Chapter 1: Floating City
Chapter 1: Floating City
On this day, Floating City is not destined to be peaceful.
Floating City, as the name suggests, is a city that floats in the sky. No one knows where it floats, surrounded by a bright starry sky, surrounded by fog below, and nothing can be seen, but it is like a fairyland.
The city is large and has everything you need, most notably the manors and castles. As a gathering place for the Terminators, in the Salvation Space, it is already the highest level at present. As for the challengers, I'm afraid no one knows where they are, what tasks they are performing, and how many of them there are before they are promoted to challengers.
At least on the surface, the Terminator is already the final realm of the Chosen One. At the Terminator realm, there are almost no lone wanderers, most of them have teams, and each team will have a private estate. And these manors can completely change the style according to the owner's thoughts, so the floating city is full of large and small manors of various styles.
When it comes to the realm of the Terminator, the authority naturally rises to an extremely high level, and the system will not even interfere with the freedom of everyone.
For example, the Terminator doesn't want to go back to the real world, and can stay in Floating City for as long as they want, without any restrictions. For example, the Terminator is free to form forces, and as long as you have the ability, the system will not care even if you unite all the Terminators. But no one has been able to do this so far.
Therefore, the shape of the floating city is very complex, and all kinds of large and small forces are scattered in all corners. Of course, the four most powerful forces among them are still unshakable by the others, and they are the monarchs and emperors, the four powerhouses.
The manor area of these four powerhouses is also extraordinarily large, they are located in the four directions of southeast, south, north, and west, and they are also the four largest forces among the terminators.
Dongfang is the location of the Shadow Legion of the Hidden King, and after a long period of development, the number of the Shadow Legion has reached the scale of 100 people, and there are several large and small teams, the most powerful of which is of course the Shadow Team of the Hidden King. In the East, in addition to the Shadow Legion, the more powerful Yamato Soul is Hattori Hanzo, who initially showed signs of joining forces with the Shadow Legion, but recently, the two sides have not been so close.
The reason is simple, the Yamato soul has already affected the dominance of the Hidden Monarch in the East. In addition, there are seven or eight large and small forces, but these forces are now basically controlled by the Phantom Legion and the Yamato Spirit, so the pattern in the East is the most complicated.
The rest of the country is also chaotic, and the gods in the north, led by the demon lord Freya, are not having a good time at the moment, and that's because although the neighbors Hidden Jun and Hattori Hanzo are not in harmony, they are indeed very united when they join forces to deal with her. And although the war king of the south was allied with Freya at the beginning, he now has maintained neutrality for some reason.
As for the evil emperor in the west and the god killer organization in his hands, he has indeed been playing small tricks, trying to provoke a full-scale battle between the other three powers, the evil emperor's methods are very obscure, it is difficult for people to find a handle, and the effect is also very good, at least the war king and Freya are inseparable from him, but Freya can't find any evidence. In particular, the evil emperor's team is evil and secretive, and most likes to cause trouble for others in the game world.
As for the war king in the south, this guy really remains neutral, and as long as it has nothing to do with him, he always keeps a blind eye to any disputes. However, no one will underestimate the strength of the War King, and it is said that he is about to be promoted to the challenger recently, but the reliability of this rumor is worth exploring.
There are many other forces in each region, and these forces are constantly at odds with each other. At the end of the day, the strife in the world of the Terminator is not for nothing, and each faction wants to get stronger, because that would gain access from the system maintainers.
The so-called system maintainer is to assist the system to do some work on a certain program, which has a wide range of work and authority. For example, if there is a problem in a game world, the maintainer will be responsible for adjusting and modifying, if you add some factors that are beneficial to your own side in the process of adjusting and modifying, or a hidden task that only you guess or something, it is also entirely possible, and there is more than one person who has done this.
And, in some cases, maintainers can even interfere in the game world that others are playing, and that permission alone makes everyone panic. When you are on a quest in the game world, but an unknown person can change the world at will, of course, it will bring horror to the person involved. If the person who can change the world is still your enemy, then I am afraid that the person concerned will have a harder time.
There are only seven maintainers, each responsible for one day per week, constantly rotating, and when one of the seven dies, the system will pick a successor to continue to be responsible. Among these seven people, it is the monarch and emperor who have not been replaced for a long time, and the remaining three are often changed, which shows that their mortality rate is very high.
Generally speaking, if you want to become a maintainer, you must at least be a senior terminator who has experienced more than ten terminator missions, but on this day, the system unexpectedly released a news that a newly promoted terminator was actually selected to become a maintainer! And this terminator has just been promoted, and he hasn't even come to Floating City! Therefore, the entire floating city is in an extremely noisy state.
Unlike other gathering places, there is only one portal in Floating City, and that is in the central area. Near the portal, there are various top-notch facilities, reinforcement centers, training grounds, simulated battlefields, huàn centers, biological transformation institutes, entertainment cities, etc., among which there are also trading markets formed by the chosen ones.
The central square surrounded by these buildings is about 2,000 square meters, and in the center is the huge portal, and at this moment, in the middle of the portal, there are many chosen ones standing on the square, among which there are even the four powerhouses who rarely show up, the Hidden Monarch, the Demon Lord, the Evil Emperor, and the War King! Everyone has a trace of expectation on their faces. They all wanted to see who could be selected by the system to be a maintainer just after being promoted to Terminator. You must know that among these people, there are many veteran terminators, and even some terminators have experienced the game world dozens of times and still haven't been able to become maintainers.
Unlike other tiers of Chosen One, Terminators are free to choose when and how many times they want to enter the game world, but the minimum requirement is to complete one mission per month. In other words, if someone wants to perform a quest consecutively, they can theoretically enter the game world fifteen times in a month, and if they don't want to do it and just want to rest, then it is perfectly fine to play the game world only once.
However, most Terminators only play the game world once a month, and it's easy to ask why. It is not easy to reach a realm of basic freedom, who does not want to live in peace and stability, human beings are inert, can stay away from the entanglement of life and death, of course, they will not take the initiative to choose to face it.
And in Floating City, you can enjoy a qiē like a god, a good wine, a woman, the most exciting gambling, a car car, a sport, etc., there is so much to do here, these things are completely much easier and happier than entering the game world and desperately completing those perverted tasks, and the only price is only to pay points.
There are even some of the chosen ones who have given up on returning to the real world altogether, right here, going through that quest once a month, and then spending time enjoying themselves and waiting for the next quest to come. Therefore, when it comes to the Terminator realm, the difference in strength between individuals is much larger than that of the chosen ones in other realms. It's the same terminator who has gone through half a year, maybe someone has completed the game world dozens of times, maybe someone has only completed it a few times, and there will naturally be a very big gap between this.
This is also one of the reasons why all the Terminators want to form a force and overwhelm other forces, the subordinate Terminators of each force have to pay a certain amount of evolution points to the upper level on a regular basis, and the force will provide limited protection to the Terminators, such as encountering conflicts with other forces in the game world, etc.
The terminators are also happy with this situation.,The evolution points provided are not very many.,But they can be protected by big forces.,In the game world, if you really encounter an enemy.,Or a conflict with other forces.,If your own power is very strong.,The other party will also be restrained.,The forces are not willing to clash head-on with each other.,Although the small actions behind the scenes have never stopped.。
Due to the fact that at the Terminator stage, the restrictions have been greatly relaxed, and even the promotion challenger has no clear requirements, so the floating city has become a paradise enjoyed by most of the Terminators, and even some Terminators have forgotten their original mission, if there is still a mission that must be carried out once a month, maybe they will forget the identity of their chosen one.
Now, these Terminators are gathered around the portal in groups of three or five, and they are chatting and joking with each other as they wait. Many people have heard of the name of the person who came to them for a long time, and some have even started to sell this information in exchange for points. The Sin League has been very active in the Salvation Space lately, and its reputation has become more and more famous.
Someone on the side had already started to use this to make money, and a black man said to the people around him: "Do you know? That team is called the Evil Force, that's right, it's the Evil Weapon that made the Hidden King anxious, are you interested?" 2000 evolution points!"
The other person obviously didn't care about 2000 points, and casually agreed: "Oh, let's hear it, I'm really curious about people who can be chosen by the system just after becoming a Terminator." ”
"Hehe, their captain's name is Wu Chun, I heard that there was a conflict with Yinjun in the executor stage, but he is still alive and well, not only that, but the second largest force in the east, Yamato Soul, is also their enemy, think about it, with such an enemy, it is not so incredible that he can live well until now, and he is not so incredible to be selected by the system. ”
"There is such a thing? I can't see that you have just been promoted to the terminator and know a lot! Could it be that Hidden Jun and Hattori Hanzo still can't deal with an executor?
The black man who sold the news suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "This will take 3,000 points." ”
"Damn, 3000 points, I'm out, I just want to know how that guy survived. ”
The black man grinned and showed a mouthful of white teeth and smiled: "Because that guy is a divine benefactor, a very powerful divine benefactor." ”
"I haven't seen a benefactor, what's the difference between a benefactor?"
The black man pointed to the portal and said, "You can see it when you look back now, hehe, thank you for your patronage." ”
As soon as the Chosen One turned around, he saw a group of people appearing under the portal. The momentum emanating from this group of people made his eyes light up, and he subconsciously took a step back.
