Mo Ling

Lin An..? What's wrong?

In the Necromantic Space, Mo Ling somewhat unexpectedly saw Lin An's initiative message.

Lin An rarely contacts them proactively; after getting along for too long, Mo Ling almost instantly sensed that his tone was off.

Like Mo Ling, on the other end of the communication, Lin An also heard the fatigue in Mo Ling's voice.

Clearly, Mo Ling's situation there is not good, far from the ease he previously described.

But..

"Nothing, have you shaken off those few teams yet?"

Lin An asked softly, intending to first hear Mo Ling's situation.

After repeated consideration, he helplessly realized the only usable method now is to have Mo Ling's group find people. He noticed that among the participating teams, several names seemed familiar.

As long as we contact those guys, they naturally have ways to help us from outside.

Of course, there is another method, but the second method carries too much risk.

"Shaken off..."

"Mm, soon. Our situation is still fine; you know, my ability is special, even a Space Seal can't stop me."

"Besides, we're not far from the Eternal Summit; once we get there, those people won't dare to chase us."

Feigning ease, Mo Ling's voice softened unusually, indicating Lin An need not worry.

Given her intelligence, she naturally guessed Lin An might have run into trouble, so she no longer nags him as before.

After a pause, Mo Ling softly asked back.

"Lin An, do you have something you need us to do?"

Hearing Mo Ling's somewhat gentle tone, Lin An for a moment felt unaccustomed; just as Mo Ling guessed he had something, he also guessed what Mo Ling had figured out.

Lin An silently sighed, then spoke without further preamble.

"I really have run into some trouble."

"I need you to find the Giant Demon Clan or the Golden Bull Alliance. Anyway, anyone I helped in the previous mission will do. Specifically, you can ask Gao Tian and them."

"After finding them, you have them deliver the message in their own way. I need them to place bets for me outside. The number is roughly around 300 points."

"Priority is to find Gulman of the Giant Demon Clan, then the Golden Bull..."

Speaking rapidly, Lin An carefully instructed Mo Ling on what to do. Though theoretically these people should help him—after all, Lin An also saved their lives—he believes that given his performance in the last mission, they will have some confidence in him upon learning he's here. But 300 points is not a small number; in his judgment, only the Giant Demon and Golden Bull could possibly produce that amount.

Realizing Lin An needs help, the whole team members all startled, then hurriedly gathered around Mo Ling to listen closely.

"Captain Lin!? Have you run out of potions!?"

"I still have some; can we trade here!? If not, I'll have everyone transfer the points you gave me!"

Mistaking Lin An for having used up his potions and being wounded, Zhang Tie's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly searched the Starlight Function for trading options.

Gao Tian and Jiang Haochen, reacting fastest, exchanged a glance and then suddenly looked toward Ka Lian.

"Captain Lin (Lin An) needs outside betting? That seems to require exchanging newly added Props? What enemy could push Captain Lin to this point?"

"Brother Lin! If we contact the outside, we can have Ka Lian do it! The Creator Alliance also has means to contact the outside! Her status is high; perhaps Mo Ling hasn't had time to tell you much, but she is actually the true successor of the First Generation Creator Alliance!"

As the words fell, Ka Lian, who had been eavesdropping nearby, shuddered; she instinctively wanted to say something, but facing everyone's fierce gazes, she could only swallow it back.

On the communication end, Lin An raised his eyebrows; he had also considered contacting Qing Kai, but due to identity issues and Qing Kai being too poor, he hadn't thought of it.

However, having Ka Lian contact outside would save a lot of effort. In his impression, Ka Lian's father is indeed a high-level Creator.

"Is it Ka Lian? If you can get your people to produce 300 points outside, I'll let you go."

"Even in this Starlight Battle, I can help you get a decent ranking. You should see we have this strength. Top 1000! If you can get your backers to produce 300 points, I'll get you into the top thousand!"

Lin An generously gave his promise.

It would naturally be best if Ka Lian could help him; sending Mo Ling's group to find the Giant Demon Clan, he also lacks confidence. First, he doesn't even know where the Giant Demon Clan's team is; second, being hunted by Heaven Walkers, they constantly move on the battlefield, making the risk too great.

Hearing Lin An's promise, Ka Lian's heart jolted; although she thinks Lin An's "top 1000" is unrealistic, she cannot deny feeling moved.

After being captured by Mo Ling, although she doesn't know how strong Lin An really is, just this little girl's strength could probably charge into the top thousand!

But..

As if thinking of something, Ka Lian then gave a wry smile and difficulty spoke:

"Lin An.. your honor. To be honest, I really want to help you; helping you is also helping myself, and I also believe what you say."

"But I.. I.. the Alliance.."

Seeing everyone growing impatient, mistaking her for stalling, Ka Lian, not knowing what to say, took a deep breath and forced out the truth.

"The Alliance probably no longer exists!"

"You might not know, the Alliance encountered an intelligence crisis that seems out of control! According to my current speculation, we may have been abandoned! No one will help us!"

After saying that, Ka Lian's eyes filled with sorrow, and she couldn't help but give a bitter laugh.

She actually discovered this long ago, but just never dared to speak.

In her agreement with her father and clansmen, if the front line could hold, they would definitely transmit news via betting after the match began, urging her to persevere and strive for ranking!

But so far, aside from Qing Kai inexplicably pressing her fifty points, the Alliance has shown no response.

Clearly, the external Alliance has undergone huge changes; even whether her father is still alive is unknown.

After the words fell, before everyone could react, astonishment and Ka Lian's message collided.

Upon hearing this, Lin An's face slightly changed; only now did he suddenly understand why his Faith Power had malfunctioned earlier!

It's the Creator Alliance!

Damn it! The Creator Alliance must have sent people to Earth! And launched an attack!
