Chapter 385 Kill Her
She grabbed it and ran, not leaving a single thing behind.
Everyone knew those rich resource zones were like gold mines, but digging everything out took forever.
For example, mineral veins. Even with tons of space and a whole fleet of machines, it would take decades-maybe even a hundred years-to empty them.
But this tournament only lasted two months. No one had time for that.
If anyone really tried to stay and mine, Joanna would just take them out on her way past.
Right now, fewer people were still left in the Decennial Tournament.
Things got worse because Joanna hadn’t brought any dungeons this time. A lot of Space Alliance pros just hid and focused on staying alive. The teams that tried building and clearing dungeons had it even worse.
Only then did they realize how cruel the tournament truly was.
The moment a dungeon went up, other races rushed in to destroy it.
Dungeons were tough, and the rewards weren’t great.
Plenty of their own people died.
It turned into pure slaughter, killing without gaining much of anything.
Little by little, both human professionals and natives lost most of their points.
Joanna was the only one whose score kept.rising.

She also finally entered the Decennial Leaderboard.
Her rank was 52,179th.
Meanwhile, the human race climbed back to 10,128th.
That caught the attention of all the major races again.
Humans weren’t the only ones tracking data. Other races had analysts and even seers who could glimpse parts of the future.

“Heh. The weaker races don’t understand. This tournament is a trap set by the cosmic overlords.
“One goal is to loot the corpses of fallen gods. Another is to control rising prodigies and stop them from becoming too powerful.

As multiple races closed in, Joanna could no longer gather resources.
All she could do was run.
In the last 20 days, her ranking kept dropping, and Helen overtook her on the human leaderboard.
Even worse, Joanna’s personal rank fell out of the top 100,000.
Now there were only ten hours left.
The tournament was almost over.
At this point, gaining more resources and raising ranks was nearly impossible.
The human race sat at 10,823rd.

They couldn’t move any higher.
Inside a Godfall Land large enough for Sage-tier beings, Helen and Nigel were gasping for breath.
Their spatial gear was stuffed full of high-tier resources. They had already absorbed nearly everything they could.
Even Hastor, with his devouring power, refused to take more.
Their points were maxed out p>
“It’s so close-just barely missing the top 10,000,” Helen said, annoyed.
“There’s nothing else we can do… We only realized how hard this was once we got here. We it everything we got,” Nigel replied weakly. He had never looked so worn out. His transmog outfit was torn apart in battle. Now he wore cracked and battered armor.
He didn’t even bother casting a simple cleansing spell.
He was completely drained.
He looked at Joanna, who ranked second among humans.
“You really trained a great student. Maybe in ten years, she’ll carry huge responsibilities p>
“Definitely. She’s already stronger than me,” Helen said with a smile. “In ten years, I might be learning from her.
“Let’s leave early so we don’t get surrounded at the end p>
“Yeah p>
With ten hours left, they planned to exit the Godfall Land and return to their god’s territory. That was the safest way to protect what they’d collected.
Many races had already withdrawn ahead of time.
