Chapter 222: Chapter 153 Life and Death Illusion, Rank 948
Translator: 549690339
The next morning, there was a constant influx of people in the mission hall situated at the front of the square.
One by one, cultivators clad in ordinary battle armor or even more audacious, superb transdimensional armor, walked in and out.
Most of these cultivators’ aura was at the Triplex Heaven and above, and quite a few at the Quadruplex Heaven. All of them carried massive weapons on their back, some even emitting a pale glow.
Obviously, those were transcendent weapons.
“Thai Mountain squad is two members short for carrying the corpses of the mutated beasts. Bring your own anti-gravity disks if interested. Minimum requirement is Triplex Heaven.”
“God Sword Team is expanding, looking for two members at the early stage of the Fourth Layer Heaven or higher. Our target is the Level 5 mutated beast, so it’s best to have transcendent weapons …”
In the bustling crowd, Jack Clark and Freya Louise, dressed in armor, updated their personal intelligent devices on the equipment around them, led by Justin Welan.
They completed networking with the Sky Base Satellite and updated the map.
After all this was sorted out, they came to the front door of the mission hall, where Zac Lyons and others, clad in armor and carrying weapons and supplies in their backpacks, were already waiting.
Justin Welan waved his hand: “Jack, well leave first, well get in touch when we’re back.”
Jack Clark nodded: “Go ahead, be careful, especially take care of Freya, her close combat defense ability is too weak, although she has a high single attack power.”
Marcus Lee slapped his chest and assured, “Don’t worry, Jack, as long as we’re around, she won’t get hurt at all. It’s a man’s promise.”
“Yes, don’t worry,” Mullen Weisz nodded in agreement.
Zac Lyons nodded, “That’s it, don’t underestimate us, the Chaotic God squad. We are strong among the teams in the Triplex Heaven. We always defeat Level 4 mutated beasts without any injuries.”
“Why do 1 feel that according to you all, I have absolutely no close combat abilities?”
Meanwhile, the girl carrying a sniper rifle—loaded with clips and miniature bombs strung across her waist and back—clicked her high-power pistol and nestled it into her thigh armor, creating a heroic image.
Jack Clark smiled and shook his head, “It’s not the same, you’re a shooter, bound to be more fragile than these meat shields or warriors. They should stand up when there’s danger.”
After some casual conversation, they waved goodbye to Jack and walked away.
No sooner had the six members of the team left than Carney Lee, carrying a heavy sword, approached Jack Clark and, standing on the stairs, sighed: “After coming here, I feel like a dog among the Triplex Heaven.”
Jack Clark nodded, “No need to feel that. Here, the Triplex Heaven is just a foot soldier.”
Carney Lee was at a loss for words: “Jack, 1 was just lamenting. You really didn’t need to be that direct.”
Jack Clark laughed: “It’s not to bring you down, but a fact, but compared to them, 1 see more potential in you.”
“Think about it, they spent two or even three years to reach the Triplex Heaven, and you caught up just with a semester of cultivation. Isn’t that a greater potential?”
“So buck up, young man.”
“Now that sounds human. Goodbye, I am also about to leave.” Saying that, Carney Lee waved at Jack Clark and marched towards the exit of the base.
The first-grade students who came here early were all geniuses, and every genius had their pride. They had limited good relationships, and most of them preferred to be loners.
Phew! Jack Clark blew out a sigh of air, ready to leave.
But at this very moment, a large screen at the side of the square nearby lit up.
“Jane Aiken, with the cultivation of the early stage of Fourth Layer Heaven, reverse defeating The Lans Martial Arts’ Baihong. Her Sword Intent is Life and Death Illusion, offensive and unmatched, the current ranking on the Achievement list is 948.”
All of a sudden, Jack Clark’s steps faltered, surprise gleaming in his eyes as he, along with other students, looked up at the striking red characters on the big screen.
Defying a stronger genius with the cultivation of the early stage of Fourth Layer Heaven, the Sword Intent is Life and Death Illusion, offensive and unmatched!
“Impressive! She seems to be the first freshman to make it within the top 1000 on the achievement list, and she also seems to be from our South Sky Martial Height!”
“She is from our South Sky Martial Height, ranked 16th on the First-grade Talent Rankings.”
“Yikes! These new students really are incredible. 1 get the feeling these freshmen are even more monstrous than the last batch.”
“Not just you, 1 have that feeling too. So, we should work hard, otherwise us ‘old’ fellows will soon be left in the dust.”
“Work hard? We are only at the late period of the Triplex Heaven, we are already left in the dust.”
Amid the whisperings of the seniors, Jack Clark wore a subtle smile. No wonder she was the girl who continued to dazzle everyone since high school.
She broke late in her cultivation a few days ago, now, she made a strong comeback, becoming the first to kill into the top 1000 on the achievement list.
There were three routes going down the mountain of the South Sky Martial Height Base, all of which were eight-lane cement roads with a width of tens of meters. The roads were sturdy enough for a vehicle weight of 100 tons and led in three different directions.
Aside from these, there were many defensive buildings around. The gun barrels protruding from the Weapon Fortress above were as thick as 0.5 meters, and as long as ten plus meters, even more fearsome than those destroyer’s ship guns.
However, looking at the surroundings, they didn’t seem to have been used much.
At this time, figures were constantly soaring over the three major roads, covering dozens of meters in the blink of an eye. Among them was Jack Clark.
Although the base also had trucks, off-road vehicles, and other modern facilities, students like them who had chosen the freedom to move around, entering the mountains for practice, none of them chose to rent.
Because ten kilometers out of the base, vehicles are useless. There are no roads.
In a moment, Jack Clark rushed down from the mountain and a large stretch of evenly flat rice fields, orchards came into view.
In these rice fields and orchards, some workers were operating construction machinery and working, filled with the atmosphere of rural farming and industrialized cultivation..
