More than ten years had passed since the previous shocking transformation, and the city had undergone a complete upheaval. 0
 
As the three entered, they could see wide, flat roads bustling with various bizarre creatures serving as mounts, along with numerous Steam Locomotives. 0
 
In the sky, flying insects with wingspans ranging from several meters to over ten meters soared gracefully. 0
 
These flying insects were said to be specially created by the Source Lord, considered the most advanced mode of Transportation. The cost for a single ride was at least several dozen Source Points, allowing travel between Source City and the other five cities in Farn County. 0
 
Only the wealthy or powerful Source Energy Warriors could afford to use them; others preferred to save money by using ground Transportation options. 0
 
Most ground Transportation tools were newly emerged insects that could be purchased with Source Points in various forms. 0
 
Just then, an insect with an oval shell passed by them. 0
 
The insect was three meters long, featuring an oval-shaped shell adorned with round spots. On its back was a seat covered in fur, where a young man sat comfortably. 0
 
It looked somewhat comical but was faster than a horse, its eight legs creating phantoms as it swiftly dashed past the three. 0
 
“That bastard! Running so fast, is he looking for death? Doesn’t he fear violating the Transportation laws set by the Source Lord?” Ma Fei cursed but looked on enviously at the figure disappearing into the distance. 0
 
There was no way around it; such a mount would cost at least thousands of Source Points, far beyond what most adventurers could afford. 0
 
Besides serving as mounts, these insects possessed strength comparable to First-Level Source Energy Warriors. In critical moments when facing enemies, they could also act as helpers. Adventurers with extra funds would definitely buy one! 0
 
“The Transportation laws allow such rapid movement as long as you don’t hit anyone. The center of the continent is meant for these speedy individuals to pass through; walking is not permitted,” said the burly man, Keton, who seemed more open-minded. He gave Ma Fei a light tap on the head. “Once you save enough Source Points, you can buy one too and run like that.” 0
 
“I wish I could…” Ma Fei muttered under his breath. 0
 
No matter how powerful these insect mounts were, they were ultimately external forces. What he truly desired was a Secondary Source Elixir; once he obtained it, his strength would undoubtedly crush these insects. 0
 
Strength was the ultimate truth. Once he gained formidable power, he wouldn’t just be able to roam through Moonlight Forest; even Twilight Forest would be within his reach. He could catch whatever he wanted! 0
 
“The Source Lord is indeed great! More impressive than any emperor; it’s as if he’s a creator who can bring any kind of creature into existence! I have my eye on a mount that looks like a black-and-white bear; it’s so adorable! Once I have enough Source Points, I will definitely buy one!” Tracy said cheerfully. 0
 
 
"Don't be reckless!" Cruton immediately scolded her, turning to look around. "Even though the Empire is facing a crisis, it's still not something we should take lightly!" 0
 
Ma Fei shrugged nonchalantly. "Hey, what's there to be afraid of? I've heard that the northern part of Farn County has been completely overrun, cities have been slaughtered by monsters, and millions have died. Unlike us here, under the great light of the Source Lord, those monsters are behaving themselves and don't dare to riot!" 0
 
"Sigh, this world is changing too fast. I've heard that animals in other places are going mad and attacking humans, resulting in countless deaths—thankfully, we are in the territory of the Source Lord!" Cruton wasn't scolding her anymore; instead, he sighed and gestured across his chest. "Thank you, Source Lord!" 0
 
Now, without needing to step outside, one could know what was happening in the world—a concept that was unimaginable in the past. 0
 
As long as one had a Personal Terminal, they could log into the Magic Web from anywhere and upload various information, including text and images. 0
 
In this situation, some powerful individuals traveled to other counties and uploaded horrifying scenes to the Forum area, allowing everyone in Farn County to be informed. 0
 
From their accounts, creatures in other places—whether birds or rodents—were attacking humans with madness, creating a relentless cycle of violence. 0
 
Moreover, those animals had undergone tremendous changes; terrifying behemoths over ten meters tall, even dozens of meters long, led countless monsters charging against human defenses. 0
 
Looking northward, several counties had become desolate wastelands where no human life could be seen for miles. Cities had turned into ruins, becoming playgrounds for countless plants and animals. 0
 
Villages outside the cities had vanished entirely; all their inhabitants were devoured by monsters. Only the larger cities survived under the protection of powerful individuals from the Empire. 0
 
In just over a decade, millions upon millions of people had perished at the jaws of countless monsters, causing the entire world's population to sharply decline—more devastating than any war—thus it was named the Apocalypse War! 0
 
The entire world seemed to have plunged into an apocalyptic state where humanity was on the brink of destruction. 0
 
Only Farn County remained peaceful, becoming a sanctuary in this chaotic world—a fact that was hard not to admire. 0
 
Although the flora and fauna in Farn County were also undergoing rapid evolution and becoming stronger, strangely enough they did not form beast tides to attack humans like in other regions; only after leaving residential areas did they encounter monster attacks. 0
 
It was evident that the sole reason for this situation was none other than that supreme ruler—the Source Lord! 0
 
Many people in Farn County regarded him as a deity to worship; every time they went out, they would pray for blessings and express gratitude whenever they received good fortune. 0
 
It was precisely because of his existence that they could live safely and continuously strive to grow stronger. 0
 
 
What ordinary people admired the most was that the Source Lord completely disregarded previous hierarchies, treating everyone equally and providing each person with the opportunity to rise. 0
 
As long as you worked hard and dared to strive, you could become stronger! 0
 
From that moment on, becoming an Important Figure was no longer exclusive to noble families; even beggars had the qualification to grow stronger. 0
 
Various paths to strength became clear, even forming the rules of the system, causing society to instantly enter a state of explosive vitality, with countless individuals striving to become stronger. 0
 
Dangerous areas such as Moonlight Forest, Twilight Forest, and Wogul Wasteland were filled with brave souls venturing in, fighting desperately for potions that could change their fates! 0
 
After walking for a while, the three arrived at the entrance of a silver building, where they saw a sign above the door that read—Adventurers' Guild. 0
 
Adventurers, as the name implies, were those who took risks; they explored various dangerous regions or hunted specific monsters based on missions. 0
 
This term had emerged over a decade ago and quickly became familiar to countless individuals eager to grow stronger. 0
 
Once you became an adventurer, you could receive various missions from the guild and earn generous rewards based on your completed tasks. In this regard, it was somewhat similar to mercenaries. 0
 
However, adventurers were much more versatile than mercenaries; their reach extended into many areas—not only hunting but also providing bodyguard services, training, and more. 0
 
The three stepped into the silver building. Having been out for a while, they needed to submit their completed mission to claim their rewards… 0
