Chapter 229

During the conversation, the personal terminals of Lu Li and Su Xueyi both sent prompt sounds. The two took a look and found that the information about the two had been updated and registered in the Northern Territory. In this way, their actions in the Northern Territory next would be much more convenient.

This is also one of the characteristics of the Ancient Kingdom and a linkage between the four major regions.

For example, if a Magic Card Master commits a crime in the Eastern Territory and runs to other major regions, then wanting to arrest the other party is relatively troublesome. After all, Magic Card Masters in other major regions don't know whether these Magic Card Masters from outside regions have a background or are clean.

And in order to guard against this, although the Magic Card Associations of the four major regions are independent of each other, there is actually a corresponding linkage mechanism between them, having a shared database.

This database generally does not record the information of ordinary Magic Card Masters. What is stored in it are the lists of some Magic Card Masters who have committed crimes, need to be punished, but have escaped.

It is precisely because of this special database and mechanism that as long as these wandering Magic Card Masters enter the four major regions, the relevant information will be updated immediately, and Magic Card Masters in the corresponding major regions will receive push information.

At the same time, the Magic Card Associations of the corresponding four major regions will also put up corresponding bounty tasks. As long as these bounty tasks can be completed, no matter which major region they belong to, Magic Card Masters can get corresponding rewards.

According to Lu Li's understanding, this is actually equivalent to the previous life, where he went from one city to another, and after crossing the boundary, the positioning was updated, and he would also receive a welcome message.

There is no big difference between the two, but the processing method of the Magic Card civilization is relatively more advanced and magical, and even integrates bounty tasks into it, saving Magic Card Masters quite a bit of time.

"Huh? This looks like the three Magic Card Masters you solved before." Su Xueyi pulled Lu Li. The screen displayed on her personal terminal was the bounty task related to the trio of Bing Tianchen.

"I didn't expect that the three people you killed were actually wanted Magic Card Masters, and all three were Emperors!" Su Xueyi slid the page, and the introduction of the trio of Bing Tianchen and the reasons for being wanted were soon learned by the two.

However, Su Xueyi didn't care about the reasons why the trio of Bing Tianchen were wanted. Being able to be wanted is enough to show that the other party has at least a few lives on their hands.

Su Xueyi's more attention to the trio of Bing Tianchen lies in their strength: "These three people are actually Emperor-level Magic Card Masters!"

429. Slightly unexpected harvest

From the beginning of the battle to the end, Su Xueyi and Lu Li had always stayed in the submarine, so naturally, she didn't know that the trio of Bing Tianchen were Emperor-level Magic Card Masters.

Although from the performance of the Deep Sea Mad Shark and other Magic Card Spirits, one could guess a bit, it's just that Su Xueyi didn't want to admit it too much at the beginning.

After all, she hasn't broken through to the Commander Realm until now, while Lu Li possesses the strength to defeat Emperors.

For a time, Su Xueyi couldn't help but feel a bit dazed. Lu Li's improvement in strength was even more terrifying than they had imagined.

But soon, a trace of pride rose in Su Xueyi's heart! This is the person she chose! The more outstanding Lu Li is, the more it proves that her vision is correct!

"Looking at it this way, your killing of these three can also be considered as eliminating harm for the people." The change in identity brought about a change in mentality. Although the gap was larger than imagined, Su Xueyi still wouldn't give up chasing Lu Li, just not as tangled as in the past.

Not only her, but also girls like Shangguan Wan'er were the same. This is the consensus and tacit understanding reached between them.

Even if there is a gap between them and Lu Li, they won't give up just like that.

"By the way, among the items exploded after you killed the three, is there anything that can prove their identity? If there is, then we can just complete this bounty task." Suddenly, Su Xueyi mentioned, a trace of excitement flashing in her eyes.

Although as an elite member of the Magic Card Association, she would occasionally take on tasks from the association on weekdays, this was the first time she had encountered a bounty task like this, so naturally, she was more excited than in the past.

"I'll look for it," seeing this, Lu Li didn't rush to leave Frost Leaf City, just searched through the items exploded after killing the trio of Bing Tianchen.

To be honest, among the things exploded by the three, besides that incomplete Fairy's Invitation Letter, there was nothing that attracted him too much, so he just took a casual look at the time and didn't look too carefully, then threw everything into the Magic Card Editor.

Therefore, whether he could find the identity proof of the trio of Bing Tianchen, he didn't hold too much hope, and this also required spending some time.

Besides, Lu Li didn't expect that the trio of Bing Tianchen he killed would be wanted Magic Card Masters.

Or rather, even if he knew, if the other party hadn't set their sights on him, Lu Li wouldn't have had much interest in completing these bounty tasks, nor would he have specifically looked for the other party. After all, he had no way to predict the future and know where the trio of Bing Tianchen would appear.

Besides that, there is one

Money or whatever is, for Lu Li now, essentially just a number. After all, with the authority he possesses, even if he didn't work as a Magic Card Master, he wouldn't have to worry about supporting himself, though that is obviously impossible.

In fact, for the vast majority of Magic Card Masters who complete bounty missions, the money in the rewards is merely a side benefit; what they care about more are those special materials.

For Magic Card Masters, materials are always an eternal topic.

Crafting Magic Cards requires materials, and reconstructing them also requires materials, while special materials are the scarcest of the scarce. Therefore, many Magic Card Masters, even when choosing missions, generally pick those that include special materials in the rewards.

It's just that for Lu Li, the materials in bounty missions don't have as much appeal as one might imagine.

Unless it is a gold-grade material sufficient for crafting an eleven-star Magic Card, or a color-grade material for a twelve-star Magic Card, otherwise, even for nine-star orange-grade materials and ten-star red-grade materials, it is not a very difficult matter for Lu Li to obtain materials of this level.

Not to mention the materials the Night Queen handed to him a while ago, which started at a minimum of orange and red grade, and even included gold-quality materials.

With his current strength, although rewriting gold-grade materials consumes a relatively large amount of magic power, if it is just rewriting and fusing orange and red-grade materials, while he wouldn't dare say he could do it every minute, he can still manage to get a few pieces done in a day.

And although Bing Tianchen and his two companions are Emperors, to put it bluntly, the value of these three really isn't enough to compare to color-grade and gold-grade materials.

But, since Su Xueyi is interested in this aspect, and is able to recover from the separation from her parents, Lu Li feels that this is already enough.

"Found it, this should be able to prove the identities of those three." After searching for a while, Lu Li finally managed to find the items that could prove the identities of Bing Tianchen and his companions.

Subsequently, while accepting this bounty mission, the two clicked to submit the mission and placed the items proving the trio's identities into the small portal that appeared before them.

This is also a characteristic of missions issued by the Magic Card Association; one does not necessarily have to accept a mission before starting it.

Many Magic Card Masters actually complete different missions while out and about, and only accept and submit them simultaneously after returning.

After a moment of verification, Lu Li and Su Xueyi received the notification that the mission was complete, and at the same time, the rewards for this mission were also transmitted to the two through the small portal.

"Let's go, it's time to continue on our way." The scene that occurred in Frostleaf City was just a small interlude, and Lu Li and Su Xueyi soon continued their journey toward Frost Capital.

……

At the Frostleaf City Magic Card Association, a notification sound came from the personal terminal in Zhang Liaofeng's hand, which made him stop the work he was doing.

Generally speaking, ordinary matters naturally wouldn't need to disturb this Branch President of the Frostleaf City Magic Card Association, and anything that could bypass everyone else to appear on his personal terminal could be considered relatively important.

"Hmm? The bounty mission for Gui Changhan and his two companions has been completed?" Checking the information displayed on his personal terminal, a flash of astonishment crossed Zhang Liaofeng's face.

Hearing Zhang Liaofeng's words, Ku Zimo, who was to the side, also stopped his movements.

Since the end of the Four Great Academies' exchange tournament until now, several months have passed. After returning to the Northern Frontier, Ku Zimo proposed the idea of going out for training to Mu Zhan.

Regarding this, Mu Zhan was naturally very agreeable; for a Magic Card Master, working behind closed doors is not a good thing.

Moreover, Ku Zimo is already a high-tier King, and he is not far from advancing to Emperor. This trip out for training might be able to facilitate his breakthrough to the Emperor Realm.

And under Mu Zhan's recommendation, Ku Zimo eventually came to Frostleaf City, which is under Zhang Liaofeng's jurisdiction.

Zhang Liaofeng was also a student of the Northern Frontier in the past, but his talent was not as formidable as Ku Zimo's. Naturally, he was very welcoming of the arrival of Ku Zimo, this genius junior.

Upon learning of the other party's purpose and that he was recommended by Mu Zhan, Zhang Liaofeng also provided sufficient help.

During these days in Frostleaf City, Ku Zimo has gained more knowledge about the Northern Territory, which includes the trio of Bing Tianchen who were being hunted.

After all, the fame of these three is quite well-known among bounty missions.

430. The Loophole in the Titan Sanctuary

Although Bing Tianchen, Bing Tianchen, and Xin Siling are Magic Card Masters who are being hunted, they are considered somewhat famous within the Northern Territory, especially in places near the sea.

After all, having been hunted for such a long time without being caught, whether it is their strength, ability, or luck, it still manages to say something.

It's just unexpected that these three actually fell into the net without a sound; it really is somewhat beyond expectations.

As for what the final outcome of Bing Tianchen and his companions will be, Zhang Liaofeng and Ku Zimo have already guessed it without needing to think. Since the Magic Card Master who completed the mission confirmed it by submitting the trio's identity items, the three of them are likely in grave danger.

However, neither Zhang Liaofeng nor Ku Zimo delved too deeply into the fate of Bing Tianchen and his companions; as long as the three of them have indeed been brought to justice, that is already enough.

This is also equivalent to eradicating a few scourges for the Northern Territory, and the two are still quite happy in their hearts.

Especially Zhang Liaofeng, even more so.

Although due to confidentiality, Zhang Liaofeng does not know exactly who solved the problem of Bing Tianchen, since he received the notification, it means that the other party completed the mission submission within Frostleaf City.

From this point, it can also be inferred that perhaps Bing Tianchen and his companions were active in the sea area near Frostleaf City during this period.

If they were allowed to continue, it might be that the Magic Card Masters of Frostleaf City would suffer; after all, the Emperor-level squad configuration of Bing Tianchen and his companions is a hurdle that is difficult to cross for many Magic Card Masters.

Even a lone Emperor encountering this trio squad, if their rank is lower and their strength is weaker, would likely be devoured by the other party.

From this perspective, Zhang Liaofeng is still grateful to the Magic Card Master who took care of Bing Tianchen and his companions.

"Although I don't know who exactly solved the problem of Bing Tianchen and his companions, the other party can be considered to have cleared out some scum for the Northern Territory," to be honest, Zhang Liaofeng still cares very much about this point: "And, the strength of the other party is likely at least high-tier, or even peak Emperor."

"Even, the other party is very likely a Sovereign like me." Although Bing Tianchen and his companions are criminals, their strength has still been recognized by Zhang Liaofeng.

For an ordinary Emperor to take down this trio squad, the difficulty is extremely high; at the very least, one must be a high-tier or even peak-level Emperor to have a chance.

Of course, to say that one is absolutely certain to take down these three, there is no doubt that a Sovereign is the most reliable.

It's just that every Sovereign in the Northern Territory basically holds an important position and will not leave at will, and as for those wild, rogue Sovereigns, not only are they few in number, but they might not necessarily happen to encounter Bing Tianchen and his companions.

It is precisely because of this reason that Bing Tianchen and his companions have been able to remain at large for such a long time.

"Sovereign!" Hearing Zhang Liaofeng's words, Ku Zimo couldn't help but be lost in thought for a moment.

He is now only one step away from advancing to Emperor, and after advancing to Emperor, Ku Zimo's next goal is undoubtedly a Sovereign.

It's just that even for Ku Zimo, although he has confidence in breaking through to Sovereign, he dare not guarantee when he will be able to break through to the Sovereign Realm.

"Don't worry, Junior," noticing Ku Zimo's distraction, Zhang Liaofeng turned off his personal terminal: "Right now, you are only one step away from advancing to Emperor, and your talent is also better than mine. Believe that it won't take long before you can advance to Sovereign!"

Zhang Liaofeng has, after all, already broken into the Sovereign Realm for a not-so-short period of time. With his vision, he can naturally see that Ku Zimo's talent will definitely not stop at Emperor.

And after these few months of getting along, Zhang Liaofeng also has a more intuitive understanding of Ku Zimo's talent.

From graduating from the Northern Frontier until now, Ku Zimo has only spent a year and a half in total, and he is about to break through to the Emperor Realm. The other party's talent is undoubtedly the strongest among the many people Zhang Liaofeng has known.

In fact, Zhang Liaofeng has a feeling that perhaps in just a few decades, Ku Zimo will catch up to him and advance to Sovereign.

For ordinary Magic Card Masters, a few decades might just be enough to have just advanced to Commander or even Monarch, and even for students of the Four Great Academies, in a few decades, many people are still struggling in the King Realm, or even stopping at King.

But for a genius like Ku Zimo, a few decades is enough to shatter everyone's perceptions and advance to Emperor, or even Sovereign!
