Chapter 2371: Whisper

The gains from the nine Epic-level treasure chests were unsatisfactory, so Su Xiao simply opened the treasure chest dropped by the Alien King. The treasure chest just opened, and light flashed.

【You opened Holy Spirit-level treasure chest (27%).】

【You obtained Soul Whisper (Holy Spirit-level weapon).】

Introduction: A weapon transformed from the Alien King's space tail. This space tail, which inherited 37 generations, possesses incredible space adaptability and penetration. After being tempered by the souls of many generations of Kings, it has become a soul weapon.

Price: 630000 Paradise Coins

Opening the Alien King's treasure chest only allowed Su Xiao to obtain a short sword. This short sword was about 47 cm long, with a texture similar to metal. The hilt was full of fine armor plates, the blade edge was light and thin, and a row of armor plates on the blade spine made it not fragile, and it could be used even when fighting enemies head-on.

This sword was all passive-type abilities, and the characteristics were very suitable for Su Xiao. First, it could hurt space-type enemies. Encountering such an enemy's assassination, it was absolutely a fatal blow. Enemies who specialized in space-type all had one characteristic, which was that they liked to half-blend into the different space, thereby avoiding attacks.

Compared to the breaking space, Su Xiao was more optimistic about the soul strength gain of this short sword. The higher the soul strength, the sharper this short sword was, and it would also carry damage according to the soul strength difference.

Su Xiao's soul strength was 210 points. Assuming the enemy's soul strength was 50 points, with one slash, the additional damage would reach 3200 points, and it was still ignored defense additional damage. Combined with the true damage of Green Steel Shadow, the effect was quite good.

Seeing the attributes of this short sword, Su Xiao thought of one point, which was that if his soul strength wasn't high enough, he would have died in battle when fighting the Alien King before. The other party's space tail could definitely cause soul damage. This kind of damage was different from Xuge's black flames.

Xuge was burning the enemy's soul, and the space tail was judging the attack strength according to the soul strength difference.

Su Xiao's soul strength was obviously higher than the Alien King's, so he basically didn't receive soul damage. The Alien King had an ability called 'Soul · Strangling' that was never used. This was a very wise decision. If the Alien King used it at that time, Su Xiao basically wouldn't be affected, but would take the opportunity to gain the upper hand.

In a narrow environment, Su Xiao using Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan to fight was not convenient, and he couldn't unfold it at all. Although this situation was rare, it was not non-existent. So he always carried a short sword to avoid the occurrence of this situation.

The previous short sword was consumed when Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan was promoted. Su Xiao hadn't found a suitable short sword since then. 【Soul Whisper】 was quite good. It could not only be used for fighting, but when Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan improved quality, Holy Spirit-level weapons were not enough, and this short sword could also be used as 'emergency rations'.

Putting away 【Soul Whisper】, Su Xiao looked at the remaining three treasure chests, all Holy Spirit-level. One was obtained after seizing the Death Paradise base camp, and the other two were by killing Alien commanders.

Su Xiao decided to open the treasure chest obtained from seizing the base camp first. The remaining two were more special and could be synthesized.

【You opened Holy Spirit-level treasure chest.】

【You obtained 12 Soul Coins (Tier 7).】

【You obtained Giant Spirit Stone (Epic-level gem).】

This was obviously some European luck exhausted. After all, 【Soul Whisper】 was too suitable for Su Xiao. Even he himself didn't expect to get such a handy spare weapon.

Su Xiao picked up 【Holy Spirit-level treasure chest · Anjidu】 and 【Holy Spirit-level treasure chest · White Ape】 to synthesize

【Yes/No to synthesize a Holy Spirit-level treasure chest? If you proceed with this synthesis, it will consume 1 Soul Coin (Seventh Tier).】

Su Xiao decided to give it a try; it was his first time seeing treasure chests that could be synthesized, and these two chests had dropped together.

【You have obtained Overlord Treasure Chest: Strange White Ape.】

This was a surprise. Su Xiao had noticed during his previous fight with the giant ape that the parasite had usurped the body of an Overlord creature.

Overlord equipment is always special. Opening an Overlord treasure chest only has two outcomes: directly obtaining Overlord equipment or obtaining an Overlord Essence. Three Overlord Essences can be exchanged for one piece of Overlord equipment within Reincarnation Paradise; that is how 【Blood Feather】 was obtained.

【You have opened the Overlord treasure chest.】

【You have obtained Overlord Essence.】

A guaranteed reward. Two more Overlord Essences and he would have another piece of Overlord equipment. Obtaining 【Whisper of Souls】 earlier was already a huge profit.

With the chests opened, Su Xiao needed to consolidate his resources before improving his own strength. However, before that, he had to get some sleep; the battle against the Strange King had left him very exhausted.

After a hot shower, Su Xiao fell asleep as soon as he lay on the bed.

In his daze, Su Xiao felt a small thing jump over him. Not long after, something larger jumped over as well.

Not knowing how long he had slept, Su Xiao sat up blankly. He was always like this whenever he woke up, looking very dazed.

"Meow!"

"Woof!"

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Beni were facing each other. Judging by Beni's wriggling body, she was preparing to take the opportunity to pounce on Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's face. The cat-and-dog war had begun again. Baha was fanning the flames on the side, while Amu sat in the corner, wanting to intervene but not daring to.

"Stop fighting."

Su Xiao only had to glance at the damp fur on Beni's cat face to know why they were fighting. Nine times out of ten, Xiang Bubu had been dreaming about tearing up the house and had bitten Beni on the head; this had happened more than once or twice.

Just imagine, when had Beni ever suffered such a grievance? She would immediately scratch Xiang Bubu. How could Xiang Bubu let it go after being scratched awake? So they started fighting—a daily friendly interaction.

After a simple breakfast, Su Xiao walked out of his exclusive room. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang followed happily, sticking his tongue out at Beni before leaving.

Leaving the exclusive room, Su Xiao headed toward the direction of the Adventurer Team Guild; he had yet to collect the team supplies for the 'Red Iron Adventurer Team'.

After walking for more than twenty minutes, a magnificent building appeared ahead. The Adventurer Team Guild had arrived. This building was several hundred meters tall, and the shape of the structure above looked like a giant sword stuck upside down.

Entering the Adventurer Team Guild, there were not many contractors here, mostly intelligence peddlers.

Although the entire building was magnificent, it only had one floor. There were three core areas: Adventurer Team Creation/Transfer, Adventurer Team Level Up, and the Intelligence Trading Platform.

After searching for a while, Su Xiao finally found the resource storage area. If the team space was full, materials could be temporarily stored here for a daily usage fee of 2,000 Paradise Coins.

Su Xiao pressed one hand on the identification device, and a prompt appeared.

【Yes/No to collect stored materials? If you collect these materials, you must pay 50,000 Paradise Coins.】

20% of a Sixth-Tier Adventurer Team's team space materials were, no matter how you looked at it, worth 50,000 Paradise Coins.

【You have obtained Space Compression Storage Box x7. After opening, the storage boxes will be reclaimed.】

Several metal boxes, each one meter in length and width, appeared. The items inside belonged to Su Xiao, while the boxes belonged to Reincarnation Paradise.

Su Xiao opened the first storage box. Opening this stuff didn't bring the same surprise as a treasure chest, but the returns should be decent.

【You have obtained Soul Crystal (Small) x95.】

【You have obtained Soul Crystal (Medium) x53.】

【You have obtained Soul Crystal (Large) x9.】

The first storage box was full of Soul Crystals; a Sixth-Tier Adventurer Team was still quite wealthy.

With this good start, a smile appeared on Su Xiao's face, but after he opened the second storage box, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"Woof?"

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was a bit confused. He couldn't figure out why the leader of the Red Iron Adventurer Team would stuff a bunch of these things into the team space—employee benefits?
