The vastness of the universe!

A massive amount of information flowed through the [Scavenger Exclusive Chat Group].

With a chat group of a million people, over 99+ messages were jumping every second.

Amidst these messages, Chen Ming quickly grasped the key points.

First, every player who could appear in this chat group, without exception, possessed the hidden class of "Scavenger".

Second, besides completing the clearance/conquest missions issued by "Eternal", Scavengers could also earn points by hunting down projections of Evil Gods or anomalous players.

Third, and most importantly, in the cosmic starry sky, besides "Eternal", there existed other game worlds similar to "Eternal", such as "Myriad Worlds", "God Abandoned", "Ragnarok", and so on.

Furthermore, these games were not at peace with each other.

Instead, they all wanted to devour one another.

And the conquest missions for Scavengers to earn points required them to compete for resources against players from other game worlds.

"Myriad Worlds", "God Abandoned", "Ragnarok"...

"If I recall correctly, when I first obtained the [supreme sealed left hand], the wills of these game worlds had all attempted to purchase it from me."

Speaking of which, Chen Ming couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.

One could imagine, if the will of "Eternal" hadn't intervened back then.

If he had sold the [supreme sealed left hand] to these game worlds.

He would likely have been instantly branded a traitor by the game will of "Eternal", and what awaited him would have been endless pursuit by Scavengers.

One had to know that every player chosen by "Eternal" to become a Scavenger was a top-tier powerhouse among players.

In the [Scavenger Exclusive Chat Group], Chen Ming saw several players who were famous in his previous life, and among them, there was no shortage of gods.

"As expected, the existence of 'Eternal' is far more mysterious than I imagined."

"'Eternal', 'Myriad Worlds', 'God Abandoned', 'Ragnarok'... as well as various Evil Gods, Ancient Gods, and other game worlds that might still exist..."

Chen Ming took a deep breath, his eyes becoming profound.

In "Eternal" alone, the number of players was calculated in the trillions.

One could imagine how many powerhouses existed within the cosmic starry sky and the endless plane worlds.

"Although I seem powerful now, compared to those powerhouses who have existed for endless ages, I am merely a slightly larger ant."

"I must become stronger, strong enough to control my own destiny."

While speaking, Chen Ming took a deep breath and closed the Scavenger class panel. Immediately, he chose to exit the dungeon.

"Boom, boom!!"

A white pillar of light descended from the sky, enveloping Chen Ming and causing him to disappear instantly from the spot.

When he opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the manor where Dragon Soul was located.

"This is the class transfer token you wanted."

Chen Ming didn't waste any words and directly tossed the [Spirit of Life] to [Dragon Soul - Fate Woman].

Looking at the crystal in her hand that radiated a rich aura of life, [Dragon Soul - Fate Woman] could not suppress the excitement on her face: "Thank you!"

[Dragon Soul - Sword God] stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said: "The Great Calamity Player, I won't thank you with empty words. I'll have someone transfer the promised reward to you immediately."

"Hmm!"

Chen Ming nodded, and then, ignoring the attempts of the Dragon Soul members to make him stay, he turned and left directly.

The manor where Dragon Soul was located was in the inner area of Myriad Beast City, and the surroundings were extremely prosperous.

The sounds of various peddling and team recruitment were endless.

"It just so happens that I can use this time to go and accept the quest for the city building token."

While speaking, Chen Ming walked quickly towards a building located on the outskirts of Myriad Beast City.

...

A moment later.

In the eastern district of Myriad Beast City, outside a somewhat old wooden house.

The wooden house was already very old, and its walls were covered with dark green moss.

"This should be the place!"

Looking at the dilapidated wooden house in front of him, Chen Ming pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as he stepped inside the wooden house, he saw a large number of bottles, jars, and various experimental instruments scattered throughout the narrow space.

The air was also permeated with a strong, foul stench.

At the end of the wooden house, a Gnome wearing a white lab coat was focused on his research, and he hadn't even noticed that Chen Ming had walked in.

After a full moment, accompanied by a 'bang' explosion sound.

The Gnome turned around with a disappointed look: "Failed again, lacking core experimental materials..."

He had only finished half his sentence when he noticed Chen Ming in the room.

"Who are you?"

A look of wariness appeared on the Gnome's ugly face.

"I'm telling you, you're trespassing, and even if I'm a Gnome, I have the right to self-defense."

The Gnome warily pulled a decayed greatsword from his backpack.

Gnomes had a very low status in "Eternal", only slightly better than a Goblin, the type that even a dog passing by could step on.

In some main cities, the Gnome race didn't even have human rights.

"I have no malicious intent!"

Chen Ming waved his hand and pulled up a chair to sit down on his own.

Then, he looked at the ID above the Gnome's head.

[Gnome - Salsi Lv24.]

"It's him!"

Chen Ming's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm.

"What exactly do you want? I'm telling you, I'm part of the Gnome Alliance. If you dare to hurt me, the Gnome Alliance won't let you off."

Salsi threatened in a low voice.

Chen Ming waved his hand and said indifferently: "I've said it before, I have no malicious intent. I've come to find you this time for an item in your possession."

"In return, I can give you a sum of gold coins."

"Really?"

Hearing the words "gold coins", Salsi's entire eyes lit up.

His class was the very rare Alchemist.

It was well known that Alchemist was one of the most money-burning classes in "Eternal".

Whether it was skill improvement or learning/purchasing corresponding knowledge scrolls, it required a large amount of gold coins.

And the vast majority of Gnomes, because of their low combat power, were dirt poor.

Naturally, this included Salsi.

"You... what do you want from me?"

Salsi swallowed his saliva and said in a low voice.

Chen Ming smiled at him: "Open your backpack."

"Fine!"

Salsi hesitated for a moment, then took the initiative to open his backpack.

Inside, it was piled with miscellaneous alchemy items.

Chen Ming just glanced at it and quickly noticed the item he needed.

It was a ring covered in rust, with a string of thorn flowers carved inside the ring.

[Mysterious Ring]

[Quality: ???]

[Description: A ring sealed by magic, everything is unknown.]

...

"You want the ring?"

Salsi looked at Chen Ming with a puzzled expression.

This ring was something he had accidentally picked up in the wild, and at first, he treated it as a treasure.

After all, an item worth sealing with magic couldn't possibly be of low quality.

However, after some research and finding nothing, he threw the ring into his backpack to collect dust.

"Speak, how many gold coins do you need?" Chen Ming said indifferently.

Salsi, who had come back to his senses, stared at Chen Ming for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "I... I want one million... no, I want one billion gold coins."

The moment his words fell...

"Pfft!!"

A sound of breaking through the air rang out, an arrow flew rapidly, grazing Salsi's scalp.

"You dirty and ugly dog, I've given you some face, haven't I?"
