Chapter 3443: Lucky One

~27 min read 5,203 words

Inside the dim "Unseen House," the World Store was located here. The natives of this world, such as the Vine Clan, couldn't enter here. Even if they opened the door and stepped inside, they would just walk into an old, abandoned tavern.

The Unseen House was about 50 square meters. The triangular lamp on the ceiling was the only light source here.

A streak of blood slid down the lamp wall, dripping from the downward-pointing triangular tip. Due to the illumination of the lamp, this drop of blood reflected a faint glimmer.

When this drop of blood fell into mid-air, its characteristics changed, or rather, it transformed from a liquid into a breath energy called blood energy. Afterward, a complicated structural framework appeared inside it, forming it into a needle shape. Under the controller's command, it pierced through a tiny sonic boom and plunged straight into the right eyeball of a scarred strong man.

A muffled groan, the scarred strong man subconsciously tilted his head back. The world, which had clear colors, turned blood-red in his right eye. He subconsciously covered his right eye, but immediately, he experienced what it felt like to have an explosion inside his skull.

Hum!

The scarred strong man only felt that he and the world around him seemed to have an extra layer of membrane. Sounds and smells from the outside world were blocked out a lot, and the only thing left was the buzzing in his ears.

The scarred strong man struggled to lift his head and saw the enemy holding two saw-blade short knives, with five blood spears floating behind his back. His teammate, Dorilai, was kneeling on the ground with his back to the enemy, holding his spurting throat with both hands, with one long and one short blood spear stuck in his body. This teammate was not going to live.

The scarred strong man, panting like a cow, shifted his gaze to look at the other two teammates. One was pinned to the ground, and the other had taken a straight kick from the enemy and was already evenly distributed on the wall. Not to mention picking him off, he could only be wiped off.

The scarred strong man looked at the enemy walking step by step. Under the dim light, the enemy's eyes, which vaguely revealed red light, gave him a sense of trembling. He deeply realized at this moment that he and the enemy were simply not in the same dimension.

"I can tell you the Gray Gentleman's plan..."

Bang!

The scarred strong man's vision plunged into pitch darkness.

Su

Su Xiao arrived before the large iron gate and knocked on it, signaling Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Bahar, Caesar, and Aiduo'er outside to come in.

Xiang Bubu, Bahar, and Aiduo'er entered smoothly, but just as Caesar lifted his foot to step in, he was blocked by a layer of light film.

This made Caesar stare wide-eyed; the World Shop was right within reach, and the various operations in his mind were galloping like wild donkeys off the leash, yet he couldn't enter the Unseen House. The reason was that his Void Tree reputation was too low, and he was not a participant.

Blocked outside the door, Caesar took out his sh*t-yellow hood and pulled it over his head, holding a worn-out POS machine in his hand. The "Endless Greed" and "Deceiver's Hood" from the "Three Divine Artifacts" appeared simultaneously.

Su Xiao ignored Caesar, who was operating there for the moment, and signaled Aiduo'er to transfer the special Overlord status.

Without seeing Aiduo'er make any move, two dark golden halos shaped like crowns appeared above her head; one of the dark golden crowns transferred to the scarred, burly man.

A blood spear shot out, finishing off the scarred, burly man. Su Xiao did not receive Killing Merit, but instead saw a card beside the enemy's corpse, similar to a Scarlet Card.

【You have obtained a Killing Merit Card (100 points).】

Su Xiao had previously obtained one such Killing Merit Card when opening a supply crate; that one was for 20 points.

【Announcement (Void Tree): Special Overlord unit has been killed.】

【Special Overlord unit is being randomly selected...】

【Due to special notarization, this random selection has been terminated.】

【The current special Overlord unit is Aiduo'er Papa.】

Seeing these announcements, the participants all realized where the problem lay. The special Overlord unit had been killed, yet not only was there no re-randomization, but it remained Aiduo'er Papa; it was simply hellish.

Su Xiao opened the World Contact Platform, and sure enough, it was already about to explode.

Karolo (Apocalypse Paradise): "The special Overlord doesn't even change? Someone must have done something to cause Aiduo'er Papa to remain the special Overlord unit."

National Football Old Three (Reincarnation Paradise): "Aiduo'er Papa, if you've been captured, give a squeak."

Karolo (Apocalypse Paradise): "The Killing Leaderboard hasn't changed, which means killing the special Overlord unit grants a Killing Merit Card."

Alec (Death Paradise): "This was done by a Rule-Breaker."

National Football Old Two (Reincarnation Paradise): "Does this still need analysis? You can tell with your toenails that this must have been caused by a Rule-Breaker."

Shenyin (Holy Light Paradise): "Rule-Breaker, come out and get beaten!"

Witch Doctor (Sanctuary Paradise): "Does this still need analysis? If this wasn't done by the Gray Gentleman, I'll chop off my own head on the spot and perform a death-on-the-spot for everyone."

Bee: "┌(。Д。)┐"

Anonymous (Apocalypse Paradise): "We are reporting the Gray Gentleman to the Void Tree!"

National Football Old One (Reincarnation Paradise): "How did the brother above become anonymous?"

Anonymous (Apocalypse Paradise): "My name is just Anonymous, didn't expect that, did you?"

Bee: "o((⊙﹏⊙))o."

Witch Doctor (Sanctuary Paradise): "Report the Gray Gentleman!"

Anonymous (Apocalypse Paradise): "Reported."

Gray Gentleman (Overlord · Reincarnation Paradise): "This scapegoat is quite surprising."

Anonymous (Apocalypse Paradise): "Heh, if it wasn't done by you, the leader of the Rule-Breakers, could it have been done by a Hunter or a Battle Angel?"

Bee: "(* ̄︿ ̄)"

Seeing these comments, Su Xiao felt very gratified; having the Gray Gentleman take the blame was what he most wanted to see.

In Su Xiao's view, the reason for this tendency in comments was both because the Gray Gentleman had the bonus of being a Rule-Breaker leader, and because too many Rule-Breakers had entered this Tree-Born World.

The entry qualifications for these Rule-Breakers were of unknown origin, nine times out of ten caused by the Gray Gentleman, which also led to the contractors who obtained their entry qualifications through normal means naturally feeling dissatisfied.

Now that this matter had occurred, it was naturally a big scapegoat pinned on the Gray Gentleman.

Inside the Unseen House, Su Xiao had Bahar clean up the corpses. He walked to the innermost wall and activated the World Shop, which looked like a vending machine. It had an old-fashioned screen on it; while it didn't look advanced overall, it was unusually sturdy. Su Xiao estimated that even if he kicked it directly, he wouldn't be able to shake it in the slightest.

【Hint: You have activated the Tree-Born World · World Shop.】

【Current Killing Merit: 147 points,】

【The following items can be exchanged using Killing Merit.】

1. Chapter of Greed (World-class).

Effect: This item is incomplete, and the whereabouts of the missing one-third are unknown, but this item can still be used normally.

Hint: After each person holds the Chapter of Greed, 10 Soul Manifestations will gradually be generated within it (the generation of Soul Manifestations will be determined based on the holder's own experiences and will not form Soul Manifestations completely unrelated to the holder).

Hint: Among the 10 Soul Manifestations, for every one the Chapter of Greed holder defeats, they will obtain a certain amount of Golden Skill Points (if the Chapter of Greed can be completed, the Golden Skill Points obtained after defeating the Soul Manifestations will be increased).

Inventory quantity: 1

Exchange price: 1000 Killing Merit points.

2. Spread of Hunger.

Effect: An item required by Old Gods or Old God-type entities; after absorbing this item, the upper limit of Origin Energy can be significantly increased.

Inventory quantity: 1.

Exchange price: 100 Killing Merit points.

3. Angelic Battle Intent

Effect: A profession/bloodline transformation item, with extremely high compatibility for Light-type and Healing-type, capable of bringing dual effects to Healing-type abilities.

Dual ability effect: Healing abilities cause recovery effects on friendly forces and cause Light-type damage to enemy forces (the judgment of friendly/enemy forces will be based on the personal will of the ability user).

Inventory quantity: 1.

Exchange price: 100 Killing Merit points.

4. Elemental Weapon.

Effect: After mastering this ability, you can grant temporary elemental attributes to weapons (initially, only Wind attribute can be granted).

Inventory quantity: 1.

Exchange price: 100 Killing Merit points.

【Hint: The above are all items that can be exchanged in this stage. When this Killing Competition enters the second stage, the items that can be exchanged in the World Shop will be further improved.】

【Hint: The Chapter of Greed (World-class) is the highest-tier value item refreshed in this World Shop; subsequent refreshes of the World Shop will not feature items of equal value.】

Only one supply crate had been dropped in this Killing Competition so far, meaning it was in the first stage, so it was normal for there to be only four items in the World Shop.

This World Shop could be said to be unconventional; according to the standard process, low-priced items are usually refreshed first, and as subsequent rounds of refreshes occur, the value of the items becomes higher and higher.

The World Shop was the opposite, refreshing the highest-tier exchange items on the first try.

Su Xiao had previously obtained a 【Chapter of Greed】 in the Dead City; now it seemed that was only a part of the 【Chapter of Greed (Complete)】.

Su Xiao could be certain that even if he spliced the piece he currently had onto it, the 【Chapter of Greed (World-class)】 would still not be complete. In fact, there was no need to specifically seek out other parts in pursuit of completeness; this item belonged to the category where having one piece made it usable, and the larger it was, the higher the benefits that could be obtained from it. Su Xiao estimated he didn't have the luck to collect the whole thing.

Seeing the 【Chapter of Greed (World-class)】, Su Xiao felt a faint pain in his neck. Within the Chapter of Greed he possessed, he had been beheaded many times by the Old Saint Cultivator, and he didn't know how many times the Life Butcher had beheaded him.

Su Xiao hadn't challenged the Third Soul Manifestation, the Tenth Generation Tianba, Daughter of Qin, to this day, partly because he didn't have the time, and partly because the Daughter of Qin's tactics were relatively unsolvable.

Within the Chapter of Greed, the physical attributes of Su Xiao's spiritual body were definitely not as high as the Soul Manifestation he was challenging; this was certain, so he could only win through technique.

The problem was that after the Soul Manifestations were generated, they were not immutable "programs"; they would also remember Su Xiao's fighting style.

For example, the Daughter of Qin was a dual master of Sword Art + Close-Quarters Combat. After sensing that her Sword Art was inferior to Su Xiao's, every time Su Xiao went, the Daughter of Qin would suddenly appear behind him and use a close-quarters grappling lock to firmly pin him down.

Facts proved that being hugged by a girl who had mastered the Close-Quarters Combat Grandmaster ability felt not good at all, let alone the fact that his strength was not as high as hers.

Su Xiao hadn't challenged the Chapter of Greed for a long time, partly because the feeling of being hugged to death was terrible, and partly because he wasn't very satisfied with the benefits obtained after defeating the Soul Manifestations; the time spent and the deaths paid were far higher than the benefits obtained.

Now it seemed this was normal; the 【Chapter of Greed】 he held was only a small part of the complete body, so the benefits obtained after victory were naturally not high.

Su Xiao was very interested in the 【Chapter of Greed (World-class)】, but unfortunately, the exchange price for this item was as high as 1000 Killing Merit points.

Su Xiao tried to consult the Void Tree on how many Golden Skill Points could be obtained in total if he could clear the 【Chapter of Greed (World-class)】.

Because of his low reputation with the Void Tree, Su Xiao didn't get a specific number, only learning that after defeating the 10 Soul Manifestations, the total Golden Skill Points obtained would be no less than 45 points.

This was still because the 【Chapter of Greed (World-class)】 was incomplete; if he added the piece he currently had, Su Xiao estimated the Golden Skill Points he could gain would be around 50 points.

Not to mention he already had one Chapter of Greed, even if he didn't, a benefit of 45 Golden Skill Points was worth fighting for; this could raise several abilities to Lv. EX.

The problem was that the required Killing Merit was too much. Although he had caught Aiduo'er, everyone had a temper, not to mention Aiduo'er was an Eighth-Tier contractor; if he forced her to sign a contract, she would likely rather die than submit.

Aiduo'er's subtle implication now was that as long as Su Xiao could control her, she was willing to be a tool person, but once Su Xiao was slightly negligent, Aiduo'er would immediately slip away.

Aiduo'er was not stupid, which meant that in the future, when the situation was dangerous, she would seize the opportunity to escape. This was also the reason she was willing to pay 10,000 Soul Coins every day; it meant letting Su Xiao give her some breathing room and hope for survival. When she was in despair, she would choose to end her own life.

Su Xiao had known from the beginning that using Aiduo'er to farm Killing Merit wouldn't last long, but man proposes, God disposes.

"You, come here."

Su Xiao looked at Aiduo'er. Aiduo'er, who still had lingering fears because of the Killing Merit farming just now, walked over reluctantly. That feeling was like a middle school student who hadn't finished their homework being called to the podium by the teacher to share their thoughts; her legs were slower than Kingsley's aunt's.

Aiduo'er activated the World Shop to check, but her expression was indifferent, and she even scratched her face with her index finger. Did she not like the things inside? No, she was craving them like crazy, but what was the use? She didn't even have 1 point of Killing Merit and could only watch.

Seeing this, Su Xiao asked, "Angelic Battle Intent, interested?"

"That goes without saying, but this thing has nothing to do with me. For a salted fish like me, mining is a good enough benefit. What World Shop, it's more like a God Shop."

Aiduo'er couldn't help but complain. Come to think of it, this was indeed a battle of gods. For example, people like Linlong · Alec, Shenyin, Tyrant, and the Slime-Anus-Piercing Brother, who were at the top of the battle power in other Eighth-Tier worlds, could only retreat to the second line this time.

Su Xiao pressed one hand on the World Shop, and after verification of the Brand, Inscription, etc., he began to exchange for items.

【Hint: You have consumed 100 Killing Merit points.】

【Hint: You have consumed 100 Killing Merit points.】

【You have obtained Angelic Battle Intent (Profession/Bloodline enhancement and transformation item).】

Su Xiao had only 47 Killing Merit points left. The 【Angelic Battle Intent】 appeared in his hand; it was a translucent empty shell the size of an apple, with a mini light angel made of energy inside, looking beautiful and magnificent.

If Aiduo'er obtained this item, her professional system, which she had developed to survive until now, would undergo a "stat-reset" style transformation. If she survived and returned to the Apocalypse Paradise this time and used the 【Angelic Battle Intent】, she would not only become an Eighth-Tier super healer but also have matching combat power. It belonged to the category of being able to heal as much as she could fight, and this was not developing two types of abilities, but specializing in one. Whether it was the investment of resources or the growth of abilities, it was exceptionally gratifying.

"Want it?"

As Su Xiao spoke, he held the 【Angelic Battle Intent】 and reached out toward Aiduo'er in front of him.

Aiduo'er looked straight at the 【Angelic Battle Intent】 and immediately nodded, answering:

"Want it!"

"In your dreams."

Bahar spoke up.

"??"

Aiduo'er, who had suffered a critical hit, only felt that life was meaningless. Seeing her expression, Bahar laughed unscrupulously and said:

"I can give it to you, but you have to cooperate with our subsequent plans."

"Really?"

Aiduo'er's expression became serious.

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak; he wouldn't guarantee anything.

"Then... how do I get a guarantee? We are not equal; the gap in strength is too large, so I never thought about cooperating with you as equals; it's simply unrealistic."

Aiduo'er showed the cleverness behind her flighty personality.

"Sign a contract."

Su Xiao spoke. Hearing her words, Aiduo'er gradually put on a mask of pain. Sign a contract with a Hunter from Reincarnation Paradise? Was she crazy?

"After the matter is accomplished, the 【Angelic Battle Intent】 will be the reward paid to you. Think about it yourself. If you don't cooperate, once I leave this room, you can escape using space items."

Su Xiao left this sentence and took Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Bahar out of the Unseen House, then closed the large iron gate, leaving Aiduo'er to consider it herself. His previous plan was that once they explored southward, he would execute Aiduo'er; carrying a captive who wanted to escape at any time was too risky.

In Su Xiao's view, the most brilliant way to capture someone alive was not to make them submit through intimidation or other means, but to make the captive follow voluntarily, and be the kind that was afraid of being left behind.

Just as they exited the iron gate into the alley, Su Xiao saw Caesar's frustrated expression. Apparently, Caesar hadn't been able to operate it and couldn't enter the Unseen House.

It could only be said that the Void Tree was still mighty. Su Xiao had never seen Caesar suffer such a big setback before; the World Shop was right in front of him, yet he couldn't touch it. This was more uncomfortable for him than giving Caesar a few slashes.

Su Xiao sat on the steps opposite. Half a minute later, Aiduo'er walked out of the Unseen House. She said, "Big Boss, you can't lie to me. I've decided to gamble once. What if I turn things around this time?"

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak, just threw a pill to Aiduo'er.

Aiduo'er, who caught the pill, looked suspicious. She smelled the pill between her fingers and asked, "Big Boss, what is this?"

"The antidote. You have 1 minute and 50 seconds left before the poison takes effect. After 5 minutes, you will die of cell lysis, like a rotten tomato."

Hearing this, Aiduo'er immediately recalled the sentence Su Xiao had just said: "If you don't cooperate, once I leave this room, you can escape using space items."

Aiduo'er muttered in her heart, this is the old schemer of Reincarnation Paradise. She tossed the pill into her mouth and chewed; the taste was surprisingly not bad. After chewing it up, it actually tasted like chocolate.

"Big Boss, will I really be okay?"

"..."

"Big Boss, I'm still very worried. Look at my beautiful face; if I dissolve into a pile, that would be the end!"

Su Xiao narrowed his eyes. He found that Aiduo'er was a bit of a chatterbox. Bahar, on the side, said, "I was just lying to you. You're not poisoned, and you won't undergo cell lysis."

"Phew~, you scared me to death."

"However, the pill you just ate is indeed a chronic deadly poison; it will take effect in about 3 days."

Hearing Bahar's words, Aiduo'er froze, accompanied by a sense of doubting life.

Aiduo'er would never know that she had never been poisoned from start to finish, including now. What she had just eaten was just Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's chocolate beans.

The most difficult chronic deadly poison in the world is the poison that does not exist. No matter what means are used, it cannot be detected, making people anxious and fearful that the poison will take effect. This is the poison of the heart.

As for why he didn't give Aiduo'er a chronic deadly poison, chronic deadly poisons are very expensive, more than a hundred times more expensive than deadly poisons, especially the type that only takes effect after several days.

Aiduo'er, who was "poisoned," was not so flighty anymore. Being treated with both kindness and severity, she increased her determination to gamble once.

Leaving the alley, Su Xiao and his group arrived at an inn, renting the entire second and third floors for 1 Soul Coin. The Vine-race boss was very enthusiastic and immediately closed the shop door, going to the kitchen to get busy with his wife, so as not to neglect the big client.

3 hours later, in a guest room on the third floor, Aiduo'er was soaking in a large wooden barrel, a folded towel covering her forehead. She took the fruit juice from the side, took a sip, and asked, "How much longer? I'm dizzy from soaking."

"Almost there, hold on."

Bahar, who was in charge of adding fire, yawned. This was repeating the previous operation to give Aiduo'er a special Overlord status.

The next morning at 9 o'clock, Su Xiao sat up from the bed. Having slept, he felt refreshed again. The reason for the delay was that Caesar needed to prepare more materials from this world to save time for subsequent Killing Merit farming.

Regarding the benefits of Killing Merit, Su Xiao wouldn't forget to give Caesar a share. Because many of the benefits obtained during the period could not be divided, he negotiated with Caesar to compensate with other supplies.

Having cooperated for so long, Caesar agreed without hesitation. In the end, Su Xiao used 100 ounces of Space-Time Power as Caesar's reward. Of course, this would only be paid if everything went smoothly and after returning to Reincarnation Paradise.

Everything was ready, and Su Xiao hurried to the scheduled assembly point. After leaving Ring Tree City, he headed toward the south side of the Ancient Capital.

Su Xiao was about to set off for the Great Ruins, but before that, he had to assemble with two good teammates.

In the four-person group of good teammates, Caesar was responsible for maximizing benefits, Su Xiao was the combat power, Wood was responsible for dealing with those weird enemies, and Zuiyas walked at the very front of the team; his immortality could prevent the team's combat power from dropping during exploration.

It could be said that after the four-person group of good teammates cooperated, they were quite formidable, but it wasn't without drawbacks. In times of crisis, it was very easy to kick a "good teammate" into a pit first and then turn around and retreat.

They were all "good teammates" who would stab each other in the back, but as for who exactly stabbed the knife, anyway, it wasn't the enemy, so don't delve into it.

On the way, Aiduo'er started to get close to Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. Her little thought was that later, when riding Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang to hurry, if they encountered danger, this big dog, as the servant of the beheading Night, must have a very fast escape speed.

After paying many snacks unique to the Apocalypse Paradise, plus trading 200 Soul Coins to Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Aiduo'er rode onto Xiang Bubu's back with a smile on her face.

Five minutes later, Aiduo'er, with a band-aid on the bridge of her nose and a red spot in the center of her forehead, sniffed her bloody snot and followed Su Xiao on foot.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang used to be Su Xiao's land mount, but why didn't he ride it later? Riding it too much gave him a headache, especially a headache in the forehead.

When Su Xiao arrived at the gap in the south fog wall, he saw Zuiyas and Wood waiting there from afar.

Aiduo'er also saw these two people. Although the distance was still a bit far, her heart tightened. Just at this moment, she felt a weight on her head; it was Bahar landing on it.

Bahar looked in the direction of Wood and Zuiyas and said to Aiduo'er:

"Let me tell you some precautions to avoid your sudden death. See the Devil-race over there? That's Wood. The one on the other side is Zuiyas. Facing these two people, there are three things you need to pay attention to.

1. Never touch a black jar that Wood takes out, don't even look at it. Even if you look at it, don't focus your gaze on it for more than 10 seconds. Besides this, don't sign any contracts with Wood. When you talk to him, you cannot say words like contract, sign, agree, etc. Also, never touch any strange lines on the wall; that might be Wood's two-dimensional ability. If a three-dimensional creature touches that kind of two-dimensional existence, they will lose a layer of skin even if they don't die.

2. Don't have any physical contact with Zuiyas. In a dangerous situation, if you touch him, he will devour you until not even bones are left within 0.7 seconds. This is not malice; it's his instinctual reaction. When you feel that Zuiyas is amiable or feel a sense of closeness to him, tell us immediately. That is not his personality charm, but that your brain has been invaded by a "Marrow-Parasite Worm," changing your cognition."

Hearing Bahar's words, Aiduo'er swallowed her saliva, thinking to herself, what kind of monsters are these.

"And the most important point, never believe a single word from Zuiyas and Wood."

"Mm."

Aiduo'er nodded very hard. She asked in a low voice, "Are we going to negotiate with them, or?"

"Negotiate? No, these are our teammates; we will act together later."

"!"

Aiduo'er suddenly stopped. The road ahead was too dark; she felt the world had lost its color.

"Is this a new member?"

Zuiyas smiled and spoke, even waving at Aiduo'er. Aiduo'er, who had just been educated by Bahar, nodded stiffly and smiled.

"Judging by this smile, Bahar must have spoken ill of us."

Wood spoke. Hearing this, Bahar said, "How is that possible? Am I the kind of bird that speaks ill of people behind their backs?"

"Bai Ye, I don't remember you having the habit of supporting others."

Wood, wearing a purple-black suit, looked Aiduo'er up and down. Without waiting for others to answer, he continued:

"It seems this is the special Overlord unit, Ms. Aiduo'er Papa. Bai Ye, is the Killing Merit farming going smoothly?"

Wood's pupil flames condensed a little, as if he were smiling.

Hearing this, Aiduo'er was shocked. She couldn't figure out how this secret was exposed.

"It's going smoothly enough."

Su Xiao wasn't surprised that Wood guessed this; after all, he was the most sinister one among the "good teammates."

"I understand. Bai Ye, with such a good thing, are you prepared to share it with us? Just like when we went to the Nightmare Ward before, you shared it with me."

Zuiyas, with a thick-skinned face, spoke. He mentioned the Nightmare Ward, meaning he hadn't forgotten how miserably he was pitted by Su Xiao there; the impression Lamp Sister left on him was too profound.

"Why not discuss it? I'll pay some chips to have a sip of soup in this?"

Zuiyas wanted a piece of the pie, and Wood had a similar attitude.

"It's 11:32 now. In 28 minutes, all participants will know her location."

Wood and Zuiyas understood Su Xiao's words in a second. Although they wouldn't share the Killing Merit farmed through the special Overlord, Aiduo'er would attract many participants every day. Killing these participants could also obtain Killing Merit, which was much better than aimless searching.

"That's not bad either. Then it's settled. We will freely hunt the participants attracted by Aiduo'er Papa. If too many are attracted at the same time, the three of us will temporarily join forces. Oh right, Caesar, are you interested in this?"

Zuiyas looked at Caesar. Caesar spread his hands, indicating he had no combat power.

In fact, from the beginning, Wood and Zuiyas were not coveting the Killing Merit farmed through the special Overlord status, but were eyeing the enemy-killing benefits from the participants Aiduo'er Papa attracted every day.

Reaching a consensus, the team set off for the "Hot Jungle." Zuiyas was in front, Bahar on the left, Wood on the right, Su Xiao in the back, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Caesar, and Aiduo'er were in the middle of the team.

All around were tall and straight trees. Passing through this woodland, ahead was the "Hot Jungle."

The fallen leaves on the ground were soft to step on, and the tree canopy above blocked much of the sunlight. The sunlight that filtered through cast large patches of light spots on the leaves on the ground.

Su Xiao looked at the time; it was already 11:58. Aiduo'er's coordinates would soon be known to all participants. At that time, participants in the nearby area would swarm in, which also meant the "fishing" that the three good teammates did once a day was about to begin.

Su Xiao, walking at the back of the team, raised his hand, his thumb and middle finger pressing against each other.

Snap~

The crisp snapping sound spread. Aiduo'er looked back upon hearing the sound, only to find that Su Xiao had disappeared. When she turned her head, she found that Wood, Zuiyas, Caesar, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Bahar had all disappeared. In the woodland covered with fallen leaves, only she remained.

The forest wind blew, blowing up a few leaves. Aiduo'er stopped and stood there, stunned.

Aiduo'er, with her mouth agape, looked around. She really hadn't felt anything, and the temporary teammates around her had all disappeared. Seeing this, Aiduo'er smiled and muttered with extreme confidence:

"Heh~, did I walk into an illusion? Old tricks, open!"

Aiduo'er clapped her hands together. Dozens of meters away, diagonally opposite her, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who was squatting on a tree fork, yawned, not understanding what Aiduo'er was doing.

Time reached 12:00. A fluorescent white halo appeared above Aiduo'er's head, and her location was known to all participants.

The hunting rules for today had changed. Aiduo'er was no longer the prey, but the bait. Now, they were just waiting for the first "lucky one" to arrive at this place. At that time, that "lucky one" would face Su Xiao, Wood, and Zuiyas simultaneously.
