Chapter 313 Suit
Wei Huan and his companions had informed us in advance that they were coming back, so they stopped when they passed by the base because Mu Dehao and Fang William were waiting there.
As soon as they met, Fang William raised his finger to Wei Huan and said, "I'm convinced by you. You are the right person to be the commander-in-chief of this pioneering army."
Mu Dehao also laughed: "I was just talking to Commander Fang. This trip to another world would be a huge risk for anyone, but it just so happened that you were the ones who got caught up in it. When you come back, our human race will have another blessed land and cave."
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong looked at each other and smiled.
The two exchanged a few pleasantries, not delving into the Monster World. The conversation quickly shifted to Wei Huan's primary objective. "...So, you're saying that one of the World Tree's roots is emitting a rich netherworld power, causing that root to grow much thicker than the others. Are you worried that the World Tree might mutate?"
Mu Dehao nodded. "Indeed, the World Tree is of vital importance to humanity, especially now that it's connected to the demon beast world. Loss is unacceptable, which is why I called you back. If there really is a problem, we can consider countermeasures and take precautions in advance."
"good."
Just as we were talking about this, a chariot broke through the sea surface at a speed close to the speed of light and flew up.
The white initial vehicle, however, drove with the momentum of a missile, breaking the sound barrier along the way, and its momentum was extremely terrifying.
It was Wei Huan's chariot.
The AI butler, who had been in dementia for almost a month, immediately became normal after returning to this world. After connecting with the main AI of the tank, the tank drove up.
When Wei Huan walked out of the room, his chariot just fell from the sky and slowly stopped at the spot closest to him in the parking lot.
Wei Huan said, "Minister Mu, Commander Fang, I'll go check it out right away."
Minister Mu is Mu Dehao's position in the Reclamation Army, the Minister of Infrastructure Department, which is different from the Minister of Chariot Internal Affairs who is served by his cousin Mu in Wei Huan's car.
Commander Fang is Fang William, who serves as the commander of the sixth-level world garrison.
Mu Dehao and Fang William did not keep Wei Huan, but got on Wei Huan's chariot and wanted to go with him.
Wei Huan came back to resolve this matter, and everyone felt that it would be better to resolve it as soon as possible to avoid any more complications.
Wei Huan was walking in front, and Xu Qingqiang had already come to greet him with his men. This time he didn't smoke, but just glanced at Wei Huan and smiled.
Wei Huan came in front of him and stopped.
Xu Qingqiang raised his eyebrows and stepped forward to give Wei Huan a hug: "Boss!"
Wei Huan nodded and smiled, looking at the crew behind Xu Qingqiang, who were looking at him excitedly. His heart warmed. It hadn't even been a month since we'd been apart, and only ten days in this world, but he still missed everyone terribly.
"Boss, you didn't ask me to join you on this land reclamation mission. I was really upset when I found out you were killing everyone over there. What monster king? What black dragon, blue dragon, nine-tailed fox? You killed them for your own pleasure, but we are jealous. These are legendary monsters! When you killed them, didn't you think of leaving two for your brothers to kill?"
Xu Qingqiang complained and felt unfair that he missed this "feast".
Mu Zhong said, "That world is probably equivalent to level 7.5. If we go to the next world, we will see the monsters you mentioned."
"Tsk." Xu Qingqiang shook his head. "That's not the case. Monsters controlled by the Challenge World are like puppets. Killing them all looks exactly the same, and I'm already tired of it. I heard that the battle between the boss and the monster tribe was so fierce that the sky was dark and the earth was dark. Both sides deployed millions of troops, and there were all kinds of tactics interspersed. It was a king-level battle. I didn't even participate in this bloody scene? All that monster meat was wasted."
Mu Zhong was stunned for a moment before reacting. He then smiled and said, "Brother Qiang, we brought back quite a bit of monster meat. I'll have Orange Juice make some and distribute it to everyone. You'll definitely enjoy your meal."
But Xu Qingqiang was not satisfied: "Dead meat is just like that."
Mu Zhong smiled and said, "After I finish my work this time, I will drive the chariot over there. There are many opportunities there, and you, Brother Qiang, will surely be able to take advantage of every one of them."
Xu Qingqiang finally smiled: "That's right, I'm tired of this world. It's easy to push those below Platinum, but I can't beat those above Diamond. Go to that world and level up, and I'll beat those little Diamonds to death!"
While chatting and laughing, they had already entered the tank. Along the way, there were crew members who had heard the news and rushed over, greeting them all the way.
Wei Huan looked at the familiar scenery and people with a bright smile in his eyes. Mu Zhong even made eye contact with everyone and he could call out everyone's name.
Amidst such a welcoming atmosphere, Mu Zhong asked Xu Qingqiang to take Fang William and Mu Dehao to find a place to rest, while he and Wei Huan returned to the room to tidy up.
As the saying goes, a nest of gold or silver is not as good as your own doghouse. Even if Thor's chariot is opened to them without defense, it is still not as comfortable as their own chariot and their own room.
However, the main reason for the two to leave was not to rest, but to check the equipment.
In the Monster World, equipment information cannot be updated. Now that they are finally back, the two of them have some free time and can't wait to look at the equipment they have improved.
When he opened it, Mu Zhong was surprised: "Ah! The name has turned green."
Wei Huan said: "Yes, it's a suit."
Mu Zhong recalled the classification of equipment: "Bronze equipment, black iron equipment, silver equipment, gold equipment, platinum equipment, diamond equipment, pseudo-god equipment and god equipment, what exactly are these?"
Wei Huan emphasized: "It's a suit."
Mu Zhong looked at himself, all alone with his staff inlaid with the Stone of Life, and approached Wei Huan and said, "Let me see the attributes of your equipment."
Wei Huan raised his hand and shared the equipment attributes with him.
Diamond-level spiritual power helmet, diamond-level spiritual power ring, diamond-level spiritual power belt, diamond-level spiritual power earrings.
Now they have all been renamed as: Real Diamond Nether Helmet, Real Diamond Nether Ring, Real Diamond Nether Belt, and Real Diamond Nether Earrings.
The names of these devices turned green on the display panel, and the background also flashed green.
Of course, these are just special effects of the system. Apart from being fancy and beautiful, they have no special meaning.
However, on the entire equipment panel, Mu Zhong did see his target at a glance. Then he raised his hand, clicked on the equipment, and saw the set attributes that Wei Huan had always emphasized.
[Magic Phoenix Set 2-piece Set: Dark Domination 30 points]
[Magic Phoenix Set 3-piece set: Increase Netherworld recovery by 50%]
[Magic Phoenix Set 4-piece set: Increase Netherworld recovery by 50%]
The attributes of the suit appeared after the Nether Stone was inlaid. The original attributes of the diamond-level equipment did not change. Generally speaking, this set of equipment added an additional 30 points of dark control power and 100% Nether recovery speed, which was similar to what Wei Huan himself felt and told him.
"That's not right. There are clearly five stones, so how come the set consists of four pieces?" Mu Zhong's focus was a little off for a moment.
Wei Huan tilted his head, allowing him to see the earrings on his ears.
Mu Zhong looked at the earrings and asked, "Don't they look good? They're so handsome, low-key, luxurious and have connotations."
Of course, Wei Huan didn't mean that, and neither did Mu Zhong, so after he finished speaking, Mu Zhong smiled and looked at Wei Huan's earrings with admiration.
The biggest change in Wei Huan's equipment is this pair of earrings.
The original equipment was called "Diamond-Level Spiritual Power Earrings". When worn on the ears, it was like wearing a pair of diamonds the size of a little fingernail, but Wei Huan also disliked it because it was too big, and usually chose to hide this pair of exaggerated earrings.
Wei Huan took the bird ghost, now known as the Demon Phoenix. After Wei Huan absorbed the Demon Phoenix's immense netherworld power, he transformed it into five netherworld stones, one large and four small, and gave them to Mu Zhong. Mu Zhong inlaid the largest one into his crown, the second largest one into his belt, and the smallest one into a ring, leaving him with a pair of oval netherworld stones of varying sizes.
Mu Zhong also thought about it for a long time and decided to put it on Wei Huan's ear.
The reason for doing this is that Wei Huan's earrings have the worst attributes among all the equipment, and they happen to be a pair.
He used his piloting abilities to make a pair of earrings out of the pair of Nether Stones, based on the original simple ear studs.
The earrings wrapped around Wei Huan's ears, with many black bone spurs growing upward and outward, on which were inlaid the pair of Netherworld Stones.
If Wei Huan took off his virtual equipment, revealing his pitch-black equipment, a one-meter-long sickle on his back, and a pair of bone-spur earrings, and stood on Dianma's back, he would look like a real devil, almost like two different species from humans.
At this moment, Wei Huan was free from the virtual world and stood in front of Mu Zhong. His cold face had a faint expression and he had an air of looking down on the world.
Mu Zhong's heart was beating a little fast. Seeing his lover transform from an ordinary human into a non-human, gradually becoming tall and majestic like the lord of the underworld, he felt more and more obsessed.
However, Wei Huan cannot remain indifferent in front of Mu Zhong for too long. Love is mutual, and so is tenderness. If you treat me well, I will only treat you better.
Wei Huan was stared at by Mu Zhong, so he put on a smile that broke the ice. He pinched Mu Zhong's chin and said, "Well, continue."
"Continue what?" Mu Zhong almost forgot his original purpose for a moment, his eyes fixed on Wei Huan, and then said, "Your attributes are now so strong that they are almost invincible."
The Heart of Steel has the highest authority. Even if Wei Huan chooses to block his own attributes now, Mu Zhong can easily see it as long as he wants to.
In front of me was Wei Huan’s smiling face and his detailed data.

Number of summons: 480,000+ (self-summoned: 200,000, and Dianma summoned: 280,000)
"My Nether Power is over 40,000, and the number of summons is about to reach 500,000. He truly is an army of one man." Mu Zhong stared blankly at the data for a moment before looking away with a look of emotion. He said, "So I don't have any set attributes. It's just a real weapon. Apart from adding 5 points of natural power, there are no other gains."
Wei Huan raised his hand and tapped the legion badge on his chest. A spot of light moved, and the enchanting and intimidating equipment was blocked out. He was only wearing a simple and neat virtual uniform, which made him look heroic and dignified.
Wei Huan likes this outfit. No normal man would think he looks good in such fancy clothes, not to mention that he is the commander of the legion, so he cannot wear such strange clothes.
Only Mu Zhong likes to look at this set of clothes, and it is only shown when the two of them are alone. However, generally speaking, it will not stay on Wei Huan for more than three minutes, especially the exaggerated earrings. He was really worried that they would prick Mu Zhong's face.
Mu Zhong responded, "The Nether Stones are so big. If I were to make them into earrings for you, I couldn't make them into two balls, right? Bear ears? Or a bun? That's ridiculous. You're the commander of the legion!"
When Mu Zhong saw Wei Huan hiding his clothes, he looked away with regret.
Then he said, "In short, although it's not difficult to obtain real weapons in that world, it takes some effort to get the set bonus like you did. At least make sure the energy stones come from the same place so that they can entangle and stimulate more energy."
Immediately afterwards, Mu Zhong took out the totem he was wearing, and Wei Huan looked at it curiously.
The two people's data glasses showed it.
[Gold Level Netherworld Totem]
[During the totem's duration, +400 Netherworld Power/5 seconds]
Mu Zhong was surprised: "There are actually levels?"
He immediately took out several other totems.
【Black Iron Level Bloodsucking Totem】
[During the totem's duration, +200 bloodsucking/5 seconds]
【Silver Level Holy Light Totem】
[During the totem's duration, +300 Holy Light Healing/5 seconds]
This comparison becomes very obvious.
Challenge World divides totems into different levels according to the same equipment: 200 is Iron level, 300 is Silver level, and 400 is Gold level.
By analogy, 100 points is naturally bronze level, while platinum is 500, diamond is 600, pseudo-god is 700, and god level is 800.
Of course, the totem came from Mu Zhong. He only needed to take a look to know how the system made the rating.
It has to do with the material, but also with the effort he puts into it and his understanding of the sculptor.
Furthermore, the Netherworld Totem he had meticulously crafted, incorporating nearly every element, was only a gold-grade one. This wasn't just a material issue; his class level was also quite low.
Mu Zhong told Wei Huan his guess and said, "Don't be fooled by the 200 or 300 numbers. In reality, the actual execution won't yield such exact numbers. It will probably be somewhere around this range. However, since everyone has full faith in the system, we should be able to differentiate them this way in the future."
Wei Huan said, "You can call Xia Yu over and find out more."
Mu Zhong laughed: "No matter how much I understand, it's still limited. I won't be like you. If I really want to achieve a divine artifact totem, there are two possibilities: the netherworld and nature."
Wei Huan looked at him.
Mu Zhong said what Wei Huan wanted to hear: "I understand you even better than I understand myself."
Wei Huan smiled: "If you have any questions, ask me."
Mu nodded: "Of course, when have I ever been polite to you?"
The two smiled at each other, then chatted for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, they went downstairs again.
They called Fang William and Mu Dehao to have a meal of monster meat cooked with orange juice, and finally waited for all the important crew members to come back.
Captain Xue, Jacques, Kritov and others who were sent out to carry out the mission rushed back as soon as they received the news.
Wei Huan's chariot flew down along the World Tree, and along the way, chariots flew into the chariot like young swallows returning to their nests.
By the time they finished their meal, there were more people in the chariot, and those who should have returned had returned.
Captain Xue came towards them with Captain Wang Ming, Liu Xiaotian and others. They still had the smell of gunpowder from bloody battles on their bodies, and the battle marks left on their armor were their medals of military honor.
Jacques, a hundred meters behind, led Mu Zirui, the twins, and the others, also neatly dressed, walking towards them. They were clean and elegant, with upright figures, like the white feathers on the bow and arrow, elegant yet concealing murderous intent.
In addition, there were Kritov, Cousin Mu and others who had followed Wei Huan since early in the morning. They followed Wei Huan, who was so imposing that even if he was just standing casually, he was as majestic as a mountain, making people look up at him. Their backs were straight, and the corners of their smiling mouths could not hide the pride.
The three parties gathered together.
Captain Xue saluted: "Commander Wei, close combat team reports!"
Jacques saluted: "Remote team reporting in!"
Wei Huan looked at everyone in front of him and nodded: "You all will go to the meeting with me first, and the rest of you can rest."
“Yes!”
…
The water in the deep sea world has now been absorbed by the World Tree as nutrients. With nearly one-third of the water missing, a large space has been exposed on the sea surface.
The human race's main city was built on the sea, on the thickest branch of the World Tree, and it has now begun to take shape.
Over the past period of time, two groups of people have come and gone, and the total human population in this world has reached about 220,000.
Not all of them are combat personnel; there are also many who are engaged in logistics and scientific research. So far, all those who have come here are military units from various countries, and no members of the public have yet entered.
However, it is said that the third batch will include a small number of people from the society. Although these people are not in the legion, they are members of corporate groups that have close ties with the legion and the country. They work for the legion, and the legion will also promise them benefits.
Letting them come in early is to make economic arrangements. Sooner or later, this place will be open to civilian convoys and ordinary lone wolves.
Wei Huan's chariot had passed the city without entering. Not far down, the chariot plunged into the sea.
The feelings above and below the water are obviously different. Moreover, this sixth-level world is not for humans to enjoy, so it is full of elements that humans don't like.
Dark, cold, and depressing.
However, after turning on the level 8 headlights, all these negative factors were expelled. It was like diving in a shallow tropical sea. The water was so clear that you could see far away. The originally faint light was like the midday sun shining through the water, illuminating a long distance.
Continue walking down along the World Tree. After only a hundred miles, you will see lights on the branches.
The chariot slowed down, and saw that the light was flickering, sometimes long and sometimes short, which was using the language of light to inform them that the road ahead was safe.
"Safety"
"Safety"
As the chariots passed by the lights, they could see more than 10 chariots parked here, neatly parked on the branches near the trunk of the World Tree, with all the lights on to illuminate their way.
You can vaguely see soldiers saluting behind the windshield in the tank.
After that, there is a checkpoint every 300 kilometers.
There is a base every 3,000 kilometers.
It was not until we reached a depth of 20,000 miles that we found that there were no more outposts.
This place is deep in the seabed, and high-level sea beasts will frequently appear. Ordinary chariots cannot guard this place, so they are mainly used for patrolling.
After human tanks arrived in the sixth-level world, they were all upgraded with radars by Iron Heart, which could see far away. Any dangerous movements could be discovered about half an hour in advance.
After passing the last human outpost, Wei Huan's chariot continued to dive. At this point, even the level 8 headlights could hardly illuminate the clear and tranquil scene.
This has nothing to do with the color of the sea water, but rather the huge number of sea beasts that also choose to live on the World Tree. There are the ferocious and huge shark monsters hiding behind the leaves, the octopus monsters entangled on the branches, and some of the surviving scammers who have escaped the net. They will also entangle in the inadvertent corners of the World Tree, luring any passing tribe to hunt them.
"The garrison will come down to carry out the cleanup every day. In addition, the main battle team will be organized to come down every month to carry out the general cleanup, especially the survivors. We must never let them grow again." Fang William said.
Clearing the roots of the World Tree is the job of the garrison. The pioneering army led by Wei Huan is mainly responsible for opening treasure chests and exploring ruins.
The deep sea area was not small. Wei Huan opened the protective shield and summoned the ghost crows to move forward at full speed. It still took most of the day to get from the last human outpost to the jelly-like substance on the seabed.
During this period, Wei Huan and his colleagues were in a meeting, discussing the issue of the divine corpse and the issue of the Monster World. As they chatted, notifications about obtaining supplies kept popping up on the screen.
Until a platinum treasure chest was opened, the butler asked Wei Huan as usual whether he wanted to solve it before moving on.
Wei Huan said, "Let's solve it together when we get there."
Fang William heard this and said, "I know the rewards over there are great, but now even platinum-level monsters can be killed in groups. It seems that the rewards are really great."
Wei Huan nodded. The endless Netherworld Stones, the qualitatively transformed tomb, and four pseudo-god-level undead were indeed a huge harvest.
Xu Qingqiang said, "There's a diamond-level treasure chest about seven days' journey away, and a platinum-level relic nine days' journey away. Are you going to open them when you come back this time?"
Mu Zhong asked, "Not on the side?"
Xu Qingqiang nodded: "Not on the same side, in two completely opposite directions."
Mu Zhong looked at Wei Huan.
Wei Huan shook his head: "Let's go to the Monster World first and spend half a year to find our way. After that, whether we find anything or not, we'll come back and open the treasure chest."
"OK."
Wei Huan calmed down for a moment and said, "After that, I plan to go to the seventh-level world."
"You are not..." Mu Zhong hesitated to speak.
Wei Huan said, "There are still two worlds away from the ninth level world. We can't stay in the sixth level world forever. The materials in the higher level world must be better." Then, Wei Huan paused and said, "We must go to the Dark Beast World again as soon as possible."
