. Before her lay a dish that looked, smelled, and tasted exquisite, freshly made using her [Magic Cuisine] Talent.
As she enjoyed her meal, she calmly analyzed the limitations of this powerful Talent.
’This Talent is strong, no doubt—practically Rule Level,’
She scooped up a spoonful of soup, feeling the Energy replenish her body.
’But the consumption is just staggering. If I want to quickly turn an enemy into a meal in the middle of a fight, with my current spiritual power and stamina reserves, I’d probably be completely drained after just a few uses. It can only be a trump card for critical moments, not a standard method of attack.’
As she was enjoying her food and planning how to improve her Abilities in the future, the familiar, cold system notification suddenly echoed in the depths of her mind once more:
[Ding! Seven-day preparation period has ended.]
[Ding! The Disaster Game will now begin.]
[Ding! Player, please select one of the following instances to enter.]
[Aberrant Radiation] or [Giant’s Doom]
The two instance options, shimmering with different lusters and representing unknown dangers, appeared clearly in Seraphina Sullivan’s consciousness.
’[Aberrant Radiation]... If it weren’t for Yana Yates’s forceful intervention last time, this is the instance I would have entered.’
Seraphina Sullivan looked at the option, understanding dawning on her.
’Since I missed it last time, I’ll make up for it now.’
Without much hesitation, Seraphina Sullivan chose the [Aberrant Radiation] instance, simultaneously using her Spirit Link to confirm that Sean Chandler had made the same choice.
The moment she confirmed her selection, a familiar sense of weightlessness and spatial displacement washed over her.
Seraphina Sullivan’s figure vanished from the RV in an instant.
When her vision focused again and she could see her surroundings clearly, she found herself in an unfamiliar place.
It was a spacious warehouse that looked long abandoned, filled with dust and cobwebs.
She quickly scanned her surroundings, her heart sinking slightly.
Sean Chandler, who had also chosen the [Aberrant Radiation] instance, was nowhere to be seen!
Instead, five unfamiliar Players appeared beside her.
’Separated right from the start?’ Seraphina Sullivan realized immediately.
However, she wasn’t too worried.
As long as the instance didn’t suppress her strength like the Death Arena did last time, with her current trump cards and Abilities, an ordinary threat wasn’t enough to make her panic.
Of course, now that she had become a Beloved of the God of Cuisine, the Rule-Level suppression from other Divine Favored was also useless against her.
"Hey! You, the woman over there!" A rather coarse male voice interrupted Seraphina Sullivan’s observations.
She looked up to see a small team of five Players—three men and two women—looking at her.
One of them, a tall and burly man with a scar on his face, was pointing at her rudely.
