Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

Chapter 28: Assessment!

Hua Wei Ju entrance.

While Lin Ye sized up the group of black-clad warriors, they were also assessing this young martial artist.

Even noticing the 'Advanced Warrior' badge on his arm.

They showed no sign of underestimation, but instead nodded in acknowledgment.

They possessed a palpable killing intent, yet weren't overbearing.

Immediately, they garnered Lin Ye's favor.

Likewise, Lin Ye returned their smiles as a gesture.

After a brief greeting, they stood in place, seemingly awaiting orders from their leader.

An aura of solemnity emanated from them, resembling a disciplined army.

"Qiqi, long time no see!"

At that moment, a tall and handsome man walked out, looking at Xu Qi, who was trying to hide behind Lin Ye, and smiled:

"Your Chen Xuan-gege isn't some scary monster, no need to be so afraid, right!"

Lin Ye: "…"

"I... I wasn't hiding from you, I just ate a lot and was resting for a bit," Xu Qi 'justified'.

Then, she blinked her bright eyes, looked behind the Chen-surnamed War God, and asked in confusion: "Chen Xuan-gege, where's Dragon King?"

"You Dark Nights don't just have this many people, right!"

"Hahaha..., you found out, you're really clever!" Chen Xuan praised with a smile, then said seriously:

"Your Uncle Long discovered a large group of Commander-level Ironclad Dragons and some Silver Moon Giant Wolves in area 7023, and is currently leading some brothers to cooperate with an armored regiment under the Dark Hawk Army to eliminate them to prevent future troubles."

Chen Xuan looked at Xu Qi and said slowly.

"What about you guys?"

Chen Xuan was stunned: "We're resting at the shelter base, gathering supplies, and will join them in the wilderness tomorrow,

Qiqi, you may have heard, we've been fighting all the way from the Southwest Fortress for over a month..."

"Oh~ I see!" Xu Qi nodded, then asked: "I heard them mention it, do you have some secret mission fighting all the way here?"

"Classified!" Chen Xuan glanced at Lin Ye, and said.

Lin Ye, standing aside, took all of this in, his brow slightly furrowed.

Marching all the way from the Southwest Fortress to Shancheng City, this Dark Night Mercenary Corps seems even more terrifying than the rumors.

But remembering that the lowest among them is a Intermediate War General, he instantly understood.

Such a powerful and well-coordinated team, led by a War God expert, can't be stopped by ordinary beast hordes as long as they don't actively provoke powerful Lord-level monsters.

Lin Ye's subtle expression changes were also noticed by Chen Xuan, who jokingly said: "Little brother, are you here on a date with Qiqi today, trying to woo our Qiqi?

But your current strength doesn't seem to be enough!"

As he spoke, Chen Xuan glanced at Lin Ye's martial artist badge, a faint smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Lin Ye: "…"

"Uncle Chen!

Mr. Lin Ye asked me out today to discuss serious matters, not for a date!" Xu Qi said with a slightly red face, rebutting angrily.

"Oh, right! Not a date for the sake of a date, but a rendezvous!" Chen Xuan went further, causing the surrounding martial artists to burst into laughter.

"Hahaha!" x63.

"Alright, chat with your boyfriend, we have to go in and eat and rest, we're exhausted from living in the wild these days."

After speaking, Chen Xuan and a large group of War General martial artists walked into the restaurant.

"Damn Uncle Chen, farewell forever!" Xu Qi said with an angry expression.

Looking at the backs of this large group of War General martial artists, Lin Ye revealed a thoughtful expression.

"Don't take it seriously, they're just joking!" Seeing Lin Ye's strange expression, Xu Qi quickly said.

Lin Ye shrugged: "I didn't take it seriously."

"Well, then rest early, and take the test well tomorrow."

"No problem!"

After speaking, the two left separately...

Inside the shelter, all was silent.

Lin Ye returned to his residence, facing the hot night breeze.

After a simple wash, Lin Ye changed into a set of white practice clothes and came to the training hall.

He wanted to check the actual situation of the Dark Night Mercenary Corps on the martial artist forum, but was still told that his permissions had not been upgraded.

A wry smile appeared on Lin Ye's face, then he opened a video call with Little Aunt Lin.

After confirming that his sister's physical condition was normal, he felt much more at ease.

Next, as long as he passed the assessment smoothly, and waited for the experts and medicines from Kyoto City to arrive, his sister's illness would not be a problem.

"Yueyue, you'll be able to stand up soon..."

After turning off the video, Lin Ye began a new round of cultivation.

Sitting cross-legged in the hall, he silently recited the "Nine Hua Sutra" mental cultivation method—

"Concentrate and guide the Qi, empty the air in the body, emptiness is destruction, destruction derives annihilation, life is illusion, illusion is emptiness..."

"Gather jade energy, collect heaven and earth!"

As the words of the mantra were spoken, Lin Ye quickly adjusted his physical state.

His breathing was peaceful, and his state of mind was empty.

Five strands of thought converged at the Yongquan acupoints on the soles of his feet, the Laogong acupoints on the palms of his hands, and the Baihui acupoint on the top of his head, and began to absorb cosmic energy—

[Absorbing cosmic energy, attribute points +5]

...

[Absorbing cosmic energy, attribute points +5]

...

[Absorbing cosmic energy, attribute points +5]

...

Accompanied by the electronic synthesized sound in his mind, Lin Ye's cultivation of genetic origin power gradually entered a better state...

The next morning.

Lin Ye stood on the balcony, bathing in the morning breeze.

The horizon was tinged with a faint blue, dawn was approaching.

In the hazy night, only a few remaining stars that had not yet left before dawn were left.

At the four corners of the shelter, searchlights that had worked all night.

Still tirelessly illuminating the surrounding open space.

Teams of armed soldiers and martial artists patrolled non-stop.

Lin Ye stretched, his joints bursting out with a muffled cracking sound.

After a night of cultivation, Lin Ye felt that his physique had improved a lot, and immediately brought up the system interface—

[Name: Lin Ye (Intermediate War General)]

[Attribute Points: 175]

[Body Technique: Micro-level (Proficiency 95/100)]

[Strength: 24210kg]

[Speed: 192.6m/s]

[Spirit: Spiritual Power (Elementary War God)]

[Domain: Not Activated (Gray)]

[Clone: Not Activated (Gray)]

[...]

Even compared to the first time he cultivated genetic origin power, the number of attribute points was much lower, but Lin Ye accepted it gladly.

"System, continue to add points!"

Without another word, he started adding points.

Today's assessment was very important, he had to unleash his peak state to fight for a higher-level contract.

Whoosh!

Strands of cool breath immediately enveloped his whole body, a tingling sensation from the bones made him feel so comfortable that he almost cried out.

"I will do my best in this assessment!"

Lin Ye slowly took a breath of the cool morning breeze, suppressed the increasingly strong feeling in his heart, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After the feeling of improvement slowly dissipated, Lin Ye immediately changed into a set of well-fitting white martial clothes and strode towards the military district martial arts hall...

...

Inside the military district martial arts hall.

In less than ten minutes, Lin Ye had completed the two tests of strength and speed.

"Assessment over, Lin Ye's two results are as follows:"

"Punching Power: 32710kg."

"Speed: 207.6m/s."

A full-bodied voice rang out in the martial arts hall.

A white-haired, black-robed man holding a blue folder smiled slightly at Lin Ye: "You are the most talented young martial artist I have ever seen."

Lin Ye smiled and said modestly: "Thank you, Hall Master Xue, for the compliment, I am just a latecomer and need to learn more from seniors like you."

"Hahaha, your words make me very happy, but your modesty and low profile are not good."

The white-haired middle-aged man patted Lin Ye on the shoulder and said earnestly: "In this era of rampant monsters and the dark future of mankind, modesty is definitely not a commendatory term."

"What you need to do is try your best to show your strength and potential, strive for the tilt of various resources to the greatest extent, and grow desperately!!"

"After all, those monsters will not give up attacking because of your talent,

What you have to do is grow from a genius to a strong person in the shortest possible time!"

"Well, I know!" Hearing this, Lin Ye's heart was touched.

He nodded heavily, his eyes flashing with determination: "I will no longer be modest!!"

"Not bad, not bad, a promising child!" Xue Zhan nodded again in satisfaction.

"Of course, don't you see who brought Lin Ye in?"

Xu Qi raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a smile.

Lin Ye looked at this young secretary as if he were looking at a proud peacock.
