Chapter 453: 《A Chinese Ghost Story》: Backstab

【Congratulations to players 【Orochimaru】, 【Sakazuki】, 【Borsalino】, 【Smoker】, 【Garp】... for successfully hunting the 【Tier 2】 Dark Gold-level game map (A Chinese Ghost Story · Scholar)!】

【Obtained purchase rights for 【A Chinese Ghost Story Series】 Dark Gold-level items!】

【Obtained two million Reward Points, obtained one million experience...】

【Obtained Dark Gold-level title 【Ghost Hunter】. Equipping this title increases the growth potential of ghost-type pets by 5, allows for expansion of pet slots, and permits the additional contract of one ghost-type pet.】

Following several game announcements, the Samsara Game Space suddenly boiled over.

Before any discussion could even begin, the Navy Alliance suddenly issued an announcement.

"In order to maintain the harmony and safety of the Samsara Game, the Navy Alliance hereby issues a bounty for player 【Orochimaru】..."

Upon seeing this announcement, all players revealed subtle expressions.

"The Navy Alliance is actually putting a bounty on Orochimaru? Could there be conflicts even between two different worlds?"

"Look at the announcement; it's obvious that Orochimaru and the Navy Alliance Admirals broke through the Dark Gold-level map together, and I'm afraid they had a conflict due to an uneven split of the spoils at the end!"

"There's a good show to watch. The Fire Empire of the Ninja World was already a target for everyone, and now that they've been issued a bounty by the Navy Alliance, Orochimaru is likely to become a lone wolf."

"Who says that? Orochimaru is, at the very least, the strongest player; who could possibly conquer the Fire Empire?"

"I'm still more concerned about the Dark Gold-level game items..."

The Reincarnation Game Players discussed it fervently, their focus shifting to the conflict between the strongest player and the strongest faction.

Marine Headquarters, conference room.

Sengoku's expression was grim as he looked at the Marine Admirals sitting on both sides, his voice hoarse as he said: "Tell me the sequence of events, in meticulous detail."

Breaking through the Dark Gold-level map first should have been a victory banquet, but at the very last moment, the despicable and shameless Orochimaru launched a sneak attack, leading to the martyrdom of two Admirals, Smoker and Akainu.

"At first, everything progressed very smoothly."

Borsalino shed his lazy demeanor and said with a serious expression: "After unsealing 【Yan Chixia】, this Xiake Daoren possessed Dark Gold-level combat power comparable to the Shuyao Laomu, breaking through the illusions of the Demon-Clothed Scholar all the way, and finally eliminating the Shuyao Laomu."

The special world the Navy Alliance squad entered was the memory illusion of the 【Demon-Clothed Scholar】.

The river of fate rioted, causing the plot of the "A Chinese Ghost Story" world to run wild.

Devouring the thousand-year-old demon heart of the Shuyao Laomu, which caused the scholar to transform into the 【Demon-Clothed Scholar】, was one of those tributaries of fate.

And the final boss, the Shuyao Laomu, wanted to break through to 【Tier 2】, so it constantly devoured monsters from other fate tributaries to strengthen itself. Master Ning was half-sealed by a Taoshu branch of the Shuyao Laomu, hoping to use the hands of the Navy Alliance squad to break the seal and kill the Shuyao Laomu in return.

But they didn't expect to be killed by them in return, and they even unsealed Yan Chixia, who was imprisoned in the iron cell.

"There is actually such a thing?"

Sengoku's expression was solemn; he hadn't expected the Dark Gold map of the new season to be this complex.

River of fate, tributaries, plot runaway.

"The plot, I'm afraid, refers to the original developmental process of the river of fate..."

After becoming a Reincarnation Game Player, it wasn't as if Sengoku hadn't come into contact with information in this regard.

As far as he knew, the original fate of the Pirate World seemed to be the journey of the Caomao Lufei crew overturning the world.

"So, is that why our world is called the Pirate World?"

Listening to Borsalino's explanation, Sengoku was shocked internally and thought maliciously: "If this is the case, is it possible for the Marine Headquarters, the World Government, and the New World Four Emperors groups of the Pirate World to appear as fate tributaries and devour our world?"

Since the Shuyao Laomu could devour the Demon-Clothed Scholar on a fate tributary, couldn't such a situation occur in the Pirate World?

However, upon second thought, the other fate tributaries didn't have the Samsara Game. The current strength of the Marine Headquarters was dozens of times greater than before, so there was no need to worry about being attacked by fate tributaries.

Suppressing his complex thoughts, he continued to look at Borsalino, signaling him to continue.

Borsalino took a breath and said: "After the Shuyao Laomu died, Yan Chixia also left. Before we could even react, Orochimaru quietly made a move and killed Admiral Akainu."

"Admiral Akainu's Magma Demon energy was exhausted, and he was unable to resist, being killed instantly by the sneak attack." "Then there was Admiral Smoker, who had also consumed a large amount of stamina while hunting the Shuyao Laomu. We all besieged Orochimaru together, but we couldn't stop Orochimaru's poisonous hand."

Orochimaru could actually fight four Admirals alone? Seeing Sengoku's confusion, Kizaru explained regretfully: "Although Orochimaru's strength is high, he can only reach the level of two Admirals working together at most."

"It's just that Orochimaru is too cunning!"

Kizaru sighed: "During the battle, Akainu and Smoker didn't hold back, and all the potions carried in their inventory slots were completely exhausted."

"Orochimaru, however, quietly reserved his strength until the very end, when he secretly drank a potion to recover his state before launching the attack."

After the Navy Alliance squad signed the Team Contract, they would be killed by the power of the contract if they violated it.

It was precisely because of this that none of the four had any guard against Orochimaru.

Sengoku remained confused and asked: "Could Orochimaru possibly defy the backlash of the contract's power?"

The rules of the Samsara Game are absolutely impossible to violate; this is an iron law.

Even if it were Orochimaru, he wouldn't have this ability, right?

Kizaru shook his head and said: "The moment Orochimaru launched the sneak attack on Akainu and tore up the contract, he was killed by the contract."

"However, when this guy died, he left a snake egg on the spot."

"Then he consumed a Resurrection Coin, exempted himself from the Yellow Springs Mission, and resurrected directly. Finally, using the coordinates of the snake egg, he teleported straight back to the Shuyao Laomu's map."

Sneak attack, tearing up the contract, resurrection, teleportation...

To be able to connect so smoothly.

I'm afraid that when Orochimaru signed the Team Contract, he had already begun planning to kill the Admirals of the Navy Alliance and monopolize the Dark Gold-level boss's game items.

Veins bulged on Sengoku's forehead, his eyes ached faintly, and he kept rubbing his brow.

Staff Officer Tsuru's expression was ugly, and she sighed: "It was my judgment that was wrong; I am willing to bear all the consequences."

Cooperating with Orochimaru was an idea she had proposed first.

In fact, the judgment wasn't wrong...

Orochimaru of the Fire Empire was like a rat crossing the street in the Ninja World, and he would be attacked by other factions together if he were the least bit careless.

Under these circumstances, Orochimaru wouldn't dare to offend any new factions; otherwise, the vast Fire Empire would be wiped out by a joint effort.

It was just unexpected that Orochimaru was too cold-blooded.

From beginning to end,

He did not care at all whether the Fire Empire would be destroyed.

Staff Officer Tsuru had conducted detailed intelligence gathering on Orochimaru, and the other party had a precedent of abandoning the Sound Ninja Village.

It was just that the Sound Ninja Village was very weak and its assets were meager, a world of difference from the Fire Empire, which was a mid-level power when looking at the entire Samsara Game.

Even though she knew that Orochimaru had once abandoned the Sound Ninja Village, she did not expect that he could abandon the Fire Empire so decisively.

"Cold-blooded, sinister, cunning, powerful..."

Sengoku rubbed his temples to alleviate his headache and muttered to himself, "No wonder he was able to destroy Konoha and stir up the winds and clouds of the ninja world; this time, the Navy Alliance misjudged and underestimated Orochimaru."

"Send letters to the powers of the ninja world to join forces and destroy the Fire Empire!"

The Spear of Justice must not be tarnished.

Even if it is Orochimaru, if he dares to touch the bottom line of justice, he must pay the price.
