Chapter 860

The Bofengshui Sect was somewhat surprised, yet also felt a sense of relief.

Su Xiao Xiao: "...... Bofengshui Sect, let me remind you: in task selection, a large portion depends on luck."

"Not merely on speed!"

The Fourth Hokage: "......"

Bofengshui Sect fell silent.

At this moment, he seemed to understand why, despite being an outstanding ninja with unparalleled speed, he had never succeeded in securing tasks.

Yet after thinking it over, Bofengshui Sect found it perfectly reasonable.

If speed alone guaranteed task acquisition, there would be no reason why Clark, who possesses superhuman speed, could not secure them.

Kill Teacher: "...... Actually, I only meant to try at first! I never expected to be selected."

"But I truly need points...... so, apologies, everyone."

Su Xiao Xiao: "Kill Teacher, no need to apologize! After all, the task mode is... a competitive mode."

"As long as your own strength is sufficient and won't drag the mission down, everyone may participate."

As long as one's own strength is sufficient, they won't hold back this mission! Everyone can participate.

Su Han saw Kill Teacher say this and was momentarily speechless, finally only sighing—Kill Teacher still lacked experience in the Society.

But over time, things should improve.

I am the Hou Jue: "......"

Marquis Wo Ban's eyebrow twitched—he had been in Nippon: Youshi Kai Wu Shuang when the task selection began, so he hadn't noticed.

By the time he focused his attention on the Society, he discovered the tasks had already been claimed.

At this moment, Marquis Wo Ban felt as if his heart had been pierced by knives—he felt he had missed a fortune.

Marquis Wo Ban glared, his killing intent surging, and let out a low growl.

"Susano-o! You dare flee? Pay me back with your life for the points I lost! How could your divine life possibly compensate for my losses?"

With his roar, Marquis Wo Ban drew an invisible bow in midair, activating Hercules' Power to Slay a Hundred Heads; terrifying light coalesced into a single arrow that shot out with a whoosh.

With a plop, Susano-o's half-body was pierced and exploded, divine blood spraying.

Susano-o nearly wept, feeling deeply wronged.

I didn't provoke you or offend you—why did you suddenly burst into my home to kill me?

What did I do? I'm a non-submissive god, but I've reformed now! And yet, you're acting like you're the one suffering—why do you look more wronged than me? What loss do you even have?!

Words choked in his throat; in the end, Susano-o could only flee while sobbing and roaring.

"You're not even a Godslayer! No Godslayer is this strong!"

"Enough talk! Die!"

Marquis Wo Ban descended from the heavens, activating the Divine Power of Storm and Tide.

Lightning cracked, thunder rolled, and torrential rain poured down.

Within a few breaths, vast stretches of Youshi were transformed into Wang Yang's ocean.

Divine power flowed through the seawater, successfully binding Susano-o.

Then, Marquis Wo Ban, face twisted in fury, raised the colossal axe-sword forged from the Power to Slay a Hundred Heads and brought it crashing down upon Susano-o's head.

"Lost! Totally ripped off!"

Marquis Wo Ban sighed to the heavens.

Non-submissive gods are never available as Society tasks—once this wave passes, they'll be gone forever.

The already dying Susano-o heard this and rolled his eyes.

He simply could not endure the shock—he died outright.

Feeling the convergence of divine power, Marquis Wo Ban felt a strange emptiness.

Su Xiao Xiao: "...... Since the task participants have been selected, let's depart now."

Kill Teacher: "I'm ready—anytime."

Shi Qi Kuang San: "Ara ara! I have a slight little problem—could you spare me a moment?"

Shi Qi Kuang San: "I just found Princess Yato no Tōka and gained her trust—I've had her keep eating and drinking on the streets. Can the Guild Master give me some time? I need to settle her first!"

Ti Qie Hui Li: "...... Miss Shi Qi Kuang San has truly walked down this path."

My Little Sister Can't Be That Cute: "Poor Wuhe Shidao—he's about to have all his corners pulled by Shi Qi Kuang San... pfft hahaha, I couldn't help laughing."

Wei Bo: "I don't see a problem... we're all Spirits! I believe Miss Shi Qi Kuang San will treat the others... Spirits... well."

Miss Xia Shizi: "...... I feel some Spirits' corners are harder to pry—even Shi Qi Kuang San might struggle."

Shi Qi Kuang San: "Ara ara, let's act first! There's always a way."

Fallen Angel: Twelve-Winged Black Cat Clan: "By the way... who says the Battle Arena world belongs to Wuhe Shidao? It could just as easily be the feminized Wuhe Shizhi."

Wei Bo: "Come to think of it... Wuhe Shidao isn't that interesting! But Wuhe Shizhi is super cute."

Miss Xia Shizi: "...... There are so many beautiful girls in the Society, yet you don't praise them—you praise a guy dressed as a girl!"

Miss Xia Shizi: "Clearly, all of you are broken."

Miss Xia Shizi expressed her contempt for the Society's perverted male members.

Ichiyō Tsukuyomi: "......"

Ichiyō Tsukuyomi stated he had no such thoughts.

Please don't include him when you launch your broadside.

Su Xiao Xiao: "...... Xiao Zhizhi Shu."

"Are you in a hurry right now?"

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "I'm fine—I've already mobilized missile agencies from every nation and destroyed most of the Hive Nests."

The Fallen Angel Twelve-Winged Black Cat Clan: "Most of them... meaning there are still a few left?"

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "Yes! One landed in the East Japan sea area! But East Japan has academies—they should be able to hold out."

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "Another one landed in Greater Australia!"

Xiao Tongtong: "... Wait a moment! One landed in East Japan:!"

Xiao Tongtong: "I find this incredible! Miss Xiao Zhizhi Shu, a total sister-lover, would actually allow a hive to fall in East Japan:!"

Gao Ban Tongnai nearly doubted her own eyes.

This seemed to contradict Xiao Zhizhi Shu's character! If the hive had landed in Great Britain or the United States but East Japan: remained unharmed, everyone in the guild would find it normal.

But to let only East Japan: and Greater Australia each receive a hive—this is beyond incredible! Remember, if a hive lands in East Japan:, Xiao Zhizhi Shu, as a school student, might very well don her battle armor and go to fight.

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "I am indeed worried. But there's nothing to be done."

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "Besides, I'm already on my way to East Japan: —nothing will go wrong!"

Ti Qie Hui Li: "..."

Miss Xia Shizi: "..."

The Fourth Hokage: "..."

Mengqi Lage: "..."

Su Xiao Xiao: "... It looks like you've already made up your mind to abandon Greater Australia."

Su Han sighed faintly at this, but said nothing more.

Whether Xiao Zhizhi Shu decides to save a place is her own business.

Demanding that Xiao Zhizhi Shu save the entire world is merely moral coercion.

Not just Su Han—even others would say nothing on this matter.

Not everyone in the guild is good.

Take Marquis Wo Ban, for instance—he joins missions not out of any sense of justice, but simply for the thrill of battle and the pursuit of points.

Take Aizen—Su Han now finds it hard to fathom what Aizen is thinking.

But Su Han believes Aizen is no longer as lonely as he was in the original Soul Reaper story.

Now, even if Aizen has his own intentions, as long as he doesn't harm the guild, Su Han won't interfere.
