Knowing that Jian Qing was with the Sikes Civilization, it beca much easier to make contact with her.
That very evening, Lu Heng established contact with Jian Qing and arranged a eting place.
Yeliana Sikes didn't want to get too involved in the summoning incident, after all, the actions of human Superpower Users were not under her control and there were many uncertainties.
As a faction leader, getting involved in the summoning incident could easily lead to negative press, affecting her faction's support rate.
Therefore, she arranged another place for Lu Heng and his companions to stay, at a greenhouse apartnt on Mitchell Street.
Eight o'clock in the evening.
Jian Qing arrived with a team of six: "I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Lu."
"I'm a bit surprised too. If I had known that Captain Jian was here, I would have contacted you guys from the start." Lu Heng reached out and shook hands with her.
Jian Qing brought five Superpower Soldiers to form a team this ti, but these five Superpower Soldiers did not have a team contract with her.
The reason they were conscripted together was that after the summoning occurred, the military gathered all Superpower Soldiers with the sa countdown to conscription into a group, led by the highest-ranking soldier, to form a temporary team and enter the Abyss Battlefield.
This is also an advantage of the military hierarchy. Due to the large number of Superpower Soldiers, when a conscription occurs, they can always find a few people to form a team.
Moreover, since they all co from the military background, there's an underlying bond between them, which often results in better team coordination than many teams with contractual obligations.
"No wonder the Danger Level is so high this ti. Seeing you, I understand. You were conscripted as well; how could the Danger Level not be high? Since you're here, I'll listen to you. Do you have any plans, Mr. Lu? If we cooperate, we might even complete the World Task."
Before receiving Lu Heng's ssage, Jian Qing had been worried about the tasks in this Abyss Battlefield.
Because the Danger Level of this Abyss Battlefield was Level 6, it posed a considerable challenge for her.
However, she was mistaken about one point: the high Danger Level of the Abyss Battlefield had nothing to do with Lu Heng.
Lu Heng trusted Jian Qing but that didn't an he had to tell her all his secrets.
For example, the way he arrived at the Sikes Civilization, there was no need to explain proactively.
Like other Superpower Users she had previously encountered, Jian Qing subconsciously assud that Lu Heng was conscripted here.
Although completing a World Task allows the establishnt of a Space Anchor Point for transfer, such a transfer is only effective for an individual.
Lu Heng arrived with his entire team, and it's rare for a team to establish multiple Space Anchor Points in the sa world.
After all, establishing a Space Anchor Point requires the consumption of World Task rewards. To maximize the team's benefits, the best approach is for one mber of the team to establish a Space Anchor Point in each world, while other mbers choose to increase their Combat Power.
However, this presupposes the completion of a World Task, which qualifies one for the choice.
In fact, the vast majority of Superpower Users do not have the capability to complete a World Task, and therefore do not even have the chance to choose a Space Anchor Point.
In Lu Heng's team, indeed, only one person had established a Space Anchor Point, which was Su Muyu.
The entire team could arrive not because of Su Muyu alone but because of Yuan Yaoyao and the Ze Wei'er Matrix.
The most important factor was the Ze Wei'er Matrix, a scientist from the Sikes Civilization. Without his Space-ti Transmitter, it would have been impossible to co.
Therefore, among the entire human group, only Lu Heng could bring a team without being conscripted.
Due to the information gap, Jian Qing also subconsciously assud that Lu Heng was conscripted, inadvertently blaming him for the high Danger Level.
Having additional information allowed Lu Heng to speculate further about the Danger Level.
The Danger Level of this Abyss Battlefield was Level 6, lower than the Elf World's, but higher than the one in Black Stone City.
Although this ti's Danger Level was lower than the Elf World's, the mission might be more challenging than in the Elf World.
One need only think about it briefly.
The Elf World had a Danger Level of Level 7, which was indeed very high.
However, during the final battle, the main forces that dealt with the boss, the Bloodline Demon King Mogis, were actually the strong mbers of the Elf Clan.
In the end, it was the Great Arcanist Augustus and Mogis who perished together.
This ant that, while the Elf World's Danger Level was indeed high, it did not require humans to bear the full difficulty.
The conscription to the Sikes Civilization might not be the sa; if humans were the main force against the Abyss Demon, then the actual difficulty might not be lower than the Elf World's.
Lu Heng thought for a mont and asked, "Have you detected any other teams with very high levels in the past few days?"
With such a high Danger Level, and Lu Heng not being the cause, then it must certainly be due to other Superpower Users conscripted here.
That is, there should be another team among those conscripted, one with a very strong combat capability.
Combining this with the intelligence acquired by Xie Shi'en, this team was likely to be the one from the Creator Organization.
Yet, this team from the Creator Organization was a raiding team, which was not a good sign.
If it really were this raiding team that had arrived, they would ransack the resources of the Sikes Civilization, taking their technology, weapons, energy, Star Cores, and other valuable items.
The Sikes Civilization did not have the forbearance of the Elf Clan.
By then, the human race would inevitably face a manhunt by the Sikes Military.
If the situation turned out like this, let alone completing the task, many human superpower users would die here.
By the middle and later stages of the Abyss Era, the reputation of looting teams would beco increasingly worse.
Because of the appearance of looting teams, there would be a destructive impact on the world structure of the summoning worlds.
This led to the formation of hostile relations between humans and the main civilizations of the summoning worlds, resulting in looting teams surviving on their formidable strength while other superpower users beca cannon fodder.
...
Upon hearing Lu Heng's question, Jian Qing recalled for a mont and answered, "I encountered a team wearing Vengeance team masks before; they seed to be of high level, but we never clashed, so I can't be certain."
Hearing about the Vengeance team masks, Xie Shi'en's expression froze for an instant.
Because the Vengeance team masks were the characteristic of the Creator Organization's raiding team.
Lu Heng pressed on, "How many people were in the other party?"
Jian Qing thought for a mont and replied, "I saw four."
Xie Shi'en added, "There should be five, one didn't show up."
Based on the information provided by Jian Qing, it was basically confird that the Creator Organization's raiding team had indeed co in.
This was the real reason for the high danger level.
Because the combat power of the Creator Organization's raiding team was too strong, since they were summoned, it naturally ant that the world will considered their combat power sufficient for this Abyss Battlefield.
However, the power assessnt for summoning did not take into account the behavioral characteristics of the summoner teams.
In other words, the world will only knew that the Creator Organization's team had strong combat power but didn't know what they would do.
The appearance of a raiding team would not only make the task simpler but would also destroy the world structure, leading to the difficulty of the task increasing dramatically.
During the latter part of the Abyss Era, there would be a saying among superpower users that when a raiding team appeared in the Abyss Battlefield, the odds of annihilation would double.
However, helplessly, because the raiding teams themselves had high enough combat power, even if all other superpower users died, they might not necessarily.
In the end, other teams would be wiped out while the raiding teams survived to the last.
Lu Heng and Xie Shi'en exchanged a look and decided to share this important information with Jian Qing:
"Captain Jian, there are a few pieces of information I need to tell you, which greatly impact this task."
Seeing the seriousness in Lu Heng's tone, Jian Qing promptly sat upright and nodded, saying, "Okay, go ahead."
Lu Heng rubbed his forehead with his fingers and said, "First, the Vengeance team you saw should co from the Creator Organization; they're a looting team."
Hearing this information, Jian Qing's expression grew even more solemn.
She had heard so information about the Creator Organization.
This organization was very mysterious and also very powerful.
Moreover, so significant events that happened in Da Xia were connected to the Creator Organization.
Lu Heng continued to ask, "Captain Jian, how much do you know about looting teams?"
Jian Qing lowered her head to think for a bit and answered, "Improving combat power by looting target worlds could cause destructive harm to the world structure."
Lu Heng nodded and continued, "That's right, the team with the Vengeance masks can be confird as a looting team, and their combat power is very strong.
"You just said that the high danger level is because of , but the real reason actually lies with this raiding team."
Jian Qing nodded and said, "Understood, it's because of your two teams."
Lu Heng didn't explain further and went on, "This ti around, besides completing the main quest, another important task for us is to be wary of this looting team.
"You should be clear, I have obtained the technology data from the Sikes Civilization; this is their technological support to our human civilization.
"You should understand the value of this technology data—having taken assistance from the Sikes Civilization, and if we looted them after that, should opposition form, the situation would be difficult to control."
Jian Qing nodded in agreent, "Understood, our current relationship with the Sikes Civilization has been very successful, and although not all citizens of Sikes are friendly to us, at least they are not hostile. If looting happened, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Lu Heng continued, "In the upcoming ti, my attention will need to be focused on this looting team; you will need to work harder on the task aspect."
Jian Qing nodded in agreent, "That's okay, division of labor makes things more convenient."
Lu Heng then asked, "Where have you gotten to with the main quest?"
Jian Qing didn't hide anything and answered, "We are investigating a few scientists from the Sikes Civilization that are wanted, and currently, Xavier Matrix is the most suspicious."
Lu Heng, hearing this response, felt sowhat helpless.
Xavier Matrix's reputation wasn't really good in the Sikes Civilization, and he was one of the few who dared to have a conflict with the Sikes Military.
Therefore, human superpower users, upon seeing the content of the main quest, first suspected him.
Lu Heng sighed and said, "No need to investigate Xavier Matrix anymore, I'll help you eliminate his suspicion."
Jian Qing frowned and asked, "Are you sure you can eliminate the suspicion of Xavier Matrix?"
Lu Heng answered affirmatively, "Yes, I am one hundred percent certain."
