Chapter 3 Departure to the Extraterritorial Battlefield
Chapter 3 Departure to the Extraterritorial Battlefield
Lin Qiyue replied.
"The realm lords must undergo life-and-death trials; this is a tradition of the virtual universe company and the human race for billions of years."
"The Lord of Chaos City spoke slowly."
"Are you preparing to go to a secret cosmic realm, or an extraterrestrial battlefield?"
"This disciple chooses the battlefield beyond the realm."
Lin Qiyue did not hesitate.
The reason for choosing an extraterritorial battlefield is quite simple.
The extraterritorial battlefield is one of the front lines of the long war between the human race and the elite races such as the demon race, the insect race, and the mechanical race. It has strict rules, and the highest level of entry is limited to immortal gods.
Super beings of the cosmic level and above are not allowed to enter.
This undoubtedly draws a relatively safe bottom line for world lord-level trainees.
At least, it won't suddenly appear and have some kind of cosmic venerable being or even the master of the universe casually wipe you out.
But the secret realms of the universe are different.
The universe is full of strange and wonderful places, with varying degrees of danger.
Some extremely dangerous secret realms are so dangerous that even cosmic masters risk perishing if they venture into them.
As a realm lord, if he were to accidentally enter such a perilous place, his chances of survival would be slim.
Although the battlefield outside the domain is equally brutal and fraught with danger at every turn, at least it is within the framework of the rules, making it more suitable for his current stage.
The Lord of Chaos City did not interfere with his choice, but simply nodded slightly.
"The extraterritorial battlefield is a battlefield outside the borders of humanity, where the four most powerful races and many other races slaughter each other. There is no mercy there, only survival and destruction."
"Remember, only by living can there be a future. If faced with unforeseen circumstances and a desperate situation... it is better to self-destruct and annihilate your body than to be enslaved by your soul!"
"Once you are enslaved by your soul, your consciousness sinks, and your true spirit is obscured, you become a complete puppet of the enemy, with no chance of ever rising again. That is an end more complete than death. At that time, even I will not be able to save you."
"Your talent is exceptional, and you have the potential to become a pillar of our human race in the future. However, the more talented you are, the more dazzling you will be on the battlefield beyond our borders, and the more likely you are to attract targets. You must be careful and cautious, conceal your brilliance, and avoid being blindly arrogant."
"Your disciple will remember your teachings!"
Lin Qiyue solemnly replied, engraving each word into her heart.
Even if it means self-destruction, I will not be enslaved!
This is the bottom line.
"Um."
The Lord of Chaos City said no more and waved his hand.
"Go. The virtual universe network has granted you access to the extraterritorial battlefield. We look forward to your return after your trials."
"Thank you, Teacher!"
Lin Qiyue bowed deeply again, then turned and strode away from the city lord's mansion.
As he stepped out of the mansion, he glanced back at the ancient city, his eyes no longer filled with confusion, but with determination and a murderous intent.
I've arrived on the battlefield beyond our borders.
……
Leaving the initial universe, a dark red spaceship lies across the void.
This is his spaceship, an F9-class vessel, equipped with the highest-level probes.
Since she was going to the battlefield outside the region, Lin Qiyue naturally made some preparations.
……
Star Bird, one of the eight major logistics bases within human territory, is also a fixed transport point for the cosmic army. A large number of cosmic troops are continuously transported from here to various battlefields outside the region, and its importance is self-evident.
Lin Qiyue's dark red F-class spaceship landed smoothly on the spaceship parking platform following the guidance signal.
"laugh--"
The hatch opened, and a figure clad in dark red, ancient armor with a single horn flew out, casually putting away the spaceship.
"Good heavens, an F-class spaceship! Judging by the material, it seems to be Flame Star Crystal Mother?"
Beside the platform, a staff member wearing silver standard combat armor and with a semi-transparent head resembling a jellyfish flashed a hint of surprise in his eyes, then quickly stepped forward, a smile plastered on his face.
"Hello, I'm a staff member here. Are you here to enter the extraterritorial battlefield?"
He felt a chill run down his spine. The world lord before him not only rode in an expensive vehicle, but judging from the mark on his forehead, he was clearly a powerful figure recognized by the laws. Moreover, judging from the style of his armor and the unicorn-like feature... he seemed to be a member of the Flame God Clan.
Lin Qiyue has now undergone a slight disguise.
After all, he is currently ranked second on the Zerg assassination leaderboard.
Lin Qiyue glanced at him and nodded slightly: "Yes."
"If you're traveling alone, please follow this path to the meeting point."
The staff pointed to a wide passageway in the distance, made of a special transparent material.
"The plaza is at the end of the passage; just wait there."
Thank you.
Lin Qiyue said no more, and with a movement, stepped into the passage.
With each step, space naturally warps and shortens. It seems like a leisurely stroll, but the speed is astonishing. In a short while, it has already traversed a passage more than 3,000 kilometers long.
Suddenly, a beautiful square with a diameter of over a hundred kilometers opened up before them, dotted with alloy benches, where tens of thousands of people were gathered.
However, the square is large enough that even with tens of thousands of people spread out, it still appears quite sparse.
"Hello, please rest here for a while."
A female receptionist with a fluffy tail and a voluptuous figure approached and smiled.
"We need to gather a certain number of people before we can send them all at once, otherwise the logistical costs would be too high. You guys, the earliest batch, have been waiting here for almost ten days."
Lin Qiyue nodded to indicate that she understood, then casually chose a spot to sit down and closed her eyes to rest.
Most of the cosmic warriors in the square are at the Domain Lord level, a few are at the World Lord level, and the cosmic level is the least common.
Those who dare to venture into the battlefield from afar as lone wolves are mostly quite confident in themselves.
"Hey friend, all alone?"
Not long after, a slightly rough voice rang out.
Lin Qiyue opened her eyes and saw two world lords who looked very similar and had thick manes on their faces walking over.
Both were at the peak of the Realm Lord level, and both had a mark between their brows that indicated their recognition by the laws.
"Um."
Lin Qiyue responded.
"It wasn't easy, getting all the way to the Wandering Bird Star all by yourself."
The slightly stout world lord laughed and sat down opposite Lin Qiyue with his companion. He took out fine wine and three cups, filling them with the power of the world.
"My name is Caron, and this is my brother, Barton. It took us fifteen years to get here. How long did it take you, brother?"
"almost."
Lin Qiyue picked up her wine glass but didn't elaborate.
He couldn't very well say that he arrived efficiently by traveling on a virtual universe company's spaceship and using methods like teleportation from a divine kingdom.
"My name is Yan."
Lin Qiyue gave a simple code name.
In foreign battlefields, real names are rarely used unless there is special trust.
"Flame? Good codename!"
Caron laughed and didn't delve into it, instead turning his gaze towards the entrance to the square.
"Another Realm Lord has arrived... We're almost at a hundred Realm Lords now, aren't we? Almost there, almost there! My battle axe is itching to drink blood!"
The group chatted casually, with Lin Qiyue mostly listening and occasionally responding.
After waiting for about another day, the number of realm lords gathered in the square finally reached one hundred.
"Cosmic-level, assemble here!"
"Lords, this way!"
"All Realm Lord level experts, gather here!"
