Era of the transmigrating earth-Chapter 1990: The More Doppelgangers, the Better

A flash of light, and Du You once again returned to that special perspective.

This time, the controlled body appeared in a city.

"Main quest to enlist, huh? The second is to kill ten enemies on the battlefield, the third is to ensure the safe transport of supplies. So, my goal is to join the logistics organization, at least at the beginning."

Du You habitually first searched for this mission’s target. As for the sub-quests, they won’t appear until the first main quest is completed. Du You then began to observe the surroundings.

Du You was looking for other adventurers, who definitely do not fit in with this world.

While it’s unknown how many people are in this world, since this is a city, there should be quite a few adventurers to be found here. Adventurers are not quite the same as normal people; there are still some differences.

However, Du You didn’t mind even if he misidentified them, because the shadow doppelgangers created by the Shadow Ring were unlimited. No matter how many died, it wouldn’t affect him. Even if locals were made into doppelgangers, they could still help him accomplish something.

Seemingly wandering aimlessly, in reality, Du You walked to places that were more likely to trigger quests.

For example, the enlistment site he was heading to this time, or other places like mercenary guilds or adventurer associations. Places generally related to combat are more likely to have main quests.

At least in the tasks Du You saw last time and this time, they were basically all related to combat.

"This looks like it, this one too, they’re all so similar, so it’s you then."

As Du You walked, he marked some suspicious people, turning them into test subjects on his list. That night, Du You quietly emerged, releasing shadow doppelgangers.

Although these shadow doppelgangers weren’t strong, their nature was of high quality. They easily blended into the night, unnoticed by anyone. Then, the shadows merged into the selected individuals.

They were all ordinary people, without any special equipment. Being obviously scared yet still choosing to fight, it’s basically impossible for such actions to belong to the natives of this world. These people are most likely adventurers.

As for those high-level adventurers, Du You didn’t bother with them; they all had marks from the world’s will branded upon them, and messing with them would likely get him discovered. Spending a lot of effort to deal with those runes had limited future potential and was not worth it. The targets Du You picked were basically people who came to this world for the first time.

Of course, if it’s the second or third time, it doesn’t matter; after all, Du You wanted newbies.

Those who had some power, unless they had special talents or could assist him, Du You wouldn’t control.

In one night, countless people in the city were unknowingly possessed by shadows in their sleep, and their souls were devoured and fused. The essential difference between both sides was simply too vast.

Although the shadow doppelganger could only reach a maximum of tier six, the ring that created the shadow doppelganger was a top-tier eight artifact.

Faced with this type of shadow assault, those who weren’t that strong had virtually no power to resist.

"This one is, this one isn’t, this one is too...," Du You murmured continuously with closed eyes.

"Great, 589 targets, with over three hundred being adventurers, more than two hundred of them newbies; this time there’s a good number of doppelgangers." To Du You, shadow doppelgangers were certainly a case of the more, the merrier.

After searching for three days, all suspicious targets in the city were cleared out, and only then did Du You set off on the route to enlist.

Because the shadow doppelganger used by Du You was too advanced and utilized through the power of his main body across worlds, such things wouldn’t catch the attention or record of the world’s will.

Three days later, Du You successfully joined the army and also entered the logistics corps.

There was no choice, because even the guy in charge of recruitment had been controlled by Du You. In this world, the strongest people were probably only at tier four at most. Most of these soldiers were ordinary people, even without any levels.

Following the logistics, Du You headed towards the front lines. On the way, as expected, they were attacked.

"I didn’t expect it, this attack even involved adventurers; opposing quests appear so easily."

Du You casually summoned a few Forest Wolves, capturing all the attackers before him. He didn’t kill them because he saw something different about these people, so he controlled them with shadow doppelgangers.

After the control was complete, Du You discovered that indeed, there were adventurers among them, and not a few. Among the more than thirty people who attacked him, twelve were adventurers, which was quite a proportion.

If they hadn’t received similar main quests, Du You wouldn’t believe it even if you killed him.

"So, you’re supposed to attack my side, huh. Alright, I understand, I’ll make sure the teams behind share some with you, ensuring everyone completes the quest." Du You gave orders and had them continue to hide.

Afterward, Du You easily led the team into battle; in fact, everyone in the team was Du You’s shadow doppelganger. No one cared about what had just happened, as if nothing happened at all. The journey to the army was smooth, and the first main quest was finally completed.

"Just as I thought, this world is indeed one that values slaughter. Sadly, things don’t just drop directly."

Du You looked at the densely packed sub-quests and said speechlessly.

Basically, as long as battles were fought on the battlefield, these quests could be completed. Rewards were available based on the number of enemies killed, enemy strength and rank, and various other factors.

"I think I’ll choose the Field Battle Team, it’s a bit more free." Du You thought for a moment and chose the field battle type.

So-called field battles often involve solo or small team assaults. Du You had special Long-Distance Bow and Arrows at hand, and with some arrows, he could easily eliminate many enemy soldiers.

"Looks like, I’ll need to exchange for a space ring when I get back this time." Du You conversed with himself.

The arrows carried were a little too many, but with his attack speed, they might not last long. If people knew Du You wanted a space ring solely to carry arrows, who knows what expressions they’d have.

Don’t they know that the space ring’s specialty is for smuggling missions or transporting bombs and other dangerous goods?

But even if Du You knew, he would be dismissive, because in his hands, arrows were dangerous goods.
