Chapter 3021: Boss Faction

Brother No-Umbrella, wearing big shorts, sat in the sleeping bag. He might have been sleeping in a daze, subconsciously reaching his hand into his big shorts to scratch, and then even smelled his hand in front of his nose to refresh his mind.

"Eh? Bai Ye? Are you the guide this time?"

A smile appeared on Brother No-Umbrella's face. Just as he wanted to reminisce, he immediately became serious.

"Let me adapt for a while. I was still performing the main task normally in a Tier 6 world before. Bai Ye, what tier are you now?"

Brother No-Umbrella put on his clothes and put away the sleeping bag.

"Tier 8."

"Damn it, you're Tier 8 already? We were both Tier 2 before."

Brother No-Umbrella laughed heartlessly, while Nairoi and the little detective on the side couldn't laugh.

"In other words, this is a Tier 8 world?"

When Nairoi said this, her mood was exceptionally heavy. However, she didn't avoid Goddess · Shata Ye when she spoke. Goddess · Shata Ye seemed not to have heard, or rather, in her perspective, Nairoi was very strange, speaking in an unknown language, and then recovering after a while.

"Yes."

Getting Su Xiao's clear answer, Brother No-Umbrella, Nairoi, and the little detective all had solemn expressions.

Through preliminary interaction, Su Xiao learned the situation of the three people, Brother No-Umbrella. These three were all Tier 6 and formed a small group named 'Death Squad.'

Don't think this adventurer group name was ominous. For these three, 'dying' was a very normal thing. Or rather, 'dying' in the spiritual world was a normal thing; at critical moments, they needed to go 'die.'

The reason these three could handle unpredictable 'puzzle-solving events' was that the three people's abilities could cooperate with each other.

Brother No-Umbrella's 'Desperate Survival' talent evolved into 'Undying Will' after completing two awakenings. This wasn't a description, but truly 'undying.' Or rather, it was undying in the spiritual world.

As long as he entered the spiritual world, every time Brother No-Umbrella 'died,' he could carry out spiritual adsorption, absorbing the spiritual body that was about to dissipate back into the main body. The power of this talent lay in the fact that it could share this effect with three friendly targets, but they must sign a Covenant of Oath with Brother No-Umbrella. This was the key to being able to share.

Among the three, Nairoi's ability was sensing. In the spiritual world, her perception could discover many hidden details. Some items that others didn't notice but were of great significance would emit a faint light in her perception.

Finally, the little detective was responsible for puzzle-solving, reasoning, etc. Things that required using the brain were all done by him.

Spiritual death return, important item sensing, puzzle-solving and reasoning—these three performed their own duties and cooperated with each other, which indeed could solve many tricky problems. In the spiritual world, as long as the correct way was found, even very strong enemies could be dispelled. Note, it was dispelled, not killed.

"The highest we've solved before was the Reverse Flow Cave in a Tier 7 world. With my IQ, there's no problem this time either."

Brother No-Umbrella pointed to his head with his index finger, his eyes full of wisdom.

"A guy who forgets to bring paper when going to the toilet."

The little detective was very poisonous-tongued. Brother No-Umbrella didn't care; he had long been used to it.

"The situation is like this..."

Baha began to narrate the current situation to the three people, Brother No-Umbrella. The more they listened, the more shocked they became. This time it involved time.

"Time has stagnated? Since the problem doesn't come from here, it comes from the spiritual world connected to here. Enter, let's go die a few times first."

The little detective took out three metal chairs, as well as metal headbands, various wires, etc.

'Deep diving' in the dream world, which was entering the spiritual world, was actually not difficult. The node was on the sculpture on the inner side of the cathedral.

Brother No-Umbrella connected various wires on this sculpture, then returned to the side of the metal chair, put on the metal headband full of wires, and leaned back on the seat.

Hum~

A spiritual fluctuation spread. The three people sitting on the metal chairs all lost color in their pupils, closing their eyes and drooping their heads.

One hour later, Brother No-Umbrella was the first to open his eyes, followed by Nairoi. After a while, the little detective also returned.

"Daily death once."

"What kind of ghost place is that."

"Trouble, there are imitation-type projections over there."

The three looked at each other and shook their heads with bitter smiles. Brother No-Umbrella and the three had died once in the spiritual world just now. For the first entry, they focused on exploration, trying their best to avoid danger.

"This big shot named Bai Ye, who is the Great Sage? His unconscious projection is ridiculously strong in the spiritual world."

The little detective rubbed his forehead lightly. Just now, the three of them were cleaned up by the Great Sage's unconscious projection in the spiritual world.

After inquiring, Su Xiao learned that the spiritual world over there was exactly the same as the dream world, full of 'post-Gothic style' buildings. Dream residents didn't need to be ignored; the trouble was dream monsters.

A large part of the monsters in the spiritual world were people who had arrived in the dream world, projected over. For example, the Great Sage's projection—this projection had nothing to do with the Great Sage himself, and the appearance was also very different, looking very blurry.

To know the identity of these projections, one was observation, and the other was asking dream residents. The little detective knew it was the Great Sage's projection by relying on the latter.

"You mean, as long as people who have been here will be projected into the spiritual world?"

When Baha asked this, it really wanted to know if it had been projected.

"Not entirely correct. According to my observation, the projection is random. The spiritual world here is like a mirror. If you walk in front of the mirror, your outline will be 'recorded.' The Great Sage's projection is very blurry, composed of mist, with no details of facial features or clothing. The projection has no direct connection with the main body; the projection is an independently existing thing."

The little detective wasn't discouraged. He greeted Brother No-Umbrella and Nairoi, and the three entered the spiritual world again.

A somewhat funny scene appeared. The three began to 'die' one after another, and then returned to their main bodies. This was paving the way by relying on 'death.'

Five hours later, the little detective opened his eyes and stood up, raising his arms to cheer: "Great Sage dispelled successfully!"

"Found the mist-absorbing bird specifically for dealing with him, and was escaped by him in the mist for so long."

Nairoi also revealed a smile. The three of them dealt with the situation in the spiritual world as if they were playing a dungeon, relying on 'death' one after another to accumulate information.

Although the three of them wouldn't truly die, there were also situations they couldn't handle.

"Continue."

Brother No-Umbrella looked slightly fatigued. Dying in the spiritual world wasn't without a price; it would make his spirit gradually fatigued. Furthermore, every time he activated his talent ability, he had to consume a certain amount of life force.

This time, only more than ten minutes passed before the three woke up at the same time. The three of them looked at Goddess · Shata Ye together. Just now, they had encountered Goddess · Shata Ye's projection in the spiritual world.

Exploration continued, and the 'death' frequency of the three soared. The Shata Ye projection was very tricky and had a very strong desire to attack.

A few hours passed. Every time Brother No-Umbrella woke up, his gaze toward Goddess · Shata Ye became more autistic.

Finally, after nearly ten hours, the three led the Shata Ye projection into the Central Zhong Ta of the spiritual world, relying on the clock tower's time prison to trap Shata Ye's projection. It was unknown how long it could be trapped.

Just when the three were beaming with joy, they encountered the old knight's projection in the spiritual world. After dying seven or eight times, the little detective almost shed tears.

"Nice, succeeded again."

The little detective was very happy. Just like a few hours ago, they led the old knight's projection into the Central Zhong Ta and trapped it with the clock tower's time prison.

A few minutes later, the three sat on the metal chairs with their eyes closed. Suddenly, the three opened their eyes at the same time and touched their necks.

Seeing this scene, Baha said: "No need to say, already know whose projection you encountered. Acidic and refreshing, right."

Baha laughed unscrupulously. Brother No-Umbrella, Nairoi, and the little detective all looked at Su Xiao with complex gazes. Just now, they had encountered Su Xiao's projection in the spiritual world. That projection was a humanoid composed of blood energy, holding a long blade.

"It's not just acidic and refreshing; it's almost desperate. Big shot, what exactly do you do? Your projection has hunting characteristics. There are one good and one bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"

The little detective leaned weakly on the seat, his whole body soft.

"Bad news."

Su Xiao wasn't surprised that his projection appeared in the spiritual world, and that projection had no direct connection with him.

"The bad news is that your projection, big shot, can instantly move + super high-speed afterimage sprint without limit in the spiritual world. We just saw the blood-colored afterimage, and our heads came down."

The little detective sighed. What to do if the teammate is too strong, leading to being unable to beat the teammate's projection? Waiting online, very urgent.

"However, there is also good news. Your projection, big shot, is too ferocious. Except for the Great Sage, Shata Ye, and the old knight, other dream monsters were all slaughtered by your projection, not a single one left."

The little detective's smile was exceptionally complex, and the smile was also very reluctant.

Standing beside the door of the cathedral, Su Xiao looked at Goddess · Shata Ye. Shata Ye pressed the Repentance Sickle against the door, and the two opening metal doors dissolved together. Without Goddess · Shata Ye and the Great Knight as dream guardians, no one could open the door.

The war sickle in Goddess · Shata Ye's hand waved, and a Dream Gate opened. She was the guardian of the dream and could open a door connecting to the outside world anywhere in the dream world. According to Su Xiao's request, this led to Madam Snake's wooden house.

Opening this Dream Gate was left for Brother No-Umbrella and the three to hide from the reset of the dream world. These three wanted to solve the time stagnation problem of the dream world, which couldn't be done in a short while.

Su Xiao wanted to leave, not because Brother No-Umbrella and the three looked at him with increasingly autistic gazes, but because he was going to deal with a matter.

Su Xiao walked into the Dream Gate and returned to Madam Snake's wooden house. At Su Xiao's invitation, Madam Snake and he clinked glasses and drank a glass of fine wine.

This time Yueling didn't say she wanted to drink. Her perception was frantically warning, and even a stinging sensation in her perception appeared.

The dream world side was roughly dealt with, just waiting for Brother No-Umbrella and the three to send good news.

Su Xiao took out a pale skull the size of a fist from his storage space. On it were black and bright yellow lines. This represented one thing: the Insect Lord · Hash he had created before hadn't died yet.

Su Xiao wanted to find Insect Lord · Hash. This pale skull in his hand, which was the residual container, was actually also a part of Insect Lord · Hash. Using this thing as a bargaining chip to let the other party do one thing shouldn't be a problem.

If this matter succeeded, then Su Xiao would have more confidence in competing for space-time power.

Besides Insect Lord · Hash, Su Xiao had another force, coming from the Kodo School. He had given Bishop Noah a notebook for free before, which recorded research on Ancient God energy, with only half of the core recorded.

At the moment, Su Xiao took out the other half. In return, the Kodo School side had to send enough powerful combat power to assist Su Xiao in completing one thing.

During the space-time power transaction, Apocalypse Paradise and Sanctuary Paradise would each teleport a small team into this world, among which there would definitely be Tier 8 top-tier combat power contractors or battle angels, etc.

Undoubtedly, these two small teams were hard to deal with. However, after some preparation, the lineup on Su Xiao's side was more powerful. The lineup on his side was:

Su Xiao himself, Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, Beini.

Temporary assistants included:

King's Guard · Yueling.

Insect Lord · Hash.

Dream Guardian · Old Knight.

Goddess · Shata Ye.

Kodo School · Heretic Execution Team (twelve people).

If this still wasn't enough, it didn't matter. Su Xiao would summon 【Axe's Hatred】, which was Big Axe Brother.

The Big Axe Brother summoned this time would be boosted by Su Xiao's real intelligence attribute and soul strength. In other words, the higher Su Xiao's soul strength, the stronger Big Axe Brother would be. At this moment, Su Xiao's soul strength had reached 470 points.

This was the lineup Su Xiao prepared to compete for space-time power. One could imagine that during the space-time power transaction, the scene would definitely be very lively. If the enemy had relatively active guys, then he could experience what it felt like to be surrounded and hammered by a group of big bosses. ===== CHAPTER 3022 =====
