Those who reincarnate must die.

There was neither a grand victory banquet nor a final summary speech. After the hero selection was completed, all the heroes turned into flames on the spot and returned to their respective altars.

Is this the number twelve altar?

Zhang Lang looked around and saw that it was no different from Altar No. 36, just a larger sacrificial altar with thirty-six torches in a circle, ten of which were currently lit.

Zhang Lang was the only one in this batch who had never done a Hero-level mission. During the selection process, the seniors explained the rules of the Hero-level mission to him.

Similar to the sacrificial period, the hero's mission cycle is also one month, but the missions are divided into two types: regular missions and battlefield missions.

The regular tasks are similar to those done during the sacrificial period: being teleported to a certain world to complete a task, etc. Of course, this time the world being teleported to may not be the world of the Shen tribe itself.

Normally, the altar can only send reincarnators to mission worlds occupied by their own race, but there are exceptions.

Every mission world has an implicit indicator called "belonging power." If a world suffers negative effects such as environmental damage, population decline, and civilization decay due to war, famine, pandemic, or natural disasters, its belonging power will decrease. When the belonging power drops to a certain level, other races can send heroes into the world to attempt to conquer it through various missions.

Therefore, the tasks assigned to reincarnators by the altar are all aimed at increasing their own race's sense of belonging and reducing the degree of possession by other races.

The specific details will be elaborated upon during the mission.

As for battlefield missions, as the name suggests, they are the famous dimensional battlefields. In these missions, heroes of different races will enter the same place and clash head-on under certain rules.

This is somewhat similar to the special rules during the sacrificial period, except that the special rules involved competition between sacrificial animals of the same race, while battlefield missions were contests between heroes of different races.

Both types of missions are random, and the probability of their appearance is difficult to determine. However, both are definitely much more difficult than the missions from the Sacrifice era. Therefore, many newly promoted heroes find that although they have leveled up and become stronger, the rewards they can obtain have decreased significantly.

In addition to these, after becoming a hero, the Reincarnator can stay in the altar for a longer period of time. Apart from the half hour before and after each mission, they can enter the altar at any time at other times. However, the total time between two missions cannot exceed seventy-two hours.

In this way, if one trades with other reincarnators in the real world, one can return to the altar to store and retrieve items at any time, which is much more convenient.

Back at the altar, Old Mo clapped his hands: "From today onwards, we are all comrades-in-arms, partners, and family... No new members will join us until the next selection competition. We will have to work together to get through the next few missions."

"It wasn't convenient at the venue earlier, but now that we're back home, let's all introduce ourselves systematically, what we're good at, and what special abilities we have. This will make it easier for us to cooperate when we're on missions in the future."

"Of course, we old folks should set an example first." As he spoke, Old Mo coughed lightly, "I've completed over twenty missions at the Hero level. My highest water attribute is 96 points. I'm good at healing and have two healing skills, both of which are rare. In addition, my energy enhancement is a plant-based spell that can change the environment to some extent. I'm good at giving my teammates some buff magic effects..."

After Lao Mo finished his introduction, Lu Ren stepped forward: "I've entered the seventh level of Heroic-level worlds. I'm skilled in shooting, and my wood, water, and fire attributes are all over seventy. My prized weapon is this!"

As he spoke, he picked up a pair of miniature submachine guns. Both of these were rare weapons, and when combined, they had a set effect, making them quite powerful.

"Didn't you use a bow and arrow before?" Zhang Lang recalled their past collaboration.

"Hehehe, bows and arrows still have limitations..." Lu Ren scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "After that mission, I drew this submachine gun and successfully switched to this weapon..."

Zhang Lang nodded. Archery and shooting don't conflict in many ways, and the bend isn't too big.

Next up is Thunder, still hidden inside his armor, speaking in an electronic voice: "As you can see, my biggest upgrade is this power armor, a rare-grade piece of equipment. It can carry various types of technological weapons and has special-effect personal equipment that can be taken into any world regardless of conditions. In the team, it will be responsible for fire support and acting as a meat shield..."

When the topic of tanks came up, Thunder seemed to hesitate for a moment, as if he bent down to glance at Zhang Lang.

The last to speak was Mia, the girl with twin tails: "Well, I entered the class before you. My fire attribute is the highest, over 100 points! I also have two strength-related enhancements: Heavy Muscles and Doubled Fire Attribute Effects. So don't let my small stature fool you, I'm not light at all. In terms of strength, I'm about the same as a burly man with 100 fire attribute points, and my striking power is even stronger!"

As she spoke, the girl even took out an exaggerated greatsword from the weapon rack and flexed her not-so-obvious biceps for everyone.

Now that the veterans have finished their introductions, it's the newcomers' turn.

Le Xinyi spoke first: "I have a high water attribute, enhanced by my fox spirit bloodline, and I'm skilled in charm magic. I also know a bit about various weapons. If we need to deal with the natives, I can come in handy!"

As she spoke, a pair of white fox ears actually sprouted from the top of her head, adding a touch of charm to her playfulness.

"Bloodline enhancement?" Lu Ren's eyes lit up. "This is rare even among heroes, and its growth potential is very high! We've struck gold!"

"Don't just focus on my sister, I'm not bad either!" Ye Peng stepped forward. "Do you know why I ranked lower than Xin Yi in this assessment? Because none of the projects were suitable for me!"

As he spoke, the guy pulled a card from the weapon rack: "Get out of the way, everyone! I'm not responsible if I run you over!"

With that, he activated the card and tossed it to the ground. With a loud bang, the card instantly transformed into a gigantic robot over eighty meters tall, its massive legs taking up almost half the altar!

"Wow, this is the Pacific Rim!" Lu Ren exclaimed in admiration, and the others were also amazed by this magnificent steel giant.

"It's impressive, but many tasks are inconvenient..." Thunder's electronic voice complained.

"What did you say?" Ye Peng immediately became displeased. "Are you upset because I outdid you? It's your mecha that's so small, it's not even big enough to fill my teeth!"

Thunder wasn't angry: "To make it easier for reincarnators to carry large equipment, the altar allows them to bring large equipment into the world in the form of cards. However, once it appears in the mission world, unless it returns to the altar, the equipment cannot be converted back into cards. You big robot, if you appear too early, how will you carry and hide it?"

"This..." Ye Peng scratched his head awkwardly. Old Mo smoothed things over, saying, "It can be used as a secret weapon! Hopefully, we won't need it in normal times, but if a crisis occurs, we'll have to rely on Ye's robot to take the lead..."

"Look how eloquent the altar master is!" Ye Peng found a way out and put the giant robot away.

"Acting altar master, acting altar master..." Old Mo corrected, "I haven't passed the altar master's test yet..."
