Chapter 279: Chapter 161 Villain Then Be the Villain_1
“I submit!”
Everyone was dumbfounded, and so was Lu Ran.
Because the Breakthrough Secret Realm this time was another very unorthodox Breakthrough Secret Realm.
It related to a derivative profession of Beast Trainers: Necromancer.
The Curse Witch was gone, but necromantic power was also unorthodox.
However, compared to curse power, various countries still conducted a certain amount of research on necromantic power.
After all, the cross-national crime organization “Reaper” made its fortune by mastering necromantic power.
So, as long as it was a somewhat knowledgeable Beast Trainer, they should know a little about the necro system and what Necromancers are about.
Of course, with the resurgence of Spiritual Energy, Reaper had stopped hunting Beast Trainers.
They probably were out hunting extraordinary beings to level up, which somewhat reduced their presence during the busiest times for various countries.
“Does Infinite City conduct inventory checks?”
At this moment, Lu Ran didn’t immediately make a faction choice; instead, he was muttering to himself.
He recalled the Necromancy skill book “Resurgence of Death” in his backpack and wondered if Infinite City had performed a backpack check on him.
“No matter how you look at it, the arrival of this Breakthrough Secret Realm is welcome!”
Originally, Lu Ran’s idea was that a normal Breakthrough Secret Realm would suffice, but now that he encountered what seemed to be an abnormal one, he felt unexpectedly comfortable with it.
He suspected that the source of necromantic power was closely related to the Dragon of Death.
Entering such a Secret Realm would make it more convenient for him to investigate information related to the Dragon of Death.
Additionally, Lu Ran intended to breed an undead pet beast, but this was an area where even Xia Country had little experience.
Just like when he previously enhanced his Culinary Art skills in a Breakthrough Secret Realm, this Secret Realm might allow him to gain some knowledge about the necro system.
And now, the most important issue was the choice of faction identity.
Civilian Beast Trainers participating in the culling of Midwood City… Civilian Beast Trainers lured and corrupted by necromantic power.
The corners of Lu Ran’s mouth twitched.
For a normal Beast Trainer, the first choice seemed obvious, since, no matter how you looked at it, it sounded like the “righteous” side.
And the evil image of Necromancers, due to the existence of the Reaper Organization, had long been ingrained in people’s minds.
Moreover, even on the Star-Moon Continent, Necromancers didn’t seem to be well received.
This wasn’t because the necro system was inherently discriminated against, it was because the growth of Necromancers was too unstable, and long-term absorption of Soul Power could lead Necromancers to lose their reason and become mad, thus doing extreme things.
This was also why the Beast Training Empire considered Necromancers an unstable element and didn’t allow civilian Beast Trainers to privately engage with such power.
Think about it, when a normal Beast Trainer encounters such a Breakthrough Secret Realm, who would want to work together with a group of lunatics that could “go mad at any moment?”
Furthermore, the Empire’s side seemed like a “big thigh” to cling to, hugging the Beast Training Legion’s big thigh might make it easier to get through the Secret Realm.
The first thought in Lu Ran’s mind was to become a member of the expeditionary force.
However, he soon hesitated, because if it was a “faction confrontation mode,” then the other faction couldn’t possibly be a total sinkhole; Infinite City wouldn’t set up the Trialists like that, right?
Civilian Beast Trainers corrupted and lured by necromantic power… If he chose that faction, would he receive some “special status,” some “extra buffs”?
[Most people will definitely choose the side of righteousness. Perhaps all Trialists will choose faction 1.]
[At this time, if I choose faction 2, without considering NPC factors, that means confronting all Trialists with my power alone. If successful, wouldn’t the grade reward be richer?]
[Furthermore, since it’s about being lured and corrupted by necromantic power, it suggests that there’s some alluring source of power within Midwood City—a high chance that only faction 2 will have access to this special subplot.]
[Perhaps, choosing faction 2 could bring extra gains.]
Lu Ran gritted his teeth, wanting to see how Infinite City would arrange his identity for faction 2.
“I choose 2!”
At the same time, the nine Trialists who entered the same Secret Realm as Lu Ran had also made their faction choices.
“1!”
After everyone made their choices, the voice of Infinite City rang out once again.
[Faction selection completed.]
[Breakthrough Mission: Faction Victory!]
[Tip 1: The judgment condition for faction victory is determined by the ownership of Midwood City after 14 days.]
[Tip 2: This Secret Realm is a historical projection. Lifeforms inside cannot be taken out or contracted.]
[Tip 3: …]

Apart from the beginner’s Secret Realm benefit “Data Eye” being gone, the other prompts were not much different from what people encountered during their first Breakthrough Secret Realm. Of course, since it involved PVP rather than PVE, there was an additional exception of death immunity; meaning, if Trialists died, they would be sealed by Infinite City and could still return normally after 30 days.
As the voice vanished completely, everyone felt dizzy, as if the sky and earth were spinning, before they finally arrived in a brand new world.
“Where is this?”
After entering the Breakthrough Secret Realm, the nine people who chose faction 1 opened their eyes to find themselves in a huge martial arts field.
On the opposite side, a middle-aged man in armor approached slowly and said, “I am very grateful that you have lent your aid to the Beast Training Army.”
“Currently, the Beast Training Army is severely undermanned, but as orders are here, to maintain the stability of the Empire, the necro forces in Midwood City must be eradicated.”
