Chapter 2443: Caesar Summoning Technique

Yellow sand flew in the sky, blocking the sun for a moment before the wild wind blew it away.

The scorching sun roasted the desert from high above, making the sand somewhat hot. If an egg were placed on it, it would be half-cooked before long.

The caravan moved through the desert at a slow speed. Two "dwarf" slaves died this morning. They were originally soldiers of the Peru Kingdom. The full name of the Peru Kingdom was "Peru-sos," a coalition kingdom initially formed by three large dwarf tribes. After years of changes, power had been completely unified and strengthened, which was the current Peru-sos.

These Peruvian slaves were bought at a low price from the front line. After their "Holy Souls" were forcibly destroyed, they were sent to the Sand Flame Kingdom as slaves.

Through side-probing, Su Xiao learned an important piece of intelligence: whether it was the Sand Flame Kingdom or the Peru Kingdom, all soldiers under their command could obtain Holy Souls after passing the new recruit assessment.

This kind of Holy Soul was quite special. Although it was formed by the souls of transcendent creatures, these transcendent creatures were not wild but were raised in large quantities by the two kingdoms.

This kind of Holy Soul also had a name: Gray Soul. Gray Soul and Holy Soul had a big difference. For example, no matter how perfect Gray Soul was, it could only strengthen the physique and could not awaken transcendent abilities.

Holy Soul was different. Cultivating it could not only strengthen the physique but also, after reaching a certain level, awaken transcendent abilities based on the characteristics of the Holy Soul, one's own physique, one's own personality, etc.

Gray Soul was the symbol of soldiers. Gray Soul could not be cultivated, only gradually perfected. It would grow with time. After soldiers exceeded 50 years old, the Gray Soul in their bodies would rapidly decline and finally dissipate.

The difference lay in the transcendent creatures that formed the Holy Soul or Gray Soul. After being raised in large quantities, this kind of transcendent creature was like a tiger in a zoo. It looked like a tiger, but once it encountered a fierce tiger in the wild, it would be bitten to death in minutes.

Snap~

The whip sound was crisp. The bodies of several dozen Peruvian slaves trembled, and they moved forward in formation like they had lost their souls. They didn't end their own lives because they had a chance to be redeemed by Peru-sos. This depended on their luck, whether they could encounter Peruvian merchants in Esaba.

The two kingdoms were at war, but it hadn't reached the point of mutual closure. The two kingdoms had fought for too long. After negotiations time and again, merchants, civilians, etc., were allowed to enter the border areas of the two kingdoms. This significantly eased the life pressure of the civilians of the two kingdoms. The rulers couldn't do anything about it. Once public grievances were aroused, the war wouldn't need to continue.

Actually, fighting to this extent, both sides were somewhat used to it. Large-scale conflicts hadn't happened for a long time, entering a state of pseudo-ceasefire. However, small-scale wars were still common.

Su Xiao attached great importance to this intelligence. The hatred between Sand Flame people and Peruvians was not low, which led to merchants from the two kingdoms entering enemy countries and disappearing inexplicably. However, under profits ten or even dozens of times higher, many people took risks.

As the caravan moved forward for two hours, Su Xiao saw a large area of cacti on the sand in front. They were dense and could not be seen to the edge. This was clearly planted later.

"After passing the King of Tyrant Tree field, we'll arrive at Esaba."

The caravan leader looked ahead. A smile appeared on his face, weathered by wind and sand.

"Finally arriving."

"The King of Tyrant Trees is about to be eaten up. I hope that when we arrive at Esaba, this batch of dwarves can be sold for a good price. The beauties in Esaba are too hot... No, can't think about these yet."

The dozen people in the caravan began to pack the cargo boxes, tying them to both sides of the camels' bodies. Here, seasonings were packed, among which pepper was the most precious. Calculated by weight, the price of this spice was comparable to gold, and it was only produced in Peru.

Su Xiao didn't know the leader of this caravan. He was temporarily hired to be responsible for protecting the caravan's safety through the desert. Besides him, the caravan leader also hired four others. The desert was not safe; there were many transcendent creatures here. The reward for the escort was 26 gold coins.

The gold coins of this world were different from any gold Su Xiao had ever seen. The color was dark golden, and the density was at least 7.5 times that of ordinary gold.

Su Xiao also stood up, picked up a cargo box, patted the fine sand off it, and tied it to the camel.

"Set off."

The leading camel was led forward. The camel's hooves were very large, especially the lower edge, which was five times thicker than the leg, which could prevent it from sinking into the fine sand.

Stepping on the loose sand, Su Xiao patted the camel beside him. This camel was very obedient and began to follow the camel in front. Even though the weather was very hot, the camel was shivering a little.

Snap!

The whip sound was crisp. A merchant wearing a face veil was at the very back of the team. Hearing the whip sound, the Peruvian slaves bound in a row by handcuffs and shackles began to move forward. Their shirtless upper bodies were covered in fine sand, and their lips were white and cracked.

Bubu Wang ran past behind Su Xiao's legs, passed under the camel's belly, and performed a sand-ground fall + chin brake.

"Bubu."

"Woof."

Bubu Wang shook the sand off its body and ran behind Su Xiao, inexplicably happy.

As the caravan moved forward, Su Xiao opened the mission list to check.

【Main Mission: Esaba】

Difficulty Level: lv. 45

Mission Information: Arrive at Esaba and rendezvous with Nicholas Caesar.

Hint: Nicholas Caesar has arrived in this world for 32 natural days.

Mission Deadline: 2 days.

Mission Reward: 30,000 Paradise Coins

Mission Penalty: Forced execution.

Seeing the first part of the mission, Su Xiao's eyebrows raised. Caesar was clearly doing "well." Last time he dealt with Rule-Breakers, it was that guy who paved the way. The cowardly, treacherous Caesar often did the most dangerous things.

Although Caesar had no combat power, this didn't mean he had no ability. Caesar being sent out showed that this Rule-Breaker was very difficult to deal with.

Su Xiao took out the 【Warrior's Clan Badge】. This thing increased his initial status. As for the extent of the increase, it was temporarily unknown.

Warrior's Clan Badge + Title Refining Permission, Su Xiao basically knew how to deal with Rule-Breakers. As long as he managed it well, he didn't need to fight those Rule-Breakers head-on, nor did he need to scheme against them, but use a simpler, more desperate way for the Rule-Breakers to purge them all.

This was an opportunity, an opportunity to make a big profit. But before that, Su Xiao had to rendezvous with Caesar. Caesar was the guide, letting Su Xiao see that young Sand Emperor. If Su Xiao wasn't mistaken, the most basic chip to deal with Rule-Breakers was to obtain military power in the Sand Flame Kingdom.

As long as he took down part of the military power, with the ability of one of Su Xiao's titles, it wouldn't take long for him to have great power in the Sand Flame Kingdom. The situation in the Sand Flame Kingdom was very complicated. The young Sand Emperor, the stunningly beautiful Queen, and the rampant slavery revealed too many problems.

The Title Refining Permission was used to upgrade the War Lord title. This time, Su Xiao faced high risks. As a reward, Reincarnation Paradise rewarded him with five bottles of 【Honor Resurrection Potion】, as well as the Title Refining Permission.

The sound of wind came from afar. The people in the caravan let out a series of exclamations. Those Peruvian slaves all squatted down, holding their heads with both hands, their bodies trembling, muttering something in their mouths.

"Prepare for battle! This is... a sand sculpture?"

The caravan leader roared, and the three men and one woman in the caravan drew their curved blades and short spears.

"You're the sand sculpture, your whole family is sand sculptures."

Baja, who swooped down, cursed angrily.

"A... a talking sand sculpture."

The caravan leader was very confused, forgetting his fear for a moment.

"Damn it! I'm not a sand sculpture!"

Baja landed on Su Xiao's shoulder, his eyes full of anger.

"This sand sculpture... is it tamed by you?"
