A few days later
A huge black aircraft carrier drifted slowly over the entire sea of trees.
Groups of black dots hovered around the aircraft carrier. They were black Mechs over a dozen meters high and each Mech was wrapped in a faint defense energy field.
Blue and white light was projected from the surface of the aircraft carrier, constantly shaking and turning. The light beam formed would light up from time to time and quickly dimmed down.
As each beam of light shone, a small group of people would instantly disappear from the ground between the trees.
In the dark afternoon sky, the moon and the sun were blocked out by the tens of kilometers-long mothership. In the shadow of the entire mothership, it was pitch-black.
What was most surprising was that directly above the mothership sat a black-bearded, skinny man. His large black robe was flapping with the gale. He sat on the tip of the mothership and his eyes were overlooking everything underneath. There was a kind of lofty temperament.

Wade from the Nine Owl Sect of Northern Yu Province. Invigilator Acarmont, this is the nameplate.

A sky-blue airship suddenly jumped into the air just in front of the mothership and there came a man’s clear voice.
A group of people walked out from the airship and floated in the air with the help of a flying platform. The leader raised the identity nameplate of his sect.

Nine Owl Sect? You may enter,
Acarmont swept across this crowd, looked at the young man and nodded.
One side of Wade’s cheek had a diamond-shaped silver metal inlaid on it, making his overall gentle temperament appear cold and callous.
With the permission of the invigilator, the group quickly flew toward the mothership with the flying platform. They were then bathed in a projected-beam of light and soon disappeared.
Less than ten minutes later, another group of people also headed straight to the mothership on flying platforms.

Sir Invigilator!

A group led by a young man raised their nameplates. All of them were from Scarlet Snow Sect.
Among this group of people were Yiling and Joey and they were all standing behind the young man. There was also a powerhouse who was not weaker than Yiling but these people were all headed by the young man.
Acarmont eyed this young man.

March from Scarlet Snow. You performed well the last time. This time, I will only take thirty percent of your resources.


Thank you, Sir,
the young man’s face showed a trace of arrogance and excitement. There was nothing abnormal about his looks except that the joints and knuckles of his entire body were unusually large. Even as he stood in the same spot, there was a strong sense of oppression which almost made people breathless. The long, shiny black hair until his waist was straggly and his whole person had a kind of overwhelming aura like that of an iron tower. It was obvious he was not an average person.
The people of Scarlet Snow Sect rushed to the mothership and quickly disappeared in a glaring beam of light.
At this time, in the shadow of Mothership below, people began to leap toward the mothership and would get hit mid-air by the white beam shot out from the mothership, disappearing instantly.
Invigilator Acarmont glanced at these people. Only the top geniuses of this region would be noted by him while the rest were only ants to him and were dispensable. He did not even need to collect their resources himself as the mothership’s automatic system would do it. Only when it reached a certain amount would he see for himself.
Underneath the mothership, a small sect in a yellow uniform leaped up toward it and then a slightly brighter beam was cast down to take the group away.
There were more and more other smaller sects gathering behind this team. These sects were considered very small for this region. It could be said that this opportunity from the mothership would be their biggest opportunity to change their destiny. Compared with the Big Three Sects, other sects in this area had insufficient resources and lack the strength to enter Void Battlefield to hunt down resources. They could not even meet the people from the Mobile Business Alliance of the mothership. The only thing they could rely on was their own aptitude and will.
Once they were valued by the Mobile Business Alliance, it would be a fundamental change to their fate.
After the yellow team was a team wearing silver special combat uniforms. This group of people did not look like they were from a sect but was more like soldiers in active service.
They were one of the two strongest mid-sized sects, Silver Hawk Sect, apart from the Big Three Sects.
The whole group was no more than fifty years old but they looked like they were in their twenties. This was also a strong advantage the Energy Machinists of Planet Naga had on self-modification.

Sister, it’s our turn,
a leading fat woman looked up at the mothership and said.
A petite woman standing beside her nodded. The two were the leading disciples of the team. At this time, they took out their flying platform, which required the consumption of energy. The gravity and traction of Planet Naga was much weirder than other places. The higher the flight, the greater the consumption of energy, so only the big sects could afford high-altitude flying platforms. As for the bottom-level people, they generally could only take the air shuttle bus or use the low-altitude flying platform to get on the road. Furthermore, poorer sects would not even dare to use it often.
At the rear of this team were some sparsely scattered Energy Machinists. Most of them were independents. Some were sect disciples who came alone but more were independent Energy Machinists without any sect. Besides attempting to test their aptitude, they had come to the mothership to exchange for advanced resources.
Each of these people were dressed in black cloaks and had their faces completely covered. Most of them were equipped with anti-detectors to hide the characteristics of their life magnetic field.
Beside one of the larger primitive tree stood a tall and sturdy man. He also had on him a black cloak and was looking up at Ghost Mothership, watching the shining beams of light and those entering the mothership.
The Silver Hawk disciples in front of him all charged towards the sky and were hit by the light beam, disappearing in mid-air.

Yiling that group of people has gone in. Before that, the people of Nine Owl Sect had also entered. The Big Three Sects now still left Dragon Eye. After they have all gone in, it’s not too late for me to go in then,
Garen stood silently under the tree and waited.
Soon, another group of people flew to the front of the mothership. After saying a few words to the emaciated old man, they went in following the white beam.
Because of the distance, Garen could only faintly see the group of people taking out a nameplate. They seemed to be the people of Dragon Eye Sect. Furthermore, the leader of this group seemed familiar and was probably Dragon Eye’s Nora.

The people of Dragon Eye have also gone in,
only then was Garen at ease. Back then, when he and Yiling attacked Dragon Eye together, Joey let off some people and did not kill them all in order to snatch his pursuer. This caused the people of Dragon Eye to see his, Garen’s and Joey’s appearance. Surely, now they were in their records. Now that he was alone, if he was not careful and was noticed, then there would really be nowhere to escape.
Garen ran forward lightly and headed toward the mothership with increasing speed. He rushed into the shadow under the mothership and mixed in with the group of Energy Machinists who had leaped up. Quickly flooded by a beam of light, there were also a lot of people around him. Those who did not leap up together used their own Experimental Energy Machinery to fly up and disappeared together in a thick beam of white light.
Whirr…
Garen only felt it was all blur in his ears as if he had thrown himself into the laundry drum and was flung about for a long time. His felt dizzy.
He slowly opened his eyes and his vision quickly cleared.
There was a huge white space in front with no visible boundary around. Only a giant silver sphere suspended above was clearly seen and it was eye-catching.
The giant silver sphere was constantly turning like it was formed with a huge amount of mercury and there were faint ripples on the surface. Below the sphere was a large group of those who had just been taken in by the mothership. All of them were Energy Machinists of various sects or single independents.
The people of the sect gathered together to form more than a dozen different sized circles, whereas the rest of the independents grouped up by themselves and were scattered around the periphery.
Garen did not join the Scarlet Snow Sect team but mixed in with the independents’ team alone. After the incident of Joey snatching his spoils of war, he no longer had any confidence in the people of Scarlet Snow Sect. Joining them or not was the same. The passing of the assessment of Ghost Mothership was not a matter of having more number of people anyway.
Time went by, minutes and seconds.
There were more and more people in the white space. Another medium-sized sect and more than a dozen small sects had entered.

It is time now,
beside the silver sphere, an old man in a black robe slowly emerged. He was that invigilator from the outside, Acarmont.

The access route is closed and the next batch will only be received after three days.

He glanced at everyone below. The huge crowd of thousands of people all had their sight focused on him.

The Ghost Mothership Northern Yu Province test begins now. This test is a one-star test with a total of five stages. There is a reward for passing every stage. Passing the third stage will qualify you to participate in the two-star test and there will be no deductions to the resources obtained. All those below the third stage need to hand in fifty percent of the resources acquired. No one is exempted.

His voice was as loud as thunder, rumbling in the entire space. Everyone heard it clearly.

After entering the test, all communication equipment are completely shielded. You have to be careful. Although it is not very dangerous, there are still deaths or injuries,
Acarmont instructed plainly.

Sir Invigilator. Everyone here knows the rules. You can go straight into the main theme,
Scarlet Snow’s March smiled and said.
Acarmont took a look at him. This man was considered to be one of the top geniuses in this area and had the hope to enter the Inherited Level in the future. He was considered to be quite well. For such talents, his attitude was slightly better towards them.

Then, we will start the first-level test now, Modification.

As soon as his voice faltered, hundreds of dense white obelisks emerged in the space below. Each had four sides that were mirror-like, allowing one to see their own reflection.
In an instant, countless streams of information from who-knew-what channels flowed into the imprint keys of all the Energy Machinists below.
The instructions for the first-level test were clearly explained right away.
Garen also felt that a subtle flow of information was faintly flowing into his Energy Machinist key. He took out the key and examined it. There really was the information of the first-level test.
