129: Chapter 129 Has this person's follower ever quit?

Gu Han opened the message box. After reading the contents, his brows furrowed slightly.

The bounty had indeed been accepted.

However, the other party was extremely cautious; they were only willing to sell one transcendent crystal and specified that the transaction must take place via a "virtual coordinate."

The so-called virtual coordinate was actually just using someone else's Divine Kingdom as a third-party transit station.

Many large conglomerates or companies specializing in black market business would purchase large quantities of abandoned Divine Kingdoms. They converted these abandoned Divine Kingdoms into trading spaces that functioned like storage lockers.

Buyers and sellers would send the coordinates to them and dispatch their own Believers inside to drop off or pick up goods, never meeting in person throughout the entire process.

This method could easily prevent the seller's coordinates from being exposed.

It just meant he had to personally send a Believer to run the errand and retrieve the goods.

Gu Han rubbed his chin and began to scout for a candidate in his mind.

Should he send Wild King?

Wild King's combat power was indeed fierce right now, but his appearance was far too eye-catching. Since it concerned a transcendent crystal, it might invite covetous eyes. He still needed to be careful; Wild King would easily make people associate him with him.

After much thought, Gu Han had an idea.

Sending Qu Nimade was the most appropriate choice; a Level 4 Sapiens was not easy to attract attention to.

This kid had eaten his fair share of good things and also practiced Spiritual Qi, so he was definitely top-tier combat power among Level 4 Believers now.

As for whether he would run off with the transcendent crystal, Gu Han was not worried at all.

Ever since witnessing Gu Han's methods and those plants that could enhance strength, Qu Nimade was now determined to stay here.

Especially a while ago, when Qu Nimade went to wander around the Titan Mountains and came back, he knelt and prayed every day, saying he wanted a fair-skinned and beautiful female Titan Sapiens.

This kid clearly knew he could do it, but Gu Han introduced him to a female Titan Werewolf.

When the Werewolf was not in her wolf form, her appearance was no different from a normal Sapiens, and she was even a bit more wild and beautiful.

The Titan Race currently had somewhat low intelligence. Qu Nimade, that kid, brought all sorts of delicious food and drinks every day to curry favor, sweet-talking that huge female Werewolf until she was completely smitten.

Gu Han's mind stirred, and he directly descended his will onto the Titan Mountains.

At this moment, Qu Nimade was holding a skewer of roasted giant meat, handing it to the hot-bodied female Werewolf in front of him, while spouting flirtatious nonsense.

"Qu Nimade, you're slacking off again!" Gu Han's voice boomed in mid-air.

Qu Nimade shuddered in fright, and the roast meat in his hand almost fell to the ground. He reacted extremely quickly, promptly dropping to his knees, prostrating himself on the ground, and shouting loudly.

"Great God! Your loyal Believer, Qu Nimade, is always ready to serve you!"

The female Werewolf did not have high intelligence, but she also followed suit and lay on the ground, emitting "woof" sounds of submission.

"I have a mission for you." Gu Han couldn't be bothered with small talk and directly opened the virtual coordinate channel. "Go to this place and retrieve a transcendent crystal for me."

"I guarantee I will complete the mission! I will go through fire and water! My God! I will definitely bring the item back completely intact!" Qu Nimade raised his head, stood at attention, and swore his guarantee.

Gu Han was very satisfied with his attitude. After giving him the return coordinates, he went off to attend to his own business.

Qu Nimade stood up, adjusted the greatsword on his back, said a few words to the female Werewolf, and immediately stepped into the virtual channel.

After a brief sense of weightlessness, Qu Nimade's feet touched the ground.

He looked around.

This was a seemingly fertile Small World. Qu Nimade took a deep breath and immediately curled his lip in disdain.

"What a crappy place!" he muttered under his breath.

There wasn't a shred of Spiritual Qi in the air; it couldn't compare at all to Gu Han's Divine Kingdom, which was brimming with Spiritual Qi. He felt uncomfortable just staying here.

Qu Nimade did not delay. He pressed his index and middle fingers together and quickly formed a sword seal in front of his chest.

"Clang—"

The broad-bladed greatsword on his back unsheathed itself and hovered steadily beside his feet.

He leaped up, stepped onto the sword, and took flight, skimming the treetops as he moved forward.

After flying for a short while, an open clearing appeared in front of him.

In the center of the clearing, a small black box sat all alone. The surroundings were deathly quiet, without even a single living creature.

Qu Nimade landed very expertly from several dozen meters away; he did not rush over rashly.

After all, there was someone waiting for him at home; he had to be cautious in everything.

He formed a seal with his hands again, and the greatsword flew out with a "swish," hovering in front of the black box.

With the tip of the sword pointing upward, he gently pried open the lid of the box.

Inside lay a crystal stone emitting a faint glow.

Qu Nimade carefully identified it and confirmed that this was the transcendent crystal that his God wanted.

Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. He raised his right hand, and the greatsword flew back into the sheath on his back.

Immediately after, he mobilized the Spiritual Qi within his body, and an invisible suction force surged from his palm. With a grab through the air, the black box flew directly into his hand.

Stuffing the box into the cloth bag at his waist and tying the rope tightly, Qu Nimade patted his waist pouch and prepared to head home.

Just as he turned and walked a few steps away, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of what seemed to be another clearing behind the bushes to the front left.

Qu Nimade curiously leaned over to look.

In that clearing, there appeared yet another identical black box.

"Huh? How is there another one?"

Qu Nimade froze in place.

Before he left, his God had given clear instructions to only retrieve one transcendent crystal.

There was no reason for an extra one to be here.

He stopped cautiously, summoned his greatsword again, and pried open that box from a distance.

Inside, it was indeed also a transcendent crystal!

Not only that, Qu Nimade immediately took flight on his sword and looked forward from a commanding height.

On a small mound more than a hundred meters ahead, there was actually a third black box!

Qu Nimade swallowed hard, and his brain began to spin wildly.

If I bring back more transcendent crystals, will there be a reward!

No! Something was very wrong.

There were many experts in the Divine Kingdom; why did his God specifically send him to carry out the mission?

Could this be... a test from his God?!

The more Qu Nimade thought about it, the more it made sense.

It must be this! His God must be testing his loyalty and greed!

"Even taking a step back, even if it's not a test, since I have obtained one transcendent crystal and completed the mission, I must absolutely not cause any extra trouble."

Qu Nimade secretly warned himself in his heart.

He didn't even look at the remaining boxes and directly activated the return coordinates Gu Han had given him beforehand.

A space rift tore open in front of him, and Qu Nimade dove in without looking back.

The rift closed rapidly, and the surroundings returned to a deathly silence.

A gentle breeze blew across the clearing.

Just beneath the second box that Qu Nimade had just pried open, the originally flat soil suddenly began to wriggle violently.

Immediately after, the soil split open from the middle, and a large mouth opened.

"Damn! Has this person's Believer undergone discipline? He could resist temptation even with a transcendent crystal right in front of him?"
