Chapter 2224: Disciple of an 'Old Acquaintance
Near the fountain tower in the center of Twilight Island.
The morning weather was exceptionally clear, birds chirping and insects buzzing were endless, dew slid slowly along the leaves, and the cool air was very fresh.
The sound of splashing water came. Su Xiao sat cross-legged on a long stone chair, holding a tablet computer in his hand.
Twilight Island was originally a tourist resort in the Void. Due to unknown reasons, the space here began to be unstable. Many people died at that time, and it only recovered after nearly a hundred years, but the bad reputation had already spread, so no one was willing to spend money to rebuild the buildings on the island.
Taking a day, Su Xiao cleaned up the participants in the right zone of the island. Now only Nita and that female Feather tribe member remained. The leaderboard of the 7th War Zone was as follows:
1st Place: Samsara Paradise (47 points)
2nd Place: Death Paradise (40 points)
3rd Place: Feather tribe (3 points)
4th Place: Chanting Language tribe (2 points)
5th Place: Gruye tribe (1 point)
Existing factions in the 7th Hegemony Zone: 6.
The twins were located in the right zone of the island. After midnight last night, there was no sound of fighting there. It should be that the twins had also completed clearing the field.
Although Su Xiao and the twins were both clearing the field, the area of Twilight Island was not small, and some tribes were very good at hiding, so it was normal to have two fish that slipped through the net.
If it were the Mocking Skull Rampart in the 2nd Hegemony Zone or the Ancient Tree Temple in the 79th Hegemony Zone, Su Xiao would have completed clearing the field long ago. Compared to those two zones, Twilight Island was much larger.
This was just the first round of the Strongest Hegemony Battle, known as the nightmare zone of the 7th Hegemony Zone. As long as Su Xiao and the twins didn't have conflicts, it was normal to have the current situation.
Meteorite Star was blasted into autism, and the participants cooled down at the beginning. As for the Feather tribe, their main force was not in the 7th zone.
"Oh? So you are here."
The twin brothers stood on the long stone chair opposite the fountain tower. Their appearance, clothing, and even aura were exactly the same.
"..."
Su Xiao didn't speak, continuing to play the puzzle-solving game. He last met the developer of this game, Pi Pang, but unfortunately, the other party was in a certain world.
"Cold guy."
The twin brothers sat on the stone bench opposite. They took out two 17th-tier Rubik's cubes. At this moment, their auras slightly differed; it should be that they had lifted their mental connection.
The twins were about fifteen or sixteen years old, but in Paradise, age was never the key to judging strength. On the contrary, living until now at this age only showed that they were more dangerous and stronger than ordinary contractors.
The twins were likely Punisher Knights (similar to Hunters) of Death Paradise, and they were also very good at tracking enemies.
The crisp sound of the Rubik's cube twisting came. Not to mention how complex the structure of the 17th-tier Rubik's cube was, its volume was nearly the size of a basketball.
After a while, the twins looked at each other. Judging by their appearance, they seemed likely to fight. The brothers had a good relationship; the older brother beating the younger brother was definitely not a one-day or two-day thing.
Half an hour later, the twins sat side by side, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang also sat in a row with them, holding a 17th-tier Rubik's cube in his hand. After a while, Baha felt that the three of them might fight; the 17th-tier Rubik's cube could be called the source of irritability.
A wonderful and harmonious scene appeared like this. After all, if both sides fought now, it would be a huge loss.
"Friend from Samsara Paradise, why not... we take out some specialties to trade?"
The younger of the twins spoke. He was obviously a bit bored. Calling it a trade was actually just chatting.
"..."
"Our Death Paradise's specialty is 'Dead Saint Emblem', which is not a secret. Don't you have specialties on your side?"
During the chat, the twins had already started playing cards with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Amu. Clearly, they didn't know how good Amu's luck was when playing cards.
"Space-Time Power."
Su Xiao put away the tablet computer in his hand.
"Uh~ awesome."
The twins were speechless. What did Samsara Paradise have the most of? The answer was of course Space-Time Power. After all, they often won in World Contention Battles, while Death Paradise, as the ten-thousand-year runner-up, produced an item called 'Death Saint Emblem'.
"The specialties on the Apocalypse Paradise side are quite good. By comparison, the higher the tier there, the more contractors there are."
The twins threw down the playing cards in their hands at the same time. The Soul Crystals (Small) they used as chips had shrunk from 30 to 4.
"You guys."
The voice of Lord Rat came from high altitude.
At this time, Lord Rat was standing on a circular aircraft. The diameter of this thing was about 1 meter, and the thickness did not exceed 5 centimeters.
"There are only five participants left in the 7th Zone. 10 minutes later, the first round of the 7th Hegemony Zone ends. By the way, the seal on that box will be lifted in advance."
Leaving this sentence, Lord Rat controlled the aircraft beneath his feet and flew away.
Ten minutes passed in a flash. As soon as the time limit was up, Su Xiao received a prompt from Samsara Paradise.
【Hint: The Hunter has completed promotion in the first round.】
【Number of participants on our side in this round: 3.】
【Number of people promoted on our side in this round: 3.】
【Number of enemies killed by our side in this round: 85.】
【Teleportation is about to begin. Destination: Exclusive Rest Area for Strongest Hegemony Battle.】
【Hint: The rest area has been notarized by multiple factions including the World Tree, Samsara Paradise, Death Paradise, Apocalypse Paradise, Holy Light Paradise, Watcher Paradise, etc., and is an absolutely safe point.】
【Teleportation begins.】
Without the expected dull pain in the back of the head, light surged before Su Xiao's eyes. When his vision recovered, he was already in a spacious and bright hall.
"Newly produced ore, supports all currencies..."
The hawking sound came. Su Xiao shifted his gaze. Because the teleportation array was built relatively high, he saw a sturdy man with a mining shovel hanging on his waist sitting in front of the wall, with a small stall in front of him, on which various ores were placed. And beside this sturdy man, a weak-looking little girl was also squatting.
Half a circle of people had already gathered around, basically all participants from Void factions.
"Don't miss it when passing by..."
The sturdy man was shouting very enthusiastically.
"Doing this, is... is it a bit shameful."
The weak-looking little girl looked like she might cry at any time, but being able to be promoted from the first round, she was absolutely not as timid as she looked.
Su Xiao didn't pay attention to those two battle angels. As for why he could perceive that the two were battle angels, it was entirely because he had killed too many, so naturally, he was familiar with them.
Su Xiao looked at the metal plate in his hand, on which was written No. 1005, and on both sides of this hall that couldn't see the end, there were metal doors.
Among the 'passersby' who passed by, there was no weak aura, but they were basically from Void factions. The participants of various Paradises took the elite route, and the big tribes in the Void were the same. As for the small-to-medium tribes, their strength was uneven, and they were also the ones who accounted for the largest number of people in the Strongest Hegemony Battle.
Su Xiao quickly found the metal door engraved with No. 1005, stuck the metal plate into the groove on the door, and the metal door opened.
"Hey, Law-Exterminator, you actually really dare to come? You have guts."
A female voice came. Su Xiao's forward pace paused, and he looked at the person who came. This was a short-haired woman wearing red robes with ears full of earrings, a spellcaster of Arcane Eternal Star.
Seeing the other party, the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying in Su Xiao's body began to become active.
"My mentor told me to slaughter you, so, I hope to meet you in the next round..."
Before the female spellcaster finished speaking, a figure ran over quickly, directly grabbing her back collar and dragging her backward. The person who came wore a hood, and the robes on his body were mainly black and gold.
Strangely, sensing this person's aura, the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy in Su Xiao's body was not as active as just now.
"Sorry, she didn't take her medicine today, excuse me."
The male spellcaster wearing a hood, whose specific appearance could not be seen, smiled at Su Xiao, basically unable to sense malice.
"Xuge, woo~ let go, it hurts! Let go of me, Xu, you are the one who didn't take medicine..."
"Sorry to bother you."
The man known as Xuge left this sentence and dragged the short-haired female spellcaster away.
Looking at the female spellcaster being dragged away, Su Xiao frowned. The elemental fluctuations on the other party made him feel a bit familiar. That was the aura that only appeared after elements were forcibly stripped, aggregated, and formed into different elements.
This kind of elemental aura, Su Xiao had sensed it for the second time. The last time was when he met Mage Sage·Serphilia.
And this female spellcaster mentioned just now that her mentor told her to slaughter Su Xiao. From this point, Su Xiao judged that the other party was likely a disciple of Mage Sage·Serphilia.
Once at the Void Arena, Mage Sage·Serphilia almost left Su Xiao there forever. Fortunately, Violent Rat came to save the scene. Otherwise, Su Xiao would have been left there forever.
Thinking of these, a smile appeared on Su Xiao's face. He might have... encountered the disciple of Mage Sage·Serphilia. ===== CHAPTER 2225 =====
