Chapter 950975 (2/2)
Then, Sheyan detected the s a heap of moldy sails and rotten wood, and found the bloodstains on the ground The blood had piled up into a thick layer, which indicated that the spot had not been scrubbed or cleaned at all
After that, Sheyan found a strange thing in the corner — a broken crib And the inside of the crib was full of rats!
Big, strong adult rats!
These rats, with their tails at least thirty centi, had eerie blood-red eyes They quietly and neatly squeezed inside the crib, laying there ely meek
But as soon as Sheyan approached them, all the rats opened their s They screeched and glared viciously at Sheyan Any ordinary person who saw them would no doubt cry out in fear
Chapter 964: The Main Character Setting
Sheyan was a person who dared to face a Zerg Rush head on A dozen rats wouldn't faze hi the hostility of the rats, he went to the bloody spot and half knelt down to give it a closer inspection He found some flesh in the dried pool of blood There were so others
He stood up, pondered for a moment, then walked around to the captain's cabin There, he saw an old canvas bed that was familiar to him This should be Sanzi's bed It was really very obvious because there was a poster of Sanzi's favorite actress above the bed
Sheyan sat down on Sanzi's bed in silence A sensation of wetness suddenly transertips He looked down and saw that there were large spots of wet ether It see the pillow
When Sheyan saw this, it tugged at the softest part in his heart He could vaguely ier, curled up in bed and cried alone It was an iuilt
It was because Sheyan knew this non-blood related brother of his really well that he could feel Sanzi's heartache so vividly
Next, Sheyan rued around and found that there were soh thehteen-style practical co, etc… He picked up a few DVDs and saw that they were all instructional DVDs for cale
Just then, Sheyan suddenly heard a sound frohtly At first, he intended to leave, but after thinking about it, still decided to just stand there and wait
It should be noted that a stor and Sheyan was currently on a boat The sound of the waves, the howl of the wind, and the squeaking of the shi+p ether noisily It was really hard to detect any other noises if one did not listen carefully
Unexpectedly, after a while, the sound from outside seemed to have disappeared Sheyan revealed a trace of surprise but he still decided to stay on the boat He deliberately walked a few steps inside the cabin
At thatopen and a dozen odd large rats rushedabilities and could juh as a person's face They bit down on Sheyan with their sharp teeth Next, a dark silhouette rushed forith its body crouched low, tightly grasping a fish-cutting knife with a cloth wrapped around its handle
An ordinary people would have been distracted by the rats and ended up being stabbed by the fish-cutting knife!
Sheyan flung his left hand and instantly swept the dozen odd rats away The rats squeked noisily as they slammed into the wooden wall Some of theht hand quietly slid down and grabbed the knife Although the blade was sharp, it only hurt his skin
The silhouette turned out to be Sanzi The expression he wore on his face was one of ritted teeth, “I'll kill you!… Oh, wait Brother?”
Sheyan glared at Sanzi with a smile that did not reach his eyes and said, “You sure were busy behindat Sheyan, Sanzi shi+vered all over He suddenly lost his strength to stand and collapsed to the ground Then, he hugged Sheyan's legs and broke down in tears He wasn't crying due to sadness, but just to release his emotion He was on the brink of collapse due to pressure
Sheyan could only sigh He said, “Now that I think about it, it should be ed you into this mess”
“When I asked you to buy some mantises for me, I should've known that you would be curious You're someone ouldn't stop until you find out what you want to know Unfortunately, I ay too busy back then, and I was really tired too When I returned to the real world, I was too busy relaxing lected the fact that you would definitely get curious Aht?”
Sanzi nodded
Sheyan narrowed his eyes and asked, “How did you get dragged into the dahtmare realm?”
Sanzi answered while he cried, “Brother Sheyan, I was just curious While you were away, I went to the place where you concocted the medicine For some reason, when I went down the stairs, it felt like there was no end to it and I couldn't get to the bottoot into a cave, and I slept in it”
“Then, when I woke up, I felt hot all over, and the cave had turned into a transparent data cabin withoutain, I was already sent on an adventure in a nightmare world”
Sheyan listened patiently to Sanzi's experience Sanzi wouldn't lie to hi the truth Sheyan felt that the way Sanzi entered the realm was quite different
As far as Sheyan knew, the people selected by the real will to survive, very resolute determination and were very persistent And when these people were forced to into a really desperate situation, their spirits would be heightened to a certain level It was then that the nightn contracts with theends and myths, which would often depict people ere in desperate pain or anger being te to Sheyan's speculation, the relationshi+p between the realm and a contestant may be similar to the relationshi+p between a radio and a radio station:
When strong-willed huhtened in near-death situations, their brain waves would naturally undergo soth to a wavelength that the nighthtmare realm could then rescue them
But Sanzi's experience was very uncommon However, it was not without precedent either There were ends We could often hear stories of people getting lost and mysteriously found themselves in a beautiful place, which they would often think as fairyland Thethese stories in Chinese literature were the legend of Ranka ( enwikipediaorg/wiki/Ranka_(legend) ) and the Yellow Millet DreabinYellow_Millet_Dream )
Therefore, Sheyan speculated that Sanzi may be someone as naturally born with a brain wave that had a “wavelength” very close to the “wavelength” of the night ordinary as a triggering point to be noticed by the realm This should be a kind of natural-born talent
Sheyan contemplated for a moment before he nodded and said, “The first world is always the es froreat that you ree He said with sorievance, “Brother, how coht adventure
Sheyan was flabbergasted, “Which world did you experience?”
“titanic As soon as I woke up, I was already on board,” Sanzi seemed very impressed with the world Now that he finally had sohtmare realm, the words just flowed out of his mouth
“The shi+p was such a luxurious and exquisite thing! On the shi+p, I enjoyed delicious food, beautiful wos that I've never experienced before Oh, I can still reras…”
Sheyan frohen he heard that, “Did none of the other contestants coed his shoulders, “There were no other contestants It was a world prepared exclusively for hed two times and asked,”What was the main mission? ”
Sanzi pondered for a moment before he answered, “Survive the shi+pwreck I also saved the feree of coonist had Jack's protection so she wouldn't have died anyway Why didn't you save Jack instead? ”
Sanzi felt wronged as he answered, “Bro, do you think I'ht of that In fact, I couldn't NOT save hi Sanzi's words, an absurd idea that was almost impossible crept into Sheyan's mind He enquired in astonish his elder brother's surprised expression, Sanzi could not help laughing, “Yup, that's right When I entered that world, I was assigned to be Jack”
The setting of a main character! Sheyan had only heard these kind of stories from others before, but he had never encountered someone who had personally experienced it The realm not only prepared an exclusive world for Sanzi the first tihtmare world, they even made hi was definitely not as sionist's identity It onist had a lot of bonuses compared to the rest of the characters A contestant who becaonist could also enjoy those bonuses when they were in that world
Have you seen any protagonist as shot in the head in the middle of the story, or died froh bonus in luck! Sheyan looked at Sanzi's bea smile and instantly knew that he certainly did not miss the opportunity to spend soonist
“I see,” Sheyan smiled and said, “The reason you didn't tell ht that place was fun, huh? Ho back if you'd toldInnate Ability
In response to Sheyan's questioning, Sanzi blushed “No, it's because I received a notification which said that I can't tell this secret to ordinary people If I do, the person I told will be killed What if you're only in the process of studying the daht be hurt
Sheyan sfully as he said, “Okay, I believe you; I believe that this is the main reason But I also believe that you made that decision because you were afraid I would never let you in again This fucking realm If I were to leak the secret, I would be the one punished, but in your case they would only punish the person you told It seems that the damn realm really favours you”
When it caes, Sanzi had a lot to say “Of course I've e person who enters the realm is called a contestant Those that the realm considers to have some potential are called Seeded Contestants Those with even more potential are called Candidates Finally, elites like me are called the Chosen Normal contestants can only request for help from the realm, but for Chosen like us, the realreat help to thehtly He suddenly thought of Hakeem, whom he had killed That woman also held the title of a Seeded Contestant They should be those recognised by a real to their potential
These geniuses were definitely very scarce After he killed Hakeem, a Seeded Contestant who had passed the test of the G Realered the G realet by that realm It was evident how much importance the realms placed on their Seeded Contestants If that's the case, Sanzi would probably get even her category of talent above yours?”
“There is,” Sanzi nodded “The eniuses are called the Apostles”
“Apostles…”When Sheyan heard the naed in his mind It was hard to believe that someone as powerful as that was only a duplicate!
Sheyan only took 4 out of the Cardinal's seven deadly sins and he was already on the verge of death! If the Cardinal he faced was the real thing and not just a duplicate, Sheyan would never have escaped That guy was probably one of the so called Apostles!
Sheyan asked Sanzi to sit down He looked around and s that you're a su creatures?”
Sanzi scratched his head and laughed as he said, “Well, brother, you know that I've liked feeding stray dogs and cats since I was a kid Sometimes, they would even do what I tell them to”
Sheyan nodded He recalled that when Sanzi was still a kid, he could tame a sparrow to become even more obedient than a reared chicken He could even use the sparrow as a carrier pigeon to send love notes to girls in other classes
Sanzi continued, “When I went through the titanic world, I got the legendary Heart of the Ocean, and somehow it fused withskills It's a pity that I only had a lucky encounter like that in my first world”
Sanzi had complete trust in Sheyan so he showed Sheyan his personal innate ability without the slightest hesitation
[Chosen contestant No XP's Outstanding Innate Ability: Heart of the Pack (Passive) – When you use your recruitment ability on a creature for the first time, the creature's affection for you immediately increases by 50 points, and even if the recruiter the creature (limited to the first recruitment attempt in 12 hours)]

[Innate Ability Evaluation: A]
Sheyan felt like laughing and crying at the same time The realm sure did favour the Chosen quite a bit In order to prevent theiven so much preferential treat He wouldn't be attacked in his first atte a creature even if he failed, which means he had an extra chance to recruit compared to the other summoners
More crucially, some of the more powerful creatures usually couldn't be resurrected after they died Often, when a powerful creature that a summoner worked hard to cultivate was killed, they would lose al Sanzi could break this limitation
The latter descriptions further introduced Sheyan to the for innate ability which was equivalent to an additional equipment slot compared to the rest of the contestants Also, it seemed that the realm pretty much handed him an equipment that was compatible with his innate ability as soon as he started his adventure in the nightmare worlds! And it was a unique equipment which had no duplicates too!
Sheyan could already i the breakthrough trial in preventing crushi+ng daes and attributes The proble effort and preparation to solve would not even be a probleain looked at Sanzi's tear-stained pillow and said quietly, “You should be crying because you finally realised the cruelty of the nighth you're a Chosen who's heavily favoured by the real all the way After your romantic and lucky encounters on the titanic, you should have experienced the torht?”
“You're right, brother” Sanzi's face was contorted He suddenly yelled in indignation, “But! I wasn't crying because I was afraid of death I…I really regret joining ht that wo me When I found out that she had another ainst me What's worse, she orders me around like a slave afterwards!”
Sheyan's eyes flashed with a fierce killing intention, but they returned to normal alhed and said, “So it's women problems Sanzi, listen toThere are people whose experience were a lot more miserable”
When Sanzi was interrupted by Sheyan, he iot his sadness “There are people who had it worse than ed and said, “You don't believe me? Do you know that the realm has a function to alter appearances? ”
“I do So?” asked Sanzi
Sheyan said mysteriously, “So, sometiuise…and you won't know it until they strip naked”
“That would be worse than
Sheyan saw that he had successfully diverted Sanzi's attention In order to not let Sanziin his grief, he asked, “I guess your party was attracted to your special effect of +3 absolute drop rate?”
Although the increase in absolute drop rate was aeffect For exaold equip silver storyline equip black equipment, the 3 increase in probability would apply to all the drop rates 3 wasn't h probability, but when it applied to the drop rate of equip, it's an astonishi+ng incre when his phone suddenly rang He could tell that it was Zi froht about it, then picked up the call
“hello, this is Sheyan”
The voice of Zi transh her voice was caluilt
“Seaman…we suffered heavy losses in the last world I've let you down ”
Sheyan's heart sank If Zi said they suffered heavy losses, then the loss must be quite considerable! Their last world was the world of Resident Evil and they probably fought around Raccoon City, so there shouldn't have been much risk
Sheyan took a deep breath and asked what he most wanted to know
“How heavy is the loss?”
Zi answered after a moment's silence, “Someone died We failed all our main mission and side missions Everyone has their base attributes and achievement points deducted Our utility points are in the red”
Sheyan closed his eyes and asked with some difficulty, “How did this happen?”
Chapter 966: The New Me to Sheyan for a while, Zi recovered froe of eet into the world on a large scale to interfere with us, but ere set up in a very dangerous situation nonetheless We were defeated under the coinally allied with us but they betrayed us at the most crucial moment! If it weren't for the various powerful survival abilities of the Ace Party, ould have been decimated”
Sheyan's eyes narrohen he heard that He then sighed deeply and said,”Stockholm Party Well done! I'll re tiest the infor tiht buzz in the phone to fill the thousands of kilometers of void between the those delicate and slightly raised lips of hers
The two of them remained silent for several minutes, but the atmosphere was not aard They could clearly understand each other's thoughts The silence, at thatthan any words could
After a while, Zi finally said, “I'ht you such bad news What about you? I think the fact that you're able to answerto the statistics I have, the passing rate of a bloody World does not exceed 50, and the chance of dying during the first breakthrough challenge is higher than 20 So your chances of survival in the last world were actually less than 40
“Don't e survive?” asked Sheyan
“There are always exceptions to everything,” replied Zi with a slight sigh
Sheyan knew that it was a heavy topic, so he s to your statistics, what is the probability of successfully breaking through to a Growth Hunter and surviving the bloody World at the same time?”
Zi was quiet for a moment Sheyan could feel Zi's relieve froood news I've heard in the last 24 hours Well, according to my calculation, it's about 73 You should be part of the 73”
Sheyan laughed again
“Then, according to your calculation, what is the probability of successfully breaking through to a Dual-Specialty Growth Hunter and surviving the bloody World at the sa coht now He knew that she was a very competitive woman, so the fact that he became a Dual-Specialty Growth Hunter would certainly provoke her After a while, she asked in a slightly disgruntled voice, “Did you really e to do that?”
Sheyan said with a nod, “I sure did The doubling of the attributes was really quite troubleso 1000 bonus to HP aled to overcohed with some melancholy
“I knew I should have tried a few th and Physique?”
“Yup, but you haven't answered my question yet”
“I don't have an answer for you, because there's no one crazy enough to atteh a bloody World,” replied Zi with a bitter smile
“Well, this crazythe way – I' and won't believe me”
Zi finally becaly, “You're a totalup Only after that did Sheyan say quietly into the phone, “I think you haven't slept well for a couple of days, have you? Now, have a good rest and relax I know youreally bad You've done your best Leave the rest to me
The one who died in battle was Franklin, who had just joined the teao
At theby their side suddenly turned hostile They already kne strong Zi was, and also knew that Reef was an MT, so they concentrated fire on Brother Black and Franklin with the idea that it was better to break one finger than to hurt all ten
Faced with this situation, Reef could only rescue one of the two Reef had always been a sentimental person The most profound piece of memory he had hen Sheyan and Brother Black rescued hi hundreds of thousands
Therefore, although Franklin showed a very strong will to survive, and Zi also tried her hardest to rescue him, but in the end, the role of an MT was irreplaceable In addition, the external pressure was siether, one of the the Ace Party in the back! If Reef had proht be possible to save Franklin too Unfortunately, that was not the case…
At the last e contestants of two parties joined forces to suppress Zi The e contestant of the last party specialised in dimensional ability, so he was able to first cut off Franklin's attempt to connect to the 'Amniotank', and then cut off Franklin's teleport for to Franklin's demise
Under the enemies' persistent pursuit, the Ace Party could only flee pathetically They did not even have the time to complete the main mission, let alone the side ht but s the bitter pill, quietly accepting the biggest loss the party had suffered since its establishe-scale disease If they had the help of the disease, they wouldn't have fallen into such an e just to run away What'sthat there was so the joint attack of the three parties from behind the scenes!
Zi ithout a doubt, a capable party leader who can handleshe could have done better in this difficult situation Perhaps she lacked Sheyan's sharp intuitive ability to see through things
Uncle Dasi had become suspicious of them lately, so Sheyan and Sanzi dare not leave hoood to make old people worried, but it's not like Sheyan and Sanzi could tell Uncle Dasi about the hardshi+ps they faced So, if Ace Party were to have ain the real world, the others would have to fly to Taipei
The luxurious Gulfstream business plane slowly landed in Taipei Airport amidst the drizzle The roar of the plane and the wind fro patiently on the wet ground Three dejected figures then sloalked down froed them in turn, and slapped thee to eliative emotions in their hearts However, Sanzi noticed that Sheyan hugged the cold beauty with nice legs for at least fifteen seconds and his hands behind her were not that honest, pro the beautiful lady to stoh heels
To be honest, when the others saw Sanzi there, they were rather surprised To bring another person to join their circle would s It showed that this person was a contestant, and he had gained Sheyan's complete trust
Contestants were relatively common, but to earn Sheyan's approval and trust was not an easy feat, so they could not help but pay attention to Sanzi closely They were all quite sharp, especially Zi, who had always been an excellent judge of people They could see that Sanzi, who often hid a few steps behind Sheyan, was naturally timid, which perplexed them
Sheyan ser brother, Sanzi”
Hearing the words “younger brother”, both Reef and Zi frowned slightly They were frankly reluctant to let things like family relationshi+p mix into the affair of the party It would affect objectivity in decision- More importantly, it was not unco interfere with member selection
Sheyan apparently noticed their uneasiness, but he waited until they entered the airport lounge before he laughed and said, “Allow me to make another introduction You can call hireat potential and should be able to fill the gap in the team
“A CHOSEN?!” Reef spit out the coffee he happened to be drinking at that moment “I've only ever heard of Seeded contestants! Do the Chosen really exist?”
Sheyan signaled Sanzi to display to the party his innate ability Sanzi did as he was asked, but he did utter some dissatisfaction
“Bro, I hope the next time you introduce me, you should introduce me as the powerful summoner Sanzi, and not Sheyan's brother Sanzi”
Sheyan narrowed his eyes and smiled as he replied, “Sure, but only if you can beatSanzi's innate ability, they expressed no objection to Sanzi joining Although all of the the brothers as crazy in their hearts Sheyan was crazy in plotting and scheood luck
Sanzi had no objection to Sheyan's proposal He suddenly reht I've told you allabout yourself! The only thing I know about your ability is that you can use animals to make , but there's no way you can beat Seaem
Sheyan looked at Sanzi and smiled as he said, “You want to know ht h feel of the full extent of my ability then But let h”
Sanzi had recovered from his initial aardness He was ti with unfamiliar people, but with Sheyan he was very relaxed He's just sloarot off the plane each had their own unique characteristics Zi was cold and beautiful; she carried an air of a strong independent woance Reef was steady and unshakable, while Brother Black who grew up aunpowder had a ferociousness that no bandits could htly intiin a relaxed ht hint of respect they showed him, his nervousness subsided
“I have more than just a few mutated rats I just can't summon more powerful creatures here,” Sanzi retorted at once
Sheyan had always known that although Sanzi's deduction skills were lacking, he was very good at executing orders He may be at a loss in the face of a chaotic situation, but if he was pointed in the right direction and given orders that he had to carry out right away, he would always co colours So Sheyan iive you the chance to have a duel with lanced at the others and casually said, “I knoe've suffered so as our main forces are still here, we'll always have a chance to coe risk in h I worked with Aziz, the situation was so dangerous that I was only left with my head when I returned…”
The curiosity of Reef and the others were piqued as soon as they heard that The bloody World and the dual-attribute breakthrough were already very interesting, and add to that the cooperation with Aziz and the fact that he returned with only his head left, they were dying to hear the whole story!
So everyone patiently waited for Sheyan to start fro them in on all the details – of course, when he cah trial, little Sanzi had to go to the room next door for a while
“…and that was it” Sheyan ended his story with such a sentence
Both Zi and Reef found his story hard to believe, but Mogensha happened to know both Shali and Stend Mogensha could still vividly remember how the 'Air Cannon' fired by Shali from the air he sed had deflected all 3 of his burst shots away It left a deep impression on him
“A duplicate of the Cardinal was that powerful?” Zi could not help exclaiht back?”
“It's true, but it's not surprising that he was so powerful since he was supposed to be there as the final boss of the Golden Side Mission,” said Sheyan with a bitter sth inal I suspect that the duplicate was a strengthened version of the original Otherwise, nothe power of the Seven Deadly Sins, it was iht back,” Zi speculated with a frown
Sheyan took a deep breath before he said, “That's not the case The Golden Side Mission had actually given us a chance to kill the Cardinal When the Cardinal had just “hatched”, he was actually completely suppressed by my ability”
“In retrospect, the bone words incidents throughout New York were probably a method for the Cardinal to retrieve his weapons If we had destroyed those sites ahead of ti it impossible for him to collect all seven sins, we absolutely had a chance to kill hience resources were severely li suppressed, so we allowed hirow into his final for of the Golden Side Mission had become at least C towards the end
Sanzi was struck with horror as he listened to the story Although he did not see it, just listening to Sheyan trying his best to escape and finally returning to the realh to cover Sanzi with cold sweat
Right then, Sheyan coughed to grab their attention and said, “But I also got soood stuff from my last world I've made a list of e have left, which is as follows”
Goldpearl of the Caribbean Sea
+7 West (IV Test Edition)
Chris Redfield's Lucky Bracelet
Valuable itey crystal x1
Rotten Eyeball (Condition: Bad) x1
Soul Crystals x2
Ndipaya Evolved Leech (Special)
Aberration Horcrux (Rare)
Volde
+7 Chieftain's Hobby
Mission itereen Leaf of the Sacred Oak
Genuine Leather Mask
Mwak's Eye
+7 Stark's Energy Spare Part (quality product)
Alien pulse gun component blueprint (disappear after use)
Unknown mysterious item: Rare precious ned 'Mwak's Eye' (increase e by 50 points) to Zi If Franklin was here, he would have priority over it, but… Now, it naturally belonged to Zi
Zi did not show any hesitation in receiving an equip to take Sheyan's equipment so easily, it could only mean that she no herself as aIt's like when you're chasing a girl, the girl would probably turn down gifts that were too expensive, but when she becaive her with open ary Spare Part (quality product)' dropped by Fate After soic barrier had been upgraded to lvl 5 Sanzi, being a suic barrier was attacked, the caster's MP would be reduced, so he didn't even have a lvl 1 ic barrier
The effect of Zi's Ndipaya set was pretty terrifying, with a surprisingly high defense Sheyan had long passed the key to unlock the hidden world – the Journal Log of Bernard Fokke – to Zi When she was by herself, she had entered the hidden world of Resident Evil It was a brand neorld for her
After a lot of painstaking effort hunting masked Ndipaya barbarians in the outskirt, she finally obtained the other piece of the Ndipaya set The final special effect of the set was “ignore the decrease in movement speed caused by the mask, and increase et, with the set now completed, Zi had the ability to te Ndipaya Marshland!
Now that she also had the 'titaniuy Spare Part', her durability had soared to an astonishi+ng height Sheyan estiic Barrier' was activated, her defence and survivability were not inferior to Reef at all!
Sheyan then threw the blueprint of the alien pulse gun component to Brother Black The blueprint will disappear after all the required materials were collected and placed on the blueprint It would allow Mogensha to occasionally fire powerful shots that were siensha was not shy in requesting for the grade crafting material 'Shadowdrill Clahich was naturally approved
After distributing all these, Sheyan then announced, “Sanzi's potential is obvious As the party leader, I propose to let him join our party as an official member If anyone has any objection, please raise it now”
The proposal was passed without any hassle There was nothing to hesitate about First, they do lack a su critical moments when they had to storm a fortification or stop the pursuit of the enemies, summoned creatures could be sacrificed in place of party members This alone ensured that suh status in a party A powerful summoner had the ability to turn a dire situation around
This fact was evident in Zi's previous action of expending all her party's resources on Yuan Zhan when they were in a desperate situation
Since Sanzi had joined the team, he naturally became the recipient of a few top quality summoner's equipments that they had collected but had not sold yet The items were:
Genuine Leather Mask
Voldemort's Allure (Dark)
+7 Chieftain's Hobby
Sanzi would be reborn as a formidable summoner as soon as he equipped these three powerful equip of this matter showed his careful attention to detail Sheyan no doubt had enough authority to just announce Sanzi's enrollive hi for the other ht harbour soht not voice them
That's because the value of those three equipnificant profit if they split the h they respected Sheyan, but it didn't ive him the equipments they obtained with their sweat and blood
Therefore, Sheyan first cothened personal ability, then shared the loot with everyone, and finally discussed the issue of Sanzi joining the party This way, things would happen naturally and there wouldn't be any conflict in the party
Chapter 968: The Seed of a Divine Artifact
The truth is, even theopinions, and even thecouple sometimes quarrels This is very normal; it would be weird if there was absolutely no conflict a deal if the conflicts were resolved in time before they could intensify
Sheyan had always attached great importance to these kind of issues, so he was very cautious in the selection of party reat attention to the relationshi+p between the members, so as to maintain a harest fortresses often cru reed with it
It et any benefit from the distribution of spoils this time However, Sheyan was not that worried He hadn't retrieved his rewards for co the bloody World main mission and the Golden Side Mission yet because he had recuperated in the return real that was suitable for Reef in those rewards If not, he could always give Reef the 'Unknown mysterious item: Rare precious metal' x6 worth 13 achievement points
All these analyses were purely from an objective standpoint
In actual fact, Reef and Sheyan were comrade-in-arms that could leave their lives in each other's hands Reef also felt heavily indebted to Sheyan and was full of admiration for Sheyan's ability Besides, the item Reef used when he awakened was provided by Sheyan More importantly, there was a 'Life-Link' between the two! This kind of ultimate skill was the most reliable symbol of friendshi+p Sheyan could betoo much for how he felt
Sanzi's jaw dropped to the floor when he saw the equiph they were currently in the real world so he could only see the holograh to shock him speechless
So far, apart from the 'Heart of the Ocean', the only equipment Sanzi had ever seen was a black equipment, and the blood of at least five people had been spilled for it! That incident gave Sanzi a clear idea of how valuable equipments were
Now, not only were there black equipold equip which he had never even heard of And it was a + 7 dark gold equipment to boot The equip
'Are all these…ood mood Unfortunately, they had to immediately face a very harsh reality
They were short on utility points
They were critically short on utility points!
Zi of course was eager to increase the level of her 'titaniuic Barrier' because she knew that Reef's priet of protection would no doubt be Sanzi from now on – not because Sanzi was Sheyan's brother, but because suets in a party by default
Therefore, Zi felt a certain sense of crisis Her 'Magic Barrier' was currently lvl 5, so she would need tens of thousands of utility points to enhance it to lvl 7
Meanwhile, Brother Black feared that his status within the party was threatened after he heard about Sheyan's partnershi+p with Aziz He also felt that his instantaneous dae was too low, and it was a weakness that he had to address
So he was obviously very excited when Sheyan presented hiun component blueprint' He was so excited that he kissed the blueprint passionately more than 10 tiirl in the world, Brother Black had never shown so ine how keen Brother Black was to turn the blueprint into a real object Looking at his sad, pleading eyes, Sheyan did not have the heart to tell hiensha need at least 100,000 utility points
Next, Reef told it to theht, “My servant is awake I need to pay about 60,000 utility points to repair his body”
Reef's servant was brought out froinally a fora, but was bitten by the ferocious ed to survive and had spun a cocoon in the nightmare realm He should be very powerful after he recovered, but the investment on him was a bottomless pit He constantly required utility points…
Sheyan smiled helplessly He turned towards Sanzi and said, “If you have any de He simply traded over 600 utility points to Sheyan, then showed them his balance of a bit more than 50 utility points He seemed embarrassed as he told them, “This is all I have left…”
Sheyan didn't knohether to laugh or cry But on second thought, when he was as new as Sanzi, he probably had even less Without any other choice, he could only grit his teeth and sell so over their inventory, the things that they could sell were as follows:
Valuable itey crystal x1
Rotten Eyeball (Condition: Bad) x1
Soul Crystals x2
Aberration Horcrux (Rare)
Pandora's Egg
As for the 'Unknown mysterious item: Rare precious metal' x6 worth 13 achievement points, he could only wait and see He desperately hoped that the ive hiood If not, he could only reluctantly sell the rare precious metals After all, Reef's matter could not be delayed, or they would risk his servant dying
Aoods, the Aberration Horcrux (Rare) should be the most popular Sheyan estimated that the it would net them at least 100,000 utility points If worse come to worst, he could only ask Brother Black to delay his plan After all, the blueprint required a lot of materials and was the ed glances Reef could not help siven us a lot of surprises But rest assured, not everything's bad news on our end either”
“Oh? What good news do you have for ers toyed with a lighter on the coffee table The skin on the back of her hand was as smooth and delicate as porcelain When she spoke, there was a slight fragrance and ware in thelint They were like the thorns on a rose, warning others to keep their distance
“When ere attacked, we naturally didn't just take it lying down After several successive atte captive From him, we found out why the Stockhol us
Sheyan also felt quite strange about this Although the enmity between him and the Stockholo Why would they want a fight to the death between the two parties like this? Therehe had overlooked
Brother Black took out a cigar and took a big puff, then revealed a cruel suy h theuess why they attacked us, boss”
“Could it be…the metal nut? ” asked Sheyan
Reef nodded and said, “Correct, it's because of the nut! Do you know the nickname of that nut?”
“I don't,” answered Sheyan with a hint of surprise
Brother Black snuffed out the cigar and said in a solemn tone, “They called it the seed of a divine artifact! This means that if we can achieve ered with the nut, the ultimate reward is a divine artifact! Of course, the chances of that happening aren't very high, but the probability exists”
“So they attacked us for the purpose of retrieving the nut that had fallen into my hands?” asked Sheyan
Reef cain of error of your answer is probably less than 03”
Sheyan finally sood news indeed”
Zi sneered and said, “Well aren't you easy to please The next piece of information will surprise you even more”
“Zi, that's a really bad habit Can you please tell o? Next time, I'll tell my story halfway too”
Zi s to the inforuy, we ed to find out the way to use the nut”
“Really? Hoe use it?” asked Sheyan
“The alternate way of using the nut in your hand requires at least a Reserve-duty General rank When you're ready to enter the next world, bring the nut with you and apply to go to the Terminator world – of course, the service isn't free And it's definitely not cheap,” said Zi
“damn it! More utility points! Why am I so unlucky? All kinds of trouble find their way to uish He added, “Now, I can only hope that the rewards for the bloody World and for the Golden Side Mission can help”
Mogensha's eyes suddenly lit up “Boss, if it doesn't work, you can always sell your mixes! People will trip over themselves to buy your mixes even if you price them at 10,000 utility points a bottle!”
“A lier profit off them and can only trade the that if I use them for profit, I'll break the balance of the reale Dzi Beads
Despite the fact that his idea of selling ensha still shtly that his white teeth were fully exposed, but with a hint of slyness in it
“Boss, Sanzi's passive ability to increase the drop rate is really crazy I think any teao So, if we plan carefully, we ht profit off this”
Reef's eyes suddenly lit up “Youmatch?”
Brother Black nodded “It seems like Sanzi did not have a happy tie with this Although they won't really die in the betting , including their underwear”
When Sanzi heard about the bettingfor excitean to pool all their twisted ideas to scheme ways to maximise their profits Their discussions included the way Sanzi would show his weakness, the way Mogensha would provoke the the order of appearance, and so on and so forth…
Zi sat down beside Sheyan with a glass of red wine If one were to look closely, one would find a hint of eht air of elegance
She was tall and graceful, and her sexy black stockings were on full display as she sat cross-legged next to Sheyan The pale, delicate skin of her legs peeked through the stockings, adding to her sexiness
Sheyan could clearly see the Zi's profile frole, so her shapely breasts were accurately outlined in his eyes They were not that large, but not that sht size to fit in one of his hands… Zi's body carried a faint, elegant sht be perfume, but he could not be sure The shtly restless
Zi did not notice that Sheyan was racefully picked up the glass of red wine and took a careful sip
“Now that you've broken through into a dual-attribute Growth Hunter having accu time, your base attributes are probably not inferior to some Awakeners, minus some details”
Sheyan smiled, but did not speak He was not a modest man, so he would not deny it, but he also felt that an adht cause Zi to be unhappy, because Zi seeh attelass of hile she said quietly, “Then I think you should be able to take a look at the string of beads I gave you”
“Beads?” Sheyan had forgotten all about the beads and only remembered after Zi reminded him
Before Zi joined Party Ace, Sheyan had heard that one of the reasons Zeus pursued her to no end was because Zi possessed a powerful secret related to MTs Then, in order to return the favour of saving her, she gave Sheyan a string of beads(TL: Refer to chapter 778)
Sheyan still re of beads fro Apart fro of beads could not be stored in his personal storage and he could not retrieve any information about them The realm also inforth and asked him to promote to a Growth-Hunter to satisfy the basic require the object
The beads were truly wrapped in a veil of s to take care of, Sheyan had long put the beads in the back of his mind He did not carry the beads with hi theradually getting hotter
Sheyan had a very strong will; he let the beads heat up in his hand without h that so smell came out of his hand did he finally listen to Zi and put the beads down
A clear burn mark was visible on Sheyan's palm as if it was burned by a red-hot iron Some vivid patterns could be seen in the burn les and squares
“Could the beads be Tibetan Dzi beads?”
(TL: enwikipediaorg/wiki/Dzi_bead )
Sheyan had a strong e aht it in his head Of all the jewellery in the world, only the Tibetan Dzi beads upholded the concept of Tibetan secrets and had the symbols of earth, water and fire, which represented Creation, on them
'○' – The circle, the cycle of the universe, the source of cosmic power The colour of the vast openness hite It syht emitted by the sun, the le, the human body's blood circulation systey The colour of human was crimson (the colour of the blood of all aniular relationshi+p between red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets) It symbolised the subtle life formed by the spirit, the body and the netic field) produced by all then The colour of the earth was yellow It symbolised the opportunities formed by water, fire and wind
Now that the beads were out of Sheyan's hand, their surface was black and s no different froht The patterns were no longer visible If it wasn't for the burn ht that it was all an illusion
When Sheyan asked Zi about it, she shook her head slightly and said, “I don't knohat this thing is either But although you can't fully understand the ered some reaction from it Keep it safe for now until the day you can fully activate it”
Sheyan wanted to ask Zi foraround the topic and in the end, stopped talking altogether
Time passed quickly With the support of the party, Sanzi no longer had to train with rats to familiarise himself with the command of sus and the likes, and had retired ex-professional special forcepartners for his summoned creatures
In addition, as a contestant who had not joined the night, Sanzi could still increase his base attributes through vigorous training, so he could not slack off It caused Sanzi a lot of suffering
Finally, it's the ti to what they had discussed, the first thing Sheyan did after entering the realrade his her positions would get better benefits and bonuses With this thought inhis inally had 183 achieveiant mutated ovums with Aziz, his achievement points now had reached Major (198/175) Even without the 13 achievement points from the 'Unknown h to raise his rank
Right after stepping into the realhtmare imprint sent a continuous stream of notifications to him to remind him to retrieve his rewards Sheyan siht to the honour area, before sitting down in his usual spot to deal with his business
He actually had to wait for nearly five minutes before a voice came from the other side It was neither the hoarse voice that had made contact with him before, nor the usual synthesised electronic voice Instead, it was the sharp, emotionless voice of a woe of a bitter,in her fifties in his mind when he heard the woman's voice He believed that the voice had the ability to turn the hardestwood into the limpest earthworm
“Growth Hunter No 1018, please submit the bloody Invitation Letters you've collected to confirm the completion of your mission ”
Sheyan was stunned He then said firmly, “I'm sorry, Ma'am, but I'm here to raise my rank”
The chilly voice said after a moment of hesitation, “Don't you have the bloody World ether”
'YouIf I submit the invitation letters noould happen to ht Sheyan
Sheyan thus said in a firain I'ative when I would like to submit the bloody Invitation Letters I don't wish to repeatfrom the other side It seemed that the contact had been interrupted While Sheyan was feeling puzzled, the cold voice appeared again “If you subet some bonus rewards”
“What are the bonus rewards?” asked Sheyan nonchalantly
“Honour, pride, dignity! And the highest praise frohed and said, “Not interested The promotion of ht now”
At this point, he had become really reluctant to have any further discussion with the old hag, so he simply abandoned the currentand went to queue up at the nextThis time, he successfully promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel without any fuss
Thea Lieutenant Colonel was that, on the premise that Sheyan was the leader of a set a free honorary dosage in each world
In addition to soes that he could choose from All the options Sheyan chose were those that were beneficial to the party, such as a 5 reduction in skill cooldown tie for all party members, and so on
After all that, Sheyan finally returned to his private rooan to check out the rewards for the Golden Side Mission
Chapter 970: The Real?
Currently, in front of Sheyan, a total of six bloody Invitation Letters floated out, issuing a scarlet light that painted the faces of the people around in a brutal red
The real appearance of the bloody Invitation Letters actually could not be seen in the bloody World They looked like pieces of papers soaked in thick blood One could not see as on thehtmare realm, they could be seen more clearly They looked like pal blood, with their surface e a dense red hot air
The source of Sheyan's six bloody Invitation Letters were as follows:
He had one hiot one froiant underground reproductive systeh Fate was a foruy, he actually needed a team around him to display his full power The reason was that Fate was a fragile e-type contestant, but his explosive power could only be displayed in close quarters So it was not unusual for him to have only one extra bloody Invitation Letter on him
Zi suddenly said in a serious tone while she was carefully observing the bloody Invitation Letters, “Why do I get the feeling that the contents of these bloody Invitation Letters are like torn pictures? I feel as if the pictures are hiding some sort of secret about the universe, and if you put theet a coathered around the invitation letters to study them carefully, and found that Zi's words were true It was fortunate that Sheyan was able to come up with six bloody Invitation Letters at the same time, so they could do a lot of cross comparisons to come to this conclusion
This was akin to the study of oracle bone inscriptions fro/wiki/Oracle_bone_script ) If there were only a few oracle-bone inscriptions on a piece of cow shoulder blade, even the best linguist would find it hard-pressed to interpret theof each oracle-bone inscription But if there were ments with hundreds of oracle bone inscriptions on the of the words would beco out the bloody Invitation Letters, Sheyan then selected the F-level Golden Side Mission he had — “Collect”
The group was currently in Sheyan's private room Suddenly, there was a very unusual situation!
The soft light fro them in darkness Only the six bloody Invitation Letters still had a faint glow of blood on them
[Golden Side Mission: “Collect” successfully completed]
[You have successfully collected six bloody Invitation Letters for your Noah Realress…Please wait patiently]
After waiting for less than 30 seconds, the nightently Sheyan knew that the Noah Real to communicate directly with hirowth far exceeded ive you 3 options to choose from]
[The first option: You can complete the mission in the normal way Certify 4 bloody Invitation Letters, and you will get the normal reward]
[The second option: Certify all the bloody Invitation Letters you have You will get an additional reward”]
[The third option: Submit all the bloody Invitation Letters you have to the real so will clear you of all the bloody Invitation Letters you have, and you will fail your bloody World main mission]
Sheyanthe third option He instantly made use of his Lieutenant Colonel military rank to ask:
“What do you raded by 2 ranks?”
The realave a short and concise answer:
[Your Golden Side Mission: “Collect” was judged to be F-level difficulty, so the reas only an F-level Golden Side Mission reward Upgrading your reward by 2 ranks raded to a D-level Golden Side Mission reward]
Because Sheyan had chosen to share the notifications within his party, Zi and the others could see them as well Sanzi exclai to steal a tile!”
Both Zi and Reef could speak Chinese, but they were quite confused about the high-end Chinese phrase “steal a tile” (TL: It's a ht about it and explained, “Put it this way We're like soldiers, and the Noah Real to should be like the co the main mission of the bloody World… Well, it should be soiiet should be turned over to the regiment coht to make an inventory of the spoils and not to take theiment commander head on He would have to take aus to hand the spoils over to him”
Reef and the others were quite calm when they heard what Sanzi had to say because to theer brother would of course be quite s On the other hand, Sheyan was really surprised with Sanzi, although he did not show any reaction on the surface He silently sighed that the life and death situations in the night at a speed beyond his iination
With her chin on her hand, Zi said, “Obviously, if we're not careful with our choice, we'll easily offend so to, or we her-level authority who could issue a bloody World main mission My advice is to choose the second option That way, neither side would be embarrassed”
Sheyan suddenly rerade his hest praise from the Empire” Sheyan instantly made his decision
“I've decided I choose the third option!”
As soon as Sheyan made the choice, the six bloody Invitation Letters in front flew into the wall beside hi of notifications:
[The evaluation of your Golden Side Mission is completed]
[Mission completion evaluation: Excellent (You have performed very well Hopefully, you can perform even better next time)]
[Mission explanation: This is the first time Noah Realm C has obtained a total of nine bloody Invitation Letters, and it's hard to tell whether it's good news or bad news for you]

Chapter 971: Ukiyo-e
There was no doubt that the focus of everyone there was drawn to the four unique rewards for the Golden Side Mission Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Sheyan would probably choose two out of these four options
[Golden Side Mission unique reward A: Coy injection of Aldanzo-KelukLulizi (Alkelu)]
[Description: The Alkelu high-energy injection is an extree Even a contestant whose internal potential is already exhausted can use it to ih the boundary of humans! It allows a contestant to instantly becoh any tests]

Sheyan did not hesitate to use one of his valuable choices on the Ukiyo-e
Most people would use the Ukiyo-e to summon a particular Boss class character such as Duicians who had a lot h DPS but eak in melee battles!
It's not iements wereinto Hogwarts to get Du one's way to Dumbledore was an insurmountable task
However, for Sheyan, he would definitely use the Ukiyo-e to summon Melody If he could summon Melody over and have her pin the relevant coordinates for dimensional teleportation, the time required to activate the inter-dimensional teleport formation could be reduced by at least 50! It could at least be done in the foreseeable future!
Zi and Sanzi were puzzled by Sheyan's decisiveness in selecting the Ukiyo-e Mogensha and Reef knehy, but of course they chose to keep quiet
Sanzi frowned and said, “Since you've chosen the Ukiyo-e, your next choice has to be option C: Amnesty You can use this to complete the main mission of the bloody World”
But Sheyan shook his head “The rewards for the bloody World main mission are probably base attribute points, achievement points, utility points, or a coood as the choices here”
“But if you can't coht be killed,” said Sanzi with his brows furrowed
“I won't I've already considered the possibility The only penalty for the bloody World is the death penalty, which will only apply if a participant didn't possess at least three bloody Invitation Letters within 30 days I've already fulfilled that condition on ht not even be punished for failing the main mission”
“Are you sure?” asked Zi with a frown
Sheyan smiled in response “I'choice was very hard toout on theret Fortunately, Reef caood idea “I heard that a Lieutenant Colonel can use the auction house function Why don't you go have a look and check out the s?”
The auction house could only be used by people who had reached a certain status An additional fee had to be paid after a successful transaction using the official auction house, but it also made transactions much faster and more convenient Sheyan carefully inspected the items one by one and found that in the auction house, the one with the highest price was actually the 'Coy Injection of Aldanzo-KelukLulizi'!
This iteh the barrier between a contestant and a Growth Hunter, and it was the most popular one Nuet their hands on one
The secondthe rewards was actually the unique reward C: Tearstone Solution – Plating! It seeold storyline equipled with the choices for a long tiive him a bit more ti as he chose the reward before entering the next world Sheyan decided to put thewhich required high-intensitysleep and collect all the inforement
The main mission of the bloody World had also disappeared by itself It seemed like Sheyan had escaped from that problem unscathed
At that moment, Sanzi's facialfor me”
Sheyan's pupil contracted “Oh, that fast? Seems like those people value you verynews of your resignation”
Reef and Mogensha were suddenly full of energy They looked like bandits who couldn't wait to reap some profit and divide the spoils They were truly rotten to the core, thought Sheyan Sheyan coughed twice, proreedy expressions on their faces, but they still kept whispering in secret The party was led by Sanzi to the square, where a large felloearing a yellow bee headgear strode up to the his hands in front of his chest, said arrogantly, “How dare you steal our ensha in a very annoying tone
Headgear ensha's voice But he ignored Mogensha and instead went towards Sanzi He tried to grab Sanzi while yelling at hi sis finds out about this, you'll get beaten up for sure! Even if it's not your fault!”
But Sheyan had already stepped forward to block headgear hed out loud, although the laugh was filled with a chilly intent
“Well, well Soeardru appeared before the was a picture depicting two sharp blades crossing each other, seely formed by blood that had dried! It exuded a sense of repression and terror
“KILL, KILL, KILL!!!”
Chapter 972: Soearabout hi muscles, which shi+ned as if they had been sear looked very life-like
The black flag he planted was called the duel flag, the kind that needed a rather high level of authority to exchange for – at least a rank of Reserve-duty Major General The guy was not that si theth so as to avoid unnecessary fighting
(TL: Major < lieutenant=”” colonel=””>< colonel=””>< colonel=”” coeneral=””>< general=””>
But Brother Black was totally unperturbed He very arrogantly strode over to headgear un on headgear man's head as he said, “hello, anyone there? Do you have muscles for a brain? Are you retarded? Sanzi is already our aining chip?”
After jabbing headgear un uy's forehead It was obvious that Mogensha wanted to huear man
Everyone's patience had a liear ed to, all the core members knew that Sanzi was a o of While it was necessary to exercise appropriate caution, too withdrawn an approach would siear ry his eyes alensha's face and spat out these words: “Do you have a death wish? Then pull up the flag I'll beat you up so good you won't be able to eat shi+t afterwards even if you want to”
Mogensha siear man's face, and with a flick of ash, said with scorn, “And what's in it for ht, no problem, but only if we bet 20,000 per round Do you dare?
At this tiear rin at Mogensha and said, “Deal Since you insist on giving ensha ined a realo back on his words After the bets were placed, Mogensha grabbed the flag The sound of ru drums could instantly be heard within the real and wrapped them inside it, before they disappeared in place
The settings of betting matches were a bit unique It was clear that the realm did not wish others to view the battle process That's because every person's abilities were the secrets which they relied on to survive Of course they could not be displayed so easily
Ti after the battle began, the two e He instantly threw out another 20,000 utility points and said through gritted teeth, “Do you have the balls for a rehed and shah to teach idiots like you a lesson If I teach you ear ed so hard they looked like they would burst He rushed forward and blocked Mogensha's path to stop Mogensha froensha's response was to raise the bet 40,000 per round, no bargaining! If headgear man was short on utility points, he could use his equip the battle fro up the trap As long as headgear man put one foot into the trap, he would sink deeper and deeper!
After the second battle concluded, headgear man came out with a twisted look on his face By now, he had been cheated of 60,000 utility points by Mogensha! Even for the backbone e suo, or he wouldn't be able to explain hier had received the news and had rushed over to the scene When they saw Sanzi there, they immediately understood the situation It was clear that Sanzi had found a stronger teaer party also realised that Sheyan's side had only five people including Sanzi They were thus extreive up on 60,000 utility points and Sanzi without even putting up a fight!
Since Mogensha held the initiative, he set the high price of 30,000 utility points per battle He also clearly stated that as long as the other side could win three battles in a row, they would get Sanzi together with 200,000 utility points!
Under the teer ensha They finally forensha's ability after three battles and defeated him in the fourth
And then…
And then, it was Zi's turn…
And that was the end for theic Barrier' by now Coupled with the insane properties of the Ndipaya set, her frontal defence was even higher than Reef with a shi+eld! Zi did not need any strategy at all She just stood there and exchanged bloith her opponent The opposing side siave up after two tries
The reason was sie contestant, was even hardier than Poison Stinger's MT! The two people who challenged her were the ones with the strongest attack in the party When they came back out after their defeat, they likened the experience to biting hard on a steel plate and had the force rebounded back on them Not only were they stunned, their teeth fell off too!
The reason for this was siap between the two sides was simply too wide
Under such an unfair condition, it was a basic requireher than Zi in order to stand a chance against her (for exaher than a Growth Hunter) To defeat her, her opponent probably needed to be two ranks higher Would the Poison Stinger party have anyone that's 2 ranks higher than Zi? One could not entirely eliminate the possibility, but the chances were so low that they were negligible
At this point, the party leader of the Poison Stinger party stepped out She was called Queen Bee, a pretty unique name True to her name, she had a queen bee's plump hips and a queen-like demeanor The woman stared at Zi for a while, then turned towards Sanzi
“If I proive htlyat the woman whom he used to be very infatuated with But before any idea could form in his mind, Sanzi immediately saw Sheyan fro peacefully
In the face of more than ten years of interdependent brotherhood, Queen Bee's char “NO”
Queen Bee was very decisive Although her party had lost ale of bankruptcy, she chose to leave without a word She knew that if they kept going, the party she had put so rate!
Queen Bee had a special ability She saith her own eyes, a dark golden glow on Sanzi's body A party that could easily fork out a piece of dark gold equipment to bribe people was definitely not soainst at the moment
With the extra 150,000 utility points scooped froer party, Party Ace finally had soh preparation, Sheyan tried to complete the main mission of the bloody World
Because he did leave the bloody World with enough invitation letters, the ed to have been completed, while at the same time, he had to submit the invitation letters to complete the mission, but Sheyan could not do so This led to a so-called BUG, but, of course, it was not enough to cause a blue screen crash restart However, Sheyan was still directly affected by the BUG, in the way that the systeed to have completed the relevant main mission, but he would not receive any reward It was a better result than previously expected
A quick calculation showed that Party Ace possessed 350,000 utility points and 30 potential points As always, oes quickly
Brother Black wished to co the various projects, so he was allocated 150,000 utility points
The upgrade of Zi's 'Magic Barrier' to lvl 7 had consumed 10,000 utility points and 25 potential points
And Reef was a servant to his servant He needed at least 80,000 utility points Since Sheyan had ample funds on hand, he couldn't deny Reef's request So that's another 100,000 utility points gone
In the end, Sheyan was left with less than 100,000 utility points Fortunately, Sanzi was used to living in poverty 1,000 utility points would have made him happy So, Sheyan didn't need to consider Sanzi's needs for the tile recharge of his gloves would already consu fund In addition, he needed to set aside utility points for the Ukiyo-e to su the 'metal nut' mission item to enter the Terarded to be in a state of poverty
Battle poas piled up withtrue
They split up to perforain went to the Hall of Merit in the upper level After beco a Lieutenant Colonel, he had a personal office of sorts there, so he never had to queue up again He sat down in his designated place, turned his wrist, and in the palm of his hand sat an extreinable Clues
What Sheyan had brought out was the ordinary-looking e secret
Sheyan placed the metal nut in the aluminum alloy drawer beside him and applied for analysis and appraisal with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel A buzzing sound arose in the room, like the sound made by a microwave oven Sheyan closed his eyes and waited patiently for the result
About five minutes after the buzz, the sound slowly subsided, and a series of reports iraphic projection in front of Sheyan
[analysis and appraisal fees: 2,000 utility points]
[The results of analysis and appraisal are as follows:-]
[Co out of the ordinary detected]
[Design concept: very co technology: very common]
[Special feature(s): not found]
Sheyan was naturally shocked when he saw the report There's no way he would believe that the metal nut was so ordinary This should not be the result!
“So somewhere”
Sheyan pondered for a while and applied for further appraisal, but this time the cost of appraisal rose to 4,000 utility points He accepted The results were the saive up and stubbornly continued to apply for appraisals After the appraisal fee rose to 12,000 utility points, Sheyan finally received this notification:
[Suspicious point: After a 1000x nification, the letters “SOS” could be seen inscribed on the seventh thread of the nut Who would have sent out such a hasty distress signal in such a way?]
Sheyan almost cursed out loud when he read the notification Who could have i inforht that it nified by a thousand times before such a bizzare clue could be found?
Sheyan was utterly confused by the ood at deduction, it was impossible to infer any useful infore that could only be seen after the nut was nified a thousand times The only clue he had was that the nut was from the the Terminator world It was an impossible task!
Fortunately, Sheyan received another notification:
[It has been confirinallypower of destiny, so you will be able to pay a certain amount of fee to enter the Terminator world to explore its mysteries You can apply for it when you are able to enter the next world]
Sheyan keyed-in his query: “I wish to enter the world with my party I would also like to know of any consequences fro the world I enter, or any relevant information”
The reply was:
[Individual intrusion will cost 5,000 utility points We have identified your party to be a sh-level Silver party, so a party intrusion will cost 15,000 utility points and 3 achieveet into the Terminator world, you will explore it the same way you would in a normal entry However, you will not randomly draw the Terminator world in the next three adventures after this one, nor can you enter the Terminator world via an intrusion in the meantime There is a certain cooldown period between two intrusion attempts]
Next, Sheyan learned that the next world he would enter was the world of Harry Potter… To be honest, that was the world he wason his hand Therefore, he chose the Terminator world without hesitation
After much discussion with his teammates, Sheyan was ready to choose his final Golden Side Mission reward He ruled out the rade a contestant to a Growth Hunter, and the low 20 chance eventually led Sheyan to give up on the Tearstone Solution, which was the most valuable item in the auction house He was never one to place his faith on luck
In the end, Sheyan chose the 'Puppet of Photography' because he was so methods The item would enrich the tactics he could use on offence The ro drawn after a failure in taking a photo, but Party Ace with their dual-MT configuration could turn this disadvantage into an advantage
As the saying goes, it ood job, but it is quite si a powerful storyline BOSS and Reef was having difficulty hanging on, Sheyan could take a failure of a photo on purpose and get the boss to attack him instead, so that Reef could take a breather In addition, Sheyan had a lot of passive abilities such as his diseases and 'Corrosynthesis' that could cause continuous daraph…
Not much happened after that The others felt tie feeling in his heart
As the first world he entered, the Ternificance in Sheyan's heart He thought back to the last time he entered that world, to his wariness and his panic Now, he was leading a whole party of unbelievably powerful people into that sa contrast between the past and the present filled hi a night process initiated…]
[World selected…]
[assi the world…]
[Judg the peaceful earth The peaceful lives of hue the destiny of mankind?]
[The war between machines and flesh, between survival and death!]
[Killing and protection, risk and wealth!]
[How many secrets are hidden behind the darkness?]
[Do not let your eyes be blinded by profit!]
[Set out for the sake of ht portal leading to the world, Sheyan did not lose consciousness He was only te in an old Ford sedan
Because the car was parked in a parking lot on a building, he could see the view of the city in the distance A few strands of black seles Nu ai such a scene, Sheyan iht that eles!
But at that htmare imprint, followed by a series of notifications in his ears:
[Sarah Connor has returned froeles International Airport]
[The T-800 Terh the ti: So far, seven contestants have triggered a Level II Regional Mission, causing Skynet to send multiple T-750 Terminators into the world ahead of schedule The dispatched T-800 Ter: The destruction of four T-750 Terminators has raised the alarm of Skynet, so from this point on, Skynet will send Sarah Connor's exact location to the T-800 every half an hour]
[Warning: The LAPD are heavily understaffed currently because of heavy losses sustained in previous fights Before reinforcements arrive, they will shrink their protection peri a few key areas In the meantime, the LAPD will be much less likely to send out police officers, and responses to eency situations will become unusually slow This will last for 12 hours]
[Please decide whether to save Sarah Connor or kill her Your choice will affect the direction of thethe notifications, Sheyan could not help feeling a bit eive me a choice like this at this kind of time? ” Sheyan frowned “And the rest of the contestants were obviously here ahead of us Could it be…”
On the other side of the city while Sheyan was spacing out…
Ougens was breathing heavily
His beard was stained with blood and saliva, and he leaned hard against the pillar in the parking lot, feeling the hardness and coldness behind his seeth aning together with the blood spilling out from the three wounds he sustained
The most serious injury was the one from a punch on his chest At least five radial cracks appeared on his sternus, causing pain with each breath he took A feeling of suffocation slowly assaulted hiunfire in the distance had never stopped, occasionally accompanied by the sound of explosion The e his assault without saying a word It orth ens' chest was caused by a casual punch fro bullets for the Terminator
Cold and heartless These traits of the T-800 were on full display
Ougens regretted taking part in this ly superior to the onists, and it was now even inal plot But in contrast, the contestants who chose to guard the e in both quantity and quality compared with the contestants who chose to protect the T-800
8 to 3
That was Ougens' estimate 8 enemies, 3 allies He couldn't even confirm whether this was the final number, because there were still the possibilities of hidden ene of that person
Chapter 974: Web
The person Ougens thought of was the onefroled and fought, whatever they did, it all seeens felt like froiant web had entrapped hiles and resistance did naught but help increase the strength of the web!
When Ougens stepped foot in this world, he received a main mission which had two branches he could choose from
Branch A was to protect Kyle Reese and Sarah Connor
Branch B was to join the Terminator's side and help the Terminator complete the assassination However, the Terminator would attack all huoing to follow the norression and protect the hero and heroine He would just follow the script and play it safe
But he could never had i at a irl would suddenly drop a beer on thethe strippers at the , so when the frozen beer spilled on his groin, it made him bend down by reflex As a result, the sure-hit bullet flew past him and burst the head of a hippie with a mohawk haircut behind him
The hippie turned out to be the nephew of the eles, and the second-in-line to inherit the oligarch Rockefeller consortium The first-in-line was already confirmed to have leukeens' situation, they should probably just hang the they would surely receive fro deal for a contestant It justthe side which protected the hero and heroine now Adisaster to that side
Therefore, Organs had no choice but to choose Branch B At that ti He just wanted to co manipulated because there were si around him
For some reason, the nuh But every ti strange would always happen A car alar would suddenly bark for no reason, or their weapons would suddenly malfunction
And the preys would escape
It was at that point that Ougens started to feel like he had fallen into a giant, sticky web It was as if all his actions, including his successes and failures, were being controlled
What's ens found that athered on the Terminator's side did not join voluntarily There were always so Branch A
There was definitely a round
What was his purpose for setting things up like this?
Sheyan folded his hands to his chest and let the wind caress his hair as he looked down at the vast city of Los Angeles For some reason, fro, as if an invisible eye atching him
Brother Black stretched a little and looked excitedly at the black sht into the sky like pillars He could not help but exclai a full-scale invasion of Los Angeles? The faunpowder sure makes me excited
Meanwhile, Sanzi turned towards Sheyan ti a Terminator to see if I can control it”
“Huh??” At that instant, Zi abruptly turned towards the direction of a storeroo flash of blue electrical current there,noise
The blue electrical current, thick as a bucket, twisted together in the air like a python It looked horrible and extremely weird Sheyan was not unfa of a ti the imminent arrival of a Terminator
Zi suddenly stretched out her hand towards a car not far away The car immediately coiant invisible hand Screws, steel plates and other pieces burst out from the car and flew everywhere
Zi stretched out her other hand with the flattened pal outwards The 'Force Wall' collided with the car, sending the newly-for into the time displacement sphere
Several strands of thick blue electrical currents hadoff a dazzling glare that made it hard for theht, large strands of blue currents splashed out as if the curtain of light was a pool of water The steel car was then completely devoured by the corrosive power of space and tirabbed the edge of the unstable ti as niave the weight on the ground Clear cracks would forround had been hit hard by a sledgehammer
From the looks of it, these Terminators should be T-750 models In addition to the dull, indifferent plastic expressions on their faces, their bodies exuded an air of strength and agility Their processors see”at an astonishi+ng speed The whole building seemed to tremble with each step they took
Zi released another 'Force Wall' without panic The two foreered back a few steps as if they had hit a hard wall So in a few cracks in their heads The others Terhtest and continued to dash forward single- lot as they easily rammed away several cars in their paths
Sheyan frowned and sighed “This…doesn't seem to be the Terminator world in my memory at all
If the T-750 Sheyan met in his first world was as ferocious as those in front of him, Sheyan would definitely have died a very horrible death
At this tiiant snake that was at least 10It looked like an Anaconda froed its body to protect Mogensha, Zi and Sheyan in theshi+eld which was evidently very expensive as well He was obviously an MT, so he needed no protection
Sheyan looked at Sanzi and smiled “I can't believe the little boy who used to run to rown up so much he could protect me now But seriously, I don't actually need your protection”
After saying that, Sheyan stepped out of the circle formed by the snake Without Sheyan inside, the snake barrier could be forhter for more protection
Sanzi was stunned “But these robots look really strong! Each of the as the Boss I ar and sun and took ai to Sheyan You have nothing to worry about”
At this time, Sheyan had walked to the side of Reef and stood next to hiether side-by-side like this for a long ti towards the excitement in their hearts
Two Terminators reached the out with shi+eld and sent one of the Sheyan reached out with his hands and blocked a punch from the other Terminator with his palm The force from the punch pushed hirab the Terminator's arms
He yanked hard on the arms Electric currents instantly burst out of the Terminator's shoulder joints, a testament to the severity of the injuries Sheyan increased the force he used and twisted the arle The arms instantly broke off Deadly pale artificial muscles and shi+ny internal parts could be seen in the cross-sections It seemed that the Terminator was fresh out of factory
When the Tered, they hastened their steps, but a casual 'Force Wall' froh to push theloves started rotating at high speed The power indicator lights were fully turned on The Terminator was lifted up and thrown into the air
'Tactical Throw'!
But with the target location high up in the air!
Anyone as thrown into the air would not be able to apply force to their surroundings and thus, would not be able to dodge attacks It was the worst time to be attacked That's why, in combat martial arts, rarely do we see round, except in movies – but those moves in the movies were often performed for aesthetic purposes and should not be taken seriously
Chapter 975: Grabbed by the Throat
The Terminator was helplessly thrown into the air and was instantly turned into their punching bag!
Brother Black puffed on his cigar while he shot with one hand He actions seeolden AK hit the same spot without fail The spot that was hit e to push the bullets out A large amount of shattered wires and mechanical parts fell out from the hole
At the same time, Zi sent a torrent of invisible shockwaves to the Terer By the time the Terminator fell back down, it was already covered in wounds Occasionally, a bluish-white electrical currentwould be emitted from its neck When it e noise that was similar to the sound metal makes when it has been stretched to the limit and is about to break
Sanzi seemed worried about Sheyan's safety and was about to summon more creatures, but Zi stopped hi this, she raised her slender and beautiful forefinger and rapidly sketched a mysterious symbol in the air Anyone who saw that symbol would instinctively associate it with the microscopic world, as well as nuclear fission chain reactions!
Next, the sye warhammer, which swept across the air and slammed into the steel body of the Terensha, the Terminator burst into a loud explosion!
The air was soon full of choking smoke and violent flaround The Ter after its synthetic skin was torn, rolled towards theain when it hit the wall That surprised Sheyan He only knew the body of the T-800 had self-destructing capabilities He didn't expect that the T-750 y
The Terminators did not pose much trouble However, the defensive qualities shown by Sanzi's suht, two Terh to the back, but with a flick of its tail, the Anaconda sent one of theensha, but he ended up being bitten by the Anaconda and was thrown over 10 er a threat to Sheyan and his party All theyeles Reef pushed a T-750 aith his shi+eld and followed up with a clahile it was in the air The claw tore off one of its thighs Even so, the Terminator remained as ferocious as a trapped feral beast after it landed, continuing to attack even if it had to crawl to do so
Mogensha whistled a tune as he walked over Raising his gun caler until the Ter Then, he casually kicked the broken body off the rooftop The Ter the fall
Sanzi's wish to control a T-750 could not be fulfilled because the boerous
The battlefield on the rooftop parking lot was filled with unquenched fire, as well as the black smoke from oil and plastic combustion These black smoke interspersed in the air but did not dissipate After the end of the battle, the black smoke transformed into lines of tiny words

Zi walked to Sheyan's side “Maybe you're just being overcautious?”
“No, I'm not First of all, the Stockhol to enter the Terminator world sometime in the near future, and they knoould enter as an intruder”
