Cosmic Professional Gladiator Chapter 340 - Planet Number Six (1)

Chapter 340: Planet Number Six (1)

Planet Number Six had beautiful scenery. At a glance, there was an endless forest with a sea of flowers and a lake. It was beautiful, and a huge and towering building stood amid the forest.

It was a black pyramid!

The black pyramid was more than a thousand meters tall. With Xu Jingming’s vision, he could see tiny figures on the black pyramid.

What’s the test on Planet Number Six? Xu Jingming opened his personal interface and checked the content of the test.

Planet Number Six’s test: Walk up the black pyramid’s steps to the top!

Reaching the top was considered a pa.s.s. Every step of the black pyramid threw the explorer into an illusion. One had to crack the illusion to make the next step.

Reminder: Every illusion is a predicament in life! You have to solve 100 kinds of life crises to reach the top!

A hundred life crises? Xu Jingming frowned slightly.

He moved his feet and turned into an afterimage as he quickly ran over. After pa.s.sing through the forest and lake, he arrived at the foot of the towering black pyramid five minutes later.

The pyramid had four sides for its base, with stairs on all sides! Every step was 12 meters tall!

Climb this black pyramid? Xu Jingming circled the black pyramid and could clearly see a total of 32 explorers on all sides.

At any point in time, there are a total of three batches of explorers. If the number of each batch is the same, there will be about 180,000 people. Xu Jingming looked up at some figures on the black pyramid. There are about 180,000 explorers, but there are only 32 people on the black pyramid?

From the dilapidated Planet Number One to the later Arthropod planet, cold planet, oblivion land planet, neutron star… A large number of explorers were eliminated.

The first batch of explorers have 330 days, and it’s estimated that they end on August 8! It’s already August 5 today, so the first batch of explorers should’ve given up on the test and gone in search of opportunities, Xu Jingming thought. From this angle, it can be deduced that the 32 people on the black pyramid are mainly the second and third batches of explorers.

Xu Jingming instantly deduced the approximate ratio of people arriving on Planet Number Six. A ratio on the order of 10,000 to 1 meant that he was quite outstanding.

Mental illusion? Xu Jingming looked up at the black pyramid in front of him.

Whoos.h.!.+

He leaped up and landed on the first black step on the ma.s.sive flight of stairs.

The moment he landed on the black step, the scene in front of him changed.

Buzz!

The scene in front of him was a blue planet.

Earth? Xu Jingming recognized the planet in front of him at a glance—it was his homeworld.

At the same time, his consciousness quickly plummeted to Earth, then China, and finally into an office desk in an office building.

Huh? Xu Jingming looked at the computer in front of him in a daze. A computer? It’s some antique from decades ago, right?

At the same time, a memory surged into his mind.

My name is Zhang Lei, and I’m a 35-year-old programmer. There are a total of five elderly people in the family—father, mother, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and grandfather. I have a wife and two children? Xu Jingming blinked. The test on Planet Number Six is really impressive. It’s actually based on Earth’s history.

According to the description, this illusion is a life crisis? Xu Jingming was a little puzzled. He could only go with the flow and observe everything in the illusion.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

His phone rang.

Xu Jingming picked up the smartphone in his pocket.

The simple memories he was instilled with made him understand Zhang Lei’s previous 30-plus years very well. As a cosmic lifeform, his consciousness was extremely strong, so he naturally could easily take in all the memories and information.

Xu Jingming tapped the phone gently. “h.e.l.lo.”

“Honey, remember our son’s tuition fees! The tutor has already urged us. Our deposit is running out,” his wife urged over the phone.

“Alright, alright. I’ll pay today,” he immediately said.

Doo— The call ended.

Just as he hung up, another call came.

Huh? Xu Jingming answered the call in confusion—it was from the bank.

“Mr. Zhang Lei, I’m calling to inform you that despite the investment you purchased at my branch reaching maturity, the third-party is unable to return the princ.i.p.al…” The information on the phone stunned Xu Jingming.

…

Night fell.

After a busy day at work, he drove a gas-powered car and arrived home at 10 p.m.

His children were already asleep.

“You’re back?” His mother heated some dishes and placed them on the table. “Don’t always work so late.”

“Okay, got it.” He nodded.

His mother returned to her room and slept with her grandchildren.

His wife walked out of the bedroom and sat opposite him.

“Have you paid the tuition fees?” His wife stared at him.

“I did, I did,” Xu Jingming immediately said. “I did. I bought 180 course hours and was given an additional 20.”

“Remember the estate management fee,” his wife said. “If you don’t pay it… you won’t be able to enter the estate with your car.”

Xu Jingming nodded. Only by paying the management fee could he reactivate his car access pa.s.s.

“Oh right, do you know what day it is tomorrow?” His wife suddenly smiled and looked at him.

Xu Jingming was stunned.

“Acting dumb?” His wife glared.

“Oh, our wedding anniversary!” Xu Jingming immediately answered. “I know.”

“I’ll be waiting.” Only then did his wife return to the room with a smile.

Xu Jingming sat at the table and looked at the food in front of him alone.
