Atlas of Heaven and Earth
Chapter 490: Training Guidance

After finishing the call with Councilor Pei , Chen Chuan poured himself a drink and returned to the sofa, recalling the battle from today.

That actress was actually quite strong, especially with the boost from the Anomaly, her frontal assault was almost unstoppable.

However, the reason he was able to win quickly, besides his understanding of the Anomaly, was also the assistance of his Spiritual Power, which allowed him to quickly combine past experience with on-site judgment, thereby grasping the key to things.

The help from Spiritual Power was greater than he imagined, and this was even before he had learned specific methods of application. He was very much looking forward to what he could learn later.

But for now, he had to master what he had already learned.

In the following days, he continued to patiently polish his foundation.

Mornings were mainly for the tempering method, afternoons were for nourishing Essence Blood and Steady Spirit, as well as some necessary exercises to maintain his condition, and evenings were for using Breathing Technique instead of sleep, with Special drugs taken every two to three days.

On March 5th, a notification from Councilor Pei suddenly appeared on his Boundary Token.

After receiving it, he prepared and went out, driving to the office building where the training class was last time, and took the elevator upstairs.

Stepping into the venue, he found that there were more people this time than last time, about fifty or sixty, mostly young people, many of whom were the young officers he had seen before.

There were about five Third-Limit Martial Artists , including him.

Two of them seemed very experienced, but the other two lacked the sharpness of a Martial Artist , appearing very reserved instead.

He thought for a moment that these two were likely not trained through traditional Martial Combat, but received instruction from teaching teacher within their families, and then reached this level.

After all, with talent and ample resources, and being able to hire a teacher skilled in teaching, it was possible to achieve this.

In the middle of the venue, the training equipment from last time had been moved away, and soft mats were placed instead. The mats were slightly higher than the ground, allowing people to sit cross-legged or put their legs down. In front of the mats were low tables, on which were placed bronze Incense burners.

"Captain Chen ." Someone greeted him from behind.

Chen Chuan turned around and saw that it was Ding Mai . He responded and walked over. Ding Mai came over, shook his hand, and said happily, "Captain Chen , I knew you would be invited here today."

He then said regretfully, "Unfortunately, I only have ten days of leave, and I have to go back in three days. I can only receive three days of guidance at most. I'll treat you to a meal before I leave, you must come."

Chen Chuan said, "Let me know the time, I will definitely come."

While speaking, he glanced outside and saw Fang Zhixin talking to a young officer. He didn't see Little Jin this time.

After chatting for a few minutes, he suddenly sensed something and looked ahead. Everyone had stopped talking, and Chen Bitong walked out from the room in the back.

"Master Chen ." Everyone greeted him, offering their regards.

Chen Bitong nodded in response. He came to the front of the venue, looked at everyone, and said, "Now that everyone is almost here, let's begin. Third-Limit Martial Artists , stay behind." He turned to Fang Zhixin and said, "Zhixin, take the rest to the next room."

Fang Zhixin nodded and said, "Okay, teacher ." Then he led the non-Third-Limit Martial Artists to the next room. After they left, Chen Bitong said to Chen Chuan and the others, "Please, everyone, take a seat."

The group dispersed, each choosing a spot. Chen Chuan also came to a soft mat nearby and sat down.

After everyone was seated, Chen Bitong said, "You are the first members of my training class. If anyone can't keep up with the pace, or ranks last, then I will quickly replace them and bring in someone more suitable."

He then looked at the few Third-Limit Martial Artists , including Chen Chuan , "Most of you have your own teaching teacher , who tell you how to cultivate Martial Arts. They must know you better than I do and know your specific progress, so I won't say much about these things.

What I mainly teach you is how to fight large creatures in the Convergence Zone, how to confront the remnants of the Old Imperial Family, and how to deal with those existences from the other side."

He said, "After these days of effort, I have obtained permission from the Municipal Government to directly connect Majestic Light District to Yi Mu , thereby mobilizing the largest amount of simulated resources."

As he spoke, the surrounding scene gradually changed. The Training Hall dissolved away, the sky gradually became dark, and snowflakes began to fall around, with the temperature starting to drop noticeably.

Chen Chuan realized that this situation was almost a reproduction of the Convergence Zone, at least he couldn't tell the difference.

And...

He saw an extra line on his Boundary Token, which was to facilitate his observation of the Activation Index.

Could it be that simulations can also generate Activation?

Chen Bitong stood in front, his background becoming a wilderness. He said, "No Active Consciousness Entity and inactive consciousness body can compare to Yi Mu . It is the most powerful organism in Central City, an important node of the World Ring. Some things simulated here are not much different from real-world existences."

Chen Chuan clearly knew that such energy field resources were difficult to obtain, so it seemed that Chen Bitong "s contact with Government officials, even with Council President Quan , was not solely for his own benefit.

Chen Bitong continued, "What I need to tell you is that this training has a certain degree of danger. Some existences, even if only simulated through the Biological Field, can still really appear. Although it may only be a part of it, not the whole, once it appears, it must be eliminated in a timely and safe manner.

If you find it difficult, or think you can't meet my requirements, then you can quit early. There are other students waiting for your spot outside, make room for them."

The Martial Artists sitting below all had serious expressions, and none chose to quit.

Chen Bitong waited for a while before saying, "Since no one is quitting, let's begin."

As if in a daze, Chen Chuan suddenly realized that everyone around him had disappeared except for Chen Bitong in front of him, so he stood up from the mat.

Chen Bitong said to him, "I am now using Yi Mu "s energy field Strength to individually connect with all of you. The me you see now is also a Simulation of myself, almost identical to myself. This allows me to provide you with one-on-one guidance.

Captain Chen , follow me." With that, he turned and walked in one direction.

Chen Chuan looked around, stepped forward, and followed.

Chen Bitong said as he walked, "To facilitate training, this Simulation will simulate a scene I once experienced in a base defense battle. To reduce resource consumption, it will mainly show the enemy. You need to come forward to confront them.

During the process, I will give you some guidance, and afterwards, I will score you.

The scoring report will be an important reference for the upper levels of the Base, including the distribution of Special drugs and the promotion of ranks. This report will be consulted for evaluation."

At this moment, the ground next to them suddenly cracked, revealing a huge bulge, and then a bug with a huge mouth crawled out, its sharp forelimbs constantly slashing, driving its body outward. Its abdomen had nearly transparent sacs, and its body was covered in a deep gray, uneven, solid carapace.

At the same time, a foul odor of soil and humus was emitted.

Although the two were only two or three meters apart, and the thing came out almost touching them, Chen Bitong remained very calm.

He said, "You should have learned about some creatures of the Convergence Zone at the Base. This is a Rot Worm, properly named "Wei Earth-Eroding Insect'. In the Convergence Zone, they are the Base's biggest threat.

They can travel quickly underground and secrete a very special corrosive liquid. The liquid can erode concrete, building materials, and metal in a short time. A swarm of Rot Worms can cause buildings to collapse and the ground to sink.

But they have difficulty turning, and they have a huge weakness." As he spoke, he casually pushed, and the worm, which was more than two meters long, was immediately flipped over.

"The sacs under its body are storage bags for the corrosive liquid and the location of Larva incubation, so as long as it's flipped over, due to instinctive restraint, it can't flip itself over."

Chen Chuan "s eyes flickered slightly. He could see that Chen Bitong was using a very Gao Ming Skills, with a unique way of exerting force. Just a touch was enough to flip the entire worm over.

While they were talking, one raised pit after another appeared on the ground, and then densely packed Rot Worms crawled out.

Chen Bitong didn't seem to care much, just leading Chen Chuan forward. If a worm approached, he would simply push it over, leaving behind hundreds of Rot Worms lying on their backs.

Before long, he stopped. A Base fortress appeared ahead.

"Captain Chen , your main target is there."

Chen Chuan looked up and saw the Base gate was wide open, as if it had suffered severe damage. Above it stood a person wearing full Armor, with a metal faceplate and holding a long spear.

This reminded him of the Iron Demon he had seen before.

"This is a remnant of the Old Imperial Family, an opponent I once defeated in a defense battle.

This person has undergone targeted activation using the technology of the Old Imperial Family. His martial rank is higher than the Iron Demon you encountered. He is an Imperial Guard, and his level of integration is also higher. If the Iron Demon still had some exploitable flaws according to your description, then this person can perfectly coordinate his body."

Chen Bitong looked at him, "Do you have confidence in dealing with such a target?"

Chen Chuan looked up and said calmly, "The Iron Demon was no match for me, and this person will be no different."

Chen Bitong said, "Then I'll give you ten minutes to defeat him within ten minutes,"

Chen Chuan said, "It won't take that long."

He stuck the Snow Emperor Blade into the ground, then grabbed the handle and walked forward, slowly drawing the blade from its scabbard with the sound of metal friction.
