The Era of Gods Chapter 125 – Blood Count Blood Knight

Chapter 125: Chapter 125 Blood Count Blood Knight

Generally, the rule suppression based on strength counterbalance isn’t equal, but beings of the same rank can basically resist almost all rule suppression from an Indigenous Gods Nation of the same rank, meaning that a God Country with Weak Divine Power has no effect on a New God with the same level of Weak Divine Power.

Under such circumstances, New Gods can directly rush into an Indigenous Gods Nation, open their Divine Realm to summon followers, and attack the Indigenous Gods Nation, striking directly at the enemy’s core.

This is the greatest advantage New Gods have over Native deities—they can easily and casually emerge en masse and strike at the dragon’s heart, something completely unimaginable for Native deities.

The metal platform flew above the crowd and stopped. Colonel Xie stepped off the metal platform, vanished in a flash, and reappeared on a high platform not far away. Her face seemed beautiful, yet it gave off an incredibly cold aura, and her sharp gaze made people dare not linger on her curvaceous body.

“Starting now, you are members of my Fury Flame Team. The rules and your rankings within the team have already been sent to your wristbands when you were brought here. You have five minutes to get familiar with them.”

Everyone immediately looked down and activated their wristbands. A screen lit up, displaying a new message that wasn’t there before. Lin Xiao immediately began to read it carefully.

“Congratulations Lin Xiao, you have become a member of the Fury Flame Team. Please carefully read the following information.”

Below was a lengthy list of rules regarding the Fury Flame Team, as well as his positioning within it.

The rules were simple: all members of the Fury Flame Team were divided into four different levels based on their previous ranking and the instructor’s evaluation of their potential. These levels corresponded to the lower-tier, comprising all unseated students; the intermediate-tier, comprised of all Stone and Black Iron level contestants; the superior-tier, which included all Bronze contestants and some Silver Level contestants with insufficient potential assessment; and the top-tier, which consisted of a few Golden contestants and a small portion of Silver contestants with a high potential assessment.

Lin Xiao, on the other hand, had crossed over his original intermediate-tier and had been evaluated as superior-tier.

His expression remained unchanged, as it was expected. After all, the beautiful colonel had spent two Silver Contestants to exchange for him; it was impossible for him to stay in the middle-tier.

In fact, he was relieved not to be placed in the top-tier. That would have been disastrous. This way, it was better.

After reading the rules, the next section detailed the very crucial internal team elimination laws.

Not just the Fury Flame Team, but all teams would initially eliminate a large number of team members during this stage. Then, the remaining elites would compete against other teams.

And the elimination rules…

Lin Xiao couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

Actual combat!

For the internal elimination of the Fury Flame Team, the instructor would utilize the resources of the First Expeditionary Army to summon creatures from Different Domains to invade the Divine Realms of all team members.

Yes, unlike the academy’s use of simulation battles, the military teams started with real invasions. They marked the invasions with generous rewards, leaving it up to individuals to choose the difficulty level. Naturally, if you wanted more and better rewards, you had to choose a higher difficulty invasion, which was quite dangerous.

Keep in mind, this invasion meant guiding creatures from the Outland to directly invade the Divine Realm and attack it. If defeated, the Divine Realm would sustain massive damage, which would greatly impact their strength and might lead to a steep decline in power from just one failure.

Not only that, even if you win, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re better off. These losses are real, and once a follower or Clan member dies, they’re truly dead.

Having read all this, Lin Xiao had only one thought—

It’s worthy of the military; even a competition is so merciless. They’re ruthless to their enemies and even more so to themselves.

Even Lin Xiao felt a bit apprehensive after reading it, and he estimated that quite a few students were now regretting agreeing to join a military team.

However, the rewards provided by the military in such a high-risk environment were also incredibly tempting.

Dozens of Ancient Cards, 99+ Divinity Cards, 99+ Divine Realm Cards, and all sorts of Golden Mythical Quality Cards, all being 99+. What was most alluring was the additional Card slot, which was marked as exclusive to the military teams, meaning only the military teams had it, not the academy teams.

Lin Xiao believed that this additional Card slot was derived from Super War Fortresses extracting Subspace energy and converting it into Origin Force, which couldn’t be stored and was only available at the major Super War Fortresses, unique to the military.

However, because it was created by converting Subspace energy extracted by Super War Fortresses, even the major armies of the entire fortress didn’t have much to distribute. Even among the officers, one had to perform great deeds to obtain it.

The five minutes passed quickly, and Colonel Xie’s crisp and forceful voice rang out again:

“I believe you have finished reading. Now you should have an idea. I ll give you one day to adjust your Divine Realms. After one day the internal elimination will begin. Now I’ll call your names, those who hear me come forward.”

She paused for a moment, her gaze fell on a standout figure in the crowd, who was surrounded by a small empty circle, and read out:

“Qin Fengyan!”

This was the only female among the five men and one woman who had come with Wu Zhonglin.

“Cao HanYu.”

One of the nine Golden Throne contestants.

“Shen Yuexin!”

The rich little aunt.

“Du Feiyang!”

Also a Silver Contestant.

“Ge Qingfeng!”

Another Silver Contestant.

“Lin Xiao!”

Yet another…

“Here!”

The unusual looks from those around him made him realize he needed to respond promptly.

“Lin Huan!”

Another Silver Contestant.

Then she called out a few more names. In total, seven Silver Contestants, two Gold Contestants, including him, ten people were called out. They lined up in a row in front of her, and Xie Yufei, with her hands clasped behind her back, said aloud:

“After the internal team elimination a day from now, as long as you can hold on, you will each receive an additional two Five Star Mythical Quality Cards on top of the regular rewards.”

“If there’s nothing else, you are dismissed for now.”

His gaze swept over the ten in front of him and he said,

“The few of you, stay behind.”

The gathered students began to disperse, and soon only those ten were left. Xie Yufei, with her hands clasped behind her back, walked past them before stopping in front of Lin Xiao, who was standing at the edge. Her beautiful but thorny face faced him directly, and the immense pressure made him want to look away, but he knew he couldn’t afford to, so he forced himself to withstand the pressure and met her gaze head-on, staring straight into her cool and gorgeous visage.

“Full of courage but lacking in killing intent!”

After a moment, she commented indifferently and her expressionless face shifted her gaze away.

Turning back to her original position, she spoke in a deep voice,

“You ten are the strongest and most potential members of my team. I have high expectations for you, and accordingly, the tests I put you through will be tougher. I will assign specific missions for you, and I hope you’re mentally prepared.”

“Damn it!”

Lin Xiao internally lamented; getting special treatment from a teacher at school was a good thing, but in the military, it definitely wasn’t.

Indeed, being seen in a different light by a senior officer was good because, if you completed their tasks, the rewards were better, but the level of danger was considerably high. He didn’t believe for a second that her tests would be easy; they were bound to be tasks of a much higher difficulty.

But a superior’s kindness was impossible to refuse. Once she had spoken, it was practically already confirmed; resistance was futile.

“Alright, you may also disband now. Tasks will be sent to you tomorrow morning, so get well prepared,” she said.

As soon as she finished speaking, a light door appeared in front of her. She stepped through it and disappeared.

This was a location teleportation ability that came with Divine Enthronement of a True God, requiring no specific conditions and could be released a certain number of times each day at will.

Once the instructor left, the ten people present suddenly relaxed. They looked at each other but didn’t speak a word.

Only Shen Yuexin approached him, her breathtakingly beautiful face showing a hint of curiosity as she asked,

“I remember your strength being rather mediocre, so how did you manage to catch the instructor’s special attention? To the point where she would even trade two Silver Students for you?”

The others, upon hearing this, turned curious glances his way, including the two Golden Contestants, Qin Fengyan and Cao HanYu, who were equally curious.

He scratched his head, thought for a moment, and then spread his hands as he said,

“Maybe it’s my… potential that caught the instructor’s attention, I guess.”

That was the only reason; there was nothing else he could think of.

“Your potential?”

She blinked her big eyes, asking with a touch of curiosity,

“Can you show it to me?”

He shook his head,

“Not convenient right now.”

“Then, when would be convenient?”

After thinking for a bit, he replied,

“When there’s no one around, I guess.”

“Yi”

As soon as the words left his mouth, several male students nearby who had been eavesdropping looked at him with odd expressions.

A few seconds later, the two female students also showed sudden realizations, one with a look of disdain, while Shen Yuexin’s pretty face turned bright red as she grabbed his waist and twisted it fiercely.

“Ouch!”

“How dare you try to flirt with me, do you want to die?”

“What are you thinking? I meant 1 would show you when there’s no one around.”

“Still daring to flirt with me? I’ll tell your grandmother.”

Lin Xiao:

Back in the dormitory, he rubbed his somewhat sore waist and lay on the bed looking at the ceiling speechlessly.

But as he thought about it, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. Recalling Shen Yuexin’s already impossibly beautiful face blushing with shyness, it was truly heart-fluttering.

He couldn’t help but smack his lips, feeling somewhat stirred.

If it had been any other time, he might have plucked up the courage to ask her out, but now time was too tight; there wasn’t any to spare.

Collecting his feelings, he entered the Divine Realm.

With only one day to prepare, which equated to less than a year in the Divine Realm, he had to get ready within this year.

It was simple: he had to modify the Black Scale Naga race for them to undergo a transformative evolution.

This was the only way for him to rapidly increase his strength in a short time. Fortunately, he now had twenty-nine units of Creation Energy at his disposal, along with a Mythical Quality Talent Card and a Specialty Card. Coupled with his previous experience in modifying Fishmen and modern knowledge of genetics, he was confident he could create an ideal direction for the Naga’s evolution.

First, he issued a Divine-mandate to soothe the Naga to prevent any panic when he began the modifications.

Then he took out the Black Scale Naga Species Card from the Divine Realm and tossed it into the realm, after which he took out the Mythical Talent Card – – Adaptation to Harsh Environment, and the Mythical Specialty Card — Advanced Toughness. He decomposed both, extracting their essence.

He decided to keep the two cards without acting yet; he needed to use the Creation Energy to first adjust the Black Scale Naga’s genes fundamentally.

Having had the experience of adjusting the Fishmen before,
