Set off - to the land of divine punishment!

Soon, the barbecue was laid out on the small wooden table.

The aroma was intoxicating, full of cumin.

Li Xunle watched the two of them devour the grilled kidneys, his mouth twitching.

Their eating habits were truly unsightly… So, adopting a 'if you can't beat them, join them' mentality, he immediately grabbed other skewers and started gorging himself.

And surprisingly, it tasted pretty good!

"Li Xunle, want a drink?"

Tang Long handed him a bottle of beer.

Li Xunle shook his head, refusing. He found the horse-piss taste of beer hard to adapt to; the flavor wasn't as good as white liquor.

Wang Hong and Tang Long drank by themselves.

After a few bottles of alcohol, Wang Hong and Tang Long began to open up and chat freely.

Wang Hong, with bleary eyes, stared at Li Xunle:

"Brother, I think you have a big secret, don't you?"

"It's as if you two don't have any secrets?"

Li Xunle replied while eating garlic-flavored eggplant.

In this day and age, who doesn't have a few secrets?

After speaking, he pulled off a long strip of eggplant flesh, stuffed it into his mouth, and mixed it with pickled radish.

One bite, and it was incredibly sour and refreshing.

A look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

"Is it convenient to reveal a little?" Tang Long asked curiously.

Li Xunle shook his head: "Reveal? How about you reveal the secrets of your phone browser first?"

He thought to himself: Are these two drunk? Why are they asking such a basic question?

Wang Hong laughed heartily, then his face showed worry:

"This time you're going to the Land of Divine Punishment. If the success rate is very low, retreat quickly. Don't throw your lives away."

A strange light flickered in Li Xunle's eyes:

"What? You're not very optimistic about this operation?"

Wang Hong nodded:

"Actually, I know the probability is a bit low. I'm just trying it out. Those six top Adventurers aren't optimistic about this operation, including Wang Hao himself, but I still want to persevere."

"You still have to have dreams, what if a miracle happens?"

Li Xunle said calmly. After speaking, he continued:

"If, and I mean if, this operation succeeds, will I get any extra benefits?"

Wang Hong was stunned, pondering for a while:

"If Wang Hao successfully contracts a dragon pet, no matter how the situation changes in the future, he will definitely be your eternal friend. As long as you ask, he will absolutely not refuse!"

He paused in his speech:

"If you can collect luck crystal, no matter how much or how little, you will be a great hero of the Ninth District. Aside from anything else, you can walk freely in this Ninth District, and you will have priority in everything. I guarantee it!"

Li Xunle nodded lightly upon hearing this, raising an eyebrow:

"So, I mean, are there any material rewards or anything?"

"If you collect luck crystal fragments for the Ninth District, I will apply for a reward for you, no less than 20 million."

"Hey! That's more like it!"

Li Xunle nodded with satisfaction.

But it wasn't because he lacked that money, but a matter of sincerity.

Only then could he work with enthusiasm.

Otherwise, he would always feel shortchanged, something would be missing.

Just then, Li Xunle's phone rang.

He took it out and saw it was a call from Zhao Hao, so he immediately answered.

The other party's tone sounded very worried:

"Big Brother, where are you? How are you doing?"

"Nothing, just eating barbecue."

"Ah? Eating barbecue? Are you alone?"

"No, there are two friends." Li Xunle glanced at Wang Hong and Tang Long.

One is the director of the Ninth District Law Enforcement Bureau, and the other is the Law Enforcement Team captain… "Big Brother, are you really okay?"

"Don't worry, everything is settled."

"Settled? Thank you, Big Brother!" Zhao Hao's tone was very excited.

"I'm going on a long trip recently, so take care of yourself."

"Ah? Big Brother, you weren't exiled to the frontier, were you? Or did you get arrested?"

Zhao Hao suddenly started to worry. He suspected that Li Xunle might be unable to get out because of his own affairs.

Then he found an excuse about a long journey to put him off, just like in the movies… A black line appeared on Li Xunle's forehead:

"Go to hell, can't you talk properly?"

"Uh…"

"Alright, that's enough. I'm fine, hanging up!"

… The next morning, after Li Xunle woke up in the hotel next to the Law Enforcement Bureau building and quickly washed up, he met up with Wang Hao and the others as agreed.

The hotel was booked by Wang Hong, VIP of VIPs.

Before meeting, he received the Law Enforcement Team captain's ID from Wang Hong.

Soon, Li Xunle met up with Wang Hao and the others.

Wang Hao was followed by six well-equipped senior Adventurers.

When he saw the leisurely Li Xunle, he was very surprised:

"Boss, it really is you!"

"It's me!" Li Xunle said lightly.

Wang Hao shook Li Xunle's hand, overjoyed.

He had received a call from Wang Hong late last night, saying that Li Xunle would accompany them to the Land of Divine Punishment.

He also said that the other party had a resurrection skill and could help him.

He thought his uncle was joking, but Wang Hong repeated it more than three times:

This is not a joke!

This directly made Wang Hao prostrate himself in awe.

His perception of Li Xunle was once again refreshed:

Li Xunle, Fengchu Academy's First Poisonous Healer, the number one person in the three major academies' competition, can poison, kill, heal, and resurrect!

What the hell!

Doesn't that mean he completely controls the life and death of others?

He had searched for a long time for someone with a resurrection skill, and he didn't expect them to be right beside him.

Unexpected!

Very unexpected!

This gave him an extra glimmer of hope for contracting a dragon pet in the Land of Divine Punishment this time.

Behind Wang Hao, the six top Adventurers all raised their eyebrows, looking at the mysterious Li Xunle in surprise.

Among them, there was even a woman.

One of the short-haired middle-aged men spoke curiously:

"Hello, my name is A-Long, and I am the captain of the Adventurers team. The nicknames of the other five are: A-Hu, A-Niu, A-Mao, A-Gou, and A-Qian."

"…"

Li Xunle immediately chuckled inwardly; A-Qian had even come.

He really didn't expect it to be so casual… A-Mao was the only heroic and spirited woman in the Adventurers team.

A-Long looked at Li Xunle and continued to communicate:

"I heard that you are a Priest? Do you have a resurrection skill?"

"Yes, I am a Priest."

"Is your healing sufficient?"

"My Poisonous Healer is more sufficient!"

"Poisonous Healer…?"

Several burly Adventurers looked at each other… Poisonous Healer? What the hell is that?

Wang Hao immediately explained:

"Gentlemen, this Healer is not ordinary. I've been healed by him before. I can't say his healing is sufficient; I can only say it's useless. Don't count on his healing…"

He paused, his expression strange:

"Counting on his poison might be more promising."

Li Xunle smiled slightly, very candidly:

"He's not wrong."

He knew very well that his current tactic was the kiting method, so he hadn't added any points to the [Intelligence] attribute.

Although he had an [Intelligence] staff, his healing wasn't sufficient.

It was just better than nothing.

And Wind of Revival, as a five-star skill, was indeed still usable.

Later, he planned to add all points to [Intelligence]. After getting Sacred Teleport, he wouldn't need to use his own sprint.

After Wang Hao smiled and looked around:

"Captain A-Long, please lead the way. We'll talk as we go."

"Alright! Let's go!"

Li Xunle followed the others into the car. It was a muscle off-road vehicle.

There were two vehicles.

Li Xunle asked curiously:

"Are we driving to the Land of Divine Punishment?"

"What are you thinking? You can't drive to the Land of Divine Punishment. We have to drive first, go to the teleportation array, teleport to the border, and then walk into the Land of Divine Punishment."

"I see!" Li Xunle nodded.

A-Long spoke solemnly:

"Be careful. The Land of Divine Punishment is extremely dangerous. It's located at the junction of several countries. Besides encountering high-level fierce beasts and monsters, you might also encounter enemy forces."

Li Xunle nodded: "I've heard of that."

A-Long's tone was serious:

"Pay special attention: especially young potential talents like you two, you are important targets for the enemy to nip in the bud."

Li Xunle was a little surprised:

"Nip in the bud?"

He mumbled to himself: It's not certain who will kill whom!
