Soon, Chen Jiang found himself near the top of the player blood sacrifice points ranking.
He spotted an insect race player:
[Insect Race Player: Dudu]
[Blood Sacrifice Points: 1,982]
A name he'd never heard before. For an insect race player to achieve such a score was remarkable.
In the previous days' race kill rankings, insect race players had rarely ranked high.
The reason was simple: insect race players lacked strong individual attack power. Their strength lay in numbers, using quantity to overcome quality.
For an insect race player to kill 1,982 members of other races in just over two hours meant they were either fighting desperately or had nearly exhausted their insect fluids.
What drove such desperate efforts?
The answer was obvious: they were aiming for the two-star item, the heart of the insect hive.
Without hesitation, Chen Jiang spent all 6,000 of his blood sacrifice points to purchase both hearts of the insect hive.
The next moment, the Altar Shop's stock of the heart of the insect hive item showed zero remaining.
"Hmm."
Chen Jiang stared at the two basketball-sized, fleshy orbs in his hands, nodding in satisfaction. "Worth it."
Clearly, these things were completely useless to him.
But they would be immensely useful to the insect race.
The enemy's misfortune was his greatest joy.
If he had let the insect race acquire these, they might have unleashed an insect swarm spawned by insect race players in the future, causing him considerable trouble.
So, he decided to intercept them now.
If he could annoy the insect race, it was worth it.
After all, in the Ten Thousand Races Arena, only one race could survive as the victorious race.
That meant every race other than the human race was an alien race.
If he didn't want to die, then all the alien race players had to die.
What Chen Jiang didn't know was that...
The moment the heart of the insect hive's stock reached zero!
Above a jungle on this continent, an insect race player paused, his movements freezing as he glanced at the two lines of gray text beside the heart of the insect hive item:
[Human player Chen Jiang has exchanged for two two-star items: Heart of the Insect Hive x2.]
[The item stock is now empty.]
The insect race player's seven or eight compound eyes widened in disbelief, then twisted into a ferocious expression as it let out a piercing shriek.
At the same moment, a voice echoed in the ears of all players:
[Global Speaker!]
[Insect race player Dudu: "Chen Jiang, I'm going to kill you!!!"]
"Hmm."
Chen Jiang paused, startled by the sudden voice in his ear, then a satisfied grin spread across his face. So this thing really is important to the insect race.
Good.
Seeing the insect race player's fury only amplified his inner satisfaction.
The insect race's language was complex, sounding like piercing shrieks, but when used with the global speaker, it automatically translated into the corresponding language for each race player.
Of course, the insect race's language couldn't convey much information.
Thus, the translation came out as a childishly aggressive threat.
Chen Jiang then searched the Altar Shop again.
Finding no more race-specific items, he shook his head with a hint of regret.
He had plenty of blood sacrifice points.
He could have completely cleared out all the race-specific items.
Weakening others is equivalent to strengthening oneself.
Chen Jiang continued browsing the Altar Shop, this time setting his sights on a three-star item.
The exchange price for three-star items started at a minimum of 50,000 blood sacrifice points.
By the end of this event, only a handful of players would likely be able to afford a three-star item.
More players were exerting themselves today than usual.
Previously, competing for the race kill rankings primarily benefited the entire race, with limited individual rewards. This discouraged many capable players from fully participating.
But today was different.
Today, putting in extra effort directly translated into tangible personal gains.
As a result, many players began pushing themselves to the limit.
Chen Jiang noticed that there were actually quite a few strong players who had previously remained inconspicuous.
The three-star item was a global speaker.
[Item Name]: Global Speaker 10% Discount Bundle
[Item Tier]: Three-star item
[Item Effect]: Broadcast your voice simultaneously to all race players, limited to 200 characters!
[Item Details]: Contains 300 global speakers.
[Item Description]: A somewhat situational item that can be surprisingly useful at times.
[Exchange Price]: 30,000 blood sacrifice points.
[sItem Stock]: 1/1.
Global speakers are typically two-star items, but this is the Global Speaker 10% Discount Bundle, containing 300 speakers, which elevates it to a three-star item.
This makes perfect sense.
So, the original price was 300,000 blood sacrifice points, but the 10% discount bundle reduced it to 30,000?
TL/N: The math ain't mathing.
Chen Jiang stared at the Global Speaker 10% Discount Bundle's item panel with a peculiar expression. Without hesitation, he swiftly retrieved his Achievement Compendium and began searching. He vaguely recalled seeing an achievement with trigger conditions related to global speakers.
Soon enough—
On the sixth page of the Achievement Compendium, he found the achievement linked to global speakers:
[Achievement Name]: All Eyes on Me
[Trigger Conditions]: Use 50 global speakers in a single day, use 100 global speakers in a single day, use 300 global speakers in a single day.
[Completion Status]: All three tiers remain unlit.
Just as he suspected.
The moment Chen Jiang saw the achievement, he grinned with satisfaction. Spending 30,000 blood sacrifice points to fully complete a Tier 3 achievement was well worth it.
Completing achievements not only granted rewards, but fully completing all Tier 3 achievements also awarded an additional battle-ruined fragment.
By any calculation, spending those 30,000 blood sacrifice points was a wise investment.
The Achievement Compendium had indeed been a worthwhile purchase. Without it, who would have guessed that using 50 global speakers in a single day would trigger an achievement?
Let alone whether players even possessed that many global speakers, even if they did, who would be so talkative as to use 50 global speakers in a single day without knowing it would trigger an achievement?
Once Chen Jiang confirmed this, he didn't hesitate. He immediately purchased the Global Speaker 10% Discount Bundle from the shop for 30,000 blood sacrifice points.
Soon, a line of small, gray text flashed across the information stream panel next to the Global Speaker 10% Discount Bundle item:
[Human player Chen Jiang has exchanged for the three-star item: Global Speaker 10% Discount Bundle.]
[Item stock is now empty.]
