Chapter 209

【You have killed Numa Seka】

【Numa Seka is a key figure in the Jibei. You have gained 1.1% of the World's Source. You now have a total of 4.7% of the World's Source.】

【Your talent 'Spirit Eater' has been activated, permanently increasing your mana by 14 points. Your current mana is 502 points.】

Spirit Eater increasing mana by 14 points shows that Numa Seka's strength was not weak, which goes to show just how terrifying an assassin-specialized member of the Black Ops can be.

Assassinating an enemy leader before a battle begins deals a devastating blow to the enemy's morale.

A blue treasure chest appeared on Numa Seka's corpse. Su Xiao's luck has been quite good lately, or rather, the enemies he has been encountering recently are all very strong.

After putting away the blue treasure chest and Numa Seka's head, Su Xiao left the fortress town three minutes later. Two hours later, Su Xiao returned to the front of his own fortress.

Two hours and ten minutes later, Numa Seka's head was placed before Esdeath. The entire operation took a total of six hours and four minutes.

Killing amidst the red dust, escaping within the white blades.

Esdeath had already gone to sleep, but upon hearing that Su Xiao had returned, she came over specifically.

"Numa Seka's head?"

Su Xiao's efficiency was so high that even Esdeath found it hard to believe. Her original plan was to assassinate Numa Seka tomorrow when the battle began, as there would be more opportunities then.

Esdeath opened the blood-stained cloth bundle, and a head rolled onto the wooden table.

The other generals present exclaimed in surprise; they were not afraid of the head, but rather shocked by Numa Seka's death.

"Excellent! Without Numa Seka's leadership, I'd like to see how these Jibei alien tribes can resist."

"Tomorrow, we will surely crush these alien tribes."

The atmosphere in the room became heated, and several generals who had been somewhat dismissive of Su Xiao cast approving glances his way.

"Were there any accidents during the operation, or did the enemy forces discover you?"

Esdeath was very calm, but the smile on her lips could not be hidden; it seemed she was very satisfied with Su Xiao's efficiency.

"At least until I left, the Jibei army did not discover me. Throughout the entire process, I only killed Numa Seka. During that time, I severely injured a city wall guard; after breaking his spine, I threw him into a snowdrift, so he won't be discovered for a short time."

Those generals exchanged glances; they had gained a new understanding of Su Xiao's operational capability.

"Good!"

Esdeath slapped the wooden table and stood up with a 'whoosh'.

"The troops have rested for over six hours. Assemble the entire army; we march immediately to launch a night raid on the enemy fortress."

At Esdeath's command, all the generals stood up to receive their orders; this was an excellent opportunity.

A night raid combined with the death of their leader could be considered a catastrophic disaster for the Jibei army.

"You've worked hard. You don't need to participate in the subsequent war. Go back and get a good night's sleep; prepare to return to the Imperial Capital with me tomorrow."

Esdeath stood up and left, as if the war had already been won.

After everyone in the room had left, an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Su Xiao's mouth.

His efforts had finally paid off; he would return to the Imperial Capital with a high-ranking position, and the plan was progressing smoothly.

Returning to his bedroom, there was only a bed and a wardrobe, which appeared somewhat crude.

With 500,000 troops stationed at the Jibei fortress, having a private room was already VIP treatment. Esdeath was his neighbor.

An exquisite lighter appeared in his hand, and Su Xiao checked the cooldown time of the Lucky Flame.

After the +7 reinforcement, the Lucky Flame's cooldown was significantly reduced, but an awkward problem arose: he didn't have 600 Paradise Coins to use the Lucky Flame.

Looking at the remaining 157 Paradise Coins, Su Xiao felt quite helpless.

He could only open one of the two blue treasure chests first; opening a chest was highly likely to yield Paradise Coins.

After hesitating for a while, Su Xiao decided to open the treasure chest dropped by Numa Seka first; Fenrir's strength was greater, and the value of the chest would also be higher.

【You have opened the treasure chest (blue) and obtained the following items】

Introduction: Died before achieving success? No... died unjustly.

Seeing the attributes of the 【Ice Domain Prince Token】, Su Xiao was somewhat surprised; he might never be able to use this thing in his lifetime.

He glanced at his personal attribute of 3 Charisma, then looked at the 15 Charisma requirement for the 【Ice Domain Prince Token】.

"Trash."

Casually tossing the token onto the bed, Su Xiao turned his gaze to the other treasure chest.

Actually, the 【Ice Domain Prince Token】 wasn't trash; it was very valuable to summoners, but there weren't many summoners in Reincarnation Paradise, so it would be somewhat difficult to sell.

*Snap*, the lid of the Lucky Flame lighter popped open, and a wisp of pale blue flame appeared.

The Lucky Flame was different from before; it used to provide +1 Luck, but now after being reinforced to +7, it had grown to +2 Luck.

Lighting a cigarette, opening the chest—the movements were done in one go. The flash he had imagined did not appear.

But strangely, the treasure chest neither showed a flash phenomenon nor followed the normal opening process.

Usually, after opening a treasure chest, the items would automatically fall into his hands, but this time the chest lid was open, yet nothing appeared in his hand, not even a prompt.

"Could it be..."

Su Xiao's expression was not very good; he thought of a situation that was black to the extreme.

That was that the treasure chest was empty.

He had used the Lucky Flame, and the chest itself was of blue quality; how could the combination of the two result in an empty chest? This was something Su Xiao found hard to accept.

But he noticed a strange scene: the treasure chest did not disappear after being opened; that open chest seemed to be mocking Su Xiao.

Just then, a cyan radiance surged out from within the chest, and a phantom wolf head rushed out from inside.

*Awoo!! *

A wolf's howl spread out. Su Xiao was sitting cross-legged on the bed, and this sudden turn of events startled him. He immediately flipped backward, and Checking Zhan Long Shan appeared in his hand.

He could accept opening an empty chest, but the chest actually had a trap?

With Checking Zhan Long Shan held horizontally in front of him, Su Xiao vigilantly stared at the treasure chest.

The wolf's howl traveled very far, but strangely, no one rushed into the room, which showed that only he could hear this howl.

Inside the chest was the phantom of the giant wolf Fenrir. At this moment, the giant wolf was staring at Su Xiao with hatred, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, but it could not escape the chest.

*Boom. *

The treasure chest vibrated, and a black hole formed at the center. Fenrir's phantom was instantly sucked into the black hole.

The strange phenomenon disappeared, and the blue treasure chest gradually turned into light particles. An egg-sized meat ball fell onto the bed.

Using Checking Zhan Long Shan to poke the meat ball, it didn't react. Su Xiao tried touching it with his finger, and the meat ball's attributes appeared.

【Fenrir's Essence】

Origin: Akame ga Kill!

Quality:???

Type:???

Rating:???

Introduction: Essence is a scarce strategic resource and can be sold to Reincarnation Paradise.

Selling Price: 20000 Paradise Coins, Soul Crystal (Small) x4.

Su Xiao raised an eyebrow. Given Reincarnation Paradise's consistent style, the price of this item was definitely more than just 20,000 Paradise Coins + Soul Crystals.

But what exactly was this essence? Perhaps it could be consumed to enhance attributes?

After hesitating for a long time, Su Xiao didn't dare to take a bite. This thing had no shelf life and no safety certification; if he ate it and died, he could only blame his own bad luck.
