Chapter 4043

Hot air with a bit of light gold rose. Su Xiao leaned against the hot spring pool made of Holy Spring Water. Just at this time, Benny walked into the planting area.

"Meow."

"Hmm."

"Meow meow~"

"Hmm, bring some."

"Meow meow meow!"

"..."

Regarding Benny's complaint, Su Xiao acted as if he didn't hear it. After all, the cat-and-dog war was not a matter of one or two days. He neither cared about this matter nor could he really control it.

Benny brought back 【Hunter's Night】. After this long leather coat was upgraded with "Abyssal Dragon Skin," its aura was completely different. The long leather coat was black overall, and the surface had a bit of a matte feel. After all, expecting Abyssal Dragon Skin to be very smooth was truly wishful thinking. This was already after precision processing.

Most of the lining area appeared dark red. Although you couldn't see this dark red after wearing it, this dark red gave people a sense of the flow of bloody life.

For more detailed parts, such as the three-link metal buttons on the cuffs and the fine chain ornaments on the waist, there was not much difference. However, the hem, which had already appeared tattered, was finally repaired. It wasn't that it wasn't repaired in the past; it was that the hem part was indeed severely damaged. After the long leather coat became strip-like overall, the hem part was basically thread-like.

【Hunter's Night】

Origin: Reincarnation Paradise.

Quality: Eternal Grade.

Category: Long leather coat.

Durability: 950/950 points (Increased by 500 points).

Basic Defense: 210 points (Increased by 120 points).

Eternal Grade Leather Armor Basic Bonus: 15% physical/energy damage reduction (Because the wearer's "Basic Damage Reduction" is higher than 50%, this bonus is reduced to 2.1%).

Equipment Requirement: True Stamina 2000 points, Abyssal Resistance 150 points or more.

Equipment Effect 1: Dragon Skin Spirit Outfit (Passive). For every 10,000 points of Mana, the wearer will additionally increase this equipment's defense by 10 points, penetration resistance by 2 points, high-temperature reduction by 2 points, and erosion reduction by 2 points.

Already increased: 2908 points of equipment defense.

Already increased: 582 points of penetration resistance.

Already increased: 582 points of high-temperature reduction.

Already increased: 582 points of erosion reduction.

Equipment Effect 2: Ember Fire (Core · Passive). Ember Fire was originally a miracle fire ignited in the Abyss. This equipment has been severely damaged many times, but it has also been repaired to its best state many times, so it has powerful carrying capacity and successfully withstood the fully awakened "Ember Fire," which gives this equipment the following characteristics.

Prompt: This equipment has suffered severe damage (overall damage exceeds 70%) and has been repaired to its best state after suffering severe damage, so the strength and score of this equipment will be improved accordingly.

Prompt: Because of this characteristic, the repair difficulty of this equipment is increased by 2000% (this is one of the most difficult pieces of equipment to repair in the Star Realm currently).

Introduction: The peak work of Leather Armor Grandmaster · Reed, although he himself has never admitted it.

Score: 9800 points (The score of this equipment is 3000–12000 points.)

Price: Cannot be traded.

Now that Hunter's Night is worn on the body, it feels very solid. This equipment provides 3118 points of equipment defense. Of course, this cannot be compared with Amu's kind of "body comprehensive defense."

If you have to compare, 3118 points of equipment defense is roughly equivalent to 800–1000 points of body comprehensive defense. Therefore, Amu, a tank-type whose body comprehensive defense breaks 10,000 after continuous injuries in actual combat, made Bain, the ancestor of Dukain, very disgusted. It is truly unkillable.

It is worth mentioning that Amu's "Immortal Spirit Wine" tank-type has a more powerful and jaw-dropping characteristic, which is that this tank-type can exempt all "instant death" and "non-existent characteristic slashes."

Of course, Amu doesn't have such a strong ability yet. After actual combat, it was found that it can exempt Abyssal-type instant death and "non-existent characteristic slashes." As for what is a "non-existent characteristic slash," please refer to the Law Breaker Shadow · Magic Blade ability and the Magic Scythe's slash.

Speaking of which, the reason why Abyssal races will not be slashed by the Magic Blade is that the root of their existence is in the "Origin Clan Emblem," not in their individual existence.

Su Xiao checked the harvest this time, only 【Immortal Will (Passive, Lv. EX)】 and 32 "Rare Origin Stones" were left.

【Immortal Will】 is a powerful ability with "absolute characteristics." Although this ability is not suitable for Su Xiao, he can choose to submit it to the Void Tree and pay 30,000 ounces of Space-Time Power to exchange for one that is suitable for him. However, at the current stage, there is no "absolute characteristic" ability suitable for him in Reincarnation Paradise's inventory, otherwise, he would have completed the exchange long ago.

As for the 32 "Rare Origin Stones," although they can strengthen Checking Zhan Long Shan 32 times, with Checking Zhan Long Shan's current +15 situation, the success rate of strengthening is too low. After saving up hundreds, he will consider hitting the strengthening level again.

There are still 200+ bottles of "Bright Red Secret Medicine" left. After re-catalysis, its validity period is extended, and it can probably be preserved for another 40+ days. Everything is ready, and he chooses to abandon the remaining 1 hour and 45 minutes of stay time and enter the new world progress ahead of schedule.

【Detected that you are about to enter a new world, Honor Supply has been activated.】

【You have obtained Honor Recovery Potion × 1 bottle.】

【You have obtained Combat Potion × 1 bottle.】

【You have obtained Immortal Potion × 1 bottle.】

【You have obtained Almighty Potion × 1 bottle.】

【Entering world; World of the Gods.】

【Detected that the Hunter's brand level has reached Lv. 100, and will no longer provide a fake identity for the Hunter.】

【Teleportation is about to begin...】

【30, 29, 28...】

No longer having an initial identity, Su Xiao didn't care too much. After all, his strength had already grown. But this teleportation countdown actually started from 30, which made people feel uneasy. This teleportation seemed to be a bit...

When the countdown reached 0, I don't know if it was an illusion, but Su Xiao suddenly felt a wind pressure, no, spatial pressure attacking the back of his head.

Dong~!

Su Xiao's eyes fell into darkness. I don't know how long it took, but the sound of buzzing noise entered his ears. He sat up from the single bed. Where he was, was a single room made of high-strength material similar to glass. This single room had a metal frame, and most of it was this transparent high-strength material.

Based on his experience, 90% of Supreme experts wouldn't be able to break this high-strength material. Not only that, but there was also a sealing device outside that looked like a circuit structure, but was actually a technique principle. The energy of this device came from the arm-thick cable at the top.

Judging from the outer skin of this cable, it didn't use electrical energy; it looked very much like biological energy or crystal energy. It seems that the electrical energy resources of this world are not abundant. This kind of ultra-high power consumption device is more suitable for biological energy or crystal energy. Electrical energy is more suitable as daily life energy, stable, and the price is friendly to the people.

Observing the surroundings, there were at least hundreds of such single rooms like glass rooms, and this was only limited to this floor. It was estimated that there should be many floors here.

Guards dressed in black combat uniforms, with badges on their upper arms and ranks on their right sides, occasionally walked past the transparent prison rooms. Their expressions were lazy, appearing to have loose defense, but in reality, what was really monitoring the fierce criminals here were the external living eyeballs mounted on their shoulders.

These eyeballs looked like biological eyeballs, but they were wrapped in mechanical structures. Not only that, some guards' bodies, such as arms or faces, presented a half-flesh, half-mechanical appearance. The precise and coordinated fusion feeling showed no rejection reaction. This scene immediately reminded people of flesh-and-blood cyberpunk.

【Entering world; World of the Gods.】

World difficulty: Lv. 69–Lv. 100.

Location: United Empire · Northwest · Infor City · North Port District · Itwa Underground Prison · Cell No. 1055.

World Source; 0%.

Faction: None.

World Introduction; Fate has quietly changed, it is an opportunity, and it is also destruction.

【Star Realm · Second Era: All prosperity and glory are past tense. The decline of civilization is destined. Only this world remains that is about to transcend, but has no possibility of transcendence.】

【This World · Empire Era · Year 105: Under the cooperation of the Mechanical God Sect, the Wang Zu, and the Three Great Families, the "United Empire" was finally announced to be established in the 105th year of the New Era.】

【Empire Era · Year 209: As the rival of the Empire, the "Goru Kingdom," has already declined in the long river of history. The forty-seven continents of this vast world, as well as many sea areas, are about to welcome a new master.】

【Empire Era · Year 359: The Goru Kingdom formally announced its surrender to the outside world and signed the "Dragon Fortress Agreement." Under the comparison of overwhelming strength, the "Dragon Fortress Agreement" was the last choice of the Goru Kingdom, either destruction or humiliation.】

【Empire Era · Year 409: The Mechanical God Sect's research project "Flesh and Machine" was formally published to the outside world. For a time, scholars in major city-states of the Empire were in an uproar. After discussion by scholars, it was discovered that this was almost a bright road without bumps.】

【Empire Era · Year 516: "Flesh/Machine/Prosthetic" was published in the top journal "Ascension" of the Mechanical God Sect, which promoted the progress of flesh-and-blood technology in this world.】

【Empire Era · Year 770: "Active Metal Nerve" was published in the journal "Ascension." The first mechanical warrior in this world was successfully transformed in the same year. He had 35% of his body as mechanical structure and 18% of his organs as active mechanical structure. His strength made the former enemies of the Empire silent for a time. In the same year, the forces secretly resisting the Empire quietly disbanded by more than 40%.】

【Empire Era · Year 1509: "Divine Flesh" was published in the top journal "Ascension." The next day, this issue of the journal was recalled, and all related research disappeared a few days later.】

【Empire Era · Year 1510: The first "Divine Flesh" transplantee awakened divinity from ancient times. It didn't have the power he imagined. He became a source of pollution for a city. Half a month later, this city was swallowed by divine pollution.】

【Empire Era · Year 2055: "Divine Flesh" was published again in the top journal "Ascension." However, this was already 395 years after the technology matured. The lessons of the past made the Mechanical God Sect particularly cautious.】

【Empire Era · Year 2088: The Empire had become the absolute hegemon of this world. Except for itself, no one could defeat it.】

【Empire Era · Year 2105: The heads of the three great families of the Empire took over the three ministerial positions under the King. The Empire entered a state of three-party confrontation. The Mechanical God Sect was the most prosperous, the Wang Zu was second, and the three ministers, although newly ascended to high positions, had deep foundations and could not be underestimated.】

【Empire Era · Year 2216: The 29th King passed away. Under the coercion of the Mechanical God Sect and the three ministers, although the Wang Zu inherited the throne, they could only let those who had not mastered extraordinary power ascend to the throne. The successive kings were busy with all kinds of government affairs, but with the biological flesh-and-blood technology of this world, few lived past 80 years old.】

【Empire Era · Year 2219: The 30th King "Roald · Saint · Adez" ascended to the throne. Having passed 40, he was the last hope of the Wang Zu.】

【Empire Era · Year 2241: Compared to when "Roald · Saint · Adez" first ascended to the throne, the Empire's fiscal revenue this year has at least increased sevenfold. The degree of public security and prosperity is not comparable to 20 years ago. But what makes people sigh is that the second son of His Majesty the King died of a sudden illness in June this year. This was a heavy blow to His Majesty the King, who was over 50. This was the eleventh child who died after he ascended to the throne.】

【Empire Era · Year 2255: Today is a day of national sorrow. The tenth daughter of His Majesty the King passed away at 2:15 PM today. Even with the full rescue of the priests of the Mechanical God Sect, life is like flowing sand between fingertips. The more you hold on, the more it flows. Today, the monarch of the Goru Kingdom, who has always been highly hostile to the Empire, personally arrived at the Empire's royal city, Star Shine City · Inseton, to mourn.】

【In the years since "Roald · Saint · Adez" ascended to the throne, he gradually abolished colonial rule over dozens of islands. After weighing the interests of all parties, he abolished the "Dragon Fortress Agreement" and other unequal treaties with the Goru Kingdom and the Seven Seas Alliance, and on this basis, opened up commercial transport to the outside world, significantly improving the economic level of the Goru Kingdom and the Seven Seas Alliance, making the originally high intention of war among the people in these two major countries gradually flatten, and finally turn to rejection. And during his reign, His Majesty the King gently mediated or forcefully prevented many medium and large-scale wars.】

【Empire Era · Year 2278: His Majesty King "Roald · Saint · Adez," after celebrating his 98th birthday and welcoming his 99th, suddenly fell into a coma at his birthday banquet. Although he woke up after half an hour, it caused an uproar among the media of the Empire and many countries. People began to worry, if this King steps down or passes away, then who else can control the Empire, this powerful monster that has no opponents?】

【World, begins.】

True Charisma -34 points. Su Xiao was accustomed to this kind of initial location, but this world introduction was completely different from what he had estimated. This world had a very glorious history and even almost reached transcendence, becoming a transcendent world of the Second Era.

Don't forget, the Second Era was the battle between Law Breakers and spellcasters. Not only the Void but also major high-tier worlds were affected. If this world really had that degree of glory, it would inevitably be affected by this century-long war.

Thinking about it this way, almost reaching transcendence under such a situation, this gold content is outrageously high. You know, the three transcendent worlds of the Second Era, Witch, Wind Sea, and Annihilation, only Annihilation reached transcendence during the chaotic war period. Witch and Wind Sea both reached transcendence after the situation stabilized in the late Second Era.

This place is called the World of the Gods. The history of the Second Era is not mentioned in the world introduction. There is only one possibility, that is, the gods entered this world after the original major force of this world was destroyed.

What is even more confusing is that from the time the gods entered this world until today, the world introduction of this world did not mention the gods, only their power, that is, the fusion of flesh and machine, prosthetics, active metal nerves, and "Divine Flesh" that can represent the power of the gods.

What is indisputable is that until today, "Divine Flesh" is the pinnacle of Star Realm biology. Although the gods are evil, the flesh-and-blood technology and biological technology they left behind are indeed powerful.

Unlike what people imagine, the gods do not rely on faith power. The four major factions of the First Era, Ancient Dragon, Sun, Lord, and Gods, among which the Sun is the pinnacle of faith power. The gods are flesh-and-blood technology. The ultimate means is, flesh is weak, machine ascends. That's right, they are a power route that can truly ascend.

Regarding machines and ascension, the world introduction mentions it many times, that is, the "Mechanical God Sect" of this world. No matter how you look at it, the root of this God Sect is the gods of this world.

Su Xiao has experienced worlds with the Mechanical God Sect before. Now it seems that its root should be this kind of high-position world, which is not uncommon for passing down power to mid-to-low-tier worlds.

Because of its powerful and stable power system, once it reaches a mid-to-low-tier world, it will naturally build a powerful force.

And, the exploration captain · Afia encountered in the previous world, the other party's power system, is derived from the god power system, the combination of machine and flesh.

The strongest force in this world is undoubtedly the Empire. Assuming the comprehensive strength of the Empire is 5000, then the other two medium-sized countries, plus dozens of island small countries, have a combat power of only 5–10. The Empire can send a legion-level unit at will, and it can make only the Empire remain in this world within ten days, eliminate these countries, and occupy 25.956% of the population of this world.

This world is almost about to transcend, and the land area is very vast. In addition, it has been less than 2500 years since the Empire was established. The current population base of 985 billion makes the Empire not very enthusiastic about land, especially in the far north, where there is a large amount of fertile uncultivated ownerless land.

This is also why the two medium-strength countries in this world have huge populations and vast lands. Most of the war conflicts in this world come from the competition for technology, as well as differences in race and faith. This difference in race is not a difference in human race, but a difference in species.

Even if they all belong to the human race, just the difference in human race will lead to various intense conflicts. The difference in species, which is more direct, makes it easier to fight. In addition, the two sides are not different in language, but the way of communication is different. Some races use tentacles to entangle to complete communication.

Imagine one communicating through language and one through tentacles. If these two sides negotiate, if there is no translator, the negotiation will turn into a duel in seconds.

The good news is that the Empire is a force dominated by the human race, where more than 95% of the residents are human. As for the one-eyed race that has one eye, although their bodies are a bit taller, they are at least humanoid. Hmm, included in the human race.

Closing the world introduction, Su Xiao follows the guess that the gods are behind the "Mechanical God Sect." Are there hidden and powerful forces supporting the three major forces of this world, "Mechanical God Sect," "Wang Zu," and "Three Ministers"?

Otherwise, why would they share the interests of the Empire with the gods? No matter in which era, the gods are one of the main C-positions in the evil faction.

Besides that, Su Xiao's main quest in this world is also extremely special, the content is:

【Main Quest: Pending state.】

Difficulty level: Lv. 69–???

Quest introduction: It will be determined based on your behavior in the next 24 hours, including the content of your main quest, difficulty, and final development direction, etc.

Quest deadline: --

Quest reward: --

Quest penalty: --

Seeing this content, Su Xiao knows that he must leave this underground prison named "Itwa" as soon as possible.

He stood up from the single bed and came to the high-strength crystal material that looked like thick glass, pressing one hand on it.

Crack, crack, crack~

The crystal layer spread and assimilated, then shattered with a roar. The next second, a harsh alarm sounded in this layer of prison.

The guards who were originally lazy in this layer all ran over quickly. Some simply activated the space-type prosthetics and arrived in front of cell No. 1055 in an instant. Various firearms or biological weapons were about to aim at Su Xiao, but the guards holding them slowed down their movements one after another. Some newly appointed guards still wanted to raise their weapons to aim at Su Xiao, but were pressed down by an old oil stick on the side.

The guard captain looked Su Xiao up and down. This was actually using the living prosthetic eye on his right eye to scan and upload to the "Network Cluster." He found that this person was not a fierce criminal, and was not even recorded with any information by the "Network Cluster."

There are two ways to deal with this. The neutral handling method is to detain, provide food and temporary accommodation, and verify his identity at the same time.

Of course, there is another emergency method: communicate politely, provide temporary proof of identity as soon as possible, and then immediately upload and report to the superior department.

The guard captain chose the latter without hesitation. The reason was that his right eye, the living prosthetic eye, could not only scan and upload, but also detect the enemy's general intelligence and combat power. Seeing the combat power evaluation that had already broken nine digits and was still soaring, the guard captain immediately turned off this function because his right brain began to feel warm. This was the internal temperature overload caused by the right eye detecting too high combat power. If he didn't stop, this living prosthetic eye would pop~ and explode.

Half an hour later, holding a temporary identity certificate, Su Xiao walked out of the Itwa Underground Prison under the respectful delivery of the warden and deputy warden of the Itwa Underground Prison.

The warden, who was a bit chubby, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He relied on his Supreme strength and family support to get this fat job.

The one he met today, he couldn't perceive any aura of the other party at all. No, there was a feeling of bloodiness and safety? This is obviously a perception misdirection. The warden was sure that if he insisted on fighting with this unknown outsider, let alone the Itwa Underground Prison, whether the entire North Port, or even the entire Infor City would exist later, were two different things.

It's not that this unknown outsider insisted on destroying Infor City, but the aftermath of the battle after the fight started would highly likely cause Infor City to cease to exist after the battle ended.

Compared to this kind of disaster where the whole family, ah no, the whole clan's relatives all died, respectfully sending away this unknown outsider, the accountability from above didn't count as a fart at all.

The warden didn't care about maintaining his former prestige and ran back to the office as fast as he could, picking up the communication device of the special channel to contact his superior.

Twenty minutes later, Royal City · Star Shine City · Inseton, South City District, Empire Special Affairs Department · 3rd Floor.

The staff member who finished the communication took the recorded content and took the special elevator up to the 15th floor, stopping at the door of the Minister's office. Although the person inside was still the Deputy Minister, becoming Minister was only a matter of time. After all, the other party was the youngest Supreme expert in the Empire.

After tidying up his appearance, the young staff member knocked on the door.

Dong dong dong~

After the door was knocked for a while, a somewhat cold female voice came from inside.

"Come in."

The young staff member walked into the office. The decoration of the office was a bit old-fashioned. After all, the previous Minister who died in battle was over fifty. Behind the large black wooden desk was a woman wearing glasses, with an imperial sister temperament, and a faint smile on her face, but she made people feel cold.

Reshma, Deputy Minister of the Empire Special Affairs Department, future Minister, the youngest Supreme expert in the Empire.

Facing this person, the young staff member subconsciously lowered his head, although the Empire had long had no kneeling rituals.

"No need to lower your head, I am the same as you, both members of the Empire Special Affairs Department."

Reshma picked up the record handed over by the young staff member and looked at it. Her expression changed, and she stood up and left. This made the young staff member forget the awkwardness just now and asked: "Sir, what are you doing?"

"Go and report this matter to His Majesty the King. By the way, you come with me, and all other details of this matter, report them to His Majesty the King word for word."

"Ah?"

The young staff member was numb. Go to see the King? For a time, he was both excited and nervous. The current King was the monarch he had admired for a long time. When he joined the "Empire Special Affairs Department," it was because he had some admiration for His Majesty the King.

Infor City, in a restaurant, after Su Xiao finished his lunch, he closed the "World Food Guide." This restaurant, which is famous in Infor City, tastes very average.

Filling his stomach, next, he has to start doing business. First, the main quest of this world will be comprehensively judged and triggered based on his behavior in the next 24 hours. In other words, the more earth-shaking things he does in these 24 hours, the stronger the main quest triggered. Correspondingly, during the completion period, the more World Source he obtains.

Determining this, Su Xiao drank the fine wine in his cup. He had already faintly sensed that there were many Abyssal passages in this world. So, the first step is to slaughter all the "Abyssal creatures" in the Abyssal spread area of this world.
