Chapter 3503: It Must Be a Special Fate

The dim light flickered occasionally, giving this room, which already appeared dilapidated and empty, a sense of eeriness.

Under such a scene, dozens of translucent figures stood, sat, or simply floated in the room. If anyone with poor courage were to enter this room, they would definitely go into shock on the spot.

Moon Apostle and Hao Mei sat together on a wooden cargo box. From their expressions, it could be seen that they were a bit nervous; after all, the atmosphere was truly too hellish.

"Fellow ghost brothers, we made an appointment to meet someone here, not intentionally stepping into your territory. Please forgive us."

Moon Apostle was always very polite. Previously, she had received an appointment from the Hall of Valor leader, Kain. Initially, she prepared to refuse. She had already guessed the other party's purpose in contacting her; it was nothing more than discovering that the two of them were also looking for opportunities near "Gaoze Lake" before, and preparing to pull them into the group to deal with a common enemy.

Moon Apostle originally didn't intend to keep the appointment because they were not the same kind of people as Kain and the others. Kain and the others were mortal enemies with Su Xiao, while Moon Apostle and Hao Mei were semi-hostile. Their goal was more to ferret out their good friend Morey, rather than seeking revenge on Su Xiao, which was a fundamental difference.

Moon Apostle thought of one point: why couldn't they use the hostility between the Hall of Valor and Bai Ye to save Morey? Moon Apostle's idea was that she wouldn't directly participate in the Hall of Valor's plan, but wait until the two sides started fighting, and they would take the opportunity to sneak into the Sun Holy Nest to rescue Morey.

Regarding Morey's situation, initially, Moon Apostle wasn't worried, but she soon found something wrong. She couldn't contact Morey through the squad channel. Morey's avatar in the squad was lit, representing that Morey wasn't dead, but she didn't know why she had been muted.

Moon Apostle analyzed that Morey had most likely been forced to sign a self-limiting contract, which led to this situation.

According to a mysterious analysis by Moon Apostle and Hao Mei, first, Morey must have been imprisoned in a dark dungeon, and communication with the outside world had been cut off. Storage space and self-limiting contracts meant she couldn't be used, and if things went wrong, she might have already started being subjected to some shameful play.

Under the brain-filling of Moon Apostle and Hao Mei, Morey's situation might already be on the verge of collapse. Every time she thought of this, Hao Mei felt a burst of guilt and sometimes wanted to fight Su Xiao. Considering she really couldn't beat him, she didn't go to give herself away.

Under such circumstances, Moon Apostle and Hao Mei came here to keep the appointment, but as soon as they arrived, dozens of ghosts suddenly appeared in the room.

"Fellow ghost brothers, how about I burn some offerings for you? You go back first."

Moon Apostle spoke softly. She had already sensed that these ghosts were exceptionally difficult to provoke.

A group of fierce ghosts had gloomy faces. The leader among them stepped forward. The black mist surrounding his whole body receded a bit, revealing his head and upper body. It was Kain.

Seeing Kain in this state, Moon Apostle and Hao Mei both guessed roughly. The other party should have been struck to death by that super lightning pillar. Being able to preserve the soul, as well as the appearance of others, was most likely because of some powerful team skill.

Before seeing that world-level lightning pillar with a diameter of over ten kilometers, Moon Apostle was so scared that her legs were a bit weak. Fortunately, she slipped away quickly; otherwise, she might have died there. Relying solely on life-saving items, it was impossible to withstand such terrifying heavenly might.

Hao Mei was the opposite of Moon Apostle. After seeing that world-level lightning pillar with a diameter of over ten kilometers, she was so happy that her brain felt dizzy. The core ability of the profession she inherited was to control world-level lightning. Witnessing the world-level lightning of an Eighth-Tier world reach such a degree, she was naturally happy. This meant her future was bright.

Not only that, after witnessing that scene, Hao Mei's path to continue becoming stronger was clear. First, she had to persist in daily meditation, as well as actual combat training and improvement of Sword Mastery. For the rest, she prepared to spend all her resources on world-level lightning.

In the past, the reason Hao Mei didn't dare to do this was because intelligence on world-level lightning was too rare. Let alone a master, she couldn't even meet people who could use world-level lightning. It belonged to the category of intelligence that couldn't be bought even with money. Now that she had confirmed that world-level lightning had a bright future, she naturally no longer worried about developing in the wrong direction.

A group of ghosts and Moon Apostle and Hao Mei stared at each other. The former had just become ghosts not long ago and were particularly unaccustomed to it; the latter had encountered a group of ghosts, and the scene was too hellish, not knowing what to say.

"The two of you, we have no malice."

Kain spoke. His ghost team members, who all had blue-tinted faces, no longer formed a semi-encirclement, which made Moon Apostle and Hao Mei feel relieved.

"Before talking about business, there is one thing I must confirm first."

On Kain's face, which was full of black cracks, his expression remained gloomy. Actually, it wasn't the old brother's fault; he was a person who had died once, so he was naturally gloomy.

"You say."

Moon Apostle continued to serve as the diplomatic representative, while Hao Mei on the side had already started gulping down wine.

"What kind of grudge do you have with Kukulín Bai Ye?"

Before Kain asked this, he had actually confirmed that Moon Apostle and Hao Mei had grudges with Su Xiao. The reason was that previously, the Hall of Valor had conflicts with Moon Apostle and Hao Mei, and these three had even put a high-priced bounty on them. Although the bounty was quickly withdrawn, under such circumstances, Moon Apostle and Hao Mei still came here to keep the appointment, which already explained a lot.

"Our teammate Morey was caught by him. Morey, she..."

Speaking of this, Moon Apostle started to fill in the picture herself. If Morey were present, she would definitely punch Moon Apostle in the stomach and roar: "Old lady is still fine, don't fill in the picture for me blindly."

Seeing this, Kain asked with some surprise: "Kukulín Bai Ye will be seduced by female beauty? This... is indeed a weakness."

"Uh~"

Moon Apostle wanted to explain, but since those words had already been said, if she explained this matter, it would be no different from playing with Kain and the others just now.

Moon Apostle began to analyze calmly. First, she always felt that the Hall of Valor was not a good thing, especially after they had conflicts with the person named Yeti; the other party simply couldn't afford to lose.

Secondly, Moon Apostle never intended to act with the people of the Hall of Valor. She always felt that these people in the Hall of Valor clearly had a very rigorous attitude, but they were crazily testing between life and death, giving people a feeling that was both serious, but also revealed a sense of comedy in the seriousness, just like a medieval knight in full heavy armor dancing a non-mainstream cement gray dance, confusing people to the point of being completely puzzled.

Therefore, Moon Apostle's plan was to feign joining Kain and the others. When these people went to seek revenge on Su Xiao, she would take advantage of these people drawing Su Xiao away, and she and Hao Mei would use an item they had treasured for a long time to sneak into the Sun Holy Nest, rescue Morey, and then slip away.

"I am sure. Actually, I was also previously by Kukulín Bai Ye..."

Moon Apostle stopped halfway through her words, lowered her head, and clenched her small fists. Her acting was off the charts. The reason she had this acting was because she remembered when she was in the Painted World, she was caught, released, caught again, and released again by Su Xiao in one night. It was uncomfortable and she wanted to cry.

Seeing this, Kain had thoughts in his eyes. He looked at the new deputy leader, Silver Pheasant, on the side. Silver Pheasant, who had already become a female ghost, was stunned. She looked at Kain in surprise and pointed at herself at the same time.

"Pfft~"

The weak-spirited boy Xiao Di behind couldn't hold back and almost laughed out loud. He found it hard to imagine what it would be like for Silver Pheasant to seduce someone. He inexplicably wanted to laugh.

"Let's not talk about this for now. The two of you, since we are going to cooperate, we must all show sincerity. Although my members have had some accidents, in terms of combat power, they are only stronger than before, and the two of you..."

Kain didn't continue. The implication was, with what advantages would Moon Apostle and Hao Mei cooperate?

"We are very rich."

Moon Apostle's tone was steady, and a smile that was close to the people appeared on her face.

"This..."

Kain and the others looked at each other, wanting to say something, but having a feeling of being unable to refute. They were both affirmative and not very willing to affirm the power of money; after all, they had just been hammered by the power of wealth not long ago.

Both sides began to negotiate the details. On Kain's side, he was still the leader. Although the "Gaoze Lake Plan" made the Hall of Valor almost capsize, his accumulated prestige remained.

The new deputy leader, Silver Pheasant, had the same amount of speaking power. As a spiritual assassination type, she would be the main force in dealing with Su Xiao later. After she became a ghost, her strength didn't decrease but increased, and it was a big increase.

Among the remaining forty-plus ghosts, they were divided into two factions. One faction was like the team's backbone, the Black Wizard, a revenge faction. The other faction was a conservative faction, with very few people, like Xiao Di, who was half a transparent person in the team.

At this moment, the team's backbone, the Black Wizard's expression was gloomy to the extreme. This old brother was completely caught in the crossfire. Previously, he had always opposed Kain's plan. His point of view was that Kukulín Bai Ye could kill the Gray Gentleman, which showed that the other party was definitely not weak in planning; otherwise, he would have been arranged by the Gray Gentleman long ago.

The Black Wizard old brother was also unlucky. He was fishing for fame points on the Company's side, and then by sacrificing his own fame points, he improved Kain's fame points, wanting the Hall of Valor to show its face in this world, thereby recruiting more Eighth-Tier powerhouses.

As a result, this old brother was busy working hard on that side. During a nap, he suddenly felt severe pain all over his body, almost causing him to faint. When his consciousness recovered, he found that he had become a ghost. If Kain was a super scapegoat, then the Black Wizard old brother was the ultimate collateral damage hero.

At this moment, the only thing the Black Wizard old brother wanted to do was to complete the "revenge." Only in this way would the core team skill of the SSS-level adventure team, the Hall of Valor, be triggered again, allowing them to "live" again. Although there were still a lot of hidden dangers after living, that was also a second life. No one didn't crave it.

After some planning, Moon Apostle and Hao Mei found a reason to leave. Kain didn't stop them. The trust between the two sides wasn't strong, and acting separately was the best choice.

In the underground market of District 15 of the Platinum Capital, Moon Apostle and Hao Mei walked out of a small door. After confirming that no one was following, Moon Apostle asked in a low voice: "Do you think they can succeed?"

"Whether they succeed or not has nothing to do with us. Rescuing Morey is the most important thing."

"Right."

Moon Apostle expressed deep agreement with this. The two walked toward the outside of the underground market together. In a dark corner, a figure wearing tattered, loose robes sat there. He looked at the backs of Moon Apostle and Hao Mei with his dark green eyes. This gaze had both a cold majesty and pure indifference.

Mother Nest base camp.

The sky was pitch black, losing its dense stars. Replacing them was the dark green ring in the sky. This afternoon, this thing appeared. At first, it was just a black dot, but now, this thing was similar in size to the moon. This was a sign of the Nether's gradual invasion.

On the second floor of the wooden building, Su Xiao observed the Dark Hole in the sky for a moment. The Dark Hole on Pandora Star was clearly not completely destroyed. Fortunately, there wasn't much left, and it couldn't significantly accelerate the invasion speed of the Nether forces.

Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the fur spread on the floor. After completing his daily meditation, he took out a treasure chest from his storage space. This was the 【Eighth-Tier War Treasure Chest】 obtained after destroying the Guyi Insect Nest. He hadn't opened it before because he felt his luck was bad. After all, the output of this thing was completely random, from White to Immortal grade.

To be safe, Su Xiao took out 【Holy Snake Protection】. Just after taking out this pendant, the Holy Snake inside the hollow gemstone saw Su Xiao, and its little eyes gradually became terrified. This world was too dangerous, and the bad luck on Su Xiao was naturally more.

This led to 【Holy Snake Protection】 being taken out, and the Holy Snake inside the hollow gemstone was forced to open its mouth. If others wore 【Holy Snake Protection】, it was the Holy Snake actively devouring bad luck. Then, after Su Xiao wore it, it was bad luck swarming into the Holy Snake's mouth, causing it to be unable to even close its mouth.

Therefore, every time before being taken back into the storage space by Su Xiao, the Holy Snake had a look of having survived a disaster.

Su Xiao took out 【Fate Master】. After the strong luck state was added to his body, he opened the war treasure chest.

【You have started the war treasure chest.】

【You have obtained Summoning Scroll: Running Goblin.】

【Summoning Scroll: Running Goblin】

Origin: Refuge Forest

Quality: White

Type: War-type item.

Effect: Summon 2 goblins good at running.

Score: 5 points.

Introduction: Low practicality, can only barely be classified as a transcendent item.

Selling price: 237 Paradise Coins.

Seeing this scroll, Su Xiao frowned. Although he admitted that his luck had always been bad, he shouldn't be this unlucky.

White quality, Green quality, Blue quality, Purple quality, Dark Purple quality, Light Gold quality, Gold quality, Legendary grade, Epic grade, Saint Spirit grade, Immortal grade—with such a large ladder span, under the condition of the European Emperor state and wearing the Holy Snake Protection, Su Xiao estimated that no matter what, it should be a Purple quality consolation prize. But now, it directly opened a "Thank you for your patronage," which was clearly not very normal.

Su Xiao first thought of whether someone was plotting against him. He had encountered this kind of thing before. The last time his luck exploded, it was because the Gray Gentleman's accomplice plotted against him.

Su Xiao decided to wait and see. It was now two o'clock in the middle of the night. For the sake of caution, he didn't intend to sleep tonight. With his physique, not sleeping for one night wouldn't cause the slightest discomfort.

However, after meditating for more than an hour, Su Xiao didn't wait for the enemy's follow-up plot. That is to say, this time it was a pure explosion of bad luck that made him so unlucky. From a certain point of view, this was even harder to accept than being plotted against.

Four o'clock in the middle of the night, good news washed away the depression of the war treasure chest opening to nothing. It was about the successful development of the defensive tower.

After receiving this news, Su Xiao went out of the wooden building and came to the edge of the bacterial carpet in front of the Mother Nest. This place was about 1,500 meters away from the Mother Nest. Hundreds of worker scorpions were busy here, building their first defensive tower. This defensive tower was named "Brutal Turret."

This turret was named after Kara, after all, it integrated one of Kara's signature skills.

With the construction of the worker scorpions, the biological tissues constituting the "Brutal Turret" grew rapidly. In about an hour, the first "Brutal Turret" was successfully built. It seemed that the construction time was long, but it only took a hundred or so worker scorpions to build it.

As long as there was enough biological energy, it was completely possible to build dozens or even hundreds of "Brutal Turrets" at the same time.

The Mother Nest had originally stored 4.4 million points of biological energy. In terms of the previous situation, this was a huge sum of money. But now, Su Xiao felt that this biological energy was simply not enough. The construction cost of each "Brutal Turret" was as high as 200,000 points of biological energy. That is to say, the existing biological energy could only build 22 "Brutal Turrets."

The height of such a Zerg building with this level of biological energy consumption could be imagined. The entire "Brutal Turret" was 105.9 meters high and 30 meters in diameter. Compared to the Mother Nest, it wasn't big, but if taken out separately, this was an astonishing war building.

On the entire "Brutal Turret," there were chitinous muzzles distributed. Each muzzle was 12 centimeters thick, representing that the caliber of the living missiles was larger than the living missiles launched by Kara.

The firing rate of the "Brutal Turret" was 257–420 rounds per minute. The former was the continuous firing rate, and the latter, 420 rounds per minute, was entering the full-fire mode. After entering this mode, the "Brutal Turret" could only erupt for 5 minutes, and then it would fall into a forced sleep state, needing to recover for one or two hours before it could work normally.

Maintaining 257 rounds per minute, the "Brutal Turret" could maintain long-term shooting. Of course, constituting living missiles also required biological energy.

Because their own Mother Nest wasn't good at manufacturing acidic explosive flames, the living missiles launched by the "Brutal Turret" were replaced inside with burning liquid flames converted from Sun energy. After the explosion, although the flames weren't Sun flames, the temperature was also extremely high, and the adhesion and continuous burning were better.

Simply put, the explosion power of Sun flames and the burning damage caused in a short time were far higher than the liquid flames inside the living missiles.

The reason for this choice was that the "Brutal Turret" was used to deal with miscellaneous soldiers, and there was no need for the burning power of Sun flames. Excessive pursuit of power would cause the killing power to overflow. The enemy died, and the subsequent burning wouldn't have much significance.

On the other hand, liquid flames, although the burning power wasn't as good as Sun flames, had stronger adhesion and continuous burning, and could blast out a continuous burning flame range, incinerating more enemies.

Of course, the "Brutal Turret" could also deal with strong enemies. After its living missiles exploded, they would continuously reduce the enemy's defense. Facing large-sized enemies charging the tower, after the opponent took a dozen or so hits, the external defense would basically be scrapped, and the last hit would be fatal.

Su Xiao tried to give instructions to this "Brutal Turret" through the Mother Nest, letting it fire at full power, target, 500 meters ahead.

A rapid roaring sound came. Living missiles flew out from the muzzles of the "Brutal Turret." Most of these living missiles turned in mid-air and then converged toward the target point. Some simply flew over in an arc.

More rapid explosions came. Firelight rose hundreds of meters away, a heat wave blew over, and the distance turned into a sea of fire.

Su Xiao was very satisfied with the power of the "Brutal Turret." Because the "Brutal Turret" itself had a footprint, he decided to expand the bacterial carpet area to a diameter of 5 kilometers.

In this way, the circumference of their circular bacterial carpet defense line was 15,708 meters. If 200 "Brutal Turrets" were built, each would be 48.54 meters apart, which could completely surround their defensive territory. Finally, city walls would be constructed with biological tissues between the "Brutal Turrets."

In this way, the Mother Nest would be further away from the outer city walls, and the probability of enemies threatening the Mother Nest would be lower.

Regarding the range of the "Brutal Turret," theoretically speaking, this thing had no problem tracking targets 3 kilometers away, but one point had to be considered: because the living missiles had to maintain a super-fast flight speed and power, their maximum range was destined not to be particularly far. A tracking range of 3 kilometers was already very excellent.

When their defense line was formed, the firepower of their outer defense line could reach 51,400 living missiles per minute. If this kind of firepower still couldn't stop the initial attack of the Nether forces, then there really was no other way.

The prototype of the defense responsible for resisting human-sea tactics was available. Now what was missing was ultra-long-distance, high-power precision weapons, that is, plasma weapons.

When attacking the Guyi Insect Nest, how did Su Xiao break the defensive towers there? The answer was to let the Sun Flame Dragons dive at full speed, and then blast.

Facing this aspect, he naturally had to guard against it. The plasma towers that were about to be developed must be built near the Mother Nest.

Besides this, Su Xiao also had an idea: could he manufacture a type of Apollo landmine with biological characteristics? Now their Zerg nest could convert Sun energy, and the manufacturing cost in this aspect was very low. Not taking out landmine creatures or self-destructing creatures would be a big loss.

Sun Flame Dragons could indeed self-destruct. The problem was that a Sun Flame Dragon that cost 3,600 points of biological energy to self-destruct was truly too wasteful. Since it was a self-destructing creature, there was no need to be as comprehensive as a Sun Flame Dragon. Reducing its capabilities in many aspects and ensuring speed and self-destruct power was enough.

Besides these points, the Zerg unit that changed the most was the Elite Demon Beast. These Demon Beasts, following the evolution of the Mother Nest, improved by a large margin, leaping to become the top melee unit among Eighth-Tier Zerg. However, at the same time, the biological energy required to cultivate them also increased significantly, reaching 450 points per unit.

At the current stage, their 100,000 Demon Beasts, due to the lack of biological energy, hadn't completed the improvement of combat power. This required a full 40 million points of biological energy, which was a huge sum of money.

For the improvement of these Demon Beasts, it was necessary. They would become the final defensive force of the Mother Nest, the personal guard unit of Zerg Master Jila. Before killing them all, don't even think about stepping half a step into the Mother Nest.

Compared to the personal guard unit, the establishment of the "Brutal Turret" was more prioritized. Of course, it was best to keep the enemy outside.

In a defensive battle, the Demon Beasts cultivated with the same amount of biological energy had lower defensive capabilities than the "Brutal Turret." Of course, if they took the initiative to attack, the "Brutal Turret" couldn't compare to the Demon Beasts with mobility.

Just as Su Xiao was preparing to contact the Empire and the Company to demand the reward for dealing with Kara, Baja flew over and said: "Boss, a female contractor named Elvie is here to find you."

"Elvie?"

Su Xiao looked confused. He had never heard of this person.

"She said she wanted to defect to our Sun Holy Nest."

Hearing Baja's words, Su Xiao was even more surprised. For so long, he had been the Overlord of the Chaos Legion, Captain of the Doom, Commander of the Containment Legion, Sun Overlord, etc., in native worlds, and he controlled quite a few forces. But for so long, no contractor had really come to defect to the forces he controlled. At most, it was someone like Morey who was caught.

Now such a rare thing had happened, and someone actually came to defect? This was very confusing.

Su Xiao basically determined that there was fraud in this. Facing this situation, he wouldn't use mysterious confidence to test it himself, but gave a mental instruction to Jila, letting Jila control a thousand or so Demon Beasts to hunt down the suspicious female contractor.

Knowing that the person coming was very suspicious, yet still arrogantly going to contact them, that was typical brain-dead behavior. At any time, don't underestimate others because of your own strength.

At the same time, at the edge of the base camp's bacterial carpet, half a kilometer away, a woman wearing a dinner gown stood here. She was holding a small makeup mirror, carefully applying lipstick. This time, she had received a large sum of money before taking this commission.

"The famous Head-Severing Night can actually be seduced. Wonderful."

Elvie smiled slightly charmingly. In turn, she heard the sound of running coming from ahead. At first, she thought it was a welcome party, but the more Elvie looked, the more wrong it felt. Those Zerg were running wildly, and... there were black flame dragons flying over.

When a dozen or so living missiles made a whistling sound and attacked, the corners of Elvie's eyes trembled slightly. She was now certain that this was definitely not a welcome ceremony. She had been pitted by that hellish adventure team!

With a pop, Elvie turned into bubbles and exploded. Anyone who dared to go to this place alone was certainly not simple.

Baja in the sky saw this and turned to fly toward the wooden building to go back to sleep.

Baja flew into the room through the window. Just as it landed, it felt its nostrils itching.

"Ah~ ah~ ah~, achoo! Achoo!"

Baja sneezed several times before feeling refreshed. Just at this moment, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who was sleeping soundly, also sneezed several times.

When Amu also suddenly sneezed, Su Xiao had already taken out a gas mask and put it on his face. At the same time, he took out a detection device. After confirming that the air was fine, he came to the wall that Amu had just sneezed at.

Taking out a temperature sensing device to test, the saliva and small amount of nasal mucus on the wall were normal, not a "pre-static reaction."

After confirming this, Su Xiao took out a purple flashlight and shone it on the wall. On the wall stained with saliva and a small amount of nasal mucus, dense granular fluorescence appeared, and this fluorescence was gradually evaporating. At most half a minute, it would completely recover.

Time misperception reaction!

Su Xiao's middle finger brushed across his thumb, and fresh blood immediately dripped down from the tip of his thumb.

Drip, drip.

The blood drops were distributed normally, not a forward time reaction.

The reason Su Xiao understood these was because he had a good teammate who was of the time type. That guy's time-type ability was not to be mentioned how difficult to deal with. After Su Xiao paid enough chips, he learned some secrets of the time type from that guy.

Just now, Baja, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Amu all sneezed one after another, which was one of the most common manifestations of "time misperception reaction." The principle was just like having a fever after a cold. When experiencing "time misperception reaction," the body's most sensitive nasal cavity, respiratory tract, brain, etc., would be stimulated slightly, thus causing this phenomenon to appear.

There were two types of "time misperception reaction," "forward" and "backward." If it was "forward," very few people could do it, and the price paid by the user themselves was extremely tragic. Therefore, this was basically not encountered. In the words of White Bull, the Leader, and others, encountering this was a disaster of fate, and one deserved to be unlucky.

And the backward "time misperception reaction" corresponded to the past. The operability in this aspect was relatively large, and the price was much smaller than jumping forward in time.

Don't think that the time type was an unsolvable ability. The more this type of ability, the more ability rules had to be followed; otherwise, the first to die would definitely be the ability user themselves.

Su Xiao pressed one hand on the hilt of his sword. Suddenly, a dragging force came. This dragging was almost impossible to resist. The good news was that the "time misperception reaction" didn't appear again.

With Su Xiao's combat experience + accumulation of knowledge, he determined one thing: someone chose a past time node and dragged his current self to a place he had been before. This was not reversing time, nor was it letting him return to the past, but simply acting on him personally, changing his position.

Assuming Su Xiao had been to point A before, and now he was at point B, then what the enemy was doing was setting up a magnetic field at point A, sucking Su Xiao from point B to point A. This was not a change at the time level. The reason why "time misperception reaction" appeared was because the other party used things that had happened before as nodes.

The dragging feeling flashed away. The night wind blew, and Su Xiao was already on the cracked lakebed beside "Gaoze Lake." He looked at the time: 4:21. Just now it was 4:20. The timeline was very normal. Thinking about it, the person who dragged him here used some kind of precious item.

Su Xiao looked at his palm. A translucent mark appeared on it, and a strong sense of summoning appeared. He temporarily ignored this point and pressed one hand toward the ground.

Black patterns detached from Su Xiao's cuffs and spread to the ground. This was a space array he had prepared long ago, just to guard against this kind of surprise attack.

"Want to run? Too late."

A boy a hundred meters away spoke. Under his feet was also an array, a space-blocking array.

However, this boy hadn't realized the severity of the matter yet. What he was facing was the space array of the Demon Race.

Boom!!

A loud noise spread, and Su Xiao disappeared from where he was. And that boy, the array under his feet exploded, causing his whole person to flip and fly up, and one of his legs was blown off.

Base camp, behind the wooden building, Su Xiao appeared suddenly. He looked at the dim array under his feet and recorded this account on Kain and the others, waiting for an opportunity to get it back.

This surprise attack, no need to think, was definitely done by the Hall of Valor. For anyone, having lost so miserably before, they wouldn't give up easily.

Su Xiao jumped from the window to the second floor of the wooden building, with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and Baja following closely behind.

Su Xiao unfolded his palm. The mark in his hand became more and more brilliant, reaching a point where it couldn't be suppressed. This sense of summoning from the soul was the way Kain chose to decide the winner.

Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground, and soul power pierced into the mark in his palm. The next instant, the scene before his eyes changed greatly.

The surroundings were dilapidated. This was a circular venue, about a hundred meters in diameter, and further out were broken walls and ruins.

Seeing the style of the patterns on the broken walls and ruins, Su Xiao felt familiar, but this place was strange.

Su Xiao was not a physical body now, but a soul body. This was not the first time he had experienced this situation.

Figures appeared in the surroundings. Among the broken walls and ruins in the surroundings, countless figures appeared. They were either translucent in body or had some defects. No one was like Su Xiao, who was clearly a soul body but looked no different from a physical body. This was also the reason he chose to fight. Moreover, the other party paid a great price, and he couldn't avoid it.

The number of soul-eating ghosts in the surroundings was huge, but Su Xiao didn't feel any sense of threat.

"Welcome."

Kain, who was standing opposite, spoke. Beside him were Silver Pheasant, Black Wizard, Xiao Di, and others.

Su Xiao's hand pressed on the hilt of his sword. Seeing this, Kain said: "Bai Ye, I'm not stupid enough to fight a Sword Mastery master with a ghost body. Your real opponents are them. To summon them, I paid a great price."

After Kain finished speaking, several figures walked out of the stone gate cave covered in white mist behind him.

Seeing these figures, Su Xiao finally knew why this place looked familiar. This place was actually an abandoned soul arena. For existences that couldn't leave the soul arena, this place belonged to a gray area.

Walking out of the mist gate were the Soul Guardian, Thorn Girl, Ghost Hunter, Soul Mage, Black Steel Knight, and the final Soul Lord, whom Su Xiao had hammered one by one in the Tree-Born World.

After these six appeared, as powerful soul existences who were welcomed, their six appearance postures were different, especially the Ghost Hunter, who was still so arrogant.

With his hands crossed over his chest, the tall Soul Lord looked at Su Xiao. His gaze was first confused, then stunned, and finally turned into fear. Beside him, the Ghost Hunter almost had his legs go soft and knelt down directly.

"What a coincidence."

The six Soul Lords all showed friendly smiles. They turned around almost without distinction and looked at Kain.

After turning around, the smiles on the faces of the six Soul Lords all disappeared. Everyone was a "face-changing master." They all glared at Kain, wishing they could evaporate Kain with their gazes. ===== CHAPTER 3504 =====
