I Picked Up Talents in the Interstellar Battlefield

chapter 412 - Entering the Mythical Society Code Name—Hades the King of the Underworld


Night slowly enveloped Frost Flower Star, and the Pill Tower shed its daytime hustle, leaving only silence flowing through its long corridors.In an unmanned storage room, the light was dim. Only in the deep shadows of the corner sat Qin Tian, quietly, his fingertips holding the golden token. The "Giant Gate" pattern on the token was faintly visible in the weak light, making his eyes deep and his thoughts unreadable."Are you conflicted about whether to join that Mythology Society?"A voice suddenly echoed in his mind, breaking the silence. Qin Tian's eyes moved slightly, and he softly said, "Breiz, you finally decided to speak."The owner of this voice was Breiz, the Gun Soul from Burning Heaven Purgatory. Since the last battle in Demon Suppression Abyss, he had not spoken on his own initiative for a long time."What do you mean, 'finally decided to speak'?" A phantom figure of a flaming demon appeared out of thin air in front of Qin Tian, its hooves stepping on the air, scattering tiny sparks. "I was never asleep; it's just that recently you've either been busy protecting people or cultivating. Life has been too boring, so I couldn't be bothered to talk."Breiz's gaze fell on the golden token in Qin Tian's hand, sweeping over the Giant Gate pattern, his tone a little nonchalant: "I've seen many secret societies like this; they're essentially small cliques. Some gather alchemists and artificers, others hide assassins and killers. This Mythology Society simply uses 'geniuses' as its threshold."At this, Breiz specifically glanced at Qin Tian. In his opinion, Qin Tian was undoubtedly an absolute genius.His incredible growth rate, coupled with his endless abilities and trump cards, was something he had never seen anyone comparable to in his long years of conscious existence."I don't know what you're worried about, but in my opinion, there's no harm in checking it out." Breiz dropped his joking tone, his expression becoming calm. "Anyway, with your ability, you must have already checked if there's any problem with this token. As long as there's no threat, going to see these so-called 'top geniuses' is better than constantly revolving around that girl from the Dongfang Family."Qin Tian's fingertips traced the pattern on the token. On the very day he received the token, he had thoroughly investigated it using the power of the Divine Weapon Emperor.This token could not only connect to a virtual space through soul power but also had a built-in miniature spatial array for storage, making it a practical piece of equipment, and indeed, it posed no threat.What he truly hesitated about was the mysterious identity of the Man in White, "Emperor Zhenwu." He wasn't sure if he should get involved in such an unknown power circle too early.But then he thought, if the Man in White's words were true, and the Mythology Society gathered the empire's top geniuses—those who were no less than the direct descendants of holy blood, and even far surpassed them in certain fields—they must possess unique resources, intelligence, or rare cultivation methods.If he could establish connections with these people and exchange information and resources, it would be a great help to his future endeavors and growth.After careful consideration, the hesitation in Qin Tian's eyes gradually faded. He looked up at Breiz and nodded gently: "Alright, then I'll give it a try.""It's about time!" Breiz immediately perked up, a cunning smile appearing on his flame-formed face. "Then remember this: when you see those geniuses, ask them if they have any fire-attribute treasures. If they do, remember to get them for me!"A black line instantly appeared on Qin Tian's forehead, and he glared at him in annoyance: "I knew it; you suddenly came out to persuade me, you definitely had ulterior motives. So you want me to find treasures for you.""What do you mean, 'ulterior motives'?" Breiz didn't care at all; instead, he laughed even harder, the sparks on his hooves scattering more densely. "We have a symbiotic relationship, after all. If I get stronger, it benefits you too, right? Alright, I won't disturb your preparations. I'll wait for your good news!"As his voice faded, the flaming demon's figure gradually dissipated as if blown away by the wind, leaving only a trace of scorching heat in the air.Qin Tian looked at the golden token in his hand, took a deep breath, and gathered a faint wisp of soul power at his fingertips, slowly injecting it into the token.A hazy mist permeated the surroundings. There was no sky, no ground, and he couldn't even feel the passage of time. Qin Tian's divine soul floated in this hazy space, as if in a state of primal chaos, even his sense of existence becoming blurred.Just then, an emotionless electronic voice rang out of nowhere, echoing in the empty space, clearly entering Qin Tian's divine soul: "Welcome to the Mythology Society virtual space. Please create your virtual avatar and name yourself."As the voice fell, a complex stream of information surged into Qin Tian's divine soul like a tide—it contained the rules for avatar creation: from height and body shape to facial details, from clothing material to accessory patterns, and even the subtle shades of eye and hair color could be freely adjusted. The degree of freedom far exceeded that of ordinary virtual spaces."It's a bit like the character creation interface in online gaming novels I've read before." A hint of novelty arose in Qin Tian's heart. He scanned the various options in the information stream and, without much hesitation, directly used his will to start adjusting.First, his height. He set the virtual avatar's height at around two meters, slightly taller than in reality, making the overall physique appear more upright.Next, his attire. With a thought, a set of all-black armor covered his body. The armor was not heavy plate armor but streamlined light armor, with dark gold bone patterns carved on the shoulder pads and a rhombus-shaped dark purple crystal embedded in the chest, faintly glowing with each breath, appearing both majestic and agile.Subsequently, a matching black crown slowly floated above his head. The edges of the crown were adorned with small dark patterns. There were no overly ornate decorations, yet it exuded a cold aura of looking down on all beings.Finally, for the facial details, he adjusted his features to be more three-dimensional and profound: slightly raised brow bones, a high nose bridge, distinct lip lines, and his original black eyes transformed into mysterious purple, with faint nebulae seemingly swirling in his pupils, making the entire face less stern than in reality and adding a touch of the unique delicacy and aloofness found in a two-dimensional world.In just a few breaths, a virtual avatar combining majesty and refinement was created—black armor covering his body, dark gold bone patterns adorning it, purple eyes, and a crown on his head, like a monarch of the underworld who had stepped out of a mythical legend. It was distinctly different from Qin Tian's real-life demeanor, yet subtly exuded a shared sense of composure and power.The moment the avatar was confirmed, a line of faint golden text appeared out of thin air above his head, solidifying with his will: "Hades, King of the Underworld."The electronic voice sounded again, with a hint of confirmation: "Virtual avatar and codename confirmed, Hades, King of the Underworld. You have successfully created your identity and can freely enter the Mythology Society's public communication area, or wait for the gathering to begin."Qin Tian looked at his virtual avatar, raised his hand ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ to touch the dark purple crystal on his chest, and felt the connection between his divine soul and the virtual space, a flicker of anticipation in his eyes.Next, he wanted to see what secrets this clandestine organization, which gathered the empire's top geniuses, truly held.
