Chapter 1249: Chapter 901 New Tricks?
The message from Dusk came a bit suddenly, but Zheng Yichen said he was already used to it. Anyway, after breaking through the Great World once, Dusk would notify him two days in advance of any arrangements.
Having a whole day to prepare was already ample time, and two days was even better. With so much time, he could even burn incense and bathe, and take his family on a trip.
After eating and sleeping well, he would report to Dusk...
However, his child had to work overtime to study over these two days. Zheng Yichen, on the other hand, came to Dusk early and wandered around the Zero Point marketplace.
He planned to see if he could find anything good here. As a result, there were many goods, and because of the number of Dusk mercenaries, some people had to sell their items in more remote corners.
Moreover, there were quite a few natives here, all adapted to Dusk. Hazy City had already become unusual, and anyone with a bit of sense would realize the times had changed.
Zheng Yichen observed that when these natives bought things here, they mostly bartered, and only items of ordinary value could be bought with money.
High-value items were traded within the circles of Dusk mercenaries.
Non-Dusk mercenaries wanting to acquire them would have to offer locally high-value items.
But these things were useless to Zheng Yichen, whether it was armor or weapon enhancement materials, they seemed decent but offered no improvement to him.
Instead, each strengthening would consume a large number of merit points, and this was the same for both Dusk mercenaries and Proxy Agents.
With increased investment in weaponry and equipment, the cost of each enhancement would rise, and compared to game enhancements, the biggest advantage of Dusk was that it wouldn’t fail...
Success rate? There was no such thing. Once merit points were given, success was guaranteed. As for any issues, they could only arise from problems with the materials used for enhancement.
"Can you tell me what type of world this time will be?" After wandering for a while, Zheng Yichen looked around and found a Dusk nun to ask.
This Dusk nun just looked at Zheng Yichen indifferently and then turned her gaze elsewhere. When Tia came over, she said, "Ask her."
"Oh? Since when did you become so distant?" Zheng Yichen was a bit surprised.
Tia didn’t respond to Zheng Yichen’s question but calmly said, "It’s a partly wild world."
"Huh?" Zheng Yichen thought for a moment and asked, "Is it similar to the Wild Ancient territory?"
"No, it’s more like the world of ’Classic of Mountains and Seas.’
"...You really know how to use what’s at hand," Zheng Yichen couldn’t help but twitch his mouth. ’Classic of Mountains and Seas’ was something he had Lilith print after generating it in the Virtual World from his memory.
And there were other novels and such things as well.
To this day, Zheng Yichen hadn’t given up on influencing Dusk through Tia, to change its style to something like the Main God Space mode.
The difference was that here, there was no need for team battles—oh, there might be team battles, as some Dusk mercenaries would betray Dusk, but that would mean completely abandoning Dusk, and what follows would be death.
"Just an example."
"Alright... What you said makes me quite expectant."
"Also, this world is very close to the Great World."
"??" Zheng Yichen’s eyes widened. He never had a good impression of the Great World: "I wonder if I’m too outstanding, and now Dusk can’t afford to pay me, so they’re planning to send me off."
"You’re overthinking it. It’s close to the Great World because it’s been influenced by it."
Zheng Yichen nodded in understanding, so was this another new trick of the Great World?
Hurriedly leaving the Dusk Cathedral, Zheng Yichen arrived at the bartender’s place. Seeing Zheng Yichen arrive, the bartender smiled: "Is it a trade again this time? If you still need the previous items, we’d need some time to prepare."
"No, I came to ask something. If I didn’t take your commission but accidentally got caught in the Great World, would that commission still hold?"
"Of course, it’s valid. As long as you can paralyze the Breakworld Faction’s Descent System, that’s fine." The bartender said with a smile.
A thousand merit points were a lot for an individual, but for a massive Dusk organization, it wasn’t unacceptable. Paralyze the Descent System, and in that time, they could earn more merit points.
That would be enough.
Watching Zheng Yichen leave, the bartender put down his glass and wrote some information on a sheet of paper. There were two Proxy Agents in the Misty City World; although these two Proxy Agents had no interaction, he had seen both.
The other Proxy Agent was initially neck and neck with this one named ’Chang Qing,’ but now the gap between them had become apparent.
This wasn’t a perception of strength; he couldn’t perceive how powerful Zheng Yichen was. But from the dusk color in Zheng Yichen’s eyes, he could judge the extent of Zheng Yichen’s current level.
To put it in more extreme terms, this Proxy Agent seemed to have transplanted the eyes of a Dusk nun.
This kind of Proxy Agent now proactively asked about the previous commission; wasn’t it because Dusk had arranged some task directly related to the Great World for him?
Or tasks that might easily entangle him in the Great World.
For a mission like this, if a Dusk mercenary were to face it, they would generally just abandon it. Courting death doesn’t work this way. No, to be precise, Dusk mercenaries wouldn’t choose such a mission at all.
Dusk mercenaries pick their missions, Proxy Agents are chosen by the missions.
Back at his residence, Zheng Yichen immediately went into seclusion. Even the small white dragon is putting in the effort, so what reason does he have not to strive hard?
A little over a day isn’t much time, but after opening awareness acceleration in the virtual world, it’s enough to rapidly enhance his combat skills.
Zheng Yichen encountered Tanshia Firlo in the awareness acceleration area of the virtual world.
Here, the small white dragon was fiercely gnawing through a massive pile of knowledge, not even noticing Zheng Yichen’s arrival.
Seeing this, Zheng Yichen smiled without disturbing Tanshia Firlo, and instead, found his own place to start cultivating.
The Blood Asura doesn’t need cultivation; months of cultivation aren’t as effective as a moderately intense battle. His main enhancement is the Vajra Body, and after obtaining the blood of the Ancient Venerable, its growth, once almost stagnant, surged as if a new level cap had been unlocked.
The metamorphosed body... is just average; it hasn’t been affected much.
In the last hour before the mission started, Zheng Yichen brought the yawning Tanshia Firlo to the Dusk Cathedral.
All matters at home were settled, and during these two days, Tanshia Firlo rapidly absorbed a vast amount of knowledge and began crafting the Holy Relic of Life in the morning.
Though there hasn’t been any substantial result yet, she claimed that the heavy burden she felt has lessened significantly, and Zheng Yichen listened as if believing her.
"Let’s go." Zheng Yichen found Tia.
As usual, Tia walked ahead, opening the door to the world-crossing room.
Close the door, open the door—
The moment the dark room lit up, Zheng Yichen felt his body become more active.
He stretched a bit, revealing a surprised expression: "Isn’t this world too extreme??"
Here, Zheng Yichen felt an incredibly high level of body activity; correspondingly, his Inner Strength only remained as a faint sensation.
Not to mention the Inner Strength, even the Oath Power and all other special powers were gone.
This is an extreme high-intensity, ultra-low energy level world.
If Alien Phenomenon manifestation wasn’t present, Zheng Yichen would absolutely not be able to use any special power in such a world; he’d have to rely solely on his physical abilities to fight.
In this kind of world, he couldn’t even unleash the Demonic Abyss Seven Kills.
"Boss, my functionality has been restored." After Zheng Yichen stepped out of the room, Lilith’s voice sounded.
Lilith maintained a small range of Alien Phenomenon manifestation in the built-in space to breach the boundary limits.
However, this breakthrough could only match the current Misty City World environment; there was no breakthrough in intensity levels, completely crushed by the world’s environmental strength.
In terms of energy level, it secured a minimum, but that’s enough to allow many of Lilith’s functions to operate normally.
"Let’s first check out other places." Zheng Yichen said as he started observing the surrounding environment.
This wasn’t a cathedral type but a large sacrificial site made of huge stones stacked together.
Outside the Dusk Territory, Zheng Yichen could see some smooth stone platforms with remains of beasts; some only left with bones, others still hung with decaying flesh.
"Feels similar to the Wild Ancient territory, just more advanced than it, right?" After observing the surroundings, Zheng Yichen came to a conclusion.
The difference is, the Wild Ancient territory, although of low energy level and high intensity level, has some tribal civilization, while this place seems more savage.
Might as well consider this a version of the Wild Ancient territory?
At first, Zheng Yichen thought so, and after receiving the phone from Tia, glanced at the offline map on it, feeling a bit perplexed: "This is still a 3D map?"
Before Zheng Yichen could scale the map down to find his target location, Lilith, synchronized with the phone, spoke: "Boss, there’s a big problem with this world, and it might be quite different from the Wild Ancient territory."
A massive projection appeared in front of Zheng Yichen, like watching a movie on the big screen.
After Lilith processed the map, Zheng Yichen saw more comprehensive information.
His mission target point is at the junction of two ’rings.’ As he looked at the junction, Zheng Yichen’s eyebrow slightly twitched: "Why does it look like a scene of two planets crashing into each other?"
When planets collide, it’s mostly a big explosion, but instead of an explosion, Zheng Yichen saw something in a state similar to fusion; this world is indeed an anomaly.
