Chapter 345 - 304: Frontline Elite!

Chapter 345: Chapter 304: Frontline Elite!

Before this, although various civilizations had already become affiliated civilizations of Human Civilization, their different combat styles meant that the alliance’s front-line cooperation was actually not very harmonious.

The command system was also somewhat chaotic.

But now, it was gradually taking shape. On all levels, they were slowly integrating and truly beginning to form a complete system.

At this moment, Shen Hao’s focus was on a specific individual.

This human warrior was one of the prominent names recently reported by Dong Gong, a standout from a list of key candidates.

His name was Dong Xue.

...

A very ordinary name, a very ordinary family background, and a man without much special ability. His Extraordinary Talent was just average, in no way could it help him obtain the identity of a Chosen One on its own merit.

However, after joining the troops with just the minimum qualifications required and becoming a low-level Soldier, and after embarking on an interstellar expedition, he began to show some extraordinary traits.

Calm, intelligent, cautious, and not lacking in courage and luck.

The merits he had earned by now almost qualified him for a Chosen One spot.

Shen Hao was conducting the final review.

At present, the number of Chosen Ones within Human Civilization had reached 1.74 million.

Out of these, about 1.22 million were Chosen Ones from other Species, including those from Affiliated Civilizations who had chosen to join Human Civilization and passed the review.

In other words, the human species had a full 530,000 Chosen Ones!

This figure, compared to other Affiliated Civilizations, was not much, but considering the time Human Civilization had been participating in the Civilization Trial, it was already quite an exaggeration.

Typically, it would take at least thirty to forty years of participation in the Civilization Trial to have a figure close to one million.

But for Human Civilization, it had been only eight years.

Clearly, the high-level rewards from the previous two Trials, and the activation of two Chosen One enhancements over the past year or so, had greatly accelerated the rise in Civilization Chosen Ones.

But even so, compared to the total population of the human species, which had soared to 142 billion, Chosen Ones were still a minority among minorities.

Thus, everyone, especially the frontline soldiers, had a strong desire to become Chosen Ones.

And as the spots received from Shen Hao’s last Trial rewards kept diminishing, the opportunities to become Chosen Ones grew ever fewer.

For Dong Xue to make it onto this list and undergo Shen Hao’s final assessment was proof of his excellence.

At the moment, Dong Xue was seemingly unaware of the President’s attention.

He was in his spaceship, exhaling slowly, making the last adjustments before combat.

Currently, the number of interstellar battleships had grown to a considerable size. Although it still wasn’t possible for each person to have one, it was feasible for a hundred-person team to have a spaceship equipped with a Jump Engine, and the team led by Dong Xue was part of the Elite sequence, with the spaceship being of a very high level, reaching the Purple Epic Level 25.

If it wasn’t for the fact that autonomous mass production had brought costs down substantially, just the points needed in the Point Mall for this spaceship would equate to the total savings of the entire team of over a hundred people.

“I’ll repeat our mission one more time,” Dong Xue opened his eyes, allowing his voice to spread to every corner of the spaceship, “Intercept all Dimensional Creatures fleeing towards our defense direction from the main battlefield! Now, check your resources, especially Rejuvenation Pills, as this battle will last a long time.”

Rejuvenation Pill.

This was one of the high-quality Elixirs that Gan Yuan had previously completed.

With “Spiritual Liquid” as the main ingredient, its Quality could reach Blue Level 28, and the key was that it could be mass-produced on a large scale. Each warrior could be allocated at least ten pills, enough for them to sustain long periods of high-intensity combat and to receive free refills during resupply.

After everyone completed their checks, the voice in the command channel also relaxed slightly.

“Captain, tell us the truth, have you reached Level 25? The rewards from the last big catch weren’t small, you could even exchange for Purple Epic Level fourth-stage Elixirs!”

“Why swap for such high-quality stuff when you’re not breaking through?”

“I’m giving an example, do you even understand the concept of examples?”

“How about we get some one-time use equipment with massive power? That Soul-devouring Poison we used before was good, it can even take down Level Four Dimensional Creatures!”

“Don’t worry about that, following the captain, are we ever short of spoils?”

“…”

Dong Xue listened to the voices of his comrades, and a hint of a smile crossed his face.

Not every team could be this relaxed before a major battle, but that was Dong Xue’s style. He didn’t like everyone to be always on edge, at least not without a reason for everyone to be tense.

However, recalling his gains from the last time also ignited a spark of excitement in his heart.

Normally, for a team like his, even an elite one, the primary combat targets would be the third-stage Dimensional Creatures, and the numbers could not be too large. Otherwise, even with the auxiliary teams from the Affiliated Kingdoms around them, they would still suffer heavy casualties.

But last time, a Level Four Dimensional Creature appeared before them out of nowhere.

And they won!

The victory owed much to his perpetual readiness for the worst, but the rewards from that victory were astonishing nonetheless.
