[Hint: You have reached the pinnacle of Bronze Age life form]

[Spirit: 10+1→13+1]

[Charm: 12+3→15+3]

"The unique title's attributes are actually added to its essence."

Jiang He thought to himself that Beelzebub's title was not of significant use at the moment, but it would be crucial when he was promoted to the Hero rank in the future.

At this moment, the item bag has undergone earth-shattering changes. The original eight cubic meters of space has greatly expanded, and its size is equivalent to half of Rock Town. The ground is no different from the yellowish-brown soil of the Gobi Desert, and the surrounding walls and dome are pitch black. The original buildings have been completely corroded away.

"But it is still impossible to transport living things across the world."

Jiang He jumped into the underground of the honeycomb and hurriedly carried away the company's various equipment. These things were not living things that could be taken away, and his Holy Temple Rock Town had plenty of space.

Five hundred bionic robots have moved in. They have human-like appearances and thinking abilities, and are under the unified command and dispatch of Sugon Intelligence.

[Hint: Your main quest is complete]

……

at the same time.

Both of them, atop the Gobi Desert cliffs, received a notification from the Origin, indicating that the main quest to stop the demon Beelzebub from destroying Rock Town had failed.

Having mentally prepared himself, Ink Painting remained calm. He had no intention of giving up his player status. The mission to punish the world was difficult and unrewarding, but it didn't mean certain death. Moreover, this mission wasn't without its rewards; the newly acquired Dawn Corporation anthropomorphic technology would make the mechanisms more flexible.

Killer 007's eyes flickered uncertainly. Under normal circumstances, he would try to stop that guy no matter what, but the green zombies, who were known for their defense, were killed instantly by a single shot. Rather than die, he might as well go and punish the world and take a gamble.

"We won't be teleported to the same punishment world, will we?" Killer 007 narrowed his eyes.

Ink Painting spread his hands and said, "Otherwise, why do you think I stopped? You and I probably aren't worth Origin opening teleportation separately."

As soon as the words were spoken, the punishment teleportation of the Origin Game began, provided that the two refused to give up their qualifications.

On the other side, Jiang He, having finished looting, also chose to return to the mission.

Chapter 190, World Mission: Embers Still Burning, Begins

The present location is the South China Sea of ​​the Great Xia Dynasty.

Anping Island forest.

Borderlands, Vast Plains, Yuwang City

Before dawn, Jiang He returned to the campfire in the northern part of the city.

[Task Name: Western Town]

[Main quest completed]

[Mission rewards have been issued: ① 300 game coins and experience points ② Targeted rare item *1]

[Mission Rating S+: 250% bonus to game currency and experience points]

[Note: You have reached LV9, gained one free attribute point and one skill point, your energy has increased by 100, and your inventory has increased by 1 cubic meter.]

Jiang He allocated his free attribute points to Strength and his skill points to Spear Technique.

[Player Level: LV9 (215/900)]

[Strength: 12+1→13+1]

[Spear Mastery: LV9→LV10 (Deals 50% extra damage when using spear-type weapons)]

[Energy Value: 3901→4001]

[Game Coins: 2266]

[Item Pouch: Small Sanctuary - Rock Town]

After completing the strength enhancement, Jiang He received the rare-level item as a reward for the mission.

[Name: Steadfast Armor]

[Category: Armor]

[Quality: Rare]

[Effect ①: Intermediate Durability/Intermediate Toughness]

[Effect 2: Stamina recovery speed increased by 20%]

[Effect 3: Keen Hunting - Increases vision and sense of smell by 20%]

[Note: The Hunter's Path to Balance]

"That's good, but we don't need it."

Jiang He examined the jet-black armor. It was dispensable to him. Its defensive strength was barely on par with the initial energy armor, and the overall boost when activating the Sword Scale Snail Dragon Armor was far superior. Although it was a hunter's specialty armor, it could no longer keep up with his strength. Only his sense of smell could be considered a supplement, but it was not very meaningful.

"Give it to Old Black, newbie players need help."

At dawn, all of Shuguang Company's production and maintenance equipment were moved out.

The three animal companions gathered around the campfire.

"Following the Bird Legion, Mountain Ghost Legion, Evil Fiend Legion, and Goat Legion, we now have the Dawn Legion."

Five hundred bionic robots stood in a line to be inspected by three envoys.

Jiang He briefly introduced the situation of this derivative mission, and then said: "Each of them has a complete script setting. They have no soul, but they have a virtual personality and can take on local command work. My idea is to let these Dawn People act as junior officers."

Wuhe raised his hand and advised, "Boss, the Evil Fiend soldiers also have basic intelligence. I think at least half of the junior officer positions should be reserved for the Evil Fiend Legion. Otherwise, the Dawn People will be in an absolute advantage and lose their checks and balances. If we keep excluding the Evil Fiend soldiers, it will only affect our expansion efficiency in the end."

Jiang He nodded. The decision-making body of Yuwang City consisted of only four core members, including himself, and they could basically decide the general direction in a small meeting.

"What do Lao Hei and Zhuang Ya think?"

Old Hei was busy wiping his newly acquired jet-black armor when he heard this and looked up, saying, "To resolve the fundamental differences between the two legions, we still need to find a way to improve the intelligence of the Evil Fiend soldiers. If we are pursuing efficiency, then it is not unreasonable for the Dawn People to take the lead. If we also want to maintain stability, the Evil Fiends definitely need to have their own voice."

“Zhuang Ya”.

"I don't quite understand."

"Then let's listen to Wuhe's opinion on this matter."

Jiang He made the decision and then moved on to the next topic.

"Four days later, I plan to use the world invitation letter given by Chu Fuqiang of the Executive Bureau. The target world is likely to see a Bronze Age world war in the future, so it is worth planning ahead. The specific time of the war is yet to be determined. The second issue is how many troops to send along."

Wuhega said, "Boss, let's go all in and take him down."

Old Hei couldn't help but say, "From a global and long-term perspective, our biggest advantage is that we control a border, so expanding the border is the top priority, and this cannot be shaken."

"Secondly, the situation in the target world is largely unknown. If we suffer heavy losses and lose the Dawn People and the Evil People, the speed of border expansion will be halved. We will have to start accumulating time and energy again. If we are slow in one step, we will be slow in every step. Most importantly, the results of the expansion are linked to Xiao He's passive stacking. We must not be careless."

"I think we shouldn't take any risks, or rather, we don't need to take any risks at all. Besides, this is just a preliminary operation, and we should focus on exploration, development, and intelligence gathering."

Jiang He pondered for a moment. It was clear that Wu He was more radical on the issue of war, while Lao Hei tended to be more cautious. At this time, the voice of a third party was particularly important.

“Zhuang Ya”.

"I didn't understand," Zhuang Ya answered honestly. Although she didn't quite understand, she remained sincere. As a core member, she knew that her opinions could influence Orochi, and she couldn't speak casually on such a serious matter.

After a moment's thought, Jiang He decided, "Let's continue to focus on expanding the borders. For this world mission, we'll bring one hundred Dawners. I can accept the complete annihilation of these Dawners."

Without objection, the second resolution was passed.

"The third item on the agenda is that I seized a set of Mohist mechanical techniques. Wuhe and Lao Hei, which of you two is interested?"

"Give it to Second Brother."

"The third brother is still the smarter one."

"Second brother, I'm really not good at civil engineering and machinery."

"How about letting the fourth one... never mind, I'll do it."

Old Black stepped forward and snatched away the Mohist legacy.

Zhuang Ya let out a soft breath. She had already had enough classes lately, and she still hadn't mastered the Snake Sword Technique.

Jiang He clapped his hands: "Meeting adjourned, dismissed."

Wuhe took flight and immediately arranged for the Dawn People to participate in the pioneering work. Lao Hei stayed on the spot and flipped through the Mohist legacy, the initial part of which was somewhat similar to building blocks.

As for Zhuang Ya, she turned into a little white snake that crawled onto his neck to sleep. Jiang He knew that this guy wanted to slack off, but he didn't want to go to class either, so he simply ignored her.

The new legions are in place, the hunting teams have expanded to two and are much more efficient, and trade with the termite colonies has stabilized.

Jiang He entered the central tower and went to the top pavilion. He sat cross-legged and practiced the Withering and Flourishing Heart Sutra. Because of the Dissolving Passive that enhanced his digestive ability, he ate all the thousands of ginseng roots in one go and gained a lot of vitality.

Four days later, the seventh, eighth, and ninth meridians were opened one after another, and the power of ginseng was exhausted.

[Energy Value: 4001→4301]

[Rare Wither: LV8→LV17, deals 27% additional wither damage]

Jiang He invested 500 game coins to enhance the Tear Gem to +5, and then inlaid it into the Eternal Regret Dragon Spear.

[Gemstone Inlay - Tear: Deals 18% additional Tear damage]

All remaining game currency was invested in the Withering Trait, costing a total of 1700.

[Rare Wither: LV17→LV34, deals 44% additional wither damage]

[Game Coins: 66]

"There are still three serious ones left."

At the top of the tower, Jiang He silently assessed the situation. He had a premonition that when he advanced to the upper-grade martial artist level, he would be able to master the Transformation Realm. He was only one thin membrane away from that level. Now, without the help of ginseng, it was estimated that it would take about a hundred days to open up the three main meridians. The increase in his spiritual value extended the upper limit of his daily cultivation time.

Four days later, the cooldown for world quests ended.

Wuhe and Laohei arrived at the tower pavilion. Jiang He stuffed a hundred Dawn People into the small sanctuary, Rock Town. These robots were not living beings and could be carried around.

"You three get ready, I'm starting."

"clear."

"Roger that, boss."

"it is good."

Jiang He took out the World Invitation and then opened the player panel. If derivative quests are like relaxing trips, then world quests require serious attention.

The cutscenes appeared as usual.

Jiang He saw a gloomy, dark sky and a desolate wasteland. The black soil was clearly distinct from the normal ground. Nine fortresses stood on the earth, and various human settlements were scattered around. Unexplained roars echoed in his ears.

[In the year 2XXX AD, an irreversible catastrophe swept across the world. The sky was plunged into darkness, wild beasts ravaged the land, order collapsed, and the flame of civilization was extinguished several times. Humanity struggled to survive.]

[Twenty years after the cataclysm, under the guidance of the Navigators, humanity discovered that the beasts abhorred silver mines. Thus, they forged the first Silver Fortress to defend against the beasts' attacks. Various human organizations sprang up across the wasteland, and the flame of civilization was rekindled.]

[But this period of peace was short-lived. A significant portion of the land was eroded by darkness, transforming into permanent dark soil. Dark creatures emerged from this dark soil and, along with wild beasts, began to encroach upon humanity's living space.]

[Thirty years after the cataclysm, the Navigator, after overcoming countless hardships, slayed a dominant creature among the wild beasts, but tragically perished himself. His offspring brought back the spark of hope—the alien blood and the wasteland remains.]

[By hunting wild beasts, humans gained awakened powers through their unique bloodlines. Using the remains of these beasts, and combining them with technology from the old era, humans created new bio-mechanical armor.]

[From then on, humanity had room to resist the encroachment, the flames of war were rekindled, eight fortresses were built one after another, and together with the original Silver City, they formed a fortress alliance, which became the foundation of the race, and the navigator's offspring were honored as nominal emperors.]

[The following are exclusive tips for executives]

[Superpowered individuals are divided into four levels: Lower, Middle, Upper, and Dominator. The Dominator level is equivalent to a Silver Being, but due to the darkness and the lack of a universal body, Silver Beings in this world cannot undergo physical transformation and energy transformation, possessing only a Silver Will. Their average combat power is lower, but the difficulty of advancement is reduced.]

[Special Ability Sequence List: 1-128]

[Lower-level abilities: 1-32]

[Mid-level Ability: 33-64]

[Superior Ability: 65-96]

[Domination Ability: 97-128]

[Note: This is a unique Dominant-level ability. Before the possessor dies, no other qualified higher-level ability users can advance to the next level (currently full).]

[Hint: Types of dark creatures: Vampires, Werewolves, Trolls, Spider Demons]

[Task Name: Embers Still Burning]

[Mission Type: Single-player World Exploration]

[Main Quest: Become the Fortress Chief, Hunt Dark Creatures/Wild Beasts (0/50)]
