490: Possessed by the God of Misfortune
An Qian, who was beside him, also took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and contacted the people of Qin An Royal Mansion.
After statistics, it was indeed found that there were two Platinum Experts within the Great Xia territory who were not among the people known to Qin An Royal Mansion.
One of them was targeting Beian City, and the other was targeting Hope City.
And they were already very close to their destinations at this time.
"Audin will definitely launch another sneak attack on Beian City and Hope City once he discovers your presence here. Let's split up and act," Qin Shilei said, looking up at An Qian.
"I think he will target Beian City first to attract our attention, and then sneak attack Hope City. You are fast, so you go to Beian City. I will use the Teleportation Array to return to Hope City," An Qian analyzed quickly.
In fact, Zhang Xiaoli was still in Hope City, but An Qian chose to return to Hope City just to be safe.
Kong Qingshu was currently assisting the people of Qin An Royal Mansion in a vassal state to clear out over a dozen Platinum Aliens that emerged from a Space Rift.
Having decided on a countermeasure, Qin Shilei immediately transformed into an afterimage and rushed towards Beian City.
Fortunately, the duration of his Elementalization had not yet expired, which was enough to support him until he reached Beian City.
An Qian found a place, took out the Teleportation Array steel plate that Qin Shilei had just given her, and instantly returned to Hope City.
Audin indeed acted as Qin Shilei and the others had guessed, having the group heading to Beian City launch their attack first.
Using the same tactic, the Platinum Expert split open the city gate and killed dozens of Evolvers.
Experts from the city came to assist, and Audin appeared.
The only difference was that as soon as Audin appeared, Qin Shilei had already arrived.
With a flash, Qin Shilei killed the Platinum Expert and two Gold Evolvers.
"Your speed of reinforcement is surprisingly fast?"
Audin knew that the surrounding space had been sealed off and made no futile struggles, instead turning to Qin Shilei to inquire about the information he wanted to know.
He had long suspected that Qin Shilei possessed a method to quickly reach various parts of Blue Star, but he didn't know much about this method. Now he wanted to investigate it.
"To actually come to our Great Xia and cause trouble, it seems that killing a few of your clones is not enough punishment for you."
Qin Shilei's gaze towards the other party was icy cold.
Upon hearing this, Audin's expression became even more unsightly.
Including this clone, the number of clones he had lost to the other party had reached five.
This made the always arrogant Audin's hatred for Qin Shilei surge like a never-ending river.
Audin suppressed his anger and asked again, "Did you just happen to return to Great Xia, or do you possess a long-distance teleportation skill?"
Qin Shilei did not answer, but instead cast his gaze upon the other party's body.
[Do you want to refresh the entries?]
[Refresh.]
Chatterbox (Green): His mouth simply cannot stop; he always has something to say.
Prodigal Son (Purple): Cannot save money at all; will unknowingly squander all his wealth.
Cursed by Misfortune (Orange): Even drinking cold water chokes him, wearing a Taoist robe he encounters ghosts; utterly unlucky.
Qin Shilei, of course, refreshed the other party with negative entries.
He didn't expect an orange entry to appear.
Qin Shilei subtly fixed the entry 'Cursed by Misfortune' on the other party.
"Audin, do you want me to spare this clone of yours?"
He didn't know why, but after killing four of the other party's clones, not a single spoils of war had dropped. Qin Shilei felt he should properly extort the other party.
"Are you that kind-hearted, willing to spare this clone of mine?" Audin looked disbelieving.
"Of course not."
Qin Shilei said indifferently, "If you want me to spare this clone of yours, you need to pay a small price."
Audin said calmly, "And what is this small price of yours?"
Qin Shilei scanned the other party up and down, "Just one artifact, and I will let you return to your divine kingdom."
"Pfft." Audin sneered, "Ignorant mortal, do you think artifacts are common street items? It's just a clone, kill it if you want."
Qin Shilei said disdainfully, "I didn't expect the esteemed Audin to not even be able to produce an artifact. Well, I won't force you then.
Then why don't you tell me about your gods?
Were you also humans on Blue Star before? Why did you leave Blue Star back then, and where did you go? How many gods are there left now?"
Audin thought for a moment, deciding it wasn't a secret, and began to speak: "Before igniting divine fire, we were indeed humans on Blue Star.
Because the spiritual energy on Blue Star was diminishing day by day, we had no choice but to leave Blue Star.
As for where we went, only after you become a god will you know. But I'm afraid you won't have that opportunity.
Before leaving Blue Star, we had hundreds of gods in total. How many are left now, I do not know."
Qin Shilei asked again, "Do all gods require the power of faith? Or rather, do they rely on the power of faith to become gods?"
Audin looked at Qin Shilei with a playful expression, as if saying, "Such confidential information, do you think I would tell you?"
Qin Shilei, provoked into anger, said, "Since you wish to die, I shall grant your wish."
With that, he struck the other party with the flat of his sword.
Audin resisted with all his might, but was still sent flying hundreds of meters.
Qin Shilei pursued closely, and struck again with the flat of his sword.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Audin was repeatedly sent flying by Qin Shilei, like a volleyball.
Although this clone of his was merely condensed from the power of faith, he felt as if all his bones were about to be shattered by the other party.
How infuriating, to actually humiliate this clone of mine in such a way.
Audin cursed Qin Shilei under his breath.
He suddenly realized that under the continuous beating of the other party, he was now more than ten kilometers away from the city gate.
Could it be that the space here had not been sealed by the other party?
Audin immediately and secretly tried to open a spatial passage.
He immediately made contact with his main body.
With a casual swipe, he tore open a spatial passage, then plunged into it.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to leave a harsh remark, "The next time we meet, it will be the day of your demise!"
"He finally left. If I kept hitting him, I would have almost shattered him."
Qin Shilei breathed a sigh of relief.
Killing this clone of the other party was not difficult at all.
However, since the other party could send out clones one after another, it indicated that losing one clone would not cause significant damage to the other party.
That's why Qin Shilei thought of fixing a negative entry on this clone of the other party.
If the other party's main body retrieved this clone,
would the 'Cursed by Misfortune' entry transfer to the other party's main body?
Qin Shilei felt it was completely worth conducting this experiment.
As soon as Audin's clone returned to the divine kingdom, he instantly appeared in the temple on the highest peak.
Then he flew towards the main body sitting on the throne in the temple and merged into the main body's body.
Indeed, as Qin Shilei had hoped, 'Cursed by Misfortune' transferred to Audin's main body.
However, the orange entry had turned into a purple entry.
After Audin retrieved his clone, he suddenly frowned.
He concentrated and scanned himself, but found no abnormalities.
He shook his head, picked up the coffee by his hand, and began to drink it.
"Cough, cough!"
The dignified god was actually choked by a cup of coffee, coughing incessantly!
