The Death List Novel - Chapter 184
Chapter 184 Trap
Walking downstairs, Qin Lun and the other two murderers looked at each other with smiles on their faces. Not only did Qin Lun’s appearance change, Hansen and Hill also had significant changes in their appearances.
Hansen grew taller and taller, his forehead bulging, his nose caved in, and thick purple-brown cheeks appeared on his temples and cheeks. The back of his shirt was covered in brown hair, as if he had instantly degenerated from a human to an ape.
There were many ape bloodlines on the exchange list of the Broken Universe. Among them, three high-grade apes had purple-brown fur, Diamond Ape, Primordial Magic Ape, and Herculean Ape. Amongst the three, the Diamond Ape was strong and had the strongest defense. Primordial Magic Apes and Herculean Divine Apes would have high-grade bloodline divine abilities when their bloodlines were dense to a certain extent, equivalent to [S] class apostle skills.
Although Hill still maintained his human appearance, ripples of water occasionally flashed across his skin, as if his entire body was constructed from water elements. This was undoubtedly a water elemental bloodline that belonged to the Natural Element.
When the bloodline ability of a Nature Element reached a higher level, it would even affect geography and astronomical phenomena. This showed how powerful it was. In fact, Mrs. Monica, the Queen of Sandstorms that Qin Lun had witnessed before, had yet to reach the high-grade Sandstorm bloodline. Otherwise, she alone would have been enough to destroy the Allied Armored Trains.
“Sir Hansen, Mr. Hill, should we fulfill our agreement now?” Seeing the obvious changes in the three murderers, Sass’s attitude unconsciously eased a lot. He did not show any signs of superiority, but his face still maintained its usual arrogance.
“Of course, as you wish!” Hill happily took out a large purple shield from his storage space and handed it to Sass with a short emerald-green jade staff.
Qin Lun lowered his head and his pupils instantly turned into clockwork. The two hands on the clock jumped slightly, glanced at the purple shield and the emerald short staff, and then returned to the Blue Eye of the Moonlight Fairy. His pupils only changed for an instant. Even if others noticed, they would probably treat it as a blur.
That staff was actually dark gold quality! Qin Lun’s heart skipped a beat. The two of them had invested too much. Could it be that the Sass couple possessed a powerful trump card and could play a huge role in the upcoming unknown battle?
“In that case, we’re even! I’ve already sent the rest of the remuneration to you through the guild channel. Please check it out!” Receiving the purple shield and emerald-green staff, a smile appeared on Sass’s sea-blue face as he gave Hill a rare salute. His wife Cora’s cheeks flushed with excitement after she received the emerald-green staff.
“It’s fine, I believe in your credit!” Hill smiled and said, “Then, please take care of us!”
“Don’t worry, with this Martial Monk Shield and the Azure Parrot Staff, we can deal with a team of five with just the two of us!” Sass waved his purple shield a few times and said with high spirits.
“Sass!” Cora glanced at her husband, seemingly blaming him for being too full of words. She smiled reservedly and said, “Of course, we still need everyone to unite and cooperate with us!”
“Of course, of course!” Hill and Hansen exchanged glances and revealed a knowing smile.
Although the Sass couple looked down on Earth, they didn’t blow the whistle this time. This purple shield was wide and narrow. It was a large tower shield with six chisels. As long as Sass, who was 2.2 meters tall, was slightly shorter, he would be able to cover him tightly.
Sass was a patrol officer on Esmira, and he had extensive experience in riot control. He was very familiar with large riot shields. When he first entered the Shattered Star System, he had mastered large shields (Intermediate Skills). Now, he had upgraded to Advanced Specialization Skills, and had obtained specialized Shield Attack and Stomp Control Skills.
After taking this shield, Sass had indeed become a qualified party MT. His wife, Cora, was an auxiliary magic policeman when she was on Planet Esmira. After a long period of work and training, his mana was abundant. Currently, his mana was more than 2,000, almost four times that of Qin Lun.
After obtaining the Dark Gold-quality Jade Parrot Staff, Cora was already considered a small turret. Adding on the fact that the couple shared the same thoughts and tacit understanding, it was definitely not bragging to say that they would be able to resist the next five-man team in a short period of time. Of course, the premise was that the guild was about the same level as them, so they couldn’t have high-level apostles!
Qin Lun looked on coldly with a charming smile on his face. Looking at the flirtatious Hansen and Hill, their hearts became even more vigilant. Hansen was fierce and brutal, Hill was cunning and shameless. Together, the two of them were simply an invincible pair.
Should we find a partner to fight them in the future? Qin Lun rubbed his chin and subconsciously thought of Grant, the clown, as if he had little choice.
However, the clown had the bloodline of a parasitic virus, and he was the strongest MT candidate among the four Killer Devils, while he was the strongest ranged attacker. The clown was thick and thin. He had a crazy side. He had an extraordinary IQ and Joey’s berserk temperament.
In addition, the clown was inferior and ugly, pursuing a beautiful appearance. After Qin Lun obtained the elven bloodline, he was elegant and handsome. He also had Joey’s “artistic talent”. Could it be that this was an artist combination of a beautiful man and a wild beast?
Thinking of this, Qin Lun shuddered and subconsciously stopped thinking about it.
“Cough cough, where are we going now?” Qin Lun asked absent-mindedly.
“We are currently in the suburbs of Crystal Lake. Let’s go to the local police station to gather some mission information first! If necessary, we will personally go to Crystal Lake to investigate!” After Sass obtained the shield, his confidence increased and his attitude became much more positive.
“En, then there’s no need to delay. We’ll set off now!” The nominal Guild Leader Hill waved his hand and took the lead in getting on the car.
Regardless of their brains and intelligence, the Susses are policemen after all. For a murder like the “Crystal Lake Mystery”, they had a lot of say, so they should be allowed to temporarily lead the team’s direction of action.
“Woo ~ ~ ~” With the light sound of the engine, the black off-road vehicle followed a silver car in front of it and drove out of the villa.
“Yi, I didn’t expect this kind of antique to be as stable as a maglev car!” Hill closed his eyes and felt it for a moment. He was immediately shocked and said, “Hansen, why are you driving this antique from hundreds of years ago?”
“Hmph, I’m different from the two of you. When I was a mercenary in Africa, I drove cars older than this!” Hansen snorted coldly and said confidently, “As long as you give me enough parts, I can make it by myself. Of course, that doesn’t include in-car electronics.”
“By the way, do you two have something to say to me?” Qin Lun suddenly stopped smiling and looked at Hill and Hansen indifferently.
“Haha, even if we don’t say it, I think you should have guessed most of it!” Hill said with a bitter smile.
“The two of us are not like you. Sitting at home, there are two opposing intelligent races, the Elves and the Abyss Devils.” Hansen said jealously, “We can only earn some extra money through some’hunting entertainment ‘to ease the nervousness brought about by the mission world!”
Just as Qin Lun was jealous of Hill and Hansen’s “hunting harvest”, Hansen and Hill were also jealous of Qin Lun’s “free harvest”. However, everyone knew that the other party’s method was very difficult to use on them, so they could only walk towards the sky and walk to one side.
Qin Lun urged expressionlessly, “Hunting for entertainment? Continue …”
“Race management is the territory of the Horn of the Abyss. We can’t move. However, Hansen and I have discovered that there are many beginner apostles in the apostle city who seem to lose most of their vigilance after returning from the mission world …”
Hill paused for a moment before continuing, “Originally, our target was only the scattered beginner apostles. However, later on, they were of bloodline and changed professions. Their needs were too great, and they were too poor … That’s why Hansen and I hunted a complete black iron team after the return of the last world!”
“Cough cough, you, you” Qin Lun looked at the shameless priest with an innocent expression and almost choked on himself.
Just now, Sass was boasting that his husband and wife could contend against a five-man team, but they were still successful professional apostles after all. The two in front of Qin Lun were still junior apostles who had yet to change their profession, yet they dared to kill a complete black iron team like a turkey.
Even with Qin Lun’s indifference, he couldn’t help but be shocked by such boldness and madness.
“This kind of sneak attack … is actually easier than you think. Are you interested in coming with us next time?” Hansen turned his head and asked calmly. The flames in his pupils were burning like crazy, as if they could burn everything in front of him.
“Have you ever thought about the consequences? There are still trials and prisons in the Federation of Earth. The Horn of the Devil is only different between the living and the dead!” Qin Lun was silent for a while before he said, “Keep walking on the edge of the cliff. One day, you will fall off the cliff!”
“As long as we’re strong enough, we can still crawl back!” Hansen stared unyieldingly at Qin Lun.
“Alright, alright, stop arguing and continue with the topic we were talking about!” ‘”Actually, Hansen was right. From the looks of it, this hunt went very smoothly! The other party was completely annihilated, and we were confident that we had cleared all traces of it afterwards!” Hill explained with a smile.
“And then?” Qin Lun sighed and asked.
“Then … you’re right, we fell off the cliff!” Hill helplessly spread out his hands, “We didn’t expect that one of the members of this guild would have a brother, and a stronger guild under his wing!”
“How do you know that person’s subordinate is a stronger guild!” Qin Lun changed his mind and found something that Hill didn’t say.
‘”Because one of the equipment we obtained was not made in the mission world, but was personally made by that person for his younger brother, with a magical mark attached to it. If an apostle dares to cultivate a forging skill, the opponent should not be an ordinary small team!” Hill said with some seriousness, “As soon as we obtained this equipment, the other party quickly locked onto our Apostle Soul Seal through the magic seal!”
“I see!” A bolt of lightning flashed in Qin Lun’s eyes. “Is that equipment a shield or a staff …”
