Chapter 125 - - 125 Duge’s New Goal_1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

“Shocked by Hua Guyun’s concept?” Nan Youlong was very pleased with Duge’s expression, and he chuckled, “In these two hundred years, we have not been doing nothing…”

Shocked my ass!

Hua Guyun was from a century ago; if you guys had accomplished anything, the planet wouldn’t still look like this hellhole.

Aliens are the ancestors of possession, able to send you across the stars to the Alien Battlefield; you think they’ll let you possess them in return?

Trying to fool a gullible kid?

Maybe Hua Guyun really did have ideals!

But you?

Duge’s Rear Eye looked toward the twins on the other side, all you think about is how to enjoy yourselves and then hoodwink others into giving up their lives for you, huh!

An idea is just an idea. If it doesn’t turn into reality, it’s nothing but empty talk.

Duge wasn’t an eighteen-year-old native of this world; he came from Earth and had his own thoughts and awareness, not someone to be swayed by a few stirring words.

He didn’t believe more than half of what Nan Youlong had said…

He was shocked because he knew he was special.

The simulation field is a product of Pan-Universe Entertainment, and he had been directly possessed into the game, moreover, unlike others, he could take the skills out of the simulation field.

The simulation field broke down because of his keyword exploitation, kicking all players out of the game, yet it failed to discover the secret of his two keywords.

This suggested a problem, that he, the stowaway, really might have a chance to game the system…

Those skills brought from the simulation field may not be usable within it, but in reality, they’re deadly weapons that could well be his ticket to turning things around.

After all.

Nan Youlong had demonstrated his strength to him with his own power.

Rear Eye, Backstab, Goodness Is Being Bullied, Honest man’s rage…

In two simulation fields, he had accumulated four skills. If he could find a few more that could affect the soul, like soul separation, Hua Guyun’s escape plan might not be impossible to succeed.

For instance, leaving the soul directly on the Alien Battlefield.

Keywords developed to their ultimate extent could carve out a territory on the Alien Battlefield; whether to continue to enjoy life on the Alien Battlefield or to smuggle out from there, both were much better than sticking to Qiyuan Star.

This could work!

If he wanted to learn more about Pan-Universe Entertainment, he must access the upper echelons of Qiyuan Star, rendering staying at the isolated No. 42 Middle School meaningless.

In an instant, Duge made his decision. He pretended to be inspired and asked, “Staff Chief Nan, since the Alien Battlefield is held once a year, and I’ve been chosen, what should I do in the remaining five months?”

He turned his head and smiled at the twins, “Before I die, should I enjoy life?”

“Within a month, you can enjoy yourself, and you must enjoy yourself. You will experience every aspect of life that you have not experienced at the civilian college to the fullest: eating, drinking, playing, you can eat until you’re stuffed, sleep with women till you’ve had your fill, or even change up partners. You can gamble freely, plenty of folks at the casino would play with you, and you can lose as much money as you want. In short, any form of pleasure you can or can’t think of, we will provide it to you…”

Nan Youlong, looking at Duge’s bewildered expression, said with a smile, “Duge, your behavior in the simulation field has indeed shed many of the bad habits from the civilian college, which is remarkable. But some things can only be perfected through real experience, not imagination. We won’t allow any warrior heading for the Alien Battlefield to have any weaknesses…”

Fuck!

Are you training agents or corrupting them?

This is over the top!

With a different beauty every time, who could resist?

A few pregnancies and unless they’re extremely cold-hearted, it’s enough to make one develop feelings for Qiyuan Star, both violent and direct.

Indeed, I am still too young.

Duge smacked his lips, thinking if you threw this special agent training method to Earth, Earth’s males would probably howl and scramble to join your battlefield for resources!

“After a month, you will participate in the final simulation field assessment,” Nan Youlong said, looking at Duge with a serious tone. “And also, I must correct one thing. Going to the Alien Battlefield is not about facing death; it’s about growth, it’s an opportunity.”

“So, I have one more chance to enter the simulation field?” Duge asked, surprised by the talk of hedonism, but now showing joy. After all, emerging from the simulation field with two additional skills was his real stroke of luck.

“It’s not the usual mixed assessment for fourth-year students,” Nan Youlong explained. “Instead, you will compete against elites selected from across the nation within the simulation field. In that simulation field, no one will know who Duge is. You won’t be able to cheat as you did, and there won’t be a repeat of people flipping tables as in the second simulation field. Based on your performance in the preliminaries, we will conduct one last targeted training before the battle, only then will we send you to the Alien Battlefield.”

“What about Gao Ming and the others?” Duge asked.

“A group of wastes who only got ahead by clinging to others have no right to participate in the elite preliminaries,” Nan Youlong disdainfully said. “I know you have feelings for them and want to pull them up to be your support. But whether they can make it to the Alien Battlefield will depend on their performance in the upcoming rotation exams. Those students whose spiritual power you’ve elevated will be dispersed across various simulation fields, without the chance to meet each other.”

“Elite preliminaries?” Duge didn’t care about where Gao Ming and the others ended up. After all, he wasn’t close to them, having only met a few times. He tentatively asked, “Staff Chief Nan, if I don’t perform well in the elite preliminaries, does that mean I won’t have to go to the Alien Battlefield so soon?”

“No, your place has been locked in. Regardless of your performance in the elite preliminaries, you will still be sent to the Alien Battlefield in the first round,” Nan Youlong stated. “We appreciate your way of thinking and your adaptable mind in developing keywords, hoping that you can bring a different flair to the Alien Battlefield.”

Indeed, everything said before was bull!

Are geniuses really dime a dozen?

They just saw the potential in this young master…

Having readjusted his mindset, Duge no longer dwelt on going to the Alien Battlefield. He chuckled, “Alright, I got it. It’s my honor to serve the Federation. Let’s go!”

“Aren’t you going to say goodbye to your friend?” Nan Youlong asked.

“Two grown men, what’s there to say goodbye for? I’ve already given him the best start. If he’s capable, we’re bound to meet on the Alien Battlefield.” Duge said nonchalantly as he shook his head, “If he’s not, then we’re people from two different worlds from now on; there’s no need to meet again.”

Duge’s words somewhat surprised Nan Youlong, who looked at him with approval. “Duge, your thinking really is different from others. I’m even more optimistic about your performance on the Alien Battlefield now.”

You think too highly of me!

We’re just not that close!

Without explaining, Duge asked, “Staff Chief Nan, Pan-Universe Entertainment is making such a big scene out of this – getting people to fight over resources on the Alien Battlefield… What are they hoping to achieve?”

Nan Youlong glanced at Duge and said, “Reality TV. They’ll broadcast live your performances on the Alien Battlefield for people’s entertainment…”

Just as I thought!

No wonder it’s called an entertainment company…

Toying with countless civilizations just to shoot a reality show for profit, that really is going big!

Duge was mentally prepared and therefore had no strong reaction. Just like Nan Youlong said, only the powerful have a say. He was just an insignificant ant, unable to even determine his own fate.

Power is strength.

Didn’t Thor once duel Hulk in an arena for a show as well?

To break the rules, you have to possess power equivalent to Pan-Universe Entertainment’s; otherwise, you’ll have to play by other people’s rules…

No, that’s not right!

Duge suddenly had an epiphany.

His spot wasn’t decided by Qiyuan Star’s higher-ups, it was decided by Pan-Universe Entertainment.

A game needs novelty, and he, the one who crashed their simulator, is like the best kind of catfish…

Aliens couldn’t possibly have no knowledge about their own simulators.

So, having a remarkable performance on the Alien Battlefield might actually offer a chance to get closer to them. Hua Guyun couldn’t get into a Pan-Universe Entertainment spacecraft, but perhaps he could.

After all.

What entertainment company doesn’t want a star player?

A star means higher ratings and more traffic!

To become a star player, I must make a noteworthy rise, not be like the others…

One heart ready for two outcomes.

If I can escape, I will; if not, I’ll join in.

To beat an enemy, just wishful thinking won’t do. Gaining their appreciation, winning their trust, might grant access to higher-level technology and power…

Since Pan-Universe Entertainment is a company, it can’t be without competitors.

And their competitors are opportunities for me.

What if someone comes poaching?

Life is long; one can move up the ladder step by step.

Duge knew his idea was somewhat naive, but he decided to give it a try nonetheless.

The fighting spirit of youth, once awakened, isn’t so easily quelled.

Two hundred years and Qiyuan Star may have been subdued, but he hadn’t been.

Duge was a stubborn man. He might not shoulder the future of Qiyuan Star, but he wanted to change his own destiny…

…

Amid the envious gazes of the students from No. 42 Middle School, Duge and Staff Chief Nan boarded the helicopter parked on the field.

Next to the principal, Gao Ming watched Duge’s departing figure, his smile slowly solidifying on his face. He clenched his fists tightly and muttered, “Old Du, wait for me. I won’t break my promise.”
