Chapter 139: Chapter 108: You are the Best in Quality Among These Newcomers_1
“Received.”
Confirmation that Senior Li Xiao had received the message.
Jiang Chen put away his personal terminal, clenched his right fist, and touched the Abyss Rune.
This time, he did not summon any mecha and directly activated the energy of the Abyss Rune.
[The Abyss Descent is about to begin]
[10,9,8…]
Jiang Chen’s gaze swept over the text, looking towards Bai Ying not far away.
“Bai Ying, I’m setting off.”
Even as a mecha pilot, Bai Ying felt a trace of daze.
Last time, during the promotion trial, the lord was just an ordinary SSS-class genius who couldn’t afford the daily contribution of fifty thousand.
How much time has passed since then…
The lord had already become the only hope of Planet Blue Star, even the Symbol of the Alliance postponed their own trial for the lord.
At this moment, the lord was even preparing to start the second promotion trial.
After the momentary daze, Bai Ying felt even more reverence, slightly bowing.
“Wishing you boundless martial fortune, my lord.”
As soon as Bai Ying’s voice fell.
Time suddenly froze.
The feeling of weightlessness came again, and Jiang Chen seemed to fall into the sky, into an endless abyss.
Perhaps it was because he had become the person of hope, unlocking more permissions.
This time, Jiang Chen could sense more things.
In his field of vision, the dazzling stars gradually dimmed, leaving only a few points of light in the vast expanse of space.
Like sparks in the darkness, faintly glowing.
He could feel that Planet Blue Star was one of those sparks, connected to him by an extremely fine thread, pulling at him, preventing him from falling into the deepest part of the abyss.
However, the thread was stretching, and he was ultimately falling towards the darkness.
Until he crossed a certain limit, new points of light emerged in the darkness, and he fell towards one of those points.
Until he crashed onto a new planet.
[Welcome to the Abyss]
[Current Location: Earth Cataclysm]
[Level: 2]
[Difficulty: Hope]
[Task One: Within ten days, eliminate the subterranean alien creatures, and resolve the Abyss Calamity.]
[Description: In New Calendar Year 977, as technology leaps forward, with virtual networks, rapid transportation, deadly weapons, a variety of novelties emerge one after another.
At the same time, traditional combat gunners and super ability gene warriors also begin to shine brightly.
In this flourishing era, people are unaware that ancient subterranean creatures are beginning to awaken.
They will trigger the Earth Cataclysm and tell the ignorant world who really rules this planet.]
[Friendly reminder: In the Abyss Descent Trial, one must complete the task to leave.]
Jiang Chen stood atop a five-story building, which looked somewhat old as if it had seen many years.
Yet not far away, a building over twenty stories high stood out prominently, shining with neon lights on its surface.
His gaze swept over the street below where several uniquely designed cars were driving on the road.
Combining the information given by the Abyss Rune.
Jiang Chen quickly clarified the current world’s situation.
“A near-modern technological backdrop similar to Planet Blue Star, mixed with elements of traditional combat and the supernatural ability system?”
The scenarios in the abyss are varied.
Not just technology and magic, steam and transcendent…
Even ancient tribal civilizations reminiscent of a savage era are also represented.
But, the “advancement” or “primitiveness” of a civilization has no direct correlation with the strength of power in the corresponding world.
Even a technological civilization may have climbed the wrong technology tree and be riddled with defects, resulting in a weaker civilization in combat.
Tribal civilizations might harbor powerful tribes, wielding transcendent powers and hunting colossal mountain beasts akin to ancient myths within them.
The world in front of him, the [Earth Cataclysm], just proves this point.
Although it has a near-modern background similar to Planet Blue Star, it may not have developed cutting-edge destructive weapons like nuclear arms.
Instead, it has gone down a divergent path, focusing on traditional combat gunners and super ability warriors as its flourishes.
In the end, it’s just a world situated at “Abyss Level 2” and cannot be that strong.
At this moment.
Jiang Chen, considering the background of the world, thought about the advice given by Senior Yano—
Senior Yano had said that the promotion trials for the person of hope would be quite different and that past experience couldn’t be taken as a reference.
Naturally, Jiang Chen wouldn’t be stubborn. Before he left, he specifically inquired about relevant information.
“According to Senior Yano’s words…”
“The promotion trial for the person of hope is to eliminate the source of calamity and resolve the Abyss Calamity within ten days.”
“Thereby achieving the goal of sheltering civilization.”
“However, this does not mean that the world will be completely peaceful within those ten days.”
“Just like when Planet Blue Star encountered the [Alien Demon Invasion] twenty years ago, alien demons had already appeared on Blue Star and began rampaging everywhere on the very first day Senior Yano arrived.”
“Moreover, during this process, the Abyss Rune had already begun to appear on Blue Star, and mecha pilots were emerging!”
“It was just that the countries of Blue Star at the time did not understand what this meant.”
“They simply connected the mecha pilots with the abyssal creatures based on superficial factors, thinking that the Abyss Rune brought the calamity…”
“Not knowing that Senior Yano had already resolved the source of the calamity within the ten-day limit.”
“So, how should I act?”
Jiang Chen stroked his chin.
Firstly, the shorter the time used, the better.
The sooner the abyssal creatures are dealt with, the less damage the calamity will cause.
And also, it leaves more time to explore the planet.
Secondly, to resolve all the abyssal creatures encountered.
As well as not neglect the disasters they have caused.
In doing so, one can greatly enhance the evaluation.
All these aspects boil down to one key issue—
