Chapter 2374

Void, Ataha Star, Dead Ash Bunker.

The sky was hazy, with substances like paper ash floating all over the sky. The earth was desolate and had severely desertified.

A wooden cross stood abruptly on the ground. Several semi-mechanical vultures were landing on it, pairs of brownish-brown pupils scanning the surroundings, looking for living creatures that were still somewhat normal.

This was Ataha, a famous lawless place in the Void. Great races like the Demon race, the Feather race, and the Arcane Eternal Star could not govern this place.

Ataha was absolute freedom and chaos. The only people who could survive here were scavengers who were poor enough to sell their own life force, and criminals who had been exiled.

There was no unified race here; criminals from all races gathered here, so more people called this place the Land of Exile.

The ground was a danger zone. Without protective equipment, one would go into shock in less than ten minutes, followed by mechanical infection. The first to mutate was the skeleton. The iron elements in the whole body would gather at a certain point in the body. This process was very painful. What was even more terrifying was that the infected would not die, but continue to linger on, ingesting a large amount of mutated plants with excessive iron content, as well as industrial waste, until the body in the mutated area became mechanized.

Waves of spatial ripples emerged, and a figure wearing white magic robes walked out from the spatial ripples.

"Welcome, lady from the Arcane Eternal Star."

A man whose body was mostly mechanized bowed. He smiled very fake, and that gaze was unique to criminals, a gaze that lived today without tomorrow.

"Lead the way."

The woman wearing white magic robes spoke. The bowing criminal smiled even more falsely and turned to walk into an underground passage. This passage was built entirely of metal and was originally supposed to be a war bunker.

The criminal walking in front raised his left arm. A vulture landed on his left forearm. The criminal very naturally tore a piece of necrotic skin from his own shoulder and smiled as he fed it to the vulture.

Just entering the Dead Ash Bunker, a pungent sour smell came. That was the smell that only existed when processing certain industrial waste. A few hundred years ago, this was garbage, but now it was good stuff. The iron content inside was high enough, and plus, you wouldn't die after eating it, so it became a hot commodity.

The bunker had a heavy metal style, revealing a sense of technology amidst the filth. This was the evil consequence accumulated by the 'technological blowout'. The technology tree was pointed too far toward war. The wars of a few hundred years ago caused the technology tree here to develop toward war, rather than serving people's livelihood, industry, etc., which caused the current result.

Half an hour later, in a magnificent office, a pot-bellied man with a cigar between his fingers leaned on a leather chair. Once, these were all very common, but now they were extremely luxurious.

"You are planning to hire us to assassinate one of those madmen? Lady, we are indeed criminals, but we are normal people. As far as I know, those people over there are all madmen. That grand event not long ago was won by this person, right?"

"That's right."

"So, lady, in your eyes, are we people in the Land of Exile just bedbugs?"

"Hmm."

"Hahahaha, you actually admitted it. You people of the Arcane Eternal Star are not too hypocritical."

The pot-bellied leader laughed. His name was Poleru, and he was the ruler of the Land of Exile.

Suddenly, Poleru's expression turned cold.

"If it weren't for you coming today, even if you were from the Arcane Eternal Star, don't even think about leaving here."

"Giving you Black Maple tree branches."

"!"

Cracks appeared on the cigar at Poleru's fingertips.

"How many milligrams?"

"50 grams."

"50,000 milligrams! This......"

Poleru hesitated. The branches and leaves of the Black Maple tree were calculated in milligrams. This time, the guest actually paid in grams, which moved him.

"Deal. The thing I lack the most here is people. Besides this photo, is there any other information?"

"Everything is decided by you. I only look at the results. Use his head to exchange for the Black Maple tree branches."

The woman wearing white magic robes got up and walked out of the room. She didn't plan to stay here any longer. The elemental power here was about to dry up. As for her purpose in coming to the Land of Exile, it was very simple: let these people who were not afraid of death test the waters. As long as enough chips were put out, there was no one the criminals in the Land of Exile dared not kill, and no place they dared not go. In some extraordinary worlds outside the Void, people from the Arcane Eternal Star could not enter, and the consequences were very serious.

In the exclusive room, Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the sofa meditating, with Dragon Flash lying flat on his legs.

He had been considering one thing recently, which was why the assassination from the Arcane Eternal Star hadn't come yet. During the Strongest Contest, he and the Arcane Eternal Star had completely broken off.

Afterward, Su Xiao learned through Lilim that it was the Supreme One of the Arcane Eternal Star who had spoken, ordering the elimination of the last Law-Breaker.

Su Xiao had long thought that it was inevitable for him to be hostile to the Arcane Eternal Star. Spellcasters as strange as Shuge were very few. Other spellcasters all controlled natural elements to fight, and some powerful spellcasters would even devour natural elements to strengthen themselves, extend their lifespan, etc.

Controlling natural elements to cast magic abilities would affect elemental balance, and devouring natural elements would lead to the permanent disappearance of elements. Once the birth speed of elements was lower than the consumption speed of spellcasters, it would cause destructive results. Few people knew this.

The high-level spellcasters certainly knew this. They all had some control, and would even kill off some races that needed to devour natural elements to survive.

Su Xiao originally didn't care about these. He didn't live in the Void. Even if it exploded on the spot, it wasn't his business.

Unfortunately, the Arcane Eternal Star side wouldn't think so. They were worried about the revival of the Law-Breaker era, and then they would be in big trouble. This led to the natural hostility between the two sides.

Although Su Xiao wouldn't take the initiative to provoke the Arcane Eternal Star, the other side had already declared war. Of course, he wouldn't be afraid. At worst, it was just death; there was nothing to fear. He fought in various worlds and had always borne the risk of dying in battle.

Currently, there was no movement from the Arcane Eternal Star side. Su Xiao guessed that those people didn't dare to easily enter worlds interfered with by Paradise, whether it was Reincarnation Paradise or other paradises.

The thoughts in his mind stopped here. Su Xiao's eyes opened. The azure flame inside the 【Star Fall Furnace】 had gone out. This specialty from Apocalypse Paradise was scrapped. Whether the Boundary Line upgrade was successful was temporarily unknown. The 【Star Fall Furnace】 was used to upgrade equipment, while the Boundary Line was between equipment and main materials.

Opening the 【Star Fall Furnace】 on the coffee table, wisps of crystal fragment mist drifted out. The nine Epic-grade gems were scrapped. If the upgrade failed, the loss would not be small, but with Su Xiao's current strength, he could afford the loss.

Taking the Boundary Line out of the 【Star Fall Furnace】, the Boundary Line was wrapped around the line wheel, with a length of 195 meters.
