Chapter 246 Eternal Ruin Outpost

"Since you already know, I won't continue talking," Kade said.

"I would register you first; can I have your token?" Kade asked.

Although most tokens wouldn't work here, it is still the Ethereum Realm Universal Identification ID.

Maximus and Sky took out their tokens and gave them to Kade.

"Hmm? Core student token? Beast Saint token?"

"The identity of the two of you is indeed unusual," Kade commented.

Like the Origin Arcana Institute, students are ranked as seekers, official, special, and core students.

The Beast Continent also has ranks for its talented prodigies, from Beast Alpha, Beast Savant, Beast Paragon, Beast Saint, and Beast God.

Soon, Kade processed the two tokens, inputting abyss runes and a large volume of abyss origin.

Seeing Kade effortlessly control abyss energy, Maximus couldn't help but be envious.

He had already copied Kade's physique and domain.

However, he still couldn't fully control the abyss energy like Kade.

However, seeing the alchemy ring on Kade's finger.

Maximus understood that it should be the abyss realm's innate treasure.noVe(lB)1n

"Done!"

"Now you two can use these tokens like you used to in the Ethereum realm," Kade said, giving the tokens back to them.

Maximus quickly opened the token interface at Kade's instruction.

"So it can connect wirelessly now," Maximus thought.

From what Maximus read from Tintin's database, long-distance wireless connection in the abyss had long been solved.

Unfortunately, besides needing individuals born and raised in the abyss.

One also needed a special initiate treasure to control part of the abyss origin.

What Kade just did is reinforce the token to be of the same frequency as the abyss realm.

The reason for limiting the spread of this long-distance wireless communication is, of course, abyss origin.

Maximus estimated that the abyss origin inputted by Kade just now was at least 100 trillion.

Of course, if converted to crystal merit, with Ethereum realm origin greediness, it would be worth less than a trillion.

"How is it? What do you plan to do now?" Kade asked with a smile.

"First, go to Purgatory City and decide," Maximus said.

A few days later, it was another annual exchange event.

Before deciding, he wanted to exchange a large amount of crystal merits and some Abyss Source.

Although looking at the Tintin Abyss information database, Maximus also had a rough destination in mind.

"Then I wish you good luck..."

...

A few days later, in Purgatory City:

Maximus and Skye split as usual, each doing their own thing.

Maximus, coming to a familiar city, started to move.

The shops were already marked, and their limit tolerance was also calculated.

On the first day, he exchanged over 150 trillion.

"It seems like people got richer this year," Maximus thought.

After exchanging the money, he changed his disguise again and roamed around collecting tier 6 Abyss Source.

Much like the last time, he gathered hundreds of them.

...

Finishing his shopping spree, he met up with Skye, who looked like she enjoyed herself with the trillion he gave her.

"Shall we go to the auction?"

"Yes."

In a familiar way, Maximus and Skye, like veterans, changed their disguises and entered the auction hall's supreme VIP room.

As in the last event, Maximus didn't buy any miscellaneous treasures or resources.

His only focus was the abyss source.

Unfortunately, it seemed that people in the VIP room had already learned their lessons from the last auction.

Even with Maximus's unscrupulous attitude of getting the abyss source regardless of the price.

He only managed to obtain 5 of them, one less than last year.

To this, Maximus just smiled.

He could go to any other outpost afterward; by then, collecting abyss source should be a cinch.

....

A week later, after the Annual Exchange event:

"What outpost are we going to?" Skye asked, looking at the various teleportation arrays.

"To the Eternal Ruin Outpost," Maximus said after thinking.

"Eternal Ruin Outpost?! Are you crazy?" Skye asked in shock, suppressing her voice.

Eternal Ruin Outpost is the most dangerous and biggest outpost in the Purgatory layer.

The End Town is like a paradise in comparison.

"It's just right so you can train like a real warrior," Maximus smiled teasingly.

Before, when he asked Skye which outpost had the most abyss source, she mentioned the End Town.

However, to his disappointment, it indeed had a lot of Abyss Source.

Unfortunately, they were barely tier 4 and tier 5.

Even after a year of nonstop searching, he found less than ten tier 6 abyss sources, much less tier 7 abyss sources.

As for the Eternal Ruin Outpost, that was the real frontline of the Purgatory layer.

It was at the direct junction of the Core and Purgatory layers.

The outpost itself is not stationary like End Town but a moving fortress.

As for why?

It was because abyss sources appeared endlessly, like a glitch.

Sometimes, it would even penetrate the city's defensive barrier, and an abyss source would directly summon inside the city.

And these abyss sources appearing are not merely for show; Tier 7 abyss sources are the norm.

lightsnοvεl Occasionally, there are also tier 8 abyss sources that need the three apex sovereigns permanently stationed in the fortress to take action.

It can be said that all the people surviving and staying in the Eternal Ruin Outpost are either lunatics or super geniuses.

Maximus thinks he can finally copy some heaven-defying domain or awakened physique in such a place.

As for the End Town, despite scanning all of its inhabitants, he can't find anything worthy of his attention.

Besides Kade and the managers of various top guilds and organizations, no individual possesses an awakened physique.

Meanwhile, Skye frowned after hearing Maximus took the Eternal Ruin Outpost lightly.

"Can we not go there? We can fight nonstop elsewhere if you want," Skye suggested, her expression filled with concern.

Ninety-nine percent of her deaths in her previous life occurred in this place.

It was indeed a paradise for the strong but also a graveyard for them.

Skye didn't know how many geniuses were buried in that no-man's land.

This is also the very reason it was called Eternal Ruin Outpost.

Geniuses upon geniuses, with the chance to attain eternity, lie buried like an eternal ruin in the ground.

"No, the Eternal Ruin Outpost is just right for our current strength."

"If you don't want to go, I won't force you."

"Oh~ Then I will go," Skye nodded immediately and didn't say more.

"Hmmm."

Soon, the two walked toward the Eternal Ruin Outpost's Teleportation array.

Around were tens of thousands of others who looked different from the rest.

Just getting near them, Maximus felt a murderous and indomitable aura.

If it were a normal Tier 7 individual right now, they would probably break into a cold sweat due to the pressure.

However, Maximus and Skye were like entering their home, relaxed and leisurely.

"Oh? Another special rank this year?" a man muttered, seeing the two.

The Eternal Ruin Outpost is different from other outposts.

It can only be entered by at least a guardian rank or those with special status.

Looking at the two fresh faces that didn't seem to have soaked long enough on the battlefield.

The man concluded that they had a special status.

"Probably some overconfident genius who hasn't seen much of the world."

"Hehe, I bet these two will either die in the first week or come back crying in a few days."

"Don't underestimate them too much. Who knows if they were a wolf in sheep's clothing?"

"So what? Who here isn't?"

The people surviving and still going to the Eternal Ruin Outpost are super geniuses of their time.

Their will, soul, and body are forged with unending fire battle.

Furthermore, most of them are already Tier 8.

Thus, even if the two newbies are more talented than them, they are no match.

Maximus and Skye, who heard all their jeering, didn't react.

They stood in the teleportation array, waiting to be teleported.

The array already sensed their tokens, so they didn't need to register or anything.

Of course, Maximus wouldn't just dwindle here.

Checking to see if any apex sovereign was hidden in the crowd, he commanded his system to start copying.

All the domains and special physiques of the people in the teleportation array were copied.

Looking at the seven awakened special physiques he just copied, he couldn't help but smile.

This is really a treasure trove.

In just the first round, there was already a big harvest.

Before he could check the description of the physique, he had just copied.

The man who was doubtful about their strength earlier approached them.

"Hello, I'm Yuso, the squad leader of Abyss Dragon Squad."

"I'm Maximus, and this is Skye," Maximus introduced.

Judging by his figure, Yuso should be from the Dragon Clan in the Beast Continent.

Furthermore, looking at his status panel.

It seems he was one of the people from whom Maximus copied an awakened physique.
