Chapter 447: I, Ye Liangchen, Am Second to None
The Lord God's Space.
Ye Liangchen strolled across the Lord God's Plaza, his ears full of Reincarnators chattering back and forth. Every word of it had to do with the journey he was about to take.
"Did you hear? That advance squad of Reincarnators already cleared Phase One. Makes you envious and jealous at the same time."
A Reincarnator in black battle armor spoke in a low voice, his eyes glittering with hunger for power.
"No kidding. And their side mission, massacring Hell's Kitchen, is basically a feast. Slaughtering ordinary people, nothing complicated about it. Easiest points ever."
A woman Reincarnator beside him chimed in. She gripped a long sword that gleamed with cold light, clearly a capable fighter.
"I thought it'd be some incredibly dangerous mission. Turns out it's just killing and finding someone. Never would've guessed."
A burly Reincarnator shook his head, full of regret, as if he'd missed a golden opportunity.
"Ugh, too bad we're not strong enough. We're stuck here waiting in line. It's driving me crazy." Another Reincarnator sighed, his eyes full of anxiety and frustration.
"I hear they've massacred close to a hundred Hell's Kitchens. The point total's gotta be past a million by now. Everyone's probably getting a few tens of thousands each when this mission's over."
A well-informed Reincarnator let it slip in a low voice, drawing gasps from those around him.
"The Lord God wasn't lying, though. The rewards are huge, but plenty of Reincarnators have died too. Three or four hundred so far. This is definitely the biggest mission in history."
A Reincarnator with a deep, forceful voice said.
"Not enough, if you ask me. Come on, can't the Hell's Kitchen people try a little harder? If they killed off a few more of us invaders, I'd get in sooner.
"At this rate, who knows when my turn'll come." One Reincarnator complained, his voice full of discontent and frustration.
Over the past few days, news of the Lord God's Marvel world mission had spread through the entire Reincarnation Space.
The rewards were huge, and word was there was even a chance to get equipment.
On top of that, the Lord God's blood-red alert had made many Reincarnators hold back at first. But as victory reports kept flowing back into the Lord God's space, everyone realized this mission wasn't hard at all, and the rewards were incredibly generous!
So the whole Reincarnation Space was gripped by a frenzy like never before.
Every Reincarnator, strong or weak, new or old, was going crazy for it, scrambling to get into this instance full of opportunity and challenge.
They were rubbing their hands together, raring to go, as if any second they'd break through the walls of space and throw themselves into an adventure in the Marvel world.
Ye Liangchen, a Reincarnator who had just been through three worlds, was no exception.
Ever since arriving in the Reincarnation Space, he'd dreamed of becoming truly powerful. He craved strength, craved to prove his worth, craved to secure his place in this cruel space.
And this Marvel world mission was, without question, the chance of a lifetime for him.
He stared at the Reincarnation panel in his hand. Tantalizing words glowed on it: [Marvel World. Queue: 3/6,008].
That meant only three people were ahead of him. If he just waited patiently, he'd soon be in the instance he'd dreamed of.
Thinking back on signing up, Ye Liangchen congratulated himself.
Good thing he'd moved fast and signed up right away. Otherwise he'd be fighting over a spot with six thousand other people. The thought alone made his scalp tingle.
By rough estimate, the entire Lord God's space held fewer than ten thousand people.
Add the few hundred who'd already died, and you could say the entire Lord God's space was turning out in force for this mission.
Apart from the top one hundred Reincarnators, who were required to participate, only one hundred Reincarnators like him could go in at any one time.
Each time one of those hundred died, a slot opened up. The competition was fierce, and the chances rare.
At the thought, Ye Liangchen's steps quickened, and the smile on his face widened.
He could practically see himself cutting a bloody swath through the Marvel world, defeating powerful enemies one after another, pocketing precious gear.
He could already see his glorious moment after gaining powerful skills and equipment, becoming someone every Reincarnator looked up to.
Ye Liangchen had worked enormously hard for this mission.
He'd only been through three worlds. His strength had reached Rank Three, but he wasn't satisfied with that.
Over the past few days, he'd even taken out a loan on points and frantically boosted his strength, finally breaking through to Rank Four.
He'd also gathered every bit of intel on Hell's Kitchen. He knew the terrain, the people and the factions like the back of his hand.
As far as he knew, this Marvel world had plenty of superheroes, but not many in Hell's Kitchen, and none especially powerful.
Most of the residents were just ordinary people. The superheroes and supervillains there were generally only Rank Three to Five.
Only characters at Rank Seven were reserved for the strongest Reincarnators.
So Ye Liangchen was confident that as long as he was a little careful, he'd make a killing on this mission.
Ye Liangchen also knew the Marvel world's stories better than most Reincarnators.
He'd heard of the Marvel Universe before he transmigrated. He hadn't watched many of the movies, but he'd heard some of the stories.
As far as he knew, Hell's Kitchen was just a newbie village. Nobody cared about it. It didn't even compare to the Avengers. The only familiar name there was Spider-Man.
Even Iron Man wouldn't be a match for him. So as far as he was concerned, this mission carried no risk at all.
He'd use what he gained from this mission to prove his strength to every Reincarnator.
Just as Ye Liangchen was lost in thought, a cold mechanical voice suddenly rang in his head, breaking his reverie.
「Standby successful. Preparing transport to the Marvel world.」
The words were like a command. Ye Liangchen snapped back to his senses at once.
He took a deep breath and steadied himself, ready for the challenge ahead.
「Countdown begins.」
The mechanical voice sounded again, followed by numbers flickering fast: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
"This time, I'm going to make everyone remember: I, Ye Liangchen, am second to none!"
"Marvel world, Hell's Kitchen, prepare to welcome me!"
