Chapter 15 My Fate Rests With Me, Not Heaven!

“Contractor 101, do you wish to proceed with the breakthrough test?”

Fang Senyan listened to the voice, taking a deep breath, a flame flickering in his eyes, and said, word by word:

“Yes!”

“Please select the terrain, size, and duration of the battlefield.”

“Available battlefield terrains are: desert, plains, tropical rainforest, mountainous terrain, snowfield, snow mountain.”

“The maximum battlefield size is twenty square kilometers, the minimum is one hundred square meters. The default battle time is twenty minutes. You can choose the distance between you and your clone upon entering the world, from one meter to one kilometer.”

“You must pay additional universal points if you attempt to increase the battle time. Please note, there are no draws. If your clone is still alive when the battle time ends, your challenge will be automatically deemed a failure.”

Fang Senyan had already thought everything through clearly in his mind:

“Battlefield area: twenty kilometers. Type: snow mountain, requiring the snow mountain to have a gentle slope, with plains below.”

The Nightmare Space immediately prompted:

“Your request is for a composite terrain. You will pay thirty thousand universal points for this.”

Fang Senyan sighed helplessly at this point, then obediently paid the relevant amount. He now deeply realized that universal points could be earned quickly sometimes, but spending them could be even faster!

To be honest, if it weren't for Zi knowing he was facing a very serious situation this time and scraping together nearly 150,000 universal points for him, he would really be in a very difficult position.

“Payment received. Terrain shaping in progress… Please wait.”

“Terrain shaping complete. Please select your entry point into the world. This service requires payment. Your rank currently enjoys a 50% discount. If you do not choose, you will be randomly teleported to a location in the world.”

As soon as Fang Senyan saw the need to pay, he immediately felt a headache, then cursed the Space for being a money-grubber, but what could he do? It was like in the real world, if your wife wanted you to hand over your salary, would you dare not? For the sake of family stability and harmony... it was truly an irresistible and helpless thing.

“Select entry point into the world: the summit of the snow mountain, with a smooth snow slope nearby. Choose the distance between me and the clone... five meters! Battle time, okay, I still have ninety-seven thousand universal points here, deduct the ten thousand necessary universal points, extend the battle time as long as you can.”

“Contractor request received, your payment has been received, calculating, request approved, you can extend the time by one hour, seventeen minutes, and thirty-six seconds. Counting the twenty minutes gifted, you can extend the time by one hour, thirty-seven minutes, and thirty-six seconds.”

“Repeating the warning once, you can extend the time by one hour, thirty-seven minutes, and thirty-six seconds. If the copy survives beyond this time, you will be deemed to have failed the breakthrough… Please enter the next stage, and select the relevant breakthrough attribute.”

Fang Senyan said seriously:

“I choose to break through physique…”

Speaking here, Fang Senyan paused for a moment, clearly making a decision:

“And strength, both attributes!”

“You have chosen a dual-attribute extreme value breakthrough! Your copy will receive additional bonuses! Your breakthrough difficulty will be greatly increased! Are you sure you want to do this?”

“Yes!”

After Fang Senyan selected everything, the elevator reached the bottom, and an oval portal shimmering with a cold red light appeared in front of him.

“Contractor 101, enter this portal, all your current data will become the blueprint for the copy! The copy will possess everything you have, except for your talent!”

Fang Senyan said calmly:

“Then will the copy possess my servant, Gold Mine?”

“Data query in progress, the copy will possess your servant, Gold… Please wait, data error, data query in progress, self-check program activated!”

“Warning, warning, unknown error detected, initiating follow-up plan.”

“We regret to inform you, Contractor 101, that you will not be able to summon your servant Gold Mine after entering the trial.”

A look of understanding appeared in Fang Senyan's eyes. This was the first opportunistic plan he had thought of. If he could summon Gold Mine, he would take off all his equipment and hand it over to Gold Mine, enter, and then summon Gold Mine in the trial field to retrieve his equipment. He believed that Gold Mine was also a very heaven-defying existence, so it was his first choice, but… it failed.

However, Fang Senyan was not discouraged by this situation. A contemptuous sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth as he continued:

“Then before I enter the trial field, if my limbs are disabled, will the copy’s limbs also be disabled? Before entering the trial field, can I enter with a near-death state of health, will the copy also be in that state?”

This was Fang Senyan's second attempt to probe. After all, the only advantage the Contractor had was those few seconds of initiative. If he entered in a near-death state, then his health would definitely be quite low. As soon as the Contractor entered the world, he would immediately use the Potion of Honor to recover, which would unleash powerful strength.

Even if the copy had additional health, if the base value was too small, then he only needed to use a heavy sniper rifle or other weapon with extremely strong burst power, relying on the advantage of a three-second head start, and he would definitely be able to significantly offset the opponent's advantage. Don't forget the bloody weapons Fang Senyan and the others had seen before, which could suppress the enemy's recovery effect to the limit, and even if the operation was good, it would be difficult to say that a set of combos wouldn't kill the opponent.

Soon, the Nightmare Space's ruthless prompt appeared again:

“At the moment of entering the trial world, you will be restored to your optimal state, so your assumption cannot be established.”

Obviously, Fang Senyan's second backup plan had once again gone bankrupt, ruthlessly rejected by the Space.

Logically speaking, Fang Senyan should feel frustrated and very depressed at this time, but his expression was quite calm as he said in a deep voice:

“Then, among the items or abilities I currently possess, is there anything that cannot be carried or copied into the trial field?”

“Scanning in progress… Your items have passed inspection. Your abilities: Virus Monarch and Toxin Monarch, have a strong element of chance, and can only be partially copied.”

While waiting for the answer, Fang Senyan's expression clearly became tense. After hearing the Nightmare Space's answer, he nodded vigorously, stopped speaking, and stepped into that oval portal shimmering with a cold red light:

Dual-Attribute Extreme Value Challenge Trial, officially begins!!!

The cold wind howled, and the snow was white.

This was an indescribable snow peak.

Although this snow peak was majestic, it was not steep. The surrounding snow slopes were all rather gentle, without the extremely steep ice valleys and cliffs. If it weren't for the ice and snow covering the surface, it would be somewhat similar to the towering sand mountains in the desert.

And around the bottom of the snow peak, large areas of plains could be seen forming, the plains consisting of low, soft plants such as bluegrass, sheep fescue, bentgrass, viviparous knotweed, and lousewort. The end of the plain was surrounded by an endless void.

The void even had a few touches of crimson red纹理. If one fell into it, it was clear that there would be no good end, but the edge of the continent also had a translucent and solid barrier, precisely to prevent this from happening.

Fang Senyan was now standing on the summit of the snow peak, but he could not move. In front of him, about five meters away, a clear red light appeared, rapidly moving like a paintbrush, spraying like a welding gun, outlining Fang Senyan's outline with lifelike detail. Another Fang Senyan, exactly the same, slowly floated into the air, with no difference from him!

Looking at this copy opposite him, Fang Senyan felt an extremely mysterious feeling welling up in his heart. When the copy in front of him was completely created, his eyes were still tightly closed. At this time, he was still a completely soulless battle machine.

However, Fang Senyan soon discovered that many phantoms were actually floating out from his head. Those phantoms contained various memory fragments of his previous battles and thoughts, which were then copied one by one by the Nightmare Space and poured into the copy's mind!

“Even my combat experience and reasoning methods can be completely copied and poured in?” Fang Senyan took a deep breath and said, “As expected of a powerful opponent with a dual-attribute breakthrough to the extreme value.”

At this moment, a series of copying activities had come to an end, and the Nightmare Space's ruthless voice rang out:

“Warning: The battle will begin in thirty seconds. Contractor 101, please prepare.”

“Warning: Your combat opponent, the copy, possesses twice your current base attribute values, 1000% of your health limit, 100% of your items, 95% of your abilities, and 90% of your combat awareness, combat intelligence, and combat experience. If you feel you cannot win, you can immediately interrupt the match through the Nightmare Imprint.”

“Hint: Your combat opponent, the copy, will need 5.7 seconds to master and familiarize itself with the new body when entering the battle, so it will be in a stunned state for 5.7 seconds. Please seize this opportunity, but because you are performing a dual-attribute extreme value breakthrough, if you inflict severe damage on the combat copy, the pain may shorten the duration of this stun.”

“So, the time is actually 5.7 seconds longer than I planned? But the time will be shortened due to pain?” Fang Senyan sneered and said, “Damn it, even the only good news I just heard has been diluted. But, do you think you can defeat me like this? My fate rests with me, not heaven!”

“Battle countdown begins: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…!”
