Chapter 42: The Family Mansion

In the dim building, Brother Shui sat there with an expressionless face. Because the light was too dark, he couldn't see his face clearly, but thinking about it, he didn't look good at this time.

After Brother Shui obtained the "Mirror of Origin", he knew that this was an opportunity of good fortune and misfortune, and it was also an alternative means of dissuading enemies. But now, Brother Shui had seen what the true holder of the original sin object was.

Brother Shui is able to hold the "Mirror of Origin" not only because he is blind, but also because he has not seen this concept at the level of his soul. Therefore, the negative effects of "Mirror of Origin" cannot be easily overcome.

It will affect him.

But now, Brother Shui saw that he was holding three original sin objects at the same time, and there was nothing unusual about the holder. It seemed that he was not affected by these three original sin objects.

"How did you do it?"

There was a bit of doubt and confusion in Brother Shui's tone. He held an original sin object, and he felt like he was on the verge of life and death at any time. The growth rate of his perception ability increased sharply. At the moment, the hunter opposite him actually held three original sin objects.

.

"If you tell me this method, I will give up 80% of all tasks that have been completed. There are 32 branch tasks in total, all targeting Twilight Asylum and Sun Camp. At that time, I will assist you free of charge until the progress of this world ends. During this period, I

All the income generated belongs to you, and you can promise this in any way except signing a contract."

Brother Shui is simply a side-quest maniac. He received more than 30 side-quests at the same time, which is not something ordinary contractors can do. This is like making a fortune in silence.

"If you don't sign the contract, how can I trust you?"

"After signing the contract, you can trust me, but I am not far from death."

Brother Shui's attitude is resolute. Even if he gives up the deal, he will never sign the contract. This is the ultimate way to restrain the 'Contract Master'.

"You misunderstood the contract."

"It's not that I misunderstood the contract. I used to have a friend who was not a friend. His name was Gray Gentleman. One time he dived deep into our native world of Death Paradise. I received a hunting mission and almost fell into his contract trap.

, at that time, he was 'full of praise' for your contract level."

Speaking of this, Brother Shui was a little frightened. He had experienced the contract trap of Gray Gentleman and almost fell into it. However, Bai Ye, who was "full of praise" by Gray Gentleman, must be more dangerous.

"The Gray Gentleman and I are mortal enemies. He just slandered me."

Su Xiao lit a cigarette as she spoke, looking as relaxed as an old friend chatting.

"I'd better believe it."

Brother Shui's attitude is firm. Cooperation is possible, but he will never sign a contract.

The current situation is actually easy to understand. Neither Su Xiao nor Brother Shui actually have good intentions, but they don't want to be hostile to each other. It's a shame. But the question is, when the situation comes to this, which side chooses to retreat?

Whichever side will suffer.

"The method of safely holding original sin objects is not a secret. I can tell you."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Brother Shui on the other side felt chilled, but he hesitated and made an attitude of listening attentively.

"You can think of the original sin object as a creditor, a creditor who demands life. Every time you use the original sin object, you will accumulate karma. It is like repeatedly borrowing money from this creditor. One day, this creditor will ask you for debt."

"This metaphor...is very appropriate."

Brother Shui nodded thoughtfully. Seeing this, Su Xiao continued:

"You only have one life. Since you are a creditor, you don't want to see bad debts."

After hearing what Su Xiao said, Brother Shui frowned deeply, feeling that it made sense but also felt that it was nonsense.

"You mean, let me find another original sin object?! Make the creditor become two?"

"No, I mean, let you think of ways to get more lives and more creditors? What a stupid idea. The original sin object can completely divide your lives equally."

"you……"

Brother Shui was a little off guard, but he immediately calmed down and said, "Sorry, I lost my temper."

"You have been touched by the original sin object, and you still want to escape? Find a way to make your cause and effect bigger, so big that the original sin object will dislike you."

"Oh~?"

Brother Shui's eyes widened a little. He could feel that these words were useful information, useful information that could save lives.

"Thank you."

Brother Shui took out a clear blue crystal and threw it towards Su Xiao. Su Xiao raised his hand and took it.

[Tip: You get the awakening stone.]

[Awakening Stone (Exclusive Gem for Destruction): It can deeply improve the ability of the Destruction System. 】



"When I was at level 4 or 5, I forgot the details. Anyway, I bought it in the trading market. To be precise, it was just a tack. It's useless to other people."

After Brother Shui finished speaking, he stood up and left. The next moment, an oval-shaped amber the size of a pigeon egg was thrown. Located in the center of the amber, there was a section of black energy as thick as a hair. It was very small, but it gave a particularly strong feeling.

"This is?"

Brother Shui held the amber between his fingers and felt the hair-thick material inside, which gave him a vague sense of familiarity.

"This is a tiny amount of original sin. When the magic mirror wants to swallow you one day, throw this thing to it, and it will suspend your death and test whether you have more original sins. It will be no problem to save your life for the time being."

The trace amount of original sin that Su Xiao threw out was that after he obtained the [buds of original sin], he cut off a small section of it, and the remaining [buds of original sin] were fed to the "bloodthirsty armor".

"Aren't you going to tell me some information about the leader of the abyss, Silvis?"

After hearing Su Xiao's words, Brother Shui stood up and walked towards the darkness inside the building. When he was half submerged in the darkness, he said: "I'm sorry, I don't have the habit of betraying my collaborators, even if he and I are no longer together.

Then there’s the partnership.”

After leaving these words, after a few sounds of the blind stick hitting the ground, the darkness became silent.

Looking at the darkness ahead, Su Xiao was in a good mood. He didn't get the answer he wanted, but he got the result he wanted. If Brother Shui revealed the information about the leader of the abyss, Silvis, in the subsequent developments,

If Brother Shui doesn't leave, Su Xiao will definitely try his best to get rid of this person.

The other party could betray the intelligence of the leader of the abyss, Silvis, so why couldn't he betray himself later? Su Xiao has always been very self-aware. He never thought that he was so special. He could make others' IQs drop drastically with just a few words, and they would wait desperately.

The current situation is that although Brother Shui has chosen to terminate his cooperation with the leader of the abyss, Silvis, he is not planning to stab him in the back. This also means that if Su Xiao cooperates with the other party in the future, even if the two parties disagree due to opinions or interests.

No matter how consistent they are, if they part ways, they won't be stabbed in the back by the other party.

Su Xiao looked around at the furnishings of the temporary base camp. The furniture was old and rotten, the walls were peeling off and moldy, and there were many abandoned bird's nests on the chandeliers above. This place needed to be repaired by someone before it could be used as a temporary base camp.

Before coming, Su Xiao had contacted a small local company that was good at this through the connections at the Gold Bank. They promised that as long as the money was in place, the place would definitely become luxurious before noon.

Just as Su Xiao was about to take out the contact device, a sense of crisis suddenly came from above, and the crystal layer clung to his body surface.

Boom!!

The dark gravity beam fell and hit the temporary base camp vertically, blasting the three-story building. The surrounding courtyards turned into pits and the walls were shattered in all directions.

Among the splashing building debris, Su Xiao, who was clinging to the crystal layer, was flying upside down. With a snap, he grabbed the spire of the steel building with one hand. Amidst the creaking and twisting sound of the metal, he stabilized his body.

With a bang, the crystal layer on Su Xiao's body shattered. He stood on the roof half a kilometer away from the temporary base camp. At this moment, the temporary base camp had turned into a huge pit.

Su Xiao looked at the dark clouds above. There was no need to think about this attack. It was most likely the work of the Dark God Cult.

"roar."

The roar of the dragon came, and the Storm Flame Dragon Dis landed on the roof. Su Xiao jumped on the dragon's back and said to Bubu: "Lock the location of the Dark God's headquarters and provide me with real-time coordinates."

"Woof!"

Bu Bu Wang blended into the environment. Seeing this, Su Xiao controlled the Storm Flame Dragon to fly up.

At the same time, on the top of the giant steel tower a few kilometers away, several figures in black robes were looking at the huge pit in the distance. One of the dark believers asked: "Master Priest, will we anger you if we do this?"

That lunatic."

In the eyes of this dark believer, the director of the Dusk Lunatic Asylum is a lunatic. Normal people would not provoke Black Rose, the King of Nightmares, the God of Glow, the King of Sand and others.

"It doesn't matter if you anger him, this is Ghost City, it's our territory."

The black-robed priest, Haodes, spoke up. As one of the main force who went to the lunatic asylum to rob the prison, after returning to Ghost City this time, his status within the cult has increased, and it is possible to become a bishop.

There is a strict hierarchy within the Dark God Religion. The leader of the abyss, Silvis, is naturally the supreme leader. Below him are the bishops and elders. Below that are the black-robed officiant, the gray-robed officiant, and below him are the priests. Pious

Believers, formal believers, new believers.

Bishops and elders seem to be of the same level, but the gap in real power between the two is not small. Bishops have both strength and ability, plus insidiousness, cunning, and cruelty to reach this position, while elders have strength + qualifications.

Lao, if you remain the black-robed officiant for decades, you can be promoted to elder.

Below are the black-robed officiant and gray-robed officiant. A black-robed officiant is enough to put a city in the alliance into a state of panic. The gray-robed officiant is less of a threat. At least he cannot summon abyssal creatures, but he can also summon them.

The strange monsters from the outside world are very troublesome.

The priests at the lower level are well-known within the Dark God Religion, but to put it bluntly, they are actually high-ranking mazi. The devout people at the lower level are considered ordinary members of the Dark God Religion.

When they reach the echelon of formal believers, they are cannon fodder for the devout and the priests. New believers who have a lower status than formal believers are even worse. They are completely like guinea pigs. The more intuitive ranking is:

New believer (guinea pig) → Formal believer (cannon fodder) → Pious (high-level cannon fodder) → Priest (rare cannon fodder) → Gray-robed officiant (not cannon fodder, but will take the blame) → Black-robed officiant (cancer-level character) → Bishop

/Elder (a cancerous figure that causes headaches for both the Alliance and the Northern Empire) → Abyss leader Silvis.

The black-robed priest, Haodes, looked at the huge pit in the distance. After he learned that the director of the Twilight Lunatic Asylum was coming, he immediately decided to give the enemy a severe blow before everyone else, while the credit for rescuing Hatred had not faded away.

In the past, he had made another great contribution and jumped to the position of bishop. As for the consequences, he didn't care about the consequences. Moreover, even if the opponent was an exterminator, he was just an exterminator who had just arrived in Ghost City. Even if he was powerful, it would be difficult to take action immediately.

In fact, the black-robed priest Haodes studied the way Su Xiao went to the Holy Orchid Kingdom, the desert country, and found that Su Xiao was not reckless, especially when he had just arrived in Ghost City, and it was even less likely that he would act recklessly.

The black-robed priest Haodes is certainly not out of his wits. He has made plans to fight Su Xiao. As long as Su Xiao attacks here, he will immediately escape under the cover of his cannon fodder.

After waiting for a moment, the chief priest, Haude, found that there was no movement in the distance. This made him wonder, could it be that the lunatic director of the asylum had insisted on not overpowering local snakes and temporarily retreated? Thinking of this, Haude

Si couldn't help but feel excited. His position as bishop was almost certain.

boom!

A black and blue afterimage shot straight into the sky. It was Diss with black and blue dragon feathers all over his body. It flew almost vertically upward until it broke through the clouds.

Seeing this terrifying flying speed, the black-robed priest Haodes was really shocked, but he felt a lot more at ease when he realized that it was not coming towards him.

At this time, on the top of the clouds, Su Xiao stood on the back of the dragon. A glass column as long as an arm appeared in his hand. He crushed it with one hand and exploded, causing the liquid Apollo inside to splash out.

Su Xiao held his hands empty, and liquid Apollo gathered in his hands. He used the soul ability and soul crystal gun to release soul energy and used it to wrap the liquid Apollo. He stretched his hands to both sides, and a

The "Sun Soul Crystal Spear" appeared. It was only over one meter long at first. When it was perfected to nearly four meters, Su Xiao held it in his hand.

Click!

Angry thunder surges, and Su Xiao often draws thunder in the dragon knight state. Now he is fighting in this state. Even if he does not actively draw the boundary thunder, there will be thunder and lightning gathering in the sky. This is a constant characteristic of the dragon knight state.

An ancient ring is worn on the index finger of Su Xiao's right hand. This ring is called [Ancient Killing Ring] and its core abilities are:

"Equipment Effect 2: The Power of Hills (Passive·Unique). When attacking the enemy from a distance, the power of Hills' soul will be triggered, and the long-range attack will be blessed (blessing bullets, arrows, etc.)."



After the BuBoWang on the ground locked the position, he sent the coordinates of the Dark Cathedral, the headquarters of the Dark God Religion, to the team channel. Seeing these coordinates, the Bloody Shadow was built above Su Xiao, and the Soul Bow immediately appeared in the hands of the Bloody Shadow.

Su Xiao threw up the "Sun Soul Crystal Gun" in his hand. The tall and bloody figure used this "Sun Soul Crystal Gun" as an arrow, aiming diagonally downward at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters to attack the designated biological target. Su Xiao

He didn't have much confidence, but he was very confident when he hit a majestic building.

Kakaka~

The soul bow was pulled until it clicked. When the power of the blood shadow was fully charged, Su Xiao controlled it to loosen the bowstring.

boom!

The bowstring vibrated, and the clouds within a hundred meters were instantly dispersed by the blast. The "Solar Soul Crystal Spear" turned into a flame afterimage and hit the dark cathedral diagonally below.

Boom!!!

The dark cathedral was instantly engulfed by the sun's flames, and the surrounding land surged up like water waves. The buildings above were reduced to pieces. Given the vastness of Ghost City, half of Ghost City felt the vibration and the terrifying roar.

When everything calmed down, although the Dark Cathedral was still there, the abyss-breeding statue on top began to tilt, and then fell to the ground. The hundred-meter-high Dark Cathedral had fine cracks on its outer wall. When viewed from above,

Everything within a radius of 1.5 kilometers was razed to the ground. This also means that most of the residences of the middle and lower-class members of the Dark God's Religion were destroyed. Some of the middle- and lower-class members of the Dark God's Religion were directly killed by the explosion.

Kakaka~!

The soul bow was fully drawn again, Su Xiao controlled the blood ghost to loosen the bow string, and fired another "Solar Soul Crystal Gun" towards the dark cathedral.

Black mist poured out from each window of the dark cathedral, turned into a big hand, and grabbed the incoming "Solar Soul Crystal Gun", and another loud noise spread.

But a few seconds later, there was another muffled sound in the sky, and the third "Sun Soul Crystal Gun" struck. The black mist's big hand regrouped and faced the "Sun Soul Crystal Gun".

Above the clouds, after shooting a few more arrows, Su Xiao took off the assassination ring on his index finger. His mood gradually changed from cloudy to sunny after being unexpectedly attacked. He gave mental instructions to let the Storm Flame Dragon fly to the east side of Ghost City.

Find a building over there suitable as a base camp and rent it temporarily.

At this moment, on the steel tower, the chief priest Howdes was looking up at the flying storm dragon. When he turned his gaze and looked at the dark cathedral with black mist in the distance, he felt dizzy in his mind.

The elders and bishops inside knew that it was he who provoked the extermination method first, which led to the other party taking revenge. Those old guys must have skinned him.

"Today's events must not be spread to outsiders."

The chief priest, Haodes, spoke in a cold voice. Upon hearing this, a dozen of the surrounding believers lowered their heads, saying that they would not spread the word.

"Forget it, I don't trust you, you should just shut up forever."

Black flying insects flew out from the sleeves and collar of the officiant Howdes. These flying insects looked a bit like gadflies, but their mouths were round and strange with multiple layers of sharp teeth. The tail at the end was like a...

Like tiny leeches, it can burrow into flesh and blood, causing intense and terrifying pain.

The dozen or so believers in the surrounding area could not even let out a scream, let alone escape, before they were enveloped by black flying insects, and in a blink of an eye, they were eaten away until not even the dregs were left.



Ghost City, east of the city.

Su Xiao looked at the three-story apartment in front of her. She felt that this place was very good. There were enough rooms to live in, and there was a public area on the first floor. Finally, the rental fee here was cheap. This area belonged to the slums in Ghost City, and it was so chaotic.

The local civilians cannot live a normal life.

Walking into the first floor of the apartment, Su Xiao found that the place was quite clean. He sat on the single sofa and checked the countdown of the notarization expansion. There were still a few minutes left, and the notarization expansion was about to take place. He didn't know when the strong men would compete for hegemony.

In what mode it is notarized.

The attack just now, Su Xiao can be sure, was not the decision of the senior leaders of the Dark God Religion, but the action of a middle-level and high-level executive who was eager for quick success. The reason is that this is Ghost City, and the headquarters of the Dark God Religion stands there. If they attack each other's base camps,

, there is a loss of blood over there, as long as there are no casualties on Su Xiao's side, just spend some money to change the building.

[Tip: Extended notarization officially begins.]

[Reminder: For this notarization, Void Tree is the notarizing neutral party, and Samsara Paradise is the notarizing and adjudicating party.]

[Notarization scope: the entire Ghost City.]

[Notarized forces: Alliance camp, Dark camp, Yug family, Merchant alliance, Ghost clan.]

[The above five forces are all officially qualified to send teams into dangerous areas, family mansions and dangerous areas, ancestral underground palaces. 】

[Warning: You and the leader of the abyss, Silvis, have exceeded the critical points of the above two dangerous areas due to their individual combat power. If you or the leader of the abyss, Silvis, enter the above two areas, these two areas will result.

The area explodes and overflows, resulting in collapse.】

[It has been notarized that you and the leader of the abyss, Silvis, are both prohibited from entering the "Family Mansion" and the "Ancestral Underground Palace", but you and the leader of the abyss, Silvis, will obtain the functions and obligations of camp leaders. ]

[Faction leader function: You can let your designated team members obtain temporary Void Tree marks, so that they can obtain kill rewards in the "Family Mansion" and "Ancestral Underground Palace", or trigger the "Family Mansion"

Special missions in the "Mansion" and "Ancestral Underground Palace".]

[Faction leader obligation: Except for the teams designated by the alliance camp, dark camp, Yug family, business alliance, and ghost camp, you will prohibit any outsiders from entering the "family mansion" and "ancestral underground palace". Once discovered, you

You can hunt it in a positional manner until it is killed, and during this period, you can make it an "enemy of the alliance" and be hostile to all units in the alliance camp.]

[Tip: Only you and the leader of the abyss, Silvis, have the function of camp leaders. The other three camps (Yog family, merchant alliance, ghost clan) cannot designate candidates to form a team. The Void Tree will be in these three camps.

Select candidates with suitable combat capabilities and form a team of 3 to 5 people.]

[Tip: Five-party teams, each team has 1 to 5 people, and the upper limit of combat power is limited.]

[This battle has been re-notarized into three stages.]

Stage 1: The five-party team enters the "Family Mansion", searches for the ancestral secret treasure, and obtains the key to the underground palace.

Tip: Whichever team among the five parties obtains the key to the underground palace, that team will receive a constant material reward, or 2 ounces of "Abyss Sediment".

Tip: If all members of a certain team die in the "Family Mansion", this team will be eliminated and will not have the right to participate in subsequent battles.

Phase 2: The remaining team uses the underground palace key to enter the "Ancestral Underground Palace" beneath the "Family Mansion".

Tip: There are more ancestor secret treasures in the "Ancestral Underground Palace", but they are also more dangerous.

The third stage: The team in the "Ancestral Underground Palace" needs to find and compete for the "Ancient Crest", and finally bring it out of the "Ancestral Underground Palace". The camp that obtains the "Ancient Crest" will be the winner of this battle.

[Tips (Tree of the Void): The areas "Family Mansion" and "Ancestral Underground Palace" where this battle is taking place are extremely rare areas. After the battle is completed, the two areas will be stripped away from this world by the Void Tree.

.]

[Tip (Tree of the Void): The total value brought by this battle will be determined, and the final material reward will be given based on this value.]

[Tip (Tree of the Void): The winner of this battle will receive the original fragment × 1.]

[The following members are the winners of this battle.]

1.Dark Son·Black A.

2. Alyssa (boiling red).

3. Sun Apostle.

[You can choose one of the above devourers as the core member of your team. Once selected, it cannot be changed. 】



Su Xiao directly chose Feihong, which was something she didn't have to think about.

As the Devourer Battle continues, Su Xiao discovers that An Yang, who has been looking for someone to fight, is the first to disappear. Black A and Boiling Red, who have been fighting each other, ignore Crystal Princess and Sun Apostle at all, while Crystal Princess and Sun Apostle

, one is responsible for the beauty, and the other is the old man who has shrunk for thousands of years.

Now the expanded battle for the Devourer has taken a different form. The first thing is to understand the "Family Mansion" and the "Ancestral Underground Palace".

These two places originally belonged to the Yug family, one of the five factions this time. This family is very old. Before the alliance and the Northern Empire were established, it was the era of this family. There were a lot of warring kingdoms, and their wealth and resources were basically exhausted.

Earned by this family.

Suddenly one day, the Yug family declined. First, the members of the family withered away, and then it was as if the bloodline was cursed. The bloodline passed down from generation to generation was almost cut off. It was rare for a clan leader to live past the age of 40. In the end, the remaining members of the family fled.

their "family mansion".

It was at that time that the secret of the Yug family's "family mansion" was discovered by outsiders. That mansion had become a dark, strange and terrifying place. In contrast, there was something called the "ancestral secret treasure" there.

The artifact is something that all the major forces in Ghost City desire, especially the Dark Cult.

But before all the forces could investigate, the "family mansion" disappeared into the fog, leaving only a huge dark pit. And now, the "family mansion" in the ancestral land of the Yog family will disappear with the fog.

appears again.

To put it bluntly, the "family mansion" will be dragged back from a foreign land by the Void Tree. However, the weird environment here is too special, it is dangerous but there are many treasures.

The ancestral secret treasure inside is actually useless to Black A, Alyssa, and the other chosen ones. Not only is it useless, if they dare to use it without permission, it will even cost them their lives, but it is useless to Su Xiao and the leader of the abyss, Sil.

Weiss, these ancestral secret treasures are very useful, in fact, they are rare treasures.

In contrast, the resources provided by Su Xiao and the leader of the abyss, Silvis, are rare treasures for the participants, and they are also what they need most at this stage.

Su Xiao and the leader of the abyss, Silvis, cannot enter the "Family Mansion" and "Ancestral Underground Palace". They are both too powerful. If they choose to enter either of these two areas, they will cause the energy there to go berserk.

The collapse is not because we can't get in, but because we don't want this place with a large number of secret treasures to collapse. It would be a pity.

Therefore, Su Xiao and the leader of the abyss, Silvis, need Alyssa and Black A to enter the "Family Mansion" and "Ancestral Underground Palace" on their behalf. Of course, they do not let Black A and Alyssa Bai go.

The amount of ancestral secret treasures obtained will result in corresponding rewards.

If the Yog family, the merchant alliance, and the ghost clan do not abide by the rules, they will be beaten by the alliance camp and the dark camp. Therefore, these three parties will also select outstanding young people or middle-aged people to participate in the war. If these three parties

The old guys want to go in and torture, Su Xiao and the leader of the abyss, Silvis, will let them know who is the one who is crushed by strength.

It is now recognized by the outside world that the betrayer is the strongest in the world, followed by Su Xiao and the leader of the abyss, Silvis. It is not clear who is stronger between the two.

It seems that there is a fair competition among the five parties including Su Xiao, Abyss Leader Silvis, Yug Family, Merchant Alliance, and Ghost Clan. But if you think about it carefully, the gap between the parties is very big. Abyss Leader Silvis can give Black A

Providing special abyss energy, Su Xiao's other identity is the Holy Flame Pharmacist. Of course, he will customize a long list of permanent enhancement potions for Alyssa. In addition, when she is in danger, the healing potions can be drank as water.

This also means that in the five-party team, Black A and Alyssa are simply two bosses, and you want to plot against them outside the underground palace to win? This is simply a trick, because behind these two bosses,

There are also two ultimate big bosses.
