Chapter 464

~10 min read 1,879 words

Thump, thump...

The sound of falling to the ground came one after another. The hundreds of Thorn Scorpions around fell to the ground one after another, and green blood stained the surrounding land.

The land near the Zerg nest was very special, covered by a layer of green moss.

This was a type of Zerg facility named 'Decomposition Bacteria'. Creatures that died on the decomposition bacteria would be decomposed very quickly, and the nutrients obtained would be transported back to the Mother Nest.

Killing hundreds of Thorn Scorpions in one move—not to mention Old Man Shi and the others, even Su Xiao himself was somewhat surprised.

Just now, he suddenly had an urge to slash. Although slashing this move consumed quite a bit of stamina, the power was beyond imagination.

Steadying his breathing, Su Xiao couldn't help but feel excited. The higher the level of sword art, the more magical it became; he could already use some supernatural moves, and they were self-created.

A gurgling sound came, and over a thousand Thorn Scorpions crawled out from the Hatchery. The Hatchery was clearly shriveled by one-third.

"Do it again."

Old Man Shi lay on the ground, looking at Su Xiao with excitement in his eyes.

"Impossible, this kind of move cannot be used continuously."

Although that move just now was very strong, it placed a not-insignificant burden on his arm and couldn't be used more than three times in a day.

"Then what to do? I'm at least 160 degrees now. Kaluo."

Old Man Shi looked at Kaluo. Kaluo spat out a mouthful of steam quite straightforwardly; he was already over 200 degrees.

Old Man Shi gave a bright laugh and looked at Su Xiao again.

"Bai Ye, please, my ally."

Old Man Shi took out two crystal-clear crystals from his bosom; they were Soul Crystals (Medium).

"Take me into the Zerg nest. I have no malice toward you; I just want to live. I know you are a Qiyuezhe, from a mysterious place."

Old Man Shi laid his cards on the table directly. He actually didn't want to, but according to his original plan, he was going to kill his way into the Mother Nest together with Su Xiao.

He had somewhat overestimated his body's tolerance; now his body temperature was over 160 degrees, and a Blood Vine Warrior would self-detonate when their body temperature was over 210 degrees.

"Help me obtain the Regeneration Egg, and I will let you see many things that Qiyuezhe dream of seeing!"

Old Man Shi finally revealed his sincerity.

【Hint: You have triggered the hidden mission: Sun Tribe.】

【Sun Tribe】

Difficulty Level: Lv. 16

Mission Introduction: Understand the secret of the Blood Vine Warriors.

Mission Information: Understanding the secret of the Blood Vine Warriors requires the guidance of the plot character Old Man Shi.

Mission Deadline: 3 days.

Mission Reward: This is a chain mission; rewards will be given based on the mission completion degree.

Mission Penalty: None

After seeing the triggered hidden mission, Su Xiao's eyes flickered. The rewards for hidden missions were all very generous, and the gold content was super high, rewarding rare items.

Old Man Shi must have had ulterior motives before, but under the pressure of the situation, Old Man Shi had to be somewhat honest.

"Not bad."

Su Xiao took the two Soul Crystals (Medium) from Old Man Shi's hand.

"Traitor."

Kaluo glared at Old Man Shi, and Old Man Shi became instantly furious.

"Fart! Don't you want to live! If you want to live, don't give me that hypocritical stuff. What tribal honor? Let it all go to hell. If you weren't my 'eldest son', I would have killed you long ago for that matter."

Old Man Shi slapped Kaluo hard across the face, and the green leaves growing on Kaluo's face were even slapped off.

"Cowardly and afraid of death."

Slap.

Another big slap. Old Man Shi glared at Kaluo, hating that he wouldn't improve.

"As long as we can lead the tribesmen to live on, any bullshit honor can be thrown away. The Sun Tribe pursued honor, and now not a single one is left alive."

Being slapped several times by Old Man Shi, Kaluo became even more wooden. Su Xiao suspected that this kid was just slapped stupid by his dad.

The precarious cooperative relationship became a bit more solid. Although Old Man Shi still had many secrets, the two sides were now officially allied, notarized by the Reincarnation Paradise.

Blade light crisscrossed. While Old Man Shi was slapping Kaluo, Su Xiao had already begun to clear the surrounding Thorn Scorpions.

"Cross."

Su Xiao slashed out two blades out of thin air, and a cross-shaped blade light formed in mid-air.

The blade light slashed forward, and the Thorn Scorpions along the way were torn to pieces.

"Go."

Su Xiao rushed forward quickly, Old Man Shi grabbed Kaluo and followed behind, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang brought up the rear.

Along the way, blade light flickered. Su Xiao killed his way through thousands of Thorn Scorpions, slashing out a bloody path straight ahead.

A Thorn Scorpion pounced toward Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. Just as Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was about to counterattack, a wooden thorn struck.

Poof, the wooden thorn pierced into the Thorn Scorpion's body, and the Thorn Scorpion's body exploded. If one looked closely, the body structure of this Thorn Scorpion had already changed from animal to plant.

Old Man Shi panted heavily, a smile appearing on his old face.

"Are you okay?"

Old Man Shi's body temperature was getting higher and higher.

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang barked, and the Ice Goddess Halo covered Old Man Shi.

Old Man Shi's body temperature, which had reached 190 degrees, dropped rapidly. Not long after, the body temperature dropped to 150 degrees.

Old Man Shi was stunned, looking at Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang with amazement in his eyes.

Su Xiao, at the head of the team, terminated the blade light he was about to slash out. It seemed Old Man Shi was going to show more sincerity.

The small team was harmonious, but don't be naive; this harmony might only last until the Regeneration Egg was obtained.

Compared to Old Man Shi, Su Xiao felt his son Kaluo was even less trustworthy.

Although Old Man Shi was an old fox, he had a clear purpose. Kaluo was different; Su Xiao vaguely saw a death wish and madness in the other party's eyes.

Old Man Shi recovered his combat power. His combat style was to grow a wooden thorn from within his arm; all creatures he pierced would have their body structure changed, from biological to plant structure, with extremely strong lethality.

More importantly, any Thorn Scorpion pierced by Old Man Shi would, after growing leaves on its body, swarm around him and obey his commands.

After Old Man Shi and Kaluo recovered their combat power, the speed of the surprise attack accelerated; the Thorn Scorpions couldn't stop the few of them from breaking through.

Two minutes later, Su Xiao was the first to kill his way to the Mother Nest. Standing in front of the Mother Nest, Su Xiao shouted to Old Man Shi behind him: "Block them."

"No problem."

Old Man Shi put his hands together, and the dozen or so plant Thorn Scorpions around him formed a protective circle, tearing into the Thorn Scorpions that were charging over.

Su Xiao pressed his hand against the wall of the Mother Nest. The wall of the Mother Nest had the tactile feel of a meat wall, and there were meridians on the surface.

He slashed at the outer wall of the Mother Nest with his blade, and green liquid splashed everywhere. Unexpectedly, although the Zhan Long Shan broke through the defense, the wound slashed wasn't deep.

Su Xiao's body relaxed, and the hand holding the blade hung down naturally.

"How much longer!"

Old Man Shi's body temperature soared again, directly reaching 200 degrees. His lips began to crack, and his eyes were like two small suns.

"Twenty seconds."

Su Xiao was adjusting his state.

"Can only gamble, hope I can still hold on."

Old Man Shi kicked away a Thorn Scorpion that was pouncing over, one arm stretched straight, palm forward.

"Sun's Radiance."

A strong light bloomed from Old Man Shi's palm, and astonishing heat spread out.

Pop, pop...

The Thorn Scorpions in front of Old Man Shi were roasted and exploded, flames rose, and in an instant, the two or three hundred Thorn Scorpions in front of him turned into charcoal.

However, the surrounding Thorn Scorpions were already dense. The Zerg Queen felt the crisis and began to spawn troops frantically.

Zing!

The sound of a blade rang out. Although Old Man Shi didn't see Su Xiao's slash, just from the sharp feeling behind his back, he realized how strong this blade was.

A wound with a diameter of five meters appeared on the outer wall of the Mother Nest, and Su Xiao was the first to rush into the Mother Nest.

If Old Man Shi was here to find the Regeneration Egg, then Su Xiao was here to rob the Zerg. Old Man Shi was just a guide to him; both sides were seeking what they needed.

The three people and one dog rushed into the Mother Nest, and the Thorn Scorpions outside stopped outside the Mother Nest, not daring to cross the line.

In the deepest part of the Mother Nest, a beautiful woman was closing her eyes and perceiving. On the back of this beautiful woman's hand was a golden number '8'; this was the Arena King Mark, representing her ranking in the arena.

The beautiful woman's name was Aida. Aida opened her eyes, a gold coin flipping between her fingers. She looked at a gorgeous-looking insect egg not far away.

"Zerg Queen, they have killed their way in, and among them is one similar to me."

Aida was not the Zerg Queen; the Queen was resting.

"My friend, please help me block them."

The Queen's voice was very gentle, naturally giving people a sense of goodwill.

Aida shook her head.

"Although you say so, that guy is a bit strong, and full of blood aura; one look and you know he's not to be trifled with. I don't want to inexplicably form a feud with a guy like him. We two sides have no conflict."

The Zerg Queen was silent for a while, and after a long time, she spoke.

"I agree to that matter."

"Bingo, I'll be back soon. If I don't come back, it means I'm dead or I've fled, and you can choose to flee back to the Void."

The Queen inside the insect egg sighed.

"Must come back, my friend. You are the human who keeps promises the best that I have ever seen."

Aida stood up, emitting a silver bell-like laugh. Although Aida was ranked eighth in the arena, she didn't have a feeling of arrogance; she was very humble.

"Who knows, but I am the Goddess of Luck."

Halfway through her words, Aida might have felt she was a bit 'chuunibyou'.

"Uh~, a fake Goddess of Luck, haha~."

Aida actually wasn't lying; she was a luck attribute specialist, the nemesis of the 'Black Chief'!
