179: 7th Commando

When Ye Chen appeared at the outpost, a cyan star approached, and a hoarse voice came from within.

"You must be the new member 'Abyss', right? Welcome to Outpost Three."

Ye Chen knew this should be the liaison arranged by the organization, so he quickly verified his identity.

"Yes, senior, I am 'Abyss', and I have received a mission from the organization to report to the outpost."

The cyan star said nothing more upon hearing this, merely stating indifferently:

"Just call me 'Tit', follow me."

Then, it directly moved forward, and Ye Chen quickly controlled his own Dark Star to follow.

This outpost was very crude, built only from substances similar to meteorites.

The beings in the God and Demon Battlefield all appeared as stars, so building a regular camp wouldn't make much sense.

However, this made Ye Chen feel more at ease; he wasn't accustomed to exposing his body to these old schemers.

Moreover, fighting with his God Domain could bring many benefits to Abyss, which was better than selling his body to complete missions.

Soon, Tit led Ye Chen to the meeting hall of the outpost. At this time, there were only a few people there, and a "Vast Great Sun" was hovering over the main seat.

That's right, it was a massive fireball emitting red-orange light.

This "Sun," seeing Tit bringing an unfamiliar star into the meeting room, let out a vast voice.

"It seems we have a new member joining. I am 'Golden Eagle', the highest commander of Outpost Three."

Ye Chen quickly introduced himself.

"I am 'Abyss', just finished training, and have been assigned by the organization to this outpost to receive missions."

Golden Eagle nodded slightly and did not introduce the other members, clearly indicating that Ye Chen, as a newcomer, was not yet qualified.

"In that case, you will be stationed at the Adamantite mining area. Although the contribution points are not many, it is safe."

Ye Chen felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this. He wasn't here to retire. While garrison missions were safe, they involved fewer battles and fewer contributions, which was not conducive to his rapid development plan.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Chen still spoke up to contend:

"Sir, my God Domain is quite special; it's not suitable for stable development and construction. It needs continuous combat to grow stronger, and my dependents are not weak. Even a typical Middle God might not be my opponent. I believe the organization considered this when assigning me here."

Ye Chen brought up the organization this time to add weight to his words, trying to leverage that big tiger skin.

Golden Eagle was slightly stunned, not expecting this kid to forgo a good rear-area assignment and insist on going to the front lines.

One should know that the God and Demon Battlefield was unlike any other; the competition was extremely fierce. A single misstep could result in the destruction of one's God Domain Core, rendering them useless.

He had assigned him to the stable rear with the intention of looking after a junior, but he didn't expect this kid to be so reckless.

He also wondered where he got the courage to say such things.

Golden Eagle did not dwell on it for too long. Since this kid wanted to go to the front lines, then let him go. There was a shortage of people there anyway, and perhaps this kid could create a miracle?

With that thought, Golden Eagle spoke coldly:

"In that case, you will report to the Seventh Assault Team and directly follow the captain's command from now on."

Ye Chen's objective was achieved, and he felt a slight joy in his heart.

He naturally heard the change in Golden Eagle's tone, but he didn't care.

After all, he was here to become stronger, not to engage in social niceties. In this world, ultimately, fists speak loudest.

Afterward, Golden Eagle motioned for Tit to lead Ye Chen out of the meeting room and to report to the Seventh Assault Team.

Outpost Three had a total of ten assault teams, each consisting of ten members.

Of course, casualties in the assault teams were frequent, and various squads were often understaffed.

The Seventh Assault Team, where Ye Chen was headed, currently had eight teammates. With Ye Chen joining, they were still short one person to be at full strength.

Tit led Ye Chen to a simple camp and shouted loudly:

"Seventh Assault Team, new person!"

As soon as the words fell, a "meteorite" emerged from the camp and responded:

"Coming, coming! The organization finally assigned us a new person."

With that, the meteorite roared at Ye Chen:

"Kid, I'm 'Vulture' of the Seventh Assault Team. Don't worry, we're family now!"

Listening to Vulture's straightforward words, Ye Chen felt a wave of speechlessness. This was a dark organization, and he was making it sound like a charity.

Tit greeted Vulture, handed Ye Chen over to him, and then left directly.

Vulture then led Ye Chen directly into the camp and introduced him:

"Our assault team is a life-risking job. Once there's an order from above, we have to complete it by any means necessary."

"But when there are no missions, we can arrange our time freely, so currently, I am the only one staying in the camp."

Ye Chen nodded understandingly after hearing this and introduced his basic situation to Vulture.

When Vulture learned that Ye Chen, despite being a Lower God, had physical qualities and God Domain combat power exceeding a Middle God, he was full of disbelief.

In his opinion, Ye Chen was just cannon fodder assigned by the organization because they were short-staffed.

But he didn't expose the bluff. With the team currently incomplete, he planned to test this kid's level once everyone was present.

Next, Vulture led Ye Chen to the teleportation point within the camp and had Ye Chen "bind" his information to the teleportation point so that he could directly teleport into the camp next time.

Afterward, Vulture and Ye Chen exchanged communication information and instructed Ye Chen to gather at the camp tomorrow morning to meet the other members of the organization.

Ye Chen naturally had no objections. After completing all this, he exited the God and Demon Battlefield.

Now that the training was complete, the concentration of negative energy in the Desolate Domain had significantly decreased, and staying longer would be pointless.

Ye Chen suddenly found himself in a state of idleness.

He moved his belongings back to his dormitory, and after setting everything up, he re-entered the Abyss.

At this time, the Devil's Exchange sent back good news: the cultist had finally relented and was willing to offer his world.

However, his appetite was a bit large; he hoped to become the World Master of the original world.

The devils dared not easily agree to this transaction and quickly reported to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen frowned slightly upon hearing this. World Master?

This title was quite grand. He hadn't even taken over that world yet, nor did he have the ability to directly appoint him as the World Master.

He instructed the devils to continue negotiating with him, to see if they could change the terms of the deal.

But that cultist was not giving up, stubbornly insisting on the World Master title.

After pondering, Ye Chen came up with a plan: the heretic would prioritize providing coordinates, and once Abyss took over that world, the heretic would be appointed as the Realm Master of that layer of Abyss.

However, that heretic was clearly uneasy about such an unsecured deal and hesitated, not agreeing.

Ye Chen felt a bit regretful, but in business, there are successes and failures.

He instructed the devil liaising with the heretic to continue tempting him; as long as he still had desires, he would eventually offer his world one day.
