Abyss invasion? As a demon cultivator, I laughed.

"Huh, finally gave in?"

Chu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. If the other party was a rigid bureaucratic official who believed in suppression, he would be in trouble.

"Be nicer later. Since the other party has given in, I also need to reassure the bosses."

With his mind set, Chu Xiu did not hesitate too much and sank into consciousness to enter Yuancheng.

As soon as he entered, he received a message with coordinates on it.

The data flow shuttled quickly in Yuancheng, and soon he arrived at the designated location.

A burly man with a black ghost mask was waiting quietly in the same place, and Qin Xiang stood behind him respectfully.

"Hello, two seniors." Chu Xiu said respectfully.

"Well," Black Mask looked him up and down, "Chen Ce, right? I have heard from Qin Xiang about your performance in the world of corpse ghosts. It is true that heroes come from young."

Unexpectedly, Black Mask did not express dissatisfaction with Chu Xiu's concealment, but praised him, which made Chu Xiu feel relieved.

"Thank you for the compliment, senior." He said.

Black Mask nodded gently and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is [Ya Zi], I am the general manager of the southern region of the Investigation Bureau, and I am also one of the disciples under the throne of the King of Killing."

The words of Black Mask made Chu Xiu's heart move.

Ya Zi is a kind of fierce beast in ancient legends. It is bloodthirsty and aggressive, and has a strong personality. There is an idiom called "Ya Zi must take revenge", which means that even a small grudge must be avenged. Although the Ya Zi here does not refer to this fierce beast, but a derivative meaning, referring to a person who glares, it can also glimpse a little bit of the personality of this fierce beast.

High-level awakeners basically have their own code names, some of which are chosen by themselves, and some are passed on by others. Most of them can see their personalities just from the code names. This person is called [Ya Zi], and his personality is probably not easy to mess with.

Chu Xiu was also shocked by the fact that he was a disciple of the King of Killing. The King of Killing was in charge of the Chinese military and was the most murderous of the eight kings. He never spared anyone alive. Not only did he not spare anyone alive, he also killed everyone.

In the dark and turbulent times, countless awakeners died at the hands of the King of Killing, probably more than the other seven kings combined.

With such a fierce reputation, the requirements for accepting disciples were naturally very strict. This person could become a disciple of the King of Killing, and his talent was definitely one of the top ones.

Chu Xiu did not dare to neglect him and said hurriedly: "Junior greets Senior [Ya Zi]."

Ya Zi nodded and said: "Let's cut the crap and get straight to the point. I see that neither of us likes to be polite."

"The evaluation results of your authority upgrade are out. We have contacted three forces and finally confirmed that your authority will be upgraded from level one to level five. This will increase the total amount of karma points you can exchange from a single force to 35,400 points per year, which is about 25% higher than before."

Ya Zi's words made Chu Xiu frown slightly.

In other words, he can only exchange 20,000 karma points at most now.

This number is naturally an astronomical figure for ordinary awakeners. Even if the king level wants to get it, it usually takes several months of experience.

But for Chu Xiu, he is still a little dissatisfied!

"This is already the limit. At this level, you have to use your fists to convince others. It is impossible to give it to you directly." Ya Zi said.

Seeing him say that, Chu Xiu could only nod helplessly, indicating that he understood.

Causal points are directly related to the improvement of strength, and are the most important resources for all awakened people. There is only one way to distribute such resources to satisfy others, that is, to use absolute power to defeat all opponents one by one!

In a sense, the setting of power levels is just to standardize the bloody competition for causal points.

"Senior, I have a batch of equipment and props recently, and I want to exchange them for resources." Chu Xiu said.

Ya Zi glanced at him: "It is the spoils of Li Zhan and Wen Feiyan, how do you plan to exchange them?"

Chu Xiu asked: "I wonder if the Investigation Bureau has any plans to enter the world of corpse ghosts?"

Ya Zi nodded: "Of course I have to confirm it."

This answer is as Chu Xiu expected. Although in the eyes of the Investigation Bureau, letting the disaster escape basically means that the world of corpse ghosts is out of human control, it is impossible to just ignore it and throw it aside.

It is highly likely that Qin Xiang will enter to conduct a preliminary investigation after the cooling period ends to see if he can grab some of the resources that the disaster didn't have time to eat.

"Then let's trade in the world of corpse ghosts." Chu Xiu tried.

Ya Zi looked at him steadily for a while, and suddenly chuckled: "Just do as you say, but I hope you can be less defensive and more trusting of our investigation bureau in the future."

Chu Xiu hurriedly thanked him and agreed.

"Okay, after talking about the power level, it's time for the old trial." Ya Zi changed the subject.

"Please rest assured, senior, I will recruit teammates as soon as possible to challenge. In fact, when I was exploring the world of corpse ghosts before, I think the three teammates that Senior Qin arranged for me are pretty good."

With Chu Xiu's current strength, any teammates are almost the same

Those top geniuses under the civilization envoys are not even as powerful as him, a ghost general with buffs, not to mention the blood demon incarnation.

Chu Xiu proposed this suggestion just to bring a good brother with him without leaving any trace, because if he directly named a good brother, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

However, halfway through his speech, Chu Xiu saw Ya Zi raise his hand to signal and interrupt him.

"That was before, now we have new expectations for you."

"I came here specifically to explain this matter."

"Senior, please tell me." Chu Xiu said.

"That is actually the old trial. You can increase the difficulty and benefits by reducing the number of teammates!"

Chu Xiu was slightly startled by Yaizhen's words.

Yaizhen continued: "Actually, even if I don't tell you, you will naturally know this when you activate the evidence of the past and start the trial of the past."

"The Witness of the Past is an extremely special item. It can save the life of the tester even if the test fails. It can also be used in the trial, giving the tester a huge advantage."

"The simplest example is that it can be used in advance before the trial starts to expand the limit of people entering the trial to six, greatly increasing the probability of passing the trial."

"After our research, we found that this is due to the existence of the [Old Days Level] setting in the Old Days Certificate. The initial level is one. During the clearance process, you can actively use it to reduce the [Old Days Level] in exchange for advantages. , you can also increase the difficulty by limiting additional conditions to enhance the [Old Level].”

"The higher the [Old Level] is, the more rewards there will be for the trial and the more people will be rescued at the end of the trial, the better!"

"And the simplest and crudest way to improve the [Old Level] is to limit the number of people."

"If two people enter, they can raise the [Old Level] to two, and one person can raise it to three!"

As Yaizhen's words fell, Chu Xiu also understood.

The other party saw his strength and wanted him to try to pass the level with a small number of people.

In fact, the moment Chu Xiu heard the proposal, he decided to agree. Even if Yazhen didn't say anything, he would agree without hesitation after learning that clearing the level alone would increase the reward.

Chu Xiu is not a rigid person. Qingshan's current strength is too far behind him, so it is not necessary to bring him along. If you want to help your brothers, there will be more opportunities in the future, and you must give priority to your own development.

However, there was still a look of embarrassment on his face.

"Senior, do you think I can do it if only a few people clear it?"

"Although my summons have good combat power, they are only good at brutal fighting. They are very deficient in reconnaissance, defense, information analysis, etc."

Chu Xiu said hesitantly.

Yaizhen nodded: "Yes, what you mentioned are indeed the shortcomings of the summoning profession. To pass the old trial, it is not just strength that is enough, but also a balance in all aspects. Only by having no weaknesses can you have enough strength." The control of customs clearance.”

"This is also the reason why we haven't told you about this before, because the difficulty of the old trial itself is high enough. If you are forced to pass it with a reduced number of people, you may get nothing."

"I might as well tell you that among the twenty-seven civilized envoys in history, the pass rate of the four-person evil-level old trial is very high, almost reaching 100%, but the two-person evil-level old trial, there are a total of twelve After trying, only three people passed, and the pass rate was only 25%!

"Today, these three people and their partners are the most prestigious duo in China."

"As for the single-player trial, only two people have challenged it, and no one has been able to complete it yet!"

Yaizhen's words made Chu Xiu's heart tremble slightly.

Every civilization envoy is a genius among geniuses. There is no fool among them, and behind them are the most elite analysis teams of governments from various countries.

Under such circumstances, no one would ever advance rashly. Instead, they would challenge the challenge only after they had at least a certain degree of confidence. Those who challenged the difficulty of the Civilization Envoy should also be among the best among the Civilization Envoys themselves.

But even so, the clearance rate is still so low, which speaks volumes.

"Because of the improvement in the old level, not only the number of people who have passed the level will decrease, but there will also be additional trial rules, and the difficulty itself will also increase!"

“But the benefits are also extremely amazing, and there will be special rewards at high difficulty levels that cannot be obtained at low difficulty levels.”

"For example, the three combinations that passed the two-player trial all got a piece of [Mythical] equipment! This is why even though the trial is extremely difficult, there are still many civilizations who challenge it."        "So, we also I’m just providing you with information, and it’s up to you to make the final decision.”

【Myth】Equipment!

His words made Chu Xiu's heart feel hot instantly!

The gap between [Mythic] equipment and [Legendary] equipment is wider than the gap between [Legendary] equipment and [Perfect] equipment!

A fierce level [myth] is even higher than a general level [legend]!

And most of them are like [Jietian Blood Vine], with extremely special and powerful effects!

But [Mythical] equipment is extremely rare, and there are only dozens of them in the entire China!

And you can get [Mythical] equipment by passing the two-player trial, but what will you get by clearing the single-player trial?

"Of course, we won't let you pay the extra risk in vain."

Yazhen continued.

"If you choose to challenge the two-person trial, I can increase your authority level to six, and if you choose the single-person trial"

"I can directly raise your authority level to six! If you challenge within a month, raise it to seven! The exchange share of causal points will skyrocket to 67,600 points! And if you successfully pass the level, you can directly raise it to another level. class!"

"This is the limit of what I can do. For higher levels, you must be a [heroic spirit] or a very high king to participate."

After finishing his words, Chu Xiu took a deep breath, feeling extremely excited inside.

The high difficulty of the old trials did not make him flinch at all. With the blood demon incarnation in hand, he was confident that he could pass the level even if the difficulty increased dramatically.

There was no way, Chu Xiu was too strong.

Acting just now is nothing more than retreating in order to seek more benefits.

As he expected, Yaizhen offered a generous price and directly upgraded the authority level by three levels!

This means that he can redeem nearly 120,000 more causal points!

At this time, Yazhen said again: "And I can still make the decision. As long as you complete the challenge, I will choose a [Legendary] from the equipment library within the Investigation Bureau and give it to you!"

Get a [Legend] for free!

Chu Xiu’s eyes lit up again!

Now if his shortcomings were to be picked head-on, it was his slightly poor body defense. He had been coveting a defensive [Legendary] for a long time.

However, this type of equipment is extremely difficult to break out, especially the heavy armor type that can provide full body protection.

There must be similar equipment in the equipment warehouse within the Investigation Bureau. This is undoubtedly an extremely rare opportunity.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu pondered slightly and said, "Senior, can I choose the type of this equipment?"

Yaizhen nodded and said, "Yes, but I have an additional request."

"Senior, please tell me."

Jizhen said: "Old trials have a probability of dropping many special props, [Location Anchor Point] is one of them, and as the trial level increases, the explosion rate of [Anchor Point] will also rise linearly."

"If you expose the [Anchor Point], I hope you can sell it to the Investigation Bureau at a suitable price."

After saying this, Chu Xiu couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

He had previously felt that the conditions offered by the Investigation Bureau were too good. After all, even if the old trial was cleared, the Investigation Bureau would not get any benefits. The one who benefited the most was Chu Xiu. It turned out that this was their idea.

In the eyes of the people in the Investigation Bureau, the world of zombies has been occupied by disaster, and the output of the next anchor point will take at least two months.

By then, Calamity will most likely have gathered all the parts on his body, restored all his strength, and been promoted to a heroic spirit.

But if Chu Xiu can explode the [Anchor Point] in advance, he can let a heroic spirit enter and kill him before he is promoted to a heroic spirit!

Otherwise, even if Chu Xiu passes the trial, it will not be of much significance, because the life race he saved will soon be killed again by the disaster, which will not be of any help to the development of China.

After thinking about everything, Chu Xiu readily agreed.

He didn't bargain anymore. A boss of this level would not play tricks with you.

Seeing that Chu Xiu agreed, Yaizhen's expression relaxed a little, and he added one more thing: "You have to think about it, it is extremely difficult to pass the level alone. If you fail, you will completely lose your status as a civilized envoy, and the country will also lose its status." I won’t give you these discounts again.”

Chu Xiu nodded solemnly: "Senior, this old trial is not only related to me, but also to the people around me. At the smallest level, it is the future of my classmates. At the largest level, every time I step out of the abyss, Taking back a civilized world will give you more strength to resist the abyss."

"In this case, it would be fine if I was just an ordinary person, but since there is a possibility of success, how can I shrink back because of some risks?"

Looking at Chu Xiu with a righteous look on his face, Yaizhen was silent for a moment.

After a long while, he nodded and said: "Okay, I'm relieved that you have such a spirit."

"Qin Xiang will handle the next specific matters with you. I'm looking forward to your performance."

"Yes." Chu Xiu clasped his fists and prepared to leave.

But just when he was about to disappear, Yazhen suddenly said: "There will be a memorial service in ten days to commemorate the awakened people who died during this exploration. Will you come?"

Chu Xiu paused, turned around and said with a smile, "This is natural."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure turned into a pure stream of data and disappeared completely.

Yaizhen watched him leave without moving, and after a long time he said calmly: "Do you think he will come?"

"I can't tell for sure," Qin Xiang shook his head, "This guy is hiding too deep, I can't see through him."

Jizhen said: "Isn't there a special psychological analysis team?"

Qin Xiang smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, if you want to analyze accurately, the data must be accurate."

"He is so mysterious that we can't judge his true strength at all. For example, before facing the disaster, I always thought that he was an aggressive gambler, but who knew that he actually showed strength enough to repel Li Zhan?" strength."

"Although I didn't see the specific battle situation, it's shocking enough anyway. Is this really something that a fierce level can do?"

"The change in assessment of its strength will overturn all previous analyses."

Yaizhen raised his eyelids slightly: "You mean, is it possible for him to hide his strength?"

Qin Xiang was silent for a long time and then said with a bitter smile: "I don't know! From a rational point of view, this is impossible. The strength he has shown so far has already surpassed the strongest genius in our history by a long way. How can it be possible again? powerful?"

"But he really gave me too many surprises."

"Really?" Yaizhen touched his chin thoughtfully.

But after thinking about it for a while, he still shook his head and said: "No, I think the strength he has shown so far should be all."

"The characteristics of the summoner profession rely on the summoned objects to have extremely strong combat effectiveness in the early stage."

"But the upgrade and training of summons are extremely troublesome, and if you want to catch up with the strength improvement of other professions, you need to increase the buff props and skills in large quantities, and form a suitable combat method."

"As the first SSS-level summoner discovered so far, it is normal for this boy to have strength far beyond the same level, but the improvement of strength should gradually slow down in the later stage, and there are too many shortcomings, which is extremely easy to be targeted. This is a common problem of the summoning profession, and even the king cannot avoid it."

"So Qin Xiang, I think you have overestimated him a bit. Although the summoner's frontal combat power is strong, there are too many shortcomings. I don't think he can pass it successfully, but it is worth fighting, and even if he fails, there is still a high probability that he can bring back high-value intelligence for us."

"This kind of difficult-to-tame early-stage profession is most suitable for the task of overcoming difficulties and pioneering, rather than investing a lot of resources. I look forward to his return in the future."

Faced with the judgment of Jiaozi, Qin Xiang did not say a word, obviously a little indignant.

Ya Zi did not say anything more, but said: "According to his current strength, it will be increased by at most 10%, and psychological analysis will be conducted based on this."

"This boy's behavior logic is different. Sometimes he is very selfish, and sometimes he will take risks to rescue others. I want to know his performance, which parts are his true character, and which parts are he pretending."

"Yes." Qin Xiang replied.

After giving the order, Ya Zi did not say anything more, and his figure disappeared on the spot.

Qin Xiang looked at the figure of his boss and chuckled for a long time.

He has been with Ya Zi for ten years. When he was still a fierce level, Ya Zi promoted him.

But after ten years of getting along, Qin Xiang still knows very little about him. He only knows that he has begun to emerge since the dark age and is one of the first few people to follow the King of Killing.

Later, he served as the branch director of the Investigation Bureau, and he cultivated countless talents for the country, collected a lot of information, and eliminated many hidden dangers.

Qin Xiang has always trusted his direct superior's vision.

But this time, he had a strange intuition that his boss might have made a mistake.

Thinking of Chu Xiu's embarrassed expression when he heard about the single-player trial, Qin Xiang only felt a familiar feeling. The other party seemed to have shown him the same expression before, and at that time he was just like Jiaozi now, confident in his analysis.

"No one has ever passed the single-player trial since the invasion of the abyss. Can this boy do it?"

"It's really exciting."
