The Death List Novel - Chapter 20
Chapter 20 Investments In Mafa
“Have you already felt the rejection of the Broken Star System?” Malfoy did not conceal the surprise on his face. He looked at Qin Lun with a burning gaze, “Are you sure?”
“Yes, it suits the exclusion mentioned by the academy.” Qin Lun smiled and said, “Originally, I wanted to leave quietly. However, I have been under your care for half a month. Before leaving the Forest of Moonlight, I think I should inform you.”
Although preparatory apostles like Qin Lun had entered the Moonlight Forest, Floating City did not restrict their freedom. This was also to dispel the apostles’ concerns about entering the alien world safely. In any case, the time flow between the alien realm and the shattered starry sky was different. Normally, after the apostle underwent an alien mission, the shattered starry sky only lasted a few hours and did not affect the itinerary of the floating city.
“Your choice is correct.” Malfoy’s eyes lit up and his expression was a little hesitant. However, he quickly gritted his teeth as if he had made a major decision. “Qin Lun, please wait a moment. I’ll be back soon!”
Malfoy hurriedly left the hall and left Qin Lun alone at the headquarters of the Internal Affairs Department.
Qin Lun smiled knowingly and turned to look at the hall of the internal affairs tower in the east of the forest. The layout of the hall was simple, and the four walls were covered with emerald green vines. Most of the items were wooden, and there were very few bright metallic utensils. However, most of these items were carefully carved, filled with an artistic aura, and had the elegant taste of the elves.
Malfoy came and went very quickly. When he returned, he had a package in his hand and handed it to Qin Lun with a serious expression.
“The Moonlight Forest’s help to the apostles is basically based on the principle of equal exchange. This is also the iron law of all intelligent races in the Broken Star System. As the Moonlight Forest’s Internal Affairs Officer, I cannot allow the city to provide you with additional help in violation of the rules of the floating city. However, I can gift you my belongings as a friend!”
Qin Lun’s eyes lit up as he accepted the package. He smiled and said, “I need another motorcycle!”
“It’s already parked at the exit of the forest!” Malfoy smiled comprehensively.
“Elder Malfoy, do you really think so highly of the potential of this preparatory apostle? Even if he already possesses a soul mark, the probability of passing the first alien mission will not exceed one-third.” After Qin Lun left, an elven guard approached Malfoy Moria and asked softly.
“He only entered the Broken Star Sky for half a month. He received an alien mission in half a month. Do you know what this means?” Malfoy calmly asked himself, “This means that as long as he develops smoothly, he will be able to reach an unimaginable height in just a few short years. His growth rate is more than ten times faster than those apostles who have only received an alien mission once every six months …”
At the exit of the forest, Qin Lun saw a brand-new four-wheeled motorcycle parked in front of the plant corridor. The locomotive is black as a whole, making it easy to hide. Although the elves didn’t like to use high-tech in floating cities, the motorcycle was quite high-tech. It even carried the terrain navigation system of the Red Gobi Continent.
Perhaps because some preparatory apostles do not necessarily know how to drive a locomotive, which also has an autopilot system. Qin Lun threw the parcel Malfoy gave him into the car, happily sat in the car, clicked on the automatic navigation, and drove along the bottom exit of the floating city into the red Gobi.
After switching to autopilot mode, Qin Lun took the package and opened it. His eyes immediately lit up. Inside the parcel was a small, emerald-green crossbow. This crossbow was somewhat similar to Malfoy’s family heirloom. However, Malfoy’s family heirloom was a real crossbow that used crossbows, but this crossbow didn’t carry any crossbows.
Qin Lun carefully inspected the crossbow and discovered that the crossbow was using the wind arrow. Beneath the crossbow was a finger trigger. There was no bowstring, and the bird’s wing-shaped bow arm was fan-shaped. There was an arc-shaped crack in the front of the bow arm. A small magic crystal stone was placed in the back of the crossbow. As the trigger was pulled, a crescent-shaped wind blade would be spat out from the arc crack in the bow arm.
The crossbow was very light. Qin Lun tried firing a few wind blades at the big rock beside the road. He found that the power of the wind blades was not bad. Each wind blade left a deep mark on the rock. Green light flashed across the surface of the crossbow from time to time, as if it had its own soul.
Qin Lun sighed slightly. When he came into contact with Malfoy’s family heirloom, he had a feeling that it was a spiritual equipment. Now that he saw the crossbow he had given him, he was even more certain of his original guess.
Apart from the crossbow, there was also a letter from Malfoy, three walnut-sized tree seeds, and a thumb-sized crystal bottle. The crystal bottle contained a dense jade-green liquid. When the bottle cork was pulled out, a dense aura of vegetation assaulted one’s nose, causing one to feel refreshed, and one’s entire body was brimming with vitality.
Malfoy said in the letter that the crossbow had a “Wind Spirit Crossbow” and that the jade-green liquid was “World Tree Dew”. This is a very precious water of life, can provide a rich vitality to organisms, greatly enhance immunity and resilience, any disease and injury has a very good curative effect.
The other three seeds were vine seeds. As long as Qin Lun wiped the seeds with his own blood, he would be able to control them.
When he encountered an irresistible danger, he threw the tree seed onto the ground and activated it with his will. A three-meter-long vine treant would appear, capable of blocking the pursuit of his master. However, this kind of vine treant landed on the ground and germinated, unable to move. Moreover, the energy within the tree seed was only enough for it to move for about an hour, so it could only be considered a low-level cannon fodder soldier.
Of these three items, the Wind Spirit Crossbow was a type of spiritual equipment, while the World Tree Dew and the Tree Vine Seed were special treasures that possessed the Laws of the World. They could all be brought into another world by the apostles through the teleportation portal. However, not every alien world could use three things. It required that the alien world also had the laws of the world that corresponded to the basis for using treasures.
Even so, for Qin Lun, who was only preparing to become an apostle, the favor Malfoy had given him was extremely heavy, and it would be a bit difficult for him to survive in the future.
Driving his motorcycle, Qin Lun left the Moonlight Forest for about half an hour before heading towards a cliff in the Gobi Desert. After arriving at the bottom of the cliff and hiding the motorcycle in the shadows, he walked towards a rocky cliff on foot.
This kind of locomotive was too conspicuous. Although it was already hidden, it was hard to guarantee that it would not be discovered. It would be troublesome if anyone realized that this was an apostle who had entered the alien realm and had yet to return, and set up an ambush around the motorcycle. If it was the mountain peak on the opposite cliff, they would not be caught off guard, and they would be able to see the situation around the motorcycle from above.
When he reached the top of the cliff, Qin Lun sat down cross-legged and put the crossbow and three tree seeds into his storage space. He emptied his mind of all thoughts and quietly waited for the next time the space-time rejection of the shattered starry sky occurred.
Against the blazing sun of the scarlet Gobi Desert, on a rocky cliff with a steep terrain, a fair-faced youth sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest. Beads of sweat rolled down the young man’s forehead. However, the expression on his face was as if he could not feel the scorching heat, and he still had a smile of satisfaction on his face.
Suddenly, a string of lightning flashed in front of the young man. A person-tall teleportation gate appeared out of thin air, like an oval-shaped azure vertical eye, swallowing the young man in one mouthful. Afterwards, the teleportation gate seemed to have been zipped up, disappearing from the cliff top. A small whirlwind appeared on the spot, completely annihilating the traces of the youth’s existence.
“This is the first time the apostle has teleported into another world. Laws of Fragmentation activated …”
“… Law of Fragmentation 831, Apostle obtains vacancy number 70053 …”
[Fragmentary Universe and Apostle 70053 enter into the following covenants:
1. The apostle completes the contractual mission, shatters the starry sky to see the completion of the mission, pays the apostle the full reward, and maintains and repairs the apostle’s longevity soul.
2. The World Essence obtained by the apostle during the mission shall be handed over according to the mission rating. Surplus World Essence may be exchanged for equipment, skills, and bloodlines from the Broken Star System. The exchange list is the Laws of the Broken Universe (including all Laws surrendered by the apostles and Laws of Strength possessed by the native races).
3. The apostles shall not violate the confidentiality rules relating to the Broken Contract, including all Otherworldly Quests, Otherworldly Laws, and their own adventures … They shall not disclose any information to the native races of any interface, or to the unnumbered apostles (including the native races of the Broken Star System).
4. When the apostle’s own strength reaches a certain level, the Broken Star System will open up the Apostle Profession Advancement Laws.
5. Every time an apostle completes an alien mission, they will receive contribution points from the Laws of Fragmentation. Contribution points are related to the apostle’s title and Lu Jue’s advancement.
…
The specific terms of the above contract will be explained in detail after the apostles have undergone their first trip to another realm and completed the corresponding mission to another realm!
