Chapter 1407

~8 min read 1,434 words

Although the assistant's manners were somewhat rough, her well-proportioned figure, gained from long-term training, was incomparable to that of ordinary women. Moreover, the assistant possessed a unique temperament; after putting on a black gauze dress and wearing a gemstone pendant, she exuded a unique charm.

Su Xiao looked the assistant up and down; there was no problem with her attire, yet overall, she gave off a strange feeling.

"Walk a few steps."

Hearing this, the assistant tried her best to maintain elegance as she walked forward a few steps.

"Seems like there's no problem now."

"Really?"

The assistant was now desperate to take off these clothes that made her feel uncomfortable all over. The party wouldn't start until 8:00 PM, and it was currently past 4:00 AM.

"Once you enter the venue, act on your own. Don't do anything that draws attention. If you discover a disturbance in the back area, immediately spray the compressed kerosene bottle inside the venue, then act according to the situation."

"Understood."

The assistant cheered and rushed into the bedroom. A moment later, she changed into loose clothing and sat cross-legged on the sofa in shorts.

Su Xiao took out three 19.67mm Na-Core high-speed bullets. These three bullets were all lightning-elemental bullets, which could push the piercing capability of the Duke of Annihilation to the extreme. The ideal assassination was a one-shot kill; preparing three bullets was just a precaution.

If Su Xiao failed to snipe the target with the first shot, he would use the Duke of Annihilation to instantly collapse the venue, then rush into the venue to assassinate Dubo Yisi. Of course, this was a backup plan.

With 16 hours left until the party started, Su Xiao threw the energetic assistant into the bedroom and gave her an order: sleep, and she was not allowed to get up until 6:00 PM.

Ignoring the bored assistant lying on the bed, Su Xiao sat in front of a wooden table and took two treasure chests out of his storage space. Before assassinating Dubo Yisi, he had to improve his own combat power as much as possible.

There were two treasure chests in total: one was a Gold-quality treasure chest Su Xiao obtained by killing an enemy officer inside the fortress, and the second was the reward for destroying the Saint-Li Gate Fortress, 【Gift of War】, which was of Legendary quality.

Seeing Su Xiao place the two treasure chests on the table, Xiang Bubu Wang, who hadn't seen a treasure chest for some time, ran over, full of anticipation for what was about to happen.

Su Xiao had previously obtained the "Goddess's Favor" passive skill, which permanently increased his Luck attribute by 1 point. If the bonus from his "European Emperor" state was included, his Luck attribute could reach 7 points in a short time, which was absolutely an unprecedented situation.

"Xiang Bubu, my luck has turned around recently."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Xiang Bubu Wang looked up at the ceiling, meaning: "Master, you said the same thing last time when you opened a pair of socks."

Su Xiao lit a cigarette and exhaled pale gold smoke. He felt that the world around him had changed, which greatly increased his confidence.

【Yes/No to open the treasure chest (Gold · Produced in War World).】

Su Xiao decisively chose to open it.

【You have opened the treasure chest produced in the War World.】

【You have obtained Soul Crystal (Large) x1, this is a guaranteed reward.】

【You have obtained 20,000 Paradise Coins, this is a guaranteed reward.】

【You have obtained Firearms Mastery (Skill Scroll).】

A scroll and a Soul Crystal (Large) appeared in Su Xiao's hand. This unexpected harvest brought a smile to Su Xiao's face. Sure enough, the increase in the Luck attribute had improved his fortune a lot.

Su Xiao put the Firearms Mastery scroll and the Soul Crystal into his storage space. He still had one treasure chest to open; that was the main event.

【Yes/No to open the Gift of War.】

As soon as Su Xiao chose to open it, a turntable the size of a washbasin appeared in front of him.

【Randomly drawing reward grade...】

There were three areas on the turntable, one of which was the largest and marked as "Common Rewards." This area was marked with: equipment, gems, real attribute points, and other rewards.

The second area was relatively smaller and marked as "Rare Rewards." There were six types of rewards: Book of Awakening (Second Time), Rare Bloodline/Profession, Black Abyss Invitation, Unstable Device, Master's Power (2/10), and Roland-Yat Radioactive Material.

Among the six rewards, the 【Rare Bloodline/Profession】 area was grayed out, meaning Su Xiao could not draw this option. Noticing this, he immediately thought of a certain situation, and after seeing the rewards in the third area, his suspicion was confirmed.

The third area of the turntable was the smallest and marked as "Exclusive Rewards." There were only two rewards: Soul-Severing Shadow Stone · Fragmented, and Sealing Box.

Seeing these two rewards, Su Xiao had a new understanding of the 【Gift of War】. This thing was different from ordinary treasure chests; the resources produced by ordinary treasure chests had a large luck component, and whether they were suitable for Su Xiao depended entirely on luck.

The Gift of War was different. For example, Su Xiao did not need the 【Rare Bloodline/Profession】 reward, so this reward became gray, meaning he would not draw this item.

The turntable rotated at high speed. There was only one chance. Whether it was the Book of Awakening (Second Time), the Black Abyss Invitation, or the Soul-Severing Shadow Stone · Fragmented, they all had extraordinary significance to Su Xiao.

As for the Sealing Box, which was the hardest to draw, its function was currently unknown. Su Xiao didn't expect to draw it either; as long as he didn't get a common reward, any other reward would be acceptable.

The speed of the turntable gradually slowed down, and Su Xiao stared at the turntable with focused attention.

"Woof!"

Xiang Bubu Wang suddenly barked. Su Xiao was staring at the turntable with focused attention, and this sudden bark really gave him quite a shock.

Su Xiao looked at Xiang Bubu Wang. Xiang Bubu Wang, sitting on the ground, quickly scooted backward, meaning: "Master, please let me explain, there was a mosquito provoking me just now."

Just as Su Xiao was about to get up, a prompt from Reincarnation Paradise appeared.

【You have obtained the Black Abyss Invitation.】

【Black Abyss Invitation】

Origin: Reincarnation Paradise/Void/War World

Quality: Legendary

Type: Invitation

Effect: Can be used to enter the shallowest layer of the Black Abyss, with a stay duration of 15 natural days.

Quota: 5 people

Rating: 530+

Introduction: Before entering the Black Abyss, the Hunter needs to consider carefully. The Black Abyss is one of the dangerous places in the Void. It is recommended that Tier 5 or above Contractors enter in teams.

Price: Cannot be sold, can be destroyed.

A piece of pitch-black animal skin appeared in Su Xiao's hand. This thing was about the size of an A4 paper, with crooked characters written on it, and a blank area at the very bottom.

If one wanted to use this, they had to cut their finger first and then press their handprint with blood at the bottom. Counting Su Xiao, Xiang Bubu Wang, and Amu, he could still bring two more people into the Black Abyss.

If Su Xiao really wanted to enter the Black Abyss, he certainly wouldn't bring others to find trouble for himself; at most, it would be a combination of one man, one dog, and one cow.

Black smoke drifted from the animal skin, forming small whirlpools. These whirlpools gave a sense of ominousness. Su Xiao hadn't even entered the Black Abyss yet, but he could already feel how dangerous it was there.

He wouldn't enter the Black Abyss in the short term. It was written very clearly that it was recommended for Tier 5 Contractors to enter in teams. Of course, it wasn't that Tier 4 Contractors weren't qualified to enter, but it was relatively dangerous.

If five Tier 5 Contractors entered the shallowest layer of the Black Abyss, that would be exploration. For Tier 4, it would be survival. As for those below Tier 4, that would basically be trying their luck; if their luck was bad, they would die in a short time.

Su Xiao actually wanted to enter the Black Abyss to explore, but he planned to accumulate a few more worlds. Before Tier 5, he would definitely go to "appreciate" the scenery of the Black Abyss.
