Chapter 86: Hai Lan Star
Before Mu Yang could even thank Reincarnation Paradise for its recognition, he suddenly felt a wave of mental fatigue, and a drowsy sensation continuously crept into his mind.
Just before completely falling asleep, he seemed to feel someone tapping at the back of his head—no, not tapping, but rather as if someone had driven a car into the back of his head, and then he was "coaxed" to sleep.
When Mu Yang slowly woke from his unconsciousness, a clean table came into view.
He squinted and subtly scanned his surroundings, realizing he seemed to be in a room. The owner of the room was currently unknown, or it could even be himself.
A prompt regarding the special area quickly appeared before his eyes, with the following information:
Contractors have entered a special area: Star Sea · Shattered Star Ring · Colton Star Cluster · Garton Galaxy · Ninth Star Sector · Hai Lan Star · Star Dragon Country.
Star Sea Brief: The Star Sea super-ability system includes: Ability System, Martial Arts System, Mechanical System, Magic System, and Psionic System.
Super-ability user Ranks: E-rank, D-rank, C-rank, B-rank, A-rank, Super A-rank—
Source of Star Sea: 0% (Contractors exploring or interacting with characters in the current area may increase this.)
Hai Lan Star Difficulty: Lv.1 ~ Lv.27.
World Brief: Hai Lan Star has six countries: Xinglong, Hongfeng, Tiliusi, Ruilan, Haixia, and Oudianfina.
Among them, the Germination Organization is opposed to the six countries, and the Dark Web is the most neutral, not interfering in any major national affairs.
Current location of Contractors: Star Dragon Country · Western.
Star Dragon Country Difficulty: Lv.1 ~ Lv.20.
Hint: It has been detected that Contractors have not mastered the language of this world. Contractors have been freely assisted in mastering the language of this world.
World, start!
Originally, Mu Yang was a bit nervous about this mission, but upon seeing the familiar brief and content, his inner unease was immediately soothed.
So the Star Sea was "The Legendary Mechanic" after all.
It was a world he liked; he would clear it directly!
Hint: The special title "pride of the sun" you are wearing has taken effect. You have obtained an initial identity of Neutral · Good Faction—Star Dragon National Land Strategic Defense Bureau · Secret Operations Department · Squad Leader.
As expected, pride of the sun began to exert its influence, directly arranging a good initial identity.
The Star Dragon National Land Strategic Defense Bureau, because it has thirteen departments, can be abbreviated as the Thirteenth Bureau. Before leaving Hai Lan Star, the Thirteenth Bureau and Han Xiao had a rather deep relationship.
He just didn't know where Han Xiao was now. He hoped the person had just escaped from the Germination base, which would give him more reaction time.
At this moment, Han Xiao, who was taking a "free" train to the western part of the Star Dragon Country's capital, sneezed, wondering which young man was thinking about him behind his back.
Mu Yang closed the area brief and clicked to view the main mission.
Main Mission: Collect 50% Source of Star Sea.
Difficulty Level: LV.7 ~ Lv.13.
Mission Brief: Give it your all to complete the mission.
Mission Information: This mission, combined with the initial identity, can greatly reduce the difficulty of completion.
Mission Deadline: Within twenty natural days.
Mission Reward: ???
Mission Penalty: None.
The main mission was unremarkable, simply collecting the Source of Star Sea, which was equivalent to the World Source in ordinary worlds.
If nothing unexpected happened, Mu Yang could complete it in about a week by diligently doing missions and killing super-ability users.
And the mission deadline was a generous twenty days, Reincarnation Paradise's most generous episode.
However, he was very curious about which category he belonged to in the Star Sea's super-ability system, as he seemed to touch upon many.
His Blazing Sun and Blood Sun were very similar to the Ability System, but he also knew magic; if he was said to be a Magic System user, he also had Sword Mastery.
"Captain, word from the higher-ups: they want us to pay attention to this Zero, who is wanted by Germination. If we encounter him, we must capture him alive!"
At this moment, a female super-ability user pushed open the door and burst in holding a tablet. Her actions were bold and uninhibited, seemingly a person who didn't fuss over details.
"Next time you come in, remember to knock."
Mu Yang subtly took the tablet, checking its contents while glancing at the appearance of the person before him.
Her features were delicate and pretty, her eyes lively and vibrant, her figure tall, with a curvaceous physique.
She wore a beige coat over a black tight-fitting outfit.
Her looks scored 90 points. In Mu Yang's memory, there weren't many women who could compare to her, only: Ruo Yi, Ruo Li, Xiao Xian, Lin Su,
Gu Yuena—
Cough, cough, it seemed there were quite a few after all.
However, such an appearance did somewhat match a person from Mu Yang's memory of "The Legendary Mechanic," but he couldn't be sure.
Perhaps because the Star Sea belonged to a special area, this initial identity did not come with any memories, and everything had to be explored by Mu Yang.
The content on the tablet was also very simple: it just instructed all members of the Secret Operations Department to pay attention to the wanted Zero on the bounty. Once found, they were to immediately report and carry out the arrest according to orders.
As for the portrait on the bounty, Mu Yang found it quite interesting. Those decadent dead fish eyes looked like a lazy, unmotivated mechanic who was just waiting to die.
"Alright, I understand—"
Before Mu Yang could ask her to leave, Li Yalin interrupted him.
"Captain, you've just joined our squad. Shall we get to know each other more deeply?"
"Get to know each other more deeply?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Yang nodded slightly. Indeed, they needed to get to know each other more deeply.
As for how to delve deeper, it would certainly be through a tense and exciting spar. Winning against his team members was the only way to gain their respect, which was very reasonable.
Li Yalin looked at this newly assigned young captain and found him quite handsome, but this was the Thirteenth Bureau. Could mere handsomeness serve as strength?
So even if he was handsome and charming, she had to strike hard!
"I'll do it."
A man with a square face pushed open the door and entered, with a clear look of doubt on his face.
This person must have been listening outside for some time, perhaps he came with Li Yalin.
The square-faced man was Zhang Wei.
He wasn't dissatisfied that someone had taken his place, but the prerequisite was that the person replacing him had to be stronger and more capable of holding the important position of captain.
In missions, the captain's orders were crucial, almost affecting every team member's next move. And insufficient ability leading to incorrect commands could result in the entire team's demise!
Yet now, Mu Yang was assigned here with a blank resume, and he could not trust Mu Yang's ability.
"Then let's do it together."
Mu Yang was not angry, his expression remained calm.
Although his position as captain seemed a bit stifling, with anyone able to barge into his room, considering he had just arrived and had no good achievements, it was understandable.
However, the most important thing was that their challenge had actually triggered a side mission, which was an unexpected surprise.
Side Mission Triggered: Gain Respect.
Difficulty Level: LV.6.
Mission Brief: As a newly assigned captain, your resume is blank, making it impossible to gain the trust of the original squad members and captain.
Mission Information: Use all means to prove your position in front of the original members.
Mission Deadline: Within 6 hours.
Mission Reward: soul crystal (small) * 1, 1% Source of Star Sea.
Failure Penalty: Loss of Captain identity.
Accept/Decline.
