Chapter 3107

After checking the content of the second ring of the main quest, Su Xiao felt a very bad feeling in his heart. The completion of the first ring of his main quest was too high, already exceeding the limit.

Because his initial status in this world was too high, the initial difficulty of the main quest was very high, requiring the elimination or containment of one S-grade dangerous object and two A-grade dangerous objects.

When Su Xiao was dealing with the dangerous object s-173 (Calamity Bell), as long as he took one wrong step, he would lose his life on the spot. This was still a dangerous object ranked after 150. The lethality of S-grade danger was truly too tyrannical.

According to the task requirements, Su Xiao could have a medium-to-high task evaluation after dealing with one S-grade dangerous object ranked around 190, plus two A-grade dangerous objects, without needing to take risks to deal with the dangerous object s-173 (Calamity Bell).

The problem was that dangerous objects were not easy to find, and he didn't want to continue waiting, so he took the risk to deal with the dangerous object s-173 (Calamity Bell).

The problem lay here. The Calamity Bell involved the mermaid, and then Su Xiao began to compete with Kingsley for the mermaid.

As things developed to now, the dangerous object s-173 (Calamity Bell) actually became the most trashy dangerous object Su Xiao had ever dealt with, which led to an explosive task completion, and the subsequent tasks changed.

Seal the Abyss Hole. What simple and clear task information. What is this thing? Where is it? What clues are there? None at all.

This reminded Su Xiao of the Apocalypse Paradise task he received in the last world. One ring of that main quest almost gave him satellite positioning to tell him where the Goddess Shataye was.

The tasks of Apocalypse Paradise were indeed easy to complete, but the subsequent gains were too lagging. That was really just looking for the Goddess Shataye, and there was nothing else after that.

Compared to that main quest mode, Su Xiao preferred the main quest of Reincarnation Paradise. Although the prompts were too simple, they could involve many secrets. More secrets meant that during the process of completing the task, one could obtain richer gains.

Su Xiao even felt that the main quest of Apocalypse Paradise was: the task rewards were just those, don't think too much, just wash up and sleep after completing the task, don't die.

And the tasks of Reincarnation Paradise were: the higher the task difficulty, the richer the rewards to the point of being heart-moving. Compared to these heart-moving task rewards, the gains brought during the completion of the task were greater. If the task completer's ability was strong, the next ring of the task would instantly open hell mode, the difficulty would increase explosively, and the rewards would also increase explosively.

Su Xiao looked at the Death Holy Grail on the stone platform. According to the confidential files of the Institution, 817 years ago, the death domain once covered one-quarter of the continent's area. Within the range, only a very small number of intelligent creatures survived by luck, with a probability lower than 0.0001%.

Wanting to walk into the death domain, pick up the Holy Grail, and drink the water liquid inside, perhaps only the chosen one could do this.

Su Xiao never thought he was the chosen one. He was unlucky when he had nothing to do. Chosen one, my ass. If he could have good luck for a period of time, his mood would be very good.

Not having the qualifications of the chosen one didn't matter. Su Xiao had technology, which was the crystallization of human wisdom. All living things entering the death domain would die? It didn't matter. Machines without life wouldn't die.

Su Xiao took out an exploration vehicle with a length of about two meters from the storage space, took the remote control, and manipulated the exploration vehicle to drive into the death domain.

Hiss~

The surface of the exploration vehicle seemed to have decayed, becoming rusty and mottled, and the wheels creaked when they turned.

Manipulating the exploration vehicle to bring it in front of the Death Holy Grail, a metal probe tube extended, submerged into the water liquid of the Death Holy Grail, and sucked the water liquid inside into the storage tank. When the exploration vehicle drove back, it had completely rusted into an iron lump.

Seeing this, Su Xiao took out the second exploration vehicle, drove into the death domain, and dragged the first exploration vehicle out of the death domain.

Su Xiao didn't take the storage tank out of the exploration vehicle at the first time. On this exploration vehicle, he sensed a strong death aura. Fortunately, this kind of death aura was drifting away rapidly.

Waiting for a morning, Su Xiao sensed that the strong death aura on the exploration vehicle had dissipated. He wrapped his left hand in a crystal layer and pressed his right hand on the hilt of the blade at his waist. If there was anything wrong, he would slash off his left arm.

The fingertips of Su Xiao's wrapped crystal layer touched the exploration vehicle. No accident occurred. He pulled open the storage tank and poured the water liquid inside into a crystal bottle containing potions.

As long as he drank this water liquid, Su Xiao's third talent could be temporarily awakened. At that time, by using 【Ancient Will】, he might be able to permanently awaken the third talent.

Su Xiao didn't drink the water liquid immediately. He took Bubu Wang, Amu, and Baha to leave the containment vault, took the elevator, and arrived at the secret room on the third floor of the office.

Pushing open the door of the secret room, Su Xiao went downstairs and sat behind the office desk. He had a very key thing to do.

Picking up the phone on the table and dialing, the sweet voice of the operator girl came. Through the operator, Su Xiao contacted Director Vic.

"Bai Ye, what's the matter."

Director Vic's voice revealed fatigue. Director Vic would only use this tone when chatting with acquaintances. Outside, Director Vic was a gentle yet majestic middle-aged man. Recently, the other party's hairline was getting higher and higher, and there were quite a few annoying things.

"I contained the mermaid here."

Su Xiao glanced at the wooden box on the table. The mermaid's residual ash was inside.

"I already knew about this last night. You called, have you already dealt with the mermaid?"

"Yes."

"For this kind of thing, we all respect your choice. Now that I already know about this, you are formally notifying me."

Director Vic's tone was calm. The other party said this, meaning he had already understood Su Xiao's meaning. Apparently, he had already guessed what Su Xiao was going to do with the mermaid's residual ash in his hand.

Director Vic would become a witness to this matter. Even if Su Xiao was caught by someone when using the mermaid's residual ash, Director Vic would also strongly support him. The containment agency was actually not rigid. Regarding the use of the remains of dangerous objects, they chose to turn a blind eye, otherwise, the 【Rift Kill】 gloves wouldn't have appeared. That thing, Aiqi was still using it now.

"By the way, before the mermaid died, she attracted the Death Holy Grail. What I am containing now is the Death Holy Grail."

"This is a 'surprise'. The Mayor of Youke City contacted me last night, and my old friend nagged me until the second half of the night. If he heard this news, he should be very 'surprised', right."

Director Vic smiled, not worried that the Death Holy Grail would have problems with Su Xiao.

The call with Director Vic was very brief. The benefit of working with an old schemer was reflected at this time. There was no need to explain things too clearly.

Su Xiao contacted the operator girl again. The person he wanted to contact this time didn't know if they had already returned to the Southern Alliance.

The phone was connected, but the location reported by the operator girl made Su Xiao feel surprised. Thinking about it carefully, it was actually normal. That person was dealing with the aftermath of the mermaid incident.

On the phone, the other side didn't speak, and Su Xiao was also silent. This silence lasted for nearly half a minute.

"You contacted me, do you want to ask if I'm dead? It's a pity, after taking that kick from you, I'm not dead yet."

Kingsley's voice came from the receiver. That's right, Su Xiao was talking to Kingsley, with whom he had been in a life-and-death battle not long ago. The other party had already returned to the Southern Alliance by some means.

"I built a containment vault in Youke City."

"Within expectations. You contacted me this time, are you prepared to?"

"Make a deal."

"A deal?"

Kingsley coughed lightly while speaking, his voice even weaker. On his side, begging for mercy could be vaguely heard. Kingsley continued to ask: "Is it a deal about the mermaid."

"Yes."

"What do I have to pay?"

"The method to manage that kind of golden lightning."

"Impossible. Neither you nor I can manage that lightning. I am just attracting that lightning."

"Then trade the secret method of attracting lightning."

"Is it that simple? It's useless for you to attract that lightning. I have the Black Emperor to use that lightning to hurt the enemy. You, this unlucky guy, will only be struck by lightning after attracting it. Don't think about it. Unlucky people will be very troublesome after attracting lightning. Moreover, just for the secret method of attracting lightning, you are willing to take out the mermaid? That's the mermaid's residual ash, right? It's a pity that such a rare dangerous object was dealt with by you. It will take more than ten years to appear again."

Kingsley's tone only had regret, not anger. He had indeed fought Su Xiao to the death, but no one stipulated that only he, Kingsley, was allowed to kill enemies, and others couldn't kill him. In Kingsley's view, battle was like this: either live or die.

"In other words, you refused?"

"Of course... No, let's meet. I'll bring the secret method of attracting lightning, and you bring the mermaid's residual ash. There happens to be something I want to tell you about the 'Taiya Civilization'. How much do you know? It's inconvenient to say too much on the phone. Let's talk after meeting. The location is the Alliance's Council Hall. I'm here now, and I've already slaughtered several councilors."

With a click, Kingsley hung up the phone. Su Xiao's previous identity had killed an Alliance councilor, and Kingsley was even more ruthless this time, killing six. This time, there was no possibility for the Alliance Council to perform any more brain-dead operations.

Su Xiao picked up the crystal bottle on the table. The water liquid inside would expire within 14 hours at most after leaving the Death Holy Grail. This point had been tested many times by the experimental personnel of the Institution.

Uncorking the bottle, Su Xiao drank the water liquid in the crystal bottle in one gulp. The icy feeling of the water liquid seemed to make Su Xiao's chest and abdomen clear, as if a muffled thunder had exploded in his ears.

The natural elements near Su Xiao all gathered toward him, drifting around him.

Directly above Youke City, a vortex composed of natural elements with various characteristics was stirring.

Inside the office, the natural elements around Su Xiao were dense to the point of being visible to the naked eye. Because it was only a temporary awakening of the third talent, it was completed in less than ten minutes. He temporarily obtained a talent ability, and this talent was named: Element King.
