Chapter 3243

The screen on the Deathmatch Terminal turned black and white. The puzzle-solving game's DLC had a total of three scenes, each with 10–12 small levels, totaling 33 small levels.

Looks simple? Not at all. Only the entrance of each scene had a save point. After working hard all day, just a momentary mistake would send you back to the save point to roast fire and eat biscuits.

In Pi Pang's own words, this DLC was not perfect enough and would not be released yet; let Su Xiao beta test it first.

The actual situation was that the difficulty of this thing was too high, and Pi Pang was afraid that after it was released, he would be investigated by angry gamers.

Please don't laugh. Making games in the Paradise is a dangerous job because you never know which big shot will play your game, and whether that big shot, after being abused into autism, will come offline to find you and have an offline real-life PK with you. Perhaps Pi Pang never makes fighting games precisely because of this.

Su Xiao remembered the Deathmatch Game. In terms of nature, the Deathmatch Game was a fighting game. Right now, the headquarters of that game company had been blown flat, and the boss had run away.

Putting away the Deathmatch Terminal, this thing was bought by him for hundreds of thousands of Paradise Coins, and its performance was very powerful. This Deathmatch Terminal, apart from the Deathmatch Game, could play any game.

Su Xiao leaned on the lounge chair, blowing the cool night wind in front of the window. At the current stage, he had to solve a very important problem: how to know the situation on the Sun Monarch's side.

In the Sun Church's inventory, there were a total of 21 scroll fragments. With this quantity, Su Xiao not participating in the struggle on the Sun Monarch's side actually didn't matter. The problem was that after he entered the Sand World, he received a side quest.

This side quest was named "Collecting Habit," and the content was to collect 25 scroll fragments within the Sand World.

The quest reward was 【Origin Stone Random Extraction Permission】, which was a reward Su Xiao could not refuse. The penalty for quest failure was Charisma attribute -5 points, Luck attribute -3 points.

Su Xiao could accept the Charisma attribute slipping, but the Luck attribute slipping by 3 points was very heartbreaking. Su Xiao's current Luck attribute was 43 points, of which 8 points were the passive effect bonus of the Fate Ruler.

In other words, his own Luck attribute was only 35 points. Not counting the 1 point of Luck attribute Su Xiao had when he first entered the Samsara Paradise, it meant that from the first tier to the eighth tier, Su Xiao had only increased his Luck attribute by 34 points, of which 15 points came from the chain achievement quest · Sweeping the Sky, and the Luck attribute increased through other methods totaled 19 points.

Sorting it out like this, this side quest deducting 3 points of Luck attribute was very heartbreaking. Su Xiao knew that his luck was not very good. If he deducted another 3 points of Luck attribute, that would be terrible.

The 21 scroll fragments in the Sun Church's inventory, for Su Xiao, even if not stable, the probability of getting them was over 90%.

The missing 4 fragments, judging from the current situation, could only be obtained from the Sun Monarch's side, which was why Su Xiao needed real-time intelligence from over there.

Snatch scroll fragments from the Sun Monarch? Of course not, this was the least efficient method. Su Xiao was currently a member of the Sun Church. Tomorrow morning, two bishops, four deacons, and twelve priests of the Sun Church would meet him in the greenhouse on the fifth floor of the Cathedral.

The reason so many high-level members of the Sun Church wanted to see him was because he had issued a commission through Caesar, and this commission was to take the reward first and then do the work.

The content of the commission was pending. The content would not violate the tenets of the Sun Church. It was dangerous, but it was definitely not a certain-death situation. The reward for the commission was the reservation right for seven types of potions, corresponding to: Strength, Speed, Spirit, Life, Body Defense, Nature, and Divine Blood.

The materials required for the seven potion formulas were all listed. Believers who accepted the commission only needed to bring the corresponding materials, and Su Xiao would concoct potions for the other party.

When Su Xiao needed it, he would draft the content of the commission. At that time, the believer who accepted the commission could refuse, but they had to compensate Su Xiao with 600 Sun Gold Coins. This was compensation for Su Xiao concocting potions for them, but they didn't do things for Su Xiao.

No matter how you look at it, Su Xiao's move was very suspicious. For suspicious people, the Sun Church had never been polite.

The problem was that Su Xiao was too suspicious, suspicious to the point of being open and aboveboard, suspicious to the point of making a group of church high-level members feel bewildered. Generally speaking, people with ulterior motives shouldn't be so blatant. Isn't this courting death?

If Su Xiao hadn't concocted the Sun Potion, the executioners of the Sun Church responsible for dealing with heretics would have already taken action. The problem was that not long after Su Xiao joined the Sun Church, he revealed his identity as a pharmacist.

This made the church high-level members even more bewildered. What is this for? Is he really here to join the Sun Church? Doesn't look like it. This guy is too suspicious. We must prevent him from running away with a large amount of Sun Gold Coins and supplies.

That's right, in the dark around Su Xiao's residence, more than a dozen believers were already watching.

Just when a group of church high-level members thought Su Xiao was going to abscond with the money, Su Xiao announced a commission to advance the reward. The most ruthless points of this commission were two: 1. You can get the reward in advance, 2. If you go back on your word and are unwilling to complete the requirements Su Xiao proposes later, you only need to pay 600 gold coins as compensation.

The seven types of potions Su Xiao listed were not available in the Sun Church. Even if they were, the concoction fee for each type of potion had to be paid to the pharmacist for nearly a thousand gold coins, and those pharmacists would not be like Su Xiao, guaranteeing a 90% success rate.

This made it very difficult to refuse. Su Xiao played this card, and a group of church high-level members fell silent. They found that the situation was starting to become tricky.

Get rid of Su Xiao? Of course not. Su Xiao's series of actions benefited many believers. In this situation, if the Sun Church got rid of a pharmacist who came to seek refuge, I don't know how many people's hearts would be chilled.

Su Xiao just came and concocted Sun Potion to sell. Although it was a bit expensive, the performance of this potion was the best of its kind. Expensive has its reasons.

This led to Su Xiao's special status within the Sun Church. A group of church high-level members wanted him to leave because he was suspicious, while ordinary believers wanted him to stay.

The current situation was starting to balance, which was exactly what Su Xiao wanted to see. He didn't intend to go to war with the Sun Monarch head-on; there was no need to do that. He was now a member of the Sun Church. Based on this identity, reaching a secret cooperation with the Sun Monarch was a very good choice.

In the confrontation with the Gray Gentleman, Su Xiao learned a strategy from the other party: before designing a plan, have two preparations.

Plan 1: Conduct a one-time recruitment in the Sun Church in the form of a commission. Once enough believers are recruited, this will be a very terrifying force.

Plan 2: Reach a cooperation with the Sun Monarch in secret. When the Sun Monarch breaks with Zui Yasi, Wood, Morey, and others, backstab the Sun Monarch, snatch the scroll fragments, and also obtain World Source, treasure chests, etc.

Prioritize Plan 2. If there is a slip-up, you can use the force recruited by Plan 1 to launch a strong attack.

Su Xiao made up his mind. In fact, the core of his plan was very simple: snatch scroll fragments and resources. These two points were the most important.

He checked the existing reputation, and the Samsara Paradise hint appeared.

【Existing reputation value: 903,005/30,000 points (Revered Grade).】

The reputation level was stuck at the Revered Grade, but the existing reputation had reached 900,000 points, which was not far from Su Xiao's expected goal.

There were 44 bottles of Sun Potion left. Barring any accidents, if all were sold, Su Xiao could net 924,000 reputation points. Judging from the current sales speed, by tomorrow noon, the Sun Potions would be sold out. Very popular.

Looking at the sky, the night was dark and the wind was high. It was time. Su Xiao took Bubu Wang and Baha out, heading straight for the Cathedral.

……

Dynasty Ruins · Saint Dan City, currently occupied by the Sun Monarch. To live here, you not only have to wear a neck shackle but also pay a high living fee.

The night in Saint Dan City was magnificent, dilapidated, and quiet. Located more than 20 kilometers to the east, the rocks were jagged, and a winding river flowed past. Occasionally, you could hear the howling of nocturnal animals.

A temporary camp was built in a wind-sheltered place blocked by giant rocks. The firewood burned by the fire crackled. Two figures sat in front of the campfire, one sitting like a salted fish, the other hugging her knees, sulking.

"Morey, when my summoning ability recovers, I will scatter them all, scatter them all!"

The Moon Apostle's tone was sorrowful and indignant. This was the price she paid to find and obtain the "Beast Heart." In principle, no one could obtain the "Beast Heart," but the Moon Apostle had a summon that could do this, turning the impossible into possible.

That summon was on standby. As a price, the Moon Apostle could now only summon a small amount of Moon-type summons, and the individual strength was very low. Even if she used all her strength, she could only summon dozens of summons. In the Moon Apostle's view, this was equivalent to nothing, not as good as her "money ability."

If this thought of the Moon Apostle were known by other summoning classes, they would definitely hang her up and whip her. What do you mean by only dozens of summons? For more than 95% of summoning classes, this was already a lot.

In fact, the Moon Apostle was not showing off. Her summon limit was 195,360, and dozens were really not many.

"Ah, ah, I know, when your strength recovers, you can shark them all."

Morey spoke listlessly, with a dark circle under her right eye. This was because she was punched this evening.

"You don't believe me?"

The Moon Apostle was even more angry. Even her best friend didn't believe her.

"Since we met, in my impression, whenever there is a big war, you definitely get beaten."

"Not true!"

The Moon Apostle wanted to quibble, but she couldn't say anything after holding it in for a long time.

She had forgotten how many worlds she had pierced through. In the last world progress, he even pierced through an eighth-tier world. A Saint Domain Paradise god-stick group with dozens of eighth-tier contractors was besieged and killed by her summons. From beginning to end, those eighth-tier contractors didn't find the Moon Apostle. After being educated by Su Xiao, she started to like hiding a thousand meters underground.

It could be said that the Moon Apostle was a phantom god in normal world progress. After being cowardly for a period of time, she would push horizontally all the way. But when it came to world contention battles, she would immediately collapse.

"It's okay, I will protect you."

Morey smiled, her pink short hair making her look exceptionally fresh.

"So reliable, Morey, with you protecting me, I definitely won't..."

Boom!

The earth trembled. A 【Cruel Saw Spear】 stabbed down from the sky. With this saw spear as the center, a large circle of cracks appeared on the ground within a hundred meters.

"Be careful!"

Morey lunged toward the Moon Apostle amidst the crumbling soil blocks. She reached out with one hand, grabbing the Moon Apostle's arm.

With a whoosh, a figure appeared beside Morey. This person wore an iron-black head bucket and black leather clothing, with ribbon buckles as decorations on the leather clothing.

The head-bucket man held a large saw hammer, with mottled blood stains that couldn't be washed off. If it weren't for capture, this saw hammer would have already extended its saw teeth. One hammer down, and the person would be smashed to pieces.

The head-bucket man held the saw hammer with both hands, launching a surprise attack from mid-air. Brilliant sunlight erupted from his brow, which made Morey's eyes turn white, and the strength of her whole body was also drawn away.

In fact, Su Xiao ignored one problem. He offered three 【Warm Sun Stones】 this time, and the price was too high. This led to this commission attracting a nine-person elite squad. Among all the believers, they were the most elite tier, and the tenth person was a bored deacon.

Bright light appeared suddenly. Morey blocked in front of her with one hand. Her thinking was very chaotic now, and an urge to praise the Sun appeared in her heart.

At this moment, the saw hammer in the head-bucket man's hand swung horizontally.

Boom!

The air explosion ring exploded, a wisp of blood trailed in mid-air, and Morey flew backward into the distance.

Compared to Morey, the Moon Apostle was even more miserable. A total of nine head-bucket men surrounded her, and the brilliance of the Sun shone from all directions.

A sincere smile appeared on the Moon Apostle's face. Her arms seemed to want to embrace the Sun, and the expression on her face was extremely happy.

Click, click~

Chains bound Morey's hands and feet. A female believer kicked the back of the Moon Apostle's leg, making the Moon Apostle kneel on the ground.

The happiness on the Moon Apostle's face suddenly disappeared. She looked around as calmly as possible and explained:

"I am not from any religious sect."

The Moon Apostle's experience in surviving was very rich; she had already seen that these people who besieged her came from a religious sect or church.

The Moon Apostle's words didn't get a response. A believer walked toward her and kicked her face directly, very suddenly.

With a bang, the Moon Apostle's eyes fell into darkness, and she lay on the ground. Vaguely, she heard someone talking, the content was:

"The other one escaped. That little pink-haired one disappeared with a 'poof'."

"With a 'poof'? What are you talking about."

"Must find her, she can't run far."

"Quack~"
