Chapter 3404

~19 min read 3,660 words

Seaside city "Loash."

At night, the lights were on, and an airship cruised over the city. The streets below were bustling with traffic.

It should have been the most prosperous central area, but no vehicles could be seen on the streets, only many pedestrians strolling on the streets. Thinking about it, it was also true. The Judgment Office stood here, so of course, vehicles could not be allowed to approach the vicinity and disturb the big shots here.

There were many ring cities, fortress cities, etc., in the Clan's territory. The laws of each region were slightly different, which also contributed to different humanities and city styles.

"Loash" central street prohibited vehicles from entering, which was actually nothing. The Aurora Council side even had a hereditary system for nobles and councilors.

Every floor of the Judgment Office was brightly lit. The war in the border area broke out, and this place entered a 24-hour open state. As long as Clan officers were sent here, the corresponding judicial process would begin to operate to ensure sufficient deterrent power and avoid officers on the front line from being lazy or resisting orders.

Located on the fourth basement floor of the Judgment Office, this place had a thick metal style. Every prison cell was a single room. People who were locked here were Clan officers. Even if they were guilty, they would not receive the bad treatment like prisoners.

In the innermost single prison cell, Brigadier General Lei Zi sat on the single bed, holding a newspaper in his hand. The more he read, the deeper his brows furrowed.

Counting the time, Brigadier General Lei Zi had been locked in here for two days. In these two days, he did not consider anything else, but had been studying how to defeat the "group-fighting tactic" of the Sun camp.

After several summaries, Brigadier General Lei Zi figured out why the Sun camp was so difficult to deal with and conceived a response strategy.

It was a pity that this was meaningless. He was trapped in prison, and whether he could regain his freedom was an unknown, let alone keeping his position and going to the border area to conduct a revenge campaign.

Just as Brigadier General Lei Zi was thinking about these, the prison door was opened by a law enforcement guard. Brigadier General Lei Zi heard the sound and looked over. Except for the two law enforcement guards, the other three were new faces.

Brigadier General Lei Zi's heart skipped a beat. Seeing unknown new faces at this time likely meant bad luck. Thinking of the faces of the Alliance bureaucrats again, Brigadier General Lei Zi felt that it was just so-so, and he was even a little enlightened.

"Mr. Brigadier General, the Alliance needs you."

A Clan member wearing a formal suit and gold-rimmed glasses spoke. Although his temperament was weak, his eyes had an indescribable sharpness. This kind of person was either working in the intelligence department or was a power holder in a secret force.

"Hmm?"

Brigadier General Lei Zi was puzzled for a moment, and then he thought that the battle situation in the border area was unfavorable, and they were looking for someone to take the blame.

Brigadier General Lei Zi was secretly shocked, but the expression on his face remained unchanged. He said: "A defeated general like me has no qualifications to go to the front line again. I cannot convince the public. If the military heart is scattered, then it is completely defeated."

Brigadier General Lei Zi folded the newspaper in his hand and no longer paid attention to the gold-rimmed glasses man standing outside the door.

Seeing this, the gold-rimmed glasses man smiled meaningfully. He raised his hand to signal the two law enforcement guards of the Judgment Office to retreat, leaving only the two people he brought.

"Mr. Brigadier General, the Alliance needs you."

"I no longer have the value of being needed."

Brigadier General Lei Zi sighed while speaking. Although he very much hoped to return to the war zone to conduct the revenge battle he had planned in his heart, he would not go back to take the blame.

If he carried this pot, it was highly likely that he would die inexplicably as soon as he arrived at the Steel Fortress. He knew Lieutenant General Whitley and knew that the other party might do this.

"Mr. Brigadier General..."

"Don't say it anymore. I... will not go back again. I have already been crushed by Kuku Lin · Bai Ye and have no qualifications to face him again."

Brigadier General Lei Zi's expression revealed a bit of loneliness. Even if someone came to talk until their lips were broken today, he would not return to the front line.

"Mr. Brigadier General, please let me finish."

The tone of the gold-rimmed glasses man was slightly impatient. He hated others interrupting him. After confirming that Brigadier General Lei Zi would listen carefully, he continued:

"Brigadier General Lei Zi, according to my investigation, you sold a batch of standard weapons a few days ago. The buyer was a merchant named Ajiwo."

"Just scrapped weapons. I bought and sold them after getting the approval."

"Yes, from the account, your transaction is legalized, but can you explain to me what is going on with this photo?"

The gold-rimmed glasses man handed a photo to Brigadier General Lei Zi. Brigadier General Lei Zi took it and glanced at it casually, and his face changed drastically.

In this photo, Su Xiao, Caesar, and Brigadier General Lei Zi seemed to be talking. In Su Xiao's hand, he was holding a brand-new standard combat blade.

What was even more deadly was that the background of the photo was in the armory of the Warhammer troops, all of which were weapon racks.

Not to mention anything else, just this photo could implement more than a dozen charges against Brigadier General Lei Zi. Any one of them would be enough for Brigadier General Lei Zi to lose his life.

When Brigadier General Lei Zi's face was extremely ugly, the gold-rimmed glasses man spoke, saying the first sentence he said when he came:

"Mr. Brigadier General, the Alliance needs you."

"Defend the Alliance to the death!"

Brigadier General Lei Zi's attitude had a surprising change. While speaking, he also used a lighter to ignite the photo in his hand.

Border area, the battlefield was muddy. It rained last night, and in the past few days, this battlefield had been bombarded by heavy artillery-level weapons, and the sand and stones underground had been turned to the ground.

In the command room, Su Xiao stood in front of the curved floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the scene of the battlefield. The visibility at night was not high, but he could see the general situation of the battlefield.

No one expected the world contention war to be fought to this extent. Originally, everyone thought it was a melee between contractors and contractors, but as they fought, it turned into a melee of hundreds of thousands of indigenous people.

In Hao Mei's words, this was like a dream. If it weren't for the lack of main missions, she would have thought she had entered a world of war for years, rather than participating in a world contention war and participating in a contractor melee.

The current situation was very simple. If the Clan camp won, one of the three parties, Apocalypse Paradise, Holy Light Paradise, and Watcher Paradise, would win. And if the Sun camp won, it would represent the victory of Samsara Paradise.

Can't beat it, so run? I'm afraid you're thinking about farting. Yesterday at noon, half of the 【World Core】 here resonated with the 【Dark Mist】 on the enemy side.

The enemy side could sense the location of the World Core by virtue of 【Dark Mist】. In contrast, Su Xiao could also sense the direction of 【Dark Mist】 by virtue of the half 【World Core】 in his hand.

At the current stage, the entire continent was a battlefield notarized by the Void Tree. As long as you didn't leave this continent, you could fight however you wanted.

This was also a limitation, representing that it was impossible to take 【Dark Mist】 or half of the 【World Core】 and run away to the sea.

Either win or die without a burial place. On Su Xiao's side, the rear was the territory of alien beasts. On the side of Golden Count, Holy Poetry, and Aolandi, the rear was human territory. Neither side had a way out.

The ultimate counterattack of the Clan was about to come. The good news was that the 5 6-star titles in synthesis would complete this synthesis in a few seconds.

【Prompt: This random burning has been completed.】

【You obtained Chaos Overlord (★★★★★★★ title).】

A new 7-star title was obtained. Burning of titles without a main title was divided into two types: 1. Burning out 【Non-characteristic Title】. This burning method cost about half of normal burning. 2. Random burning. The cost of this burning method was several times that of normal burning.

It seemed that the former was cheaper, but in Su Xiao's view, the effect of a title was not only determined by the star level, but also by the special energy contained in it itself.

The more such special energy there was, the greater the improvement to the main title when it was used as a sub-title for burning, and the main title would naturally be stronger. For example, 【War Lord】 and 【Uncrowned King】, both were 7-star titles, but they were worlds apart.

The existence of 【War Lord】 could be said to be a miracle among titles because it was a title that had been upgraded four times.

A main title could be burned at most three times, after which it could no longer be burned. And 【War Lord】, after being upgraded from 3-star to 6-star, this title reached its limit and could no longer be burned.

But the problem was that the fourth upgrade of War Lord was not based on the burning of the title disk, but Su Xiao used the 7-star title 【Dream Chaser】 to upgrade it to 7-star.

【Dream Chaser · 7-star title: Sacrifice (Active), can select any existing 6-star title. After activating this ability, the Dream Chaser title will be consumed, causing the selected 6-star title to be promoted to a 7-star title, significantly improving this title's ability (stronger than more than 90% of 7-star titles).】

Just like this, 【War Lord】 underwent its fourth upgrade. At that time, Su Xiao discovered that the strength of War Lord was not right. Compared with normal 7-star titles, the strength of War Lord was outrageously high.

Not only that, after being upgraded with 【Dream Chaser】, War Lord not only inherited the star level of 【Dream Chaser】 but also inherited something more terrifying, which was the three burning opportunities of Dream Chaser.

Theoretically speaking, Su Xiao could upgrade War Lord to a 10-star title, but there was a problem: he didn't know if there was such a thing as a 10-star title. He hadn't even seen a 9-star title.

Perhaps this was also the origin of the name of the 【Dream Chaser】 title. Precisely because he didn't know if it existed, he created this possibility to pursue this dream.

And just like the attributes of the 【Dream Chaser】 title, it could upgrade a 6-star title to 7-star, and then obtain three burning opportunities, just to impact the dream of 10-star, to explore whether that dream object existed.

Time waits for no one. The Clan side could attack at any time. He had to get through the weakness period without the War Lord bonus as soon as possible.

Opening the title burning disk, Su Xiao first embedded 【War Lord】 into the main title slot.

After a crisp sound, War Lord was sucked into the groove in the center of the burning disk. Starting from this point, magma patterns gradually spread on the burning disk.

After a few more crisp sounds, 【Uncrowned King】, 【World Intrusion】, 【Combat Master】, and 【Chaos Overlord】 were embedded in the slots around it, among which 【World Intrusion】 melted rapidly, occupying the two sub-title slots, one for two.

【Pay or not to perform this title burning? If you need to perform it, you need to pay 5,000 Soul Coins.】

【Prompt: The success rate of this burning is 100%.】

The burning cost was within the acceptable range, 1,000 Soul Coins cheaper than the random burning of 6-star titles, but in order to make War Lord have a higher gold content, this expenditure was worth it.

The 100% success rate made Su Xiao feel slightly gratified, and he chose to start burning.

【Prompt: This title burning is estimated to take 12 hours and 45 minutes.】

Su Xiao hadn't been in a hurry to upgrade War Lord before because of this. Losing the War Lord bonus for nearly 13 hours, if this were in a melee, his side might even have the situation where they couldn't hold the defensive line and were besieged by the enemy at the Sun Fortress.

The wild boar warriors had undergone the metamorphosis of the Evolution Nest and already had good combat power, but facing the Clan, the hegemonic force of this world, this was not enough. Su Xiao had already experienced how good at fighting the Clan soldiers were.

After the title burning started, it could not be interrupted halfway unless he wanted War Lord to be scrapped.

Su Xiao would not win by luck. Since he needed time at the moment, he would fight for it himself.

How to make the Clan side not send troops within 13 hours, Su Xiao already had a plan in his heart. The previous layout could all be used.

Su Xiao took out the communicator and first contacted the slave trader Aziba. As soon as the call was connected, he said:

"Aziba, you still owe me a life."

The reason Su Xiao said this was because when the slave trader Aziba left the Free City before, his eldest son didn't have time to retreat and was caught by the people of the Sentry Tower leader Ferdinand.

It was Su Xiao who used the relationship on Li Xiniwei's side to pressure the connections of the Judgment Office, demanding that Aziba's eldest son be sent to the Judgment Office.

On the way, Su Xiao let Baha and Steel Tooth intercept the person, which saved the eldest son of the slave trader Aziba.

For this eldest son, the slave trader Aziba was satisfied from the bottom of his heart. He had six sons, five of whom were dwarves like him, and only the eldest son was not.

Aziba had once taken his eldest son for blood type and other tests. In short, everything that could be checked was checked. This was his 100% biological offspring.

Actually, there was one point Aziba didn't know. His eldest son was caught for many reasons. The most important point was that Su Xiao intervened.

This was the way to cooperate with members of the evil camp, or rather, the way to cooperate with a slave trader. Never think about letting the other party be loyal, or be heart-to-heart, or be grateful. If you have such a naive idea, what awaits is definitely a backstab, and subsequent betrayal.

Cooperating with this kind of person, you have to let the other party owe a debt of gratitude that must be repaid, and even dare not not repay.

Being feared is safer than being respected. Never let an evil camp collaborator see you when you are weak, and don't let the other party figure out your trump cards.

"Bai Ye, just this once."

The slave trader Aziba on the other side of the communicator had a low voice. This slave trader knew very clearly how difficult it was to repay a debt of gratitude, especially since Su Xiao was the leader of the Sun camp.

"Sentry Tower leader Ferdinand, Chief Justice Fowo, choose one of these two."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Aziba on the other side of the communicator was stunned.

"You want me to assassinate one of these two? Bai Ye, come and kill me. I will repay the life I owe you with my own."

The slave trader Aziba's attitude was unusually firm, because whether it was to assassinate Sentry Tower leader Ferdinand or Chief Justice Fowo, this was a business that would lead to the extermination of the whole family.

"Aziba, you are very rich."

"Yes."

"The human race can stalemate with the Clan until today, and there will be no shortage of capable people."

"I understand. I will use half, no, I will use two-thirds of my assets to hire someone to assassinate Sentry Tower leader Ferdinand."

Hearing this reply, Su Xiao hung up the communicator. He wanted to delay some time for the war by assassinating the big shots of the Sentry Tower, Clan Alliance, and Aurora Council.

Under normal circumstances, if Sentry Tower leader Ferdinand, Alliance Chief Toyin, Alliance Marshal He Kangdiwei, Chief Justice Fowo, and the councilors of the Aurora Council were assassinated, it would only make the Clan soldiers more angry and accelerate the speed of the war.

The current situation was different. The enemy had been attacking for three days without any progress, and had returned in defeat. The blow to morale could be imagined.

As the saying goes, one drum makes the spirit, the second makes it decline, and the third makes it exhausted.

The first battle there was a disastrous defeat, and the second expedition was hammered until it was full of bags. At this time, if several soul-level figures had problems, the Clan soldiers would really be exhausted.

By then, even if they wanted to go to war, they had to stabilize the military heart first, for example, one of the four big shots of the Clan personally visited the Steel Fortress.

As long as the situation developed to this extent, Su Xiao's plan to delay time would be achieved.

How much money the slave trader Aziba had made over the years was difficult to count. Money makes the mare go. Presumably, this time the folk masters of the human race who were fished out would give Sentry Tower leader Ferdinand a surprise.

Su Xiao dialed another frequency. This time he contacted Li Xiniwei.

Li Xiniwei had changed from the lackey of Chief Justice Fowo to the lackey of Alliance Marshal He Kangdiwei.

Su Xiao asked the other party to poison Alliance Marshal He Kangdiwei. If successful, it would cause a devastating blow to the morale of the Clan Alliance.

Hanging up the communicator, Su Xiao pondered for a moment and contacted the third person. A few seconds later, a slightly old voice came from the communicator:

"What's the matter with finding this old man?"

The person on the other side of the communicator was the patriarch of the Xin clan, Di Zong.

Su Xiao had met the other party in the Free City before. Originally, they were going to fight, but because the Free City was the territory of the Sentry Tower, after testing each other with one move, they didn't continue.

Su Xiao's feeling at that time was that this old guy was quite strong. That feeling was like a fierce evil ghost hidden under a skin bag. Thinking of this, Su Xiao said:

"Help me kill someone."

"Time, place, target, remuneration."

"No remuneration. The target is Chief Justice Fowo."

"Too hard to kill, not accepting."

Di Zong didn't consider it and refused immediately.

"The Xin clan has no commissions that they don't accept."

"That's fart talk said to outsiders. Chief Justice Fowo, as the controller of the Judgment Office, his power is no less than that of Ferdinand, Toyin, and He Kangdiwei."

After Di Zong finished saying this, both sides were silent. This silence lasted for nearly a minute before it was broken by Di Zong.

"Over there, they are about to meet."

Di Zong suddenly said a confusing sentence. But Su Xiao understood what the other party meant.

"When they fight, don't make a move."

Di Zong's words were even more confusing.

"Do you think this is possible? I have developed Boiling Red and Dark Sun for so long. When they clash, I will control Boiling Red."

"Don't make a move. In return, I will help you assassinate Chief Justice Fowo."

Di Zong seemed to sigh while speaking.

"Oh? You actually cherish your clansmen so much."

Su Xiao put the communicator on the table and lit a cigarette.

"It's not about cherishing. They have their own destiny. For them, it's too early to clash with you now. They don't have this qualification yet. That's it. I'm going to "Loash" now."

"Deal."

Su Xiao hung up the communicator. Among the four representative figures of the Clan, the assassination of three of them had already been arranged. As for the remaining Alliance Chief Toyin, Su Xiao would be responsible for it himself.

Su Xiao got up and walked out of the command room. Bubu Wang wanted to follow, but it couldn't leave the fortress now. Baha and Benny went out together.

This time Su Xiao wanted to make a trip to "Kevab Ring City," not only to empty the armory of the Clan Alliance through the tool man Hao Mei, but also because Alliance Chief Toyin was in the inner city area of "Kevab Ring City."

What Su Xiao was about to use was a move he had newly developed. This move was developed by virtue of the Blood Spear Grandmaster. He had used it once on the battlefield before, and this time, he was going to use the complete version, which was to use this move while wearing 【Ancient Killing Ring】.
