121: Demon Killing Order, Reward for Qin Tian

“You have slain the Level 200 City Lord BOSS, Taketa Nobutora, gaining 160 million experience points.”

The game notification sounded.

Before Qin Tian, Taketa Nobutora’s body was directly cut into two halves.

With 240 million damage, even if his health was multiplied by 20 times, it wouldn’t be enough to withstand the blow.

Although there was a huge level gap, Taketa Nobutora still provided Qin Tian with a large amount of experience.

This caused Qin Tian’s experience bar to rise once again.

This was thanks to the experience boost from the Billion-Fold Upgrade talent.

If it were an ordinary player, with such a large level gap, they would only gain 1600 experience points.

This is experience decay.

It makes it impossible to level up by killing low-level monsters without danger.

Players can only constantly put themselves at risk by killing monsters of the same level, or even higher levels.

Qin Tian put away the long katana in his hand and looked at the items Taketa Nobutora dropped.

A samurai long katana and a book radiating golden light.

Qin Tian picked them up.

The samurai long katana was a Level 200 legendary equipment, with decent attributes, but for Qin Tian, who already held a Level 400 legendary equipment, it seemed somewhat redundant.

However, that skill book was good; it was an epic-grade katana weapon skill.

Although it required a Samurai profession to learn, Qin Tian, due to his ‘Human’ profession characteristic, could learn all professional skills.

Ignoring the requirements, Qin Tian used the skill book.

“Instant Slash: Swings the katana at an extremely fast speed, dealing 300% physical attack damage to enemies within a 10-meter radius, with a certain chance to cause enemies to enter a bleeding state for 3 seconds, losing 10% of their current health per second, and receiving half the healing effect. Cooldown: 30 seconds. (Skill Level 1/30).”

Skill learning completed, Qin Tian tried to use it once.

The attack speed was extremely fast, it was an instant release.

From drawing the katana to sheathing it, it was completed in less than a second, at a speed indistinguishable to the naked eye.

As Qin Tian used the skill, the level of Instant Slash also rapidly increased.

Qin Tian waited for the cooldown to end and released it a few more times.

Not only did he become more proficient, but the skill also directly reached max level.

At max level, Instant Slash’s range became larger, expanding to a 30-meter radius.

The bleeding amount also increased from 10% of current health to 15%.

The damage further increased from 300% to 500%.

It was simply a divine skill for small-scale team battles.

“Player Qin Tian has slain the Sakura Country City Lord BOSS Taketa Nobutora, a heinous crime! The Sakura Country Emperor has issued a Demon Subduing Order, placing a bounty on Qin Tian. Whoever slays Qin Tian, whether player or NPC, shall receive 3 mythical equipments of their choice and 100 million gold coins.”

...

Just as Qin Tian was about to leave to find his three pets, a global game notification suddenly sounded.

***

Huaxia.

Main City No. 83.

Zhao Ming and Huang Shi, upon hearing the game notification, were first stunned, then overjoyed.

After being suddenly teleported out of the National War battlefield, they had originally planned to hold a celebration banquet to express their admiration for Qin Tian’s miraculous performance in the National War.

However, they found that Qin Tian was nowhere to be seen.

Huang Shi and Zhao Ming tried to contact Qin Tian but couldn't get through.

Now, suddenly receiving news of Qin Tian, and knowing he was fine, both of them were delighted.

“Lord Qin is too amazing, isn’t he? The National War just ended, and how did he end up in Sakura Country’s homeland again?”

“Isn’t that the truth? Honestly, I didn’t get enough killing in the National War. How great would it have been if the Life Spring had been opened in Sakura Country back then.”

“You really dare to imagine, but you’re right. If I could really get nine Life Springs in Sakura Country, I could stomp the entire Sakura Island flat.”

“But looking at this global announcement, it seems Qin Tian has stirred up quite a bit of trouble. The Emperor’s Demon Subduing Order, I’ve never heard of it in so many years.”

“Have faith in Qin Tian’s strength. He’s synonymous with miracles. Maybe in a couple of days, there will be an announcement that Lord Qin directly chopped down the Sakura Country Emperor.”

“You really dare to imagine, haha.”

...

Huang Shi and Zhao Ming’s worried hearts relaxed. Although their conversation was exaggerated, for some reason, both of them felt that this might actually happen, and they couldn’t help but feel a little excited.

***

Sakura Country.

The news of the Demon Subduing Order spread.

The entire Sakura Country directly exploded into an uproar.

Killing a main city’s City Lord BOSS, such a thing had never happened since the game merged with reality, all these years.

This was not just a kill, but also a provocation.

It provoked not only Sakura Country’s NPCs but also all Sakura Country players.

That’s why the Sakura Country Emperor issued the Demon Subduing Order.

The purpose was to unite Sakura Country’s NPCs and players to collectively deal with Qin Tian.

“This Qin Tian, isn’t he the MVP from the previous National War battlefield? How did he get here? And he even killed a City Lord BOSS.”

“That’s not important. It’s already happened. This bounty is high enough, self-selected divine artifacts are truly tempting.”

“We must act quickly, before others, to slay him. Otherwise, if we’re late, the rewards will be claimed by someone else.”

“It’s a pity that it will still be some time before the world barrier breaks. I hope you can live a little longer. Mythical equipment is harder to obtain the higher the level.”

...

Sakura Country players who heard the notification, no matter where they were, stopped what they were doing.

Sakura Country players above Level 150 all had expressions of regret.

They wished their level would drop a few levels so they wouldn’t be restricted by the world barrier and could enter the Tier 3 area to slay Qin Tian and claim the Demon Subduing Order’s bounty.

Meanwhile, Sakura Country players in the Tier 3 area had already started inquiring which main city Taketa Nobutora was the BOSS of, and were setting off to find Qin Tian.

It must be said that to quickly eliminate Qin Tian, the Sakura Country Emperor’s bounty was very generous, driving all of Sakura Country’s players mad.

“A Demon Subduing Order, is it? Then let me show you what a true demon is.”

Qin Tian heard the news and a cold smile appeared on his face.

Qin Tian had no fear of the Demon Subduing Order.

Moreover, whether it existed or not would not affect his actions.

Since he was sent here by the Evil God, Qin Tian would not waste this opportunity.

He must help Sakura Country break free from the Evil God’s control.

He would send all of them to hell.

Qin Tian walked towards the outskirts of the city.

He had already sensed Meow Le Ge Mi’s location.

It wasn’t very far from here, and Meow Le Ge Mi’s health was dropping.

Clearly, it was in combat.
