Chapter 1181: Starting point, no, I'm already at the finish line
Su Xiao stood and waited to be teleported to a new world. The spatial fluctuations around him gradually grew stronger, and when the fluctuations reached their peak, a coin that had been broken into two floated up in front of him.
When he was about to reach out to take the two pieces of this coin, they came together and became one.
The coin reappeared right in front of him, but now it was covered with many small cracks.
Immediately after, Su Xiao grabbed the time and space coin. It broke into two pieces earlier, but its description didn't say that it was a one-off, so obviously this legendary coin wouldn't break due to a single use.
The fact that it split into two earlier was most likely due to the fact that it thus released the power of space and time that was contained within it, and after this coin released a sufficient amount of energy, it came together.
Su Xiao looked at the time and space coin on his palm. On the surface, it looked like it was going to break at any moment, but it looked like it could be used a few more times.
After realizing this, he put away the time and space coin in his inventory. If in the future he gets a derivative world that is not quite suitable for him, he uses this coin again.
The only drawback of this coin was that when using it, a random world was chosen, and, most importantly, when choosing a neutral world, it was impossible to get any important information about it in advance, unlike the vast majority of derived worlds.
Although the unknown was fraught with dangers, it allowed for new experiences.
No one could say for sure what was waiting for the contractor in the neutral world.
The power of space enveloped Su Xiao's body, and he subconsciously placed a hand on the back of his head.
In the next moment, he disappeared and a multicolored light began to flash before his eyes, while his body seemed to be moving at an ultra-high speed.
— Surprisingly... The back of my head is still intact, " Su Xiao muttered and looked around.
Next to him was a confused Bubtni and Amu, who was currently picking his nose.
Bubtney was puzzled. In the past, before he got to a new world, he was hit on the head with a hammer, unless of course you had to fly to the world on some kind of transport.
But this time, they were clearly teleported, but they were not knocked out.
Such a request... It was completely abnormal.
*Whew~*
Su Xiao's eyes narrowed.
His body began to fall down at a high speed.
*Boom!*
Su Xiao's body flew into the ground, and almost immediately, his arm poked out.
— Where are we?.. Su Xiao muttered and climbed out of the pit.
Right now, he was on a platform of earthy yellow earth with a diameter of about 5 meters, and everything beyond that platform was pitch-black.
It was pitch black above him, and there was still pitch black in front, back, left, and right. Except for the platform Su Xiao was on, everything seemed to be covered in a layer of black smoke.
— Is this a neutral world? Su Xiao asked and looked around.
If he was already in a neutral world, it wasn't a good sign.
[Notification: The hunter has arrived at an auxiliary interstellar transfer station.]
[The Hunter was sealed with a "Life Lock".».]
A golden wing tattoo appeared on the back of Su Xiao's hand, but he didn't know what it was doing.
[Before visiting a neutral world, the Hunter must read the following rules::
1. The neutral world is an undeveloped derivative world, and it is impossible to enter the neutral world through normal channels.
2. Due to the nature of the neutral world, "Paradise for Reincarnators" will only provide language assistance (you will need to spend Paradise coins to get it). Identity disguises, items, and other functions require the Hunter to have "merits" on their balance.».
3. Each neutral world has its own rank restrictions, the Hunter will enter a neutral world of rank 3 (only contractors from level 20 to level 30 can enter neutral worlds of rank 3).
4. The Hunter is free to explore the neutral world, and tasks will be assigned based on the Hunter's personality, status, financial resources, and other comprehensive indicators of the neutral world..
5. Before being sent to a neutral world, the Hunter must earn the required amount of "merit" at the " Second Auxiliary Interstellar Transfer Station».
6. To get "merits", you need to defeat contractors in battle who want to get into the same neutral world..
7. Due to the received "merits", the Hunter will be able to activate the disguise of his personality before entering the neutral world. The more expensive the disguise, the more influence, financial resources, and so on the Hunter will gain..
8. In the event that a Hunter is fatally wounded during a battle on the "Second Auxiliary Interstellar Transfer Station", all "merits" earned through combat will be canceled.]
After reading all the clues, Su Xiao understood what had happened.
In the past, when entering the derived world, identity disguise and so on was provided on a free basis, but now, due to the peculiarities of the neutral world, all such functions were no longer free and they had to be purchased for "merits" that could be obtained in battles.
Although Su Xiao had received a lot of information this time, the only thing he was interested in right now was who exactly wanted to enter his neutral world.
While he was thinking about this, new notifications started appearing in front of him.
[Reminder: The Merit Fights are about to start.
After defeating a contractor, you can get from 1 to 5 merit points, the total number of merits depends on the level of the contractor..
Reminder: This time, a total of 76 contractors have used the " Recognized Space Battle Certificate (Rank 3)", all of them will try to enter your neutral world.
Reminder: This time, a total of 32 contractors used " Invitation Letter from Neutral world (Rank 3)", all of them will try to get into your neutral world.
[It was discovered that the Hunter used a special item "Time and Space Coin (Legendary)»...
Check...
The Time and Space Coin (legendary) is rich in the power of time and space, and its value far exceeds the value of the "Recognized Space Battle Certificate (Rank 3)" along with the " Invitation Letter from a Neutral World (Rank 3)", triggering the balancing mechanism...
[The hunter was paid a compensation of 16,500 Merit points.]
[The battles of merit have begun.]
[With only a short time remaining before arriving in the neutral world, the contractor communication platform was opened.
The nature of the contractor communication platform has changed, now it is a platform for communication in a neutral world.]
This time, Su Xiao realized that his guesses were correct. Since he had to go to a neutral world, Heaven wouldn't provide all the contractors with their services for free, but that was fine. After all, all the contractors who were going to enter the neutral world used special items to do so.
And among all such special things, the time and space coin was obviously quite an advanced way to get into the neutral world. In fact, just from the price of selling it to Rai, it was obvious that it was very expensive.
Derivative worlds allowed contractors to become stronger for free, while neutral worlds allowed contractors to become stronger at the expense of their own resources.
Neutral worlds required the contractor to have the necessary resources and forces to enter, and since all the mechanisms of Paradise in neutral worlds were limited, to obtain them, contractors had to first earn the right amount of "merit".»
With the help of victories, the contractor will be able to get "merits", and due to these "merits", he will be able to get better starting conditions in a neutral world..
But Su Xiao's situation was a bit special. Due to the fact that the Time and space coin was a high-level item, when Su Xiao wanted to enter a neutral world of the third rank, he basically immediately received a solid amount of "merit" for using such a high-level item to enter a lower-ranked world.
For this, Paradise paid him compensation, since Paradise always adhered to the rules of equal exchange..
While the other contractors were at the starting point right now, Su Xiao, with 16,500 merit points on the balance sheet, was essentially already at the finish line.
