Chapter 3687: Hunter

Under Su Xiao's 'sincere' invitation, the priest finally agreed to join the team. From the other party's words, it was not difficult to see that the other party was quite 'looking forward' to this team formation. Because of this, both sides talked happily afterwards, and Su Xiao naturally canceled the 1 million legend degrees he was about to transfer.

To deal with this old fox, the priest, one must not circle with the other party, otherwise he would definitely not be able to beat this guy. If it was about the ability to hide in the dark and scheme against others, so far, no one could beat the priest.

Su Xiao estimated that the endurance limit of a group of Beast Clan lords was about two to three days before they would make a scene about the bacteria blanket to the Beast King. So he and the priest agreed to set off for the tribal faction territory in three days. The priest had no objection to this. Before ending the conversation, Su Xiao suddenly remembered one thing and sent a message:

Bai Ye: "【Temple Key】, do you know the origin of this thing."

Priest: "Not clear, estimated to be a mission item."

Bai Ye: "Should be a key mission item for a world mission."

Priest: "Is this true?"

Bai Ye: "..."

Priest: "Then it seems to be eight or nine out of ten. Have you triggered a world mission."

Bai Ye: "Temporarily no, don't know if someone has already triggered it, or my Tree of the Void credibility is too low to trigger this world mission. You try?"

Priest: "'Tree of the Void credibility -1901 points.'"

Bai Ye: "..."

Priest: "World missions are basically triggered by someone first, and then the key mission item is locked. I estimate that it has already been triggered. Assuming so, the person performing the world mission will be very anxious now and will try every means to buy the key from you. By the way, I just saw you released the sale information for this thing. Did you catch anything?"

Bai Ye: "No."

Priest: "Two possibilities: 1. The other party didn't see it, 2. The person who triggered the world mission is very wary of you. Ten out of nine, they have fought with you and were restrained by you, so they didn't act rashly. At this time, they are contacting others, commissioning others to buy this key from you. The difficulty of world missions is very high. Ordinary ninth-tier contractors will choose to give up after receiving it. You look for it in the top 30 of the leaderboard to see if there is anyone you have fought with before and were restrained by your ability."

Bai Ye: "Kain, Aige."

Priest: "80% probability, the world mission was received by one of them. 50% probability, they are executing the world mission together. If it is the latter, they might also recruit 1 to 2 teammates. A temporary team of 3 to 4 people not only ensures that the number of people is not large, which is convenient for action, but also reduces the probability of stabbing in the back. Kain is a Soul Ghost ability, Aige is a magic, thunder, soul three-system. Their frontal combat power is enough to deal with world missions, and even have combat power overflow.

If it were me, I would choose a treatment-type, divination-type, causality-type, perception-type teammate. Combat is definitely treatment-type priority, but executing missions is definitely divination-type priority. If I can't find one, I will consider treatment-type, then causality-type. If I really can't choose, I will choose perception-type. Among the contractors who came this time, Witch Lilia and the diviner of the Holy Light Paradise are both good teammate choices. I estimate they will choose Witch Lilia, she is a divination-type + causality-type ability."

Seeing the priest's speculation, Su Xiao felt it was relatively reliable. As for how to deal with this matter, of course, it was to clarify directly. There was no need to waste time on this kind of thing and circle with the person who received the world mission.

Su Xiao opened the world communication platform and posted directly in it:

Bai Ye (Reincarnation Paradise): "Kain, Aige, Lilia."

Kain (Death Paradise): "Brother Bai Ye, what is this?"

Bai Ye (Reincarnation Paradise): "Thrown into the furnace."

Kain (Death Paradise): "Brother Bai Ye, what are you talking about?"

Kain (Death Paradise): "Damn! You really threw it, you two, don't pretend to be dead, didn't you receive a warning prompt? I'm already being screen-brushed here, he really threw the key into the furnace."

Thunder Magic God Aige (Apocalypse Paradise): "Brother Bai Ye, calm down, take it out first, let's talk slowly."

Bai Ye (Reincarnation Paradise): "Looks like the key is about to melt."

Lilia (Holy Light Paradise): "I still can't figure out until now, how did you know that the three of us received that mission and how did you know that it was a key mission item."

Bai Ye (Reincarnation Paradise): "Priest, come out."

Priest (Sanctuary Paradise): "This matter has nothing to do with me, Bai Ye is slandering me."

Bai Ye (Reincarnation Paradise): "After the matter is done, you get 30% of the proceeds."

Priest (Sanctuary Paradise): "If you three want to buy this key, come to Eternal Ring City to find me."

Lilia (Holy Light Paradise): "A few seconds ago, you said this matter had nothing to do with you."

Priest (Sanctuary Paradise): "Is there such a thing?"

【Prompt: Priest has withdrawn a message.】

Su Xiao closed the world communication platform. The reason why he divided 30% of the proceeds of this matter to the priest was not only because he had other things to deal with now, but also because doing so would not be a loss.

Going to the tribal faction with the priest this time was not only to let the priest help share the tribe's firepower but also to borrow the priest's various weird abilities.

Without any income, the priest would not contribute later. Conversely, before going to the tribal faction, getting benefits from the priest would naturally make the other party more willing to contribute.

Solving this matter, Su Xiao took out the feather left by Witch Doctor Baze. As the green flesh and blood formed a head, the eyes on the head opened. When those dark green pupils focused, Witch Doctor Baze asked: "What's the matter?"

"Bring your eldest grandson to Twilight Winter City."

"He arrived this morning."

"You two come to the manor now. If conditions permit, it is best to hire a heart physician. The treatment process is relatively... cumbersome and may cause a certain degree of psychological trauma to your eldest grandson."

"Don't worry, my eldest grandson is a warrior of the tribe, he is not afraid of pain."

Hearing this, Su Xiao didn't speak again, just picked up the feather standing on the table, and the twisted flesh head in mid-air dissipated.

In the afternoon, the two walked into the manor from the back door and followed the forest path to the backyard of the castle.

Among the two, one was Witch Doctor Baze. This old warlock was still in his original attire, and behind him was a strong man over three meters tall, broad-shouldered and thick-waisted. This person looked to be in his early 30s, with messy hair scattered. Even in the wind and snow of winter, he was still shirtless, covered with various scars, and a sense of strength came to his face. It was no wonder that Witch Doctor Baze was so satisfied with his eldest grandson.

Under the guidance of the servants, the grandfather and grandson went up to the fourth floor of the castle and stopped in front of a treatment room. Baze's eldest grandson strode into it and sat on the surgical chair by himself, saying in a thick voice: "Start, but don't use anesthetic herbs on me."

"..."

Su Xiao's hand holding the injection gun paused. After putting down the injection gun, he quietly triggered the mechanism on the operating table. Alchemical poison with anesthetic effect spread in the corridor outside the door. When Witch Doctor Baze found something wrong, he could only support the wall with one hand and then sat paralyzed by the wall. Anesthetizing him was to prevent him from rushing into the treatment room because he felt sorry for his eldest grandson during the operation.

In the treatment room, Su Xiao picked up an instrument that looked like an extractor and adsorbed it on the center of Baze's eldest grandson's eyebrows. This made Baze's eldest grandson immediately vigilant.

"Just soul paralysis, don't worry, this is just a measure to prevent you from moving around or escaping during the treatment process."

While Su Xiao was speaking, he had already put on an alchemy mask connected to a catheter. When he pulled open the curtain behind him and revealed various treatment instruments, Baze's eldest grandson's gaze became extremely solemn. This tough guy's heart gradually became uneasy.

Ten hours later, Su Xiao threw the extractor full of black liquid into the metal tray. After observing for a moment, confirming that Baze's eldest grandson's organs were all in place and none were missing, he began to perform micron-level cell suturing with spirit shadow lines.

Suturing the front, then the back, and then the side. After completing all this, Su Xiao was quite satisfied with this suturing. He could only see a faint mark like a hair. With treatment medicine, the damage to the body would recover in a few hours.

Su Xiao used surgical forceps to clamp the cloth covering Baze's eldest grandson's face. This cloth was completely soaked with tears and saliva. Su Xiao threw it into the metal tray together with the surgical forceps.

Just after moving the cloth covering his face, Baze's eldest grandson's eyes opened. Those trembling pupils stared at Su Xiao. Because the soul paralysis was gradually lifted, he tried to move his body, staying as far away from Su Xiao as possible.

"The treatment was very successful, you are already fine, and your soul is two to three times stronger than before."

As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, Baze's eldest grandson got off the surgical chair tremblingly and walked out step by step. Seeing this, Su Xiao was even more satisfied with his spirit shadow line suturing level. Looking at Baze's eldest grandson, he knew that the other party could walk on the ground just after completing the treatment.

An hour later, in the inner hall on the second floor, Witch Doctor Baze, whose anesthetic poison had been lifted, looked at his eldest grandson whose spirit had recovered. The satisfaction and joy in his eyes were hard to hide. That vigorous life fluctuation could be vaguely felt even from more than ten meters away. However, what made Witch Doctor Baze confused was that his eldest grandson's gaze would sometimes be absent-minded, which was not the case before.

"This is..."

Witch Doctor Baze looked at Su Xiao.

"Sequelae of soul medicine, find a heart physician to adjust it later, it should be fine."

"That's good."

A smile returned to Witch Doctor Baze's old face. Originally, Su Xiao wanted to keep the grandfather and grandson for dinner, and a table of rich food was prepared in the banquet hall. As a result, Baze's eldest grandson insisted on leaving as soon as possible, saying that there were very important urgent matters in the tribe.

This surprised Witch Doctor Baze. Their Holy Snake Tribe had urgent matters, and as the High Priest of the tribe, he didn't know. However, under his eldest grandson's strong insistence, the grandfather and grandson finally left overnight.

In the banquet hall, the soothing music made people feel comfortable. Su Xiao, Bubu Wang, Baha, and Gu'erwei were eating dinner. Outside the window, heavy snow was flying, and the banquet hall was warm and comfortable. In such a comfortable atmosphere, Gu'erwei was restless. While eating dinner, the dull thumping sound coming from a few meters away made her hands tremble slightly.

Amu punched a large leather bag hanging up, causing blood to seep out continuously. Finally, it untied the binding rope under the large leather bag, and three figures leaked out from it.

"We, were wrong, we will never take Gu'erwei out of the Twilight Winter City range again, never."

Head Wolf York spoke with blood flowing from his mouth and nose.

"Amu, chop the three of them and bury them in the backyard."

After speaking, Su Xiao put down the tableware and picked up white water to drink.

At first, Gu'erwei thought this was to scare the four of them, but when Amu chopped an axe into York's chest and pulled out the Dragon Heart Axe without hesitation, preparing to chop off York's head with the second axe, Gu'erwei knew this was not to scare them.

"I, I was wrong, I will never go to other fiefs without authorization again."

"You can naturally go. This fief is managed by you and me together. I have no power to restrict your freedom."

"No, you are here because you are helping me manage this fief. If I am caught by other lords, you will be very passive. I know, I already know why I can't go to other fiefs."

"..."

The kind smile on Su Xiao's face gradually disappeared, and he raised his hand to signal Amu to drag the three people out.

"Knowing is good. It was never me protecting you. I am the lord, and you are too. If I die, you will eventually become a puppet. If you die, I will have no legitimate reason to continue managing this fief."

Hearing this, Gu'erwei nodded thoughtfully. Seeing this, Su Xiao felt much relieved. Originally, his plan was to be kind to this little lord and let the other party listen to him obediently. Everything else didn't matter, as long as she didn't leave the range of the Winter Fief, everything else was easy to say. But the problem was that this little guy had her own ideas. This afternoon, she actually went to the Magic Horn Fief with the three treasure hunters.

But judging from the current situation, Gu'erwei had her own ideas, which was a good thing. Instead of controlling the other party, it was better to let the other party become an accomplice. In this way, if other lords intended to win over Gu'erwei to deal with Su Xiao, the greatest possibility was that Gu'erwei seemed to be won over, but actually secretly found Su Xiao and told him who wanted to win her over.

And today's matter made Su Xiao confirm one point, that is, the charm attribute is sometimes quite useful. If the charm attribute was high enough, Gu'erwei would have trusted Su Xiao very much, instead of considering whether to slip away like this afternoon, because she was always afraid of Su Xiao.

But after dinner today, Gu'erwei's mentality underwent a earth-shaking change. She not only didn't fear Su Xiao anymore but also felt that she was Su Xiao's accomplice. The psychological temperament of the dark eldest lady came up all of a sudden.

Su Xiao rubbed his eyebrows with one hand. This time's matter made him have a thorough understanding of his own -18, no, it was already -19 charm attribute. With his charm attribute, trying to increase others' trust through kind acting was completely impossible, and even children couldn't be deceived, although Gu'erwei was a particularly smart little lord.

Conversely, if it was reaching a conspiracy with others, the trust would soar.

"What are you worrying about."

Gu'erwei, who learned that the three people of Silver Feather had been taken for treatment and had brought herself into the identity of an accomplice, spoke. Her demeanor was quite natural.

After Su Xiao was silent for a few seconds, he asked: "Regarding the care I gave you when you were eating breakfast this morning, what do you feel? Was my acting very bad at that time?"

"I was terrified at the time, I... I just felt that you were going to kill me and bury me in the backyard, so I ran away in the afternoon."

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak. He found that besides having the ability of speech, Gu'erwei's talent in perception was actually more amazing.

Gu'erwei continued to eat, but couldn't hold it for long, and she whispered: "You have to be careful, recently these lords around us have malice. They have all vaguely won me over, among which the White Dragon Lord connected to our fief has the strongest intention to win me over, and has sent confidants to see me."

"Oh? There is such a thing?"

"Yes, I ran to the Magic Horn Fief this afternoon, and the one who picked me up at the station was the White Dragon Lord's confidant. If Fenris hadn't robbed me back, I would have been fooled. These scumbags, no, Beast scumbags."

Gu'erwei smashed the dining table with her small fist in anger. Undoubtedly, she had already completely and wholeheartedly brought herself into the identity of an accomplice.

"Don't pay attention, I will send someone to deal with it later."

"Well, I'm full, I'm going to sleep."

Gu'erwei yawned, left the banquet hall and went to the corridor. She walked in the corridor with windows on one side. Unknowingly, a smile appeared on her face. After such a long time, she finally, finally found an accomplice.

Su Xiao returned to the bedroom, and the communicator rang again. After taking it out, he found it was Great Commander Kain. After picking it up, he chatted with Kain for more than half an hour before prevaricating.

From Kain's words, Su Xiao knew one point: among the more than 140 Beast Clan lords, more than 90% were thirsty for the bacteria blanket, and some simply wanted to get the cultivation method of the bacteria blanket.

The reason for this was not only because of the bacteria blanket itself, but this involved a misunderstanding. A group of Beast Clan lords naturally knew what the combat power of the Winter Legion was before. Although it was an upper-middle level, it was never as exaggerated as it was now. It was not an exaggeration to say that the current Winter Legion was one of the several main forces on the main battlefield. The Winter Legion was too capable of fighting and had a fierce style.

This change in the Winter Legion was achieved by the War Lord, but a group of Beast Clan lords didn't know this. They mistakenly thought that this was the fierce improvement brought by the bacteria blanket, so their thirst for the bacteria blanket was more urgent.

Regarding this, Su Xiao didn't plan to explain. Even if the lords got the bacteria blanket later and found that this thing was not as strong as they imagined, would they not use the bacteria blanket? No, the answer was that they would both use the bacteria blanket and have a thirst for a stronger bacteria blanket.

Currently, the level limit of the bacteria blanket was Lv. 30. Using evolution points to improve the Zerg group level, the level limit of the bacteria blanket would also increase. At that time, the strength of the bacteria blanket could be improved, and stronger bacteria blankets could be taken out step by step.

Su Xiao checked yesterday's fief settlement, 3000 basic reputation points, plus 2100 points for the seven legions to fight, and 4290 reputation points rewarded for the legion's merits, a total of 9390 reputation points.

But this was not the final harvest. Because of the Dark God Sect in the fief, the reputation points gained last night were -1800 points, causing Su Xiao to only obtain 7590 reputation points. The Dark God Sect side was more difficult to deal with than expected.

Opening the faction store, Su Xiao found that he had a total of 8835 reputation points. The problem was that 【Soul Essence】 was exchanged until only one was left.

【You have consumed 1300 reputation points.】

【You have obtained Soul Essence x1.】

For the remaining 7000+ reputation, Su Xiao didn't plan to use it for the time being. Although it could be exchanged for soul crystals, he was more interested in the technique-type suit 【Silver Moonlight Suit (3/3 pieces)】 in the faction store. This thing required 78000 reputation points. It could be determined that quite a few people should be staring at this suit.

There were benefits to the subordinate legions increasing to 7 yesterday, and the number of reputation points obtained every day increased significantly. Su Xiao opened the fief list.

【Winter Fief.】

【Legion quantity: 9 (combat state).】

【Fief evaluation: B grade (Fief evaluation is E~S grade. Different fief evaluations allow the fief lord to obtain a corresponding amount of reputation points every day, from 100 to 15000 points... 】

It was still 7 legions when he looked before going to bed yesterday, but without paying attention, it became 9. He opened the detailed data and found that Ergeyin was commanding 4 legions, Harvey 3, and Viper 2. The legions commanded by Ergeyin and Harvey each increased by one.

When the generals under other lords led legions to fight, they fought less and less, and finally requested the lord to supplement the legions. But these three guys of his own fought more and more, and I don't know if it was intentional or a coincidence, they secretly developed every time after Su Xiao went to sleep.

Dong dong dong~

Urgent knocking came. After opening the door, Spotted Fox Clan Pilu said urgently: "My lord, it's not good. Ergeyin is privately recruiting legions under other lords on the main battlefield. Now more than a dozen lords' executive officers have come to ask us for an explanation. They are all blocking in the hall on the first floor."

"..."

Su Xiao frowned. This scene was extremely familiar. When he got up yesterday, it was a similar situation. It was just that he let City Lord Fenris go to send away those people who came to find him. Thinking of this, he asked:

"Did those people from yesterday come?"

"My lord, not a single one is missing. They all came to find us again. Looking at that expression, they are angrier than yesterday."

"..."

Su Xiao stroked his face with one hand, knowing in his heart that this matter could not be avoided today. It was because Ergeyin was acting recklessly on the main battlefield, and also because he didn't hand over the bacteria blanket, and other lords were staring at it. How could this opportunity be let go?

The problem was that the Beast King didn't speak, and Su Xiao didn't plan to take out the bacteria blanket. The timing was not yet ripe.

"Let Ergeyin come back immediately."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Pilu was shocked. He really didn't expect Su Xiao to call Ergeyin back from the main battlefield.

"It's not letting the legion come back, he just needs to come back himself."

Hearing this, Pilu suddenly realized. There was a teleportation tower in Iron Fortress City on the main battlefield. If it was just Ergeyin coming back, he could arrive at Iron Fortress City quickly by riding the Abyss Dragon's eldest son, and take the teleportation tower to return directly to Twilight Winter City.

Two hours later, in the inner hall on the second floor of the Lord's Manor, Su Xiao sat in the main seat. On both sides sat 16 executive officers under the lords. The so-called executive officer was a position that only absolute confidants could hold. Just like Pilu, he was Su Xiao's executive officer. When Su Xiao was away, in some occasions, he could represent Su Xiao's lord identity to a certain extent.

At this time, more than a dozen executive officers had ugly expressions, but none of them said anything. The reason was that Ergeyin, who had returned from the main battlefield, was kneeling on one knee a few meters away from Su Xiao, waiting for Su Xiao to deal with him.

Besides Ergeyin's return, Harvey and Viper also took time to come back. The legions under their command were temporarily stationed in Iron Fortress City and had their respective confidants to manage, so there would be no problems.

Interestingly, Viper, who was sitting on the side, was a bit gloating and winked at Ergeyin, while Harvey had a serious face.

"I heard that you recruited legions under other lords on the main battlefield at will."

As Su Xiao spoke, everyone who was whispering on both sides of the hall quieted down. Pilu, City Lord Fenris, and others were all present, and some generals in the legion were also there, some of whom were full of worry, worried that Su Xiao would punish their boss Ergeyin.

"Speak."

Su Xiao spoke coldly. Ergeyin, who was kneeling on one knee to him, turned his head somewhat unconvinced and muttered: "I didn't do it, those were all collapsed troops."

"Still dare to quibble, you only went out for two days and caused me such a big disaster. If I continue to let you go, how can I explain to the dozen or so people present? Someone, drag him down and behead him, behead him immediately."

Su Xiao's words not only made Harvey, Viper, Pilu, and others stunned, but even the dozen or so executive officers who came to ask for an explanation were full of surprise. They really just came to ask for an explanation, not wanting Su Xiao to execute Ergeyin.

Others present didn't understand Su Xiao's meaning, but City Lord Fenris heard it clearly. Su Xiao's words were automatically translated to his ears as:

'Still dare to quibble (well done, but don't say too much), you only went out for two days and caused me such a big disaster (only went out for two days, so promising, well done), if I continue to let you go, how can I explain to the dozen or so people present (don't care about these few, I'll cover for you), someone, drag him down and behead him (Fenris, quickly plead for Ergeyin), behead him immediately (plead immediately).'

City Lord Fenris understood, and before others reacted, he brewed emotions for 2 seconds in his heart, then knelt beside Ergeyin with a plop, and said with tears and snot: "My lord, no, Ergeyin he..."

City Lord Fenris began to show his acting skills. More than a dozen executive officers looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Let Su Xiao really execute Ergeyin? Stop joking, this guy was one of the main forces on the main battlefield. But just letting it go like this, they were hard to explain. But the problem was that the steps had been built, and if they continued to make trouble, everyone would not be able to get off the stage in the end.

The final punishment was that Ergeyin was punished with 300 sticks, and Harvey and Viper accompanied him throughout the whole process. Because of the deep "brotherhood", Viper almost laughed out loud during the period, and regardless of others' opposition, Viper desperately pleaded for Ergeyin, causing Ergeyin, who should have been punished with 300 sticks, to be punished with more than 800 sticks.

At noon, Su Xiao went up to the fourth floor and came to an empty room. After letting Baha be vigilant, he temporarily changed into the "God Hunter" title and activated a capability of this nine-star title that had never been activated.

After a distortion on the wall in front, a space door opened. This was opening the door to the Hunter Guild by relying on the "Hunter Badge".

"God Hunter Introduction: After wearing this title, you will be defaulted to holding the 'Hunter Badge', and can accept commissions or issue commissions in the 'Hunter Guild'."

After completing all this, Su Xiao switched titles, switching to the "Hunter" title. The next second, his aura changed, and a metal mask appeared on his face. At this time, even people who were very familiar with Su Xiao couldn't recognize him.

Step into the space door, and after a spatial fluctuation, Su Xiao arrived at a place similar to a grocery store. The prompt appeared later.

【You have arrived at Hunter Guild Branch 109.】

Su Xiao looked around at the furnishings, mostly wooden structures, and had a sense of the times. This place was not the headquarters of the Hunter Guild. He must complete a commission, receive a physical "Hunter Badge", and complete the corresponding registration before he could go to the headquarters of the Hunter Guild. The place he came to now was a branch that could accept commissions but had no other business.

Su Xiao came to the wooden counter. Through the wooden fence, he saw an old man sitting in the counter. This scarred old man looked at Su Xiao and asked: "Person from the Paradise faction?"

"Yes."

"Then it's more convenient, you look at the commission list yourself."

After speaking, the scarred old man continued to fiddle with the wood carving in his hand and ignored Su Xiao.

Su Xiao tried to activate the commission list with the disguised brand. A list similar to the faction store appeared in front of him. The content on it was all commissions that could be performed in this world, and commissions in other worlds had to be turned to the later pages.

After a preliminary check, Su Xiao saw that there were many exotic beasts that were rewarded. Some of the rewards were soul coins, and some were precipitated glaze. Not long after, he knew what he wanted. Regarding the Soul Reaper commission, the good news was that the reward for this commission was precipitated glaze. He continued to look down, and a commission attracted his attention.

【Hunting Commission: Shadow of the Law-Breaker.】

Commission content: Kill Shadow of the Law-Breaker Kuku Lin Bai Ye (after accepting the commission, you can get part of this person's information. Because few people who fight with this person survive, there is little information about this person).

Reward amount: 1.5 million soul coins.
