Origin Altar.

Qi Sheng In his hand, there is a blue brand that is blooming with brilliance.

This is exactly the territory rule for the latest containment: Quantization.

Its effect is somewhat similar to the ability of Guidance, which can visually present all concepts.

For example, the target's health bar and blue bar (mental power) can be accurately displayed.

It can be regarded as a weakened version of Guidance's ability.

But now Guidance is seriously injured, and many in-depth analyzes require Sacrificial Power to advance, such as the review of past images.

The underlying logic of Quantization rules is visual analysis, so there is no problem in this regard.

The introduction of new rules will completely solve a problem that forum players have always been dissatisfied with.

Why can't the monster's health bar be analyzed and displayed? As a result, you can't judge how much energy the monster has left every time you fight.

Only when the monster enters a dying state can you see the display on the status bar.

The latest containment rule Quantization can solve this problem.

It can even allow players to accurately calculate the killing line of hunting targets and conduct a round of explosive concentrated fire.

In addition to health bars and blue bars, Quantization can also provide players with accurate distance measurement, making each shot more accurate.

Other data including hatred (target's desire to attack) display, enemy's special status duration, spell casting speed, and other data can be obtained through Quantization.

This rule has limited improvement for ordinary players.

But for those commanding players who strive for excellence and want to break through the limits, it is enough to elevate their abilities to a higher level.

Regarding the interpretation of Quantization Monster Soul, relevant forum posts are constantly emerging.

But Qi Sheng didn't pay too much attention.

He focused on the development and use of the Quantization rules, and his primary goal was to create a complete monster health bar and blue bar display system.

After docking with Challenger System, this system can indirectly improve the player's hunting efficiency.

Secondly, there is an unpopular Monster Soul, which may become the popular Monster Soul after Quantization debuts.

That is "Siphon" Monster Soul that can absorb the target's spiritual power.

This Monster Soul is very unpopular because it is impossible to know the opponent's mental power reserves.

As a result, the specific effect is completely unknown. Perhaps the opponent has sufficient mental reserves, and Siphon for a long time did not have any impact on the target.

Therefore, players basically use Siphon Monster Soul for charging and battery life, absorbing the mental power of their own players and speeding up the recovery of their own mental power.

When Qi Sheng was conceiving the design plan for the "Quantization system", Guidance's feedback tips came to his mind.

The next second, his sight spanned space and returned to the earth.

Moon, Moon Eclipse City.

Security Center.

In the circular hall, a 360-degree holographic star map slowly rotated in the cold blue light.

The 28 on-duty personnel sat at their workstations, and wherever their fingertips passed, data flowed down like a waterfall.

At this moment, the alarm sounded in the Arctic key monitoring area, breaking the calm.

Then, a beating red light spot appeared on the earth's star map.

Sensing something was wrong, the technical officer on duty quickly came to the main control console.

The fingertips drew an arc towards the star map, and the holographic star map responded suddenly.

The screen began to fall rapidly from the orbit of the moon, and the blue earth zoomed in rapidly.

The atmosphere recedes to both sides like a veil that has been lifted. The white snow in the Arctic Circle glows with a cold blue light under the surveillance filter. When the lens penetrates the clouds, the black crack across the ice sheet appears.

During the advancement process, the monitoring system automatically marks abnormal data.

Crack length: 3.723 months, width 2.323 months.

Energy fluctuation amplitude: the maximum amplitude is 28.23%.

The energy intensity is: 563 monthly grains."

Energy vortex: 7 new Black Tide material vortices rotating counterclockwise.

Spatial wrinkling: observable.

When the scene finally focused on the Black Tide fissure at close range, all the personnel on duty took a deep breath at the same time.

Energy mist is scattered randomly at the edge of the crack, appearing in the shape of illusory Black Tide tentacles.

Even the energy fluctuations are no longer the usual regular pulsations, and black energy arcs are constantly bursting out from the edges of the cracks.

"Cut to the energy spectrum perspective."

The picture suddenly changed, and the originally dark crack revealed its terrifying nature under a special filter.

Countless tiny black particles are pouring out from the depths of the crack, and each particle has the property of swallowing light.

In the center of the slit, a swirling structure similar to a pupil is forming.

"What's the energy reading comparison?"

"It has exceeded the previous highest point and is more than 100 times higher than when it first appeared."

Although this value did not reach the level of Black Tide invasion, nor was it enough to open up a large-scale Spatial Rift, the technical officer still sent this information to the consul on duty that day without hesitation.

As for Star Network, no report is needed.

It monitors all information on the moon and the earth in real time, and nothing can be hidden from Star Network.

Presumably Star Network already knows.

Earth, arctic site.

At five o'clock in the morning, the soft light of the sleeping cabin gradually brightens.

Yu Chuan woke up from his sleep, opened the thermostatic quilt, and stepped barefoot on the heated floor.

He came to the mirror and stretched out his hand to wipe away the thin frost that had condensed on the surface.

The mirror reflected an angular face with clean outlines and a green-gray beard that made the jawline clearly visible.

The shallow scar on the brow bone adds a bit of toughness.

He squinted his eyes, a habit he had developed from long-term exposure to polar glare, and then he picked up an old-fashioned razor. The sound of the blade scraping against his skin was particularly clear in the silent cabin.

The foam slides down the jawline.

After shaving, he looked at the kitchen table and shouted:

"Xiao A, heating."

The projector light above flickered, converging on the workbench into Artificial Intelligence Xiao A the size of a baby's fist.

He jumped onto the cooking table, jumped hard towards the switch, and smashed it down.

Suddenly the cooking table lit up with a warm light, and then the chef robot activated and started busy in front of the cooking table.

Yu Chuan went to the coffee machine and pressed the switch.

The metal capsule made a squeezing sound under pressure, and the dark brown liquid slowly poured into the porcelain cup, evaporating into white mist.

He habitually tested the temperature of the cup wall with his thumb.

When he turned around with the coffee, the chef robot was placing the last dish of breakfast on the plate.

When Yu Chuan sits down, the desktop automatically lights up with a halo.

I just finished replenishing supplies yesterday, and today's breakfast is particularly rich.

There was a bowl of steaming oatmeal on the thermal tray, with a thin layer of oatmeal floating on the surface, and pickled cucumbers on the small plate next to it.

There is also his favorite omelette, which is slightly burnt and the yolk is half-solidified. When you poke it with chopsticks, the golden egg liquid seeps into the crispy toasted whole-wheat bread.

Finally, there is a small plate of smoked salmon, with a salty and fresh smell mixed with the aroma of black pepper.

Just after taking two bites, Yu Chuan's expression was stunned.

"It tastes really bad. Little B, have your skills deteriorated? Is this for people to eat?"

At this time Artificial Intelligence Xiao A came to the dining table, sniffed hard at the food on the plate, and then helplessly spread his hands:

"There is nothing wrong with the food. It is not Little B's fault. It is most likely that you have recently obtained the Monster World qualification and enjoyed spiritual food, which led to a change in your feelings about food."

After hearing these words, Yu Chuan couldn't help but sigh in despair.

Xiao A is right.

He is the latest batch of players to qualify when the Eternal Stillness Ice Lake node opens.

As a player, what you enjoy most is hunting and delicious food.

After he left the Eternal Stillness Ice Lake area, the first thing he did was buy himself a spiritual food to try, and he was astonished.

In the future, when he works hard in A-Le Training Camp, he will use part of his Sacrificial Power income to buy spiritual food every day.

As a result, the symptoms described by forum players began to appear: a mouthful of spiritual food enters the soul, and the reality is like dust.

"Today's vitamin intake is recommended to increase by 12%."

The robotic arm of the chef robot came again and put down a glass of freshly squeezed mixed juice. The deep green of kale and the bright red of cranberries formed a gradient layer in the glass.

Yu Chuan picked it up and took a sip, his expression suddenly fell:

"It doesn't taste good."

"I'm so bored now, I have some potential." Xiao A cheered at this moment.

Yu Chuan couldn't help but roll his eyes, but he still drank the mixed juice decisively.

After finally becoming a qualified player of Monster World, he still wants to live longer, so he needs to take good care of his body.

I finished my breakfast in a hurry, and when the last sip of coffee slid down my throat, the cabin air pressure gauge just jumped to the green range.

He put on the insulating suit and closed the mask, and the prompt Xiao A sounded in his ears:

"The outdoor temperature is minus 82 degrees. You must come back alive. I will wait for you here, for sure!" Xiao A, the drama star, screamed at the top of his lungs.

Ignoring Xiao A, Yu Chuan passed through the isolation area and opened the triple thermal insulation door curtain.

Outside, a blizzard is tearing at the alloy exterior walls of the Arctic station.

He wrapped himself tightly in the electric heating suit, and the white mist formed ice on the mask.

This hemispherical station built on a glacier is the only artificial light source within a radius of 500 kilometers.

Yu Chuan's daily routine is to maintain the row of detection balls erected along the perimeter of the site.

This is one of the monitoring stations arranged by the Moon Eclipse Clan on the earth. It is also an important node for the Earth Alliance to monitor space fluctuation information. It is guarded alternately by the human race and Moon Eclipse Clan, and the monitoring personnel are replaced every six months.

If the monitoring ball detects abnormal spatial fluctuations, it indicates that Spatial Rift is likely to appear nearby.

This will make the whole Earth Alliance nervous,

Because it is impossible to judge whether the descending force is an enemy or a friend.

An unusual space invasion occurred some time ago. It is said that Earth Alliance and the Advent forces had a fight over the Atlantic Ocean.

Fortunately, the aliens were repulsed and did not turn into a descending war.

If a fight breaks out, even if we can win, the ecology that has been restored with great effort over the years will be severely damaged again.

Energy pollution that does not belong to the earth, climate disorder, species mutation... Every time war comes, it is a heavy blow to the environment.

"Old man, get up."

When he came to the corner, he squatted down and knocked on the metal shell of robot No. 7.

The snow on the top of the robot slid off, revealing the dark silver Moon Eclipse Clan emblem underneath.

"Start the self-test program." He said to the watch.

Robot No. 7 made a low hum, and the ice crystals on the shell shattered in the vibration.

The spherical body slowly unfolds, revealing the precision sensor array inside. Light blue light patterns flow along the metal surface, and finally converge at the core, forming a small holographic projection.

[System self-checking...]

[Energy Reserve:97%]

[Sensor Calibration: Normal]

[Space fluctuation record: no abnormality]

Yu Chuan exhaled a breath of white air, and there were a few more ice marks on the mask.

Reach out and click on the detailed data, and a series of jumping numbers and waveforms will immediately unfold in front of your eyes.

The space readings over the past 24 hours were so smooth that there was no change, not even the faintest ripple.

"It's another happy and peaceful day. It's great." He whispered to himself.

Robot No. 7 completed the self-inspection and closed the shell again, leaving only the signal light on the top flashing green light regularly.

Yu Chuan patted its cold metal surface and continued to patrol along the perimeter of the site.

The next few test balls all functioned normally.

In the wind and snow, these silent metal spheres were lined up along the curved outline of the site, one every 50 meters.

They record every subtle spatial tremor on this ice sheet, day after day, year after year.

Walking to the last detection ball, Yu Chuan looked up at the sky out of habit.

Apart from the misty aurora, there is only wind and snow swirling endlessly.

He squatted down and repeated the inspection process he had done countless times, checking readings, clearing snow, and testing signal strength.

[No. 12 detection ball status: good]

"Keep it up."

With that said, he stood up and brushed the snow off his knees, stepping on the snow and heading back to the station.

Along the way, I looked up at the silver-gray dome of the site. Between the criss-crossing alloy skeletons, dozens of small maintenance robots were shuttled like worker ants.

In fact, the daily operations of the entire Arctic site can be completely left to robots.

The automation technology of the Moon Eclipse Clan is enough to allow this scientific research station to operate unmanned for decades.

The detection ball is maintained by the maintenance robot itself, the supply drone can deliver it accurately, and the collected spatial fluctuation information can be sent to the Earth Alliance center in one second.

The core reason why humans and Moon Eclipse Clan must take turns stationed at the North Pole station is hidden in Article 17 of the "Advent Monitoring Agreement".

[All space monitoring nodes must retain intelligent life operators as the biological keys for encryption protocols.]

Every time he logs into the main control system, the scanner will flash a special blue light and collect his biological information to unlock it.

This security system designed by the Moon Eclipse Clan turns many unrepeatable aspects of life itself into the last layer Firewall.

The tragedies caused by the mechanical war back then are still vivid in our minds.

In many areas that are purely mechanically guarded, a lot of information has been tampered with or even directly manipulated.

No one knows what kind of technology the descending forces have.

In order to ensure everything is foolproof, every time you log in, your identity information is first detected, then sent to the Earth Alliance center, and then unlocked.

The seemingly meaningless existence is actually the most critical part of the Arctic safety monitoring point.

Returning to the site, the triple airtight doors closed one after another behind them, sealing out the severe cold of the polar region.

Yu Chuan shook off the ice crystals on the thermal suit, and Circulatory System immediately started working in the cabin, taking away the cold air surrounding his body.

"Biological key verification passed, welcome back from hunting." Artificial Intelligence Xiao A on the main console waved at him vigorously.

On the other side, the holographic screen on the wall unfolded today's monitoring summary in front of him.

The data flow is smooth, almost no different from every day in the past.

Xiao A then jumped over the walls and followed:

"There are 16 hours left in today's game time quota. Do you want to go online now?"

The game quota is the time he can play games and entertainment every day.

At other times, I need to be responsible for checking various instruments and even talking to the Earth Alliance security center.

So you can't play the game 24 hours a day.

But he is 30 years old this year, and he will be able to retire in accordance with the special work contract in about two years and settle down in Data City.

By then, he will begin a long journey of retirement.

At that time, Monster World will be able to play happily, even if it is not offline for 24 hours.

There are also various benefits every year, and you can even enjoy priority medical quotas from the Moon Eclipse Clan to Human Federation.

"Play, what I'm looking forward to most now is to play games online."

"What about me? You used to like chatting with me the most." Artificial Intelligence Xiao A had a heartbroken expression on his face.

"You have been relegated to the cold palace by me now, accept it."

With that said, Yu Chuan took off the outer protective suit, revealing the close-fitting body temperature regulating suit underneath.

Then he walked towards the silver cabin in the corner of the living area. At this time, the game cabin was in standby mode, with a faint blue breathing light glowing around the edge.

An old-fashioned electronic clock hangs next to the game room, showing Earth Standard Time.

Yu Chuan glanced at the date and went to the closet to change his game clothes.

"Remember to drink the conditioning liquid." Xiao A controlled the service robot and brought a cup of transparent liquid for conditioning the body.

This is one of the configurations provided by the Moon Eclipse Clan to the Arctic Station. You can drink it for free every day on duty here.

Yu Chuan took the cup and drank it in one gulp. The liquid slid down his throat with a rusty smell, and then entered the game chamber.

As the hatch cover is pressed down, the nerve hose automatically connects to the body, and a cold feeling creeps up the spine.

Entering the game, the figure of Yu Chuan appears in the Phantom Spirit Wasteland space and the resurrection of Teleportation Point.

What appears in front of you is a dense crowd of players.

In terms of the excitement of Space Node, the newly opened Phantom Spirit Wasteland is second only to Emperor's Tomb Village.

A large number of newbies huddle together here to keep warm. When they go out, they have a head-on fight with the Bliss Legion. The whole process is high-energy.

But he didn't act in a hurry and found an open space to sit down.

Open the forum and start reading the guide.

His time at A-Le Training Camp is running out and he is about to graduate from school.

If you want to come back and take a look, you will have to take a fatal blow from the "gatekeeper".

So he has to consider what to do next.

There are many graduation strategies for newbies on the forum, which explain in detail all the popular gameplay.

The first is Adventurer World, which is the copy mode.

The income output of this gameplay is stable, and there are occasional surprises. If you produce rule fragments, you can get rich in a wave.

It is the hottest game recently.

The disadvantage is that it requires a team, and individual groups are not as good as those fixed teams in terms of copy speed and tacit cooperation.

Mengxin who chooses this growth model needs to integrate into a stable team as soon as possible.

This is also a way for many newcomers to find a home. If you mix dungeons for a long time, you can quickly find a team that suits you.

The disadvantage is that if you choose to become a dungeon party player directly after graduation, it will be a bit difficult to challenge the lowest difficulty level in the early stage.

The second option is to explore and hunt freely.

This is a high-risk, high-return growth path.

Through this mode, many players discovered Fortuitous Encounter and became rich quickly through exploration.

However, it is difficult for loose monsters in the wild to produce stable income, and the lower limit is very low, unless they join those fixed guilds and find external nodes for war containment.

This gameplay also requires joining a fixed battle group, unless you are a pure adventure player like Exploration Party.

The third option is the recently popular Gold Coin Merchant Association delivery person.

This is also a growth channel that can produce stable income.

Gold Coin Merchant Association has also created a delivery person hierarchy system for this purpose. Delivery staff who have been taking orders for a long time can take delivery orders that can bring high profits after their level is improved.

Each order is a percentage profit, and you can follow the development of the Gold Coin Merchant Association to gradually increase your income.

But Yu Chuan will definitely not choose this path.

The disadvantage is that it is too boring.

Only Fishing Party player is the most loyal delivery person of the Gold Coin Merchant Association. Other players simply cannot bear to float on the sea all day long.

Many players who graduated from Rin Dong Snowfield worked for a period of time in the early stage, and then went to other ways of playing when they had saved enough Sacrificial Power.

The fourth option is the Emperor's Tomb Village mining area.

The output of this gameplay is relatively stable, but the disadvantage is that it is boring and has too few surprises.

Even though the output of the mining area is expanding day by day, few players still choose to join the miners' party, and most of them are temporary workers.

It's also the kind that you can run away after you have saved enough Sacrificial Power.

He even couldn't understand why this gameplay could have loyal players, and they were called miner party players by forum players.

It can only be said that the world is so big and full of wonders, and all kinds of weird quirks can be found in the game.

The fifth choice is Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range.

This is undoubtedly the most intense battlefield at this stage, and it is also the palace of the strong in the hearts of players.

But at certain times, this is also an environment suitable for the development of newbies.

For example, in the current Waning Crescent stage, Evil Moon will continue to breed various evil monsters such as Cursed Soldiers, which is suitable for the growth and development of novices.

But there are many disadvantages, it is easily affected by melees that break out from time to time, and the benefits are not high.

The sixth choice is the Sen Luo Lin Realm region...

After looking at various ways to play, he felt that the one that suited him best was the one from the Ground Roar Continent area: Zhu Ri Zhi Di.

This scene was opened during the last round of recruitment. The level of exploration and development was moderate, and multiple resource-type Domain Node were found.

You can choose to explore the foggy areas in this area, buy a Treasure Seeking Rat and go in half-hunting and half-exploration mode.

If you can find Fortuitous Encounter, you can become rich instantly.

Secondly, there are many potential guilds operating in this area. You can try to join these guilds. There is a high probability that you will go to the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range battlefield in the future.

That was the battlefield he was looking forward to.

Fight with the Bully Alliance formed by Di Nian Bully and experience the most heart-pounding peak collision.

After clarifying his thoughts, Yu Chuan summoned his space bag and looked at the balance.

I have saved more than 30,000 Sacrificial Power.

He does not plan to spend this part Sacrificial Power for the time being, and will consider how to spend it after graduation.

This is also a suggestion given by players on the forum.

The graduation standard of A-Le Training Camp does not depend on the player's Monster Soul level.

The guard can only judge the player's physical quality, mental strength and other attribute information through perception.

As long as the player's combat power value reaches the standard, he will be forcibly removed.

Therefore, suppressing your combat power will allow you to stay in A-Le Training Camp longer.

The acquisition of Evolution Points cannot be suppressed. Each successful hunt will passively increase the strength of Monster Soul.

However, players can decide on their own to increase the combat power brought by spending Sacrificial Power.

Therefore, suppressing combat power has become a strategy commonly used by players in A-Le Training Camp to delay the time point of graduation.

After graduation, use all the Sacrificial Power accumulated to achieve an explosive increase in combat power.

He called up the mall panel, purchased three bottles of primary recovery potion, and then called up the panel to teleport out the space scene.

Entering the Phantom Spirit Wasteland area, at the end of your sight is the grand beginner battlefield.

Countless players and Bliss Legion's troops are fighting passionately on the ruins.

"A level 32 warrior majoring in Gāng Qì Monster Soul, please create a DPS team, which can be used as a deputy T. The hair-pulling skill is fully charged, so pull quickly."

I shouted on the regional channel, and the next second, multiple invitations to team up sounded in my mind.

This is the value of melee combat on the battlefield.

Although warriors are not as popular as damage-bearing tanks, they are also a popular genre that many teams want to recruit.

At similar levels, it is most difficult for players of the Sanren legal system to form a team. After all, this is the genre chosen by most players.

Yu Chuan looked at the career information and team configuration sent by the captain, and found a team of 32 people to join.

"Brother, come to the coordinates quickly. The enemy's firepower is fierce. Please ask for support."

"Brother Gangzhan, hurry up, my hair has been pulled out and I need your help."

Listening to the mixed shouts of men and women in the team's voice channel, Yu Chuan took action decisively, released Gāng Qì to cover his whole body, and quickly advanced in the direction of the blue cursor on the map.

It was a scene of huge fights along the way.

Cursing, fighting, rolling, roaring... A-Le Training Camp is the only one with such exciting fighting scenes among the areas that players have explored.

There are no tactics here, only the purest fighting.

Yu Chuan quickly joined the battlefield and started a passionate charge with his new teammates.

At this moment, Yu Chuan even felt that he had a bit of the style of a competitive party player, and his skills were really strong.

In this rookie battlefield, we already have the combat power to "overwhelm the heroes".

In the words of a teammate: As expected of a senior who is about to graduate, you are really good at pretending.

Time passed in the midst of the fight. By swallowing the recovery potion, Yu Chuan managed to hold on for three hours without falling to the ground.

But in the end, he was knocked down by a ferocious offensive launched by the Bliss Legion, and was finally submerged under the attack of Bliss troops.

Returning to Xiao Hei's Room, Yu Chuan called up the forum interface and prepared to find a live broadcast of a competitive party player to learn some skills.

After some searching, he found a live broadcast room where the previous round of Ancient God Arena video replay was being explained and started listening to the class.

During this period, I would often follow the barrage with curse words, criticizing the anchor's pretentious behavior.

Just when the resurrection cooldown is halfway through.

Yu Chuan suddenly heard the challenger prompt in his mind:

[Challenger Tip: Warning, the monitoring site found signal anomalies!]

The sudden reminder made Yu Chuan's nerves tense instantly.

The game warehouse is connected to the site network. At this time, a prompt is issued. There is a high probability that there is a problem with the outside world.

The next second, the game's force exit mechanism is activated.

Yu Chuan's consciousness was suddenly pulled back from the game world to reality.

The dizziness caused by the disconnection of neural links made his eyes darken and his eardrums buzzed.

The emergency lighting of Game Cabin turned on at this moment, and the dazzling red light representing a special situation flashed crazily in the site space.

He pushed open the Game Cabin door, and cold air poured into his lungs, carrying a strange smell.

It smells like rotten metal or burnt meat.

"Xiao A, report the situation."

He shouted hoarsely, but there was no response.

I quickly stood up and left the game room, and found that the main console screen had all turned into distorted snowflake noise, and only the backup terminal in the corner was still beating with a line of text:

[External intrusion confirmed, protocol 17 is in effect, the biometric key is locked and needs to be reactivated.]

Yu Chuan's temples were pounding.

He stumbled towards the observation window and pulled open the radiation curtain.

I was surprised to find that the snowstorm outside had stopped.

Pick up the night vision binoculars by the window and zoom in on the distant scene.

I saw the snowflakes outside suspended in mid-air, as if solidified by some invisible force.

Farther away, on the ice sheet that should have been completely dark, there was a thick, asphalt-like black substance surging towards the site.

"What the fuck is this."

Where the black matter passes, the monitoring balls go out one after another.

As if being swallowed by darkness, the metal shell collapsed like rotten fruit and melted into the darkness.

Yu Chuan staggered back, knocking over the tool rack behind him.

Metal parts crashed to the ground, causing harsh echoes in Deathly Stillness's cabin.

"Xiao A, activate emergency protocol and block all entrances and exits!"

This time, Xiao A still has no response.

He turned to look at the console, his pupils suddenly tightened, and he found that the projection of Xiao A kept flickering and seemed to have been disconnected.

Yu Chuan's breathing almost stopped.

He quickly came to the main console and tried to activate the biometric key.

Now that the site permissions can only be used after reactivation, he must pass on the situation here.

But after scanning, the information obtained was: biometric key, verification failed.

Bang!

He punched the main console.

Moon Eclipse Clan's technology has never been faulty, but it failed at this critical stage.

The activation of the biometric key cannot be subject to external interference at all. This is the most cutting-edge technology of the Moon Eclipse Clan, which can ensure that the site can maintain signal transmission even under external interference.

But now it has failed.

At this time, a strange sound came from the direction of the triple airtight door.

It was like the sound of fingernails scraping against the alloy door panel, with a slightly harsh sound.

He stared at the crack in the door and saw a wisp of black mist seeping in, crawling on the floor like a living thing.

Then the metal in the direction of the airtight door quickly melted and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only pure darkness surging ahead.

It's like a passage leading to an endless abyss, unfolding and expanding before your eyes.

In the face of this dark force, even the cold was swallowed up. Even though the site gate had been destroyed, the cold air from the outside did not invade.

Yu Chuan's breathing stagnated in his chest.

The moment the black mist touched the ground, the titanium alloy floor seemed to be eaten by an invisible giant mouth and quickly disappeared.

Darkness spreads like a tide, and wherever it passes, metal, plastic, glass... all materials are decomposed at the moment of contact.

Including walls, pipes, instruments, everything is silent in Black Tide Annihilation.

Yu Chuan decisively came to the weapons bay and wanted to take out weapons from inside to fight back.

But I found that because the biometric key was not unlocked, the weapons bay door could not be opened.

After slamming the hatch twice, Yu Chuan felt the ultimate despair.

At this moment, the surging black mist began to shrink and collapse, and finally outlined a vague and ferocious outline in the black mist.

Before he could even completely condense his figure, Yu Chuan's retinas began to burn as he looked at her.

Then his whole body was shaking uncontrollably, and blood and tears kept oozing from his eyes.

Soon, his vision was filled with blood.

But he gritted his teeth and stabbed the back of his neck with trembling fingers. His nails dug deeply into his skin, and blood slid down his cheeks.

This is not self-harm.

The Moon Eclipse Clan biochip buried in the back of the neck was finally activated under the stimulation of severe pain and blood.

His pupils suddenly shrank, and fine silver lines appeared in the whites of his eyes, like some ancient runes swimming in his blood vessels.

"Information... delivered..."

Every time he uttered a word, his throat felt like it was being scraped by a knife blade.

The evil figure became more solid in the black mist, but Yu Chuan was no longer visible.

This is very similar to the evil creature under the Black Tide system in the Monster World game, which is simply not something he can contend with.

Even before contact, his body was already unable to support him.

Blood also oozed from the nose, and there was a sharp pain like tearing in the eardrums.

But no matter what the price, he must send the intelligence back to the Earth Alliance. This is the ultimate mission of the "security guard" of the monitoring station.

Even if you die, you must sound the warning siren of alien invasion of the earth.

At this moment, the surging black mist approached, and the right arm that first came into contact with the black mist disappeared instantly.

The thick dark substance climbed along the collarbone like a living thing.

Yu Chuan could clearly feel that the right half of his body was like a candy bar thrown into hot coffee, dissolving rapidly, and the severe pain from the spinal nerves caused countless gold stars to explode in front of his eyes.

"Damn, what a bad luck... there is no hope of retirement."

At the last moment of his life, an idea popped into Yu Chuan's mind.

If nothing unexpected happens, he is only two years away from a wonderful retirement life, and by then he will be able to usher in the happiest time in his life.

But the surprise still came.

Fortunately, my parents will be taken care of by Human Federation...

"Are you really going to die? I'm still so young..."

Just before Yu Chuan's consciousness was about to sink into the darkness of Eternal, he suddenly heard Roar like magma rushing through his blood vessels.

A familiar voice sounded in his mind, instantly waking up his sinking consciousness.

[Challenger Tip: It is detected that the player's vital signs are below the safety line and are being eroded by non-terrestrial natural forces. The player's body conversion mode is forcibly activated.]

Huh?

Yu Chuan was completely confused when he heard that Monster World's challenger appeared in the real world.

Opening his eyes, he found that his vision had become extremely clear, and the black substance that had swallowed nearly half of his body seemed to have been pressed on the pause button.

Bound by some invisible force.

[Challenger Tips: The conversion is completed, the player body power synchronization rate is: 4.7%, Sacrificial Power is deducted: 32931 points, the balance is: 0 (this conversion is temporarily open, and the subsequent increase in the strength of the game body will gradually increase the cost of converting Sacrificial Power).]

When the four big words "Conversion Completed" exploded in Yu Chuan's mind.

He felt a scorching torrent shattering the dying nerve barrier. From the fracture of his missing right arm, the red-gold Gāng Qì spewed out like a volcanic eruption. Every stream of air carried the sound of metal forging.

The withered blood vessels suddenly boiled.

Then the Qi and Blood energy spurting from the heart intertwined around the broken arm like sparks, reshaping the bones, and the nerves were intertwined and reborn in the flames.

He inhaled subconsciously, and white air suddenly gathered in his mouth, and his body's recovery speed accelerated.

The black mist that was devouring the body suddenly let out a sharp hiss, shrinking crazily like a living creature being burned with a branding iron.

Yu Chuan looked down at his newborn palm. What was flowing under the skin was no longer blood, but liquid Gāng Qì.

At this time, every heartbeat can cause the nearby air to tremble.

Without the blockage of the black mist, the ice crystals blown in from the outside directly sublimated into dense steam in the high temperature dissipating from his body surface.

The Gāng Qì wrapped around the body rises, and the body completely turns into a furnace Roar at this moment.

He subconsciously clenched his fists and tried to control the operation of Gāng Qì.

Boom!

The red air current blooms like a lotus under your feet, and the gushing energy rises from the soles of your feet, covering your whole body in the burning red air current.

This is exactly the Gāng Qì Monster Soul characteristic that he often uses in Monster World.

He raised his head suddenly, and Gāng Qì, who appeared outside his body, became violent.

The black mist ahead surged violently, a dark substance that could melt all metals. In front of the violently gushing Gāng Qì, it actually shrank back as if encountering a natural enemy.

Seeing this scene, Yu Chuan, who had already reacted, immediately opened his eyes:

"Oh, shit, Gāng Qì!"

He subconsciously started analyzing and scanning, and the information presented in his mind made him stunned on the spot:

"Ah, Black Tide?!"
