397: Another opportunity and mission! My departure is the biggest joke!
"Holy cow! The territory is moving so fast! I can't even see what's outside!"
"No, I'm a bit dizzy!"
"Where's the Lord?"
"Which one in the projection screen is our person?"
"My goodness! That Younger Sister is too miserable! Her chest was actually pierced by a fist-sized hole!"
"She doesn't even have a heart, how is she still alive?"
"My word! Who is this brother? He just ate a blood bun?"
...The Guard Zone immediately became lively, with the Vassals eagerly exchanging words.
"Silence!"
At this moment, Su Liya appeared in the Guard Zone.
Hearing her, the Vassals all stopped talking.
The newly arrived Survivors hesitated for a few seconds, then also obediently stopped their discussions.
Zhang Lin, Zhao Jiu, and others walked to the front of the crowd, followed by the rest of the Vassals, excluding the Fisherman, who also successively teleported to the Guard Zone.
Zhao Jiu walked to the front of the crowd and said solemnly, "My name is Zhao Jiu! ...This time, I am here by the Lord's command to invite everyone to witness the strength of high-level Survivors!"
"According to intelligence, the one fleeing ahead is named Gouli, currently Level 101! A Third-Turn Professional!"
As soon as these words came out, the Vassals immediately showed expressions of horror.
Discussions started again.
"Holy cow! Besides us, there are other Survivors?"
"They're not from the same world as us, are they?"
"A Third-Turn Professional... Level 101... Then the one behind her must be even more powerful?"
...Zhao Jiu swept a stern gaze over them, and everyone was intimidated by Zhao Jiu's sharp eyes, not daring to speak further: "The one behind is named Curse Demon Zhang Qianyuan, specific intelligence information is unknown!"
"The purpose of gathering you all here today is to tell you..."
Immediately after, he relayed all the intelligence that Su Lie had just passed on to him through Su Ling.
This intelligence was about other Survivors, as well as simple information about high-level Class Changers and the Survivor Guild.
Currently, the number of Survivors in Su Lie's world has decreased to 1.5 billion.
When the number drops below 500 million, a world-level Survivor group merger event will be triggered.
Everyone will naturally know this information by then.
It's just that it won't be as much information as Su Lie provided.
Doing this allows the Survivors in Su Lie's territory to be psychologically prepared.
After everyone finished listening, they all fell silent.
Some looked at the scene before them in confusion, feeling as if everything was illusory.
Others were filled with fighting Spirit.
Some showed worry!
Others secretly rejoiced, finally standing beside a tall person.
Each had their own thoughts and emotions.
"Eh?"
Just then, a clear and surprised voice rang out: "Look!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice.
Someone couldn't help but look up at the dome of the Guard Zone.
Everyone else also looked up.
At this moment, the territory had stopped.
Gouli, about ten kilometers away from the territory, already had a deathly pale face; half of her body was filled with demonic energy, and her eyes were so tired that her eyelids kept drooping.
She was practically at the end of her rope.
Behind her, Curse Demon Zhang Qianyuan was still leisurely trailing Gouli.
He was about 1 kilometer away from Gouli, a wicked smile playing on his lips: "Gouli! Gouli! After taking two of my divine abilities, you can still run hundreds of kilometers in one breath, you really have a tough life!"
"Hehe!"
"But! Your life is at its end!"
"Even if the leader of December comes out, he can't save you now!"
His voice wasn't loud, but it just happened to reach Gouli's ears.
Gouli gritted her teeth after hearing it.
When she had traveled to within 10 kilometers of Su Lie's territory, she shouted hoarsely, "Gouli of the Thorn Group humbly requests the leader of December to help me drive away Zhang Qianyuan, I am willing to offer 1 billion contribution points!"
This was her last stubbornness.
She would rather die elsewhere than have her body fall into Zhang Qianyuan's hands.
And this transaction involved all the contribution points in her account.
It was also the asset she used to purchase Third-Turn armed equipment.
Who knew that in the end, she wouldn't even get to use it?
And her pet, Little Seven, had died once for her.
If not for that, she would have already died in the wilderness hundreds of kilometers away.
At this moment, a prompt from the mist rule appeared in Su Lie's vision.
【Buzz!】
【You have received an Opportunity Mission from Gouli!】
【Mission Requirement: Drive away Zhang Qianyuan and ensure Gouli's body is not taken by the enemy.】
【Mission Reward: 1 billion contribution points!】
【If Gouli dies, you will additionally receive Gouli's storage ring.】
【Note: Gouli's storage equipment contains nothing but basic resources and survival supplies!】
【Note: If Gouli dies, her territory will automatically disintegrate, her title (nobility title) will automatically disappear, and her fief will exist for 30 days. After 30 days, it will be owned by a newly promoted noble who completes the fief trial! The territory's residents and Vassals will be given one opportunity to pledge allegiance to others!
You have the first right to recruit!】
【Note: If Gouli dies, the resources and supplies in Gouli's territory will be taken by the mist rule.】
Su Lie, hidden in the air, twitched an eyelid: "Holy cow! In that case, only by saving Gouli can I get the maximum reward! And I'll also gain her gratitude for saving her life!"
"If I wait for her to die, I will not only lose an Opportunity Mission but also lose more resources!"
Su Lie also understood that as a Second Turn Refiner, and one who had offended the Trial Hall, the Vassals and residents within Gouli's territory would definitely not be recruited by him.
After all, they weren't Survivors from the same period.
Their levels were even higher than Su Lie's; how could they possibly pledge allegiance to a lower-level Su Lie!
Having thought through these issues, Su Lie directly responded, "Yes!"
【Buzz!】
Immediately after, Su Lie and Gouli both saw the corresponding information.
This made Gouli's breath relax.
Her speed involuntarily slowed down.
Zhang Qianyuan, who was following behind Gouli, frowned.
He looked at the huge virus-shaped territory ahead and whispered, "Brother from December! I, Zhang Qianyuan, am here to settle a personal grudge between me and that slut Gouli, not to ambush Su Lie!"
"Now Gouli has been poisoned by my unique demonic poison; even if she dies, she will become my puppet!"
"Please do not interfere in my personal grudge with Gouli!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and grabbed at the sky.
Buzz!
The falling blizzard in the sky instantly solidified.
Then, in just a few seconds, the sky in the hundreds of kilometers around the territory completely cleared.
And it was replaced by a demonic cloud emanating a strong demonic aura.
"Hiss! So powerful! He changed the weather with a raise of his hand!"
"No! Didn't you see the information displayed on the virtual screen? Is that weather? It's pollution! It's demonic energy pollution!"
"Hiss! This pressure is too terrifying! I can't help but tremble!"
...Inside Su Lie's territory, the Vassals were so intimidated by Zhang Qianyuan's power that they trembled all over.
The moment Su Ling intentionally let the pressure in, a large number of Vassals below Level 30 were so overwhelmed by this terrifying pressure that they fell to the ground.
In their perception, it was as if they were in boundless hell, enduring endless punishment.
This was a mental illusion brought about by the demonic energy's pressure.
Even Vassals like Zhang Lin and Ling Xu, whose levels had reached forty or so, only lasted for 3 seconds before breaking out in cold sweat, their eyes filled with continuous illusions.
It wasn't until Su Ling re-shielded this pressure, blocking it outside the territory's shield, that everyone broke free from the illusion.
Even so, most people still had weak legs and palpitations.
When everyone looked at the screen on the Guard Zone's dome again, Fear was etched on their faces.
"Too terrifying!"
"This kind of enemy is simply unimaginably powerful!"
"Is this a Third-Turn Professional?"
...Everyone roared hoarsely and weakly.
Su Lie also saw Zhang Qianyuan's panel information at this time.
He saw: 【Name: Zhang Qianyuan】
【Lifespan: 15 million years】
【Bloodline: Curse Demon (Human Demonic Transformation Bloodline: Demon, Deadly Poison Witch, Curse Spirit, Blood Gu, Heavenly Spirit, Big Dipper, Kun)】
【Identity: Third-Turn Professional】
【Rank: Mist Baron】
【Profession: Curse Martial Artist (Divine-level)】
【Level: 110】
【Note: You do not have permission to view other content of Zhang Qianyuan!】
【Note: When your rank advances to Mist Baron, you can view Zhang Qianyuan's title, attribute values, professional Skills, and other information.】
"Hiss! A Level 110 Third-Turn Professional! His level is 9 levels higher than Gouli's!"
Su Lie couldn't help but gasp after seeing this.
The dragon flame shotgun he was holding trembled slightly: "It seems I must go all out!"
As he spoke, he directly applied the Fire Refining Bullet auxiliary Skill to the dragon flame.
At the same time, he also used the second type of Xingtian possessed flowing light state for the Dragon's Breath Bullet, applying it to the dragon flame's bullets.
In addition, he also activated Talents such as Void Six Roots, Charm Aura, Friendliness, and Persuasiveness.
He also guided the power of the Gun God Talent and applied it to the dragon flame shotgun.
Most importantly, he placed the dragon flame shotgun in the second Equipment Slot and activated the effect of the Equipment Slot's ten-thousand-fold data gain.
At this moment, Su Lie, holding the dragon flame shotgun, gained:
Speed increased by 100 times, nerve reaction increased by 1100 times;
Gained 1500 times Fire Refining Critical Strike, Fire damage additionally increased by 15000 times, firearm damage increased by 1000 times; firearm rate of fire increased by 1000 times;
Firearm Critical Strike 100%; firearm precise hit rate 100%;
Firearm Critical Strike damage increased by 1000 times; firearm mobility increased by 1000 times;
Concentration increased by 1000 times; judgment increased by 1000 times;
1000 times Crisis Perception, Man-Gun Unity, One-Shot Kill;
Special effects: Burning, Vision, Pain, Weapon Break.
With so many powers added, the only thing Su Lie regretted was that this was a demonic gun.
If it were a holy gun, he could have applied the power of the Enchantment · Holy Fire Skill.
With this, plus the inherent power of the dragon flame shotgun, Su Lie's strike would reach at least 40 trillion base damage and 200 quadrillion critical strike damage.
This does not include the special effects brought by special effects and buffs.
"Phew! A bit more stable now!"
Su Lie exhaled.
At this moment, Gouli, who had already flown within 3 kilometers of the territory, felt her heart sink.
She still hadn't seen anyone come out of the territory.
That giant virus sphere seemed to have "died" at this moment.
"Hiss! Could it be that I'm going to be abandoned!"
Gouli's heart sank to its lowest point; she couldn't help but guess, "What a pity! Su Lie is only a Level 50 Second Transfer Survivor; if he could reach Level 100..."
"Haha!"
"I really must be about to die!"
"I'm actually putting my hope in someone else!"
"This shouldn't be!"
"Gouli! Gouli!"
"The leader of December accepted your Opportunity Mission merely to let you die in peace!"
"Zhang Qianyuan is a demonic brat from the Demon Hall! Although December is known as the strongest team, when it comes to methods of retaliation and insidious cunning, they still can't compare to the Demon Hall's tactics!"
"I understand that you don't want to provoke the demonic brat from the Demon Hall!"
"But..."
"Haha... I, Gouli... haha..."
"Am just a joke!"
...When she spoke the last two words, her voice echoed across the wilderness.
"A joke!"
"Joke!"
...The mournful sound reverberated through heaven and earth.
The word 'joke' seemed to have exhausted all of Gouli's strength, making her hunched over like an old person on the verge of death.
When she found that she still received no response, her heart completely chilled: "Today is the day I, Gouli, will die!"
Immediately, she no longer moved forward.
Gouli slowly turned in the air, facing Zhang Qianyuan, who was 5 kilometers behind her: "Zhang Qianyuan! You win!"
...
