The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 124 Upgraded Trial

?

"What?!?"

"Working again?"

"Oh no, freedom is lost."

Looking at their funny expressions, Maximus couldn't help but smile.

"What? Are you tired?"

"Uh, yes, leader!" Although embarrassed, they still expressed what was in their hearts.

"Then let's rest for a while and find more Tier 5 materials."

"Yes!!!"

"I Love Vacation!"

"I am going to sleep 12 hours a day from now on."

"Hmph, I will eat and sleep until I'm fat."

Maximus hurriedly packed up as they made their way toward the newly upgraded mechanical vehicle.

Besides getting bigger, there hasn't been much change, even the weapon is still Tier 5.

After all, there aren't many Tier 5 materials here, and there isn't enough time.

"Wanderer, let's go to another continent. There isn't much to find here."

[Wanderer: As ordered, host.]

...

In the monitoring room, the supervisor overseeing the mechanical golden gate trial noticed Maximus and the group.

"Dean, look at this. They are already able to create Tier 6 items," The supervisor said, shocked.

"So soon?" The other supervisor was also taken aback.

"What a group of monsters."

"Hey, it's just a lucky brat who happened to study this trial world's unique material..."

"Luck is also part of strength," Fealn, who had just come in, said.

"Dean!"

"This means thousands of people will pass this year's trial."

"This is unprecedented..." The others also discussed.

After all, in a thousand years, it's rare for even one person to pass.

Yet this year, thousands of people might pass.

"Just upgrade the trial," Fealan said after thinking.

"After they pass, all of them will receive special student status."

"And that leader, Maximus, will get the core student status."

"Core student status?!"

This time the supervisors were truly shocked.

This kind of status isn't simple.

This status is higher than theirs, only slightly lower than the dean's status.

Typically, you can only achieve this status after reaching Tier 7 and passing a certain trial.

"Let's see if his luck can still carry him through the trial." Fealan thought

...

A few days later, the mechanical vehicle arrived at the sea.

"The sea, huh?"

"Wanderer, scan what is under the sea."

[Scanning...]

[Wanderer: xxx Tier 6 monsters, xxx Tier 5 monsters, xxx Tier 5 materials...]

"The sea is really filled with treasure and danger."

Maximus could only sigh.

He thought about mining in the sea, but upon seeing such a dense group of monsters, he shelved that idea.

It's not worth it; they can mine on land anyway.

"But why aren't there any Tier 6 materials?"

"Wanderer, Go to another continent, and check for any Tier 6 material mines."

[Wanderer: As ordered, host.]

... 

A few months later...

"Why is there still no Tier 6 materials?" Maximus muttered gloomily.

Previously, he could still scan small amounts of it.

But now, he can't even find a particle-sized speck of Tier 6 material.

He thought the sea was just peculiar, but after coming to another continent, there's still nothing.

He even delayed the mining to find any trace of Tier 6 material, but he still found nothing.

"How am I supposed to pass this?!" Maximus shouted inwardly.

"What's wrong, boss? You still can't find Tier 6 material?"

"What do you think?"

"Is there really nothing?" Andrew ask, thinking that Maximus was joking.

"Hmm."

"It's over..." Andrew muttered.

A few months earlier, Andrew had thought Maximus was joking when he said there was no Tier 6 material.

After all, this is a world full of Tier 6 monsters, it should be available.

But now, it seems that Tier 6 materials have simply vanished.

As for the materials from the corpses, that is useless, as they would turn ordinary when killed.

"But boss, since you can create Tier 6 materials, it should be alright, right?"

"I hope so, but based on Wanderer's scanning, there are signs of mutation in the Tier 6 monsters," Maximus sighed.

He was truly targeted by this world.

"It's okay, boss. We can try again in 10 years," Andrew comforted.

Andrew had already come to terms with the fact that they might not pass this trial.

"No, it's not over yet..." Maximus murmured.

"What do you mean it's not over yet?" Andrew was puzzled.

"Since there aren't any Tier 7 monsters here yet then..."

"And then?"

"We can just eliminate all the monsters here before they evolve," Maximus smiled confidently.

Though it sounds crazy, it's feasible.

"Is that possible?"

"You won't know until you try."

"Wanderer, explain our predicament to the others. I'll meet them in the lobby."

[Wanderer: As ordered, Host.]

...

In the Lobby:

Various people had downcast expressions.

They believed they would surely pass this trial, but now it seemed their advancement was cut short just as it began.

But they weren't in despair, not with Maximus as their leader.

Even if they couldn't pass this year's trial, they were certain they could do it the next time.

"You all seem quite disheartened."

"No, Leader!"

"No need to deny it."

"It seems we're losing hope, but I assure you, we're not."

"Our odds are still high. After all, our enemy is nothing less than the whole world," Maximus teased.

"The whole world?!"

"Is the leader still sane?"

"Hey, maybe the leader is delirious."

The people below muttered to themselves.

"Is it difficult? But it's our only chance." Maximus smiled.

"We either destroy the whole world or we perish," 

Maximus had even considered escaping from this world.

But once Tier 7 monsters emerged, distance would be meaningless.

His only chance was to reduce this world to dust and then escape.

"This—"

"Is this really possible?"

"Maybe with the leader..."

Yes, they can just destroy the world.

With Maximus' capabilities and with their help, their chance is huge.

"What do you think? Are you with me?"

"Yes, Leader. We'll stand with you until the world's end!!!"

"Good, because you'll need that determination to work," Maximus smiled, already envisioning them begging and laboring in vain.

"This..." They also had a premonition that hell is about to descend again.

...

Two years later, the ten-year mark had arrived.

The group had undergone an earth-shaking transformation.

Now, they resembled a species of panda without fur.

"C-Can you still do it?" Blane nearly staggered as he asked Cereb.

"Yes, I'm very energetic!" Cereb said cheerfully.

"What a beast..." Blane admired Cereb's tenacious will.

Over these two years, they had been working non-stop, sometimes even for 20 hours a day.

To prevent them from dying, Maximus created a solution to keep his members biologically healthy.

As for their psychological state, that was something they had to conquer on their own.

*Roar*

*Roar*

"What is it?" Blane muttered as he manipulated his watch to understand the situation.

"Huh, a beast tide?"

"It should be because it's the ten-year mark..." Cereb said.

"Ten years have passed, huh? I thought we were working here for eternity..." Blane said wearily.

"Let's go, fight to warm up," Cereb cheered.

Killing some monsters had become a hobby that helped them retain their sanity.

After all, armed with Tier 6 weapons, they were practically invincible in this world.

If it weren't for the monsters evolving to Tier 7, they might even have treated this trial as a vacation.

"Let's go, I need to release some of my fatigue," Blane sighed.

Soon, a group of people put down their tasks and became crazed fighters on the battlefield.

They even laid aside their energy weapons, opting for bionic armor, controlling it to butcher the monsters.

...

Above the mechanical vehicle, Maximus watched as they went wild.

"It's still not enough."

Based on their progress, they couldn't create a bomb capable of destroying the world before Tier 7 creatures appeared.

"Should I recruit more?" Maximus sighed.

"Wanderer, initiate the recruitment quota."

[Wanderer: As ordered, Host.]

During this time, the transceiver had been upgraded to cover about half of the world.

Thus, this recruitment could reach millions of people at once.

...

In another part of the world, Silar received Maximus's recruitment message.

"What's this?"

"Recruitment?"

"How audacious."

"Do they not realize that forming groups can escalate the difficulty of this trial?" Silas muttered.

Then it dawned on him. He hadn't come across Tier 6 materials recently.

"Could it be..." Silas's expression grew dark.

He cursed whoever initiated this grouping using every word he could think of.

"Damn!"

"This bastard will make me fail this trial!"

With a grim expression, Silar continued to read the recruitment notice to figure out who was behind this foolishness.

"Maximus?!?"

"How could it be him?"

Silas couldn't believe that Maximus was the one responsible, so he kept reading the article.

A few minutes later...

"So, it is him..." Silas sighed.

He wasn't sure if he should be angry or impressed with Maximus.

He was angry due to the upgraded trial.

But he was also impressed that Maximus had managed to influence the trial to the point that it would upgrade.

After all, even if you formed groups, without a significant threat, it would be meaningless.

"Should I join too?" Silas mused.

"With Maximus and my assistance, there might be some chance of passing this trial..."
