Chapter 2831: Refusing Reformation

~9 min read 1,757 words

As soon as the pillar of fire appeared, everyone who had been besieging Eunice fled to the surroundings. This was something planned long ago.

Su Xiao had no friendship with the Healing Church or the Magic Association. The main reason these people were willing to help was not just because of interests and promises, but also because of this siege plan.

Representatives from both sides had personally touched the 【Sun's Fury: Apollo】 and confirmed the power of Apollo.

Setting up a siege plan on this basis, as long as there were no deviations, there wouldn't be too many casualties. This was why the Black Smoke God Envoy and the Masked Man, Bath, were willing to bring people here.

Especially Bath; he had just led people to seize the primordial soul energy. Without sufficient benefits and a perfect plan, he wouldn't have brought the already exhausted Occultists here.

Su Xiao needed enough combat strength to suppress Eunice. As long as this point was met, everything else was simple.

If they had fought Eunice head-on today, at least four-fifths of the people present would have died.

As everyone was running toward the surroundings, the three-layer defense in the rear shattered, and the solar flames spread out. Because it had already erupted once in a pillar shape, the solar flames stopped after spreading less than a kilometer.

The Black Smoke God Envoy and the Masked Man, Bath, looked at the solar flames in front of them, their eyes full of astonishment.

Both the Black Smoke God Envoy and the Masked Man, Bath, secretly decided one thing: the Black Tower's Bai Ye was also a natural disaster level; they could not let him go to the Eastern Continent.

If the Western Continent was a giant beast that couldn't be killed or smashed, then the Eastern Continent was a delicate beauty. It was not only a paradise for civilians but also a paradise for Tier 7 mid-tier powerhouses.

There, you wouldn't encounter desperadoes while walking at night. At first glance, these desperadoes looked like small fry, but they could actually slaughter Tier 7 upper-tier contractors. This was the City of Smoke.

The solar flames gradually subsided. A figure stood up from within the solar flames. She stepped forward, but after taking just one step, her left leg turned into charred charcoal, then burned into ashes.

"I will not... die here, absolutely not."

The figure in the flames constantly regenerated her body, only for her limbs to be burned into ashes again, stumbling forward within the solar flames.

*Hiss~, hiss~*

Every step Eunice took, white steam appeared beneath her feet. This was not smoke or water vapor, but the flesh and blood of her feet being burned into a gaseous state.

A pendant was embedded in Eunice's chest, beating at the same frequency as her heart. This was an Immortal-grade piece of equipment. Without the core ability of this Immortal-grade equipment, she would have already died just now.

After Eunice regenerated her limbs dozens of times, she finally walked out of the range covered by the solar flames.

With a *thud*, Eunice knelt on the ground. Her hands supported her on the ground, and she vomited purple blood with a *wow*. As soon as this blood touched the ground, due to the high temperature it carried, it burned the ground, making a hissing sound.

Gazes looked over from the front. Eunice, kneeling on the ground, raised her head to meet these gazes. She saw Su Xiao, holding his long blade, standing at the very front. The Masked Man, Bath, the Red-Eyed Girl, the Black Smoke God Envoy, and others were in the second row. Further back were the clerics and Occultists, either standing or sitting.

"Ha, haha, you're all here. I am very evil; the Healing Church should lock me up and reform me."

Eunice found it difficult to even crawl up now, let alone fight.

"Child, your soul is too evil; we are powerless."

The Black Smoke God Envoy spoke with a smile, his gaze kind.

*Zing. *

A slash glow swept across Eunice's neck. Her head flew up, yet her heart was filled with wild joy.

With a *clatter*, Eunice's body turned into thousands of small spiders, scattering in all directions like a tide.

Su Xiao's long blade stabbed into the ground. Blue Steel Shadow energy surged toward the surroundings, and blood energy erupted simultaneously. One by one, the small spiders exploded.

A dozen seconds later, in the ruins a hundred meters away, a small spider hidden in a stone crack quietly crawled out. Eunice's consciousness was residing in this small spider. After she stared at Su Xiao a hundred meters away with her spider eyes, she crawled toward the distance.

She wanted revenge. As long as the mission failed, she could return to the Apocalypse Paradise while bearing the mission penalty and recover her body. After that, she would focus on one thing: coming back to take revenge on Su Xiao, using all her means. Spiders were animals that held grudges.

*Tap, tap, tap~*

It seemed something sharp was tapping on the rock. Hearing this sound, Eunice controlled the small spider to stop and looked up toward the top.

Bahamut landed on a piece of granite, tapping the rock with its claw tip. Those sharp eagle eyes were watching the small spider among the rubble.

Eunice's first thought was that the enemy had become very large. She then realized it was she who had become small. A chill appeared in the depths of her heart. She could only hope that the enemy would suddenly become brain-dead and ignore this weak little spider.

Bahamut pounced, grabbing the small spider in its claws.

"No, no, wait, don't tell me you're going to..."

Eunice's consciousness was screaming. She felt that her current experience was somewhat fantastical. She hadn't died under Su Xiao's blade, yet she was about to be crushed to death by the opponent's subordinate? Crushed to death like a little bug?

"No!"

*Squish~*

Purple blood seeped out between the eagle claws. Eunice was crushed to death by Bahamut. This was no coincidence. With Bahamut's eyesight, when it was high in the sky, it could see even a small bug on the ground several kilometers away clearly.

【Prompt: You have killed Some Qiyuezhe 20**20.】

【You have obtained 5 points of Samsara Paradise Merit (the single-kill acquisition limit for contractors).】

【You have obtained Scarlet Medal x82.】

【You have obtained Scarlet Card x1.】

Su Xiao flipped through the prompts. He hadn't obtained 【Stronger's Remnant Glow】 this time. Eunice was stronger than Heavenly Punishment. Judging by this, he should only obtain 【Stronger's Remnant Glow】 when fighting a Tier 8 technique-type contractor, and the opponent's technique-type ability had to be strong enough.

Bahamut flew over, holding a Scarlet Card in its claws. After Su Xiao took it, he discovered that there was a spider imprint on this Scarlet Card.

【Detected that this is a Scarlet Card dropped by an enemy contractor.】

【Yes/No to open the Scarlet Card (★★★★★★★★).】

【If you choose to open, you can make the following choices.】

1. Obtain 10% of the soul coins held by the enemy before death.

2. Obtain one piece of the enemy's equipment (random draw).

3. Obtain 3 items from the enemy's storage space (random draw, all are high-value items).

Seeing these prompts, Su Xiao's impression of Scarlet Cards changed greatly. The Scarlet Cards of Tier 8 contractors were different. If he was lucky, the gains from opening this thing would be very high.

The guaranteed reward was 10% of the soul coins held by the enemy before death, which was the most stable. If he wanted to gamble for something bigger, he would open equipment. If he wanted to gamble for the biggest, it would be the 3 items in the storage space.

Capable contractors would store some high-value items in their storage space. For example, Su Xiao's storage space contained 【Alchemy Secret Tome】, 【Tree's Gift】, 【Book of Doors】, 【Time Hourglass】, 【First Generation Law-Extinguishing Finger Bone】, etc.

Su Xiao felt that Eunice's storage space should also contain similar high-value items. This time, he didn't need to worry about becoming a wholesale merchant of daily necessities. The three randomly drawn items would only be high-value items, but how this high-value item was defined was unclear.

Arriving at Twilight Street, which was covered in sparks and magma, Su Xiao took out the temporary coordinate and placed it into the last node. 10 minutes later, the temporary coordinate was successfully set up.

【Announcement (Tree of the Void): The Samsara Paradise side has successfully occupied four nodes!】

【Announcement (Tree of the Void): The Samsara Paradise side will proceed with the World Core stripping.】

【Announcement (Tree of the Void): The world coordinate setting point has been selected. Samsara Paradise contractors must arrive at this area within 3 natural days. Contractors from the other three parties can only enter this area after 3 natural days to prevent the Samsara Paradise side from setting up the world coordinate.】

【Announcement (Tree of the Void): If the Samsara Paradise side successfully sets up the world coordinate, this World Contest will be won by the Samsara Paradise side.】

Su Xiao glanced at the announcement and continued to flip down.

【Prompt: Public World Communication Platform (Tier 7) has been opened.】

【The Hunter is Tier 7 and can continue to participate in the subsequent World Contest.】

【Prompt (Tree of the Void): Detected that Samsara Paradise Some Qiyuezhe 13013 is about to participate in the subsequent World Contest. Checking...】

【Some Qiyuezhe 13013 is Tier 7. Check passed.】

【Second check in progress...】

【Some Qiyuezhe 13013's brand has no abnormalities. Check passed.】

【Final ruling in progress...】

【Ruling passed.】

Seeing these prompts from the Tree of the Void, Su Xiao frowned. He felt that he was 80-90% likely on the Tree of the Void's blacklist.

After the Samsara Paradise determined that he could continue to participate in the World Contest, the Tree of the Void, as the notary, checked him three times before counting him as passed.

As for why he was on the blacklist, it was 80-90% likely because last time, during the survival trial on the Primordial Continent, he summoned the Zerg, almost flattening that world. Now, the Zerg girl, Jila, was still there "freeloading."

【The Hunter has successfully set up 4 temporary coordinates. Your War Mission: First Ring (Completed).】

【Detected that the enemy has set up 2 temporary coordinates. Coordinates are being extracted. These temporary coordinates will be converted into rewards, and the Hunter will obtain these rewards.】 ===== CHAPTER 2832 =====
