Chapter 3199: Are You Still Hiring?
Su Xiao closed the prompt. Regarding the reward reduction caused by cooperating with Wood and Zuiyas, Su Xiao didn't care.
If Su Xiao had come to the Nightmare World alone, whether he could deal with the Nightmare Lord would be a question. After all, this was the other party's territory, and the other party might have incredible abilities.
If he couldn't deal with it, how could he talk about obtaining rewards? It was far better to cooperate with Wood and Zuiyas. Having meat to eat was a good thing.
After completing the Painting Scroll Contest, the Painting World settlement would proceed. In this regard, Su Xiao's idea was to achieve the goal while alive first. Of course, if he had to choose, he would definitely use the brand level obtained this time to perform a random draw.
Su Xiao certainly knew that his rank promotion speed had always been too fast. Compared to other powerhouses who piled up through the number of worlds, he appeared weak in terms of props and stored materials, while his own abilities were not weak at all, and even stronger than those people. Su Xiao's resources were basically piled on this.
Having made up his mind, Su Xiao was looking forward to the gains from the Nightmare World, but he couldn't be careless. The Nightmare King was indeed a bit cowardly and very unable to afford to lose, but this didn't mean the other party was weak.
"Do you have any good ways to get to the top layer of the Nightmare World?"
Wood didn't put away the Abyss Jar. Looking at his appearance, he was prepared to use the Abyss Jar frequently to embody all its good sides, and then let Su Xiao or Zuiyas develop greed, or let the Nightmare King develop covetousness.
"The blood seal I constructed earlier can be used as a spatial coordinate. As long as synchronization is achieved through the Devil Tribe's spatial array, there is a certain probability of teleporting there, but it is not stable."
"Good method."
Zuiyas agreed immediately, while Wood looked hesitant. Su Xiao's sentence contained too much information, and keywords like "Devil Tribe's spatial array," "certain probability," and "not stable" stimulated Wood's nerves.
Wood had experienced the Devil Tribe's spatial technology once. After that, his only thought was that as long as there were other ways, he would never use the Devil Tribe's spatial technology.
"Bai Ye's proposal has reference value but no practical value. Zuiyas, you wouldn't want to experience the Devil Tribe's teleportation technology. It's not a question of stability; it's just that kind of... very special, I can't describe it specifically, it's hard to say in one word."
Wood tactfully rejected the request to "get on the car." He seemed to be possessed by a salesman again, tapped the jar in his hand, and said:
"Two friends, as long as you each offer... cough, each pay a Soul Stone, we will have a way to enter the first layer of the Nightmare World."
After saying this, the pupil flames in Wood's eyes shrank a bit. It was the feeling of heartache for having to use a Soul Stone, which was a Soul Crystal.
Seeing Wood's expression, Su Xiao frowned, speculating that the price to be paid this time was not small, otherwise Wood wouldn't show that expression. This made him hesitate whether it was worth it. Thinking carefully, if he could seize many 【Scroll Fragments】, it was worth it!
Zuiyas also felt a bit of heartache and said: "It can only be this way. Let's follow Wood's method."
"Hmm."
Su Xiao, Zuiyas, and Wood all took out Soul Stones, but the specifications of the Soul Stones were different.
Wood took out a Soul Crystal (Complete), Zuiyas took out a Soul Crystal (Large), and Su Xiao took out a Soul Crystal Core.
This highlighted the gap between the rich and the poor. Soul Crystals were a scarce resource in the Void. Although the Devil Tribe was one of the major forces, when Wood took out a Soul Crystal (Complete), he also felt heartache.
Zuiyas represented the Meteorite Star, which was the lair of Ancient Gods. The Meteorite Star certainly wouldn't be rich, but this was also relative. As the lair of Ancient Gods, for Su Xiao, the resources there were too many, all divine bones and Soul Coins, as well as various equipment, and various bloodline items of the Ancient God system. Of course, to "take" these resources, he needed to have very strong strength, otherwise, going there would be a waste.
Wood and Zuiyas were stunned after seeing the Soul Crystal Core in Su Xiao's hand, and then both focused their gazes on Su Xiao. It was a gaze of "hating the rich."
Zuiyas changed to taking out a Soul Crystal (Complete). After each person threw a Soul Crystal into the Abyss Jar, Wood chanted something in his mouth. This was like a language, but not quite, making the listener's brain ache.
Crack!
A crack appeared out of thin air. Wood walked into the crack first. After observing for a moment, Su Xiao walked into it.
Entering the crack, Su Xiao saw purple-black semi-fluid surging around. He found himself rising. After not knowing how long, light appeared ahead, and at the same time, a sense of repulsion appeared behind.
When the surroundings returned to normal, Su Xiao was already in the Birth Plaza. He saw four blood-stained chains nearby, as well as animal traps, etc. There was also a small line of text on the ground, the content of which was:
"If I don't avenge this, I'm a puppy — Morey."
That was right. This Birth Plaza was the place Su Xiao wanted to come to. Right now, just keep moving forward.
Su Xiao glanced at the team channel. Bubu Wang and Bahar were both in an unreachable state, indicating that they had returned to the Main Painting World.
Regarding this, Su Xiao wasn't worried. Luo Xi and Yanqi Suoyege couldn't launch a revenge. With Bahar's temper, if they really reached a desperate situation, he would use 【Flame of Wrath: Apollo】 to die together. Given the area of the castle in the Main Painting World, the power of Apollo would be compressed to a very terrifying level. Therefore, it was almost impossible for a conflict to occur there.
Su Xiao walked toward the Birth Plaza. Along the way, he habitually took out a Soul Crystal (Large). After seeing the one in Zuiyas's hand just now, he wanted to eat it a bit. More importantly, he wanted to improve his soul strength through the Soul Eater talent and by eating Soul Crystals.
Crunch.
The entrance was crunchy, and the taste was wonderful.
Zuiyas, who was slightly behind Su Xiao, paused his footsteps. He blinked, as if confirming whether the thing Su Xiao was holding, and had even taken a bite of, was a Soul Stone.
Hmm, that was a large piece of Soul Stone. After Zuiyas confirmed this, his mood suddenly became bad. No, it was that he himself became bad.
Clang~
Zuiyas kicked away an animal trap blocking the way. Wood, who was walking alongside him, asked: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, just suddenly a bit unhappy. The Nightmare King is too rich; it deserves to die."
When Zuiyas said this, he smiled exceptionally creepily.
If the Nightmare King heard Zuiyas's words, it would probably be very confused. Whether it was rich or not, did it have anything to do with whether it deserved to die? Was it being a scapegoat?
"Bai Ye, have you been to the Meteorite Star?"
"No."
"If there is a chance, you should go to the Meteorite Star to see. The scenery there is very beautiful, a fallen beauty."
"Oh."
"Cough, that."
"..."
Su Xiao turned his head to look at Zuiyas, not understanding what the other party wanted to say.
"Cough~, are you still hiring people in your Reincarnation Paradise? I'm asking for a friend, hahaha."
"Hmm?"
Su Xiao was surprised for a moment, then his eyes seemed to be shining. A big business had come to him on its own. On second thought, this matter was unreliable; Zuiyas was from the Meteorite Star.
The three of Su Xiao hurried all the way. After passing the first half of the slaughterhouse, they arrived in the labyrinth. For Su Xiao, who had restored his perception, this labyrinth was a mere formality.
The reason why they still walked along the normal path was that Zuiyas had already explored it. Outside the high walls on both sides of the slaughterhouse was black-purple semi-fluid flowing past, which could not be passed.
Walking out of the labyrinth, a high wall stood in front, towering into the sky. On this sky wall was a giant metal door 10 meters high and 6 meters wide. There was a keyhole on the metal door, and next to it were eight password rollers embedded in the door.
The key was the reward for survivors winning the survival game, and the eight-digit password was a test of wisdom + luck. Both were indispensable. The clues provided in the slaughterhouse were just like this.
"I'm not good at this aspect. My IQ is actually not high."
Zuiyas pointed to his head with his finger.
Su Xiao didn't speak, meaning he wasn't good at this aspect either.
"Right, only I am a person who is good at calculation. You two are both martial arts types, both straightforward."
Wood sighed and came to the giant door. After sensing the hardness of the giant door, he shook his head and began to try to crack the password.
During the wait, Su Xiao took out another Soul Crystal (Large) and ate it with a crunching sound. Beside him, the anger of Zui Yas towards the Nightmare King surged.
Half an hour later, Su Xiao threw the last small piece of Soul Crystal into his mouth. He had already eaten three Soul Crystals (Large) and was half full.
"Wood, can you actually do it?"
Zuiyas was inexplicably full of anger. He couldn't help but fail.
"Then you come?"
Wood was also annoyed. The password of this broken door, saying that wisdom and luck were indispensable, but he suspected that with the Nightmare King's inability to afford to lose, the password of this broken door was nine times out of ten random and had nothing to do with wisdom.
"Then I'll come."
A few minutes later, Zuiyas's aura gradually became brutal.
"Get out of the way."
Su Xiao stepped forward. Although he didn't want to expose his move, he had no choice. This broken door had various blocking means. Besides the key and password, the most effective means was violence.
"Bai Ye, this door is not simple, it is..."
Before Wood could finish his sentence, the sound of Su Xiao rushing forward had already entered his ears. Su Xiao kicked straight toward the giant metal door ahead.
Thud!!
More than half of the slaughterhouse shook, the walls of the labyrinth area collapsed in a large area, and gravel splashed all over the sky.
Accompanied by the sound of twisting metal and a boom like an air cannon, a hole five meters in diameter was kicked into the giant metal gate. The metal at the edges of the hole curled outward like a blooming flower.
Su Xiao flexed his right leg and looked at Wood, his gaze asking what the other party had just said.
"Not an important matter, let's go."
Whether Wood was intentional or unintentional, he had been on Su Xiao's right side, but suddenly came to Su Xiao's left side. Zuiyas simply didn't walk side-by-side with Su Xiao, separating himself from Su Xiao with Wood.
Passing through the giant metal door, neon lights of various colors appeared ahead. This was a nighttime playground, with a Ferris wheel and a carousel.
The iron gate of the playground was open, and a chubby clown stood in front. Noticing Su Xiao and the others walking over, he was stunned in place and hurriedly hid the dagger he was holding behind his back.
The chubby clown looked at the giant metal door more than ten meters away and the ferocious hole on it. He swallowed his saliva, already frantically "greeting" the Nightmare King in his heart. Was this asking him to face the enemy? This was asking him to die!
"Everyone... welcome to the playground."
The chubby clown was panicked. He knew that because he didn't bow to the Nightmare King and was only willing to maintain a cooperative relationship, the Nightmare King used him as a cannon fodder to delay time. The Nightmare King wanted to use this precious time to gather strength in the Nightmare Town behind.
"Red nose, let's not waste time. You and I one-on-one, you must not die too quickly."
Zuiyas grinned, and black tentacles gradually grew on his body.
Opposite, the chubby clown realized that things were not good. The three strong enemies coming over clearly didn't intend to give him a chance to negotiate. That tentacle man was already ready to act. He only had one sentence of time. He didn't want to be a shield for the Nightmare King, and he didn't want to die even more.
"Everyone, I know where there are Scroll Fragments!"
After saying this, the chubby clown nodded very seriously.
"What should I call this friend? Don't look at me like that, I was just joking with you just now. Tell me, where are the Scroll Fragments? If you say they are with the Nightmare King, we won't be friends."
Zuiyas's killing intent suddenly disappeared, which made the chubby clown's expression twist. The guy opposite turned his face faster than turning a book. As a villain, the chubby clown felt very uncomfortable. He suddenly felt that he didn't seem bad either. Compared to the aura of the three guys opposite, he felt that he was a very good person.
