Chapter 3077
【Transmission complete, you have returned to Reincarnation Paradise.】
【You are about to enter a new world. Entry time: 42 minutes and 27 seconds later.】
Su Xiao looked up at the prompt. Just before returning to Reincarnation Paradise, he received a prompt in the real world regarding the new world. The prompt was: "The world selection method for this time is constant."
What this prompt specifically refers to is confusing. Su Xiao's first thought was that he was about to enter a world related to Law-Breakers, but as soon as this thought appeared, he dismissed it. How could there be such a good thing?
He would believe it if he were transmitted to the Dead City, but as for entering a world related to Law-Breakers without paying a price, he absolutely did not believe it. Intermittent bad luck made Su Xiao wary of all the good things that fell from the sky. The past events show that his wariness is correct.
The information about the new world is currently unknown. Under these circumstances, Su Xiao is not prepared to use the ф-mark key exchanged from White Cow.
With nothing to do while waiting, Su Xiao came to the Honor Store and checked the items inside. The refresh cycle has not arrived, and the items inside have not changed.
He glanced at the Overlord equipment 【Blood-Bathed Mad Demon】 at the very bottom. The price is still 570 Diamond Honor Medals. This thing should not be discounted.
One exchange has been discounted, which is 【Eberias's White Dragon Girl】. This exchange has been reduced from 130 Diamond Honor Medals to 110 Soul Coins.
Interestingly, initially, the price of this exchange reward was 240 Diamond Honor Medals. After one refresh, this exchange did not disappear, it just dropped in price to 130 Diamond Honor Medals.
Now it has dropped to 110 Diamond Honor Medals. Su Xiao suspects that this thing might drop in price again. As long as it is lower than 100 Diamond Honor Medals, he will take it. As for whether it refreshed or not, he doesn't care; he is not urgent about this thing.
After exchanging for 【Eberias's White Dragon Girl】, one cannot become a Dragon Knight, one just goes to meet Eberias's White Dragon Girl and obtains 【Oath Emblem·White Dragon】.
Forty-plus minutes passed quickly, and the transmission prompt appeared.
Bang!
Su Xiao's vision went black, and the familiar 'heavy blow to the back of the head' appeared. When his consciousness recovered, he found himself in a humanoid mold, or rather, this was a heavy suit of armor, powered by a mixture of electricity and steam.
Inside this suit of armor nearly three meters tall, it was filled with insulating pure water, soaking Su Xiao inside. He wore a mask on his face, and his arms, chest, waist, and legs were all shackled by metal rings inside the armor. Behind this armor were several thick cables and metal soft conduits.
This armor was not for combat, but for imprisonment. Inside the armor, Su Xiao, wearing a mask, narrowed his eyes. He looked around through the small glass window in front. His field of vision was very limited. This might be one of the prices for entering the world wearing the eight-star title 【Sky-Plundering Shocking Waves】, as it is easy to start in jail.
Su Xiao vaguely saw another suit of armor beside him. He could only see the upper body of this armor. Bubu Wang, also wearing an oxygen mask, was shaking its dog head inside.
The location where Su Xiao was was a room built entirely of metal. The walls, floor, and ceiling were all painted white.
"Mr. Vice Legion Commander, have you turned over a new leaf?"
A woman's voice came from a hidden speaker in the corner of the wall. Su Xiao turned his gaze. He was wearing a mask now, with a layer of pure water outside, and the outermost layer was the armor wrapping. No one could hear him if he spoke.
"May I ask, have you turned over a new leaf?"
The unknown woman asked again. Judging from the other party's attitude, Su Xiao only needed to say one word, and he would be released, even if this identity of his had committed shocking acts not long ago.
"..."
Su Xiao did not yet know the current situation. Fortunately, the world introduction appeared.
【Entering World: Alliance Star.】
World Difficulty: Lv. 42–Lv. 79
Location: Southern Alliance·Central Region·Gaman City.
World Source: 0%.
World Introduction: We hide in the night, in awe of mystery.
【Kingdom Era·Year 117: Disputes between the King and the lords never ceased. Strange objects were abused in wars. The 'Athos Family', as the wealthiest family at the time, was courted by all parties. They funded all sides, profiting from the sale of strange objects through wars between the King and the lords. This led to a cliff-like decline in the population of the continent. When the population was at its lowest, there were less than two million civilians left, with males accounting for less than one-fifth.】
【Kingdom Era·Year 295: The war was quelled. Under the promotion of the 'Athos Family', three Kings, five Grand Dukes, and twelve lords held a ceasefire meeting and signed the 'No Further Occupation' treaty. In this multi-party truce, the Grand Dukes and Kings were not the protagonists; the 'Athos Family' was. It was they who facilitated all this. The specific reasons are unknown, but from then on, the 'Athos Family' no longer sold strange objects, but instead collected strange objects from all over the world in a near-crazy manner.】
【Kingdom Era·Year 373: At the beginning of this year, the once-thriving 'Athos Family' declined to only a few people and announced to the outside world that strange objects should no longer be abused. Their family's prosperity was due to the sale of strange objects, and the reason for their decline was the same. Many years ago, the 'Athos Family' obtained a strange object, which was also the origin of the family's decline. To this day, the 'Athos Family' has named that strange object: Misfortune Object-01, which cannot be destroyed, cannot be shaken off, and cannot be controlled.】
【Alliance Era·Year 419: This year, the civilians of all the Grand Duchies, Kingdoms, and Allied Nations on the continent cheered. Although they did not know the specific reasons, all the Grand Duchies, Kingdoms, and Allied Nations united to facilitate the Alliance. Slavery was abolished, hereditary systems were abolished, lord systems were abolished, privateering permits were abolished, and King laws were abolished. In just a few years, a world of near-equality among civilians was presented to the public. Initially, the exploited civilians were very unaccustomed to it, and some even raised objections, but in the end, it was left unsettled.】
【In the same year, the only remaining direct bloodline of the 'Athos Family' exhausted their family fortune and, with the support of the Alliance, established the Holy Knights. Their purpose was only one: to find, eliminate, and imprison all strange objects in the world, that is, Misfortune Objects. And Misfortune Object-01 was the first Misfortune Object sealed by the Holy Knights.】
【Alliance Era·Year 1272: Hundreds of years passed. Due to the cessation of war, technology developed explosively. After hundreds of years, the Holy Knights had faded from the public eye. Misfortune Objects, extraordinary powers, and divine miracles were not gone, but hidden in the dark. This was the general trend. The establishment of the Alliance was bound to cause this result. Those who established the Alliance were the strongest extraordinary individuals at the time.】
【In the same year, the Holy Knights renamed 'Misfortune Objects' to 'Dangerous Objects' and expanded the numbering, differentiating the levels of Dangerous Objects. That initial Misfortune Object was renamed Dangerous Object·S-001.】
【In the same year, internal differences appeared within the Holy Knights. One faction advocated awe of mystery, only eliminating or imprisoning Dangerous Objects, while the other faction advocated using Dangerous Objects to eliminate Dangerous Objects to reduce personnel losses.】
【Alliance Era·Year 1322: The Holy Knights split into two. One branch became the 'Third Research Institute', and one branch became the 'Eternal Night Church'.】
【Alliance Era·Year 1672: The Third Research Institute was renamed the 'Containment Agency', claiming to the outside world that it was responsible for accommodating orphans, the intellectually disabled, and the mentally ill, but in reality, it was mainly responsible for containing and destroying Dangerous Objects.】
【In the same year: The Eternal Night Church was renamed 'Eclipse', led by Kingsley, searching for, utilizing, and eliminating Dangerous Objects, adhering to the attitude of never containing them.】
【Alliance Era·Year 1679: Steam engines, electricity, difference engines, piston engines, steel giant ships, etc., were launched one after another. Is this really still an extraordinary era? Or rather, is the extraordinary just hidden in the dark?】
Containment Agency Creed: We hide in the darkness, all nameless people, in awe of mystery, hiding danger in the darkness underground.
Eclipse Organization Creed: Existence is reasonable, Dangerous Objects must have their value.
Hunter's current organization: Containment Agency.
Official Position: Vice Legion Commander (currently being jointly impeached, original authority greater than the official Legion Commander, because of a bad track record, and being relatively silent, unwilling to participate in meaningless formal occasions, thus unable to serve as the official Legion Commander. Within the Containment Agency, his power is at the same level as the 'Inspector General' and the 'Financial General', and he is the controller of one of the three factions of the Containment Agency, the violent apparatus.)
Hint: This initial identity is bolstered by the Sky-Plundering Shocking Waves title.
【World, start.】
