Drawing Cards With My Lifespan: Starting By Gamifying Reality - Chapter 26
Chapter 26: Door
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The gray fox was larger than he had imagined. It was the size of a small car, about three times the size of the green fox next to it.
Its body was covered in countless tumors. With its death, these tumors all burst open and a dark black liquid like oil flew out, corroding the ground and leaving deep marks.
Even though it was dead, its body still exuded a powerful and soul-stirring pressure, like the corpse of a giant dragon, making it difficult for people to approach.
“As expected of a level 4 monster!” Su Mo felt the pressure and the faint joy he had felt from killing the green fox was quickly suppressed.
He knew very well that killing a Level-2 monster was nothing.
If he encountered a level 4 gray fox like this one, he might not even be able to escape.
Yet in the situation where the demons of the origin world were invading, this was highly possible.
He had to seize the time to improve his strength.
Thinking about this, Su Mo looked at his lifespan which was rapidly increasing on his stats window.
Looking at the rate of the increase, he estimated that this level 4 gray fox should be able to give him 100 lifespan points.
In other words, a level 4 monster was just enough to give him a guaranteed chance to get a gold profession card.
Thank God he had joined the official organizations early on that he was able to follow his teammates and loot all the time, developing in secret.
Otherwise, if he were to rely on himself, who knew when he would be able to save up enough lifespan?
Even with the game interface, his advancement speed would have been dozens of times slower than it was now.
“As expected of myself. I’ve managed to cling to the best from the beginning!” Su Mo felt quite smug.
At that moment, a noise came from the sewer.
Then, a few people climbed up from below.
The leader was Deacon Xu Liushuang who was leading the team. He had long lost his initial gentlemanly demeanor. Not only was his hair messy, but his branded suit was also covered in dirt and dust. Even his carefully combed mustache had lost its exquisiteness and elegance, and it was sticking up in all directions.
Following closely behind Xu Liushuang was the second level 4 Transcendent on this trip, Xu Wei. He also looked messy. Even his signature Afro was burnt in several places.
Zhang Zhenyu, Old Master Zhou, and the others came up one after another, but they were not as miserable as the two in front.
Looking at the gray fox’s corpse not far away, Xu Wei could not help but spit on the ground, “Damn it, I almost failed miserably in an easy task. Who would have thought that this b*tch had so many secret weapons?!”
“It came from the origin world, after all. There are simply too many broken magic items there. Any one of them can be used as a secret weapon,” As Xu Liushuang spoke, he retracted the domain of slumber that covered the Space 7 Escape Room.
Then, his gaze was attracted by the green fox that was turning into pus. He asked curiously, “You killed this level 2 demon?”
The person he was asking was Xue Qiaoqiao, who was not far away.
Xue Qiaoqiao shook her head and pointed at Su Mo, “You should know that it was the work of a sword saint by looking at its injuries.”
“He did it alone?”
“What else do you think it was?” Xue Qiaoqiao was full of pride, “Xiao Su is much stronger than you think. ”
Xu Liushuang immediately looked at Su Mo in surprise.
Even Xu Wei, Zhang Zhenyu, and the others at the side cast their gazes over in shock.
Even though the green fox was about to melt into pus, with their keen senses, they could clearly tell that it was a level 2 monster.
It wasn’t rare for a level 1 Transcendent to kill a level 2 demon, but the problem was, how many days had it been since the level 1 Transcendent’s awakening?
Where did this genius sword saint Come from?
Xu Wei suddenly slapped his thigh and said with a pained heart, “Why did you have to join Team Furong? This is simply casting pearls before swine!”
Zhang Zhenyu replied smugly, “Oh my, this is really luck that can’t be stopped. I heard that someone in the next team awakened as a heavy cannoneer. In my opinion, even a cannoneer can’t match up to our Xiao Su’s speed of improvement.”
Hearing this, Xu Wei was even more jealous.
Ignoring this small matter, Xu Liushuang quickly turned his gaze to the gray fox demon. He squatted and examined it carefully. His brows gradually furrowed and he said, “This is the fox king, not the fox lord!”
Su Mo approached the fox king silently and asked curiously, “What’s the difference between the two?”
Xu Liushuang explained to Su Mo and the others in a serious tone, “It’s not the first time we’ve encountered a fox demon. The Bureau has even done some research on them. In the fox demon race, the fox lord has the highest status, not the fox king. All the fox monsters were born by the fox lord, including the fox king. The fox king can be said to be the most powerful fox demon of its generation, but compared to the fox lord, it is still very much inferior.”
“If this is not the fox lord, then how do you explain the number of fox demons here?” Xu Wei asked with a frown.
Xu Liushuang hesitated and said, “Maybe they sneaked in as a group, or maybe the fox lord died of dystocia during labor…”
Xue Qiaoqiao was speechless when she heard this, “Do you even believe your own guess?”
Without waiting for his reply, Chu Qingwu shouted from the other side, “Look what I found!”
As she spoke, she strode over with her long legs.
Then, she opened the exquisite suitcase in front of everyone.
A crystal with a special crack was immediately presented.
“The void-splitting stone!” Xu Liushuang exclaimed in disbelief, “Isn’t this a strictly controlled strategic resource? Why would it appear in a place like this?”
Su Mo looked at the crystal, and his heart trembled.
By browsing through some of the important posts in the Transcendent’s forum, he had mastered a lot of basic knowledge related to the Transcendent world.
The void-splitting stones were special crystals born in space storms. They could be used to stabilize space, anchor locations, create channels, and so on. It was said that some high-level Transcendents could even build teleportation gates with them and thus achieve long-distance fixed-point teleportation.
Due to this special effect, from the moment the void-splitting stone was known, it was classified as a strategic material under strict control.
The control of these stones was so strict that even a regional deacon like Xu Liushuang could not get his hands on one.
But now, they had found a void-splitting stone in the fox demon’s gathering point.
On the bright side, perhaps the fox demons had brought the void-splitting stone with them. After all, many places in the origin world had void-splitting stones.
But if they didn’t and instead obtained it from humans… The matter would be huge.
Many people already feel a terrifying storm brewing just by thinking about this possibility.
Xu Liushuang, on the other hand, did not think that far.
That was because there was an urgent problem in front of him.
He looked at the crowd and took a deep breath, “It seems that there is only one explanation for the appearance of so many fox demons. They must have opened the Door.”
