The next day, morning.
Today is the day to go to the abyss, and Xia Zhi got up from bed early.
The journey to the abyss is unpredictable, and after helping Su Qiu evolve yesterday, everyone went back to their respective homes.
Jiang Yuxuan also took an afternoon off. Not only did they get their marriage certificate, they also took the little girl out to play for the whole afternoon.
Originally, Xia Zhi didn't want to get a marriage certificate because no one knew what kind of accidents might happen in the abyss. Jiang Yuxuan might become a widow after going out.
But he couldn't persuade Jiang Yuxuan, so he had no choice but to agree.
Early in the morning, the Jiang family came to the villa to see them off.
In addition to them, Ke Yan, Xia Feixue and Xing Nan also appeared here, and even An Yinmeng, who had not been seen for a long time.
Unlike him, these people are not of high rank, and they all have connections behind them, so naturally they don't need to run into the dangerous abyss.
"This is like sending me to be beheaded, but it's just a trip to the abyss."
Xia Zhi looked at everyone and teased.
Although he also wanted to stay, what he needed most was strength.
As long as you have the ability, you can sit back and enjoy life anytime.
"With your crow's mouth, can't you say something auspicious?"
Jiang Yuxuan rolled her eyes at Xia Zhi and said unhappily.
In response, Xia Zhi could only give Jiang Yuxuan a big hug, which made everyone envious.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Xia Zhi left the villa and headed to the location set by the authorities.
Because there are too many people who have registered, in order to avoid confusion, family members are not allowed to go together, otherwise they will be punished for disturbing public order.
…
Flying towards the north of Dongyuan City, there were many professionals along the way, most of them were in groups, talking and laughing all the way.
But behind this smile is an indescribable loneliness.
If you can live a peaceful life, who would want to go to the battlefield to fight, let alone the most dangerous world war.
Even though there were many people going there, probably less than half of them could actually come back alive.
After all, war is cruel, and they cannot afford to face failure.
This is just an appetizer at best. If the improvement speed is not fast enough, when the gods really come, they will face a situation of being attacked from both sides.
…
Not long after, Xia Zhi followed the coordinates on his phone and arrived at an area surrounded by a huge steel wall.
Yin Wuque told him that this was the military base near Dongyuan City.
Now it has been renovated and can be used as a teleportation entrance.
In front of the huge black steel gate, there are dozens of checkpoints. In addition to the registration staff, there are also many armed soldiers in uniform to maintain order.
Xia Zhi followed the crowd and after completing the registration, he came to the inside of the wall.
What comes into view are three huge portals that are ten meters high, and there are soldiers guarding in front of each portal.
In Xia Zhi's perception, there were several professionals above level seven mixed in with the soldiers, obviously to prevent anyone from destroying the teleportation array here.
Suddenly, Xia Zhi felt an extremely strong aura approaching.
"Yin Wuque?"
Follow the source of the breath.
A man with gray hair appeared in sight, wearing armor and a cloak with the official totem of Yan Country printed on it.
Although he looked to be over 80 years old, he walked with great vigor and an inexplicable murderous aura surrounded him, making it obvious at a glance that he was a battle-hardened man.
Seeing that it was not Yin Wuque, Xia Zhi thought of what Jiang Yuxuan had told him, about the ninth-level professional who was used to protect the little girl.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be this person.
After all, Dongyuan City is not very big, it is just a medium-sized city, and the number of strong people in it is limited.
The highest level Xia Zhi had ever seen was Jiang Fu’s elder brother Jiang Hao, an eighth-level professional.
The old man in military uniform walked up to the podium and began his speech.
"Hello, my name is Guan Qi."
"As for war, I think it's something no one wants to happen, because war is always cruel. But sometimes it won't happen just because we don't want it to happen. I hope..."
Listening to Guan Qi's speech, most of the young professionals were excited.
Some older people, however, couldn't bear to attack these young professionals.
The situation in the abyss is unstable now, and these vanguard troops are actually cannon fodder, used to resist the counterattack of the abyss.
While war brings opportunities, it also often brings death.
After this time, only those who survive can move to a higher level.
What followed was just a lot of empty promises, which made Xia Zhi secretly shake his head.
For ordinary people, working hard all their lives is nothing more than for strength, power and resources.
But for most people, even surviving is a luxury, let alone other things.
Looking at these professionals in the crowd, those with even a little bit of connections or background will not participate in this battle at all.
Because the beginning of the battle is undoubtedly the most brutal, and it basically costs lives.
In other words, the number and quality of the human race on Blue Star are good, otherwise this battle would not be a registration, but a forced execution.
Only after the battlefield stabilizes will it be time for those with connections to go to the battlefield and make meritorious contributions.
By then, no matter how great your achievements are, they will probably not be as good as other people's empty talk.
Whether in the previous life or in this world, it is the world of vested interests. To put it bluntly, ordinary people are just workers.
If he didn't urgently need to improve his strength, he might just rely on his connections to reap the benefits like everyone else.
After all, even if he didn't rely on his own connections, he could probably get a lot of benefits later just by relying on the reputation of the little girl and his sister.
Fortunately, this is a world where strength is respected, and danger and opportunity coexist.
As long as you are strong enough, you can still turn the tide and get to the top.
…
After more than half an hour, just when Xia Zhi was about to fall asleep, the speech finally ended.
It became much simpler afterwards. Everyone lined up to enter the portal and began the first transfer.
Mixed in the crowd, Xia Zhi also saw several familiar faces, including Wei Qing and Hua Shang.
He could understand Wei Qing, as his family background was just slightly better than his predecessor's. However, Hua Shang was a complete relative of a family with connections and had excellent connections in Dongyuan City.
Logically speaking, shouldn't Hua Shang be working in the government like An Yinmeng at this time?
After thinking for a while, Xia Zhi still didn't go up to say hello.
After all, he has no connections in the abyss, and he is most likely acting alone, so it is naturally impossible for him to take care of them.
I'll just wait and see if fate allows. If I meet him, I'll help him. If I don't meet him, I won't go out of my way to look for him.
Soon it was Xia Zhi's turn to teleport.
He was not unfamiliar with the teleportation array because he had used it many times.
As his feet stepped into the teleportation array, the scene in front of him changed. When Xia Zhi came to his senses, he found himself in an extremely huge steel hall.
