NCCnovel Chapter 1 Dungeon Potential
Chapter 1 Dungeon Potential
"Dungeon potential: Level 3!"
As the examiner's voice rang out, a lot of strange looks fell on the boy on the stage.
The boy's face flushed red with shame, and he broke down, burying his face in his hands and muttering, "How could this happen? Why am I only at level three... Am I really that bad...?"
The students in the audience were discussing it animatedly:
"The potential of a dungeon is ranked from low to high as one to ten, but the lowest level among the seniors from our Nancheng No. 1 High School was at least level four, right?"
"The resonance result is related to a person's spiritual world. This guy is only level three, so he's either narrow-minded, unambitious, or shallow-minded..."
"This is so embarrassing."
The examiner called out, "Alright, next one!"
At the graduation ceremony of Nancheng No. 1 High School, students are facing judgment on their future prospects in the square.
Ye Yang was among them, and he stood at the very front of the class!
As each student walked past on the stage, their expressions ranged from disappointment to joy, making one feel tense.
He has been in this world for 18 years and knows the importance of this moment.
In this day and age, developing dungeon worlds is the only theme.
This is because this world is a world of starry sky immortals, and the entire Milky Way galaxy has united to form the "Starry Sky Immortal Alliance".
A sky full of stars, all of them are true immortals!
However, the positions of immortals are already filled, and countless powerful cultivators are eagerly awaiting their guidance. Developing dungeon worlds is now the only path to immortality.
A thousand years ago, the Gate of All Heavens suddenly descended, ushering in the Era of All Heavens!
The projection of the Gate of All Heavens descends upon countless planets. When everyone turns 18, they can connect to their own unique multiverse world by touching the projection of the Gate of All Heavens!
To date, there are trillions of recorded duplicate worlds, but none are identical.
Each instance world has its own 'storyline,' or trajectory of destiny. Once this trajectory of destiny is altered, the instance's owner will gain corresponding 'destiny points.'
Consuming Destiny Points allows you to extract anything from dungeons, including treasures, living people, laws, the Great Dao... and even a real celestial body!
An unclaimed star is equivalent to the position of a true immortal, extremely precious!
Some dungeons have small spaces and short storylines, so the number of Fate Points obtainable is extremely small, making them unworthy of development.
Some dungeons have long storylines and grand worldviews, so you can obtain Fate Points that can extract planets or even stars!
Therefore, each copy has a different 'potential'.
"Our class will be on the stage soon. Ye Yang, you are our class's role model, so you'd better do your best." The homeroom teacher turned around and said this as he watched the students walk up and down the stage one by one.
"Mm." Ye Yang nodded.
Only one projection of the Gate of Heavens can exist on each planet at a time, and it can only resonate with one person at a time.
Even if each person spends 10 minutes, it can only resonate with 144 people in 24 hours a day, and at most 52560 people in a year.
Therefore, time is of the essence and no time can be wasted!
Candidates must also be in top form, because they only have one chance.
"Keep it up!" Bo Lin, Ye Yang's childhood friend who was standing behind him, also said to Ye Yang at this moment.
"Mm." Ye Yang nodded again.
"They're here!"
Ye Yang stepped forward, went up on the stage, and waited for the student in front of him to finish.
"That must be Ye Yang, this year's top scorer in the college entrance examination on our Ling Shu Star, right?"
"A person's inner world directly influences the outcome of resonance. I wonder what kind of world this prodigy will resonate with?"
"It can't be that bad."
Many people got excited when they saw Ye Yang take the stage. The video of him defeating six opponents of the same level with his early Foundation Establishment cultivation in the college entrance examination and winning the top score in this year's college entrance examination was already widely known.
Soon it was Ye Yang's turn. He glanced at the countdown timer next to him—9 minutes and 53 seconds.
His test must be completed within 10 minutes!
Ye Yang immediately reached out and touched the slightly illusory projection of the Gate of All Heavens in front of him.
The next moment, his consciousness was transported to a new body by a dizzying sensation.
"Where is this...?"
Ye Yang looked around and saw familiar Chinese signs and cars all over the road, most of which had license plates starting with the character "苏" (Su).
The streets were deserted, devoid of human voices and the sound of horns, making the empty city feel like a ghost town, eerily unsettling.
……
Meanwhile, in the main world, hundreds of eyes were also watching the instance footage projected in the Gate of All Heavens.
It happened to be the graduation ceremony of No. 1 High School, so naturally many students were watching from the sidelines. On the stage, Ye Yang touched the Gate of All Heavens with one hand and kept his eyes closed.
"this……"
"Why is his alternate world set in modern times?"
"Don't worry, things might turn out differently."
"Even in a modern setting, this person should be extraordinary."
There was a flurry of discussion among the audience, because it was common knowledge that modern-themed dungeons usually had relatively low potential.
On the contrary, the more primitive and ancient the background of the dungeon, the more powerful it usually is!
Of course, it's not that there aren't any high-rated dungeons with modern settings, they're just relatively rare, so everyone is still patiently observing.
……
In the dungeon world, Ye Yang walked along the street in confusion. Almost two minutes had passed, and he hadn't seen a single living person, let alone understood this world, so he couldn't help but become anxious.
"It looks like this city still has electricity. I wonder if there's internet. I need to find a way to get online."
Ye Yang happened to see a mobile phone store, so he walked straight over.
3 minutes later...
His phone was synced with the time; the current date in the copy was February 5, 2015.
Upon opening the search engine, Ye Yang immediately saw a news article!
The date was February 4th, which was yesterday:
A new variant of the R-type virus has been isolated for the first time! Scientists have named it RR virus!
2015…R-type virus…RR virus…
As if a bolt of lightning had struck his mind, Ye Yang's hands trembled.
He used the last bit of time to search for information about the 'R-type virus' at an extremely fast pace.
"In 2013, the R-type influenza virus was transmitted through bodily fluids... In January 2015, the RR virus was transmitted through the air and survived for three hours! It could infect the vast majority of animals..."
"This...this is..."
Swallowing the Stars?!
Ye Yang didn't say it aloud; he couldn't reveal that he knew about this copy of the information in the projection of the Gate of All Heavens.
Because no one had ever been able to 'predict' the information in the copy before, he dared not be the first.
But this is the Devouring Star!
A profound and vast world, teeming with powerful beings.
Ye Yang was incredibly excited.
……
the other side.
The examiner responsible for assessing the dungeon's level shook his head slightly after seeing the information on Ye Yang's phone screen.
With only one minute left, he immediately woke Ye Yang up.
Ye Yang opened his eyes, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
My own instance is actually the Swallowed Star World, the potential of which is simply unbelievable. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the highest 'level 10 instance'!
As a result, he heard the examiner say in a loud voice:
"Instance background: Resident Evil, modern city."
Spatial breadth: 0.
"Dungeon Potential: Level 1!"
Ye Yang was dumbfounded.
