Chapter 3142

Su Xiao opened the quest list, and the content of the fourth ring of the main quest appeared before his eyes.

【Main Quest: Seeking (Fourth Ring)】

Difficulty Level: Lv. 78

Quest Brief: Find the Supreme Worm.

Quest Deadline: 10 natural days.

Quest Reward: Eighth-tier deep recovery permission (one time).

Quest Penalty: Forced execution.

Seeing the content of this quest, even Su Xiao felt it was tricky. The situation on the Western Continent, S-001's failed foresight, and the fourth ring of the main quest all pointed to one truth: the Supreme Worm was still alive and hiding somewhere in the world.

The fourth ring of the main quest was a search-type quest, which didn't involve much risk of combat because Su Xiao only needed to find the Supreme Worm, and the quest would be completed. In other words, just searching, without involving much combat, had a difficulty as high as Lv. 78. How difficult it was to find the Supreme Worm could be imagined from this.

The quest reward was also very generous. Frequently fighting with strong enemies, Su Xiao's body inevitably left subtle, unrecoverable injuries, and the eighth-tier deep recovery permission (one time) could help him solve this.

Regarding finding the Supreme Worm, Su Xiao needed a helper, and Kingsley was the perfect partner.

The content given in the quest brief was too simple, totaling only four characters excluding punctuation. Su Xiao's solution was to use S-001 to complete this matter. S-001 could tamper with someone's future. Of course, that person would also have to pay a price, even affecting the people around them.

Assume someone uses S-001 to tamper with their own future, making themselves encounter the Supreme Worm by chance in a day. Given the Supreme Worm's power, the price required to achieve this would be extremely tragic.

But what if there was a compromise? First, assume the Supreme Worm is currently acting by attaching to some host.

In this case, someone uses S-001 to tamper with the future, making themselves and the Supreme Worm's host stay in a certain city within the next 1 to 5 days.

With such a wide range of possibilities, and indirectly involving the Supreme Worm, plus the fact that the Supreme Worm was no longer as powerful as when it fought the Moon Wolf, multiple factors combined, the price required to use S-001 would reach an acceptable level.

Su Xiao didn't need to know the exact location of the Supreme Worm and its host. With the intelligence channels he controlled, he only needed a very general range to find the Supreme Worm.

To achieve all this, one had to use S-001. As the Institution's Legion Commander, Su Xiao absolutely could not use S-001. This dangerous object had extraordinary significance for the entire containment organization.

If it were discovered by Institution members that he actively used S-001, it wouldn't be a matter of joint impeachment, but all the Transcendents of the Institution would surround and attack Su Xiao with sorrowful feelings. Using S-001 was something the entire containment organization could not accept.

Su Xiao never thought about using Dangerous Object S-001 himself. Just because he didn't use it didn't mean the Eclipse organization wouldn't. If Dangerous Object S-001 were snatched away by the Eclipse organization......

"Boss, what is your plan?"

"......"

Su Xiao made a gesture. Baja understood and wrapped the surrounding few meters with a space barrier to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.

Hunting Tide, holding a cup of coffee, stepped sideways and just entered the translucent space barrier. Recently, she had grown fond of coffee, a somewhat bitter drink. Of course, clear tea was her true love.

"To know where the Supreme Worm is, Dangerous Object S-001 is the key. I cannot use S-001, but Kingsley, the leader of the Eclipse organization, can. If the Eclipse organization 'goes crazy' and launches a surprise attack on the Institution's headquarters to snatch Dangerous Object S-001, whether Kingsley uses S-001 or not is no longer something I can control."

"So that's it. Brilliant~. But Boss, our headquarters is not easy to attack. Having just finished fighting a war on the Western Continent, the people below get excited when they see blood. These things in our organization don't have very good personalities to begin with, so you know~"

Baja expressed its worries. It could be said that Baja's brain was better than before, thinking more.

"I am the Institution's Legion Commander, and Kingsley is the leader of the Eclipse organization. We two cooperate, the Institution is the defensive side, and Eclipse is the surprise attack side. Is it possible to fail?"

"That's right, that's how it is."

Baja suddenly realized. This was simply impossible to fail.

Hunting Tide listened to the whole process. She looked calm and relaxed, but in fact, she was terrified. She sipped her coffee and whispered, "Your hearts are all dirty."

"This is called strategy. What do you know, you...... Grandma, I was wrong."

Baja's 180-degree turn made Hunting Tide feel suffocated. Being scolded and unable to fight back was very uncomfortable.

It's interesting to say that when Hunting Tide fought Emperor Taiyatu before, her attacks were ruthless to the limit. This was because she had been suppressed too much in the past and had nowhere to vent. Finally having a chance to fight, of course, she was ruthless.

Su Xiao didn't contact Kingsley for the time being. He was organizing the things he needed to do. First was the main quest, second was the Fate Blood in the white-haired boy and Aqi, and finally, cleaning up the rule-breakers.

Regarding the Fate Blood, thanks to Kingsley, there were still three people left in the protagonist team: the white-haired boy, Aqi, and Nainai Ni. The other two were already cold.

If it weren't for Kingsley's protection, on the tragic battlefield, neither Aqi nor the white-haired boy would have survived. The devourer in Aqi's body was growing rapidly. At the moment, the devourer was fighting with all its might regardless of the cost, which was already a force that could not be ignored.

Su Xiao was not worried about this. He could forcibly command the devourer three times, including letting the devourer commit suicide. How could the means he released not have an ultimate insurance?

Fate Blood, let it be nourished there for now, no rush to take it back. This matter was no longer a burden.

Regarding the rule-breaker, Su Xiao no longer cared. This guy's running speed was the fastest Su Xiao had ever seen. Let alone cleaning up, Su Xiao didn't even see a shadow. That guy not only ran fast but also hid to the limit.

After organizing the things to do, Su Xiao prepared to contact Lin Long Alec. He had helped the other party improve their faction reputation, and the other party promised to do one thing for him. Now was the time.

Su Xiao contacted Lin Long Alec through the brand number. The negotiation content was as follows:

Bai Ye: "Fulfill the promise."

Alec: "Only this once. What do I need to do?"

Bai Ye: "Disguise yourself as best as you can. Tomorrow evening, come and attack the Institution's headquarters."

Alec: "?"

Bai Ye: "You decide the specific details yourself."

Alec: "First, I am now a mid-to-high-level member of the Institution. Second, you said the specific details are decided by me. Does this sentence mean where I am buried after I die is decided by me?"

Bai Ye: "......"

Alec: "How high is the risk?"

Bai Ye: "I guarantee with my personality, the risk is not high."

Alec: "Brother, you just sank the Western Continent and killed all the living things that could breathe on that continent. You guarantee with your personality, this makes me a bit......"

Alec: "Simply put, this is impossible. Change to something else."

Bai Ye: "45,000 faction reputation."

Alec: "Let's talk about the details. I declare in advance that I will bring a helper."

Bai Ye: "Who?"

Alec: "Holy Light Paradise's poison milk, Guangmu."

In a workshop in Gaman City, Lin Long Alec took out a dialer. A few minutes later, a figure in a black dress walked into the workshop. It was Guangmu.

"You're in such a hurry to find me, what's the matter? I still have to go to York City to handle some things."

Guangmu had returned to her usual expression. Facts proved that as long as enough benefits were gained, the scars in her heart could be healed.

"Of course, I have good things to find you."

When Alec said this, he suddenly realized the feeling of Black Rose posting a certain message on the World Communication Platform.

"Tell me about it."

Guangmu didn't doubt him. She was still very comfortable cooperating with Alec.

"The thing is like this: tomorrow evening, we will attack the Institution's headquarters. Don't look at me like that, this is a feasible plan......"

"Wait, wait, wait."

Guangmu rarely interrupted others. After taking a deep breath, she asked, "Alec, did you get water in your brain?"

"No. This matter was planned by Bai Ye. If we reveal it to the outside world, you can imagine the result. He is now the Institution's Legion Commander. Institution members won't believe what we say, and the Eclipse organization will also hunt us down. Part of Bai Ye's plan is that there will be a 'drastic change' at the Institution's headquarters tomorrow evening. Eclipse doesn't want to do things too absolutely, so they won't kill during the battle...... Guangmu, where are you going?"

"Goodbye!"

Guangmu turned and left. Keywords like attacking the Institution's headquarters and Bai Ye awakened the scars deep in her heart.

In the office on the seventh floor of the Institution's headquarters, Su Xiao looked at the time and activated the communicator in his hand.

"What's the matter?"

Kingsley's voice came from the communicator, looking slightly tired. Although he didn't show up on the Western Continent before, he did many things in secret.

"Kingsley, bring your people tomorrow night to attack the Institution's headquarters and snatch Dangerous Object S-001."

"Reason."

Kingsley's tone was calm and unperturbed.

"Supreme Worm."

"Be more specific."

"Everything on the Western Continent originated because of the Supreme Worm."

Su Xiao prepared to reveal appropriate intelligence, otherwise, Kingsley would not join hands with him to do this.

"Oh? In other words, if this thing named the Supreme Worm is not dealt with, in the future, the same scene as on the Western Continent will appear on the Eastern Continent or the Southern Continent?"

"Yes."

Hearing Su Xiao's reply, Kingsley was silent for a moment, his tone changed, and he said:

"Bai Ye, you have gone too far. You actually tried to abduct my wife and children tonight."

Kingsley changed the subject and said something that didn't happen at all.

"Yeah, let's make it 11 o'clock at night. You arrange it on your side."

"Okay, I'll arrange a banquet. Don't release blood aura to scare my son. Also, don't provoke my wife. Cough, the specific situation is complicated, not convenient to reveal."

Kingsley had already arranged it. Acting, after all, needs to be made real. Others are not fools. Besides, he would lurk in the dark and mobilize many dangerous objects. If Su Xiao really wanted to hurt his wife and children, it would be a bloody battle. Kingsley, using a large number of dangerous objects, was not the same concept as the last time they fought.

"By the way, at my memorial service...... this is really awkward to say. In short, who made my portrait so big?"

"It's your nephew. Is there any problem?"

When Su Xiao said this, he remembered that it seemed he asked Kingsley's nephew to make the portrait bigger.

"My portrait seems to have become a lower-level dangerous object, and the danger level hasn't reached the sequence level."

When Kingsley said this, his tone revealed a hint of disbelief. He immediately said: "My portrait cannot be used. Send it to your side for containment. The characteristic of that portrait is that whoever cries underneath it, it will smash them."

"Pfft~"

The coffee in Hunting Tide's mouth almost sprayed out. Baja tried hard not to laugh out loud, and Bubu Wang was twitching as it held back.

"It's not even B-level, it's a lower-level dangerous object, too weak. This is not a garbage dump. Handle it yourself."

Su Xiao hung up the communication, and on the other side, in the dangerous object storage vault of the Eclipse organization, Kingsley looked at his tall portrait and was speechless for a long time.
