Chapter 626: Chapter 626
626: Chapter 606: The Stage of the Future 626: Chapter 606: The Stage of the Future The Knight Trial Secret Realm, or the “Everlasting Abyss” Secret Realm under the Rust Knight, has its greatest uniqueness in its “trial” characteristic.
Although the domain still focuses on combat, professionals can feel the rare “friendliness” within the Secret Realm.
You can quit at any time, fights don’t necessarily end in life or death, and the attack patterns of magic monsters are quite suitable for “trials”…
Assault-type Animated Armors, Shadow-assassin’s Ghost-creatures, Stone-statue Ghosts and Minotaurs in chaotic battles can greatly enhance the practical experience of the trial participants.
The rewards it offers are also considered fair, especially for low-level professionals.
For ordinary professionals, most Secret Realms don’t have rewards, just some extra “pollution” after leaving.
Considering all this, the Knight’s Secret Realm is simply a great and friendly environment for freshmen, which has contributed to its popularity.
Even the college entrance examination for the special professions in the Ancient City uses this Secret Realm to test newcomers.
Its unique “live broadcast” mechanism is also an opportunity for outstanding freshmen to showcase their abilities.
In fact, even now, there are still people, who specialize in serving major powers and companies, taking on the role of a human trafficker…
human resources managers are stationed long-term in the square with the most screens, trying to find a few promising newcomers to invest in.
It’s called treasure hunting, as quite a few hidden gem newcomers have been discovered here.
Those with outstanding talent and potential stand out, and the forces that invest or poach them in advance naturally earn a lot.
On the other hand, there are also some confident newcomers who lack resources and try to stand out by seizing this opportunity.
Luckily for Lu Ping’an, he came on a Friday afternoon at the end of the month…
which is the golden weekend for this line of work, a time when the main stage presentation has become customary.
This is equivalent to the “finals,” when many companies’ human resources personnel would come to watch, and the competition for the main stage is the fiercest.
Probably, but even if he knew, he would not care.
However, today, the well-prepared young people might be very frustrated, as they have encountered competitors who are not on the same level as them.
From the moment Lu Ping’an stepped onto the stage, the main focus has never shifted away from the main stage.
His extremely domineering basic abilities, along with the terrifying combat skills he demonstrated later, left a deep impression on the audience.
“Did you find any related information?”
“No, he seems to be a complete newcomer…”
“His power is incredible, possibly reaching the middle-upper level of the fourth-tier pure battle professions.
We haven’t heard about him; he may be a foreigner.”
Many people considered him a Foreigner.
After all, since the gates of a new world have opened, countless foreigners arrive every day, with a large number of strongmen among them.
Moreover, Lu Ping’an’s appearance on Earth was not widely known.
The news from the military’s Secret Realm side has not arrived back so quickly.
Many HR professionals have even considered the possibility of poaching him…
“If he’s an independent foreigner, we can lower the pay and benefits.”
“Don’t be foolish, he’s not an ordinary strongman.
High-level professionals are always in demand, especially when all factions are short on combat power at the moment.”
The current era is a time of great contention.
Neither the Earth nor the Foreign Domain is as peaceful as it appears on the surface.
All forces are trying to expand.
A Decree-level war machine is desirable to everyone.
There are many who calculate the odds.
They likely think that once Lu Ping’an comes out, there will be a lot of people coming to recruit him.
However, their calculations seem to have gone wrong…
“Why hasn’t he come out yet?”
“The Secret Realm has ended; he should have come out.”
“Could it be an additional trial?
He should meet the criteria, right?”
“Even then, he should have appeared in the live broadcast.
The broadcast has already changed.”
While the 30th-floor breach was clearly shown, more than two hours later, the Armored Knight had not yet come out…
Not only had he not come out, but even the hulking figures capable of wearing such ridiculous armor had not come out.
Let alone a giant over three meters tall, not even a single big man around one meter and ninety centimeters tall was seen.
Finally, it turned dark and the crowd dispersed without seeing anyone come out.
Everyone had no choice but to assume he had removed his armor silently and left.
Bizarrely, Lu Ping’an himself had not left at all…
When the dizziness from teleportation had disappeared, the sight that greeted him was not the legendary arena.
The Knight’s Secret Realm has an urban legend that has long been proven to be true, and widely circulated: outstanding trial takers will be given the chance for an extra trial.
It is a circular gladiator battle, where a special “humanoid creature” will appear, and they will engage in a one-on-one duel.
No, even if they don’t lose too badly, they will reap many rewards.
It is said that the opponents who appear here are very powerful, but the tier difference between them and the trial-taker is not significant…
Only a very small number of trial-takers with combat power far beyond their own level can possibly win.
Actually, it’s this duel itself.”
This is what those lucky ones who got the extra trial opportunity said.
Generally speaking, if there is such a trial opportunity for a lucky person, all the live broadcasts will be switched to this stage, which will become a celebration for trial-takers.
Each peak-level martial arts duel between true experts would spark many discussions…
Many professionals in the city would immediately put aside their important tasks to come and watch the duels.
Those who were chosen for the prototype arena would often make a name for themselves soon after and become heroes in the city…
It has been proven that Mr.
Knight’s vision is much more reliable than a human resources manager’s.
The “Arena of Future Heroes” is what trial-takers call it, and the higher the level of duels, the more they become hot topics of conversation for some time to come.
Lu Ping’an had the option of an “extra trial” before, but not all trial opportunities could make it to the Arena…
Lu Ping’an estimated that only Silver-tier and above trial opportunities would be performed on this grand stage.
However, this time, the choice for Lu Ping’an was “unknown.”
“It’s not a direct duel…”
After the initial surprise, Lu Ping’an nodded rationally.
If it was an ordinary professional, they might not know what happened, but Lu Ping’an himself already knew where he was…
What Lu Ping’an felt was that taste similar to his “Reception Room.”
It was a dark passage with light in front of him.
After taking a few steps, he saw the vast city.
Sunlight bathed the land, and the silver High Tower towered in the center of the city.
Gladiatorial arenas and competitive grounds were styled in an ancient Rome theme.
The stone brick roads seemed to derive from two centuries ago, with walking pedestrians clad in armor and wielding weapons.
Muscular men and warriors were everywhere.
“So, this is the Divine Kingdom Realm of the Rust Knight…”
