Chapter 41: The Tree and the Vulture(1/3)
In the small house with the door closed, the spatial fluctuations had completely disappeared. Su Xiao did not leave immediately, but waited here temporarily to prevent the enemy from tracking here based on clues.
After waiting for a moment, even Baha couldn't sense any spatial fluctuations in the room. Su Xiao was completely relieved. The netherworld forces did not choose to track the spatial rift here. In all likelihood, they triggered the chain array diagram and tracked Kain.
there.
That's right, letting Kain take the blame was the unanimous response of Su Xiao, Father, and Caesar. The reason was that among the three of them, Kain was hostile to two of them. Who else could he cheat?
This matter requires the cooperation of the priest. Judging from the current situation, the priest has completed the decoration in the ancient house, which also represents the priest's attitude.
Su Xiao has always had a suspicion in her heart that the current situation is actually what the old priest wants to see most.
This is not Su Xiao's conjecture. First of all, it is the way the priest entered this world. The other party also used [The Beginning of Nightmares] to enter this world.
Su Xiao is a hunter, and Undead Girl is a former hunter. It is normal for the two of them to get [The Beginning of the Nightmare], but as a priest who is a violator, it is quite difficult to get this thing.
The priest not only obtained it, but also used it to enter this world. After that, what did the priest do?
The answer is that the other party did not explore the situation of this world, or gain benefits, etc. The other party seems to have known the pattern of this world for a long time. When he first entered this world, the first thing he did was to find other people who used [The Beginning of Nightmares] to enter.
people of this world.
The priest first found the undead girl, and then he and the undead girl found Su Xiao. In the end, the three of them, who had all used [The Beginning of the Nightmare], chose to cooperate.
One thing that Su Xiao couldn't figure out before was that the priest, who was as stable as an old dog, was actually willing to stand up and take the initiative to go to "Okai Star" to explore the invasion of Netherworld. This was not as simple as being suspicious, but a bit confusing.
Surprised.
After that, the priest directly joins the Netherworld camp and reaches the underworld. No matter how you look at it, the core purpose of this old guy is to reach the underworld.
This feeling is very similar to that before the priest entered this world, he knew that there was something in the underworld that he longed for, but it was impossible to enter the underworld directly, so he chose a compromise method, entering this world first and using it as a springboard.
Enter the underworld and finally get the thing you desire.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao felt a little more at ease. He was not going to snatch that thing. He had never thought that all the secret treasures in the world belonged to him.
What Su Xiao cares about is whether what the old guy, the priest, is going to do next will hinder him. The old guy is disappearing now, which is very troublesome.
It's not that Su Xiao can't kill the priest. First of all, the opponent cannot be killed, and secondly, the cost of killing the opponent is relatively high, resulting in loss of blood.
In the tree world, the scene before the priest's death was both terrifying and strange.
When you fight to the eighth level, you can really encounter any opponent. Some opponents are like this. After killing the opponent, the battle has just begun, such as the gentle neighbor next door, Psalm, who likes to bury people.
In the last world, Gulu experienced the most unforgettable days in his life after killing the other party. In those days, Gulu not only lost weight, but also had dark circles under his eyes that were as thick as smoky makeup.
The good news at the moment is that the priest's goal seems to have been achieved, that is, from now on, everyone will play his own way without interfering with each other. The priest is not the kind of person who will show off or ridicule after achieving his goal. The old guy is very stable.
, once the goal is achieved, you will not be able to find him at all.
Su Xiao looked through the prompts that just appeared. This time she went to the City of the Dead to purchase goods. It was a great harvest. She got two kinds of inherited professional items, as well as matching skill inheritance stones and sets.
And [Inscription Base·Angry Image] is definitely the most valuable item this time. Its attributes are:

…
Su Xiao had already thought about the four-slot inscription base, but unfortunately he couldn't buy it at all. It was not surprising that he could get it from the Netherworld forces this time. They were very rich there.
I looked at the time and saw that it was already eight o'clock in the morning. Due to what happened just now, the netherworld forces should take the initiative to attack. Fortunately, the mother nest has cultivated 130,000 elite demonic beasts, so they are not afraid of the enemy's attack.
If all the existing 420,000 demonic beasts can be replaced with elite demonic beasts, it will be possible to engage in head-on confrontation with the Netherworld forces. Not only will this be true, but it will also have an advantage.
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was eerily quiet at the Netherworld Gate, and there was no scene of the imaginary army attacking.
This doubt did not bother Su Xiao for too long, and he got the answer. There was a roar outside the city wall of the base camp, which then subsided. A moment later, a vampire tied up with five-flowered translucent tentacles was escorted in.
This vampire's skin is pale, and his whole body is shaking at the moment. He is not scared, but angry. He is a messenger sent by Princess Yan. The purpose is to negotiate a matter with Sun Nest. It doesn't care if it is caught. The key is to tie it up.
The translucent tentacles are tied together in a way that is... difficult to describe.
You don't need to think too hard to know that this immoral thing must have been Baha's bad idea.
"..."
Su Xiao raised her hand to signal for release. As soon as the translucent tentacles were loosened, several tail blades were pressed against the neck of the blood envoy.
"Dear Sun Lord, I am the subordinate of Princess Yan..."
The blood envoy was just halfway through his polite words when Baha said: "Let's get straight to the point. Time is precious for both of us now, and we will have to continue fighting in a while."
"Uh~, okay."
The blood envoy smiled a little embarrassed. After brewing some excuses in his stomach, he said: "Then I'll make a long story short. The thing is like this. Before you stole... ahem~, among the treasures you took away,
There is a crown, which is something my king cherished in his early years, and we hope to exchange the crown as a hostage."
"hostage?"
Baha looked suspicious.
"It's Mr. Kane and three others. They didn't have time to escape and were taken into custody by us."
After saying this, the blood envoy became a little tougher. After all, he had a hostage.
When Su Xiao heard that Kaiin and the other three were being detained, his face remained calm. The first thought in his mind was that there was such a good thing. He looked thoughtful and began to say in a bad tone:
"Are you threatening me?"
"It's not a threat, it's more like a deal. Are you right, Lord?"
The blood envoy smiled and lowered his head. He came this time and had no intention of going back alive. Of course he was justified in his heart.
If Su Xiao remembered correctly, the crown was with the undead girl. The undead girl had a collecting habit. According to her, there was a room in her exclusive room full of such items.
If the Nether forces exchange resources for resources, Su Xiao, Undead Girl, and Caesar will definitely pass unanimously, and finally reach a deal with Netherworld, but in exchange for the lives of Kain and the other three, this is too lazy to care. The war situation has reached this level, and there is no need to worry about it.
Don't waste time, lest this be a trap by the netherworld forces.
"Thank you for coming all the way."
"Don't dare."
The blood envoy smiled and nodded repeatedly.
"Drag him down and kill him."
"!"
The blood envoy looked at Su Xiao in astonishment, his cheeks twitched, his eyes were stern, and he said urgently: "Wait to collect the bodies of your three accomplices, the princess will avenge me, you all have to..."
Pfft~
Outside the wooden building, the tail blade slashed through, and a string of blood beads came out in mid-air. The blood-born messenger's resentful head flew up and fell to the ground.
Bang!
Princess Yan clapped one hand on the discussion table. She looked at the image gradually dissipating in front of her and said angrily:
"This is unreasonable, it's too much to bully others!"
Princess Yan, who had never liked reading, was so angry that her speech changed. In the conference hall, after the initial anger passed, Princess Yan ordered:
"Come here, go and execute those three people."
"yes."
"Hang them later."
"yes."
"No, push them into the pit and drown them. I'm so angry!"
The more Princess Yan thought about it, the angrier she became. The herald in front of him, who was kneeling on one knee, had sweat on his face and did not dare to express his anger.
"Let them go."
The host, Crow Eagle Solaro, spoke up. After hearing this, everyone in the chamber was in an uproar.
Solaro didn't explain anything else, but just waved his hand to let everyone else get out. He felt something was wrong just now. After some careful consideration, he was basically sure that the three of Kain and Sun's Hallownest were not only not accomplices, but enemies.
Those were just three unlucky guys.
