The Death List Novel - Chapter 181
Chapter 181 The Truth
Qin Lun used only three mission worlds to complete the path of ten mission worlds for ordinary apostles. He touched the threshold of his profession and looked full of legend. However, he knew how many hidden dangers lay beneath the glorious surface.
In the case of equipment, the death list and the Evil Dagger were his own property, and the Knights Cross and the Battle Strength Apparatus were auxiliary equipment.
Especially the Knight Cross Medal. Although it had reached the Sub-Legendary level, some of its skills were sealed. 10% Body Attribute Enhancement was not very meaningful. His Laws and Body Foundation was too weak. Only when he became an Advanced Apostle would he be able to display true value.
Light and darkness mourning could satisfy the attack requirements, but only the leather boots and a Sabak ring, skin, trousers, wristbands, shawls, belts, shields, and other parts of the body were equipped. It was almost like running naked in the mission world.
As for the other ordinary apostles who had accumulated more than ten mission worlds, even if they wore a set of blue and purple equipment, they would also have their Law Body strengthened more than ten times. Combined health and defense, it was much thicker than him. In a way, life is more secure.
Qin Lun had already realized this problem after he entered the Illusory Demon World. Unfortunately, the Moon Night Fairy bloodline and the Hellfire Demon Dog had completely squeezed him out, and he had even taken on a debt of 100,000 broken crystals.
In terms of recovery items, before Qin Lun entered the mission world, he had spent more than 10,000 broken crystals and hundreds of exchange vouchers to buy recovery items.
However, this was clearly far from enough. A self-healing crystal would require 4,500 broken crystals or 450 exchange vouchers. An ordinary healing bandage would cost 2,000 broken crystals. Even an onion cereal cake would cost 1,000 broken crystals. How much could one buy with more than 10,000 broken crystals and hundreds of exchange vouchers?
In the orphan world, when he fought against the Maya witch, in terms of game terminology, the witch was already half crippled. He had only snatched a crippled blood monster from the hands of the exorcist. Even so, he might not be able to survive without the World Tree Dew that Malfoy had gifted him and the Holy Spirit Potion of the exorcist Holy Healing Master Totti.
In the Illusory Demon World, he had never fought any hard battles. Only in the previous world did he fight to the death with Professor Catherine, who had no equipment at all and had less than half of her usual combat strength.
Even so, Qin Lun only had one piece of Illusory Demon Tenderloin left. He ate all the other healing bandages, self-healing crystals, World Tree Dew, wheat pancakes, and so on. After the war, he even managed to return to Munich to receive medical treatment, which could be said to be using all available means of recovery.
With the current difficulty of the mission, he had to prepare 30,000 broken crystals and 1000 exchange vouchers for each mission world in order to barely survive two complete battles.
Imagine that if Qin Lun didn’t have the favor of the Fairy Race and the Abyss Devils, he wouldn’t be a shooter who mainly focused on long-range attacks. Then could he still touch the threshold of his profession in the three mission worlds and reach the current level?
This answer was readily available, but Qin Lun could still do it!
Because Shepherd Hill, Disciple Hansen, and Clown Grant had already done it. Apart from Shepherd Hill, Disciple Hansen and Clown Grant were mainly melee warriors. They needed more items and equipment to recover. There was no reason why Qin Lun couldn’t do it.
However, if Qin Lun wanted to learn from those murderers, he wouldn’t be able to use too gentle methods.
Who was Shepherd Hill? He was a perverted priest who ate human flesh! Who was disciple Hansen? He had been a boy mercenary since his youth, and when he grew up, he had countless souls under him. He was a professional assassin who called himself a Satan’s disciple!
They were able to kill without restraint in the Earth Federation, which had video projections all over the streets and alleys of the city, and even played cat and mouse games with the special forces of the Federation. After entering the Broken Star System and the Horn of the Abyss, would he be able to restrain himself?
Shepherd Hill sees his fellow shepherds as lambs in God’s sheepfold and boasts of stealing secretly. After entering the Horn of the Abyss, he saw so many different races and apostles, would he make up recipes for other flavors?
The Horn of the Abyss had tens of thousands of apostles and hundreds of groups of apostles. The most rewarding mission for the city mercenaries was always an assassination mission. Could Hansen, a disciple of a professional killer, restrain the killer’s instinctive desire?
Grant, the clown, was so paranoid about beautiful things that he didn’t hesitate to satisfy the victim’s request and sell his whereabouts clues to the police. He also had to use beautiful young boys and girls to make human skin masks. When he saw the more outstanding charming demons, Rakshasa girls, and elves, did he have any thoughts of repairing the human skin mask in his mind?
Jiang Shan could not change his nature! Back in the Moonlight Forest, the murderers still didn’t understand the shattered starry sky. The Moonlight Forest was fortunate enough to escape the calamity when the Moonlight Fairy encountered the apostle city’s council seat incident at that time and quickly moved a few murderers to the Devil’s Horn.
In comparison, the Horn of the Abyss was not so lucky. The few murderers had already stayed here for several months. Not only had they adapted to the life of the shattered starry sky, they also possessed medicines that could restore their HP, powerful apostle equipment, and combat skills.
Guess if they will cultivate and chant scriptures and become vegetarians from now on!
Compared to the orderly society of the earth federation, the apostle city that followed the law of the jungle-the Corner of the Abyss-was simply a paradise for prisoners and murderers.
The other murderers might not have the favor of investing in the elves and devils, but they had their own way of survival.
Shepherd Hill will deceive and clown Grant will rob. Disciple Hansen was even simpler. In the Earth Federation, he needed an employer. In the Corner of the Devil, he was his own employer.
Thinking about all of this, Qin Lun could easily discover Hill and Hansen’s true purpose in coming to him to form a team. Before receiving Kelly’s reminder, he could imagine that an inaugural mission could be completed without entering the mission world and directly in the shattered starry sky. Then wouldn’t Hill and Hansen have thought of that?
After ruling out the inaugural mission, could it be that Hill and Hansen really just wanted to form a team to adapt in advance and lay the foundation for their future cooperation? Isn’t it a bit too warm to imagine the relationship between these murderers? Playing around with each other depends on the target!
After stripping away these lies, there was only one truth left, and that was that the two murderers had run into real trouble. There was only one possibility in the Devil’s Corner that the two murderers would find it difficult to drag Qin Lun into the water.
They had provoked a powerful apostle group, and there should be an indissoluble blood feud mixed within! Only then did the two murderers give up on acting alone and form a team in advance to deal with the impending death battle.
Ordinary people were afraid that they wouldn’t be able to avoid this kind of trouble. Even if it were Grant the Clown and Rand the Fireworks, they would still be full of misgivings. Only Qin Lun, who had no survival goal, was different! With Qin Lun’s exuberant curiosity and interest in adventure, he definitely wouldn’t refuse such an exciting invitation.
Hill and Hansen came looking for Qin Lun confidently, knowing that he would jump in happily even if he had figured out the joints. Even the twenty thousand broken crystals were actually within their plans.
After all, Qin Lun is not a faithful man. You can use the way he likes to seduce him into jumping into a pit, but the price is indispensable! If it weren’t for the fact that the two murderers were really short of money, it wouldn’t be a problem for them to spend twenty to thirty thousand broken crystals each.
The next day, Qin Lun ran back to the auction house with a pair of panda eyes. The unknown danger made him excited all night, but … he couldn’t sleep!
Of course, Joey also contributed to this. During this period, under the pressure of the two personalities, they had many fantastic ideas.
For example, due to lack of funds, Qin Lun had thought of replacing armor directly with armor materials, but this idea had been overturned by Qin Lun himself. The armor’s defensive power was based on the Laws contained within the equipment, not the materials. Directly using the material as a defensive device, the effect was equivalent to that of a broken piece of iron.
After searching for some time in the auction house, Qin Lun was caught in a dilemma. He only had enough money to buy blue armor. Although he could buy purple armor, the remaining broken crystals were not enough to buy recovery items.
The blue armor’s defense was good, but it wasn’t suitable for jungle hunters. Increasing defense at the expense of evasion and mobility is not a good idea. As for the lighter blue leather armor and cloth armor, their defenses were too weak. Under the attacks of professional apostles, they were the same as if they weren’t.
In the end, Qin Lun gritted his teeth and spent 10,000 broken crystals to buy a Dark Gold grade flesh and blood puppet.
Seriously speaking, this flesh and blood puppet wasn’t a piece of equipment, but a consumable item. It can perfectly simulate the owner’s scent and appearance. From a physical point of view, there were practically no flaws, but they did not possess the defenses and abilities of the Laws Body.
Apart from being able to simulate the master under the apostle’s consciousness, the flesh puppet did not have any intelligence, and its actions depended entirely on the master’s consciousness. After the flesh puppet was exhausted by the enemy’s attacks, it would turn into a pile of rotten meat.
Although it had all sorts of shortcomings, with its powerful simulation ability, it could even conceal the apostles’ perception and detection skills. If used properly, it would be no less than a dark gold armor for a shooter.
After purchasing the flesh and blood puppet, the remaining 20,000 pieces of broken crystals and 1,000 exchange vouchers were all exchanged for recovery items, except for 3,000 pieces of broken crystals to deal with Cyberus’ possible injuries.
He received two high-grade healing bandages, a box of high-grade moonlight intermittent ointment, two self-healing crystals, a packet of carbon-based protein tablets, six onion cereal pancakes and a pot of high-grade royal jelly.
After nightfall, Hill and Hansen came to visit again. This time, they also brought two guests they had never met before! These were the remaining two members of the five-man team.
