Chapter 3114

~10 min read 1,849 words

Seeing the information on the talent mission, a very ominous feeling surged in Su Xiao's heart. As a Law Destroyer, he naturally knew what a Silver Moon Wolf was; they were allies of the Law Destroyers. There were seven known Silver Moon Wolves, and all of them had already fallen.

The mission content was to have Su Xiao deal with a Silver Moon Wolf. His first reaction was disbelief. His Reincarnation Brand was Tier 8; even though his strength was already very strong among Tier 8s, there was still a not-insignificant gap to the echelon of the Silver Moon Wolf.

Seeing that this was a Silver Moon Wolf that had already fallen, Su Xiao felt that this mission was not impossible to complete. At the very least, that Silver Moon Wolf would not summon the 'Moon of Radiance'; otherwise, it would be impossible to deal with.

Su Xiao had a doubt in his heart: why did this Silver Moon Wolf die many years ago? With the strength of the Alliance world, a Silver Moon Wolf was an invincible existence in this world.

If this Silver Moon Wolf were still alive, even if all the combat power in this world were gathered together to fight it, after one or two exchanges, there would basically be no survivors. The 'Moon of Radiance' was the nemesis of human-sea tactics.

Su Xiao had a piece of equipment related to the Silver Moon Wolf, named 【Silver Moon Blade】. Although it was called a blade, it was a ring, and it was one of the pieces of equipment he used most often. After receiving the talent mission, the introduction of this equipment actually changed.

【Silver Moon Blade】

Origin: Overlord Creature · Silver Moon Wolf

Quality: Overlord Level · Growth Type

Category: Ring (Secondary Slot)

Durability: 30/30

Equipment Requirement: True Intelligence 150 points or above, male, has not mastered magic-type abilities.

Equipment Debuff: Wearing this ring, there is a probability of temporary Moon Wolf transformation during combat (energy invasion will be received during Moon Wolf transformation).

Hint: Applying 'Moon Blade' consumes 1000 mana points or other body energy.

Hint: The Moon Blade effect can last for 20 minutes.

Hint: The Moon Blade effect cannot be frequently applied to a weapon; this behavior will cause the weapon's durability to drop significantly faster.

Equipment Effect 2: Ring · Secondary Slot (Passive), wearing this ring will not occupy a ring equipment slot.

Rating: 1000 points.

Growth Condition: Arrive at the burial ground of the Silver Moon Wolf and offer fresh meat (flesh of extraordinary creatures is not required).

Hint: There were seven Silver Moon Wolves in total, and all have died.

Brief: On that cold, lonely ice field, you once guarded for a thousand years, yet you ended up in such a state. There is no name praised by the world, no monument standing in the world. Your remnant body is dominated by the power of the abyss, your consciousness is as wild as a beast. You have become a disaster, devouring what you once guarded, trampling on the alliance you once swore to follow to the death. But, this is absolutely not your original wish.

Price: Cannot be sold.

Su Xiao looked at the 【Silver Moon Blade】 in his hand. If it didn't involve the former alliance relationship with the Silver Moon Wolf, leading a large number of extraordinary beings to surround and attack it would seem to be a safer choice.

Su Xiao felt that the real situation might not be like that. The mission difficulty was Lv.???; under the reduction of his Law Destroyer identity, the mission difficulty was Lv. 78.

Su Xiao estimated that if human-sea tactics were used this time, there was a high probability of failure. The Silver Moon Wolf's consciousness was already chaotic and would not hold back because of the Law Destroyer identity. The problem likely lay in the fact that a Law Destroyer could exempt themselves from a certain ability of the Silver Moon Wolf at the current stage.

Even if he wanted to bring people to surround and attack it now, it was not very likely. Kingsley had just left. If a large number of extraordinary beings from the Institution were transferred at this time, organizations in the weaker echelon like the Secret Guild, Pleasure House, and Ascetic Monastery would likely come out to stir up trouble.

These street rats didn't care about the situation in the Southern Continent; they just wanted to rise. The more chaotic the situation, the happier they were.

Su Xiao had the Institution under his command; he certainly didn't want the situation to become chaotic. The main mission required closing the Abyss Hole, and there was no news yet.

There was no doubt that the abyss energy was related to the Abyss Hole. Going to the Far South Cold Land this time might lead to finding clues about the Abyss Hole.

He had to complete the talent mission as soon as possible, after which he could concentrate on dealing with the Abyss Hole. Besides this matter, the traces of the rule-breaker didn't need to be ignored for now.

Ever since he first entered the world, that rule-breaker had actively approached Su Xiao once, and after that, he never appeared again, as if he had evaporated from the world.

Su Xiao walked toward the outside of the research institute. He had to head to the Far South Cold Land immediately. Although there might be variables in this talent mission, the overall content was very clear: kill the Silver Moon Wolf that had absorbed the power of the abyss.

One hour later, Su Xiao boarded a train to the Far South Cold Land. This freight train had 30 cars and was responsible for transporting 'coal', traveling back and forth between Gaman City and the Iron Tower Mine. Don't think this was an ordinary freight train; this thing was a steel beast.

The Iron Tower Mine was located in the Far South Cold Land. The labor costs and transportation costs for mining coal there were extremely high. The 'coal' produced there was called sulfur coal. Please note that this thing was fundamentally not the same type as coal; it was an extraordinary resource.

This season, because the Far South Cold Land was too cold, coal mining hadn't been carried out for 2 months. The steel beast Su Xiao was riding at this moment was powered by sulfur coal, and the ramming horn on the front of the train, which looked like a sharp shovel, appeared exceptionally majestic.

The door of the carriage was open. Because the train was moving too fast, a strong wind pressure blew in from the door. Su Xiao sat cross-legged in front of the carriage door, holding a small metal wine bottle in his hand, admiring the snow scene outside.

Woo! Woo-woo!

A deafening whistle came from the front of the train, and then the entire steel beast shook. This was breaking the ice while crossing the bridge.

If one looked down from the sky, one could see a very spectacular scene: the steel beast rushed onto a metal bridge. This bridge was built relying on a mountain wall, and on the other side was a bottomless deep valley.

Because no steel beast had gone to transport sulfur coal for two months, the metal bridge was covered with accumulated ice. At this moment, this steel beast broke through the ice and sped forward with an unstoppable momentum. While roaring, ice chips splashed everywhere, and huge chunks of ice fell into the bottomless deep valley below.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's dog head poked out of the carriage door, opening its mouth to eat the shaved ice that splashed over. But just at this moment, a chunk of ice the size of a millstone flew toward it.

"Woo~"

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang flew back, rotating its body in a spiral position. It squatted on the ground, stunned.

After traveling for nearly 16 hours, everywhere Su Xiao's gaze reached was a vast expanse of white. When the train slowed down and finally stopped, Su Xiao arrived at a silver-clad station.

This was Iron Tower Town. The number of civilians accounted for less than one-eighth of the total population, and the rest were garrison troops.

Su Xiao didn't meet with the colonel stationed locally; he was just passing through this place.

After leaving Iron Tower Town, Su Xiao looked at Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. In this extremely cold place, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was so smart; it lay down on the snow, meaning that it had a concussion from being hit by the giant ice and could no longer perform physical labor.

A moment later, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had a rope tied around its body, pulling a snow sled behind it, running fast in the snow.

Su Xiao only brought Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and Baham this time. As for Hunting Tide, she was at the office in York City; the Death Holy Grail needed someone to guard it.

Sitting on the snow sled, Su Xiao took out a map from his bosom. This was a map of more than half of the Far South Cold Land. More than half of the area was painted with red graffiti, representing that this was an inaccessible area.

The Silver Moon Wolf Su Xiao was looking for was in this area. Fortunately, the Silver Moon Wolf upheld its habits from before it died and would not leave this ice field.

Before his eyes was an endless snow scene. The cold wind brushed past both sides of his cheeks like knives. After walking for about a few hours, large patches of light red spots appeared on the snow ahead, as if a blood rain had fallen.

Su Xiao signaled Xiang Bubu to stop. He got off the snow sled and walked on foot. He didn't walk far before he saw a not-so-conspicuous protrusion on the snow.

He went up to clear the accumulated snow on the protrusion and found that this was a rough stone slab, on which was written:

"We plotted against the noblest existence in the most despicable way. All retribution is deserved. It could have slaughtered everyone, yet it didn't do so — Athos Baken."

Su Xiao continued to walk forward. Every few dozen meters he walked, he could find a stone tablet. Most of the content held regret, except for the last one, which was also the tallest stone tablet. The content on this stone tablet was:

"The territory bathed in my glory all submits to me; there is no need for beasts to guard it — Emperor Taiya."

Su Xiao glanced at this stone tablet and continued to walk forward. Amu behind him kicked the stone tablet over, and Baham even spat on it.
