Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 314 Blood Blade Squad

After seeing Ward off, Yang Wu checked the emails he had received.

In just a short while, Yang Wu had received nearly a hundred emails.

Among these emails, some warmly invited him to join the team, some wanted to get to know him, and some even wanted him to be the captain of their elite team.

"It seems that the strength of a newly appointed Marquis is not weak in this 026 military base!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

After some consideration, Yang Wu directly contacted a well-known divine team on the Yanji Continent, the "Blood Blade Team".

The "Blood Blade Squad" is currently resting at the military base, so they can meet with Yang Wu immediately.

Therefore, after sending the email, Yang Wu quickly arranged to meet Blood Blade Hou, the captain of the Blood Blade Squad, at the restaurant.

……

A moment later, Yang Wu arrived at an extremely luxuriously decorated hall, a place exclusively for immortal gods.

There are many immortal gods within the area of ​​Barracks Base 026, but only a few can stay in the barracks base to rest and recuperate.

Therefore, although there are tens of thousands of tables in the hall, there are only a few hundred people scattered around at this time, making it seem quite empty.

Yang Wu stood at the door and looked around. Soon he saw someone waving at him from next to a dining table, so he walked over.

Seated at this dining table was a figure radiating an astonishing aura of power.

This person was dressed in blood-red armor, his face was covered with golden scales, and a slightly curved, golden horn on his forehead resembled a scimitar. He looked like a battle blade exuding a fierce and murderous aura.

Clearly, this is a powerful being from the Blade Clan, a human race.

The Blade Clan is a rather unique race within the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. While the Blade Clan members are not particularly gifted, they possess an extremely resilient character.

Almost none of them pursued power or enjoyment; they only wanted to embark on the path of the strong.

Upon seeing Yang Wu approach, Blood Blade Marquis, exuding a powerful aura of killing intent, stood up abruptly. His golden eyes stared intently at Yang Wu, occasionally flashing with a sharp, knife-like glint.

"You are 'Xia'?" Bloodblade Marquis's voice was quite deep.

Unfortunately, with Yang Wu's current level of cultivation, willpower, and the protection of a top-tier soul-type treasure, how could he possibly be affected by an ordinary Marquis-level immortal?

"Greetings, Bloodblade Marquis!" Yang Wu said calmly.

"Hmm?" Bloodblade Marquis was surprised to see that Yang Wu was unaffected.

Because Yang Wu was a newcomer, Bloodblade Marquis couldn't help but want to test him.

To his surprise, the astonishing murderous aura he had accumulated over tens of thousands of years in the extraterrestrial battlefield had absolutely no effect on the newcomer before him. It should be noted that even a peak-level Marquis would be slightly affected by this aura.

For this reason, Bloodblade Marquis couldn't help but think more highly of Yang Wu.

This is enough to show that Yang Wu is extremely outstanding in terms of consciousness and willpower, and such a person is more likely to survive in this cruel battlefield outside the territory.

"Haha!" Bloodblade Marquis laughed heartily, looking at Yang Wu and saying, "I am the captain of the Divine Spirit Squad, number 026-2568348, with the title 'Bloodblade'!"

Bloodblade Marquis said with considerable pride, "Within the entire 026th Barracks base, among the human race's own forces, our Bloodblade Squad is strong enough to rank in the top ten. Joining us will make it easier for you to earn military merits, and your chances of surviving dangerous situations will be much higher..."

Yang Wu smiled and said, "I look forward to your guidance in the future, Captain!"

"Uh..." Bloodblade Marquis, who was about to continue introducing his team, paused slightly and stopped speaking abruptly.

So you agree?

Bloodblade Marquis was somewhat taken aback at this moment.

The Bloodblade Squad was resting at the military base during this time. Upon learning that a new recruit of the Marquis-level Immortal God had appeared, he immediately sent out an invitation email.

It should be noted that although there are many immortal gods on the extraterrestrial battlefield, new recruits are quite rare, and most new recruits are below the immortal level.

What's more, he's a recruit who's even rarer, a marquis-level recruit?

The Bloodblade Squad had some members who had retired, and it wasn't full yet, so he tried sending out invitations.

I thought the chances weren't very high, but I didn't expect to succeed so easily!

In fact, the reason Yang Wu chose to join the Blood Blade Squad was...

Firstly, because the other side is resting at their barracks base, it won't waste my time.

Secondly, it was also because this Bloodblade Marquis possessed the strength of a peak Marquis, ranking among the top of the many divine teams that extended invitations to him.

There are quite a few divine teams active in the Yanji Continent region, but the Yanji Continent is divided into the main continent and thousands of islands. Most divine teams rarely go to the main continent. Although the Blood Blade team is strong enough to not dominate the main continent, they are able to survive well there.

Therefore, upon meeting Blood Blade Marquis in person, Yang Wu immediately agreed.

Since you're going to join the team anyway, you might as well just get it over with.

As for his relationship with his squad members, Yang Wu was not worried. With the military control system and the existence of the virtual universe, the human camp was still extremely united on the extraterritorial battlefield.

"Haha..." After a slight moment of surprise, Bloodblade Marquis welcomed him with a smile, "Xia, welcome to our Bloodblade Squad!"

Immediately, Bloodblade Marquis personally poured a glass of fruit wine and handed it to Yang Wu, saying, "Let's sit down, drink, and chat. I'll also introduce you to the other members of our team!"

As Bloodblade Marquis spoke, he transmitted his divine power telepathically to another location, saying, "Come here, everyone!"

Just as Yang Wu took the wine glass, he saw seven figures walking quickly towards him from not far away.

These people were either tall and burly, or had cold expressions, or were charming and alluring. Powerful auras of law emanated from them, and the surrounding space seemed to be affected.

Among them were demons, dressed in soft purple gauze robes, with a fluffy tail behind them and purple eyes.

There were burly, golden-furred Kahuns ape-men;

There are also winged people with wings...

As the seven people walked over, they all pulled out chairs and sat down.

All nine people gathered.

"Let me introduce you." Bloodblade Marquis pointed at Yang Wu and smiled, "This is Xia, the newest member of our team, who has the strength of a Marquis at the initial stage."

"A low-level Marquis? Wow, Captain, you're amazing! You actually managed to recruit such a powerful expert!" A young man from the Winged Race, who looked quite similar to an Earthling but had wings on his back, exclaimed in surprise.

Bloodblade Marquis ignored the other party and instead looked directly at Yang Wu, introducing him with a smile: "The one who just spoke is 'Assassin,' an extremely powerful martial artist with the strength of a high-level Immortal Army Lord. Don't let his carefree personality fool you; his strength is truly formidable!"

"Before you joined, our Bloodblade Squad consisted of eight people, including myself. Our assassin was easily among the top three. Don't be fooled by the fact that he hasn't achieved immortality yet; his strength is completely comparable to a low-level Immortal God!"

"Immortal Army Lord, high level, comparable to Marquis, low level?" Yang Wu couldn't help but take another look at the winged youth.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the core members of Virtual Universe Company can fight beyond their level as easily as eating and drinking; aren't they all geniuses?

In the battles of geniuses and the battles of the strong, almost all of them would rank among the top 1,000 in the entire universe.

Moreover, Bloodblade Marquis mentioned immortality, which means that the fact that the other party is comparable to the initial level of Marquis includes immortality.

"He doesn't possess immortality yet, but his strength is comparable to a low-level Marquis. It seems he has some tricks up his sleeve!"

Yang Wu thought to himself, but he didn't care too much. After all, there were too many geniuses around him, and which one didn't have some special methods and opportunities?

"Captain's too much!" Seeing Yang Wu looking at him, the assassin greeted him with a smile, "Xia, welcome to our Blood Blade Squad!"

"Thank you!" Yang Wu replied with a smile.

"Xia, let me introduce you to the other team members!" Captain Bloodblade Marquis continued.

He then pointed to an immortal deity over six meters tall and introduced him: "Storm, the vice-captain of our Bloodblade Squad, a powerful high-level Marquis-rank martial artist. If he goes all out, even I might not be able to defeat him!"

The immortal deity's entire body resembled crimson rock, with two curved, pointed horns on its forehead, a rhombus-shaped crystal mark between its brows, and a dragon tail covered in scales behind it. It was a member of the Yanbolu tribe.

After Bloodblade Marquis finished his introduction, the Flame Brahma clansman named "Storm" gave Yang Wu a simple and honest smile.

Yang Wu smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Bewitching Heart, an extremely skilled illusionist, a high-ranking military lord!"

Bloodblade Marquis sighed, "There are very few immortal gods below the Marquis level who can block her illusions! You should also know... the Demon Clan is one of the most suitable races among the human population to take the path of illusionists."

The stunningly beautiful woman, draped in a soft purple gauze robe and sporting a fluffy tail, looked at Yang Wu with her purple eyes and said gently, "Welcome to the Bloodblade Squad!"

"Thank you!" Yang Wu nodded back to the other party.

The Illusionary Spirit King, with whom he had once crossed paths, was a great being among the demons. With the Illusionary Spirit King's help, Yang Wu's will underwent a significant breakthrough.

The demon race is indeed suited to the path of illusionists, but when it comes to the most suitable lineage for illusionists, it is definitely the future Earthlings.

It should be noted that after Earth was transformed by the Mountain-Sitting Guest, the soul potential of Earthlings was extremely high, and their mental state was easily elevated. If they were to follow the path of illusionists, they would be absolutely terrifying.

However, now is not the time for Earthlings to show their true colors.

"But that day is not far off!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

"Iceberg, a powerful high-level Immortal Military Lord!" Bloodblade Marquis continued, "His spear skills are enough to strike fear into the hearts of countless alien races!"

A silver-haired man with a cold expression, looking unapproachable, merely nodded slightly when he saw Yang Wu.

Yang Wu nodded slightly in response.

"Haha... Don't let his cold exterior fool you, once you spend enough time with him you'll find he's surprisingly easy to get along with!"

"Poison!" Bloodblade Marquis pointed to a thin man shrouded in a black robe and introduced him, "A mysterious apothecary, a high-ranking military commander."

"This is our team's prized possession. He concocted a potion that can even slightly erode the immortal body of a Marquis-level Immortal, and its effects are even more potent against ordinary Immortal Gods! The fact that our team was able to obtain this potion from the Poisoner at such a low price is incredibly lucky!"

"Immortal gods are already difficult to kill; with this poison potion, we can inflict even greater damage on our enemies!"

Yang Wu looked at the other party, and he did not expect that the other party's nickname was exactly the same as that of the World Lord-level alchemist that Luo Feng had just entered the extraterrestrial battlefield in the original work.

However, it's not surprising that one in ten pharmacists is nicknamed "poison."

Compared to martial artists and spiritual practitioners, pharmacists' methods are far more unpredictable and virtually impossible to defend against.

Moreover, alchemists at the World Lord level are already extremely rare, let alone those at the Immortal level? Unexpectedly, there is one in this Blood Blade Squad.

If this "poison" had enough wealth, it might be the most terrifying member of the Blood Blade Squad.

"King Kong, a powerful high-level martial artist who commands armies!"

Yang Wu smiled and looked at a burly man from the ape-man tribe, who grinned back.

"The last one, Dark Moon, is the only mentalist in our team, and also possesses the strength of a high-level military lord!"

Yang Wu looked at the last immortal deity with a faint smile on her face. At this moment, she looked at Yang Wu with a little curiosity.

Assassin, Storm, Bewitching Heart, Iceberg, Poison, Vajra, and Dark Moon—these seven are the members of this elite divine squad. Even the weakest among them possesses the strength of a high-level military lord, making them an absolute elite force.

With Bloodblade Marquis, a peak Marquis-level expert, leading the team, they were indeed able to navigate this brutal extraterrestrial battlefield with ease.

As long as you don't encounter any alien king-level immortals, there is basically no danger.

Just then, a curious voice rang out.

"summer."

The assassin put down his wine cup and asked with a smile, "You've only just arrived at the extraterritorial battlefield, yet you already possess the strength of a low-level Marquis. May I ask what your military merit rank is?"

"My military merit quota?" Yang Wu smiled slightly.

Every soldier who participates in the extraterritorial battlefield has a quota of military merits. They must accumulate enough military merits to gain "freedom" and can choose to retire from the extraterritorial battlefield or continue fighting.

Before fulfilling their military merit quota, soldiers must obediently follow military orders.

Upon hearing the assassin's words, the rest of the Blood Blade Squad looked over, and even the usually icy Iceberg put down his wine glass.

Although they were not yet clear about Yang Wu's exact strength, they could make a rough judgment based on his military merits.

"My military merits amount to one trillion."
