[Current Location: Day of Revival]

[Level: One]

[Difficulty: Trial]

[Task 1: Survive ten days.]

[Task 2: Persevere for ten days.]

[Description: In the new era, steam technology has been widely applied. Steam behemoths, constructed from gears, pistons, and propellers, ascend the stage of history.

Airships, steamboats, submarines, robots, cities in the sky…

However, the transcendent has not vanished, enigmatism has not disappeared, and ancient gods have awakened from the sea abyss, unleashing their wrath upon humanity.

This is the final glimmer of civilization sparkling in the abyss.]

[Friendly Reminder: Abyss Descent Trial, completing any task allows escape.]

In the sky, airships covered in leather, with their metal frames peeking through the gaps and equipped with numerous propellers, sailed through the clouds.

The rolling, thick smoke they released nearly blotted out the sky, obscuring the sun’s rays.

Under the shadow of the smoke, neatly arranged houses with pointed roofs formed an orderly and bustling city.

On the stone-paved roads, there were not only horse carriages speeding along but also metal automobiles.

There were also bulky robots, nearly two stories tall and covered in iron plates, lumbering forward under the control of their pilots.

The exhaust they emitted drifted upward, mingling with the thick smoke from the airships.

Looking further out towards the nearby coast, a great number of metal ships were docked at the port.

Purple and white Mechas stood atop the rooftops, their visors reflecting these scenes.

“Steam World…”

Jiang Chen gazed at these cumbersome machines without any disdain.

Although any modern machinery brought over from Planet Blue Star could easily surpass these creations technologically…

But this was the abyss.

Just like the description of the trial scenario indicated, this place was not only home to steam technology but also to transcendent powers and even Age-Old deities.

As a result, these steam machines also possessed a hint of Enigmatism, wielding power far beyond their construction, even integrating into the transcendent system.

To put it simply—

They were the product of a merger between technology and the unknown.

The modules produced by this type of abyss carbon copy also came with similar effects.

However, Jiang Chen wasn’t concerned with these at the moment.

What interested him was “the background”.

In typical circumstances, abyss carbon copies, including the basic trials, seemed to be derived from snapshots of the world after the collapse of civilization, evolving into the Age-Old Shadow.

The Abyss Descent Trial was wholly different.

Looking down from the high-rise, one could clearly see figures clad in “different and wondrous attires” walking down the streets or conversing at the roadside—

The civilization here had not yet perished, but was on the eve of a world-ending calamity.

This moment was the last afterglow of civilization!

“Two tasks, both have a time limit of ten days, yet the keywords are not the same.”

“One is to survive, the other is to endure.”

“The former refers only to the individual mecha pilot, regardless of what happens to the trial world, as long as one is alive, the task is deemed completed.”

“The latter represents the civilization of the trial world.”

“After ten days, if the civilization of the trial world still retains the last spark of life, the task is considered completed.”

Jiang Chen had done his homework in advance.

He knew fully well the tasks and settings of the Abyss Descent Trial.

He also knew that the trial world had some hidden tasks that appeared randomly. Completing those would grant him generous immediate rewards.

Moreover, one could also communicate with the civilization within the trial world to acquire knowledge and power.

The Teleportation Array used by the alliance’s Xuntian City was obtained by a high rank mecha pilot from the blueprints found in a Magic World.

“If regular Age-Old Shadows are just about grinding through hordes of enemies to defeat the abyss leaders, with rewards essentially obtained through combat…”

“Then the Abyss Descent Trial is like an open-world sandbox, filled with randomly generated question marks…”

Jiang Chen naturally wanted to achieve a high evaluation and gain substantial profits in the Abyss Descent Trial.However, it’s not that simple.

Facing a disaster capable of destroying civilization, surviving for ten days was one thing, but to continue the torch of civilization was quite complex.

To meet the requirements, just leaving behind a pair of “Adam and Eve” was certainly not enough.

Only with a sufficient population base, could a race continue to thrive.

Moreover, a civilization needed not just life, but also to preserve a certain level of knowledge, without too many gaps…

Jiang Chen stood on the rooftop, organizing his thoughts.

This suit of purple and white mecha drew the attention of the pedestrians below.

Compared with the bloated robots on the street, the model Zero Mecha, modified and fortified with modules, appeared slim and symmetrical, its surfaces adorned with patterns that exuded an enigmatic aura.

Just the appearance alone was very eye-catching.

It looked multiple grades higher.

The people couldn’t help but stop in their tracks, pointing at the mecha and murmuring among themselves, their eyes filled with curiosity. They gathered into a crowd, blocking the road.

A carriage stalled by the crowd made the tailcoat-wearing gentleman inside slightly frown, following the people’s gazes, his eyes lit up as well, caught by the allure of the mecha.

He stood up, took his cane, and tapped the air in front of him.

The next moment, his figure flickered, and he appeared directly on the rooftop, standing before the purple and white mecha.

“kdsahjk…”

Jiang Chen had his train of thought interrupted and turned his head.

He then saw the gentleman in the tailcoat, speaking enthusiastically about something, but he couldn’t understand a word.

He took out the [External Translation Device] he had prepared in advance and attached it to the side of the mecha’s shoulder.

The gentleman’s words were quickly translated into a language he could understand.

“…The design of this mecha is streamlined and handsome, far better looking than those bulky contraptions!”

“I wonder how far your invention has progressed. I could fund your research…”

Turns out he was interested in his mecha.

Jiang Chen came to a realization and shook his head with a chuckle.

“Even if I could accept your funding… You no longer have the time.”

“What do you mean?”

The voice had been converted into the language of this world by the translation device.

The gentleman in the tailcoat still couldn’t grasp the meaning behind his words.

Just then, a loud bang drew everyone’s attention.

The people on the street followed the sound, but their line of sight was blocked by houses, instinctively raising their heads.

Screams erupted.

They saw thousands of huge tentacles, each incredibly thick and covered with slimy fluid and suckers, strike the sky like lightning, firmly ensnaring the steam airships flying overhead.

And then… they flung them downward.

The steam airships, like giants beasts of the sky, were utterly powerless against such monumental force, falling uncontrollably, crashing into the city!

Boom!

Explosions, hurricanes, flames, smoke, and dust.

Just a moment ago, the thriving civilization seemed to be hit by a strong wind.

The next, it began to crumble.

The people on the street had no idea what was happening; no longer concerned about the purple and white mecha, they either screamed and dodged or stood trembling with fear.

Only the gentleman in the tailcoat on the rooftop could see what was happening far out at sea: countless tentacles breaking through the surface, pulling airships down, dragging iron giants like ships into the depths of the sea abyss.

What in the world was that?

The gentleman’s scalp tingled as an innate fear from the depths of his soul made him shiver uncontrollably.

At this moment, the purple and white mecha beside him spoke again, drawing back his attention.

“Welcome to the end.”

“I’m from beyond, here to preserve the seeds of civilization. You may call me…”

“Tian Qi.”
