Chapter 22: Pseudo-Dimensional Space
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"The Adjudicator named Lang Mie has a weird personality."
Zhu Jian sat beside Xu Mo and noticed the latter's curiosity. He explained in a low voice.
"If our information is wrong and Lord Lang Mie doesn't find any high-level monsters, we'll be in big trouble!"
"Big trouble?" Xu Mo was even more puzzled.
Seeing that he did not understand, Zhu Jian explained patiently, "Lord Lang Mie's personality is just like that. If he thinks that we're making something up out of nothing, or that we're giving him false information, he'll hold onto it tightly."
"This happened in other fortresses before. They encountered a high-level monster and asked for help from the alliance. However, when Lord Lang Mie arrived, the high-level monsters had already left."
"Despite that, Lord Lang Mie only thought that someone from that fortress was just causing trouble for him. Thus, he requested the alliance to wipe out all of that fortress's resources!"
"No way!" Xu Mo was surprised when he heard this.
However, when he saw Zhu Jian's serious gaze, he realized the situation was serious.
Obviously, not everyone had the same thoughts. Some people relied on their high strength to bully others.
"If we want to confirm that there are high-level monsters outside the city, we need to send someone into the forest outside the city and get solid evidence."
Zeng Rong's words were shocking, and the conference room fell silent.
"Sir, we are willing to go!" Leng Qun and Zhang Jun stood up.
"The two of us will go together. As long as we are careful and capture the monster's traces, we will immediately retreat. At that time..."
Hearing the two lieutenants, everyone present felt uncomfortable.
They all knew in their hearts that although they made it sound easy, the difficulty wasn't up to them the moment they would go outside the city.
The city's outside part was the monsters' territory. In this current situation, Silver-ranked ones roamed everywhere outside, and there were even Gold-ranked ones.
Not to mention the Platinum-ranked ones hiding in the dark.!
If they were to encounter these monsters, their chances of escaping were infinitely close to zero.
"All of you will be staying here." Zeng Rong waved his hand and interrupted them before they could finish.
"I'll go. If I don't come back…"
"Admiral!" Everyone was moved. No one had expected Zeng Rong to personally go.
"Don't say anything else. This matter is decided!" Zeng Rong ordered in an unquestionable tone.
"When I'm not around, you three lieutenants will discuss and resolve the mansion's defense. If I don't return, immediately report to the higher-ups and ask the alliance to send a new admiral to take over as soon as possible!"
Zeng Rong had been stuck at 5-star Gold rank for too long. Based on the current situation, he would be stuck at that level for the rest of his life.
As for Leng Qun and Zhang Jun, they still had room for improvement. As the admiral, he should set them an example.
Therefore, no one else could go on this trip outside the city except him.
"Xu Mo, after I leave, you will be the strongest here. You must protect this place well."
As if he knew what Xu Mo wanted to say, Zeng Rong interrupted him with a sentence.
Xu Mo had indeed wanted to go with Zeng Rong, but he did not expect the admiral in front of him to have arranged everything decisively.
Seeing Zeng Rong leave the meeting room, he was eager to improve his strength as soon as possible.
He decided to do something quickly. He couldn't watch Zeng Rong leave the city to die!
"Lieutenant Xu, this is the nameplate the alliance specially made for us."
After leaving the conference room, Xu Mo looked for Zhu Jian and asked for the nameplate to purchase military supplies.
Zhu Jian seemed to know what the former wanted to do. He did not waste any words and directly handed a red metal card to him.
"With this nameplate, no matter where you are, as long as you inject your bloodline energy into the nameplate, you can enter the Pseudo-Dimensional Space the alliance created and purchase military supplies."
The Pseudo-Dimensional Space was the Alliance Munitions Factory's masterpiece. Although its functions were of little value, it was the best and safest warehouse to store material.
It was similar to the Internet in Xu Mo's previous life, except this time, Inheritors could directly enter the space through the nameplate using their bloodline energy. This way, they can purchase anything they wanted there.
After returning to his room with the nameplate, Xu Mo injected his bloodline energy into the nameplate.
The moment the nameplate absorbed the energy, a bright light shone in front of him. When he opened his eyes again, he saw countless lockers floating in front of him.
This place was the alliance's Pseudo-Dimensional Space. Only Inheritors with a nameplate could enter.
Xu Mo quickly noticed that there were many people's names recorded on the huge screen above his head, and his name was at the top.
However, the strange thing was that behind his name was a messy string of numbers.
Xu Mo's eyes lit up. He knew the meaning of the string of numbers. It was the achievement points that Zhu Jian had told him before.
In the Pseudo-Dimensional Space, one could only purchase resources through achievement points.
As for the source of achievement points, they all came from killing monsters. According to killing monsters of different levels, the corresponding achievement points were obtained.
"I'm back again. Hahaha, this time, I killed a Silver-ranked Violent Lion Beast. My ranking will definitely rise by a few places!"
"You went out alone again? You really don't know what's good for you. Our team went out of the city this time and killed six Silver-ranked monsters."
"So what? No matter how hard you work, you'll only get those few achievement points. I'm just learning from my boss. I heard that he recently went to Jiangzhong Fortress and just experienced a beast tide there. He's definitely still number one on the recruit rankings!"
"Do you think your boss is invincible? There are many strong people in this world."
Just as Xu Mo was looking around at the goods, some people came in and talked, attracting his attention.
"F*ck, it can't be. When did the number one on the rankings change?"
"Who is Xu Mo? My boss's merit points have only been less than 60,000 after such a long time, but this guy has already reached 200,000!"
"Look carefully, it's not 200,000, but 260,000. Your boss's achievement points are only a fraction of his!"
"How is this possible? How can this recruit obtain so many achievement points so quickly?"
"What's impossible if he's strong? Just accept reality!"
As more and more people were discussing, the Pseudo-Dimensional Space became lively.
The recruit ranking was too shocking. For nearly a year, the first on the leaderboard was a recruit called Wan Wei.
In the end, he was suddenly overtaken by someone in a crushing manner. It was really unexpected!
