Chapter 2137

After dealing with Connie, Su Xiao rushed toward the direction where Amu was.

When Su Xiao arrived, he saw a very strange scene: a man wearing a black combat suit with naturally curly hair was bombarding Amu with a handgun.

Although it was called a handgun, Su Xiao felt that thing was more like a grenade launcher, blasting Amu quite miserably.

In fact, compared to Amu, the enemy was even more speechless. After this sniper was entangled by Amu, that three-meter-long sniper rifle became a fire poker. If he dared to use this thing to blast Amu, Amu would teach him a lesson using his magma state.

And the more portable melee firearms lacked sufficient power, or rather, Amu was simply too resistant to being beaten.

Su Xiao had just arrived at the battlefield, and the sniper who was bombarding Amu stopped firing.

Crack~

A crisp sound came from behind the sniper. The sniper rifle on his back began to crack from the barrel. In at most 0.5 seconds, the entire sniper rifle shattered and was completely scrapped.

This sniper knew that after being closed in on by Su Xiao, he was dead for sure. Not only was there a Tauren around, but also a follower dog; he had no chance of escaping.

Neither side had any nonsense; Su Xiao stepped forward with his blade.

Su Xiao and Amu formed a diagonal, sandwiching this sniper in the middle. Under such circumstances, the sniper was undoubtedly dead.

The battle ended quickly. Su Xiao sat on a pile of rubble, and the shattered crystal layer slid off his cheek, dissipating before it even hit the ground.

This sniper self-destructed. Amu was blown half a kilometer away, while Su Xiao was faster and escaped the center of the explosion at the critical moment.

From beginning to end, this sniper didn't say a word, just like his combat style: waiting in loneliness to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy. He didn't even have a name or code name; Sfink called him a partner, and Connie called him the silent man. After all, not everyone could go a month, or even half a year, without saying a word.

When he first met this sniper, Sfink once suspected he was a mute, until one day, he suddenly asked Sfink: "Where is the restroom?"

Through these words, Sfink and Connie knew that this teammate wasn't a mute.

"A pity."

Su Xiao muttered. Originally, he wanted to try whether killing this sniper could drop a Scarlet Card. After all, the opponent's sniper rifle was very powerful. If hit in the torso or other parts, Su Xiao could withstand at most three shots; one shot to a vital point and he would fall.

This sniper was quite decisive. Knowing that it was a certain-death situation, he didn't beg for mercy, nor did he lament, but directly destroyed the weapon he relied on for survival—decisive to an unbelievable degree.

Su Xiao took out a communicator from his pocket, and soon, Baha's voice came from the communicator.

"Already solved 50%."

"50%?"

Su Xiao looked puzzled. He had previously asked Baha to assassinate Sfink, but Baha's reply was that 50% had already been solved.

"Sfink froze himself. Boss, you know my ability to express things; you'd better come and see for yourself. He definitely can't escape."

Ending the communication with Baha, Su Xiao rushed toward the central area of Eisenla. The Dark Guardians he saw along the way were all in a 'growth state'; they stood still in place, motionless, with large tree roots spreading from their feet into the ground.

Some Dark Guardians even grew green branches and leaves. Judging from the current momentum, Eisenla might turn into a forest.

Arriving below a clock tower in the central area, after entering the clock tower, Su Xiao saw a staircase leading to the underground. Following the stairs downward, he didn't walk far before cold air surged from ahead.

A corpse was sprawled over a broken wooden door. Upon initial identification, Su Xiao recognized this as one of Sfink's confidants, Lady Moon. This woman had a gunshot wound to the head. This terrifying gunshot wound reminded Su Xiao of the sniper just now.

Infighting? No, Su Xiao felt it was more like silencing. Lady Moon must have made the wrong choice at the last moment and was silenced by Sfink.

Entering an underground stone room where cold air was rising, Su Xiao saw an ice sculpture. The ice sculpture was sitting on a wooden chair, and the area within a few meters, including the wooden chair, was frozen.

Baha was landing on top of the ice sculpture, and bloodstains could still be seen on his claws. He had ripped open Sfink's nape with one claw.

Crack~

Cracks appeared on the ice sculpture, and the next moment it exploded, with crystal-clear ice shards splashing everywhere.

"Dying at the hands of your follower is somewhat of a loss of face."

As soon as Sfink finished speaking, a long blade slashed across his neck, giving him no chance to continue speaking at all.

A timer slid out from Sfink's sleeve and fell to the ground, with a countdown of 7 minutes and 27 seconds on it.

Su Xiao didn't know what would happen after 7 minutes and 27 seconds, but judging by the style of the three of them, this should be a means of mutual destruction.

The time on the timer stopped, Sfink's corpse fell from the wooden chair, and a Scarlet Card fell to the ground.

【Prompt: You have killed the ultra-high-risk violator, Sfink.】

【Successfully reclaimed 4100 ounces of Space-Time Power!】

【You are temporarily holding Sealing Box x7 (Sealing).】

【You obtained a Scarlet Card (★★★★★★).】

Seeing the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao confirmed that Sfink was the mastermind behind this. The trade between Reincarnation Paradise and Holy Light Paradise was most likely sabotaged with Sfink as the head, plus the support of the Old Gods.

Sfink obtained the most Space-Time Power, followed by the Black Goat, Shub. As for the Dominator, Sothoth, that brother was quite miserable; not only did he get fewer benefits, but he was also schemed against by Sfink.

【Dark Prison Gate · Eisenla has been re-stabilized.】

【The fourth ring of the main quest has been activated.】

【Main Quest: Wild Hunt (Fourth Ring, this is the final stage of the quest)】

Difficulty Level: Lv. 56

Quest Information: Kill the Source of Darkness, Azathoth.

Prompt: Because the hunter has cleared the Eyeless, Azathoth, the location of the Source of Darkness, Azathoth, has been locked.

Quest Deadline: 10 days.

Quest Reward: Golden Skill Point x2

Quest Penalty: Forced execution

Seeing the quest reward for the final stage, Su Xiao couldn't help but miss the time he invaded Apocalypse Paradise. In that quest, he was rewarded with 5 Golden Attribute Points in a single go, and the Apocalypse Paradise contractors were easy to hack—one slash per person, unlike the Old Gods in this world, who were stronger than the last.

However, the current situation was excellent. Sfink and the Black Goat had both been slaughtered by Su Xiao. As long as Su Xiao didn't die in the subsequent battles, there would be no more accidents.

While thinking, Su Xiao had just walked out of the clock tower when he saw Xia setting up something in the distance.

"Don't come over!"

As soon as Xia's shout fell.

Boom!

The sound of an explosion came, and shrapnel splashed everywhere. Xia was hiding behind a building.

A semi-tree-ified Dark Guardian turned its head, looking toward the direction where Xia was. Its movements were stiff and slow.

"What are you doing?"

Su Xiao dropped the shrapnel he was holding between his fingers. Hearing him ask this, Xia looked at the semi-tree-ified Dark Guardian and argued quite seriously:

"I'm testing the power of explosives."

"Pfft~"

Baha turned his head, holding back laughter. Xia felt her face burning; because of the 'battle' just now, her inner clothing was soaked with sweat.

Just a moment ago, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang told Xia some good news: the Dark Guardians had all fallen into silence, so Xia should hurry up and kill two. Her tier was very low, and she might get some benefits.

Xia certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity. With Xiang Bubu and Amu on the side, she gathered her courage, took out a melee weapon, and went to knock on the Dark Guardian.

The Dark Guardian's stamina attribute wasn't high, only 81 points. Of course, this 'only' was for Su Xiao. Xia knocked with all her might for several minutes, sweating all over, but that Dark Guardian didn't pay any attention to her at all, just looked at Xia with some 'helplessness', seemingly asking silently: "What are you doing?"

Xia's tears almost burst out; it was too damaging to her self-esteem. She decided not to fight anymore; she wanted to go home!

Under Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's comfort, Xia took out explosives, and the result of the explosion was that the Dark Guardian glanced at her, the meaning seemingly: "What are you doing again?"

"Give up, there won't be any kill rewards. Their source of power is the Bronze Gate."

Hearing this sentence from Su Xiao, Xia froze.

"Xiang Bubu!"

And one kilometer behind Su Xiao, several figures were hiding behind a building. These people were all women, they were the Holy Light Paradise team.
