Several assassins were just at the apprentice level, levels 8 and 9-
It was clear that the young man in front of them had stacked all his resources
on himself, a tactic employed by many experienced players.
They found it hard to buy Rare level Remnantsouls, but acquiring Heritage
Stones of the same level was somewhat easier.
The young man in the gray coat had inherited the rare profession ‘Shadow Assassin’. While several cannon fodder soldier types attracted attention, he appeared at Duo Lai’s side, stabbing down with his short blade.
“Puff—”
Duo Lai blocked it, but not completely.
Its arm was cut. No fresh blood flowed out, but a clearly visible gray-blue color
was spreading around the wound.
The gray-coated young man in the distance began to laugh heartily as his attack succeeded.
“This is a deadly poison that takes effect upon contact with blood, and it seems
that I’m the one who will have the last laugh…
His laughter halted abruptly.
The gray-blue color spreading on Duo Lai’s arm quickly receded, and it licked
its lips, “The taste is not bad-”
Like a big shot making a dismissive comment about a small fry.
But Duo Lai was a sincere Slime. Everything it said came from its heart…as well
as its master’s orders.
“The gray coat on the other side has a high level, and his speed is actually higher than Duo Lai’s. But he is completely intimidated by Duo Lai.”
“DUO Lai’s signature skill, Duo Lai’s Palm, is unlikely to hit this enemy. Since that’s the case… let’s use the finger gun!”
This long-range attack skill was designed by Mu Yuan for Duo Lai, modeling it after the Dead Bone ‘Finger Bone Machine Gun’.
With Duo Lai’s Condensing Liquid Shaping, Energy Compression bursting technique, ability to Harden, Sharpen, and the fact that constantly shedding part of its body had little impact on it, this unique attack was created.
So, Duo Lai stretched out its hand, with its right palm instantly transforming into a Gatling gun barrel, showering out endless firepower.
The ground in the distance erupted, blasting countless mounds of soil. One tree after another was shattered under the torrent of gunfire. Even though the youth quickly dodged, he was still hit by many Hardened liquids, his body shaking and bouncing about like a fish out of water. His gray coat was torn apart, revealing very strong armor underneath, but even that was cracked, and blood gushed out of some parts of his body that weren’t protected by the
armor.
His injuries were not deadly, but…
There was a gray color constantly spreading from his wound!
It was the large amount of poison stored in the Dimensional Pocket that still remained after being slightly skimmed off by the middle man, returned to him.
Duo Lai was somewhat unwilling.
The man in the gray coat widened his eyes.
“You… you’re not part of the capture team!” Because in situations where the capture team was overwhelmingly powerful, they would at least arrest the
enemy alive.
He stared out with eyes full of unwillingness, and confusion.
He couldn’t understand it!
The emotionless Duo Lai sent the man in the gray coat on his way.
The Battle Falcon perched on a tree branch in the distance, and with shared
vision, Mu Yuan sighed softly:
“Because, your existence was too dangerous.
After Duo Lai fired dozens more finger guns to confirm the death of the man in the gray coat, Mu Yuan finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
He wiped the sweat off his forehead, “Too thrilling, this world is too
dangerous.”
As usual, Duo Lai began to gather the spoils of war.
But sure enough, the man in the gray coat was a pauper. His armor was almost destroyed. His pair of short blades and several flying knifes were just common items, worth some money but not much.
Duo Lai only found over a thousand grams of Soul Sand and a blood-stained scroll on him.
“Snake God… Blood Book?”
“Is this something of the Twilight Cult? A token?
‘With the…sacrifice of…pure blood, the blood of the Snake God can be obtained.’
■.. just need…to make the sacrifice…, and you can break through human limitations.’
« Through the XX method, snake man soldiers can be transformed.
“When twilight falls forever, the eyes overlooking the world will open, and the shadow of the god will envelop the world.”
The blood-written words above were shocking. Mu Yuan frowned, “This stuff is
too dirty, better burn it.”
“Gurgle-!”
Captain Duo Lai accepted the command.
Mu Yuan looked through the eyes of the Battle Falcon, gazing towards the depths of the border zone.
This place was indeed vastly different from the previous Longhu Mountain. There were still some modern traces on the periphery, and the further inside it was, the more ancient it seemed, with mountains stretching across and gigantic trees soaring to the sky. The white mist drifted about, obscuring the scenery further away.
“The actual border zone’ area is likely much larger than the previous district.”
“And it’s said that the inner part of the border zone houses many newly bom treasures.”
But what does that have to do with him, a greenhand?
Mu Yuan wasn’t very desirous. After briefly handling the scene, he let Duo Lai return home.
Half a day later, taking advantage of a delivery gap, he picked up Duo Lai who had transformed into a short-haired cat and swiftly returned home to continue his tireless struggle.
The next day,
“Recently, 12 members of the Twilight Cult gang active in Baijiang’s border zone have been killed and arrested. These people are all international fugitives, who once committed….”
Mu Yuan stroked his chin, “No wonder that gray-clad guard headed straight there that day. Good thing I moved quickly.”
“With this, Baijiang City should be more peaceful and stable, right? I also contributed.”
Mu Yuan felt a bit relieved and turned his gaze to his personal territory in the Eternal World.
Today was the 22nd day of logging in.
He had spent a significant amount of Soul Sand to send the newly acquired remnantsoul from his online purchase into the Eternal World.
“This is the last batch of remnantsouls. The income from the next few days of exploration can’t be spent on buying more. A small portion will be used to purchase war preparation materials, and the majority will be saved for war expenditure.”
There were always two or three Soul Crystals left in his territory just in case.
But when facing a monster siege, such a tiny amount of Soul Crystal reserves was nowhere near enough to be reassuring.
The Arrow Tower, Mage Tower, and the Thunder Magnetic Coil Tower that was about to be built all consumed a large amount of Soul Sand. The trump card of the Dead Bone, the ‘Legion of Death,’ also required Soul Crystals.
This was probably the trouble of having too many trump cards. If he was like other new lords and only had a few towers in his territory, he wouldn’t have to worry about the consumption problem.
Mu Yuan walked out from the Mage Tower and came before a group of lined-up skeleton soldiers.
He walked from the left to the right, gently stroking the forehead of the skeleton soldiers. The next moment, beams of Evolutionary Miracle Light one after another blossomed, enveloping the figures of the skeleton soldiers.
In a moment, the skeleton soldiers completed their evolution one after another, revealing the figures of more stalwart and well-equipped skeleton warriors.
Mu Yuan wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead. Evolution was indeed a laborious task.
But seeing the imposing and unmatched group of skeleton warriors standing in formation, he felt that all the hard work was worthwhile.
He opened the panel.
“Skeleton Series: 251 units”
“Including: Skeleton Mortician, Skeleton General, Skeleton Warriorx9o, Skeleton Soldier*5O”
The skeleton warriors capable of long-range throwing would be the backbone of the city defense in a few days.
■’For the other types of soldiers, there are still too slimes, but now with 30 Silver Slimes. Their cloning leap ability could easily disrupt the enemy’s formation.”
“to sentries, all archers have evolved to Rare Rank. However, when I saw some for sale online, I couldn’t resist purchasing a few more remnantsouls.”
Now, there are 15 sentries and archers, and they’ve accumulated 10.3 Evolution Points. He would be able to evolve Lu Liu and Seventeen again before the trial arrives.
“The Wandering Spirit Series has 90, including 2 Resentful Spirits, and 27 ghosts.”
-Also, there are 20 Battle Falcons whose numbers keep fluctuating due to occasional losses, including 7 Hurricane War Hawks.”
Over a hundred Rare rank soldiers.. This is his strength!
