487: The lord of the district

Compared to Lin Tianwei, who was gradually getting excited, the Alien Cosmic Beasts were in an extremely sorry state.

Like dominoes, once fear began to spread, it would corrode the hearts of all Alien Cosmic Beasts.

Under the suppression of the Beast King Domain, they were even more unable to move, only trembling, fearing, and dreading.

“Who will save us!”

A thought rose in their minds.

The next moment, they saw an incomparably mighty figure blocking Lin Tianwei’s path,

standing before the nightmare that had just slaughtered countless of their companions.

“You deserve to die!”

Facing Lin Tianwei, who had just committed a great massacre, Batro directly issued a death ultimatum.

Claws followed closely, directly tearing through Lin Tianwei’s Beast King Domain, and attacking Lin Tianwei’s body at an extremely fast speed.

Batro had absolute confidence in his attack.

As a powerful Lord-level expert, his Claws were his most potent weapon.

The unique demon-breaking attribute could not only easily tear apart domains even stronger than his own, but also rip apart the enemy’s body.

Facing Batro, who had actively launched an attack against him, Lin Tianwei’s eyes were full of curiosity.

He was truly puzzled as to where a mere Lord-level third-stage Alien Cosmic Beast found the courage to face him directly and stand before him.

Facing Batro’s Claws, which were almost upon him, Lin Tianwei’s body suddenly expanded, transforming into the most terrifying nightmare right before Batro.

Not only that, but the Beast King Domain, which had originally been torn apart by Batro, instantly healed and began to corrode Batro’s mind.

There was no such thing as Batro tearing through the Beast King Domain with his Claws; it was merely Lin Tianwei opening a small gap for Batro, seeing as he had a prey actively throwing himself into his arms.

Lord-level third-stage strength?

As food, he was barely acceptable, making Lin Tianwei desire to devour him in one bite.

Opening his Giant Maw, completely ignoring Batro’s attack, Lin Tianwei simply swallowed him in one gulp.

Watching the sky-darkening shadow about to completely envelop him, Batro finally sobered up from his anger. Something seemed to be very wrong?

He seemed to have greatly misjudged the opponent’s strength.

From the current situation, the opponent’s strength was very likely stronger than his own, perhaps even much stronger!

Upon realizing this, Batro instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

He never imagined that such a powerful expert would come here to launch a sneak attack.

Could it be that the experts on their side aren’t afraid of being targeted?

One must know that the value of an expert is also considerable; if too active, they can easily be targeted by enemy experts, ultimately leading to their demise.

However, now was not the time to ponder why the opponent appeared here.

Upon realizing the disparity in strength between them, Batro instantly changed direction, no longer using his Claws to attack, but instead attempting to use his Claws to carve a path for escape.

However, it was only when trying to escape that Batro discovered with horror that his once infallible Claws had for the first time lost their effectiveness, unable to break through the domain that he had just been able to easily tear apart.

Leading the wolf into the house!

Upon connecting these dots, Batro felt his scalp tingle even more. He used all his might to try and break free from the Beast King Domain’s restraints, but to his surprise, he couldn’t break free at all.

Moreover, because of his fear, the power of the Beast King Domain increased, making him even more unable to move.

He could only watch helplessly as Lin Tianwei’s Giant Maw drew closer and closer, eventually being swallowed whole and returning to a world of darkness.

Horror, utter shock.

There is nothing more despairing than hope that has just risen being instantly crushed.

The moment Batro appeared, these Alien Cosmic Beasts thought they would receive protection, but they never expected to witness something that would shatter their worldview.

The powerful Lord Batro bravely charged, and the powerful Lord Batro was gone.

This absurd development even made them rub their eyes, wanting to know if what they had just seen was an illusion.

Only an illusion could be so absurd.

However, they soon realized that this was definitely not an illusion, because countless claw marks appeared in the sky again, launching an attack on them with lightning speed.

Along with the rising smoke, Alien Novice Village No. 126578 finally vanished under Lin Tianwei’s attack,

leaving no trace that a bustling Novice Village had once existed here.

Merit Points + 100,000,000!

Looking at the notification of Merit Points arriving, Lin Tianwei expressed great satisfaction.

Only such a fast rate of earning Merit Points could allow him to obtain a God King Inheritance.

If the speed of earning Merit Points was any slower, he might even miss out due to inflation.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei’s figure instantly disappeared. He was in a hurry to go to the next mission location and had no time to waste in this ruin… Lin Tianwei chose to leave gracefully, but the impact he caused was like an lingering shadow covering the hearts of the Alien Cosmic Beasts.

In a large conference room, several powerful phantoms stood, rapidly discussing something.

“According to the latest news, Novice Village No. 126578 has been annihilated.”

“Novice Village annihilated? It’s been a long time since something like this happened.”

“Which legion did such a foolish thing? Don’t they know the consequences of doing that?”

“How dare they annihilate our Novice Village?”

“Then let them await our revenge. I just hope he has the strength to bear the consequences of his actions.”

“It wasn’t done by a specific legion, but by a single Cosmic Beast, a powerful Cosmic Beast.”

“Who is it? Which Cosmic Beast dares to do something so outrageous?”

“Without the protection of a legion, it’s even more impossible for him to survive our revenge.”

“Intelligence shows that this is an extremely unfamiliar Cosmic Beast, very likely a greenhorn entering the Alien Battlefield for the first time.”

“This is his image. You can also see if you have any clues.”

As soon as the words fell, Lin Tianwei’s figure was clearly reflected in the eyes of all the beasts.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Tianwei, as someone entering the Alien Battlefield for the first time, could not possibly attract the attention of these aliens.

However, a mechanical expert named Balota, upon seeing Lin Tianwei’s image, seemed to recall something and said:

“This Cosmic Beast is very unfamiliar; I’ve never seen him before. Perhaps he’s a greenhorn who just arrived.”

“Regardless of his identity, since he dares to provoke our Chaos Universe, he must not be tolerated.”

“Issue a bounty mission. The dignity of the Chaos Universe must never be offended.”

“Indeed, if any random nobody can run wild in our Chaos Universe, then the Chaos Universe won’t be far from destruction.”

“I propose a bounty of two billion Merit Points as a reward for the head of this Cosmic Beast.”

“The dignity of the Chaos Universe must not be infringed upon.”

Facing the bounty of two billion Merit Points, Balota seemed dissatisfied.

How could such a small reward incite a large number of powerful Alien Cosmic Beasts to hunt down this Cosmic Beast who dared to defy Lord Star Devouring Beast? He immediately added:

“How is two billion Merit Points enough? At least it should be a bounty of ten billion Merit Points. People who don’t know might think our Chaos Universe can’t afford Merit Points.”

“Ten billion Merit Points? You truly don’t know the cost of living until you run a household.”

“I can indeed afford ten billion Merit Points, but I can only say that this Cosmic Beast is not worthy.”

“A Lord-level peak expert only has a bounty of one billion Merit Points. If it weren’t for the special circumstances, intending to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, a bounty of two billion Merit Points would be completely sufficient.”

“You just wait and see; within three years, his head will be displayed on the table, as a consequence of his insolence.”

“Indeed, two billion Merit Points is already quite sufficient.”

“I support the proposal to offer a two billion Merit Point bounty for the capture of this Cosmic Beast.”

“I support it!”

...“I also support it!”

Watching the Cosmic Beasts who all supported the proposal, Balota, though a bit anxious, eventually closed his mouth.

Anyway, as soon as these self-important Cosmic Beasts suffered a setback, Lin’s value would naturally skyrocket.

That was a terrifying figure who had survived under the Claws of Lord Star Devouring Beast; how could he be measured by a mere Lord-level peak existence... Lin Tianwei, currently rushing to the next Novice Village, never imagined that he would be burdened with such a heavy bounty after completing only his first mission.

Of course, even if Lin Tianwei knew, he would only scoff.

Bounty on him? That’s truly wonderful.

At that time, even more Cosmic Beasts would actively deliver themselves to him, becoming part of the Merit Points he needed to exchange for the God King Inheritance.

Although the tasks were similar, the rewards were distinctly different.

For instance, the reward for conquering Alien Novice Village No. 9527 was significantly higher, a full three hundred million Merit Points, which even tempted Lin Tianwei.

As long as he conquered over three thousand more Novice Villages like this, Lin Tianwei would be able to successfully exchange for a God King Inheritance.

The reason he initially chose Alien Novice Village No. 126578 as his target was simply because its location was the closest to where Lin Tianwei was.

While traveling to the next Novice Village, Lin Tianwei communicated with Batro, who was restrained within his body.

Batro was, after all, the first powerful Alien Cosmic Beast he had captured; directly devouring him as food would be a bit of a waste.

It would be a much better and cost-effective method to extract enough intelligence from him first, and then devour him as food.

“Name?”

Batro, wandering in the endless dark abyss, suddenly heard a majestic voice. Under its pressure, Batro subconsciously blurted out his name: “Batro.”

However, after speaking his name, he regretted it. He was a Lord-level expert; how could he answer simply when asked? He should at least put up some resistance for a while.

Furthermore, the other party was his enemy, an enemy of the Chaos Universe; he should be even less cooperative.

Especially when the other party was inquiring about important intelligence, he absolutely had to keep silent.

Just as Batro was thinking that, he heard Lin Tianwei’s voice again:

“Is there any way to quickly earn Merit Points?”

Lin Tianwei was not interested in the secrets between the two great universes, or rather, the secrets that could interest him were not something that Batro, a mere Lord-level Alien Cosmic Beast, could know.

So he only asked about what he was most interested in right now: how to acquire a large amount of Merit Points.

“Is that your attitude when asking me questions?”

Facing Lin Tianwei’s inquiry, Batro, who was prepared this time, did not answer, choosing instead to remain silent.

However, as he did so, he instantly felt an extremely terrifying pressure, a huge pressure that oppressed both his body and soul.

The originally quiet and calm darkness became a great danger, subtly beginning to corrode Batro’s body.

In just a moment, Batro felt one percent of his body being digested.

Only then did he realize that he was currently inside Lin Tianwei’s stomach, existing as food.

To negotiate terms with Lin Tianwei, he at least needed to prove he was worthy.

Thinking of this, Batro exclaimed, “I know, I know a way to quickly acquire Merit Points.”

It was only after Batro said this that he felt the power corroding his body diminish significantly, and he let out a slight sigh of relief.

At least his life was saved.

Whether he could continue to live, and even gain benefits from this unknown expert, would depend on how things developed next.

Thinking of this, Batro recounted in detail:

“I guess, senior, you might have just arrived at the Alien Battlefield and are not familiar with its situation, which is why you ask such a basic question.”

“After all, powerful Cosmic Beasts can do very well in the Alien Battlefield and don’t need to personally take risks like you.”

“The act of single-handedly taking down a Novice Village seems cool, but it’s actually very risky and can easily lead to being trapped and besieged to death.”

At this point, Batro felt he might have been a bit offensive and added, “Of course, for a powerful senior like you, such risks certainly don’t exist.”

“However, after all that effort, you only gain a little over one hundred million Merit Points, and it’s more likely to attract the attention of unknown existences, which is simply not worth the effort.”

“If you need Merit Points, a large amount of Merit Points, I could recommend you join the Score Farming Alliance.”

“I wonder if you’ve noticed the rules for obtaining Merit Points. Perhaps to ensure the interests of participants, there are very large loopholes to exploit.”

“As long as certain conditions are met, even if the enemy is not killed, you can still obtain Merit Points for defeating the opponent, or rather, for completing the mission.”

“In this way, obtaining a large amount of Merit Points is no longer a difficult task.”

“You just need to join the Score Farming Alliance, cooperate with each other, and you will quickly obtain millions of Merit Points.” (End of chapter)
