Chapter 37: Backstab

The main battlefield, on the west side, is located on a dark Gobi desert near the Dark Salt Lake. This place looks desolate and dark, but in fact there is something else underground, an underground city with a population of hundreds of thousands.

At this moment, in a side street underground, a figure in black robe stopped, as if to confirm that no one was following her, she knocked on an iron door.

With a swipe, the probe of the iron door was opened. In the darkness inside, there was a pair of eyes of the beast. After watching for a moment, the beast inside closed the probe with a bang and opened the iron door.

The man in black robe followed the orcs into the dark house, passing through a corridor. There were many doors on both sides of the corridor. In some of the open doors, they were either identifying stolen goods or doing something pleasant. They passed by a fishy smell

Behind the smell of the slaughterhouse, the orc in work clothes in front stopped in front of an iron door, clenched his sandbag-sized fists, and knocked on the door.

With a swipe, the iron door's opening was opened, and a sea-clan banshee watched inside.

"Open the door."

The orc spoke with a hint of impatience, and the Sea Tribe banshee inside muttered, This is a dungeon, a lawless place, and it is not surprising that the Sea Tribe and the Orc Tribe cooperate.

After opening the door, the Sea Tribe Banshee arranged her hair and said: "The person died and no useful information was obtained. Tell Lord Ergoin that I tried my best."

"I didn't have any hope at first. You should dress more tightly and send this person to the manor in Late Winter City."

The orc picked up the wrapped body and spoke. Hearing his words, the Sea Tribe Banshee looked surprised and asked: "To the manor? What a good job, why don't you go."

"Heh~, guess who you are going to see."

Hearing this, the Sea Tribe Banshee immediately felt uneasy. Just as she was about to shirk away, the orcs strode away with the body already carried on their shoulders.

Ten minutes later, the faint light of the teleportation array lit up in the warehouse. The Sea Clan Banshee with her hood lowered walked out of the warehouse and led the man in black robe towards the castle ahead. Within a few dozen meters of approaching the castle, the Sea Clan Banshee

She felt as if a pair of magic eagle eyes were staring at her, that cold and sharp gaze, like invisible sharp needles piercing her soul.

Boom, boom, boom.

There was a knock on the door, and the door creaked open. The Sea Tribe Banshee was about to speak, but she swallowed it back. The tall figure more than 3 meters high inside the door, chewing something in her mouth, with her eyes lowered, was saying...

Those eyes, which were vaguely glowing with red light, lowered their eyelids and looked at him, as if he was thinking whether the coming person would bring danger. If so, he would kill him on the spot with an axe.

"I'm from the slaughterhouse, and I'm sending a customer here."

The Sea Tribe Banshee spoke in a deep voice. After hearing this, Amu was still chewing something inside the room. She did not speak and had no intention of letting anyone in. At this moment, the Sea Tribe Banshee suddenly remembered that she had forgotten it due to nervousness.

For important matters, show your seal quickly.

Eminem's chewing movement paused for a moment, and then she turned to get out of the way. The Sea Tribe Banshee at the door turned her head and looked at the black-robed man aside, meaning that she could only be sent here.

After the man in black robe walked into the first floor of the castle, he immediately felt a lot warmer. Under Eminem's guidance, he arrived at the inner hall on the second floor. Although the man in black robe sat down on the single sofa, he did not take off his hood.

"Don't be so formal, we are all our own people."

Su Xiao poured the visitor a cup of tea. The visitor raised his hand as if to take off his hood, clenched his slender fingers into a fist, and said with gritted teeth: "Who and you are... our own people."

Crow Girl stared at Su Xiao, she could be said to be filled with hatred from the inside out until her teeth itched.

"Back when you hunted me down many times, you were always 'high-handed'. You also sponsored a lot of black maple trees from the Arcane Eternal Star for free, and you helped me bring all three original sin objects to the Arcane Eternal Star. This

Not one of our own?"

"You... are talking nonsense!"

Crow Girl was a little excited.

"Oh? So, you have been working seriously for Arcane Eternal Star?"

"certainly."

Crow Girl answered very frankly.

"Then I sincerely hope that there are more serious people like you in Arcane Eternal Star."

"you……"

Crow Girl was about to take action when she suddenly thought that she couldn't beat the guy opposite her. She chose not to suffer the loss. She calmed down and breathed a long sigh of relief before asking: "What do you want from me? I will never keep secrets from you in the future."

Meet."

Su Xiao took out a metal box from under the table that was covered with sealing techniques. The uneven metal box looked like a silver metal box that had been burned by flames, which made the crow girl subconsciously feel bad. However, considering that Su Xiao already held three original sins,

After finding the object, she felt a little relieved. How unlucky was she to encounter the fourth original sin object? Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"This is the original sin object, you just need to take it back."

After Su Xiao finished speaking, he took out a small wooden box, placed it on the table, and continued: "After finishing this, you can come and take away this contract."

Crow Girl is here today because she is afraid of the constraints of the contract. As long as she gets this contract, she will not be afraid of Su Xiao at all.

"You're dreaming!"

The crow girl suddenly attacked Su Xiao, filling the room with energy like black gravel.

After a while.

Bang!

An afterimage crashed through the window and blasted into the forest in the rear courtyard at high speed. As soon as it landed, it turned into an elegant black shadow and disappeared. But the next second, a black smoke arrow struck, and more

Faster than her.

After catching a glimpse of the black smoke arrow from the corner of her eye, the crow girl's heart froze. She had been educated by this shameless demonic ability.

A large amount of black gravel-like energy turned into sharp blades around the crow girl, and all of them attacked the black smoke arrows. Almost at the same time, the black smoke arrows turned into demons, and sharp blades penetrated from everywhere on her body.

But as the black mist surged, all the breaches were restored to their original appearance.

Seeing this, Crow Girl snorted lightly, and her eyes turned completely black. The orc warriors who were surrounding and killing them all thought that Crow Girl was about to fight for her life, when a crystal appeared in her hand and she threw it to the ground.

With a bang, dust particles flew everywhere in the space. When these dust particles dissipated, Crow Girl had disappeared. At the same time, in the inner hall of the castle, Su Xiao picked up the wooden box in the secret compartment under the table and opened it.

It was found that it was empty, and the contract parchment originally contained inside had been stolen by the crow girl.

This is a real contract, not a counterfeit. More importantly, Crow Girl managed to escape this time without touching the original sin object. It can be said that this is the biggest victory that Crow Girl has won in the previous battles between the two sides.

A thorough one.

Su Xiao looked at the silver metal seal on the table. What was inside was not the "Golden Holy Grail" at all, but two other original sin objects. To be more precise, the priest failed to peel off the "Golden Holy Grail" this time.

It's not that it can't be stripped off by force, but as a price, all the priest's divine blood will be plundered into the "Golden Holy Grail" during the stripping process. This original sin object is very special, or in other words, the original sin object itself will not cause any harm to the holder.

Damage at any level.

It's not like the "Devil's Jar" that swallows the holders of all generations, nor is it like the "Necronomicon". As long as you read the knowledge above, your heart will become more and more crazy, and your body will follow the inner changes.

The madness keeps getting distorted.

The function of the "Golden Holy Grail" is that as long as the holder kills a living being, divine blood will gush out from it based on the strength of the creature killed. Moreover, it is extremely pure divine blood. This is more like an alternative sacrifice.

There is no danger whether you touch the "Golden Holy Grail" directly or hold it for a long time. The real risk comes from the outside world, that is, every time you drink the divine blood that overflows from the "Golden Holy Grail", the owner's

Mysterious luck will be improved a bit.

What is mysterious luck? In the early stage, it is good, and you are prone to encounter wandering spirits and undead. When the mysterious luck reaches a certain level, you start to easily encounter evil spirits, strange objects, etc.

If your mysterious luck reaches its peak, you may stumble when you go out in the morning and fall into a gap in space. Then you accidentally fall into the gap between floating. When you turn around and look, hey~, isn’t that the candle girl? It seems to be floating towards me~

That's right, once you use the "Golden Holy Grail", you will simply open the hell difficulty on your own. As you continue to use the "Golden Holy Grail", your own mysterious destiny will become stronger, and the strange beings you encounter will become stronger.

In order to deal with these weird beings, one can only use the "Golden Holy Grail" more frequently and drink the divine blood in it to increase strength. However, the more this happens, the stronger the mysterious destiny becomes, and the weird beings encountered become more powerful, creating a continuous vicious cycle, drinking poison to quench thirst.

Until the end, I mistakenly entered the gap between drifting and looked at the huge wild growth in front of me. This was an almost irresistible existence.

There was an old man who somehow managed to survive this stage. He saw the Madness of the Candle Girl, Mao Sheng, and the Lord of the Old Ones all over the place. Just when this old man thought that this was as bad as it could get, he took a beating.

After sneezing, I opened my eyes again and found a black spot in front of me. The black spot suddenly grew larger and then disappeared.

When this old man initially adapted to the darkness, he discovered that in the darkness around him, there were countless abyssal creatures with immortal characteristics floating around him. He was sucked into it by the abyss passage that appeared briefly by chance, and fell into the abyss.

Very deep.

Just this morning, Su Xiao discovered one thing. The caster did not know what price he paid to have the three original sin objects come back. When he opened his eyes, the Necronomicon was floating above, and the Soul Crown was floating above.

On the bedside table, the Netherworld Bone Ring was on the table, while Xian Lulu was squatting on the chandelier with tears in her eyes. Judging from the trembling cat paws, she had been squatting on it for at least half the night.

Su Xiao was not surprised that these original sin objects came back. In the final analysis, he is the holder of these original sin objects. These original sin objects are willing to be given away by him, mainly because he cannot swallow up resources. Of course, he is willing to be sent out occasionally.

, both parties have always disliked each other.

Su Xiao has always kept records of the original sin objects he has seen and held, and summarized their characteristics.

Su Xiao wrote down the characteristics of the "Golden Holy Grail" on the "Original Sin Object Note" and put it away.

Now it contains the characteristics of a total of six original sin items: "Jar of the Abyss", "Book of the Dead", "Crown of Souls", "Netherworld Bone Ring", "Collector", and "Golden Holy Grail".

There shouldn't be any more included in the follow-up, at least that's what Su Xiao hopes. After all, even now, he still feels palpitations when he sees new original sin objects.

At the same time, on the edge of the main battlefield, there was a shallow puddle with blood stains floating on the water. A figure wearing a black tights and her hair tied into a long ponytail was lying in the puddle. Her vision continued to narrow and blur.

, just then, she heard rapid footsteps approaching.

"She's here."

Hearing the therapist's rich smoky voice, Crow Girl knew that this plan was successful. Soon, a group of spellcasters arrived and placed her on the first aid mat. A green shimmer appeared in the therapist's hands, floating around Crow Girl.

Nearby, Crow Girl pushed her away. She asked with blurred vision: "Where are the old woman Sephilia and the old man Guyana?"

"Right before your eyes."

The original smile on Sefilia's face disappeared. When she heard her voice, the crow girl took a deep breath, forced her vitality to become more active, and her vision returned to clearness. She looked at Sefilia and said: "The mark is attached to

His sword is sheathed, and it depends on you whether he can succeed or not."

When Crow Girl met with Su Xiao this time, she did not hide the spell casters. Instead, after receiving a secret contact, she went to Sefilia and Dean Gu Ya to explain the situation to them.

"Well done, you have wasted Master Hun's trust in you."

Sephilia spoke seriously. After hearing this, the crow girl was a little moved, as if she was moved by Sephiria, but she hesitated to speak. In addition, she looked like she was about to die, which made everyone present moved.

.

"Whatever you want to say, just say it."

Sefilia patted Crow Girl on the shoulder, which made Crow Girl even more 'touched'. She said weakly: "Even if I say anything, can you all forgive me?"

"Of course, as long as you are not a traitor."

Hearing this, Crow Girl whispered: "Of course I am not a traitor, but the two original sin objects were given to me after I was beaten half to death by the destruction method, and I didn't..."

"Shut up, there is no original sin object at all. There has never been an original sin object entangled with us. Never...never..."

Sefilia spoke word by word, and it could be seen that the entanglement with the original sin object had been resolved. As for the heartbreaking price paid, only she and Dean Gu Ya knew. In short, this return to Arcana

After the Eternal Star, you have to sell some black maple trees to other forces.



Late Winter City, in the old castle of the lord's manor.

Su Xiao sat on the seat in front of the window and looked at the snowy scene outside the window. Until now, he had not figured out one thing, which was where the crow girl set the coordinates or mark. The reason why he thought of this

Point, because it's all in the plan.

When Su Xiao failed to peel off the original sin object from the priest, Su Xiao still invited the crow girl to get the original sin object, which in itself represents many things, whether it was the crow girl who temporarily surrendered and came here, the talk collapsed, and then she took the opportunity to steal the original sin object.

Taking away the contract scroll and escaping after being seriously injured were all part of the plan. On the contrary, if Crow Girl completely surrendered today, Su Xiao's plan would not go ahead.

But who is that? He is the direct disciple of Xiao, one of the strongest hunters. Crow Girl will be defeated or even killed, but there is no way she will give in.

Under such circumstances, if the other party still sacrifices his life to go to the appointment, it can only be because he has a strong purpose. For example, constructing coordinates or marks on Su Xiao's body or the items he has been wearing. As an assassin, Crow Girl is very good at this.

In addition, with the support of spellcasters who are not short of money, it will be even easier.

The purpose of this is that once Su Xiao's real-time location is known, it will be much easier to ambush him, at least in Su Xiao's view. He would do the same thing if he were a spell caster.

There is a saying that goes well, superb hunters often appear as prey. Those spell casters want to kill Su Xiao, and Su Xiao also wants to kill a powerful spell caster. When is the enemy most careless?

When victory is within their grasp, when they think they have surrounded the group of exterminators, in fact the hunt has just begun.

But there is a question right now, which is where are the coordinates or marks left by Crow Girl? Su Xiao checked the clothes, scabbard, etc., and sensed his body surface, but found no signs, which made him a little suspicious.

If the crow girl came to keep the appointment, she just wanted to take away the contract scroll.

Then I thought about it and it was wrong. If Sephilia and Dean Gu Ya were not informed about this matter, then with the current injury of Crow Girl, she should be dead. There is no kill prompt at the moment, which means that Crow Girl got it.

Effective and powerful treatment was obviously planned over there, and Crow Girl was waiting near the teleportation end point of the space prop.

Su Xiao continued to check the objects he carried with him, but whether it was energy fluctuations or soul energy sensing, everything was the same as before, without any difference. When he found this, he was going to find the witch Lilia. Although the other party's divination was extremely

It may also be in the calculations of spellcasters, but it is worth a try.

"Bai Ye, what are you busy with there?"

Xianlulu floated up and stretched.

"What's that on your scabbard? New decoration? I didn't see it yesterday. It was just printed today. It's too inconspicuous."

"..."

Su Xiao doubtfully picked up the Dragon-Slaying Flash in its sheath, carefully observed and sensed it, and finally put on a microscope, but still found nothing.

After a while, Su Xiao, Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, Ji La, and Xian Lulu sat around the table. On the table was the Dragon Slaying Flash. Bu Bu Wang looked carefully, but saw nothing.

"Although it's not obvious, you didn't see this mark?"

Xian Lulu patted the mark on the scabbard with her meow paw, Su Xiao, Bu Bu Wang, Amu, Baha, Jila, you look at me, I look at you, and see the confusion and confusion in each other's eyes.

.

Why Xian Lulu can see this mark is something Su Xiao can't figure out. Could it be that Xian Lulu has this kind of ability? You can check Xian Lulu's information. Except for auxiliary skills, there is no detection of marks.

Su Xiao found several guards and asked them to try to see the mark on the scabbard, but none of them could see it. He also found the young lord Guerwei, who also couldn't see it. The city lord Fenris observed it for a long time and finally found it.

Shaked his head.

Just when Su Xiao, Bu Buwang, and Baha were all frowning, the head maid said softly: "Is it a ring-shaped mark?"

Hearing this, Su Xiao suddenly thought of the reason. The standard for whether this mark can be seen is quite clever. If you guessed correctly, this should be the mark of the causal system. It ignores all exploration and perception and can only be seen by the naked eye.

A clearer standard is that only those whose strength is weaker than a certain level can see this mark.

In addition, this mark is not easy to detect. The servants around Su Xiao who can see this mark will not notice it at all. Even if they notice it, they will not mention it. The reason is that they have not carefully observed the [Demon Sealing] Knife before.

Sheath, such small changes at the moment may be almost ignored by ordinary people.

The most terrible thing is that Su Xiao is the lord. Even though he is usually kind to these servants, they all respect and fear Su Xiao in their hearts. Even if they notice the subtle changes in the scabbard, they will never take the initiative to mention it.

When she learned that it was because her fighting power was too weak that she could see this mark, Xian Lulu was stunned. She, who had been so proud just now, suddenly couldn't be happy anymore. She looked at Bubu Wang and said decisively: "Single

pick!"

"Woof?"

Boo Boo has a confused look on his face.

After a while, Xian Lulu, with tears in her eyes, sat in the corner, with the head maid comforting her softly.

If it is determined that the problem is with the Demon Sealing Scabbard, things will be easier to handle. In fact, it doesn't matter even if it is not sure. Su Xiao's plan is that if he cannot be sure whether there is a mark or not, he will just wear ordinary clothes when going out recently and put other things into the storage space.

I don’t believe that the Arcane Eternal Star can track things put into the storage space.

[Tip: Your orc army has captured White Hoof Harbor.]

[Because you received the reward for capturing White Hoof Port, by capturing White Hoof Port this time, you will gain a total of 12940 reputation points. 】



Seeing this reminder, Su Xiao was in a good mood. At the risk of Urgoin's rebellious bone growth accelerating, he once again delegated power to Urgoin. Now it seems to be correct. That guy really went to attack White Hoof Port.

In the end, they were really defeated, but as a price, their own Orc Legion was reduced from 12 to 8. It can be seen that Ergoin and the Sea Tribe Commander Penero fought a fierce and bloody battle in White Hoof Port.

.

Su Xiao came to the map. After taking down the White Hoof Port, heading to the west was the "Ancestral Lighthouse" of the Sea Clan, and heading to the north was the "Floating Light Island", but the "Floating Light Island" was on the sea, on our own side.

The legion needs to go to sea.

The next step must be to head to the "Floating Light Island". Su Xiao became the lord of the Orcs, not to help the Orcs beat the Sea Tribe to death. He was more like cooperating with the Orcs. In return, he wanted to achieve some of his own goals.

In addition to the good news of capturing White Hoof Port, the germ carpet will also be recovered tomorrow morning and returned to the lord's manor in Late Winter City. This means that a large number of evolutionary points are coming, and it is not known how high the Zerg can be improved.

kind of degree.

There were currently a total of 16,490 reputation points, and all the soul crystals and soul crystal cores in the camp store had been exchanged. After browsing for a while, he found the resources he wanted.

【Overlord Essence】

Stock quantity: 30 pieces (replenished from time to time).

Redemption prerequisite: reputation level·leader level (achieved).

Single exchange price: 120 to 400 reputation points (depending on the quality of the Overlord Essence being exchanged).



Su Xiao chose to exchange all the [Overlord Essence].

[You have consumed 9856 reputation points.]

[You get Overlord Essence ×30.]

[Overlord Essences] of different sizes appeared in front of Su Xiao. He put them all away. Counting the Overlord Essences he had saved before, he had a total of 39 [Overlord Essences].

Exchange 13 pieces of third-tier Overlord equipment? Of course not. Su Xiao’s idea is to go to Floating Light Island this time to see if he can use 39 [Overlord Essences] to exchange for 10 specifications through Dudugugu.

The largest [Overlord Essence], and use these 10 extra large [Overlord Essence] to exchange for a first-tier Overlord equipment.

Speaking of which, he obtained a lot of overlord equipment, but only two pieces were left. The [Golden Scale] was broken before, and the [Collector] was assimilated by the Brood. This left him with only the [Silver] overlord equipment.

Moon Blade] and [Blood Feather].

Thinking of this, Su Xiao took out the largest [Overlord Essence] currently held, but at this moment, an ethereal child's voice came.

"Can I eat it? It looks delicious."

This sound frightened Baha on the side, and Bubou Wang also heard the sound and looked over. But the next second, Bubou Wang's little expression began to be frightened, and his hind legs shook suddenly.

A little boy wearing a luxurious dress, with a fair complexion, but with cracks on his face like ceramics, was standing aside. His eyes were dark, and in the darkness, there were tiny white dots that were beating and turning.

, and its grinning mouth is also filled with pure darkness. Although it smiles innocently, it can send chills down one's spine.

The first time he saw this thing, Su Xiao was sure that it was the seller of the "Initial Mark" fragment from the main city of the Sea Tribe, the ancient city of Yatuo.

No movement was seen, the [Overlord Essence] in Su Xiao's hand disappeared, and it was in the hands of the black-eyed being. It tried to swallow the [Overlord Essence], but Su Xiao said:

"I have something more interesting, how about we exchange it?"

After hearing Su Xiao's words, the black-eyed being paused, and after a strange smile on his face, he said: "The contract is reached."

"..."

Su Xiao didn't say anything, just took out the silver seal box, opened it, and took out the "Soul Crown" from inside. This made the dark-eyed existence opposite narrowed its eyes and became a little unhappy, but what is worth being vigilant about is that it didn't seem to be afraid of this original sin.

things.

Seeing this, Su Xiao took out the "Netherworld Bone Ring". Seeing this thing, the anger on the face of the dark-eyed little boy opposite gradually faded away, but it could still be seen from his expression that he was not very willing.

Su Xiao didn't say anything. He took out a charcoal box, opened it, and took out the Necronomicon from inside. The meaning was obvious, didn't the Black Eyes want precious resources? These are all theirs.

The three original sin objects were placed in front. The black-eyed being no longer squinted, and its eyes seemed to be clearer. It looked at Su Xiao in surprise, as if it felt like it had been a long time since it had been seen. Finally, the black-eyed being snapped.

He threw the "Overlord Essence" in his hand on the table, looked at Su Xiao with disgust, turned around and walked into the opponent's wall.

After the black-eyed being left, Su Xiao's face became expressionless. She was tricked by the old guy, the priest. As soon as the old guy left the main city of the Sea Tribe, he came straight to his side. After he came, he said

He wants to strip away the "Golden Holy Grail", but actually the old guy knows very well that at this stage, it is impossible to strip away the "Golden Holy Grail".

You don't need to think about it to know that the old guy was targeted by the black-eyed being. When he came to Su Xiao's side, he clearly deliberately lured the black-eyed being over and let this being target Su Xiao.

As for why he was not lured to other places, it was because the priest felt that the probability of others being able to stop Black Eyes was too low. Only Su Xiao, who often dealt with Mao Shengzhi's madness, was good at this.

As a good teammate, the priest stabbed him in the back. In the priest's opinion, compared to the danger to life caused by the presence of black eyes, stabbing his good teammate in the back and making other sacrifices were acceptable.

Of course, Su Xiao had to respond positively to this kind of behavior from a good teammate. He opened the contact platform and tried to contact the priest. However, he received a prompt that he had no contact permission. This was obviously premeditated and the contact was blocked in advance.

Discovering this, the smile on Su Xiao's face became even more kind. He activated the legend ranking and transferred the legend to the priest.

[Tip (Tree of the Void): Your legend is -???, and you cannot perform regular transfers.]

[If the transfer target is found to be a semi-notarized violator, you can perform this transfer. However, if the transfer amount is huge, there is a high probability that the legend held by the transferred target will be synchronized to the same level as yours -?

??.]

Su Xiao did not hesitate and transferred the past 10 million legends to his good teammate Father. Not only that, he also did not forget about the priest's teammates, the violator Beverly and the violator Xiao Ge, and transferred 10 million legends to each of them.

, these three people have been forming a team since the time in Dead City. Soon, the legend ranking became:

[The ranking has been refreshed and the current ranking is as follows.]

Last place: White Night (Reincarnation Paradise), -??? points of legend.

The last position: Priest (Sanctuary Paradise), -??? points legend.

Last place: Xiao Ge (Sanctuary Paradise), -??? points legend.

Last place: Beverly (Reincarnation Paradise), -??? points legend.

First place: Ruthless Brother (Reincarnation Paradise), 756,900 legendary points.



As soon as the ranking came out, the ruthless brother who was ranked first was suddenly confused. For some reason, he felt aggrieved because there were actually several people ranked above him.
