The Death List Novel - Chapter 108
Chapter 108 Death Hunt
The item Junko Yoshida displayed wasn’t equipment, but a skill scroll. In the 3D projection in front of the Japanese girl, a simple magic scroll was rotating. Judging from the effects of the projection skill, this was a magical defensive skill formed from a magical array.
The magic array was composed of five circles. Each of the four corners had a small circle array. Then, the large circle array in the center was connected together to form a simple magic array.
This magic array did not disappear after being activated. Instead, it was like a mirror condensed from magical elements, shining with gorgeous elemental colors. Occasionally, small hexagonal honeycomb structures would light up in the four small and one large magical circles. This was also the strongest type of magical structure.
[Crystal Mirror Magic Array (C-level Active Skill): It is a Tier 4 Elemental Magic. As long as there are wind, fire, water, earth and wood elements in the surroundings, it can form a Crystal Mirror Magic Array. This skill only consumes Mana Points and has no cooldown time.]
Skill Effect: The magic array absorbs one of the five elements, wind, fire, water, earth, and wood, according to the user’s elemental affinity. The magic array is directly condensed into a magic crystal mirror.
The magic crystal mirror had a certain degree of defense against both physical and magical attacks from the enemy. When the user took the initiative to release the magic array, it would release a one-way elemental explosive strike through the interaction of magic elements.
Skill Requirements: The size of the magic crystal mirror and the power of elemental explosive attacks are determined by the magic power provided to the magic array by the user. “The basic cost of forming a magic array is 50 magic units. The learning requirement is 200 magic units.”
Qin Lun’s heart skipped a beat. The magic skill of this crystal mirror array reminded him of the hexagonal prism shield he had sold. The two functions were similar. Although one was a defensive shield and the other was a magical skill, apart from defense, both of them also had the ability to counterattack.
Of course, from a purely defensive point of view, the Magic Crystal Mirror was currently incomparable to the Hexagonal Prism Shield. After all, using it required 50 Mana Points or Energy Points. Moreover, judging from its level, it could only defend against attacks below Level 4. With Qin Lun’s current 165 HP, he could only defend against three attacks, which was incomparable to the Dark Gold Shield.
However, the applicability of this magic skill was excellent. Regardless of whether it was the high-tech world or the magical world, it was hard to imagine that there was not even a single natural element. Unless it was in a vacuum, this simple magic array could be used in all mission worlds.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Japanese girl, this was just a relatively low-level defensive skill. However, Qin Lun was keenly aware of the true value of this magic skill. The mages who created this magic array were most likely not aiming at defensive considerations …
These thoughts flashed through Qin Lun’s mind, but he didn’t express his thoughts on his face.
“This scroll should be a special treasure you obtained in a mission world, right?” Qin Lun blinked his eyes and asked calmly.
The special treasures produced in the quest world were different from the skills of Samsara. The former could be used directly by the apostles, while the latter required Qin Lun to pay a certain price for the shattered starry sky to dispel the superstring laws given to the scroll by the superstring space.
“Yes, yes!” Junko nodded. To her, there was nothing to hide.
“If that’s the case, I’ll use a special treasure to exchange for it with you!” Qin Lun smiled and took out the World Tree Flower Dew from his storage space. “Apart from healing bandages, I’ll give you another half bottle of World Tree Flower Dew!”
Yoshida Junko looked at the projection of the World Tree Dew and a trace of surprise flashed across his face.
“Such a small bottle, half a bottle only has about five drops. Its value is incomparable to a scroll!” Junzi licked his dried lips and said with a dissatisfied expression.
‘”Haha, don’t be too greedy. The World Tree Dew is different from ordinary recovery items. With your current state, only the World Tree Dew can make up for the weakness caused by massive blood loss and allow you to quickly recover your combat strength.” Qin Lun smiled and shook his head. “Your mission time is limited. The sooner you recover, the harvest you will get in the later stages.”
The Japanese girl fell silent for a moment, and a look of struggle appeared on her face. In the end, after the two of them bargained, Qin Lun used a healing bandage and seven drops of World Tree Dew to exchange for the crystal mirror magic array scroll.
Qin Lun put away the formation scroll satisfactorily. This item required 200 points of magic power to learn. He only had 165 Energy Points, so he couldn’t use them for the time being. It was probably because of this that Yoshida Junko did not use the scroll. After all, at this stage of their strength, an additional defensive equipment or skill was equivalent to an extra life. If they could use it, they wouldn’t have to use it.
Junko Yoshida immediately used a healing bandage after the transaction was completed. Qin Lun could also clearly see the wound on her abdomen. This was a knife wound that was nearly twenty centimeters long, almost laparotomying the Japanese girl on the spot. No wonder Samsara’s body was unable to stop bleeding and heal itself. It could only use ordinary recovery medicines to delay the time of death.
The World Tree Flower Dew was indeed far superior to ordinary recovery medicines in terms of replenishing vitality. Just three drops of the Flower Dew caused a trace of blood to appear on the face of the Japanese girl who had lost a large amount of blood.
“Alright, now it’s time to show me your mission list!” Qin Lun waited for Junko Yoshida to finish all of this before returning to the final part of the deal.
The Japanese girl looked at the youth and muttered in a low voice. She reluctantly displayed her mission list. Although she was still skeptical that Qin Lun wanted to see the quest list, action was the best proof.
If he wanted to kill her, Qin Lun would not have waited for her to recover. After the deal was completed, the youth would have directly attacked.
“Camp mission!” Looking at Yoshida Junko’s mission list, Kieran’s pupils shrank.
In Pure Child’s mission list, there was another faction mission in addition to the original main mission and side mission. As a Samsara of the ghost race, Yoshida Shunzi’s mission was to fight and kill the Samsara of the Illusory Demon Camp.
No wonder the Japanese girl was so nervous just now. Although Qin Lun was on the same team as her when she first entered the Illusory Demon World, it couldn’t be ruled out that the youth had joined the Illusory Demon Alliance halfway.
This faction had requirements for participating in missions. Apart from the level of Samsara, there were also requirements for the mission area. In short, newbies and reincarnators who did not enter specific areas were unable to carry out camp missions. The Illusory Demon Base beneath their feet was precisely one of the areas that the camp was hunting!
“Apostle 70053, the reincarnation information you obtained satisfies the hunting terms of the apostle contract and triggers the death hunting mission.”
[Death Hunt: According to the hunting terms of the apostle contract, the Broken Universe will reward the apostle for actively hunting Samsara. This reward precedes other quests and takes precedence only over the Nucleus of Space and Time quests. The reward will be calculated on return based on the number and level of Samsara killed.]
[Reminder: Apostle 70053’s information on Samsara will be released to all the apostles in the Illusory Demon World. The currently identified hunting area is the Illusory Demon Undersea Shrine. As the recipient of this information, Apostle 70053 will increase the mission evaluation by one rank upon his return.]
“Death Hunt” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up, and the corner of his mouth revealed a hint of Mo Ming.
If he was only suspicious when he first entered the Illusory Demon World, then the current situation was very obvious. There was indeed a certain relationship between the shattered starry sky and the superstring space. According to the current intelligence, at least the shattered starry sky was not friendly to the superstring space.
“I’m almost free to move. You … should we move together?” Yoshida Junko’s expression became much better as he looked at Qin Lun with anticipation.
“Oh … what do you plan to do next?” Qin Lun recovered from his thoughts and asked with a smile. A cold light flashed in the depths of Yoshida Junko’s pupils.
If he didn’t have a strong desire to kill the Japanese girl before, then after the death hunt mission, he finally had a hint of an idea. With Qin Lun’s personality, he wasn’t as interested in killing as Joey. Of course, if the Japanese girl was useless, he might bury a hole in her.
“This is a large-scale underwater shrine and an important base for the Illusory Demons. Before entering the Illusory Demon World, Matthew paid a great price for a copy of the Illusory Demon Wind Record. This is also the most important reason why we broke through to this place so quickly. However …” Junzi said bitterly.
“It’s just that you didn’t expect the Illusory Demon World to have a faction confrontation mission!” Qin Lun smiled faintly and immediately understood.
The strength of Matthew and the others wasn’t high. The only reason they were able to break through to this point was because they had made a lot of targeted preparations. This also benefited Qin Lun greatly. If it weren’t for the fact that these Samsara cultivators had cleaned up the traps in the maze, he wouldn’t have been able to follow behind and enter this place.
With Qin Lun’s battle prowess, aside from the first core of time and space, the rest of the harvest was mostly due to rational judgement. Of course, there were also some lucky ones.
“How did you get hurt? Where are your other companions now?” Qin Lun asked gently with a smile on his face.
After the transaction was completed, the Japanese girl’s mood relaxed more than half. She sighed and told the story of the three of them. Apart from Matthew and the others, the other three rookies’ encounters were similar to Qin Lun’s previous speculation.
However, Yoshida Junko’s injuries weren’t caused by reincarnations from other camps. Instead, they encountered Illusory Demon Guards here. The stone door on the other side of the aisle was guarded by two light bowed feet and two dark crows.
(Dark Crow: Ninja Transformed Illusory Demon.)
Although Matthew and the others had dealt with the four Illusory Demons, they had paid a considerable price under the restriction of the terrain. Among them, Yoshida Junko was the most seriously injured, so he had no choice but to stay here and wait for Matthew and the others.
Their Illusory Demon Pearl had already satisfied the first main mission, but Yoshida Junko’s injuries would definitely not wait for seven days. The only hope for a quick return was for Matthew and the other two to complete their second main mission and gain 1000 points of camp reputation.
“We are too careless. Even if we have the map information of the Illusory Demon Wind Record, we shouldn’t have entered this Illusory Demon Base!” Junko smiled bitterly. “Although the Illusory Demons invaded Paris and took away most of the Illusory Demon Guards, there were still a lot of Illusory Demons guarding the Underwater Temple.”
“So, you haven’t encountered the Samsara cultivators of the other factions yet?” Qin Lun narrowed his eyes.
