The Death List Novel - Chapter 113
Chapter 113 Split
Pan Hu was a little surprised when he heard that Matthew only needed the Illusory Demon Pearl of Gadoludo to exchange for Lou Ying. However, he secretly let out a sigh of relief. On the contrary, Lou Ying’s face was filled with indignation.
Gaduludo was the Illusory Demon Boss of the Divine Sea Palace. Not only could his Illusory Demon Pearl be exchanged for many factions’ prestige, it was also related to the hidden storyline mission of this Illusory Demon Base. It was of great value to the reincarnation of the ghost race. However, compared to Lou Ying’s life, it was nothing.
Although the Rock Tiger was five big and three thick, this Samsara Cultivator was slightly thick. When he realized the danger, he didn’t turn around to save Lou Ying because he was already far away from Lou Ying. Speed had never been an MT’s specialty. Rather than giving up treasures and not being able to save his companions, it was better to snatch the treasures in exchange for their lives.
Originally, Rock Tiger was prepared to pay all of his harvests in exchange for Lou Ying’s survival. However, apart from the dark gold equipment that Matthew had already obtained, he only needed the Illusory Demon Pearl to give the black man a high look.
The DF space where Pan Hu and Matthew were in was a mature superstring space, and the principle of equivalent exchange was deeply rooted in people’s hearts. In fact, as long as there were no opposing slaughter missions among high-level Samsara cultivators, they were generally unwilling to form a death grudge with their opponents.
High-ranked Samsara cultivators had extremely rich means of surviving. As long as they didn’t die, they would have a chance to turn around sooner or later. No one dared to say that they would be able to annihilate their opponents. It wasn’t a pity that he would be killed if he had a death grudge against too many people, and it would even implicate the entire guild. Normally, after the battle ended, more Samsara would use the equipment redemption mode to protect their companions’ lives.
Logically speaking, Lou Ying had fallen into Joe’s hands now, so even if Matthew wanted all of his gains, it wouldn’t be too much. However, the big black man only needed one Dark Gold and one Quest Item, which was equivalent to giving the big portion of the harvest to Pan Hu and Lou Ying.
Matthew’s strategy was actually correct. There was nothing wrong with the principle of equivalent exchange, but this rule had to be on the same scale. Pan Hu and Lou Ying’s Windfiend Group were veteran Samsara teams, and their strength was not something that the temporary team of Matthew and Lou Ying could compare to.
Why was Lou Ying silent at the beginning, willing to admit defeat and lower his head, but when he heard that Matthew only wanted the Illusory Demon Pearl, he became indignant instead? The reason was very simple. Matthew was too tactful. If it was just this result, the Wind Demon Group would not have paid a high price to chase after Matthew and the others for the sake of Lou Ying’s personal face.
“No!” Just as everyone, including Qin Lun, thought that the dust had settled, a discordant voice sounded from the center of the arena.
“Matthew, Samsara is not afraid of life and death. You are afraid of a Wind Demon Group like this. How can you come out and be the boss!” Joe hid behind Lou Ying and said gloomily, “Hehe, I won’t sign such a contract!”
Joyce’s words blew across the square like a cold wind, causing everyone to be slightly stunned. With the hostage in his hands, he did have the right to speak, but … was this guy an idiot?
No, this fellow can pretend to be dead until everyone is completely unaware of it. With such good endurance, he shouldn’t have grown a pig brain. In that case … he has other reasons to rely on.
Rock Tiger looked at Matthew strangely. No matter what, Joe raised an objection at this moment. The first thing he did was to provoke Matthew’s authority. He didn’t need to rush to speak.
Lou Ying sneered. The more Joe crossed the line, the happier he would be. If the Wind Demon Group chased after Matthew and the others, he would definitely be laughed at by his teammates. Perhaps he would have to pay some chasing fees. However, as long as he could wash away the current humiliation, he was willing to pay a price.
“Joe, what do you mean?” Junko shouted angrily on the guild channel.
“Hehe, what do you mean? I took the biggest risk in front of me and gained the least. Now, I’m risking being trampled to death by the Illusory Demon Boss. Is it wrong to ask for more?” Joe sneered.
“Joyce, the Wind Demon Group is very strong. We don’t have the strength to fight against them. The agreement cannot be changed. The Dark Gold equipment just now belongs to you. How about we split it like this?” Matthew’s face was as heavy as water, and his expression did not show his joy or anger. He slowly said, “Junko, do you agree?”
“I … have no problem!” Yoshida Junko hesitated for a moment, but in the end, his gaze darkened and he agreed.
As a female Samsara with average talent, she would sometimes suffer a disadvantage. The Japanese girl had a hard time in the rookie stage, just like a stray dog. Now that she finally had a guild, even if she had only formed a temporary guild of two worlds, she was still unwilling to give up.
“If that’s the case, then I have no problem!” Joe snickered and agreed.
Ignoring the Illusory Demon Pearl from Garuda, there were only two Dark Gold equipment and three unidentified items. Since there were already two pieces of Dark Gold, the probability of Legendary Equipment appearing again was very low.
If those three unappraised items were materials, if they were Dark Gold grade or below, they were not worth fighting for with all their lives. Even if Pan Hu handed over all of his harvests, he could only obtain one Dark Gold at most. As for the Illusory Demon Pearl’s mission rewards and reputation points, the entire guild would have them. There was no need to count them separately.
“Have you discussed it?” Pan Hu patiently waited for a while before speaking indifferently.
“Lord Pan Hu, we’ve already discussed it. Let’s follow my suggestion and sign the soul contract!” Matthew bowed gracefully and said with a smile, “According to the soul agreement, we guarantee that Lord Lou Ying will be released after the Illusory Demon Pearl is in our possession, and the members of the Wind Demon Group in the Illusory Demon World will no longer be able to take revenge on us in any form!”
…
“I’m looking forward to your next performance!” After the transaction was completed, Pan Hu swept a meaningful glance at Matthew and quickly left with Ying on his back.
Although Lou Ying’s face was ashen, he did not threaten Matthew and the others. To threaten after escaping was equivalent to the roar of a bereaved dog. He had already lost face and could not afford to lose the dignity of the Windfiend Group. Moreover, he and Pan Hu still had a chance to retaliate in the future. Of course, they could only rely on themselves.
“Hehe, Charcoal Head, should we hide first?” Just as he left the ship building room, Lou Ying suddenly put away his ugly expression and asked with a smile.
“Are you filled with dog shit? The most important thing now is to rush over to the boss. It doesn’t matter if the three of them fight or not. Our own troubles aren’t over yet!” Pan Hu staggered under his feet and roared angrily.
“Got it, got it! Using the Yellow Dragon Mirror, you actually lost a dark gold and a large amount of mission reputation. This time, the boss will definitely curse us to death!” Lou Ying waved his hand with a sad face.
…
‘”Hehe, Boss Matthew, you and I will each take half of the credit for calculating Lou Ying and Pan Hu this time. However, there is only one Dark Gold equipment that everyone wants. Don’t blame me. Besides, you have also obtained bloodline items before, so we are even. You and I will each offer 10,000 credits to compensate Junko. What do you think?”
As Lou Ying and Pan Hu left, the atmosphere in the pier square became weird. Joe licked his lips and smiled dryly at Matthew and Junko Yoshida.
Although the three of them were veterans, there was still a huge gap between them and a true profession-changing expert like Pan Hu. They had just passed the rookie stage and had only experienced three or four mission worlds. Under normal circumstances, with their strength, it would be very difficult for them to obtain dark gold equipment. Even if they had gathered the strength of their guilds to obtain a Dark Gold equipment, they would usually sell it for a cent.
In fact, Matthew had contributed a lot to their success in the Illusory Demon World. Even if they had some luck, preparing the Illusory Demon Wind Record and designing the building to win were all part of their strength. This was also the main reason why Pan Hu and Lou Ying admitted defeat in the end.
Joyce wasn’t willing to fight with his two teammates, especially since he was still in the quest world. This suggestion was actually trying to woo the Japanese girl, suggesting that Matthew had already obtained the bloodline item and reminding her to stand with him. However, compared to the value of dark gold equipment and bloodline items, a mere 20,000 credits was a bit shabby.
Credit points, the virtual currency used by reincarnators, were slightly less valuable than broken crystals. 100,000 credit points was roughly equivalent to 75,000 broken crystals. An ordinary Dark Gold equipment was worth 50,000 broken crystals. The Dark Gold equipment produced by the Illusory Demon BOSS was even higher. It was worth at least 75,000 broken crystals, or 100,000 Credit Points.
However, Joe couldn’t do anything about it. A Samsara like him didn’t have any surplus wealth, so taking out 10,000 credits was already the limit.
“Matthew, how dare you” However, just as Joe finished speaking, he realized that he had been kicked out of the temporary team by Matthew, causing him to be both shocked and furious.
The three of them were temporary guilds formed by using temporary guild contracts. The guild authority was basically in Matthew’s hands, so there was no need to discuss kicking people.
“Why don’t I dare” Matthew sneered and took out an injection from his bosom and inserted it into his own carotid artery.
“Genetic medicine, you actually used it directly in the mission world!” Joel’s expression changed when he saw Matthew’s movements.
No matter how complete a bloodline item was, it still had a chance of failure. The chance of failure for the low-grade Illusory Demon Genetic Medicine they obtained was 25%, or one-fourth. Using bloodline items in the quest world was simply impossible to obtain the help of the superstring space. Once the fusion failed, there was a certain chance that the Laws body would collapse. Matthew was gambling his life.
Without any hesitation, Matthew pushed the needle to the end. Then, he flipped his hand again. His right hand gripped Xiaodao tightly and slashed hard on his left chest, causing blood to splatter everywhere.
Joel and Yoshida Junko’s doubts did not last for a few seconds. Matthew took out the Illusory Demon Pearl of Gaduludo, his eyes flashing with madness. His face twisted as he forcefully pressed the Illusory Demon Pearl into the wound on his left chest and pushed it towards his heart.
“Originally, you had already made this plan!” Joel’s face revealed a hint of realization.
Gaduludo was the Illusory Demon Boss of the Underwater Temple. No matter what type of Illusory Demon the gene potion Matthew obtained in the labyrinth room belonged to, it was basically the same as Gaduludo. With Gaduludo’s Illusory Demon Pearl, Matthew’s chances of successfully converting his bloodline would greatly increase.
Without hesitation, Joe turned around and ran to the other exit of the pier square. His strength wasn’t much different from Matthew’s, and he knew that he couldn’t deal with Matthew who had changed his Illusory Demon bloodline. If he didn’t escape now, he would be waiting to die.
Seeing this, Matthew’s expression darkened. He turned around and shouted, “Junko, stop him for 10 minutes!”
