24 Chapter 24: Trial Instances! Everyone Joins the Army!
Translator: 549690339
The bus drove out of Chang’an City.
Over the course of more than three hundred years, successive generations of professionists have expelled a multitude of wild beasts and monsters.
They established towns and gathering points around the cities, allowing ordinary people to venture outside and live.
Only wild areas far from the cities or deep in the mountains were swarming with high-level monsters.
However, ordinary people and professionists could not venture too far from the cities.
The reason was simple, even to this day, spatial rifts would occasionally appear in the wilderness.
Various monsters, beasts, and even different races, would exploit these rifts and step onto the Blue Star to engage in a massacre of humans.
Only cities, and their surroundings, could provide a level of safety.
All the way, the newly awakened students from Class Twelve were discussing excitedly, and many were looking out of the windows.
After all,
For more than a decade, this was their first time leaving Chang’an City.
Over an hour later, they finally reached their destination.
A small town named Weihe Town, situated beside the surging Wei River.
The adjacent forest to the town was guarded by armed police.
Once the identities and bus documents were checked, they were waved through.
On the bus, Chen Xiao looked at the soldiers outside the window and suddenly said, “Brother Cheng, after I graduate from college, I want to join the army!”
Zheng Cheng was not surprised.
In a world like this, nearly every man, every professionist, would entertain the thought of joining the army.
National militarization!
Resist the onslaught of beasts and different races, fighting for a glimmer of survival for mankind.
Even for professionists, after reaching level 30, they were obliged to serve for two years either in Two World Mountain, or in realms like the Chasm or Demon Territory.
This wasn’t just a national requirement, but also the duty of everyone within the human race!
Otherwise…
If any tribe were to breach the defensive line, the entire human world would be wiped out!
“Yes! I’ll go too!”
“I also want to go!”
Cai Kun and Zhang Ping’an said in succession.
“My dad died at Two World Mountain. I want to avenge him!”
“My dad didn’t go there, but my uncle was blinded in one eye by the different races in the Chasm, which is why he was discharged…”
“My dad also sacrificed himself at Two World Mountain, and his dying wish was for me to become a professionist…”
For a moment, all the students on the bus were discussing this topic.
Quickly, Gao Yang stood up and said, “Students, you are all still young. There will be time to serve in the army after you graduate from vocational college.”
“Only after gaining skills and leveling up in vocational colleges can you better guard our planet on the battlefield!”
“Okay, we have arrived at the Trial Dungeon. Take full advantage of this hard-earned opportunity!”
With Gao Yang’s encouragement, all the new professionists on the bus started to exit the vehicle.
“Wow… is this a Dungeon?”
“There are so many people…”
“Make way, let me see…”
Following the crowd, Zheng Cheng also got off the bus.
His eyes suddenly brightened.
In front of him stood a swirling purple gate nearly twice as tall as a man.
The swirling gate slowly spun around, exuding an indescribable aura.
This was the entrance to a Dungeon!
Dungeons were a game mechanic born out of the fusion of this world and others.
They would spawn randomly on some places of the map.
These dungeons had level restrictions, but no entry limits, allowing unlimited access.
Professionists, as long as they were willing to spend time and make an effort, could always farm the equipment or materials they desired from the dungeons.
With the emergence of dungeons, villages, towns, and even cities formed around these dungeon entrances.
Lives based on Dungeons!
The Weihe Town was a place like this.
Gao Yang led the students towards the Dungeon entrance.
“Students, there are three dungeons around Weihe Town.”
“They are the LV30 Wei River Dragon Palace Ruins, the LV10 Crimson Altar.”
“And, the LV5 Fire Mouse Nest we are about to challenge, the Trial Dungeon.”
A Fire Mouse Nest?
Hearing the headteacher saying this, Zheng Cheng felt a sudden movement in his heart.
No wonder.
The principal had mentioned in the group chat, to thank Yao Zhixue.
This Trial Dungeon was prepared solely with Yao Zhixue in mind!
The reason was simple.
Although he did not know Yao Zhixue’s specific class, their battle against the Fallen Ones last time revealed that it was a frost-based class.
And frost, being a superior form of the water attribute, was capable of restraining the fire attribute.
Their own group from Class Twelve, only existed as a foil for Yao Zhixue’s training.
Moreover, the encounter with the Night Watch last time led Zheng Cheng to be completely sure that Yao Zhixue had already joined the Night Watch.
“Hey! Chen Xiao!”
Suddenly, someone approached and said, “Our team is missing a Tank, you can join.”
Cai Kun looked at him cautiously, “Damn! It’s Chen Zixiong from Class One. His awakened class is a six-star Wind Archer!”
“He has high attack power, second only to Yao Zhixue and Liang Feifan.”
As the only one in the twelfth class to awaken the five-star MT class of the Earth Knight, Chen Xiao was undoubtedly a hot commodity amongst the teams.
If he were willing to join other teams, their success rate at conquering the dungeon would at least increase by 30 percent!
Chen Xiao shook his head, “I have friends, do you want to join us?”
Chen Zixiong sneered, “Them? Only three stars, do they even deserve to be led by me?”
“Chen Xiao, my invitation to you is giving you face. With you joining us, we can attempt the nightmare difficulty…”
Chen Xiao took a deep breath, shook his head and said, “Nevermind, I’d rather stay with my friends.”
“Damn!” Chen Zixiong cursed under his breath, “Doesn’t appreciate my favor…”
With that, he turned around and left in a huff, seeing this, other teams gave up on the idea of inviting Chen Xiao.
“Damn! Brother Xiao! No, no, no, Lord Xiao! You really are my Lord Xiao!”
Cai Kun immediately threw himself onto Chen Xiao, hugging his neck and laughing loudly.
Chen Xiao threw him to the ground with a counter move, “I did this completely for Brother Cheng, now get off!”
“I know, I know, hahaha…”
Zheng Cheng also shook his head, patted Chen Xiao’s shoulder and said, “Thanks, bro.”
“We’re brothers, why bother with formalities?”
At this moment, a few more people approached.
Zheng Cheng’s eyes moved slightly. Were they…?
“Yao Zhixue!”
“And Liang Feifan!”
“Who are those few?”
“Wow! That lady is so pretty, so cool!”
“Are Yao Zhixue and Liang Feifan forming a team?”
“I don’t know…”
He recognized the people who had arrived.
Yao Zhixue, Liang Feifan, and… Zhao Yunxiao!
“Zhixue, Captain Zhao has also advised you to join my team, so please don’t refuse, okay?”
Liang Feifan shamelessly moved closer, “We’re about to become colleagues, and we may even become a team later, try to give me some face.”
Yao Zhixue responded indifferently, “I have said, I will not join your team.”
As she was speaking, Yao Zhixue also saw Zheng Cheng.
Her usually placid eyes suddenly flickered with ripples.
