Currently, Wang Zhi's team had 14,000 Survival Points remaining, having obtained a total of 16,200 points. They were still short about 34,000 points to reach Level Four Team status; a total value of 50,000 Survival Points was required to advance to a Level Four Team.
Wang Zhi approached the data console, handed his Magnetic Card to the staff member, and requested the upgrade for his team.
From this moment on, the Sunset Glow team officially became a Level Three Team, making them the third Level Three Team within the Dawn Tower!
"Guess how many Survival Points we reaped?" Wang Zhi asked the three others, trying hard to suppress his excitement.
"Damn, you guys are boring. We just earned 13,000 Survival Points, and now we are a Level Three Team!"
Seeing that no one responded, Wang Zhi had to carry the conversation himself. If Fatty were here, he would definitely have asked, "How much?"
"13,000 points?! Could there be a mistake?"
Old He seemed somewhat incredulous.
"No, Zhao Yan is a big shot after all; it's normal for him to have some illicit gains."
Meanwhile, Ying was staring at Wang Zhi with a mischievous look, as if she had already figured out how to spend the money next.
"Hey, Sister Ying, don't look at me like that; it scares me."
"Tch, like I'd eat you?" Ying shot Wang Zhi an eye-roll.
As the four spoke, they prepared to head back to move their belongings from the second floor. According to Ling Lingyao, unlocking more information was possible upon reaching the third floor, which made Wang Zhi somewhat expectant.
When Wang Zhi and the other three arrived on the third floor with their things, the first impression he got was of independence and luxury!
Although the houses here couldn't compare to the general's residences on the fourth floor, the homes on the third floor were already considered small villas, generally divided into two levels, with three rooms upstairs and downstairs, plus a bathroom and living room.
There were a total of 50 villas on the third floor, with over 20 still vacant. Third-level teams occupied only 3 of them; the remaining 20-plus were residences for personnel at the management levels of the Dawn Tower. Since the population on the third floor was small, there were no guards currently stationed. The large training hall outside was only available for the current three teams to use, and the training equipment selection was more extensive and comprehensive than on the second floor!
The dining hall had not yet opened due to the small number of people on the third floor. Meals still had to be taken on the second floor, or they could order takeout via the Ling Lingyao system and have it delivered to their residence by the person in charge of the second-floor restaurant.
At this moment, Wang Zhi and the other three were touring the third floor, familiarizing themselves with the surroundings.
Looking into the training area, only five or six people were training in total, making the place look exceptionally deserted.
Moreover, he discovered that the uppermost floor of this Dawn Tower had the largest area, and the lower the floor, the smaller the area. While the difference between the first and second floors might not be obvious, the third floor was almost a full circle smaller compared to the first.
The Fifth Floor was the true core of the Dawn Tower, the level where the Tower Master resided. According to Jie Xi, there were no specific requirements to enter the Fifth Floor; only the Tower Master's personal authorization or invitation allowed access.
Just as the four passed the training area, a man who was training noticed them.
"Hey, finally a team has come down! If you hadn't come down, we would have gone crazy staring at that group all day long." The man approached them to strike up a conversation.
"Hello, we are the Sunset Glow team. I am Captain Wang Zhi," Wang Zhi introduced himself to the other party.
"We've heard a little... heard a little, haha. I'm Zhang Ming, from Former Dynasty. See that really built guy over there? That's our captain, Duan Qingtian." Zhang Ming enthusiastically chatted with Wang Zhi and the others.
"Oh right, what did you say about that group just now?"
Wang Zhi naturally knew that group was the second Level Three Team, Eternal Doomsday.
As for what Zhang Ming meant by almost going crazy facing that group, he didn't understand it at all and was very curious about who those people were.
"You mean them? They are acting strangely all day like a bunch of madmen, but they look like normal people on the surface. I truly don't know what the Tower Master was thinking, letting people like that in."
"Zhang Ming! Stop being lazy instead of training, get back to training immediately."
Zhang Ming was speaking when he was suddenly called away to training by Captain Duan Qingtian in the distance.
Normal madmen on the surface?
Wang Zhi pondered this internally, glancing toward the group of madmen Zhang Ming had mentioned.
They were two masked figures; judging by their build, both were female. They were sparring with daggers against each other. However, within the Dawn Tower, Wang Zhi had rarely seen anyone wear a mask, except for the Tower Master.
Why were these people wearing masks? Could it just be for show?
"Sister Ying, look at those two," Wang Zhi asked Su Muying.
Su Muying stared at the pair for a moment: "Mhm, they have some skill."
"Mhm... let's go. We should quickly put our things down; Fatty is waiting for us to bring food." Wang Zhi said.
A short while later, the four returned to the patient room in the medical ward. Fatty had woken up and was staring blankly at the ceiling. Wang Zhi pushed the door open and placed the food on a nearby table.
"Fatty, how's the injury?" Wang Zhi asked after finding a place to sit.
"The doctor sister was beautiful, her technique was very professional, and she was patient in treating my wound. It was truly a good hospitalization experience," Fatty remarked contentedly.
"Eat something. Once you feel better, go home and rest. Staying here costs quite a few Survival Points. When we return, I promise to arrange the best Bulletproof Vest for each of you," Wang Zhi offered Fatty grand promises.
"Oh right, we're a Level Three team now. We've already moved up to the third floor," Wang Zhi continued speaking.
"Damn! You really did it, Captain Wang, a Level Three team already? Looks like my stay here wasn't in vain, haha," Fatty exclaimed excitedly.
"It wasn't in vain. When we get out, I'll pick a good weapon for you as compensation and a reward. And Old He, don't just rely on that one military knife; wait for us to buy you another one," Wang Zhi generously laid out the plans.
Their funds were currently very ample. He needed to equip his team properly—with weapons and armor. This recent incident had thoroughly impressed upon him the importance of gear.
Good armor and weapons could sometimes truly save one's life. As long as one was alive, that was value; that was victory. This, too, was the meaning behind the two words: Survival Points survival.
