Volume 1: The Supreme Mandate of Heaven Chapter 14: What I Saw and Heard (II)
Standing in the room and looking at the passage, it seems to be bottomless. But in fact, from beginning to end, Chen Sheng had only taken three steps before leaving the passage and standing in the headquarters area of the Infinite God Domain. Looking back, I saw that I was standing in front of the gate of a large residential community similar to the "XX Garden" and "XX Famous Residence" in reality. However, the road from the main entrance of the community to the residential buildings is shrouded in a thick gray fog, and it is completely impossible to peek through this gray fog to find out which competitor lives in which unit.
In front of the community gate, there is a road that is wide enough to accommodate four Dongfeng trucks running side by side. Although the road is not densely populated, it is by no means sparse. These people come and go, and their steps are hurried. Or they are about to leave the headquarters of the Divine Domain and go back to their private dúlì room to rest; Or like Chen Sheng, he had just left the room and was walking out quickly.
Every pedestrian is shrouded in a layer of gray mist. No matter how good your eyesight is, you will never be able to see the true face of these passers-by. Although Chen Sheng didn't feel anything, he thought about it, and he must be the same at this moment. Obviously, this is a special protection measure set up by the Infinite God Domain for competitors.
Put your hands behind your back and pace along the road. Chen Sheng looked up as he walked, only to see a large area of dim sky similar to dusk overhead. The sky is high, so there won't be any oppression. But it always feels very unnatural and weird. Looking far away, but I can't see the boundary of space, it is obvious that the area of the Infinite God Domain is huge, and it is even more beyond imagination.
The road has come to an end in a short time. At the end is a huge stone arch, even more magnificent than the famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Walked out of the gatehouse and stopped, looked around, and saw that in front of me was a wide square with an area similar to the ** square. In the center of the square, there are several other round arches that rise into the sky and constantly reveal a blue spot of light like ripples. A number of people were lining up to enter the archway.
The skull tattoo was prompted in time. Chen Sheng immediately understood the role of these arches. Their official name is "Space-Time Portal". It is through these portals that competitors enter different planes to perform various tasks. Each competitor who enters within 10 meters of the portal will automatically enter the protected state. At this time, no one can attack the competitors who are about to enter the plane. It should not be hindered either.
Every time a competitor returns from the mission Shijie, he or she will receive a ten-day vacation based on the base time within the Infinite God Domain. After the end of the holiday, you can pay for Universal Points and Elemental Gems to extend your stay. However, it cannot exceed a maximum of twenty days. When the deadline is reached, the competitor must enter the space-time gate and go to the quest Shijie. Those who resist will be killed.
Around the square, there are a total of five stone arches. Behind each arch is a classified area of the Infinite God Domain. The arch that Chen Sheng just walked out of belongs to the living area. In addition, there are athletic areas, commercial areas, entertainment areas, and industrial areas. The role of living quarters needs no further explanation. The Arena is a place for competitors to compete against each other and resolve conflicts and grievances.
Chen Sheng was originally very interested in this, so he went in and walked around, wanting to see if there was anything worth making his own move. But the results were very disappointing. There are quite a few people in the ring in the arena. Each other also played very lively. But these people either use bizarre supernatural abilities, magic illusions, or directly use firearms against shè, and they don't even have a martial artist.
Although in terms of direct lethality and destructive power, they may not be weaker than Chen Sheng, but for these guys who don't even know what "martial arts" are, Chen Sheng is indeed indeed, and he can't even raise the slightest interest, let alone fight with them.
Leaving the competition area, Chen Sheng went to the industrial area for another walk. It is divided into three small areas. One area is the factory and research room, where the competitors can research, manufacture, and produce all kinds of machinery and equipment for themselves. The other area is dedicated to Competitors repairing or strengthening their weaponry. Most of these equipment are obtained from certain magic-based tasks, so the Liliang of technology has no effect on them. In the third area, there are various Dan furnaces for those competitors related to Xianxia to refine medicine or refining weapons.
The entertainment area, as the name suggests, is a place for physically and mentally exhausted competitors to relax and readjust after leaving the brutal task of shijie. There are various entertainment facilities such as parks, amusement parks, casinos, pubs, restaurants, nightclubs, dance halls, karaoke, and spas. It's not free, but it's inexpensive. A luxurious and delicious dinner at a restaurant equivalent to a Michelin star is just 30 points. In other words, Chen Sheng casually killed a swordsman, and he had earned enough for this meal, even if it was used to greet the President of the United States, it would not look shabby.
Zuihou is the business district. It is also subdivided into three areas. The first is the auction area. If a competitor obtains some rare items in the quest shijie, but they can't use them themselves, they can store them in the auction room and conduct regular centralized auctions. However, depending on the amount of the transaction, the auction house will take a certain amount of commission. Second, there are a variety of large and small shops in the commercial area.
The store of the Infinite God Domain, of course, serves mainly competitors. And what do competitors need most? Weapons and equipment, of course. In the Infinity Realm, all equipment and weapons have their own level. The lowest level is the whiteboard, followed by the blue sè, then the bright gold, then the dark gold, then the green sè suit, and the zuihou is the special plot. Each grade is divided into upper, middle and lower grades.
For example, Shijie's Heavenly Sword in "Legend of the Son of Heaven" is a top-level special plot item. Normally, the competitors of the "Infinite God Domain" did not have any possibility of obtaining this Son of Heaven Divine Weapon at all. In "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" Shijie, the "Seven Cultivation Swords", which is composed of seven fairy swords, and must be gathered to exert the strongest power, belongs to the typical top-grade green sè set items.
Dark gold items must be those with a name and a surname, and have a unique xìng, to be eligible for this category. For example, Xiao Li Flying Knife, Cadre Mo Evil, Demon Knife Village Zheng and so on. In Dungeons & Dragons, Shijie, the various magical armor and weapons cast by the Dark Jīng Spirit are only classified as Bright Gold because they are mass-produced.
Special Story Items, Green Sè Set Items, Dark Gold Items, and Bright Gold Items are not available for sale in the Shop. There are occasional ones in the auction house, but they are as rare as giant pandas, and they can't be high-quality goods. As a result, most of the items sold in the store are mostly whiteboards and blue sè equipment.
For example, Chen Sheng's Yajiao Gun and Qianjun Dang, although this gun and stick are good, because they have not been equipped with any supernatural abilities, they belong to the most basic white weapons. And the Qin State Tiger Talisman, an item with supernatural liliang, can be classified as a blue sè item.
Of course, even if you are a competitor, you can't think about fighting and killing all day long. Other aspects of life, such as food, clothing, shelter and transportation, are also very important. Therefore, in addition to weapons and equipment, there are many other shopping malls in the commercial area, which specialize in selling rì general stores.
Soap, towels, toothbrushes, biscuits, drinks, canned instant noodles, underwear, outerwear, windbreakers, leather coats, bicycles, motorcycles, electric cars, computers, mobile phones, radio stations, everything. As long as you can afford it, you can even buy an aircraft carrier or a nuclear bomb.
Of course, the sale of high-power lethal weapons requires the identity and authority of the competitor. For example, Chen Sheng is now a one-star competitor, and at this level of authority, he can only buy all kinds of light weapons at most. Even heavy machine guns can't be bought. If you want to buy an F16 fighter, then he must at least be upgraded to five stars or more.
In addition, the goods sold must be based on the premise that they actually exist in the actual shijie. For example, in reality Shijie has tanks and airplanes, but there are absolutely no Gundams and Zagu. So the former can be sold, and the latter is completely free to talk about.
Want to buy a Sengoku Bronze Sword to play as a Sengoku samurai? No problem. Want to buy a laser sword and play as a Jedi? Dream on. There are many things such as Tianshan Snow Lotus, humanoid He Shou Wu and so on, and there are many in pharmacies. But after eating it, you can beautify your face at most. What immediately increases the strength of a few jiazi, and the gray hair immediately turns black and other miraculous effects? That's definitely not the case.
The secret of "Yijin Sutra"? There are also here. However, the content recorded in it is exactly the same as the ones placed in the tourist shops in the Shaolin Temple Scenic Area for tourists to buy back as souvenirs. Want to practice peerless martial arts based on this? Just don't have that kind of white dream, wake up early.
Of course, that's not to say that you can't buy surreal items in the business district, where there are many competitors setting up stalls on both sides of the road. The vast majority of the items they sell are surreal. It's all things that the competitors get in the task shijie, and they don't use it themselves, and they don't have enough value to send to the auction house. The prices are all on the expensive side, and objectively evaluated, these items are usually quite frivolous.
For example: A one-ring spell "Magic Missile" scroll that Shijie got back from "Dungeons & Dragons" actually asked for 300 universal points. But buy a pistol in the store, at most 30 universal points. Submachine guns and assault rifles are only about 50 universal points. The effect is similar and the price is very different, and fools know what to choose.
