CHAPTER 824: CHAPTER 801: COLLISION

Jiang Xiaoxiao went to the Exchange Center.

It was her first time there.

The Exchange Center was a very modern facility.

Staff members, each with name tags, stood behind counters, dressed in either white suits or white outfits.

They wore polite smiles on their faces.

"Hello! Welcome!"

"Do you need to exchange items or test your physical strength? For items, please go to counter number five; for a physical strength test, you can come with me. What service do you need?"

The polite young lady looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao without showing the slightest surprise at her attire.

She certainly had seen it all!

"I want to do both!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao wanted to see what her physical fitness test results would be.

She was now using her own body, and after receiving quite a bit of popular science information from many people these last days, she found out that everyone’s physical fitness limitations differed here.

Of course, you had to add the acquired enhancement, for which you needed to exchange this Crystal Stone in hand at the Exchange Center for a body enhancement fluid. This body enhancement fluid also came in beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels.

Jiang Xiaoxiao had never seen enhancement fluid.

She also wanted to see how to exchange it.

She’s not short of money.

There are plenty of Crystal Stones.

The Black Horned Dragon generously delivered them waves of harvest, and while the Black Horned Dragon feasted, everyone else reaped plentiful rewards.

"Alright, let’s do the test first, then you can browse the exchange catalog. Please follow me for registration."

Jiang Xiaoxiao followed the fair-skinned, beautiful service staff to a room, where she did a simple registration: name, gender, age, and nothing else.

Jiang Xiaoxiao didn’t hide her identity.

Anyone looking to harm Jiang Xiaoxiao and Youli, whether for revenge or other reasons, had nothing to do with her.

But she still had a super strong daughter.

Might as well rely on her.

She wanted to keep a low profile but couldn’t.

She needed to climb to the hundredth floor, but staying low wouldn’t get her there.

Since she couldn’t remain low-key, she decided to be a bit higher profile to show her value; maybe then opportunities would be different.

The Demon’s Eye is said to be a product of tasks assigned by the Exchange Center, and acquiring it from monsters would require immense luck. Jiang Xiaoxiao didn’t want to gamble on luck.

It is said that achieving physical strength of level S directly rewards three hundred Demon’s Eyes.

The Demon’s Eye has a more advanced role in strengthening the body! Obviously, they all belonged to the trash heap.

Rumor has it that on the 900th floor, no new life is born, no fresh blood joins, and the strongest warriors have a physical strength level of only B. On the hundredth floor, supposedly everyone is an S-level warrior.

That’s the difference.

The closed door revealed nothing about the inside.

"This is the testing area, walk in, relax, it’s not dangerous, don’t be afraid, the quicker you walk, the better your test results. Where you reach determines your level."

The service staff member Xiao Li looked at this clueless girl before him; it was rare for anyone to come for a physical strength test these days.

Now there’s even a newbie! Quite rare.

But for them, it’s just another procedure.

It’s been ten years without a test on the 900th floor; this is the first time.

The upper management should be pleased.

Jiang Xiaoxiao opened the door and walked in.

It was a bright corridor.

Apart from countless lights, there seemed no threat, the temperature was very comfortable, the most comfortable temperature for the human body, with nothing inside causing tension.

On the corridor walls were images of various monsters, very lifelike. At least, the instant Jiang Xiaoxiao stepped in, she felt an imposing pressure from the monsters.

"Sister, sister, you must go faster! I detected a faint meteor fragment aura at the end of the corridor, it’s weak, but it’s definitely there, so hurry!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao was instantly excited.

Meteor fragment, what a lucky find.

She began to move quickly.

Upon entering the corridor, Jiang Xiaoxiao noticed a powerful pressure inside, with a strong pull from the ground, seemingly adhering her to it.

Every step felt as heavy as Mount Tai.

Jiang Xiaoxiao wondered if this was the test?

She tried lifting her leg; it seemed possible.

She took one, two, three steps.

By the fifth, she was struggling.

It was hard to move forward.

The issue was the monsters on the wall, initially thought to be just impressions, suddenly lunged at her.

Real collision told Jiang Xiaoxiao she was finished.

These were real monsters.

Her combat experience was zero.

Jiang Xiaoxiao took a breath, unwilling to pause.

She unsheathed a dagger that gleamed coldly, and with one slash, the monster was killed instantly.

Jiang Xiaoxiao sighed in relief; it was still an image, but too realistic.

Another Scorpion-shaped Beast lunged forward, and believing it to be a projection, then...

It was like being hit head-on by a hundred-ton freight train.

If not for her legs being firmly attached to the ground, she would’ve flown out.

Her entire body felt torn apart, unsure if any ribs were broken, but she could barely breathe.

Going to die!

Was this an image?

At the moment of impact, a cold flash appeared at Jiang Xiaoxiao’s brow, seemingly triggering an explosive shock in the corridor.

All the images on the walls shattered.

Jiang Xiaoxiao finally breathed in relief.

She felt her ribs; they weren’t broken.

"Sister, touch me, touch me!"

This sounded so indecent to Jiang Xiaoxiao.

But she still touched the ring’s face, and the red Other Shore Flower suddenly emitted a glow.

Jiang Xiaoxiao instantly felt a faint power flickering ahead.

The pull beneath her feet suddenly lessened.

Jiang Xiaoxiao began to move forward, one step, two steps, three steps.

Strangely, the resistance was gone, making her seem much faster.

She took less than a second to reach the corridor’s end.

There, on the wall, was a large screen with a thumb-sized round Crystal Stone in its groove.

Jiang Xiaoxiao placed her finger on it, and the ring automatically adhered.

The entire corridor went dark.

Indeed.

The entire corridor was now pitch-black.

"Sister! Sister! It’s absorbed; even though it’s not much, it’s a part of number ten."

Jiang Xiaoxiao felt smug, finally finding a piece; even a small gain counts.

It indeed looked small.

She could leave now! A bit guilty! Did she break the testing room?

Would she owe money?

No money for that.

Jiang Xiaoxiao hurriedly walked out of the testing room.

After opening, the testing room automatically linked to the testing system.

This was a fixed system.

Each floor had a testing room.

The 900th floor was the lowest level.

Two testers sat together chatting idly.

It was too boring.

Their daily work was staring at this big screen; with no tests for ten years, their job was just to idle away.

The two were flipping through a magazine, commenting on the women.

Which had a better figure, which was more voluptuous.

The screen then shattered with a crack.

Exactly!

The whole screen broke.

The two abruptly stood up.

What happened?

Where am I?

I was only looking at a magazine.

To such an extent?
