Chapter 245 Tintin Awakening

Chapter 245 Tintin Awakening

In End Town Outpost:

Maximus and tens of thousands of others were teleported one after another to the End Town Outpost.

As he looked around the familiar outpost, he suddenly felt his token vibrate.

Immersing his consciousness in the system space for a second, he saw Tintin awakening.

Before he could investigate any longer, Skye beside him spoke.

"Let's register our arrival first."

"Oh right," Maximus unconsciously nodded and followed her.

The registration is proof that you came back to your assigned outpost.

If you chose to stay in Purgatory City instead of returning, there was a severe punishment.

According to the degree of the offense, you may be sentenced to pay some crystal merits or, worse, be hunted and killed.

These harsh rules prevented anyone from avoiding their duty.

Fortunately, there was no quota for how many abyss monsters you must kill monthly.

However, without crystal merits, you can't do anything in the outpost either.

What you drink is the wind, and what you shelter in is the earth.

After registering their unique mana signature, they came back to Netherlux Mansion.

...

Netherlux Mansion:

"Did something happen?" Skye asked, seeing that Maximus was in a hurry.

"Tintin woke up," Maximus said, taking out the token from his dimensional space.

"Huh~"

"Where is this?" Tintin questioned as she looked around.

"The sleeping fairy is finally awake," Maximus joked.

"Huh? Host, you're here!" Tintin excitedly said.

"What happened to your three months of hibernation?"

"Uh, I'm absorbing the data stream sent to me by the main Token Spirit."

"Because there is no backup processor here, it took a long time to absorb the information," Tintin explained.

"You should have said so," Maximus said.

Quickly sifting through Myriad World Mall, he bought a tier 9 Quantum processor at 2,800 trillion dimensional coins.

If Tintin needed to fully function here helping him, she needed such a processor.

"Here, you can quickly bond with it," Maximus took out the Quantum processor.

"Nice!" Tintin said, bonding with the Quantum processor.

Soon, like enlightened, Tintin felt the long-lost feeling of having everything at her fingertips.

Although her own processor is also fast, there was still a difference between walking and driving.

"Thank you, host!" Tintin thanked sincerely.

"Enough of that."

"You should have processed the information about the abyss; can you tell me now?" Maximus asked.

This is what he had been waiting for.

He had been blind to what is what in this abyss for a long time.

If it were not for his ingenuity and strength, he would have made a lot of mistakes by now.

"Sure, host, I can transfer it directly to your mind."

"Do I initiate it now?"

"Hmm."

Soon, a stream of information was forcibly forced into his mind like a mush of potatoes.

Not wanting to flood his brain until it fried.

He quickly activated various special physiques and domains that could hasten his mind processing.

He also used system points to master the knowledge sent into his mind quickly.

After a few minutes, Maximus finished absorbing the information.

"Huh~"

"Finally, I have the information of the abyss!" Maximus thought excitedly.

Skye, on the side, just rolled her eyes.

What makes a difference if you know the information about the abyss or not?

Skye already knew the ins and outs of the abyss like the back of her hand.

Yet she still couldn't earn money as fast as Maximus.

If Maximus knew what she was thinking.

He'd spank her and tell her that she didn't know anything.

...

Soon, a year passed like a bolt of lightning.

Maximus and Skye also became tireless machines.

They were either fighting on a mission or on the way to take a mission.

They were like mindless grinding bots, wanting to level up their characters.

Slash after slash, blood after blood, Crystal Merits piled up like a mountain.

After a year without stopping, Maximus and Skye's status was finally upgraded from Challenger to Sentinel.

...

In a famous bar, Skye was like a wasted drunkard as she indulged in their rest day.

"Huh, so hard. Can we relax for a few days? No more fighting?" Skye said numbly.

Although she is a training freak, she still has needs and wants to rest.

However, the bossy bastard in front of her didn't want her to rest for even a bit.

"Hmm, from now on, there is no need to fight," Maximus said mysteriously.

"What, no need to fight?!" Skye unconsciously stood up due to excitement.

Fortunately, they were in a private room, so no one heard it.

Otherwise, many would question if there was something wrong.

"Hmm, that's right, we don't need to fight anymore," Maximus nodded.

To be honest, he was also tired. n/)O.)V.(e))l(-b--1/.n

After a year of nonstop fighting, even a robot would collapse.

Fortunately, he can always heal their fatigue using system points.

A life point is a day of time.

After putting it to themselves, they would feel they had just come to a sauna and relaxed for a day.

Day by day, using life points, they were the most efficient machines.

However, after all, all things have a limit.

Although their fatigue is gone, the memory of the tiredness and blood that they just experienced didn't disappear.

"What do you mean there was no need to fight?" Skye asked in puzzlement.

Maximus should be eager to upgrade his status to vanquisher rank and buy a shop in Purgatory City.

After that, life would flourish.

There would be no need to fight to earn crystal credits.

And you could also stay in Purgatory City for as long as you wanted.

However, Maximus wanted to stop just as they advanced to Sentinel rank, two levels away from the vanquisher rank.

"Why do you think we fought desperately for a year?"

"What about it?"

Just fighting for a year, who wouldn't?

Even though in her previous life, she was not as insane as Maximus, fighting for a whole year without rest.

She also fought for centuries with barely any rest.

"Hehe, that's why information is the key," Maximus smiled.

According to the information in Tintin's database.

Being promoted to Sentinel rank in less than a year and accumulating 8,000 real-time fights would grant you a special status.

Although your rank will be the same as everyone else, you will have the freedom of a mercenary.

Instead of a fixed place, you can go to any outpost you want, whether private or public.

Although it has a quota to keep the special status, it's enough for Maximus.

He can finally go around all over the Purgatory layer and collect abyss sources.

Although last year's harvest was great, it was not enough to fill his appetite.

After explaining his intention to Skye, instead of being happy, Skye pouted.

"So you brought me to fight non-stop for a year just for this?"

"Otherwise? Do you want to be left here while I go to another outpost?"

"Of course not!" Skye hurriedly refuted.

In her mind, she would rather be tired than be separated from Maximus.

"It's only fighting non-stop for a year, no sweat." Skye cheered herself

"What a good girl," Maximus patted her head.

"Hehe, what about my reward?" Skye asked shamelessly.

During the year, they fought non-stop.

Maximus let the Etherium Realm World origin convert the Abyss origin to tabulate their contribution, so they didn't earn much.

However, the millions of puppets Maximus bought are still working to kill abyss monsters and collect abyss origin.

Skye, who came to know this method, became envious for a while.

Having puppets to collect money for you is such a great thing.

Throughout the year, just with the tireless effort of the puppets, Maximus earned about 10 trillion crystal merits.

Although it was nothing compared to the money he earned through reselling, Skye was envious enough.

"Don't worry; once we can go to another outpost, we will never be short of money."

Collecting Abyss Source is just one of his goals to get into other outposts.

His other goal is, of course, to plunder money through reselling.

Although he can't earn much this way.

At least he can legally convert his dimensional coin to crystal merits.

Right now, he has over 100,000 trillion dimensional coins if he can convert them to crystal merits.

Maximus can be almost financially free.

"Oh~ But I wanted money right now."

"How about a trillion? Is that enough for you?" Maximus asked helplessly.

"Yay!"

Tsk, tsk, did Skye get infected by Lux?

She became like a broken radio, asking for money all the time.

'If you're not pretty, I would not even give you a penny,' Maximus thought.

...

Soon after their indulgence, they came to End Town Headquarters to register their special status.

Seeing them applying for special status, Kade was a little shocked.

"Maximus, Skye, I'm surprised you achieved what many would call insane," Kade said in admiration.

"It's just a fluke," Maximus said humbly.

"How can killing abyss monsters be a fluke?" Skye just rolled her eyes.

"Anyway, do you know the responsibility of being granted this special status?"

"We know," Maximus nodded.

The special status not only grants you the privilege to go into any abyss outpost in the abyss realm but also a series of responsibilities.

First, you must complete at least five mandatory missions per year.

Second, be on call once there is an abyss tide.

Third, be on call when there is an abyss raid being formed.

These are only one of the few responsibilities.

This special status can be considered troublesome, making you like an obedient worker.

However, it's just the opposite.

Besides the Etherium Abyss Council's ability to order you, no one can give you instructions.

Besides that, you can also be part of the Etherium Abyss Council's decision-making panel.

Anyway, there are a bunch of perks to having a special status.

Unfortunately for Maximus, these privileges are just smoke and clouds.

Nothing is more important than Abyss Source and Crystal Merits.
