Chapter 3491: Blade of Darkness

On the open apron, the cargo had been loaded, and the staff were doing one last overall inspection for the transport spaceship to avoid any slips during transport.

Su Xiao was currently in a disguised state, maintaining vigilance with other company guards.

Using the Ancient Mask to disguise this time, Su Xiao discovered one thing. Before, when he disguised as a palace knight at the Dragon Academy, after entering the disguise state, he felt his whole body was wrapped in a layer of illusory mist. In the eyes of outsiders, this mist layer was the palace knight's full-body armor, etc.

This disguise had a qualitative change. It wasn't the feeling of being wrapped in a mist layer before, but really constituted the guard's single-soldier combat armor. The single-soldier armor was a partial black camouflage color, and the helmet and mask were sealed structures, equipped with an air filtration system.

No matter how you look at it, this was a bit beyond the scope of disguise, but like realistic armor. If the Ancient Mask really became a "Daddy-level" object, then could its disguise state replicate all of a person's abilities?

Su Xiao had a feeling that he couldn't keep this mask for long. Because he was a Law-Breaker + Hunter, he was naturally at odds with Daddy-level items, belonging to the kind that Daddy-level items disliked the most.

Originally, Su Xiao thought he could use the Ancient Mask for a long time. Now it seemed he underestimated the growth speed of Daddy-level potential objects.

Su Xiao didn't feel at a loss. Right now, he could use it for one day, so he would use it for one day. He didn't invest costs in the Ancient Mask. First of all, this mask was found by Benny treasure hunting. The "Faceless" used to fuse with it actually had no cost. When bombing the Dawn Paradise, he accidentally bombed the Faceless Man·Pet·Peber to death, and then obtained this thing.

The side door of the transport spaceship opened, turning into a staircase shape. The first to board the spaceship were several men and women in suits, as well as a serious-looking man in Imperial military uniform wearing a military cap. His expression was tight, and he looked like someone who wasn't good at talking.

According to the plan, the one who should have come this time was an executioner. Although executioners are powerful, they tend to be the Empire's weapons. Once defeated, the energy cores in their bodies will explode.

The one who came clearly wasn't an executioner. The temperament was different. Executioners tend to be dead soldiers. The young officer who came was powerful, that's true, but that kind of aloof, cold aura wasn't something an executioner could possess.

Beside this officer was a smiling middle-aged chubby man, that is, a company manager. Facing others, the young officer ignored them, including facing two company executives, he didn't pay much attention. Instead, facing the middle-aged chubby man, the young officer's attitude was quite good, sometimes even squeezing out a smile, which made the two company executives nodding and bowing on the side very envious.

The main reason was that the daughter of this company manager had a special relationship with this young officer. Only because the young officer was too busy, the two couldn't get married for a long time.

This young officer was named Rhine·Gold, known as the Hand of the Empire. Although he only had a field officer rank, this was already the highest military rank he could reach without a fleet under his command. For Rhine·Gold, military rank represented more of a representative nature, as well as convenience for entering certain occasions.

The dozen or so heavyweights who boarded the transport spaceship, besides Rhine·Gold and his future father-in-law, also included his fiancée as a technician, whose expression was slightly panicked. This woman wasn't the kind of top-tier beautiful, but she looked very comfortable, natural, and had a clean temperament. She was the first choice for a wife. The remaining few were the company's three top-tier employees, as well as two company middle-level personnel.

This transport was very important. The C5N2-type superconductor independently developed by the company had only completed its first batch of mass production as of today. The price paid was unimaginable to outsiders.

The transport and handover this time, according to common sense, the company's three top-tier employees escorting would be more than enough. The probability of hostile factions on Pandora Star snatching this cargo was very low. With the Zerg's network level, it was impossible to steal the intelligence of this transport team.

Rhine·Gold's joining, not to say it was using a cannon to hit a mosquito, but it was also not very comparable. For this level of escort, sending such a character was truly a bit exaggerated.

Considering that the person in charge of this transport team was the future father-in-law of Colonel Rhine·Gold, everything made sense.

Rhine·Gold's arrival also changed the transport plan. For example, the "Fission-type Gravity Bomb" that should have been placed in the cargo hold was withdrawn. No matter how you look at it, this cargo transport involved other matters, such as political stance, high-end technology negotiation, etc.

A group of heavyweights boarded the spaceship, and then it was the turn of a group of guards to appear. In most stories, if an accident happens, these guards are either cannon fodder to highlight how cruel the villain is, or miscellaneous soldiers who don't fire their guns and go to send their heads.

After Su Xiao boarded the transport spaceship, he sat in the seats against the wall on both sides of the tail cabin, and followed other guards to fasten his seat belt.

The roar of the spaceship engine came, and the experience in the tail cabin wasn't very good, until it completely rose into the sky and stabilized.

Several guards sitting nearby talked and laughed in low voices. They were talking about where to go to prostitute after this job was over, while some controlled their masks to shrink and lit cigarettes to puff out clouds.

Su Xiao leaned back and took a nap. Disguising as a small fry this time, he had to be safe before making a move. What kind of drama does a small fry have?

The voyage of this transport team totaled 3 hours and 10 minutes. Su Xiao prepared to make a move after 1 hour. According to Caesar's intelligence, the entire spaceship could be divided into four parts: cockpit, front cabin, middle cabin, and tail cabin.

The front cabin was the area where Rhine·Gold, company manager·Womis, and the company's three top-tier employees were located.

The middle cabin was the largest, the enemy area where cargo was stored, where 52 Imperial soldiers were guarding. As for the tail cabin at the very back, it was 129 company guards.

To put it bluntly, these guards were here to play soy sauce, and it was just the attitude the company showed. The truly core defensive force was still Colonel Rhine·Gold, as well as the company's three top-tier employees, and finally 52 Imperial soldiers.

Su Xiao was responsible for the front cabin, Baha was the main force for the middle cabin, with Xiang Bubu Wang assisting, and as for the guards in the tail cabin, Xiang Bubu would clean them up along the way.

At that time, Xiang Bubu Wang would hack the spaceship's central control system, as well as the guards' single-soldier armor, and then open the spaceship's tail cabin door, controlling the guards' single-soldier armor, letting them jump off the spaceship like dumplings.

Time passed second by second. Suddenly, noisy sounds came from the front cabin, and then the entire spaceship shook, and a harsh alarm sound appeared.

Su Xiao looked at the corridor leading to the front cabin. A dozen guards who had received orders had already rushed over.

Seeing this scene, Su Xiao guessed a possibility: they had met peers. Others were also eyeing this transport spaceship.

Su Xiao just prepared to take action, when the flashing red alarm light above went out, the urgent alarm sound also subsided, the white light lit up again, and everything returned to normal.

Not long after, a company middle-level person with an ugly face walked into the tail cabin. He said impatiently: "You, you, and you few, follow me."

This well-dressed company middle-level person left this sentence, turned and walked to the side corridor. Seeing this, the guard captain tentatively asked: "Boss, where are we going this time?"

"Where is there so much fart talk? If I tell you to follow, hurry up."

The company middle-level person was clearly touched by bad luck. After glancing at the guard captain, he cursed "bad luck" in a low voice and walked in front.

"You few, hurry up, don't be stunned!"

The guard captain's tone was rough, clearly wanting to find someone to vent his anger.

Su Xiao unfastened the X-shaped seat belt, got up and followed the few guards in front toward the front cabin. He wanted to see what happened. If the opportunity was right, he would make a move. Anyway, it had been nearly 50 minutes since takeoff.

Passing through the slightly cramped side corridor, Su Xiao arrived in the spacious and bright front cabin. Here, not only were there long sofas, massage chairs, etc., but also an open small bar.

The smell of blood spread here. Su Xiao looked at the source. Several corpses lay on the ground. These people were all wearing Imperial soldier combat uniforms. Their necks were soft, as if all the bones inside were shattered. Someone had disguised as a soldier, wanting to control this spaceship.

Su Xiao looked around. The company's three top-tier employees were drinking at the bar. Nearby, two company middle-level personnel were talking on communicators.

At the four-person square table on the other side sat a young officer, that is, the Hand of the Empire·Rhine·Gold. Opposite him was a middle-aged chubby man, as well as a woman wearing spaceship technician clothes, whose expression was slightly panicked. This woman wasn't the kind of top-tier beautiful, but she looked very comfortable, natural, and had a clean temperament. She was the first choice for a wife.

Besides these people, there were three people who were not expected. These three were all contractors, namely Cain and his two team members.

Among these two team members, there was a sturdy man with a ponytail. His name was Alon, Cain's deputy leader. The two were one magic tank and one power tank, always rushing to the front, and were the two great soul figures of Valhalla.

The last person was a black-silk long-legged imperial sister. This look was charm-type. As soon as she stood there, the company's three top-tier employees' eyes were about to catch fire.

Cain could participate in this event, indicating that he had already mixed well in the Imperial and corporate camps. After all, he was the leader of a large adventure team, and of course, he wasn't a simple character.

"Overestimating one's capabilities."

Alon spat at the corpses on the ground. This seemed to be an insult, but in fact, it wasn't. Alon was testing. Were there any accomplices of these robbers present? As long as anyone's aura fluctuated slightly, his domain could sense it.

"You few, clean up the corpses."

The company middle-level person who led the way left this sentence and walked to the young officer's side with a careful expression, explaining with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.

The young officer, that is, the Hand of the Empire·Rhine·Gold, didn't care about these. He had retired from the battlefield for a few days. He had long been used to this kind of sudden event. The battlefield was much crueler than this. This escort mission was like a vacation.

Rhine·Gold looked at his fiancée opposite, whose face was slightly pale. This iron-blooded officer poured a glass of hot water for his girlfriend.

"*Hiss hiss~*, everyone, listen to me, you are dumbasses."

In the spaceship's broadcast, such a sentence suddenly came. Everyone in the front cabin was stunned.

No one noticed that Su Xiao, who was pretending to clean up the corpses, had quietly arrived near the three company top-tier employees at some point.

The three people drinking at the bar, after hearing Baha's broadcast, all knew something was wrong, and they walked quickly toward the middle cabin.

When the three were within two meters of Su Xiao, Su Xiao lifted the disguise of the Ancient Mask. His appearance suddenly recovered, and the single-soldier armor on his body disappeared without a trace.

A black short sword appeared in Su Xiao's hand. This short sword was named 【Dark Walker】, a weapon with Abyss characteristics.

This short sword had two major core characteristics: 1. If a single attack causes damage higher than 20% of the enemy's maximum health limit, it will cause the enemy to die immediately, and immediately restore the user's 100% health.

2. After holding this weapon, you lose 5% of your maximum health per second, and you must wait at least 30 seconds before you can remove the weapon. During this period, you cannot restore health by any means other than this weapon.

The company's three top-tier employees were not easy to deal with, and they had to be killed in a short time. To put it another way, these three top-tier employees were the three strongest people in the corporate faction.

The moment Su Xiao lifted the disguise of the Ancient Mask, the dark blade had already appeared in his hand. This weapon emitting black smoke pierced from under the ear of a company top-tier employee the next second, and pierced out from above the temple on the other side.

This top-tier employee named Jerry had huge fear on his face in an instant, and his eyes turned pitch black.

The short sword was pulled out after one stab, and a wisp of blood beads was dragged into the air.

"Blade Dao Knife·Time!"

*Dong~*

A shock spread out. Su Xiao leaned forward, dodging a punch from the top-tier employee in front, and stabbed upward with the dark blade in his hand.

*Pfft~*

The moment the blade tip poked out from the top of the head of this top-tier employee, besides disbelief, there was no other expression on his face. He probably never thought he would die so simply and suddenly.

While the second top-tier employee was falling, Su Xiao had already arrived in front of the third top-tier employee. This top-tier employee named Crow was now terrified.

He naturally understood the strength of his two colleagues. If it weren't for the company's generous treatment, the three of them wouldn't have looked at the company at all.

But now, his two colleagues had died suddenly like this, which suddenly made Crow find the fear when he was still weak. He shouted extremely fast: "I am not the company's..."

Crow was really scared. The dignity of a strong man had long been thrown into the gutter. Actually, it was no wonder he was like this. Even as the Hand of the Empire·Rhine·Gold, his expression changed slightly at this time.

In the domain of Time, the speed of top-tier employee·Crow slowed down by a large margin. Su Xiao gave a straight kick with penetrating power. This kick didn't pursue destruction, but speed and power penetration.

*Bang! *

Top-tier employee·Crow was kicked into a flaw. Just as he was about to kneel on one knee powerlessly, the dark blade in Su Xiao's hand had already pierced from the side of his jaw.

Top-tier employee·Crow even felt the cold blade pierce his tongue and go straight into his brain marrow. After that, his eyes went black, and he knew nothing.

Su Xiao pulled the dark blade out of the enemy's skull. *Plop, plop, plop*, three sounds, the three top-tier employees fell to the ground one after another this time.

【You have killed top-tier employee·Jerry】

【You have killed top-tier employee·Mo·Fahu.】

【You have killed top-tier employee·Crow】

【You have killed the company's three top-tier employees in a row, you obtain 18.7% World Source.】

【You obtain 2,829 Soul Coins.】

【You obtain Immortal-grade Treasure Chest·Greed's Thought.】

From the kill rewards, it could be seen that the three top-tier employees were not weak at all. Their strength was likely at the level of the Four-Born Evil Ghosts. But right now, they were all killed by Su Xiao in a flash. This was the power of Abyss-characteristic equipment.

"Cain, you go to the cargo hold, leave this to me."

Su Xiao spoke in a low voice. Cain, who was shocked on the spot by his triple kill, had his cheeks twitching violently after hearing this.

The black-silk imperial sister beside Cain felt her scalp numb. She had a killing god in front and the Hand of the Empire·Rhine·Gold behind. This position was a death position.

"You fart, Gold, let's join forces to destroy him."

Cain's deputy leader Alon shouted, trying to block the black pot that was being buckled on his head.

Spatial fluctuations suddenly came beside Alon. He stepped on the ground, causing the entire spaceship to shake. Su Xiao, who attacked by Dragon Shadow Flash, was shaken back.

"*Pfft! * I am a tank-type! Also, you are the dumbasses!"

Alon said this with a ferocious smile, but suddenly, his eyes blurred, his body felt numb, and a tingling numbness came from his neck. He reached out to touch it and touched the handle of a short sword stuck in his neck.

For an Eighth-Tier top tank, being pierced in the neck could at most be considered a serious injury, but a chill rose in Alon's heart. This knife not only had real damage but also high soul damage. Piercing into a vital part like the neck caused his health to drop by a notch.

"Just a flesh wound..."

*Plop. *

Alon fell to the ground, his eyes turned pitch black and he died. Cain, who was surging with magic energy on the side, was stunned. He kicked Alon lightly and said: "Alon, stop playing, get up!"

After kicking twice, Cain found something wrong. In fact, he had already sensed it, but he didn't quite believe it. An Eighth-Tier top tank was killed by a knife? Even if you tell a joke, you wouldn't tell it like this.

"Cain, do you want to betray me?"

Su Xiao raised his hand, and the short sword stuck in Alon's neck pulled out by itself and flew back into his hand.

Cain blocked the black-silk imperial sister beside him with one hand. It was often rumored in the team that the two had an affair, but in fact, there was no such thing. Cain would take care of every team member; this was the responsibility he had to bear while enjoying the rights of the leader.

Cain quickly judged the situation. The Hand of the Empire·Rhine·Gold behind him was indeed strong, but because this transport involved the intermarriage of two families, as well as more political stances, Rhine·Gold's future father-in-law and future wife were both involved in this transport team.

Cain could determine that Rhine·Gold's first priority wasn't to deal with the enemy with him, but to protect his future father-in-law and wife.

Opposite, Su Xiao, holding the dark blade, was like a death god claiming lives, strong

Actually, Kain misunderstood. The reason Su Xiao had such an unreasonable attack method was mainly because of the Dark Blade in his hand. This assassination weapon, crafted from the Abyss Six-Piece Set, had truly formidable attack performance. In a head-on fight, this weapon was inferior to Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan; the mere fact that it crazily consumed health points meant it could not be used as a primary weapon.

Kain also thought of another point: such an incident occurring this time definitely required a scapegoat. Let the Hand of the Empire take the blame? Just imagining it was impossible.

Therefore, in Kain's view, this matter was unavoidable. He discovered that this wasn't about someone pinning the blame on him, but rather that he had long since, unknowingly, become the one in the pot.

"Damn it!"

After showing his refined and gentle side, Kain grabbed his subordinates, smashed through the cabin wall of the spaceship, and retreated.

Only four people remained in the front cabin. Su Xiao put away the Dark Blade in his hand and drew the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan from his waist.

It could only be said that this world was worthy of being "super-doubled" three times and then hit with a "King Bomb" by Caesar. The tier limit of this world was definitely not just Eighth-Tier. For example, the Hand of the Empire opposite him, Rhine Gold, gave Su Xiao a sense of threat.

Su Xiao and Rhine Gold disappeared from their spots simultaneously. When they reappeared, they were less than two meters apart.

*Clang! *

The long blade and the iron fist collided, sparks flying everywhere. A shockwave spread out, causing electrical sparks to splash on the surrounding cabin walls. All the lights in the cabin exploded, the glass of the portholes shattered, and a strong wind blew in.

Su Xiao did not believe he had reached the pinnacle of the Eighth Tier. The span from the Eighth Tier to the Ninth Tier was larger than expected. The Physical Missionary Anderson he had encountered in the Tree-Born World had strength close to Su Xiao's current level.

Now, Su Xiao had encountered another one similar to him; the opponent's name was Rhine Gold.

*Bang! * With a sound, an airwave spread. Su Xiao pushed Rhine Gold back with his blade. This guy opposite him was a strength and speed type with ridiculously strong practical combat experience. His pair of black alloy arms did not fall behind even when clashing with Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan. It was likely that the Empire had invested a great cost to craft them for Rhine Gold.

*Rip~*

The tattered leather glove on Rhine Gold's hand shattered. He unbuttoned the top two buttons of his military uniform, and the look in his eyes changed. He hadn't encountered an opponent for a very, very long time. This strong enemy he had chanced upon now required him to bet his life to deal with. This feeling of his blood beginning to boil was something he hadn't felt in a long time.

"Gold."

A weak voice came from behind Rhine Gold. Hearing this, Rhine Gold stomped on the ground, and the cabin area where his fiancée and future father-in-law were located broke away, falling along with his future father-in-law's exclamation.

"See you later."

Rhine Gold turned and leaped off the spaceship. After two sonic booms, he was already holding his beautiful wife with one hand, while his future father-in-law was being carried in his other hand.

Bahar flew out of the cargo hold. As soon as the door opened, the smell of blood drifted out. On the open space toward the front of the cargo hold, the corpses of Imperial soldiers were strewn everywhere.

Whether it was Xiang Bubu, Bahar, Amu, or Benny, their combat power or their respective areas of expertise were gradually growing. This was the Potential Activation Authorization Su Xiao had obtained a long time ago. Simply put, the higher the comprehensive evaluation Su Xiao received during each world settlement, the stronger the potential activation Xiang Bubu, Amu, Bahar, and Benny would receive at the Attribute Enhancement Hall.

"Boss, just as the manifest provided by Caesar stated, there are 150 kilograms of C5N2 superconductors and 27,000 kilograms of life ore."

If life ore were calculated by the kilogram, then 1 kilogram = 10 units = 100 points of biological energy. After conversion, 27,000 kilograms of life ore equaled 2.7 million points of biological energy.

As expected of the Company, a single shipment of life ore was such a huge amount. This quantity of life ore confirmed one thing for Su Xiao: the Zerg faction's mining capability was completely incomparable to the Company's.

The transport ship was on full-automatic pilot, which meant Xiang Bubu Wang was controlling it. Just as Su Xiao was about to contact Xiang Bubu Wang, he felt something lightly bump his leg. Immediately, Xiang Bubu Wang appeared in his line of sight.

"Go to the designated location for deployment."

"Woof."

Xiang Bubu Wang barked and began to gnash its teeth rapidly. Please don't laugh; it wasn't biting the air. This was a custom-made input device the Bana Gnomes had made for Xiang Bubu. It was inconvenient for dog paws to operate keyboards or control panels. Considering Xiang Bubu Wang's top-tier ability to tear down houses, its Bana Gnome friends had made this set of equipment that looked like a mouthguard but was actually an input device.

Su Xiao activated his Law-Extinguishing Talent, Shadow Hunter. The next second, the source energy about to dissipate in the surroundings surged over and was absorbed by his Devouring Core.

A list of skills appeared in Su Xiao's line of sight. The effect of his Shadow Hunter ability was simple and brutal: after killing an enemy, he could seize the enemy's ability, then use the Devouring Core to devour it, converting it into Soul Energy, which was stored to enhance Green Qing Qing Gang Ying and Green Shadow King.

Su Xiao chose the "Ace Employee's ** Enhancement Ability" and used the Devouring Core to devour it. He had already discovered that devouring this type of ability that boosted physique yielded more Soul Energy. He had chosen wrong after killing the Gray Gentleman previously.

Soon, the source energy absorbed by the Devouring Core was converted into Soul Energy and stored. The Soul Energy reserve reached 337%, enough to upgrade Green Qing Qing Gang Ying by 3 levels or Green Shadow King by 1 level.

After the transport ship flew at overload for ten minutes, Su Xiao had Xiang Bubu Wang unload the cargo, opening the cargo hold directly at high altitude to drop the supplies below.

Watching the metal cargo boxes being dropped one by one, and opening parachutes of various sizes shortly after, Su Xiao took a bundle of bombs handed to him by Bahar, pulled the pin, and threw them into the interior of the spaceship, after which he leaped out through the breach in the front.

*Thud! *

The explosion came from behind. Su Xiao hadn't fallen far when a Demon Flame Dragon flew over and carried him onto its back.

In the dense forest below, the alloy cargo boxes had just landed when they were swallowed by Spore Tanks. By the time the transport ship hit the ground and emitted a deafening explosion, the Spore Tanks and Demon Beasts had already retreated.

Three hours later, in Nova City, inside the control center responsible for tracking this "M7-level heavy transport ship," the staff wearing headsets were silent. On the screen in front, the image showed a pile of dog heads with various expressions, but no one dared to laugh.

General Sander, who had arrived upon receiving the news, looked at the big screen with a calm expression, completely ignoring the Company personnel beside him who were sweating profusely. He said, "This is the Company's security measure? Good, very good."

Leaving these words behind, General Sander took his secretary and left the control center, returning to the command cabin of the main ship. Just as he entered, Rhine Gold, still smelling of gunpowder, stood up.

"Sit."

General Sander, with his gray, tough short hair, raised a hand. Rhine Gold had been cultivated by him personally. One could tell from their shared surname and similar names that the two were related.

"Tell me, why did you fail this time? Because of that precious fiancée of yours?"

"Yes."

Rhine Gold nodded and admitted it directly. Failure was failure; no matter what reason one used to explain it, it was still failure.

"Who was our opponent this time?"

After General Sander lit a cigarette, he tossed the cigarette case and lighter to his nephew opposite him.

Rhine Gold picked up the metal lighter, *snap*, lit the flame, and said with burning eyes, "The opponent this time was the Empire's Third-Class Felon, Kuku Lin Bai Ye."

That night at 6:00 PM, in front of the main base nest.

Su Xiao watched as the last alloy box of life ore was poured into the crack of the nest, after which it was converted into biological energy, bringing the biological energy reserve in their nest to 2.74 million points.

In addition to this large sum of biological energy, the usury promised by the Spider Queen was also on the way. Calculating the time, it would definitely arrive before 7:00 PM tonight.

In this way, the biological energy stored in the nest would reach 4.24 million points. If he cultivated elite Demon Beasts, he could cultivate 84,800 of them; if he cultivated Demon Flame Dragons, he could cultivate 1,060.

Considering the goal this time was to go and hit the Pro-Peace Faction's Guy to seize resources... *cough*, no, that's not right, it was to avenge the Spider Queen.

Guy's Zerg Nest was an Eighth-Tier Zerg Nest, with various types of Zerg defensive towers or other defensive buildings distributed around it. In this case, cultivating a large number of Demon Beasts to attack seemed like a better choice; Demon Flame Dragons were too big of a target.

But when it came to a hard assault, 84,800 Demon Beasts that only had melee attacks were not as good as flying units, especially Demon Flame Dragons that could breathe dragon fire.

A concept appeared in Su Xiao's mind: could he upgrade the Demon Flame Dragons to elite units?

Don't forget, the title Su Xiao used for war wasn't just "War Lord"; he also had "Sun Lord," which acted on elite units. This title had been embedded in the Sun Ring, absorbing the power of faith. For so long, the faith power "Sun" continuously outputted from the Sell Star and the Tree-Born World had all been absorbed by this title.

It was impossible for this title to be upgraded to eight stars, but Su Xiao estimated that it had likely been upgraded to seven stars.

Su Xiao's idea was whether he could use "Sun Lord" to buff the Demon Flame Dragons, making them Sun Flame Dragons. If he could have 1,060 Sun Flame Dragons, hammering Guy's Zerg Nest would definitely be a piece of cake. Look into Sun Fire Dragon Flame.

Although this idea was a bit devilish, it lingered in Su Xiao's mind. He walked into the Zerg Nest, took out both the Sun Ring and the Sun Lord title, plus the Overlord-tier equipment "Collector" he had obtained not long ago, and began to test if the concept could work.

Just then, Bahar flew into the Zerg Nest and said, "Boss, the Spider Queen has come with her Zerg subordinates."

"Hmm, go invite them in."

"You got it."

Bahar brewed his emotions, found the feeling of entertaining a creditor, and flew out.

A moment later, inside the nest chamber redesigned and constructed by Jila, the biological lights illuminated the place brightly. The Spider Queen drank a sip of black tea; she was quite fond of this beverage.

"Lord Bai Ye, don't forget the repayment in a week. You should know that to receive, one must also pay."

The Spider Queen put away the debt contract. This IOU with the power of a contract was the reason she was so fearless.

The Spider Queen gradually revealed her claws. This was also the reason she was willing to take out 150,000 units of active ore; she wanted to continuously collect interest from Su Xiao until she hollowed out Su Xiao's large mineral vein.

"No problem."

Su Xiao answered very crisply. He had no intention of paying it back, so of course he was crisp.

"I heard your plan to infiltrate the Empire side previously didn't go smoothly?"

Hearing Su Xiao's words, the Spider Queen opposite him stiffened. Mentioning this was like rubbing salt in her wounds.

"I received some secret intelligence here regarding who betrayed you."

"Who?"

The Spider Queen's eyes were full of murderous intent. In reality, she didn't pay much attention to Su Xiao's words in her heart.

"It was Guy of the Pro-Peace Faction."

"Her? Hahaha, Lord Bai Ye, it's not that I look down on Guy, but she doesn't have the guts."

The Spider Queen chuckled, as if she had heard something absurd.

"My intelligence here is quite accurate. Don't worry, I will handle it at my discretion. You lending me money this time is a great favor; I will repay it."

This "favor," Su Xiao would certainly repay. By tomorrow morning at the latest, he would mobilize to go and beat up Guy of the Pro-Peace Faction, under the pretext of avenging the Spider Queen.

The Spider Queen was stunned. She was a bit confused; could it be that even now, the other party hadn't realized she had lent him usury?

"Good, I'll wait for you to repay that favor."

The Spider Queen smiled meaningfully. If there were a chance to redo things in this world, the Spider Queen in the near future would definitely take back these words.

"It's a deal."

Su Xiao revealed a smile, a kind smile. For some reason, the Spider Queen opposite him suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
