Chapter 3970: Dungeon

Learning that if the plan succeeded, each person could share hundreds of thousands of Soul Coins, Luingard, whose expression had been stiff throughout, squeezed out a few smiles. Soul Girl's eyes became clearer, and as for the old grudge of the soul trap in the last round? What soul trap? Is there such a thing? She didn't remember it. Stop fart

As for the Bandaged Man, the rule-breaker—what rule-breaker? Who said he was a rule-breaker? He was clearly undercover among the rule-breakers for the sake of 900,000 Soul Coins... ah, no! For the sake of abandoning evil and following the good, he decided to temporarily turn over a new leaf.

Su Xiao did not have many friends, but among them were two Necromancy-types, Solomon and the Necromancy Girl. Even with the strength of the Necromancer Grandmaster Solomon, he was so poor that he had pried the gems off the sword of his permanent summon, the "Death Lord," to sell them. The three Necromancy-types before him, whose resource-gathering abilities were inferior to Solomon's, must be so starved for Soul Coins that they were practically begging for food.

"When do we start, and who are we going after?"

The Necromancy Girl's eyes, pitch-black at the bottom with dark red pupils, were now filled with killing intent; no one could stop her from obtaining this massive sum of Soul Coins.

"We start now."

Su Xiao stood up and walked out of the banquet hall, the three of them following in succession. Fanny hesitated, unsure if she should participate in this matter. Just then, Su Xiao, who had reached the door, stopped and looked at Fanny, causing Fanny to point at herself: "Is there a share for me too?"

"You have other things to do."

"Of course not."

Fanny quickly caught up. After the group left the apartment, they boarded the Lord Train at the backyard clearing. Amu, Bubu Wang, and Benny stayed behind, while Baja accompanied Su Xiao. A moment later, the Lord Train started.

Two hours later, in front of a skeletal palace deep within the "Bone Wasteland" in the northernmost region of this world, the Lord Train slowed and stopped. With a hiss, the coolant sprayed onto the rail wheels evaporated into a large amount of white mist. The carriage door opened, and Lu Yingade, dressed in black robes, stepped off the train, followed by the Necromancy Girl and the others.

The group arrived before the skeletal palace and discovered that this place was already shrouded in a large-scale concealment barrier, set up by someone long ago.

Walking into the skeletal palace, it was very spacious. On the ground was a layer of solidified bone-white chitin, convenient for engraving formation diagrams. Defensive spells were set up on the walls, and the only entrance slowly lowered.

"My dear friend, everything is ready, just waiting for you to arrive."

Caesar suddenly appeared, causing the three Necromancy-types to reveal vigilance. More than ninety percent of Necromancy-types were not good at melee combat, with the exception of someone like Solomon. Therefore, they were quite wary of Caesar's sudden appearance.

The reason for bringing the three Necromancy-types here this time was to use the undead characteristics of their summons to conquer various "dungeons"—that's right, the "regional dungeons" of the Cursed Land.

Su Xiao had previously obtained the World Core of the "Cursed Land" and gained ownership of the world. After submitting it, the Reincarnation Paradise notarized this world. If it were just that, there wouldn't be the current plan. The key to the matter was that after the Scarlet, Nether, and Blazing Sun distortions invaded the Cursed Land, a huge change occurred in this place.

According to Su Xiao's judgment, numerous "dungeon" areas would appear in this world later, attracting many powerful contractors from the Reincarnation Paradise and Apocalypse Paradise to come here to grind dungeons, but that was at least a matter for several months later.

The problem was that this world originally had several "dungeon" areas. After the invasion of the Scarlet, Nether, and Blazing Sun distortions, these "dungeon" areas underwent metamorphosis and strengthening. Currently, there were no explorers in this world, and these dungeons were in an "initial notarized state with no one having cleared them." The amount of resources inside reached a staggering level.

Not only that, these initial dungeon areas were unique. The elite monsters and big bosses inside were actually the original strange demons, dream demons, and magic monsters of this world, transformed after being eroded by the power of Original Sin. Once killed, they would not respawn.

This meant that in a few months, whichever squad arrived in this world first and successfully cleared these "dungeons in the initial notarized state" would profit so much they could laugh in their sleep.

After Caesar wore the "Abyss Jar" to investigate, he discovered a total of 10 such "initial dungeons" in the Cursed Land. Naturally, such an opportunity to reap benefits could not be missed.

The problem was that Su Xiao had already left the Cursed Land, but this did not stump him and Caesar. After the two planned it out, they had a countermeasure.

First of all, the current Cursed Land had three major areas: the Scarlet Curse Zone, the Nether Spreading Zone, and the Blazing Sun Distortion Zone. Not to mention going to grind dungeons in this world, just entering it would lead to rapid death due to the dangerous environment.

Su Xiao had a way to deal with the dangerous environments of these three major areas. For example, to deal with the Scarlet Curse Zone, he would first extract a small amount of Scarlet Power from the "Book of Original Sin: Page 3," and then use a sealing spell to seal this Scarlet Power into a mark.

As long as this Scarlet Mark was branded on the body, entering the "Scarlet Curse Zone" would inevitably prevent erosion.

The Nether Spreading Zone and the Blazing Sun Distortion Zone could be solved in a similar way, but another problem arose: who should go? Other than Su Xiao himself, if anyone else had the "Scarlet Mark" or "Nether Mark" branded on them, even if they successfully conquered those initial dungeons and obtained massive gains, the subsequent Scarlet or Nether erosion would surely leave this person with little time to live.

Since he couldn't find a collaborator to go in person, finding a Summoner and letting their summons go to the "Cursed Continent" seemed like a good choice. But thinking carefully, this was unlikely; when living summons were about to be branded with the "Scarlet Curse," they would be scared out of their wits.

But if he cooperated with the Necromancy-types, that would solve all problems. It could ensure both the quantity and quality of cannon fodder. As for the aftereffects of being branded with the "Scarlet Mark," there were no aftereffects; the Necromancy-types could directly dispel the undead or specter. Plus, Necromancy-type summons had the strongest automatic execution ability among all summoning systems.

After hearing this narration from Baja, the three Necromancy-types nodded. As long as they didn't brand their permanent summons with the "Scarlet Mark," losing some powerful summons wasn't a problem. They contracted undead summons not like most summoning types who coaxed them; it was a forced contract.

"But how do we send the undead creatures into those dungeons on the Cursed Continent?"

The Necromancy Girl asked the question the other two also wanted to know. Lu Yingade, among them, said:

"Even if we really send them over, the relevant notarization is also a problem. Without a notarized identity, the materials obtained from killing rewards will be in a non-notarized state and cannot be brought out of that world."

"Correct."

The Bandaged Man agreed with Lu Yingade's statement. However, Su Xiao and Caesar had long since prepared for these problems. Baja, on Su Xiao's shoulder, said:

"Three, our next operation will be 'a little' unconventional, but rest assured."

Saying this, Baja spread his wings diagonally toward Su Xiao and introduced: "My boss is a Hunter," Baja then pointed to Caesar: "This is an Arbiter of the Reincarnation Paradise," after finishing, Baja pointed to Fanny: "This is a Battle Angel of the Apocalypse Paradise. With this lineup of ours, we are definitely all good people."

Baja's words left the Necromancy Girl, Lu Yingade, and the Bandaged Man looking at each other in dismay. All three felt that if he said Fanny was a good person, they would believe it, but Bai Ye and Caesar...

The three looked at each other, and although they all saw the meaning in each other's eyes, hindered by the hundreds of thousands of Soul Coins, the three Necromancy-types all wore expressions of "You are right."

Ignoring the three Necromancy-types, Su Xiao began to set up a teleportation formation on the ground. This time, he was setting up a "World-Tier Law-Extinguishing Teleportation Formation." Reasonably, the cost was not low, but he had obtained many materials for "World-Tier Teleportation Formations" when stocking up at the Golden City on the Lord Continent, and now they were just in time to be used.

One hour later, a "World-Tier Law-Extinguishing Teleportation Formation" with a diameter of over 30 meters was completed. Spatial fluctuations diffused over this teleportation formation. After seeing this teleportation formation, Fanny revealed wariness. She had tried a long-distance "Law-Extinguishing Teleportation Formation," which had made her feel the beauty of life. Now, this World-Tier teleportation formation was likely to have double the power.

"Oh ho~, I didn't see that coming. As a Sword Art Grandmaster, you actually know how to set up a teleportation formation, and it looks quite professional. But what is the spell on the outermost circle? It doesn't look like a spatial spell."

The Necromancy Girl was knowledgeable. Su Xiao, who was testing the stability of the teleportation, ended his resonance with the core and said: "Kinetic energy absorption spell."

"Hmm? What kind of strange combination is this? What is it for?"

"To protect you and me."

"What? Are we going to use this teleportation formation later? Isn't it for teleporting undead summons to the Cursed Land?"

"We won't use it."

"Then how does it involve protecting you and me? What a strange spell setting."

The Necromancy Girl studied it for a while and still couldn't figure out what kind of operation it was to put a dozen circles of kinetic energy absorption spells around a World-Tier teleportation formation. However, she would understand soon enough.

This plan looked simple at first glance—just using the Necromancy-types' summons to grind dungeons in the Cursed Land—but the actual operation was not simple at all. After Su Xiao confirmed that the teleportation formation was fine, he formed a squad and then pulled Fanny and the three Necromancy-types into the squad.

He first kicked the Necromancy Girl out. After a vacancy appeared in the team, he immediately pulled Caesar in, then transferred the captaincy to Caesar. Caesar transferred the captaincy to Lu Yingade, and in Lu Yingade's somewhat bewildered expression, he kicked him out.

【Hint: Nicholas Caesar has activated his unique ability "Faction Bully" (Active, Lv. EX) on you. You are about to be voted out of the squad.】

【You have been banished from the squad due to the voting result of 5/5 (which includes you casting a vote for yourself under the influence of Nicholas Caesar's unique ability "Swindling" (Passive, Lv. EX)).】

【You have been re-invited to the squad as the acting captain.】

【You have been kicked out of the squad.】

【You have been invited back to the squad...】

A massive amount of squad kick and invite notifications scrolled crazily before Lu Yingade's eyes, reaching the level of nearly a thousand per second. This caused Lu Yingade to frown deeply. However, he did not know that the Bandaged Man in the team at this moment had an expression of unbelievable shock in his eyes.

The squad member slot where Lu Yingade was located, due to his repeated kicking and re-inviting, eventually produced a truly magical squad member slot. This was a "Captain Slot," but it was both empty and in a state of having a member. Before the Bandaged Man could figure out what was going on, he had already been kicked out of the squad.

Next, Fanny became the captain through voting. Her avatar in the team covered the "Captain Slot." Before she could figure out what was going on, she was also kicked out of the team, and then Su Xiao was appointed as captain, followed by being kicked out of the team.

Immediately after, the three Necromancy-types were successively invited into the squad, also appointed as captain, and kicked out of the team. Eventually, only Caesar remained in the squad. He took out various badges and many strange, junk-like items. Wearing the Abyss Jar, he began to dance and gesticulate, which caused the Necromancy Girl to subconsciously take a few steps back. After all, a little old man wearing a jar with a dark, eerie aura having a seizure was quite scary, especially since the other party had already started to collapse and go into shock.

"This... is there no problem?"

Lu Yingade spoke. He was mainly worried that Caesar would suddenly kick the bucket, causing some subsequent notarization problems. He was an Executioner of the Holy Light Paradise, with a rank equivalent to the Hunter of the Reincarnation Paradise and the Battle Angel of the Apocalypse Paradise.

"No problem at all, rest assured."

As soon as Baja finished speaking, Caesar twitched on the ground, as if he had kicked the bucket and died. However, a moment later, he stood up as if nothing had happened, took off the Abyss Jar, pulled Su Xiao into the squad, and then exited the team himself.

Su Xiao successively pulled Fanny, the Necromancy Girl, Lu Yingade, and the Bandaged Man back into the squad. The four were astonished to find that this squad with a maximum of 5/5 members actually had six member slots. The member avatar at the very top was the squad captain named "Captain."

This member named Captain had Fanny's luck judgment, Su Xiao's notarization authority, and the ability authority related to the three Necromancy-types.

That is to say, using this squad to fight in the dungeons of the Cursed Land first solved the notarization problem of kill rewards. The main notarization authority was with Su Xiao. In this squad, the summons of the three Necromancy-types were equivalent to his summons, and he possessed the ownership of the Cursed Land. Killing enemies in the dungeons here had perfectly complete profit notarization, and all obtained profits were notarized from the start.

One problem was that with Su Xiao's "Good Fortune" luck, he might grind an entire dungeon and not necessarily drop any items. Regarding this, he and Caesar had long since considered it, so this vest named "Captain" used Fanny's luck.

Su Xiao asked Fanny to come closer. Fanny shook her head, both cowardly and firmly. After a few seconds of stalemate, Fanny approached hesitantly.

Su Xiao took out a thumb-sized bottle of golden divine blood and poured a drop onto the tip of his index finger. He tapped his index finger on the side of Fanny's face, outlining a golden mark. A situation that astonished Fanny occurred: her luck attribute soared from 56 points and didn't stop until it reached 275 points.

Seeing this, Su Xiao frowned slightly. He looked at Fanny and then at the bottle of divine blood in his hand. It wasn't because the effect was weak, but because the luck divine blood of the Goddess of Luck actually had such outrageous strength. He had tried it before, but it only increased his luck attribute by 2 points, and the duration wasn't long. But used on Fanny, not only was the effect strong, but the duration lasted for 74 hours.

Fanny was stunned. Before she could ask, Su Xiao pulled up her sleeve and added a few more golden marks. Fanny's luck attribute temporarily soared to 328 points. If the Goddess of Luck saw this scene, she would definitely smile without saying a word, with the meaning in her eyes being: 'I told you, my luck power is very strong; it's just that someone else is too unlucky.'

Compared to Fanny, whose luck skyrocketed, the three Necromancy-types fell into shocked bewilderment. In fact, it wasn't the fault of these three; the "Captain" in the squad, who could be called a notarization Frankenstein, truly made the three feel lost. In the past, let alone seeing it, they hadn't even thought of similar things.

The Necromancy Girl and Lu Yingade both looked at the Bandaged Man, who was a rule-breaker. The Bandaged Man clenched his fist, covered his mouth, and coughed dryly, implying that even if he were a rule-breaker, he couldn't come up with such a mind-numbing operation.

This made the Necromancy Girl, as a Death Ranger, and Lu Yingade, as an Executioner, unable to help but worry whether such an operation would lead to notarization risks.

"Bai Ye, is our current behavior a bit... over the line?"

Hearing the Necromancy Girl's words, Su Xiao and Caesar both revealed confusion. Caesar asked: "This lady, tell us, where have we gone over the line?"

"The notarization of the five of us is all gathered on this Frankenstein captain. It is simply... omnipotent."

"Interrupting for a moment, may I ask this lady, what is the true meaning of teaming up?"

Hearing Caesar say this, the Necromancy Girl pondered for two seconds and replied: "All team members coordinate to achieve a goal."

"Exactly. Look, isn't this what we are doing—coordinating? We worked together to create this captain. A more intuitive notarization is that we each perform our own duties, preparing to conquer the dungeons of the Cursed Land. What is the problem with this? Why would there be notarization risks?"

"This~"

The Necromancy Girl was suddenly speechless. This was like cooking a dish; normal people use a spatula a few dozen centimeters long, but here, the group was using a spatula at least 2,000 meters long, with a long handle that was crooked, spiral-shaped, and bent. The problem was that someone was actually using this bizarre spatula, which made one's expression complex, to skillfully stir-fry more than 2,000 meters away from the stove. It was particularly unscientific, but this was the fact before their eyes.

Lu Yingade rubbed his face with both hands, barely managing to accept this setting, and felt a bit better in his heart. The Necromancy Girl decided to just pretend she knew nothing. As for the Bandaged Man, he was truly feeling terrible at this moment because a thought kept appearing in his mind: Why am I the rule-breaker? Look at you guys! These two scoundrels didn't even trigger a warning with this kind of operation.

The three Necromancy-types began to summon undead creatures with complex expressions. As a result, after the first wave of undead creatures was summoned, the ownership was all with Su Xiao. The three didn't care at first, but after summoning hundreds of powerful undead units, they felt a bit confused. How could a melee technique grandmaster carry so many summoning contracts?

Su Xiao certainly could. He had a real intelligence attribute as high as 800 points and a soul strength of 1500 points. He signaled the three Necromancy-types to let their respective summons crowd onto the teleportation formation, and then he began to set the teleportation coordinates.

Caesar had already set spatial coordinates at the entrances of those dungeons in the Cursed Land. The danger level of these initial dungeons was Lv. 90–Lv. 96, totaling:

Sun Temple: Lv. 90 dungeon.

Giant Slaughterhouse: Lv. 91 dungeon.

Dark Blood Black Nest: Lv. 92 dungeon.

Remnant Cemetery: Lv. 93 dungeon.

Scarlet Blood Sea: Lv. 93 area.

Scarlet Island: Lv. 94 area.

Secret Island: Lv. 95 area.

Scarlet Island · Mad Laugh Town: Lv. 96 area (Overlord-level).

Blazing Sun Bell: Lv. 96 area (Overlord-level).

Nether Purgatory: Lv. 96 area (Overlord-level).

The first target was the "Sun Temple." After confirming the coordinates, Su Xiao constructed a crystal wall 2 meters high and 50 centimeters thick in front of him, then pressed one hand on the teleportation formation's control hub.

Boom~!

After a loud noise that resounded through the soul, the Necromancy Girl's vision was shrouded in white light.

"Aiseyin, Aiseyin!"

A calling voice came from the front. In the hazy white light, the Necromancy Girl saw her former best friend, but she vaguely remembered that the other party had died in a world contest during the third tier.

"Come over here."

The best friend standing in the white light smiled and beckoned to the Necromancy Girl. But for some reason, she suddenly felt a little pain on her left cheek, and she could vaguely hear a slapping sound in her ears, which caused the surrounding white light to gradually dissipate.

"!"

The Necromancy Girl suddenly opened her eyes, subconsciously sat up, and gasped for air. She looked around, having survived a disaster, and her bewildered gaze showed that she hadn't realized what had happened.

"Where is the enemy?"

This question from the Necromancy Girl left Lu Yingade, who had a bump on his forehead, and the Bandaged Man, whose bandages were somewhat loose, looking at each other in silence.

Seeing this, Baja coughed lightly and said: "Not an enemy attack, it was just the aftermath caused by the teleportation. A normal phenomenon, no need to be nervous."

"?"

The Necromancy Girl stared at Baja, as if she might punch Baja at any moment. After some observation, confirming that it really was the aftermath of the teleportation, she suddenly understood why there were so many kinetic energy absorption spells on the outer circle of the World-Tier teleportation formation.

Ignoring the Necromancy Girl's resentful gaze, Su Xiao came to the center of the summoning formation diagram. This was one of the reasons he could contract many undead creatures at the same time. Currently, the first batch of undead creatures had been teleported to the entrance of the "Sun Temple" in the Cursed Land. What needed to be done next was to maximize profits.

Su Xiao took a ring off his finger; this was one of the rings he was wearing, 【Life Source Monarch】. In the past, he had to kill enemies himself to trigger the effect of this nourishing equipment. But now, his temporary vest was "Undead Summoner," so he didn't need to kill enemies himself to trigger this equipment. To be safe, he embedded this equipment in the very center of the summoning formation diagram.

【Life Source Monarch】

Equipment Effect 1: Life Hunt (Nourish · Passive): After killing a strong enemy, this equipment can absorb the "Life Source" of the strong enemy, thereby storing, filtering, and converting it. When enough Life Source is absorbed, it will form a "Life Source Essence."

Hint: Each "Life Source Essence" absorbed will permanently increase health by 200,000 points. You can absorb a maximum of 5 "Life Source Essences."

Life Source Essences absorbed: 1/5.

Equipment Effect 2: Monarch (Core · Passive): After successfully absorbing 5 "Life Source Essences," this equipment will transform into "Form 2."

Hint: This equipment has a total of three forms: First Stage · Nourishing Equipment, Second Stage · Killing Equipment, Third Stage · Devouring Equipment.

In this way, after the undead creatures surrounded and killed the final boss of a dungeon, the corresponding notarization could be triggered, and through the summoning formation diagram, the "Life Source" of the strong enemy could be absorbed and gathered into the 【Life Source Monarch】.

Su Xiao opened the team channel. The current progress of the "Sun Temple" conquest appeared. The undead summons were still very capable, having conquered one-fifth of the way before being wiped out by the distorted monsters inside the "Sun Temple."

Because Su Xiao and the others were not in that "dungeon," kill rewards could not be directly awarded, leading to the scene of monsters dropping items or treasure chests upon death. It was only necessary to let the undead summons collect them and then summon them to the skeletal palace where the group was located to complete the collection of spoils.

After the preliminary test showed no problems, the next step was to repeat the above process. This time, it was not just conquering the "Sun Temple" dungeon, but successively teleporting a large number of undead summons over, with ten dungeons advancing simultaneously.

After 4 hours and 25 minutes, the big boss of the "Sun Temple," the Blood-Burning God Servant, was killed. Su Xiao came to the summoning formation diagram and saw that the engravings in the diagram were gradually being filled with bright red "Life Source," and then these "Life Sources" were absorbed by the 【Life Source Monarch】 at the center.

Seeing this scene, Su Xiao knew that this time it was a success. Among the total of ten dungeons, including the three Overlord-level dungeons, there were more than a dozen big bosses and three Overlord-level bosses. If all were killed, the amount of "Life Source" could potentially form 3–4 "Life Source Essences."

This increase of at least 600,000 health points played a very important role in the upcoming battle. Not to mention, the ultimate trump card for this round depended entirely on grinding dungeons in the Cursed Land this time.

The increasingly abundant profits in the squad's item list made the Necromancy Girl, Lu Yingade, and the Bandaged Man more and more motivated in their summoning. Those Origin-level and Eternal-level materials or gems looked very valuable, especially since some items had "Scarlet," "Nether," and "Blazing Sun Distortion" attributes, making their value increase by more than several times.

In the skeletal palace, having nothing to do, Su Xiao began to meditate. Until three o'clock in the second half of the night, he received a hint that the "Life Source" accumulated by the 【Life Source Monarch】 had reached 100%, and a "Life Source Essence" could be synthesized. As he chose to synthesize it, half an hour later, a "Life Source Essence" appeared in his hand.

Attempting to absorb the "Life Source Essence" in his hand, a small amount of his original life force merged into it, causing the "Life Source Essence" to gradually dissolve, first merging into his palm, then flowing to all parts of his body. The "Life Source Essence" that took several days to fully absorb last time only took a few hours to be mostly absorbed this time.

Looking at the three Necromancy-types, these three had been repeatedly summoning high-combat-power undead summons, which was not an easy task. However, looking at the expressions of the three Necromancy-types, they had no intention of resting at all. After Su Xiao checked that the "Scarlet Mark," "Nether Mark," and "Sun Mark" on the summoning formation diagram were all stable, he took out an ancient book on sealing and changed his title to start reading.

Time passed slowly. When Su Xiao received the hint again, it was that the Life Source absorbed by the 【Life Source Monarch】 was overflowing again. He absorbed another "Life Source Essence." This time, it only took him two-plus hours to fully absorb this Life Source.

Checking the dungeon conquest progress, a total of ten dungeons had been conquered, with five remaining: "Scarlet Blood Sea," "Scarlet Island," "Mad Laugh Town," "Blazing Sun Bell," and "Nether Purgatory."

The dazzling array of items in the squad's profit list made the three Necromancy-types, whose eyes were tired to the point of bloodshot, look spirited. The question of whether to rest for a few hours was completely ignored.

This dungeon conquest lasted until the afternoon of the next day without anyone noticing. The skeletal palace already had some signs of life. On the chitin-constructed ground, there were several rugs and bedding, and various cold foods were placed on the dining table. The World-Tier teleportation formation was no longer stable.

In Su Xiao's hand was the third "Life Source Essence" obtained this time. He estimated that it was not enough to form a fourth one. He sat cross-legged on the ground and absorbed it. After all, having already absorbed three "Life Source Essences," it only took him a little over an hour to successfully absorb this "Life Source Essence."

Checking his personal profile, he saw his health had reached 5.41 million points. The growth of his health during this period was very rapid, but considering this was a supreme-level world contest, having this rate of increase was normal. The higher the risk, the greater the profit.

It seemed not far from his health reaching 6 million points, but in fact, it was not. Top-tier nourishing equipment was hard to come by, let alone equipment with life-nourishing characteristics. Once the gain from 【Life Source Monarch】 reached its limit, the subsequent hundreds of thousands of health points would definitely be very difficult to increase.

Continuing to meditate to stabilize his original life force, when time reached the early morning of the third day, the last Overlord-level dungeon, "Nether Purgatory," was cleared. Su Xiao came to the summoning formation diagram and made a virtual grasping motion downward with one hand. With a "pop," the summoning formation diagram was damaged under his detonation, the three Original Sin characteristic marks dissipated, and the 【Life Source Monarch】 ring was held in his palm.

"Three..."

Su Xiao looked at the Necromancy Girl, Lu Yingade, and the Bandaged Man as he spoke, seeing the three of them with dark circles under their eyes and bloodshot eyes.

"Can we finally split the profits?"

The Necromancy Girl spoke. At this moment, she looked as if she had put on smoky makeup.

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak. He opened the sealed door of the skeletal palace and boarded the Lord Train. The group set off for Fire Tower City on the southernmost side of this world. On the speeding train, the three Necromancy-types looked at each other. The three of them were now so tired that their heads felt heavy and their feet light. If they faced a double-cross, it would definitely be extremely dangerous.

Su Xiao came to the workbench in the bedroom and successively took out the profits from this time, including cursed items, Scarlet characteristic materials, Nether gems, and distortion crystals. Because the drop rate was linked to Fanny's luck, the resource output far exceeded expectations.

Taking out the "Ring Stigma," Su Xiao began to synthesize the same type of Scarlet characteristic materials, Nether gems, and distortion crystals using a three-in-one method. He completed the synthesis before arriving near Fire Tower City. It could be said that this increased the value of the profits this time by at least 25%.

The train slowed and stopped. A small wooden house stood alone in the wilderness. Su Xiao and Caesar got off the train. After walking into the hut, inside were two members of the Shadow Chamber of Commerce who had been waiting for a long time, as well as an appraiser.

After less than an hour of identification and value estimation, Su Xiao and Caesar returned to the Lord Train. The train started, and the group sat around the dining table. On the table were various delicacies from the Witch World packed by the two members of the Shadow Chamber of Commerce when they came. The Necromancy Girl, Lu Yingade, and the Bandaged Man were all hungry, so naturally, they didn't stand on ceremony.

Su Xiao took out several bottles of elemental fine wine. Even Lu Yingade, who didn't drink much, drank a few cups of this good wine. After eating and drinking to their fill, Su Xiao took out four Soul Coin savings cards, each with a face value of 960,000 Soul Coins.

The Necromancy Girl, Lu Yingade, the Bandaged Man, and Fanny each got one. As for Su Xiao and Caesar, the two split the remaining 2.95 million Soul Coins equally.

【Hint: You have obtained 1,476,500 Soul Coins.】

Besides this, the 600,000 health points Su Xiao increased and the three trump cards he obtained were all very important profits.

Caesar's profits on the side certainly weren't just what appeared on the surface. Regarding this, Su Xiao was not curious. His cooperation with Caesar had always been like this: the profits on the surface were split 50/50, and as for the hidden profits obtained by their own abilities, they naturally belonged to each of them. They didn't probe, envy, or be jealous of each other.

"Through fire and water, Brother Bai Ye!"

The Necromancy Girl's smile was very sweet. In fact, before becoming a Necromancer, she didn't value money, but after experiencing the poverty whipping of the Necromancy-type, she now found every Soul Coin so pleasing to the eye.

"Through mountains of blades and seas of fire, Brother Bai Ye."

Lu Yingade, who was always silent, raised his wine glass and drank it in one gulp. The Bandaged Man on the side pondered for a while, and being even less eloquent, he squeezed out a sentence:

"Me too."

This cooperation was very pleasant. In the afternoon of that day, the train stopped in the courtyard of the Prince's Manor. The three Necromancy-types got off the train one after another and met Kane, who was passing by. Kane looked at the three with some surprise and asked:

"Bai Ye, how did you harm the three of them like this? They still have to help you charge the formation tomorrow."

Hearing Kane's words, the old priest of the Magic Scythe team looked over from the balcony on the second floor and said in surprise: "Whoa~! Did you three meet a Soul-Sucking Banshee? Come up quickly, I'll help you heal for a while."

The three Necromancy-types were in a very good mood, but no matter how others asked, the three of them were evasive. This was exactly what Su Xiao wanted to see.

Su Xiao returned to the bedroom on the third floor and fell asleep as soon as he hit the bed. Tomorrow was the time to go to Dawn City to decide the outcome.

The next morning, the sun rose, at the southernmost side of the Sleep Ruins.

On a mountain peak more than ten kilometers away from Dawn City, 28 participants from eight teams were standing or sitting there. Everyone looked at Dawn City in the distance, where grey-white mist was rising. This was the most dangerous confrontation before entering the Dawn Ruins.
