The Military Queen-Chapter 67 - 58: Entering the Main Battlefield

(Oh la la, Fu Zi’s new book has been reviewed, and if you have time kids, take a look, "Rebirth Space Farming" with two old articles updated perfectly fine, you all know my rules, haha. Rush for the new book list, grab the tickets ya ya ya)

didn’t run away, she just asked for a bed to rest in the Water Control Mansion. "First off, to avoid that deadly Bald Man, and second, I really am a bit tired." The Physical Strength depleted by the Bald Soldier in the early stage was replenished with the Leech Needle, but the spiritual power didn’t seem to increase for a long time. As 0 spoke, she laid down on the hard stone bed and fell asleep until dawn, when she walked out of the Water Control Mansion feeling refreshed and clear-headed.

The morning light felt even more refreshing and anew compared to the sunset. That Bald Man, I’d better avoid him as much as possible, and I wonder whether those Red copper bullets turned him into a pig-headed fool.

Military Merit: 850. There’s also an additional task on the task manual, uh, actually two. 0 noticed another task added to her manual: Gain Tushan Qi’s favor, gain Tushan Nujiao’s favor, gain Yu’s favor, and upon collecting the favor of these three, obtain Dayu’s Divine Talisman.

(It’s really... used to stepping on dog poop, my luck exploded, that Divine Talisman looks like it’s only half-finished, needs some processing before it can be used. I’m tired enough today, it’s about time for you to log out,) Little Eight began to nag again.

In the loop bus, Xia You pulled out her earplugs, having curled up in the last row of the bus for six to seven hours. In theory, she should have been feeling sore and achy, but at that moment, she didn’t feel the slightest soreness or numbness. Around two in the afternoon, when she should feel sleepy, she felt the same comfort as waking up in the morning.

"Could it be that the sufficient sleep in the game replenished my Physical Strength and spiritual power and affected me in reality, too," Xia You jumped off the bus, her phone flashing brightly. This phone was really great; it hardly lost any power after six or seven hours. Just like Xia You’s mental state at the moment, vibrant and spirited.

Xia You decided that next time she entered "Military Road," she must properly test this out. If indeed the sleep within "Military Road" could counteract the need for sleep in reality, then she had to make the most out of this 1:10 time exchange rate.

Fate will always look after some people, but sometimes it also forgets about the unfortunate ones. Yu Xiaonan, also known as 500, was on the verge of a breakdown after failing to complete the first task on the main battlefield for the fifth consecutive time. What made it even worse was that when Yu Xiaonan entered the main battlefield for the sixth time, he was stopped by an NPC on the streets of this ancient city.

"Hello, Player ’500,’ I am the ’Military Road’ system Messenger. Player ’Yijie’ has spent ten military coins to have me inform you that he has completed the task of Newbie Village, and his Military Merit Points are now 750," the Messenger faithfully relayed Yijie’s message.

"Is this some kind of mistake, the Newbie Village task that took me two months to complete, he managed it in two or three days. That damn 0, not even a shadow to be found," 500 grumbled. He had a bet with Yijie on who can gain more Military Merit Points, and over a few days, he hadn’t snagged a single point of merit, he will lose at this rate.

dismissed the Messenger and hesitated, looking towards a corner of the street.

The street scene of the main battlefield was entirely different from the ancient architecture that 0 and the others went through, with wide streets and blond-haired, blue-eyed Caucasians walking by.

Where 500 stood was bustling and prosperous.

After entering the main battlefield, 500 discovered the uniqueness of the "Military Road" online game. As the game progressed, no system tasks were set, and each person’s progression depended on their autonomy.

Different from Xia You, Yu Xiaonan had been someone living on the cutting edge of the time before joining the Armed Department in Rand Military District. From casual games to online "murder games," he had experienced them all, but none of them made one as physically and mentally exhausted as "Military Road" when one is not careful.

Everyone has secrets. 500 clearly remembers when he ran away from the enemy tribe and was discovered, pursued, what it was like. When the stone blade for chopping wood pierced through the NPC’s chest, he could feel the real sensation of muscle being penetrated. It was as though he wasn’t killing an NPC, but a living, breathing person.

And in front of Sun’s Crown, when he racked his brain for 220 Military Merit Points and 0 appeared, for a moment, he truly had murderous intent, although it was just a flash, that feeling was undeniable, the darkness lurking in the depths of everyone’s heart. He thought that by joining the Rand Military District, surrounded by stronger soldiers, he wouldn’t have such restless murderous impulses again, "Military Road," this terrifying game.

"Make way," a Northern European soldier with thick hair walked past him, heading towards the military station. Seeing 500’s face that could be described as "ravishing beauty," he even spat. The public beta of the game was broad, bringing all kinds of birds, even such delicate-looking people were wearing the rank of Sergeant.

In the interconnected streets with no dust sweeping over, on the wide roads that six carriages could pass freely, wealthy men and women wore flowing robes, followed by the somber faces of slaves. The stone buildings of one or two stories glistened in the sunlight, an array of shops lined both sides of the street. Palm trees swayed in the river breeze. For those fortunate enough to venture out of the city, the first thing they saw was a long, thick city wall, a marvel built by countless labor, 2 meters thick and over 10 kilometers long, dense with watchtowers. This wall protected against both flooding rivers and military invasions.

Beyond the city walls, after crossing a large bridge, you would see dark river waters shimmering with jade green, an intersection of the plains and river valleys, fertile soil cultivating numerous crops.

Every new player entering the main battlefield, upon witnessing this sight, would feel a deep shock in their soul. After enduring the Stone Age days nearly akin to savagery, both new and veteran players were captivated by the peculiar landscape of Babylon City.

In just a few days, "Military Road" quickly introduced them to Slave Society. These soldiers from a free era were seeing for the first time, slaves existing like ants.

The timeline of the main battlefield leaped forward by hundreds of years. In 1772 BC’s Ancient Babylon City, the capital of the mighty Ancient Babylon Empire, the dazzling array of shops and buildings utterly mesmerized 500 and all other players.
