Chosen Evolution: I can load the protagonist template

Chapter 810 MEGA Starmie = Ultraman?
With Cheng Tian's return, the Great Expedition "Tian Zhu" mission was also brought back to the space. Not only have all legion members received the official notification of the start of the Great Expedition, but a brief description has also appeared in the mission center.

The scheduled release date for this mission has been set during the Monthly Trial period, meaning that all players who accept the Great Expedition mission will have their main quests forcibly replaced.

Although Cheng Tian initially wanted to conduct a survey, he then realized that this Heavenly Expedition would most likely be a long-term mission, and a maximum of 15 days of space stay time would simply not be enough.

It would be fine if the Great Expedition didn't progress much, but the worst thing would be if, when it reached the most crucial point, there just wasn't enough time.

Who knows whether tomorrow or an accident will come first? After being triggered by that player in the last instance with PTSD symptoms of "Beyond the Clouds and Mountains", Cheng has no intention of betting on the uncontrollable development of events. So he simply uses the time compression of the Moon Trial, so that even if he stays in Black Myth longer, it will not affect the final progress.

Of course, there was another important factor that led Cheng Tian to make this choice—

Its name is "work-life balance".

The Chosen Space has indeed become an indispensable part of his life, but if he is thinking about how to clear the game and fight dungeons 24 hours a day, then he is putting the cart before the horse.

Cheng Tian wanted to play the game, not be played by it. The Heavenly Court and Mount Ling were the ones eager to punish the gods and Buddhas of the Black Myth, not him.

He also plans to replay Cloud and Mountain, and he's very interested in some newly released games. Cheng Tian has his own scale to weigh what's important and what's not.

Incidentally, we can also take advantage of these twenty days of space stay to let the Great Expedition mission ferment a bit more and see if it will attract another batch of players to become laborers.

Cheng Tian didn't even need to do anything himself; some of the players who had temporarily joined the game and were now officially recognized as White Soldiers began to promote it spontaneously.

Moreover, the promotional slogans are incredibly appealing—

Heavenly Court VS Heavenly Court! Mount Ling VS Mount Ling!

Leaving aside foreigners and those of purely non-Chinese ethnicities, this propaganda slogan is practically a trap for Chinese people.

Some acquaintances or those who were curious chose to delve deeper and learned that it was the Heavenly Court and Mount Ling from "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Monkey King" who were going to join forces to attack the Heavenly Court and Mount Ling from "Black Myth," which were rotten to the core.

Even those who prided themselves on having witnessed all sorts of grand scenes in the Chosen Space had never seen anything like this before.

Unsurprisingly, these Chinese players who were not members of the Sun Legion almost unanimously transformed into Monkey King, scratching their heads in great distress.

This group of people instinctively didn't want to be bound by such large player organizations. Whether it was hearsay or they had real experience, they just didn't want to join a guild. But if they didn't join, they wouldn't get a share of the Great Expedition.

It's awful! It's 10 out of 10, even 9 out of 10!

But just as they were struggling with this decision, the number of members in the Blazing Sun Legion experienced a small-scale surge.

However, since the Smart Head had already completed the team's structure and organization in advance, and the Martian Root and the large number of Martians produced under his command were following these rules, the small-scale increase in the number of people had not yet caused any complicated problems.

Managing a large team is indeed very tiring, and the difficulty increases exponentially with the number of people involved, both in terms of space and reality.

However, in space, there is an advantage that is not very convenient to implement in reality.

That is the law of the jungle within the space, even more naked.

Have you two had a falling out? Let's have a fight in the ring!
Troublemaker! I'll beat you up! A blood feud? A fight to the death!
If your fist is big enough, you can make your subordinates more obedient.

Cheng Tian didn't mind at all the existence of some players who had just joined the guild and were plotting to overthrow their superiors and steal the entire Blazing Sun Legion by defeating him.

Putting aside whether they can actually steal it, defeating Cheng Tian now is already a very difficult task.

However, as the number of players in the legion increased, Cheng Tian quickly noticed a situation that he had previously overlooked: he had never seen any players of Silver rank or above, including in the auction house.

The highest level currently is Bronze.

Cheng Tian wasn't sure whether players at the Silver and Gold ranks had reached another level and were spatially isolated from players below the Bronze rank like himself, or whether Silver and Gold rank players had never actually appeared in the entire Chosen Space.

If it's the former, then it means that the Chosen Space should have another area specifically for accommodating stronger individuals. To explain it in the style of fantasy novels, it's like a mortal ascending to the heavens to become an immortal, but in essence, they just end up in a new map, and then the immortals become mortals that are everywhere in the new map.

If a silver figure suddenly appears on the current map, it's very likely a case of an immortal descending to the mortal realm.

But if it's the latter, it might mean that you have successfully stepped into the ranks of the vanguard of becoming a Silver-tier warrior.

This is not surprising. After all, everything has a development process. In places like the Chosen Space, where the atmosphere for attribute growth is too strong, players should start from scratch and develop little by little.

As for growth rate and dungeon encounters, that's another matter.

Not to brag, but Cheng Tian believed that his growth rate was among the best in the world. He was confident in his abilities. If he really became the first player to reach the Silver or even Gold rank, then perhaps some interesting things would happen.

Cheng Tian could vaguely sense that he was not far from reaching the Silver level, and perhaps this great expedition would be a key opportunity.

But we still have to play the game!
Replaying Cloud and Mountain, completing Black Myth again, and playing new games like Digimon Adventure and Pokémon ZA are all things Cheng Tian needs to finish in just 20 days. It's truly a case of tight schedule and heavy workload.

Player Cheng Tian! Accept the challenge!
"puff!!!"

Upon seeing the pictures shared by fellow members of the game group, Cheng burst into tears and coughed for a long time before recovering.

Bazett, who was holding a tissue box, peeked over and saw a purple Patrick Star with two long legs, standing on the ground with his hands on his hips.

This is Starmie's Mega Evolution form in the new Pokémon game.

Although Cheng Tian could tell that this MEGA Starmie was completely based on Ultraman's form and pose, no one could deny that compared to other Pokémon MEGA forms that have more or less changes in form, Starmie's original materials were almost untouched, with only the thigh material being stretched!

Moreover, the way it moves when it runs is truly indescribable.

If Cheng Tian were to define this MEGA Starmie, he would say it's "abstract".

What?! You're saying Mega Starmie has a base stat total of 660?!
So beautiful!
