Chapter 173: Improve strength within 7 days, the Tower of Babylon takes a big step
[Ding! The host has completed the selection and the reward has been issued]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for comprehending the sword realm]
[Returned to the original world]
As the system prompt sounded in his mind, Jiang Ming slowly opened his eyes and saw a more familiar lounge, but his body was still unable to adapt to the sudden teleportation.
"..."
In any case, staying in one place for a period of time and then suddenly coming to another place will always have some impact on the body.
After calming down briefly, Jiang Ming briefly summarized the results of this mission.
The first is that Fu Hua wasn't hit as hard as she originally was.
The Seven Swords of Taixu also got the price they deserved. After all, what does what the white-robed man did have to do with me, Jiang Ming?
Secondly, the cause and effect between Otto and Li Sushang was also affected by himself. She probably stood on his side. I don’t know to what level she can reach in her understanding of swordsmanship.
All in all, this mission was successfully completed without any regrets.
"System, how long has it been?"
[Three days, host, you still have four days of rest time]
"Is it......"
Jiang Ming simply relaxed his muscles and bones. Even so, his body didn't actually feel that tired. He did this only because he felt it was the right thing to do after staying in bed for a long time.
"Then there are still four days left. Are there any other optional tasks?"
【...】
[Host, you seem to be much more diligent than usual]
"Haha, there's no such thing as diligence. I just hope to replenish some energy during this short vacation and do more for them."
"Ah... Since you can teleport me to more than 500 years ago, you should be able to teleport me to the time of the second collapse, right? Can I ask you for this?"
Faced with Jiang Ming's sudden request, the system naturally would not refuse, but it still reminded him.
[Of course you can, but no matter what happens or what you want to do, you will have to bear the corresponding consequences, so please don’t make a big fuss.]
When Jiang Ming heard that, he naturally nodded in agreement.
"Well, it's good that you can send me there. I will know my limits. Thank you very much."
【This is the meaning of my existence, host】
As the conversation with the system ended, a new prompt sounded in Jiang Ming's mind.
[Ding! An event has been detected, start options]
[Choice 1: Since there are still four days of rest, you can choose to secretly observe Raiden Mei and others who are taking the B-rank Valkyrie test]
[Reward: Introduction to the Rules of the Thunder Universe]
[Choice 2: There are many causes and consequences in the world, and everyone has to bear them. Since there are still four days of rest, you can choose to carry out a special task.]
【Mission: Observe or Contact】
[Reward: Greatly improved mental strength]
[Choice 3: Since there are still four days of rest, the current first choice is to play badly and rest for four days! ]
[Reward: Introduction to the Rules of the Void Universe]
"Ok?"
Seeing these familiar choices, Jiang Ming subconsciously frowned slightly, and the system explained it to him.
[Host, do you really not want to go and see Raiden Mei? Although they have a hidden card that you have secretly hidden, they should also want you to be around, right? ]
Jiang Ming shook his head slightly and explained.
"No, in fact, it's the worst if I'm around. They will definitely want to pass the test on their own. If I stay by their side all the time, they won't be able to share the joy of passing the test with me while I'm doing the task."
"Besides, I believe in them."
【......I see】
[The second option has been automatically selected for the host]
"Thank you."
After Jiang Ming expressed his thanks as usual, he closed his eyes again and waited for the system to transmit. He had to improve his strength to a higher level within just seven days.
As the dizziness came, Jiang Ming's consciousness fell into darkness again...
.....................
"what!"
What made Jiang Ming open his eyes was not the system prompt sound, but the bone-deep coldness. When he opened his eyes, what he saw was a vast snowfield.
"Ahh... It looks like this is Siberia, it's so cold..."
After using the Honkai energy to block the cold wind approaching him, Jiang Ming put on a white robe. Although the Destiny Headquarters also issued him the men's team uniform of the Undying Blade, he refused it because he did not like this style.
But this did not create any bad impression on the Valkyries, instead they all took out their notebooks and quickly recorded it...
Jiang Ming looked at the Babylon Laboratory not far from him and then looked in the direction of the Tianming Headquarters. A white shadow flashed and disappeared on the spot.
...................
2000, April 2.
【Tower of Babel】
[This laboratory standing on the Siberian snowfield is equipped with a 6500HW Honkai energy reactor]
[It is the second largest Honkai energy experimental facility in the Destiny, and the third largest Honkai energy reactor in the world is located in the Babylon Tower]
[It provides endless energy for the three scientific research departments in this 152-meter-high giant building]
[The tower is divided into 50 floors, the bottom 20 floors are the energy area where the reactor is placed, and the other 30 floors are divided into three research departments]
[The Advanced Systems Department mainly studies the technology of combining Honkai energy with the human body, and the Stigmata technology is one of the important results]
[The Energy Department is mainly responsible for basic theoretical research on Honkai energy and provides support for the development of other projects]
[The weapons department is responsible for converting Honkai energy into weapons for combat based on the theory proposed by the energy department. They are currently assisting the headquarters in the research of [Throne of the Gods] weapons.]
[Among the three departments, the Advanced Systems Department is the top priority of research in this base]
[It studies the technology of combining Honkai energy with the human body - the Holy Mark, which is the most important result produced based on the research of this department]
[To the outside world, the Advanced Systems Department also disguises itself as the world's largest and most authoritative medical institution - a medical research institution that treats Honkai diseases.]
[In the Babylon Laboratory, there is a research team of 322 people...]
"...6500 HW? That's equivalent to half of the Moonlight Throne."
While listening to the system's explanation, Jiang Ming used the fetal transformation to hide his body shape and breath and walked casually in the tower. With the guidance of the system, he would naturally not get lost.
"It would be great if I could use the Chiyou core to absorb it. This would definitely provide me with a greater foundation. However, in order to awaken Xilin, I'd better endure it."
The staff in white coats beside him also couldn't see him. They walked while holding data reports and discussing the next experimental direction.
"Who will be the next test subject?"
"Hmm... It's X-1. She's the one who survived the longest after being injected with Honkai energy, and she's also the most active. We can't go wrong choosing her next. It will definitely greatly increase our success rate."
"Ah, I know. Every time an experiment begins, this piece of garbage screams the loudest, making it hard to forget. Yet, the people above us still let us do experiments every day. Don't they know that our ears need a rest, too?"
"Okay, we have to hurry. It doesn't matter if the garbage is gone. It has nothing to do with us. What's important is the lab report. Otherwise, when the higher-ups get anxious, we'll be in trouble."
"The experiment will begin in half an hour. We need to do some preparations first. Hurry up."
"understood."
"..."
As the two walked away, Jiang Ming, who was listening on the side, also started his own action.
