Chapter 76: Expansion Pack — Mythic Revival!
A flash of white light passed before his eyes.
Ye Ze returned from the collapsing fourth layer of the Ancient Battlefield to the entrance of the large-scale dungeon.
“Ye Ze is out!”
The students and other personnel waiting outside noticed the disturbance at the dungeon entrance and cried out in alarm, drawing everyone’s attention.
Most of the looks directed at him were filled with shock and admiration, though there was also a trace of indignation, all of it coming from the students he had eliminated.
Wan Feipeng also came out from the Monitoring Division to greet him. The moment he saw Ye Ze, he burst into hearty laughter.
“Good lad! You really didn’t disappoint me!”
Not only had Ye Ze not disappointed him, he had given him an enormous surprise and won him more than enough face at the special training camp.
“Come on. I’ll take you to speak with Wei Zheng first.”
As for the inheritance the World Tree had left behind, no one yet knew what it actually was, and all of them were eager for Ye Ze to explain it.
Under the gaze of the gathered prodigy students...
Ye Ze entered the Monitoring Division and, under Wan Feipeng’s introduction, met several senior officials from headquarters and the heads of the major regions.
“The World Tree said the inheritance it left for the whole world is this seed.”
Ye Ze went straight to the point and handed the seed to Wei Zheng.
This item, which represented yet another new stage of the Transcendent Era, triggered another wave of shock from Wei Zheng and the senior officials.
“Mythic Revival?!”
“So this is the Myriad Spirit World’s final inheritance? Then Blue Star’s transcendent system is far weaker than we imagined...”
“So if we want to break through to the seventh rank and gain the power to contend against Demon Sovereign-class beings, we need to enter the age of Mythic Revival!”
“But how exactly are we supposed to use this seed?”
Once their shock passed, everyone found themselves troubled.
The seed displayed only its name and no other information at all...
Wei Zheng looked to Ye Ze. “Did the World Tree tell you how to use it?”
The World Tree? It had not said a thing...
Ye Ze looked baffled, then abruptly paused.
Wait. The World Tree knew he possessed Eye of Insight. Some information did not need to be spoken aloud to be conveyed...
“Let me take a look first.”
A golden light flashed in Ye Ze’s pupils, and the seed’s full information immediately became clear:
【Expansion Pack — Mythic Revival】
Description: The system of the Transcendent Era is fractured. Through the Revival Seed, the Mythic Era will gradually be restored in phases.
Activation Method: A sixth-rank Class User must plant the seed in any patch of land within this world.
Phase One: After the seed is planted, within 1 to 7 days, the first Mythic-grade Secret Realm will appear somewhere in the world. Once it is successfully cleared, Phase Two will begin.
Phase Two: Unlocked after Phase One is completed...
Phase Three: ...
Phase Four: ...
Note: Once Mythic Revival begins, it may draw greater attention from the Abyss and the Fiends.
————
So it really was not some one-click method to activate Mythic Revival...
Otherwise, the Myriad Spirit World would not have kept it until now.
Still, a Mythic-grade Secret Realm!
That left Ye Ze extremely excited.
Could it be that once all four phases were completed, Blue Star would enter the Mythic Era?
But for now, the later contents were still hidden, so there was no way to be sure.
At present, only Ye Ze could see the complete information. The other senior officials and regional heads could only study his expression and make guesses...
A thought stirred in Ye Ze’s mind.
He materialized the information panel before him, which previously only he could see, and shared it with the others.
“What detailed information!”
Wu Ming exclaimed in astonishment, prompting the others to nod in agreement... Ye Ze’s insight truly was formidable!
Although the contents were not especially extensive, every one of them read it with extreme care, afraid of overlooking even the slightest detail.
Several minutes later.
Wei Zheng, filled with emotion, was the first to praise him sincerely:
“Ye Ze, well done!”
“If you had not passed the World Tree’s trial, I fear we might never have found a way to initiate Mythic Revival in our lifetimes!”
Before this, let alone searching for it...
this was the first time any of them had even heard the term Mythic Revival!
As Wei Zheng spoke, he summoned a high-ranking officer, who brought forward a red box.
Wei Zheng personally bestowed upon Ye Ze the 【Honorary Gold Medal】.
Now that he had this medal, if Ye Ze ever wished to take life easy in the future, the military would provide him with top-grade living supplies every week.
He would even have an exclusive Hovercar to pick him up whenever he traveled...
“Not bad, kid. You’ve got the same treatment I do now!” Wan Feipeng said with a grin.
Wei Zheng then turned to Ye Ze and said with solemnity, “In the future, if you need anything at all, you may come directly to me!”
The weight of authority carried by those words was immense.
“Thank you, Commander Wei.”
Ye Ze rubbed the medal in his hand. Mm. It really was made of one hundred percent pure gold...
He then asked, “Commander Wei, when are we going to begin Mythic Revival?”
He was greatly looking forward to Mythic Revival!
And there was also the Mythic-grade Secret Realm. Even if he could not enter it, simply seeing Mythic-grade items emerge into the world would still be a feast for the eyes.
Upon hearing the question, Wei Zheng answered decisively at once:
“Now!”
“Now?”
Those words shocked the other senior officials. Was something this important not supposed to be discussed in meetings for several days first?
But Wei Zheng did not look as though he were joking in the slightest.
It seemed that after personally witnessing the death of the last living being of the Myriad Spirit World, he felt an even greater urgency in the war against the Abyss.
Now that a path to greater strength had appeared, he had to seize every moment.
“Time waits for no one!”
Wei Zheng let out a long sigh, then said, “Wan Feipeng, you plant it! Right here!”
“China can still barely hold the Abyss in check for now. If a day comes when we can no longer suppress it, then starting Mythic Revival at that point will be far too late!”
Hearing that, everyone nodded in agreement.
Naturally, Wan Feipeng was more than willing to usher in a new era. After all, he was one of those stuck at level 69.
If Mythic-grade Secret Realms offered any hope of advancing to the seventh rank, then he would certainly be the first to charge in!
“All right!”
Wan Feipeng agreed without hesitation. He stomped a small pit into the open ground with one foot and directly tossed the seed into it...
“Why isn’t anything happening?”
“Do you think it needs a little fertilizer?”
Just as they were speaking, the planted seed suddenly erupted with crimson light.
Rather than growing upward, the seed split into several rainbow-colored streams shaped like roots, stretching deep into Blue Star and roaming across every part of the world...
searching for the site where the first Mythic-grade Secret Realm would open!
【Expansion Pack — Mythic Revival is about to begin!】
That same sentence appeared on the personal data panels of everyone present.
“So the first Mythic-grade Secret Realm will appear within one to seven days?”
“That is soon!”
“We need to make preparations too. Who knows where it will appear!”
“...”
Once the seed had been planted, all that remained was to wait.
At this point, the special training camp had truly come to an end.
Wei Zheng and Wan Feipeng also settled the Military Merit Ye Ze had earned as an instructor.
Only then did Wei Zheng and Wu Ming learn that Wan Feipeng had actually promised extra Military Merit just to have Ye Ze beat up their people!
He immediately received another fierce round of disdain for it.
At the same time, with the additional thirty thousand Military Merit gained in exchange for the World Tree’s three questions, Ye Ze’s current total Military Merit had reached: 63,350!
Even among all members of the Demon Suppression Army, that made him exceptionally wealthy!
“Come on. I’ll take you to the Demon Suppression Army Treasury!”
Wei Zheng said with a smile as he patted Ye Ze on the shoulder.
At the same time, compensation was also given to all the trainees who had been eliminated from the special training camp:
Those eliminated in the first two rounds could choose any one item from the Second Treasury, while those eliminated in the third round could choose any one item from the Third Treasury.
After all, more than thirty people had been eliminated almost simultaneously in the final stage, making the ranking rewards extremely difficult to calculate.
This, at least, counted as an explanation to all the special training camp students.
