151: Infiltrating the Goblin City

Outside Vast Sea City, World Purifying Society base.

At the end of a dimly lit passage, a heavy metal door silently slid open.

Black Eye, with his remaining soldiers, stumbled in.

He ran into the bald man leading his subordinates, preparing for a mission.

Seeing this scene, the bald man was startled and asked, "Black Eye, what's going on with you all...?"

He was the captain of another squad and had a good relationship with Black Eye.

He knew Black Eye had gone on a mission a few days ago.

Black Eye had made thorough preparations, not only taking all his squad members but also the chief Formation Master from the branch.

"Sigh, don't even mention it, this time..."

Black Eye smiled bitterly and recounted the pre-arranged story.

The story was largely consistent with the real situation, with only minor alterations.

Nine truths and one lie are less likely to be exposed.

"You're lucky this time."

The bald man patted Black Eye's shoulder.

"The branch is about to undertake a large-scale operation, and it's a critical time for manpower, so the Hall Master probably won't make things difficult for you."

According to past practice, such heavy casualties would likely result in Black Eye's dismissal.

However, just now, headquarters issued an urgent mission requiring a large number of people.

In this situation, the Hall Master would likely not pursue his responsibility but instead ask him to quickly replenish his lost personnel.

"Thanks, brother."

Black Eye breathed a sigh of relief, bid farewell to the bald man, and walked towards the council hall where the Hall Master was located... Meanwhile, inside the trial tower.

After Lin Xingyu familiarized himself with the Four-Armed Clan's fighting style, he killed it.

A mechanical voice then sounded:

[Congratulations on passing the 60th floor, you have gained 100,000 points. Do you wish to continue?]

"Yes!"

As soon as Lin Xingyu finished speaking, the trial tower's space shifted, transforming into a rocky mountain area.

Two figures materialized a hundred meters in front of him.

These were two six-stage Three-Eyed Tribesmen.

Their appearance was similar to humans, except for a closed vertical eye on their foreheads.

One of them held a spear, while the other's hands were clasped, and an invisible Mental Energy fluctuation intertwined between them.

"Buzz—"

Without any warning, the vertical eyes on the foreheads of the two Three-Eyed Tribesmen suddenly opened!

Two invisible shockwaves, like heavy hammers, fiercely struck Lin Xingyu's Sea of Consciousness.

Lin Xingyu felt his head buzz, and a strong sense of dizziness washed over him.

After all, there was a two-stage difference between them.

If not for his higher basic genes and Mental Energy far exceeding those of his stage, this blow would have been enough to cause his mental breakdown and result in failure.

The moment he suffered the mental impact, the two Three-Eyed Clan Warriors moved.

The spear-wielder charged out like an arrow from a bow, his spear whistling as it thrust directly at Lin Xingyu.

The other Three-Eyed Clan Warrior pushed his hands forward violently, and powerful Mental Energy surged out.

An invisible pressure came from all directions, attempting to confine Lin Xingyu in place, making him a living target for the spear.

"Not good!"

Lin Xingyu bit the tip of his tongue, forcing himself to regain clarity.

Under his full activation, the star ray shuttle vibrated at a high frequency, shattering the Mental Energy barrier that bound him.

After regaining his ability to move, four star ray shuttles met the enemy's spear.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"

A series of dense collision sounds rang out, and the enemy's forward momentum was abruptly halted.

At the same time, the other four star ray shuttles bypassed the spear-wielder in front and went straight for the Mental Energy user in the back.

The Three-Eyed Tribesman's expression changed drastically, and he rapidly waved his hands in front of him, setting up layer upon layer of Mental Energy shields.

"Buzz—"

The star ray shuttle once again emitted high-frequency vibrations.

This was a technique from the "Thousand Evolution Art" specifically designed to counter Mental Energy.

Under high-frequency vibration, invisible ripples appeared around the star ray shuttle, disrupting the surrounding force field.

The shield constructed by the Mental Energy user also collapsed.

The next second, under the opponent's horrified gaze, the star ray shuttle pierced through his body... After dealing with the Mental Energy user, the four star ray shuttles immediately joined the ranks to besiege the spear-wielder.

Facing the fast-paced attacks of the star ray shuttle, the spear-wielder desperately resisted but was still overwhelmed.

Two fists are no match for four hands, let alone eight star ray shuttles.

After several rounds, his defense was breached by the star ray shuttle, and his chest was pierced.

The mechanical voice sounded again.

[Congratulations on clearing the 61st floor. Do you wish to continue?]

"No!"

It was getting late, and Lin Xingyu was a bit tired, so he immediately exited the challenge.

Next time, he would only gain points after passing the 70th floor.

With his current combat power, he couldn't do it yet and planned to come back after upgrading.

The points he gained this time were enough to exchange for two bodhi fruits.

He exchanged them directly, choosing Zhu Lang City, the closest to the Goblin Secret Realm, as the delivery address, planning to pick them up when he came out of the Secret Realm.

Lin Xingyu intended to consume the bodhi fruits exchanged this time directly to enhance his Comprehension Ability.

Under the careful care of the treant, the last bodhi fruit finally sprouted.

Once it grew up, he would have an endless supply of bodhi fruits... Early the next morning.

Lin Xingyu and the others reappeared in the Goblin Secret Realm.

They used the heaven-obscuring pearl's disguise ability to disguise themselves as goblins.

This was the Goblin Secret Realm, and they couldn't show themselves as humans.

The group traveled all the way towards the nearest goblin city...

Half a day later, they arrived at the goblin city closest to the rift.

This was a cyberpunk-style city.

Metal buildings were scattered in an orderly fashion, and conveyor belts and pipes filled the streets.

The smell of oil permeated the air, and the rumbling sound of machinery never ceased.

Lin Xingyu and the others, disguised as goblins, easily blended into the city.

At this moment, they were strolling on the streets, curiously observing everything around them.

Various types of mechs whizzed past them from time to time.

Goblins had utilized mechs to the extreme, with mechs doing everything.

Shops related to mechs could be seen everywhere on the roadside, selling, repairing, modifying—everything was available.

"The language potion launched by the Spiritual Energy Research Institute is really effective. I can actually understand the words on their signs."

Lin Xingyu nodded in satisfaction.

The language potion was a major invention of the Spiritual Energy Research Institute. After taking it, one could communicate with different races without barriers.

The specific principle was unknown, but it was said to have been jointly developed by Mental Energy and mysterious Evolvers.

"Look at that sign, doesn't it look like my old wrench? Has my legend already spread to the Goblin Secret Realm?"

Wang Ledian shouted, pointing to a shop on the roadside.

The others looked over and found that the shop's sign was a giant wrench shape.

It was indeed quite similar to Wang Ledian's former spirit seed, only countless times larger.

"Oh, come on, that's just a repair shop!"

Wang Chiyao said with disdain.

This guy always tried to flatter himself.

"Let's find a tavern to gather information."

Lin Xingyu suggested.

The goblin race loved drinking, and taverns were ubiquitous on the roadside.

To gather information, one should go to a tavern; that's how it's always portrayed in TV shows, so it must be the right place to go...
