Chapter 384 Trial Road Bloodline Rewards
A normal genetically evolved being would be beaten into shit in the same level trial. What a point of beating it.
As he thought to himself, his hands moved quickly. Relying on his terrifying strength and defense, his punches and kicks were extremely powerful, and he rushed forward recklessly. Each blow carried the power to destroy the world.
Gray-black fog surged all around, and only four muffled "bang bang bang" sounds were heard.
These strange life forms were like fragile porcelain hit by a sledgehammer, shattered into pieces by the violent impact.
The crisp sound of broken bones was particularly clear in the fog. Their bodies flew out in a twisted posture, and the sound of torn muscles was terrifying.
Black blood gushed out like a bursting dam, and black flowers bloomed in the mist. They were instantly cooled by the mist and turned into black mist, filling the air.
As a result, eight more appeared.
"Not over yet?" Li Ming frowned.
In the mist, the mechanical body became more and more unbelievable. He could see that this guy's method could last for a very long time and had completely crushed the general level.
"Fuck, it's finally stopping." Li Ming shook his hands and looked at the black fog around him speechlessly. This time it finally calmed down.
After beating eight, sixteen more appeared.
The final number was sixteen, and he had to defeat sixteen of those things to pass the level. The difficulty was much greater than he had imagined.
A virtual screen appeared before his eyes—[Passed the Lower Warlord Trial, Evaluation—Top Level, Reward: Titan Bloodline Concentration Purified to 5%, a Warlord-level weapon.]
Titan blood purification?
Li Ming was slightly stunned, "Tsk..." He suddenly remembered that the Blood-Falling One said that only the Terraxians could open the Holy Castle.
The text on the screen quickly disappeared, but there was nothing around him and he didn't feel any change.
Do I need to return to reality to redeem this reward? What form will it take?
Something is wrong...my body, Li Ming felt something was wrong, he looked at his hands in surprise.
The physical strength consumed by the blessing just now was miraculously restored.
Just fill up the status directly?
Li Ming muttered in his heart, and saw a new line of text appear on the virtual screen in front of him -
[Do you want to proceed with the mid-level warrior level trial? ]
The median should correspond to a development progress of 60%.
He definitely can't be my opponent, Li Ming was excited, his status was fully replenished, shouldn't he just start brushing?
Of course choose to agree.
Soon, two more life forms emerged from the gray fog.
Li Ming was eager to try, and soon passed the mid-level general trial with a completely crushing attitude.
[Passed the Intermediate Warlord Trial, Rating: Top Level, Reward: Titan Bloodline Concentration Purified to 10%, a Warlord-level weapon.]
[Do you want to proceed with the upper-level warrior level trial? ]
Huh? Li Ming couldn't help but laugh. Is this the joy of completing low-level side quests at a high level?
"Keep going!" he said proudly, "I'm going to beat a hundred of them!"
Soon, [Upper Warlord-level trial passed, evaluation - top level, reward: Titan blood concentration purified to 15%, a Warlord-level weapon.]
[Do you want to conduct the Peak General Level Trial? ]
Is there a peak? It corresponds to 90%-100% development progress?
Li Ming secretly sighed that the path of evolution is really the same, and everything can be matched.
"Come!"
[Passed the Peak General Trial, Rating: Top Level, Reward: Titan Bloodline Concentration Purified to 20%, a General-level Weapon.]
"How...did he do that?"
The mechanical body outside the gray mist was puzzled. It was obviously only the strength of a lower-level general, so how could it burst out with the power of a lord?
[The General-level trial is over. Do you want to proceed to the lower-level Lord-level trial? ]
Lord level? That's S level, Li Ming pondered. His current energy level is 70A. In comprehensive combat mode, his maximum burst can reach nearly 80S.
Theoretically, it should be able to compete with S-level life forms that have reached 60% development progress, but these strange life forms have extremely strong combat capabilities.
Moreover, the difficulty of the assessment is incredibly high, and there are often beatings.
"Can I call a halt in the middle?" Li Ming asked. He only had three chances. If it wasn't safe, he would wait until he had the upper hand.
"You can call a halt after you have survived three minutes of battle or eliminated the enemies at certain stages," the on-screen text replied.
"That's not bad..." Li Ming nodded, his eyes moving slightly: "Then let's see..."
After confirming it, Li Ming felt that the time and space around him seemed to stagnate for a moment, and then began to flow, and a chilling chill came from all directions.
Two familiar yet unfamiliar figures appeared. After reaching S-level, these life forms also underwent great changes. Their bodies became more sturdy, the skin on the surface of their bodies had a more metallic texture, and the patterns became more complex.
Bang!
Li Ming's eyes bulged out, and he could hardly react before he felt a huge force hitting his chest, the force was like a supernova that suddenly exploded.
The whole person flew backwards, like a fallen leaf caught in a strong wind, and completely lost control of his body. He only felt the scene in front of him quickly blurring, and the sound of whistling wind was in his ears, as if the whole world was spinning.
But this space is very strange. Any aftermath of an attack that is separated from the living organism itself will quickly dissipate. The power that can almost shatter half a planet in the outside world cannot cause any ripples here.
Crackling, gray-black lightning flashed, like countless violent electric snakes twisting wildly. The other life form was not idle either. Powerful energy gathered and condensed into a lightning spear in his hand.
The opponent's body was surrounded by jumping arcs of electricity, making a sharp "sizzling" sound. He held the lightning spear tightly, the veins on his arms bulged, and the powerful energy fluctuations caused slight distortions in the surrounding space.
Li Ming's eyelids twitched, and he reacted immediately. He quickly switched the defense blessing to speed blessing, using offense instead of defense.
The distance was shortened in an instant, and due to the high-speed friction, part of the skin had been carbonized.
Then he quickly switched to defense, and with great force, he punched forward, bang!
It can directly penetrate the opponent's body and hit the person, and its lethality is still terrifying.
Afterwards, the battle became stalemate. Li Ming seldom engaged in such close combat in the past, and this enhanced state had many disadvantages.
The 24x speed boost brought by [Vortex Video] is not enough at this level.
Although the burst energy level can reach 80S, it is like a lame person.
In the outside world, it can possess a tank guard, so this shortcoming can be ignored and defense can be turned into speed blessing.
But now things are a bit troublesome. As the number of enemies increases, four of them are already difficult for Li Ming to deal with, and it took a long battle to defeat eight of them.
Sixteen had already made him use his methods as quickly as possible. Various blessings were switched back and forth. [Hunting Shadows in the Wind] allowed him to cross back and forth. The marks superimposed by [Shattered Earth] kept collapsing, the roars continued, and all his methods were used.
"Bang!" There was a loud noise, like thunder exploding in the ears. The air was instantly compressed by the punch, forming a visible shock wave that spread wildly in all directions.
The head of the creature that was hit instantly caved in, and debris flew everywhere.
Similarly, half of Li Ming's body was torn apart. [Super Charged Attack] directly burst out with 250 times the power, but his body could not withstand it at all and was directly torn apart.
Fortunately, the enemy died much faster than him.
The inexplicable power quickly repaired his body. Li Ming was panting, but he did not feel tired physically, but mentally it was different.
[Passed the lower lord level trial, evaluation - top level, reward: Titan blood concentration purified to 25%, a lord-level weapon.]
[Do you want to conduct the mid-level lord level trial? ]
Li Ming's eyes flashed, but he couldn't help himself and chose to confirm.
Of course, this time he immediately chose to materialize the Tank Guard and the Four Mechanical Heavenly Kings, ready to show his peak combat power.
However, before the enemy came out, the entire space fell into a state of stagnation.
[Warning: If a participant is found to be attempting to cheat, this trial will be cancelled. This is a warning.]
Can’t we use external objects?
Li Ming paused slightly, felt a toothache, and disarmed himself.
He actually guessed this, so even though he was almost beaten to death in the first trial just now, it was useless. He had to pass the trial first.
This attempt verified his guess.
"No chance..." Li Ming sighed. Internal control does not work on the body, so this place cannot be detected, but the tank guards and the four mechanical kings are real objects, so there is nothing he can do. He can only fight hand-to-hand.
However, what he didn't know was that beyond the gray mist, the mechanical facial features showed an indescribable look of astonishment.
It's hard to imagine what this expression would look like on a mechanical face.
"Where did those things come from!?" He could no longer contain himself and realized that this guy was too unusual, so he walked out uncontrollably.
"How on earth did you do that!?"
Li Ming looked up in surprise and saw a humanoid mechanical body with a frightened and angry expression walking out of the gray mist.
"You..." Li Ming hesitated, but heard the other party's rapid-fire questions: "Who are you? How did you get in? Where did those mechanical bodies come from?"
Li Ming looked him up and down, his eyes narrowed. "You... are the supervisor here? What's your name?"
The machine paused and said in a deep voice, "Just call me Overseer."
It is highly anthropomorphic and may have evolved into mechanical life. Li Ming estimated in his heart, and he was not too surprised. It was also expected that there would be similar supervisors in such a place.
It’s just that the way the other party appears is a little different.
"Trialist No. 1..."
"My name is...Qinglong." Li Ming interrupted the other party.
The supervisor was obviously not used to it. He was full of energy at first, exhausted at second, and weak at third. At this moment, his voice had become too flat.
"Qinglong, I don't know how you got in, but you clearly don't meet the requirements, and you're even using cheating methods."
"I now suspect that you also used cheating methods when you faced the War General-level trial just now!"
"Oh?" Many thoughts flashed through Li Ming's mind. This guy had been watching me and had noticed that something was wrong with me a long time ago, but he didn't stop me, or he couldn't stop me?
"So?" he asked.
The Overseer paused, then said with a hint of irritation, "You disrupted the trial procedure, you..."
Li Ming shook his head. "Your role should be more like a bystander, or answering questions and solving problems. This place didn't even expel me, so why are you reacting so strongly?"
The Inspector was choked and speechless. This was exactly what he found most difficult to understand. How could the Holy Castle not detect it?
"It just so happens that I have a lot of questions that need to be answered." Li Ming asked in a deep voice, without any hesitation: "Will the rewards I get from the trial be returned to reality with me?"
The Overseer felt a rare sense of suffocation, his processor whirring furiously. However, due to the built-in core program, he was forced to answer in a cold voice:
"Yes, the rewards you receive will be delivered directly to you in the form of hyperdimensional information state replacement."
Li Ming nodded. "What about the purification of Titan blood? What will be the impact?"
The Overseer's mechanical pupils spun, but before he could speak, he heard the other party add, "Describe to me in detail all the impacts, whether good or bad."
While these mechanical bodies cannot violate their own core programming, they can find bugs on their own and give reserved answers, much like a butler, only responding to more specific and detailed requests.
The Overseer felt increasingly frustrated and said in a deep voice, "Purifying Titan blood will increase the lifespan, physical strength, and compatibility of the essence of lifeforms..."
"Source quality compatibility?" Li Ming asked specifically.
"This is a special substance. I can't tell you the details now. I can only tell you that this is related to whether you can become a Dominant Titan." The Supervisor said in a deep voice.
Li Ming pondered, source quality... He has a lot of resources with source quality in their names.
Genetic essence...evolutionary essence...is it a coincidence in the name?
"Please continue," he said thoughtfully.
The Overseer said in a cold voice, "But for life forms like you, it will suppress your potential for development."
Li Ming was originally quite cheerful, but when he heard the last sentence, his face suddenly darkened.
Suppressing development potential is not what he wants to see.
Moreover, the suppression will definitely affect the root development potential, which will have a huge impact.
"How much suppression is there?" Li Ming frowned, thinking that he might have to make a choice.
At the same time, he realized that the Supervisor might have some ability to obtain interstellar information.
The Overseer felt relieved when he saw the other party frowning. "According to current interstellar standards, it's impossible to exceed level 45."
"How much?" Li Ming was slightly stunned. "Level 45?"
In other words, I can barely reach the standard of an x-level life form. My current root development potential seems to be... level ten?
Level 45...Level 10...
Li Ming pondered for a moment, his face looking strange, as if it would not have any effect on him?
"So, this is not a good thing for you." The Supervisor reminded.
Li Ming looked him up and down, his expression softening. "Your Excellency the Overseer, you don't need to be so concerned."
The Supervisor looked puzzled.
Li Ming patiently coaxed, "Since I'm here, it means I definitely meet the requirements of the Holy Castle. I just have some tricks up my sleeve. If we want to revive the Terrax civilization, isn't this perfect?"
"Reviving Terrax civilization?" The Overseer's facial expressions were complex, and his tone softened as he shook his head and said, "The Holy Castle's purpose is not to revive Terrax civilization."
He examined the trial-taker, his emotions calming down, and said calmly, "You are right. Since the Holy Castle believes that you meet the requirements, I just need to watch."
