Shang Ke left all his cultivation base and the good fruits he once had to Yan Lu. At the moment when he succeeded in transcending the calamity, his consciousness returned to the system space.
System: [Main quest, complete.]
Shang Ke: "...What does the comma in your middle mean?"
System: [According to the calculation of the system, the probability of the host completing the punishment task does not exceed 35%.]
"so?"
[The host can complete the difficult x2 punishment task, which is completely outside the calculation of the system. The system can consider readjusting the evaluation of the host.]
"What do you think of me?"
[The heroic degree is lower than the expected value, and the completion degree is lower than the average value.]
Shang Ke: "… "
He decided to ignore the critical damage the system caused him, after all, the mission was finally completed. Although there are some regrets in my heart, I don't feel too uncomfortable, probably because I know that I will meet him in the next world, and I have nothing to fear.
System: [There is no reward for the punishment task, but the previously lit skills can still be selected, and the curse aura lasts.]
"Cursed aura? I forgot if you didn't mention it." Shang Ke asked strangely, "What are the conditions for activating the cursed aura? In the last world, it only appeared once at the beginning, and I never saw it again. shadow."
System explanation: [The condition for activating the curse aura is - "evil". The definition of "evil" has no clear boundaries, it mainly depends on the character of the host.]
Shang Ke: "… "
[Let's start elective skills now. Of course, the host can also directly enter the next world.]
How could he possibly give up the opportunity to learn skills and regulate his mood in the Hundred Refinements Space
The skills currently lit up by Shang Ke include [Cooking], [Instrument] (Piano, Dizi, Violin), [Weaving], [Hacking (Intermediate)], [Martial Arts (Beginner)]…
With little hesitation, he chose to improve his skills in martial arts and hacking.
After coming out of the Hundred Refinements Space, Shang Ke can continue his journey to the next world...
There was a strong stench in the air, and the ears were filled with panicked voices and the sound of fighting one after another. Shang Ke opened his eyes and found himself standing on a high metal platform. Below him was a dense... insect? !
Black beetles the size of pumpkins swarmed towards his location like a tide, one of them was repelled by the electric current on the protective wall, and another one immediately filled up. Under such an attack, the energy of the protective wall is severely depleted, and the defense power drops rapidly. It is estimated that it will lose its protective effect in a short time.
Around Shang Ke, countless soldiers shuttled back and forth, looking for bunkers, picked up weapons, and desperately launched an attack on the insect tide. Energy beams shot out, exploded in the insect swarm, and spattered large green mucus. But the black worms were not afraid, and still rushed towards them one after another, as if they couldn't kill them no matter how hard they tried.
This is too exciting, right? Shang Ke looked at the worms surging on the ground, only to feel his scalp tingling. The crap system likes to send him to the wrong time and the wrong place every time, leaving his little heart devastated.
Immediately, Shang Ke began to receive basic information about the world.
The planet he is now on is called Aima, and the human beings on this planet have six genders, male alpha, beta, omega and female alpha, beta, omega.
Alphas are well-built and powerful, and are born warriors and leaders; betas are mediocre in aptitude, and can give birth and conception, but the fertility rate is extremely low; Birth rates are high.
Three types, with the largest number of betas and the least number of omegas.
Shang Ke's identity in this world is an alpha who is about to graduate from the Royal Military Academy, named "Filmer". This time, he was sent to Via City, located in the northern border of the Ori Empire, to participate in a three-month investigation. Tasks are then graded by local governors, and those with high grades will have a higher starting point and chances of advancement than others.
Fillmore was born in a declining military family. His family once had two generals, one of whom was a four-star general, five captains, and many lieutenants. There has never been a senior officer, and the highest rank is only a lieutenant.
In his grandfather's generation, the family began to shift its focus to shopping malls, accumulating an objective wealth. However, the family's prestige in the army has all but disappeared. Fillmore is the only junior in their family who has been admitted to the Royal Military Academy in the past two decades, and has high expectations from the family.
But after entering the academy, Philmer, who had been studying hard, fell in love with an omega named "Rian".
The omega with outstanding appearance and rare number naturally have many suitors, and the strongest opponent among them is an alpha named "Zeka".
Zeka is different from Philmer. He comes from a new powerful family. His father is a lieutenant general of the empire and has a high status. And he himself is also very outstanding, both in appearance and ability, much better than Fillmore. But he has one shortcoming, and that is fussiness. The omega he has pursued is no less than double digits. In this era of rare omega, such a "wasteful" behavior is really outrageous. Just for the warning letter from the Omega Protection Association, he received more than a dozen.
Fillmore felt that with his devotion, he might not have the chance to compete with Zeka, so he still persevered even when other suitors gave up voluntarily.
Zeka actually didn't particularly like Rian, but was a little upset by him, so he took advantage of the opportunity to participate in the inspection mission before graduation, and secretly asked someone to assign Fillmore to the city far away from the capital, Via City, to be invisible.
But he did not expect that this mission turned out to be a death mission.
Via City is the second C-level defense line in the north and is a relatively important strategic location. However, there has been no major war in recent years, and usually only deal with some Zerg sneaking into the country.
Not long after Filmer arrived in Via City to report, the Zerg army quietly bypassed the Kanters Mountains and launched a fierce attack on the northern border. In just three days, the Zerg broke through the first line of defense and approached the second line of defense.
Originally, the military strength of the empire was enough to deal with the attack of the Zerg, but this time the situation was different, because the Zerg launched a terrible storm of insect sand. The so-called insect sand storm refers to the particle resonance caused by the collective self-explosion of more than 200,000 electromagnetic insects. Where the storm covers, all electronic devices are paralyzed, and the radiation it emits is extremely lethal to the human body.
The major frontier defenses in the north can only retreat temporarily, and wait for the storm to pass, and then fully counterattack. And Via City, because of its special geographical location, happened to be in the stagnant area of the insect sand storm, and became the only line of defense that could stop the Zerg.
The longer Via City held on, the more time there would be for other troops to withdraw and prepare for the battle. If they fall before the end of the insect sand storm, not only the soldiers in other border areas, but also more than 400,000 civilians in the other two border cities will be threatened.
Therefore, whether Via City can be held, and how long it can be held, has become the key to this victory.
But most people are not optimistic about this, because the military strength of Via City is only C-level, and the weapons and energy reserves cannot maintain continuous fierce battles for more than ten days. Even with sufficient reserves, the physical strength of 60,000 soldiers could not last.
In normal times, materials can be quickly transferred between the logistics area and the border defense, and there is basically no worries. However, this time, Via City has become an isolated city, and it must fight against the countless Zerg army without backup.
Although the situation is not optimistic, it is generally believed that Via City can hold on for at least 7 days. However, according to the original history, Via City only lasted for 4 days before it fell. Perhaps due to bad luck, due to various unpredictable accidents, several officers of Via City were seriously injured and sacrificed in battle, and finally Fillmore became the highest-ranking and able-bodied officer at the time.
Students of the Royal Military Academy can obtain the rank of second lieutenant as long as they graduate, while the soldiers in the frontier are mostly non-commissioned officers and ordinary soldiers. Although Philmore had not officially graduated, he participated in the mission inspection as a lieutenant. At the time of the crisis, he temporarily took over the command of Via City and led the remaining 40,000 soldiers to fight against the Zerg.
But Filler backed down at a critical moment, because he knew the outcome of this battle very well. Before the end of the insect sand storm, the city of Via would not get any assistance, and in the end, the entire army would be annihilated. The only difference was that they could stick to the for how long.
Filler didn't want to die, and he didn't have the courage and courage to fight to the end, so he chose to run away.
Although the insect sand storm outside has radiation, the alpha with strong physical strength has a great chance to pass through the insect sand storm, but it will leave some sequelae. Compared with sequelae, it is natural to save life. So, while the soldiers were fighting fiercely, Philmer quietly escaped from the city of Via.
He planned to remain anonymous when he returned to the capital, so that others would think he was killed in battle. In this way, he will not only have to bear the infamy, but also give honor to the family. It's just that he didn't expect that there are invisible electronic eyes in Via City, monitoring every corner of the defense area, and his every move was recorded faithfully by the monitoring.
It doesn't matter if he escapes, but the entire defense area is in chaos because of the loss of the commander, and the morale is low, and it is quickly broken by the ferocious Zerg. The soldiers were rout, and in the end they all died.
Not only that, the Zerg broke through the defense line ahead of time and drove straight in. In the following 6 or 7 days, they took away the lives of 50,000 soldiers and nearly 130,000 civilians, and the fortifications were also severely damaged. It was not until the worm sand storm ended and reinforcements arrived that the zerg were wiped out in one fell swoop, ending the tragic war.
Fillmore, who fled, was criticized by countless people and tried by a military court. Although he was not sentenced to death, the family was shamed because of this, and the business plummeted and soon went bankrupt. And because of the influence of radiation, his body became weaker day by day, coupled with the embarrassment of life, he was neglected, and finally left an indelible infamy and passed away at the age of 35.
When Shang Ke came, it was the time when he was in danger. Facing the overwhelming Zerg army, Fillmore chose to escape, and he could only fight.
[Main quest: Promoted to Colonel within ten years.]
Shang Ke couldn't help but wanted to curse, whether he could live for ten days was a question, and the task was actually to be promoted to a colonel within ten years!
According to the system information, the insect sand storm lasted for a total of 13 days, minus the 2 days that have passed, there are at least 11 days left.
In other words, he had to survive these tragic 11 days before he could complete the ten-year-long main quest.
Nima, what about alternating between easy and hard modes? The last world only completed a task of difficulty x2, the task of this world should be the easy mode!
[Punishment tasks are not counted. Please host tenaciously to survive and die heroically.]
Shang Ke: "… "
