The existence of the four districts of the Proving Ground, East, West, South, and North is not just to divide the population, but to compete in the region.

Let's start with the trial dungeon, the trial dungeon is random, no one knows what the dungeon they will enter in the next second, and maybe when they will run into a regional competition.

The so-called regional competition is to put all the trialists in the four districts into the same trial dungeon, usually everyone has the same quest task, and the trialists in the four districts have to complete the task through competition. Trialists in the first area to complete the quest can successfully complete the trial dungeon, and the trialists in the other three districts will be punished for failure.

Therefore, the entire proving ground is actually a "Colosseum" specially opened up for trialists to survive and compete.

The entire Proving Ground is divided into five areas, corresponding to five different levels of mission difficulty, including Trial Quests and Dungeon Quests. At this time, Yu Shu's fifth trial ground where they were located was also known as "Slum".

It is called "slums" because the living conditions here are the worst. To survive here, all the trialists do not have their own housing, and can only sleep in the open air. Most trialists sleep in makeshift tents, which can be purchased for only 50 Trial Points. But fortunately, there is no rainy season here, red fog is shrouded all day long, and the Ring of Trials has a storage function, so there is no big trouble.

"Only by guessing the trial quest correctly and completing it will you be able to move on to the next proving ground." Morini took another drink, his face flushed a little, "Look at your rings." ”

Yu Shu probed his consciousness into the ring, and sure enough, there were three question marks in the trial quest column, and it was dim in the quest column. This is because they haven't made it to the Trials quest yet.

"You should remember the tower in the center of the entire proving ground. It was in the center of the First Proving Ground, which we called the Ascending Tower. It is said that you can challenge the final mission there. When the final mission is completed, the Proving Ground will fulfill one of your wishes, including...... Get out of here. ”

In addition, Yu Shu and the others also learned that there are different service facilities in different test grounds.

For example, to upgrade weapons and the like, you have to go to the laboratory of the fourth trial ground and above, and you can't do it in the fifth trial ground. And in the third proving ground, there is a mercenary barracks, where mercenaries can be invited......

The trialists of the five regional trials with different difficulty areas are not inaccessible to each other, but they have to pay 100 trial points for each entry and exit, and the stay time is limited. If you go from the fifth trial ground to the third trial ground, you need to pay 300 trial points in the past, and you need to pay 300 trial points when you come back.

The Proving Ground itself is a fully functional city, so to speak. There are also various functional facilities such as supermarkets, shops, bars, restaurants, and some places even have dedicated staff.

The staff is all made up of trialists, in order to earn some trial points. Like the maid just now, she is actually a trialist, and she can get 200 trial points by serving here every month. The scarred wolf leader job is actually a part-time job.

The consumer life of all people here is completely dependent on the trial point. 1 trial point is almost equivalent to a hundred dollars in the real world, so as long as you are willing to spend money, you can buy anything.

The trial point is not only a guarantee of survival, but also the key to strengthening yourself. If you want to complete the trial mission, the first thing you need to do is to make sure that you can survive the trial dungeon.

The Proving Ground shop has a wide variety of weapons for sale, as well as a variety of languages, professional skills, entertainment, and even physical improvement.

In total, the Proving Ground divides human physical fitness into seven categories: strength, intelligence, faith, endurance, nerve reaction speed, immunity, and cell regeneration.

The degree of strength, that is, the degree of development of muscle tissue and the degree of strengthening of organs, strengthening it can make your whole body stronger and more explosive.

Nerve reaction speed, that is, the instantaneous reaction power and explosive power of nerves and muscles, in layman's terms, can make you react faster and move faster. Strengthened to a certain extent, you can even see the bullet track and dodge it, and you can run a hundred meters in three seconds.

Endurance, that is, the ability to resist blows, the endurance of life, the resistance and endurance to injury, the resistance of cells. The most intuitive example is that you can easily run a marathon after strengthening.

Intelligence, to put it bluntly, is to improve memory and thinking speed, it can make your brain run faster, but don't expect it to make your IQ higher, the utilization rate of the brain cannot be strengthened.

Faith, in fact, is more appropriately called mental power and willpower, which also includes perception, intuition, and neural endurance. Strengthening it can make the trialist's spirit more tenacious. Well, the most significant effect is that when someone else can use a psychic attack, you can reduce the degree of influence.

Immunity, resistance to viruses, bacteria, radiation environments. In short, it is to make the trialists not easy to get sick in various harsh environments.

Cell regeneration is the body's ability to repair instantly and for a long time. Strengthening it will allow you to recover faster and hold on longer.

Among them, the enhancement effects of immunity and cell regeneration are generally not easy to see, but they will increase the chances of survival of the trialist. After all, it is a great test of the body's adaptability to participating in trial dungeons in various environments all the time.

Most trialists will choose to strengthen their strength, stamina, and nerve reaction speed when they have limited trial points, because these three areas are the most beneficial and effective.

Of course, the main type of enhancement also needs to consider the life force of the trialist, so that it can achieve twice the result with half the effort. For example, if it is the vitality of the recovery class or the regeneration class, if you add it to strengthen the regeneration of cells, it is possible to become an immortal Xiaoqiang, even if it is not, it is a difficult opponent.

A normal adult's perfection values are 100, and 100 trial points can buy 10 enhancement points. In other words, 1,000 trial points can allow Yu Shu's physical fitness to reach twice that of ordinary people without opening their vital power.

All in all, the trial point is the key to the strength and survival of the trialist, and it is no wonder that the veteran trialists try their best to rob and cheat the newcomers.

In the proving ground, there are those who live in the profession, those who rob newcomers, those who waste their time, those who are drunk and dreaming of death, those who give up in despair, those who work hard, and those who are ignorant and know how to pass.

Different people choose different lifestyles.

There's a lot of stuff about the proving grounds. Morini spoke for most of the day before they gradually understood.

"Everything about the Proving Grounds, except for the memories we gave you when we first came here, we have to find all the secrets ourselves. All the answers and rules, some things you have figured out on your own, and some of which you have only heard. There may be rumors in between, and there may be truth, but unless they go that far, no one knows whether it's true or not. And even if it's true? First Proving Ground...... How many people can get to that point in this world of life and death? Anyway, I haven't heard of it, and I haven't seen it. Not to mention the final ascension to the Holy Tower. ”

"Once this road cannot continue, then it will usher in never-ending despair. If you can't enter the trial dungeon to get trial points, how easy is it to earn the trial points you need every day just by working? Without a source, live like the walking dead. By this time, most of the people were either tortured to death or chose to commit suicide, and only a small number were still gasping. ”

Speaking of this, Morini's tone was a little embarrassed, his eyes were full of despair, and he obviously didn't think he had a chance to get to that point.

Yu Shu finally understood why there were even people in this bar who were doing (love) in public, in this environment where life and death were not known tomorrow, many people had let go of the traditional moral and legal shackles, and enjoyed every inch of their time in life.

Yu Shu patted Morini on the shoulder: "Forget it, why worry about this kind of thing." I think it's not bad here, at least I'm much better off now than I used to be. ”

Morini stared at him blankly for a long time before he said, "Crazy." Do you know? Anyone who says he likes this place either dies early or becomes very powerful. ”

"Then I must be the latter." Yu Shu replied with a smile.

Tian Yong drank the wine, turned his head and asked, "Is it too late for me to say now?" ”

"What do you say?" Everyone gave him a tacit look.

Tian Yong continued to drink depressedly.
