Chapter 474: Azure Heaven Hegemon Blood
Bai Cangshu hung four brand-new Scavenger Scarlet Drop Cards prominently in his stall and set them to accept offers.
If there was no suitable price, he would not necessarily trade these cards away; for him, in his 【Omen of the Evil God: Third Order】 state, these Scavenger Scarlet Drop Cards were a stable source of Attribute Points.
He could activate them at any time when needed.
The crowd gathered around was still shaken by the Rare appearance of that group from 【Clear Sky】 just moments ago, and as they kept passing on the news, for a moment, no one actually came forward to make an offer.
Instead, the gentle woman wearing white sacrificial robes, who had not left with the professor, came to the stall and looked at Bai Cangshu with a complex expression.
"Tao Baibai, could you please tell me the final outcome of Roland?"
Luo Man had curved brows and eyes, fair skin, and while her Avatar could not be considered overly beautiful, she possessed a temperament that made people feel comfortable.
Even her voice was almost devoid of any hostility.
Reincarnators, because they possess power that transcends ordinary people and can act recklessly in mission worlds, often unconsciously carry a strong aura; the more powerful the Reincarnator, the more this is true.
Yet this woman was completely different; she seemed like someone who had dissolved all hostility, and although she did not like Tao Baibai, she would not resent him without cause.
Luo Man knew very well that if Roland had truly been killed by Tao Baibai, or if Tao Baibai had plotted his death, then the attitude of Boss Cao Qi would absolutely not be what it was now.
No matter how absurd or careless Cao Qi appeared to be, she actually knew very well that Cao Qi's feelings for Roland were no less than her own; the other party's previous performance undoubtedly proved that Tao Baibai was not the reason for Roland's death.
Luo Man had previously been strictly forbidden from searching for related worlds or contacting related Reincarnators, but this time, Adam had intentionally let her stay, and she knew this meant she was now permitted to know the truth of Roland's death.
Bai Cangshu glanced at the woman; she radiated an aura that was completely incompatible with his own.
Under normal circumstances, Bai Cangshu would probably only think of the other party as a weakling, but having gone through so many missions, he had already learned from too many Reincarnators what kind of organization 【Clear Sky】 was.
It was absolutely elite-oriented, with every official member possessing immense strength and very special enhancements.
Luo Man extended her right hand toward Bai Cangshu.
【Reincarnator rm31171003 has initiated a trade with you】
【You have obtained B-rank Singularity *1】
【You have obtained Dimension Point *12000】
Bai Cangshu raised an eyebrow and whistled flippantly; these veterans of Clear Sky were indeed wealthy and imposing, giving a price that many Rare and Peerless items could not fetch just to ask for a piece of information of little use.
Of course, Bai Cangshu could not understand the special relationship between people, and therefore could not understand how important the final moments of a dead person were to those who cared for them.
Bai Cangshu was a guy who valued the Contract spirit; having received this reward, which he considered quite generous, he recalled for a moment and began to recount the final story of that Reincarnator who had lingered on in the Pirate World and triggered a massive catastrophe.
"That Roland was probably dead long ago; what supported him to stay in the Pirate World seemed to be just one thought. He said, 'He must strike the God of the Abyss with one sword'..."
Bai Cangshu recounted the whole story: how Roland became a God Hand and was imprisoned by Enel, used the power of erosion to drastically change the situation on that island, possessed himself to fight for control of his own body, and finally severed his own Spirit Body, opening a new round of the 【Eclipse】 and drawing the descent of that Black King of the Black King Society, ultimately choosing to die by his own hand.
He did not hide the truth that Roland's Spirit Body had ultimately lunged at himself and been killed.
Listening to Roland's final struggle and dying wish, Luo Man was already streaming with tears; she finally understood why Boss Cao Qi did not want her to know, otherwise, she would definitely have wanted to help Roland fulfill that wish.
To strike the God of the Abyss with one sword for Guts!
Reincarnators in the 【Clear Sky】 Gathering treated Plot Characters completely differently from other Reincarnators; many of them genuinely wanted to help those poor people struggling within the scripted scenarios.
Roland was one such case.
They entered the 【Berserk World】 and brought Guts out, thereby triggering a series of disputes that involved the fall of many Plot Characters and Reincarnators.
And they allowed the Causality of the 【God of the Abyss】 to affect many worlds.
In the end, everything concluded with Guts voluntarily throwing himself into the Eclipse and the death of Roland.
No... Luo Man suddenly realized one thing: that Black King had entered the Abyss world, and the fact that she was now permitted to touch upon these matters meant that, in the eyes of Boss Cao Qi, she would no longer be calculated by the Causality of the God of the Abyss...
"The God of the Abyss was... by Luffy..."
She closed her eyes, not wanting to expose any more emotion; in the eyes of Tao Baibai, who was staring at her unblinkingly, there was no sympathy, no mockery, only an inquiry into the Intelligence.
Luo Man did not want to meet Tao Baibai's gaze; she even felt that those were not eyes a human should have; Tao Baibai was more like a "pseudo-human."
"I hope Roland did not choose the wrong person."
Luo Man left only this sentence before teleporting away from the Shanty Town; it was clear she had already guessed that at the moment of his death, Roland had voluntarily used the power of the 【Hope Morning Star】 and handed that 【Card】, which she could never find, to this increasingly mysterious Tao Baibai.
Roland's choice, Cao Qi's choice, Adam's choice—all told Luo Man that Tao Baibai was very special, but she no longer wanted to investigate further.
Bai Cangshu watched the place where the woman had disappeared, his mind still echoing her half-sentence.
The God of the Abyss was killed or sealed by the Black King, Luffy?!
Could the Black King Society reach such a level...
Bai Cangshu felt more curiosity toward this group, which could be called the most mysterious in this space.
"Excuse me, I want to buy this Drop Card."
A human voice sounded at this moment, interrupting Bai Cangshu's reverie; he did not expect that someone would immediately come to make an offer for these Scavenger Scarlet Drop Cards.
The person who arrived wore silver-white armor, carried black and white swords on his back, and had a heroic face, but there was not much sharpness in his eyes.
Bai Cangshu had an impression of this person; this Reincarnator with the codename 【show】 was also favored by many top-tier Reincarnators, who believed he possessed great combat aptitude.
Moreover, he had once purchased a vial of 【Compound V】 from Bai Cangshu.
What made Bai Cangshu even more impressed by him was that this person was one of the very few Reincarnators who showed no unusual reaction when facing him.
Whether it was fear, disgust, worship, or hatred... there was none; show seemed as if he did not know of Tao Baibai's special nature, and he treated Tao Baibai no differently than anyone else.
"This is my offer; take a look."
He raised his hand, and a strong purple hue rippled out from the item in his hand; the intensity of that radiance instantly swirled around Bai Cangshu's stall.
This level of purple radiance was unprecedented!
【Reincarnator ii67855510 (show) has shown you the item: Azure Heaven Hegemon Blood】
It was a drop of blood, just a single drop floating in mid-air, but that intense purple radiance surpassed all descriptions.
This thing was Rare and Peerless!
