Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 312 Disguise

"drop!"

Following the traction signal sent from inside Yuanlong Star, Yang Wu immediately boarded a spaceship and flew into Yuanlong Star along a specific route.

Soon, the blood-red triangular spaceship entered Yuanlong Star and landed on the spaceship parking platform.

"Wow! It's an F-class spaceship made entirely of red copper mother material!"

Upon seeing the blood-red triangular spaceship, a man clad in silver standard combat armor exclaimed in surprise, "A Class F spaceship like this must be worth at least several million Chaos Units!"

An F-class spaceship is practically standard equipment for an immortal god of the Marquis level.

Most Marquis-level Immortals would not use a logistics base like Origin Dragon Star when traveling to the outer battlefields.

Therefore, even though he works at this logistics base, he rarely sees F-class spaceships.

Whoosh!

The hatch opened.

A figure emerged from the spaceship's hatch. It was a man clad in dark gold armor, his face hidden beneath a dark gold mask, radiating an extremely formidable aura.

This person was Yang Wu. After casually putting the spaceship into his world ring, he turned to look at the staff member next to him.

"Respected immortal deity, I am a staff member here. How can I help you?"

The man in standard battle armor quickly greeted him respectfully, while inwardly he was secretly alarmed. "This immortal deity exudes such immense pressure and travels in an incredibly expensive F-class spaceship. Could he be a Marquis-level immortal deity?"

Yang Wu calmly looked at the other party. This staff member, dressed in standard battle armor, had two sharp horns on his head and was a domain lord-level powerhouse from the minotaur race.

"I applied to go to the battlefield outside the region, but I don't know which way to go?" Yang Wu asked softly.

"Reporting to you, sir, the space armies all came as a group, while the lone wolves all proceeded together along this passage to the rendezvous point!"

The man in the silver standard battle armor pointed to a very wide passageway made of transparent glass in the distance: "Sir, you can follow this passageway to the gathering point. This passageway is about three thousand kilometers long, and the gathering point is at the end of the passageway. There will be people there to take care of the reception."

"Thanks," Yang Wu nodded in thanks.

Yang Wu then proceeded along the passage. With his current level of cultivation, even without deliberately increasing his speed, he reached the end of the passage in just a short while, where he found a rather beautiful square.

Yang Wu looked around and saw that the plaza was huge, with a diameter of over a hundred kilometers. Even though nearly ten thousand space warriors had gathered here, it still looked sparse.

"Sigh, for lone wolves like us, it takes a hundred Realm Lord level experts to teleport to the outer battlefield at once. It's really... I spent a full eleven years traveling by spaceship to get to this Origin Dragon Star, and I didn't expect that I would have to wait even after arriving here!"

Not far from the entrance of the passage, a tall figure dressed in dark blue armor was sitting on a bench, complaining.

He was four meters tall, with strong legs and four thick, powerful arms. He had only one eye on his face, and it was a vertical eye.

This person is none other than the 'Dark Gara Clan,' a very famous race among the human races of the universe.

The Dark Gara race can reach the cosmic level upon reaching adulthood. Although they cannot compare to the pinnacle bloodlines of human races such as the Manka Star people, they are still considered very good among human races!

Moreover, as the darlings of the earth, the Angaro people have a great advantage in comprehending the laws of earth.

Beside this Dark Gara clansman sat a powerful Realm Lord from the Ape-Man race, who also spoke in a low voice: "We lone wolves are no match for the armies of those cosmic nations in terms of numbers. If we don't gather a certain number of people, the logistical costs will be too high. You've come at a good time; I've been waiting here for nine days, and we're still short 13 Realm Lords to gather a hundred people!"

"There's nothing we can do but wait!"

The two then picked up their glasses and began drinking and chatting.

"Hey, look, someone else is coming." A space warrior's voice came from the side.

The powerful realm lord of the Dark Gara clan also turned his head to look, then suddenly stood up and respectfully bowed to the man in dark gold armor, saying, "Greetings, Your Excellency!"

"An immortal god!"

"Is it an immortal being from the Source Dragon Star?"

"That shouldn't be the case. I've seen the immortals on Source Dragon Star, and most of them wear white robes!"

A few hushed whispers could be heard from the surroundings.

At the same time, everyone stood up and respectfully bowed to Yang Wu, saying, "Greetings, Your Excellency!"

Yang Wu looked around and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Just then, the gate to the passageway on the side of the square suddenly opened, and an immortal deity dressed in white robes walked out of the passageway.

The white-robed immortal deity spotted Yang Wu in the arena and quickly walked over.

"Hello, I am Eaton, and I am here to guide lone travelers who come to Yuanlong Star. You are here to go to the extraterrestrial battlefield, right?" The white-robed immortal god smiled, his eyes containing an astonishing murderous aura.

"Yes!" Yang Wu nodded with a smile.

"Please wait a moment!" said the immortal god named Eaton with a smile.

Then, Eaton turned to the nearly ten thousand lone travelers in the square and said loudly, "Little ones, you are very lucky! Because your group has encountered an immortal god, we no longer need to gather the quota of one hundred realm lords. Soon you will be teleported to the most glorious, yet also the most brutal, extraterrestrial battlefield!"

Hearing this, the lone travelers knew they didn't need to wait any longer, and they were quite pleased.

"Great, we don't have to wait any longer!"

"We were lucky this time!"

"Of course! That's an immortal god. Even with high logistical costs, we wouldn't have an immortal god waiting here specifically for that!"

"The status of immortal gods is truly high. I wonder if I'll ever have a chance to break through to immortality?"

"Silence!" the immortal god Eaton whispered.

The square immediately fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.

Eaton scanned the entire area and began quickly categorizing the nearly 10,000 lone pedestrians in the square.

"Cosmic level, everyone assemble here."

"Domain Lords, assemble here."

Nearly ten thousand lone travelers were quickly separated, leaving only a few dozen World Lord-level powerhouses in place.

Eaton continued, "As for the World Lord level experts, all of you come with me. We will conduct a traditional authority granting ceremony for you later."

"A permission granting ceremony?"

"What do you mean?"

"What's that for?"

Although the group of realm lords remained silent, they were all whispering among themselves, clearly not very clear about their specific experiences participating in the extraterritorial battlefield.

However, among these people, there were a few who looked calm and collected, clearly people with considerable backgrounds.

Eaton had already anticipated this, and thus continued, "The granting of authority is to confirm your precise status within the military once you arrive at the battlefield outside the region!"

"The military is a hierarchical system where subordinates must obey their superiors. Therefore, the virtual universe network will rate your abilities based on your past performance in the virtual universe to determine your authority within the military!"

"The ratings are divided into three levels: 'Ordinary Realm Lord Warrior,' 'Elite Realm Lord Warrior,' and 'Realm Lord General!'"

"If any of you haven't yet unleashed your full power in the virtual universe, you may now connect to the virtual universe and do so!"

Yang Wu stood aside and listened quietly.

Although the world lords around him are all peerless geniuses, most world lords in the vast universe are still quite ordinary.

Generally speaking, the vast majority of powerful realm lords are ordinary realm lord warriors.

Those who can cultivate to the ninth level of the Realm Lord and have been recognized by the lower-level Origin Laws, such as Jiang Tianchen of the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield, can barely be considered elite Realm Lord warriors.

As for Realm Lord Warriors, only one Realm Lord Warrior can emerge from among hundreds of elite Realm Lord Warriors.

After saying this, Eaton handed over the authority to a subordinate, then turned to Yang Wu and said with a smile, "Although you are also a newcomer, as an immortal god, you are naturally different from them. Come with me!"

Yang Wu then followed.

Eaton led Yang Wu into the passageway beside the square, asking as he guided him, "May I ask how I should address you?"

"Um..." Yang Wu thought for a moment and said, "You can call me 'Xia'."

He is now at the top of the alien assassination list, and the Zerg even sent a Cosmic Venerable to take action against him, so he naturally cannot reveal any information about himself.

Although Cosmic Venerables are forbidden from entering the extraterritorial battlefield, if Yang Wu really exposes his identity, it's questionable whether those alien powerhouses will abide by the rules.

Therefore, Yang Wu was able to disguise himself as an immortal god and go to the battlefield outside the realm, which was a crucial part of his ability to deceive the alien races.

While the support metal life form Kash is far inferior to the Cloud Vine in defense and the Star-Eating Grass in attack, it is incredibly powerful in terms of possession and support.

Once Yang Wu is possessed by Kash, he will be able to perfectly mobilize the strongest power he can muster. His only weakness is his soul.

Yang Wu's will is now comparable to that of an immortal god, and with the blessing of the Heaven-Burning Mirror, even a cosmic venerable cannot see through Yang Wu's disguise, let alone those alien powerhouses on the extraterrestrial battlefield.

Soon, Yang Wu followed Eaton out of the passage and into a spacious hall.

Eaton looked at Yang Wu and said with a smile, "Xia, the war between these four top races involves a large number of cosmic warriors. The entire extraterritorial battlefield is divided into eleven regions, all of which are outside our human territory, hence the name extraterritorial battlefield. Normally, we will send batches of new recruits to a military base in one of the extraterritorial battlefields according to the assignment of the virtual universe system."

"However, as an immortal god, you still have some privileges; you can decide which battlefield and military base to go to!"

World Lord level powerhouses are insignificant among the human race, but immortal gods are a different story.

Every immortal god possesses an eternal lifespan, and naturally enjoys certain privileges when venturing into the outer battlefields.

"Are you familiar with these eleven extraterritorial battlefields?" Eaton asked with a smile. "If not, I can give you a brief introduction!"

Yang Wu nodded and said, "I hope to go to the Seventh Battlefield, Barracks Base 026!"

The Seventh Starfield Battlefield is a cosmic secret realm with a maximum diameter exceeding one million light-years.

After billions of years of slaughter, the danger of this cosmic secret realm itself has become negligible; the main threat comes from enemies among other alien races.

There are a total of one hundred military bases in the seventh battlefield, and each military base controls a different combat area.

For Yang Wu, one of the most important reasons for going to the extraterritorial battlefield was to collect enough resources to maintain the operation of the Time Palace.

Within the area of ​​the 026th Barracks Base in the Seventh Extraterrestrial Battlefield, there is an extremely advanced combat zone: the Yanji Continent.

The Yanji Continent itself is not particularly special, but among the many powerful kings active on the Yanji Continent, there is one extremely special existence: the 'Purple Bell King'.

Yang Wu, who was familiar with the original work, knew very well that the Purple Bell King possessed an extremely powerful treasure, the Demonic Sound Fire God Bell, which should have already reached the level of a top-tier treasure.

It should be noted that offering an ordinary treasure to a human race usually only yields a reward of 0.5-1.5 treasure points. Even a precious sealing treasure would only be worth 22 treasure points. However, the Demonic Sound Fire God Bell offers a whopping 89 treasure points.

As an offensive treasure, it not only possesses a set of offensive techniques but also defensive capabilities, capable of withstanding over 90% of soul and physical attacks.

It's safe to say that as long as Yang Wu can obtain the Purple Bell, he won't have to worry about the resource consumption for operating the Time Palace!

Of course, given Yang Wu's current strength, even dealing with a beginner-level King is somewhat dangerous, let alone dealing with the Purple Bell King, who has the strength of a peak King.

You should know that the Purple Bell King possesses a powerful treasure, and he has even killed a peak-level King-level expert!

However, Yang Wu was not in a hurry. His strength could continue to improve, and he would be able to deal with the Purple Bell King sooner or later.

and so……

For these reasons, Yang Wu set his sights on the Yanji Continent as his first target.

"No problem!" Eaton said with a smile, "The Seventh Starfield Battlefield has an average mortality rate of 96.8%, ranking third among the eleven regions of the outer battlefield. It's a pretty good training ground!"

Seeing that Yang Wu had chosen the correct battlefield and barracks base without any hesitation, he already knew that Yang Wu had a deep understanding of the battlefield, so he didn't explain further.

"Also, Xia, I need to perform an authorization ceremony for you. Do you need to prepare?"

Eaton smiled and said, "As an immortal god, your status in the extraterrestrial battlefield becomes even more important, mainly divided into three levels: 'Immortal Military Lord,' 'Marquis,' and 'King.' There are also differences in strength between each level!"

"Okay!" Yang Wu said with a smile.

"Then let's begin!"

As soon as Eaton finished speaking, a beam of blue light shot out from the screen on his arm and enveloped Yang Wu.

The rating of a virtual universe system certainly does not include the assistance of various external objects.

However, as a disciple of the Dragon Lord, Yang Wu had already made preparations in advance, so he didn't need to worry about being rated as a "World Lord Warrior".

"A minor title of Marquis!"

The protagonist's name will most likely be his future title, and I'm terrible at naming him. Can you all help me think of some names?
