Chapter 1464 - 86: The Power of Apocalypse

Chapter 1464: Chapter 86: The Power of Apocalypse

Blue steel shadow energy penetrated the wound and entered the Huang Quan Marsh Alligator’s body. The giant alligator convulsed in pain, and the next moment, the bright blade slashed across its back.

A Mu was responsible for stalling the Huang Quan Marsh Alligator and restricting its terrifying large mouth, as the tank of the team; it could certainly accomplish this.

Bubu Wang initially attracted hatred by using the method of slapping the giant alligator. After the fight began, it switched back and forth between Healing System and Invisibility Series, occasionally harassing.

Su Xiao’s responsibility was to chop, as long as he could truly cause severe damage to the giant alligator.

Mud splattered everywhere, and the Huang Quan Marsh Alligator, with its severed tail, floundered in the mud for a long time. Its strength finally weakened, becoming unable to continue the Death Rotation with A Mu.

Its heart was pierced, over 40% of its organs were damaged, and after receiving 17 stabs, the Huang Quan Marsh Alligator could not hold on any longer. Its strength continued to weaken until it finally collapsed in the mud, no longer floundering.

Su Xiao flipped the long knife in his hand and pierced the head of the Huang Quan Marsh Alligator with a single stab. He had already stabbed it twice before in this spot, this was the third stab.

[You have slain the leader-level polar creature, Huang Quan Marsh Alligator.]

[You have received a Treasure Chest (Legendary).]

[You have slain a leader-level polar creature (1/2). Since leader-level polar creatures are rare species in this world, if the number slain exceeds the limit, the treasure chest reward increases by 150%, while also receiving rejection from this world.]

...

Su Xiao picked up the treasure chest from the mud and dragged the carcass of the giant alligator out of the mire.

With this giant alligator’s combat strength, acquiring a legendary treasure chest is unsurprising, to successfully kill it, Su Xiao squatted near it for two days.

This is the first leader-level polar creature Su Xiao has killed; before, he only injured but did not kill them, stopping after obtaining the flesh of those polar creatures.

Only now does he know that killing leader-level polar creatures has restrictions; killing more than two polar creatures greatly enhances the treasure chest’s value, but there are pros and cons.

Su Xiao has been rejected by the World of Xiya once, it was a terrifying experience, with meteorites pummeling down like raindrops; had he not chosen to return to Reincarnation Paradise directly, protected by the Ruins of the Annihilation Law, he would have perished amidst the meteorite shower.

The kill limit for leader-level polar creatures is two; Su Xiao doesn’t overly concern himself with this constraint, simply because many polar creatures exist in the Hot Rainforest Forest, but leader-level polar creatures are quite rare.

Finding the Huang Quan Marsh Alligator involved some luck; regarding polar creatures above leader-level, specifically lord-level, Su Xiao has yet to encounter them; though, he did meet a stronger overlord-level creature once, but that was an ally, who was upset due to receiving counterfeit goods in a trade.

Lighting a fire, skinning, cutting meat, half an hour later, the Huang Quan Marsh Alligator’s meat was roasting over the flames, its past dignity as a leader-level creature was gone.

By the fire, Bubu Wang tilted its head towards the distance, the Jungle Meow was forever crouching on a tree trunk far away; it seemed neither preference nor habit, the Jungle Meow liked maintaining a housecat physique, though its overall attributes were weaker in this form, its reaction speed improved, offering both pros and cons.

Bubu Wang tilted its head, meaning: "Kid brother, see, I once thought of treating you like this."

The Jungle Meow raised its head, meaning: "Even that dumb ox wouldn’t catch me even if I ran on two legs."

After signing the summoning contract, the Jungle Meow hasn’t changed much, but its communication with Bubu Wang greatly eased; heaven knows why Meow Star Language and Dog Language are mutual, the cat and dog exchanges reached a frequency where they could mock each other.

"Woof!"

Bubu Wang barked, meaning: "A Mu, gang up on it with me!"

’Er Gou Zi’ A Mu, straightforward as ever, grabbed the hammer and charged at the Jungle Meow; the Jungle Meow lifted its left two legs, and disappeared in a few swift strides, leaving Bubu Wang and A Mu in the mud.

In terms of speed, the Jungle Meow completely overwhelmed Bubu Wang and A Mu, but should A Mu and Bubu Wang catch hold of it, there would be suffering for this Meow Star People.

Watching the Jungle Meow’s vanished cat silhouette, Bubu Wang stomped its paw in frustration, seemingly saying: "Just wait till we get back to the exclusive room, let’s see if you’re still so arrogant."

Noticing Bubu Wang’s expression, Su Xiao’s cheek twitched, he felt an odd sensation, that was, the demolition team had gained another new member.

"Cats... might not damage furniture, hopefully won’t..."

Su Xiao took a bite of the roasted giant alligator meat, Bubu Wang could only watch on, unable to eat this giant alligator’s meat yet.

Shortly after, Su Xiao left with Bubu Wang and A Mu; not long later, the Jungle Meow jumped out from a bush, it went to the fire, using its paw to poke the roasting meat above the flames.

...

Inside the camp built by the Holy Sanctuary Paradise faction, after repelling them, Qing Ye took over and completed the 30% constructed defense base.

In the base built from giant stones and cross timber, Qing Ye leaned on a wooden chair.

"You seem bored?"

A female voice sounded.

"Of course."

While speaking, Qing Ye flipped a gold coin in his hand.

"Does scheming against others entertain you?"

An instant later, as this voice came, shadows flashed, a woman in a black dress with a black gauze on her face appeared, despite the battles in Lubei City or the chaos with the Holy Sanctuary Paradise, she had never appeared.

This woman constantly followed Qing Ye nearby; she was a Charm Specialized Contractor, it was her who helped Qing Ye eliminate two Great Envoys.

"Of course, the stronger the enemy, the more entertaining."

Qing Ye picked up four photos on the table, they were of Su Xiao, Gulu, Citrus Sister, and Solomon.

The cunning old fox Qing Ye was quite bored, he somewhat yearned for an internal conflict, to seek entertainment, but those four people he contemplated fighting, each appeared a formidable adversary.

"I suggest you give up."

"Relax, I’m very calm," Qing Ye dropped the photos and, after pondering for a moment, asked: "Are those Apocalypse Paradise folks still mining?"

"Digging away joyfully..."

The black gauze woman seemed a bit speechless.

"Is that so, then future world struggle wars will become more interesting, especially with Apocalypse as a powerful adversary."

"Oh~"

The black gauze woman looked puzzled; she felt Apocalypse Paradise was quite useless, its only unique trait being abundant with adorable girls.

"Don’t underestimate Apocalypse; I’m unsure how many Paradises exist, but Reincarnation Paradise’s contractors absolutely crush the others during early and mid-stages, undeniably, much like how we smashed the Holy Sanctuary Paradise and Apocalypse Paradise this time.

Yet, remember one thing; Apocalypse Paradise started with as many as 900 people, twice our number; a gentle punishment mechanism means more contractors.

If I’m not mistaken, the farther into late-stages, a broader gap in numbers will emerge, eventually turning into 3 on 1, or even 5 on 1."

Qing Ye grinned as though he didn’t mind such developments.

"Seems... somewhat reasonable."

"That’s why it’s fascinating; indeed, the Holy Sanctuary Paradise’s even more intriguing, where contractors actually worship deities, unfathomable..."

...

As Qing Ye discussed the Holy Sanctuary Paradise, at the mouth of a cave in the rainforest, a woman dressed in a golden robe was confronting Su Xiao.

"If memory serves, you’re Shenai from the Holy Sanctuary Paradise?"

Su Xiao sized up the woman blocking his path.

"Correct, do you remember this person?"

Shenai opened her hand, gathering a sort of golden energy, ultimately forming a visage.

"Did you come seeking vengeance on his behalf?"

Su Xiao recognized the face, it belonged to the old man he had captured alive.

"No, I came to repay a favor I owed him, so... please go to hell."

Shenai’s golden robe billowed despite no wind, her pupils seemed ablaze with golden flames.
