Novel Bin Chapter 445: Start Over from Scratch
After an unspecified amount of time, Dean finally regained his footing.
Simultaneously, a prompt from the system appeared before his eyes.
[You have entered the Ninth-turn Trial Challenge Instance. This instance starts from the beginning!]
[Challenge Task: Start From Scratch
Task Description: As a professional challenger, you undoubtedly possess exceptional power.
The growth and strength of a professional are inseparable from their profession, luck, and experiences.
All these elements collectively forged you as you are now!
But what if you were stripped of all these things and made to start from the beginning? Would you be able to recreate the same miracle?
Task Objective: You need to start from scratch and do even better this time.
Five years later, or when your level reaches 180, your present self will attack you.
Defeat him, kill him, and you will successfully complete this challenge task!]
Gazing at the system prompt before him, Dean couldn’t help but squint his eyes.
“Start from scratch?
Is such a luxury even possible?”
In an instant, the unease Dean initially felt about the difficulty of the 27-challenge trial dissipated immensely.
“Wait, I can’t be careless!”
Dean opened his attribute panel.
…
Name: Dean McKenzie
Age: 15 years old
Talent: Not Activated
Status: Shared Fate (This being, with a Minor God Strength Level, has gambled her life, soul, and hope on you. You will receive her blessing. If you die, she will also meet eternal oblivion.)
Profession: Not Activated
Level: 0
Attributes:
Strength: 7, Physique: 6, Agility: 3, Spirit: 2
Identity: Recruit of the 322nd Batch in the 74th Gathering Place of the Human Race
…
Looking at these attributes before him, Dean couldn’t help but frown.
“No Talent?
Is talent extraction not allowed?”
The moment he saw “No Talent”, Dean instantly felt his hope plummet.
No one understood better than himself just how formidable he was at level 180, with nearly 30 trillion points in Spirit.
Aided by his SSSS-level and SSS-level traits, not to mention beings of a Tiny Divine Power Level, even 180-level entities were no match for Dean.
In that instant, Dean finally clearly comprehended the significance of the Promotion Quest after the 27th “Crazy Challenge”.
“This is virtually an impossible task!”
Dean couldn’t help but despair a little.
However, whether Dean despaired didn’t hinder the start of his task.
As he looked at his own attribute panel in despair, a system prompt followed.
[Detecting that you are fully prepared. Transferring character background information. Please accept!]
“Who said I was ready?
Do I look ready to you?”
Dean couldn’t help but retort. But the system paid him no mind.
It didn’t care what Dean thought, it only cared what it thought.
It believed Dean was ready. Therefore, Dean was ready, ready or not!
So, in the next second, background information about Dean was sent into his mind.
As the information poured in, the first thing Dean felt was pain.
It must be said, the system was thorough in this regard.
For Dean, who once possessed a mighty spirit that could shatter stars, even receiving a bit of information now caused some discomfort.
“It’s been a while since I’ve felt this way!”
However, Dean did not miss this feeling.
Joking aside, he wasn’t a masochist, nor an old-timer who had lived for centuries. Why would he miss such pain?
While rubbing his temples, Dean began to peruse the information before him.
From the information, Dean roughly understood his current character’s identity and the background of this world.
Indeed, Dean had come to view this instance task as a world of its own.
The background of this world was somewhat similar to the Small World he had devoured recently, with the same changes in heaven and earth, the resurgence of spiritual energy and the descent of the game.
The difference was that this world was currently in the early stages of the heavenly and earthly changes, and because of the intense nature of these changes compared to the previous Small World, the situation was quite difficult for humans in this instance world.
The difficulty was such that Dean’s character had to start training at the age of seven or eight, and by the minimum age of fifteen, commence their professional awakening.
Today was the day for the professional awakening of Dean’s character.
After Dean had received this basic information, the world around him suddenly became much more vivid.
Dean knew that his challenge had officially begun.
At the same time, an ancient voice resounded.
“Children, the time is here to decide your fate as well as the fate of humanity.
Line up and come up one by one!”
The ancient voice was the first to sound, followed by the sound of breathing around him.
Dean then realized that he was standing in a square.
Surrounded by dozens of boys and girls about his own age, these teenagers, who should’ve been cheerful and carefree in Dean’s previous life, had faces that bore maturity completely incongruous with their age.
Faced with this absolute turning point in their lives, not a single boy or girl spoke. They all focused on the Promotion Monument next to the old man on the podium who was sitting in a wheelchair, with his lower half and one arm missing. They quickly went forward one by one, pressing their hands onto the monument.
