46: Dead butterfly!

Ten Level 5 crystal nuclei!

Wu Jun's breathing grew heavy.

As long as he waited until midnight, when his Crystal Nucleus absorption count reset, absorbing ten Level 5 crystal nuclei in one go would allow him to directly reach Level 4!

At that time, he might even achieve the first global announcement for reaching Level 4!

Wu Jun squeezed his fingers, and after some struggle and hesitation, he agreed to the trade!

The trading market had its own set of rules for trade verification. He set the news of him evolving an SS-level talent through a black treasure box as the item to be traded. After confirmation from both parties, he quickly received ten Level 5 crystal nuclei!

With the Level 5 crystal nuclei in hand, Wu Jun couldn't help but marvel, the world of the Killing Game truly had hidden Talents!

This Terao was not simple!

At the same time, Terao, who saw the message and knew that Wu Jun had evolved an SS-level talent, also realized Wu Jun's extraordinary nature!

But what excited him even more was the effect of the black treasure box!

It was too heaven-defying! So, above S-Class, there was actually SS-level!

And the black treasure box truly lived up to its reputation as an existence beyond rules, capable of enhancing Talent levels!

What if his S-Class Destiny talent also evolved to SS-level?

Terao's breathing was hot and frantic!

He had to find every possible way to obtain a black treasure box!

However, given the characteristic that black treasure boxes could not be traded, the best way for him to acquire one was to form a power!

The more people he could command, the greater his chances of obtaining a black treasure box!

So, at this moment, Terao began his scheming.

Far away in Hai City, Wu Jun had similar thoughts to Terao!

The black treasure box was simply too tempting!

He also wanted to build a power to facilitate his acquisition of black treasure boxes!

Just as he was thinking this, Rong Jiming, a new subordinate he had just taken in, suddenly reported to him, "Boss! There's news!"

"What?"

"We got news from the chat channel that there's an extreme evolution Corpse Eater Boss in the Star River Bay residential area!"

Corpse Eater Boss?!

Wu Jun's eyes flickered, "Has it reached Level 6?"

"It doesn't seem so..."

"Sigh." Wu Jun sighed, "If not, then not. Hopefully, that Corpse Eater can drop some useful items."

As he spoke, he simultaneously directed one of his Corpse Eater subordinates towards Star River Bay and walked towards the vending machine generated by the gas station.

Meanwhile, in the Star River Bay residential area.

Lin Chuan stood on the balcony, enjoying the view for a while.

He was lazily stretching when he suddenly received a message from Aiya:

【Um, your pet egg hatched...】

Lin Chuan's mouth twitched slightly!

The probability of a pet egg successfully hatching without a Beast Tamer's appraisal was pitifully low!

Yet, Aiya had actually succeeded in hatching it!

However, Lin Chuan thought about it and figured it must be related to Aiya's own Talent.

He casually asked, 【It hatched into a bug, right?】

【Huh? How did you know?】

How did he know?

Because her Talent was suitable for raising bugs!

But he didn't tell Aiya directly, only pretending to be profound and asking, 【What does the bug look like? Describe it.】

【This bug seems a bit malnourished. It's completely black and shriveled. There's a withered yellow thin line running from its head to its tail, and it has one antenna on its head, also withered yellow, looking a bit malnourished...】

Aiya's tone subtly conveyed concern for the bug's condition.

However, Lin Chuan's mouth twitched again!

Damn it!

Ridiculous!

He was starting to suspect that this girl, Aiya, might actually be some kind of Daughter of Destiny?!

The Wangsi Butterfly was actually hatched by her???

He remembered that even with a Beast Tamer's guidance, and even with precious natural treasures, the hatching probability of the Wangsi Butterfly was pitifully low, wasn't it?!

No!

Something was definitely not right!

Aiya's Talent was indeed suitable for raising bugs.

But it shouldn't be enough to successfully hatch a Wangsi Butterfly, should it?!

Lin Chuan's brows were almost tied in a knot, and he asked with a serious expression, 【Is your Talent really just C-Class?】

Aiya's reply came after a moment: 【It's C-Class...】

Lin Chuan frowned and warned sternly, 【I advise you not to play any tricks on me.】

【...】 Aiya hesitated for a moment but decided to confess: 【Actually, I don't know what it means either, but there's a 'True' character after my Talent.】

Lin Chuan's mouth twitched again!

Damn it!

Simply outrageous!

A C-Class Talent could actually have a 'True' character???

This girl really was the Daughter of Destiny, wasn't she?!

The 'True' and 'False' of Talents generally only appeared in A-Class Talents and above.

Moreover, the concept of true and false would only emerge after the first world fusion.

For example, after Lei Ming's Talent evolved from A-Class to S-Class, it was a False S-Class!

Talents that evolved to S-Class through world fusion were generally False S-Class.

Whereas those that were S-Class from the very beginning of awakening were True S-Class.

Between True and False S-Class Talents, the True S-Class was naturally stronger.

True S-Class Talents were more adept at wielding the power of rules.

And False S-Class actually did not possess the power of rules!

It was the first time Lin Chuan had heard of a Talent below S-Class that could have a 'True' mark.

However, it was not difficult to deduce that although Aiya's Talent was indeed only C-Class, it concealed a trace of the power of rules.

It was this trace of the power of rules that allowed her to successfully hatch the Wangsi Butterfly!

Alright then.

Lin Chuan let out a breath.

He had to accept that there were always people in this world who were lucky and could easily obtain great opportunities.

Of course, Aiya's greatest opportunity was definitely not the Wangsi Butterfly, but Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan explained the feeding method for the Wangsi Butterfly to Aiya, then instructed, 【I can't go back for now, so trade me some more Blood Gu insects.】

【Oh, okay.】

After Aiya obediently agreed, she suddenly reported again, 【It's a bit strange here. In the Defense Bunker, I don't know why, but I'm the only one left. The Zhuo Family members and Zhuo Tiangang's classmates are all gone...】

Lin Chuan looked at these messages without any surprise.

Zhuo Tiangang and the others hadn't disappeared.

Instead, they had fallen into the Wangsi Purgatory!

The Wangsi Butterfly's greatest killing move was the Wangsi Purgatory!

Presumably, Zhuo Tiangang and the others harbored hostility towards Aiya, which led to them being attacked by the Wangsi Butterfly.

What Lin Chuan didn't know was—

It wasn't just Zhuo Tiangang and the others who were trapped in the Wangsi Purgatory!

There was also a group of cannon fodder preparing to encircle him, and they were likewise trapped in the Wangsi Purgatory!

And Aiya was still clueless, completely unaware of any of this.

She had no idea what a terrifying existence the shriveled bug in her hand was.

With a pained expression, she cradled the 'malnourished' bug in her palm.

Then she waved at Cai Zhiji, "Little Blackie, let's go."

At the same time, she muttered, "With the level ranking text above our heads, someone will definitely try to assassinate us! Our strength is too weak, we must keep a low profile!"

Cai Zhiji, a dark mass, looked bewildered.

Was it weak?

Well, if you say it's weak, then it's weak.

Cai Zhiji, who was originally prepared to charge into the Wangsi Purgatory and wreak havoc, decided to keep a low profile due to Aiya's warning.

Just like that, one person, one clone, and one bug left the Old Western-Style House in an exceptionally "low-key" manner.

Aiya was preparing to find a small forest to continue poking beehives.

And what she didn't know was—

Her and Cai Zhiji's "low-key" departure from the Old Western-Style House was seen by everyone in a nearby tall building!

The Luo Family, the Luan Family, the Qi Family, and the Nie Family still carried out their plan to encircle Lin Chuan!

A group of cannon fodder, driven by profit, entered the Old Western-Style House first.

According to the plan, those cannon fodder should have surrounded the Old Western-Style House, not letting even a fly out.

And the high-ranking members of these family powers were cowering in the tall building, waiting for the results!

But why did Cai Zhiji, with "level ranking Rank 2" above his head, and Aiya, with "level ranking Rank 198," come out of the Old Western-Style House?!

The Luo Family representative looked suspicious, "What's going on? Where are the people who went into the Old Western-Style House?"

"Where's Lin Chuan? Why didn't he come out?"

"What exactly is going on?"

The group quickly sent another person to investigate the situation inside the Old Western-Style House.

However, what was eerie was that everyone who entered the Old Western-Style House completely lost contact!

That Old Western-Style House had become a bizarre existence that one could only enter but not leave!

And the few people who secretly followed Aiya were instantly killed by Cai Zhiji!

These high-ranking family members, who had originally planned to encircle Lin Chuan, finally panicked.

Luan Yuling gazed at the eerie Old Western-Style House from afar, her face slightly pale: "Are those people all dead? Killed by Lin Chuan? How did he do it?"

"No, they're not dead, they must be trapped by something!" Qi Feng, who had narrowly escaped in the foul-smelling sewer, naturally joined the operation to encircle Lin Chuan on behalf of the Qi Family.

He stared intently at the Old Western-Style House, wishing he could hack Lin Chuan into a thousand pieces!

Standing beside him was the instructor who had once highly praised Lin Chuan and even considered sponsoring him—General Nie!

General Nie looked deeply at the eerie Old Western-Style House, his brows tightly furrowed: "In my opinion, we shouldn't have carried out this operation at all! Let's stop, Luo Yanping, call back the people following Aiya and Cai Zhiji, maybe we can still save their lives!"

Luo Yanping leaned his hands on the railing, his expression tense.

At this moment, Qi Feng spoke again: "From the beginning of this operation, our feud with Lin Chuan has already been established! As far as I know, Lin Chuan is petty and holds grudges! Even if we stop now, he will definitely not let us off! Instead of passively admitting defeat, it's better to kidnap Aiya, who has a good relationship with him, and find a breakthrough to conquer Lin Chuan through her!"
