1286 Departure! Endless Abyss!
To all the people who paid attention to the Garden Hunting Assembly held by the royal family of the Declan Empire, the preparation period before the second stage was not even considered an appetizer. This was because although a lot of news had erupted before this, it could at most be considered frivolous. It did not meet the psychological standards of people regarding the Garden Hunting Assembly as “dangerous, exciting, and cruel”.
However, when the second stage of preparation ended and all the participants officially headed towards the Endless Abyss, the people who paid attention immediately paid even more attention.
Through this period of publicity and the information that people had obtained through various media channels, everyone had a rough understanding of this place called the Endless Abyss in the Dark Forest Star System of the Declan Empire.
The so-called “Endless Abyss” could not really be considered inside the Dark Forest Star System, because it was actually a large asteroid belt located outside the star system of the Dark Forest Star System and between the Dark Forest Star System and the surrounding galaxies. Because it was the closest to the Dark Forest Star System, it was tacitly recognized as the Dark Forest Star System area.
According to the usual astronomical mon sense in the Milky Way, the existence of the Endless Abyss was very strange to begin with, because if such a lonely asteroid belt floated in the universe like this, sooner or later, it should be captured by a star or other celestial body of sufficient mass and bee a celestial unit in the gravitational circle of a star system.
!!
However, ever since this planetary belt was discovered, it had been floating alone in such a strange location and did not close the distance with any of the surrounding star systems.
If one calculated its long-term circulation pattern, one could discover that it was actually directly revolving around the galactic center and was basically consistent with the other surrounding star systems.
Just this alone made this Endless Abyss seem very strange, but this was not the most strange thing.
What was really strange and even unbelievable was that there was actually an atmosphere in this asteroid belt with a radius of more than three astronomical units!
What was even more outrageous was that this atmosphere actually pletely enveloped the entire Endless Abyss. Even the gap in the middle of every asteroid belt in the asteroid belt pletely enveloped it. It gave people the feeling that after shattering a huge planet that originally had an atmosphere into a large asteroid belt, the atmosphere did not float and dissipate. Instead, it dispersed with it and still tenaciously protected this asteroid belt.
This was an unexplainable problem.
This was because normally speaking, it was clearly impossible for this asteroid belt to continue preserving the atmosphere, let alone stabilize it, and spread to such a huge area.
However, it happened to exist in reality and no one could doubt it.
Ever since they discovered the asteroid belt of the Endless Abyss, many scientific research teams from the Declan Empire and even the other countries in the Milky Way had e here to carry out various scientific research investigations, but they had yet to pletely resolve the mystery of the Endless Abyss.
What obstructed them was not only the plicated astronomical and geographical environment in this special universe, but also a very important factor. There were all kinds of strange ferocious beasts in the Endless Abyss.
“After all the participants enter the Endless Abyss, your mission is to kill as many ferocious beasts as possible. In the end, we will determine your points ranking according to the number of ferocious beasts you hunt and determine your final results…”
Looking at the person-in-charge sent by the royal family of the Declan Empire on the virtual screen in front of him say this, Chu Nan shook his head and turned to look at the other participants who set off with him. He discovered that many people frowned. Clearly, they sensed that something was wrong with this rule.
If it was only according to this rule, how could the royal family of the Declan Empire determine how many ferocious beasts these participants had hunted in the end? Moreover, how could they confirm that these ferocious beasts had been hunted by this participant and his panion?
If a participant arranged other helpers in the Endless Abyss in advance to help him hunt, it would undoubtedly make their results better and their journey safer.
When he thought of this, Chu Nan could not help but sigh.
Chu Nan had waited for him for the entire day yesterday, but Hasol had never appeared. Therefore, when he set off for the Endless Abyss today, the list of teams Chu Nan had reported was only him, Angie Prairie, and Nkosi.
Although this way, there was no need to split the results equally and he would be punished with a certain amount of points, Hasol was experienced in hunting ferocious beasts and had a special beast instinct. With him around, it was clearly more beneficial in such an activity of mainly hunting ferocious beasts.
“…Apart from hunting ferocious beasts, you have another very important mission, and that is to go as deep as possible into the Endless Abyss.” The person in charge on the virtual screen suddenly changed his tone, “Every time you go deeper into the Endless Abyss, the points you ultimately obtain will obtain an additional 10%. Moreover, every ten levels you go deeper, you will obtain a portion of the points reward. The tenth level is 100 points, the 200 points are 200 points, and so on…”
Hearing this, Chu Nan’s heart stirred.
According to the rules announced previously, hunting an ordinary ferocious beast that was evaluated as the lowest level in the Endless Abyss could only obtain 1 point. Just breaking through to the tenth level would directly reward them with 100 points. Coupled with the points reward after breaking through the tenth level, this was simply forcing participants like them to advance deeper.
“Hey, Nkosi, how many levels are there in the Endless Abyss?” Chu Nan asked him.
Nkosi glanced at Chu Nan as if he was looking at an idiot.
“Nonsense, since it’s the Endless Abyss, there are naturally countless levels.”
“How can that be?” Chu Nan was stunned, “Could it be that no one has been able to explore the deepest level for so long? Is it really endless?”
“Not even a Star-Grade Martial Artist?” Angie Prairie asked curiously.
“No… it’s not endless. However, up until now, no one has been able to say clearly how many levels it has, because it’s too big inside. After more than 30 levels, the range of space explored on each level has already exceeded the surface area of the planet we set off on just now. Therefore, it will take a lot of time to pletely investigate.”
“Moreover, if you’re too far away from the entrance, the danger will greatly increase. Generally speaking, not many people are willing to do this. Previously, someone had organized an expedition team, but every such expedition was basically pletely wiped out, so no one will do such a stupid thing now.”
At the mention of this, a trace of fear actually flashed across Nkosi’s face.
From his expression, Chu Nan guessed that he might have participated in such an exploration team before.
“This is still not right.” Angie Prairie still did not answer. She asked in confusion, “Isn’t the Endless Abyss an asteroid belt? Why are there so many levels? Moreover, how big is the area of each level? Where are those areas? Moreover, so what if the area of each level is larger than the surface of a planet? It won’t take long to fly around the surface of the planet.”
Nkosi chuckled with a strange expression.
“Let me tell you, you can’t fly at all in the Endless Abyss.”
“Ah?”
