The Death List Novel - Chapter 308

Chapter 308 A Feast Of Slaughter
After taking a shower, Qin Lun felt refreshed. He wore a hotel pajamas and lay on the sofa. He habitually held a goblet and slowly shook it. Although the TV was on, the young man’s attention was not on the local news in Yorkshire at all.

There were still about 30 hours before the auction. He had to complete the first step of the main mission before the auction officially started. Thinking of this, Qin Lun checked the contents of the mission on the death list word by word.

[Slaughter Banquet (Lieutenant-Lieutenant Colonel Rank): The world’s largest dream auction is about to open in York City. In the course of this auction, the Hunter World will have an important historical storyline node. In the plot of the play, there will be two opposing camps, both of which have many historical characters who have great influence on the Hunter World.]

[Mission Prerequisite: Join one of the factions! According to the current mission information, Hunter: Coolapika, the rest of the members are unknown. Thief: Phantom Brigade, the exact members are unknown.]

[Mission Tip: Join the Thief Party. Mission difficulty is at Lieutenant-level. Mission goal is not clear. Join the Hunter Party. Mission difficulty is at Lieutenant-Colonel level. Mission goal is not clear. After confirming the camp, the apostle will officially step into this historical node and receive the mission reward description.]

[Reminder: The apostles must choose to join a faction before the September 1 auction starts. Otherwise, the mission will be considered a failure. 30 Longevity Soul Points will be deducted and the upper limit of 15 Longevity Soul Points will be lowered. After the duration of stay is exhausted, there will be no mission evaluation.]

[Warning 1: Once you join a faction, your battle will be governed by the Laws of this world. For example, after confirming your membership in the Phantom Brigade, the Laws of this world will default to the apostles as members of the periphery of the brigade.]

[Warning 2: The apostles will be forcibly deducted 50 Longevity Soul Points and their maximum Longevity Soul Points will be lowered by 20.]

Although the main mission didn’t have any mission objectives, the prompt he had received had already aroused Qin Lun’s interest. The Hunter’s Association recognizes all members of the Phantom Brigade as S-class criminals, indicating that they have attained or are close to the peak level of martial power in the world.

For someone as curious as Qin Lun, it was a great temptation to experience S-class criminals and top-notch martial arts from another world.

By joining the hunters, he could personally fight against the so-called S-class criminals. However, he had to worry about the difference in difficulty between the two factions of the main mission.

The difficulty of the Lieutenant rank was acceptable, but the Lieutenant Colonel rank was a bit ridiculous. In terms of mission rankings in the World War II world, the colonel rank was equivalent to the strength of a third-grade apostle, while the lieutenant colonel rank indicated that the brigade members possessed the combat strength of mature high-grade apostles.

After the slaughter aura was converted into an incomplete psychic ability, Qin Lun’s melee and defensive abilities were greatly improved. The weakness of the jungle hunter profession had been made up for. With his current martial power, he was basically close to the level of a Second Grade apostle, but his skills weren’t enough, and his offensive and defensive systems weren’t complete enough.

The difference in strength between the apostles was the difference between heaven and earth, as evidenced by the battle for supremacy in the cities. Challenging beyond the realm was almost a reckless act that ignored life.

After becoming an apostle, Qin Lun saw the cruelty hidden behind the quest evaluation for the first time. Shattering the starry sky and the apostles were hired, and the absence of a mission evaluation meant that the apostle was of no value to the starry sky. Regardless of whether it was the longevity soul or the penalty deducted from the upper limit of the longevity soul, it was unbearable.

Even though Qin Lun would not be in danger if he gave up the main mission this time, the price of 80 Longevity Soul Points and 35 Longevity Soul Points was unacceptable to the youth. In a sense, he had to choose a faction in this historical node to take over the main mission.

There were many notifications for the main mission, but there were two aspects that puzzled Qin Lun, and he needed to analyze them thoroughly. One was about the difficulty of the quest after the faction had chosen it, and the other was about the first warning.

The difficulty of participating in the hunter’s mission was at the Lieutenant Colonel level, while the Thief’s was at the Lieutenant level. The deeper meaning was that the combat power of the Phantom Brigade could directly crush the hunters, including Coolapika.

However, the mission information also mentioned that the plot was a major historical node. Both sides had influential historical figures, and they deliberately used “many” to show that there was more than one person. This meant that none of these people had died in the past without the involvement of the apostles, and the Phantom Brigades had not had a real crushing effect.

With such a huge difference in strength and no overwhelming results, there were only two possibilities. One possibility was that the hunter had borrowed external forces, the other possibility was that during the plot, the hunter had suddenly exploded, and his own strength had changed accordingly.

However, due to the scarcity of information, Qin Lun’s current speculations were still unexplained.

Nion’s prophetic poem showed that the brigade’s goal was the auction, which was in line with their usual style. In this way, the Yin Beasts and the psychic abilities hired by the various gangster clans would naturally become an external force that the hunter could rely on.

Coolapika’s side of the hunters, perhaps because they were opposed to the brigade’s position, had caused a fierce collision. However, this point should have been in the calculation of the difficulty of shattering the starry sky a long time ago. In other words, if the Yin Beasts were tied together with the gang guards, they wouldn’t pose a great threat to the brigade.

The difficulty of the Lieutenant rank had already shown that the difference in strength between the two sides in the original history had excluded the Hunter from possessing a powerful help other than the Apostles.

Since there was no external force, it was because the Hunter’s own internal force had changed. Either the brigade had fallen into an elaborate trap, or the hunters had some sort of power to restrain the brigade. Or both!

Qin Lun never underestimated murderers or felons like himself. The brigade members were all S-class criminals, their IQ wasn’t too low, and there were thirteen of them.

Qin Lun believed that even if they fell into a huge trap, they should still be able to climb out and fight back. Moreover, the auction was now open and the brigade was dark, so it was not easy for them to fall for it.

Under such a situation, it was inevitable that the hunter side would suffer heavy losses in the early stages, and the brigade might not be able to escape unscathed.

The more he thought about it, the less Qin Lun liked Hunter Fang. If he accidentally joined this camp, he would become cannon fodder.

Intellectually, joining the brigade was a better choice. First, he had the identity of a Meteor Street thug. As long as he didn’t provoke the brigade and become their blocking stone, he should be able to escape unscathed.

The gangsters and hunters would not take him as their primary target. After avoiding the death battles between the two major factions, they could fish in troubled waters, and they were confident that they could complete the mission.

However, in this way, he would have to participate in the battle at the end of the plot. Everything that should have happened would have happened, and he would not be able to obtain too much.

This was Qin Lun’s thinking about the difficulty of the mission. If he analyzed the difficulty of the mission and found that there were still some traces to follow, then he would not be able to understand the contents of the first warning.

He didn’t know much about the warning that after joining the brigade, he would be restricted by the laws of the world in battle. The choice of camp was only an apostle’s mission. It would not expose his hostile tendencies, nor would it formally join the brigade. The content of this warning was extremely strange and incomprehensible.

“Bang bang bang bang!” Just as Qin Lun was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door.

The youth’s left pupils inadvertently flashed with a black and red ring target. The shock wave instantly penetrated through the door, outlining the figure outside the door, and then reflected back into his mind, forming a specific image.

“What is she doing here?” Qin Lun raised his eyebrows and muttered in surprise.

“Mr. Qin Lun, won’t you invite me in?” Fei Jie was wearing a low-chest sling skirt with a pair of flip-flops under her feet. She was holding a wine bottle in her left hand and a goblet in her right. She looked at Qin Lun lazily with a blurry expression. It was obvious that she had already drunk a lot of wine.

Looking at the seductive appearance of this familiar lady, and thinking of the sweet and delicious kiss in the afternoon, the young man’s lower abdomen couldn’t help but surge with heat. He smiled and stepped aside the door, “Please come in, beautiful Miss Fei Jie.”

Fei Jie threw herself into the living room sofa step by step, kicked off the flip-flop, shook the wine bottle, and said with a chuckle, “I brought a bottle of good wine, how about having a drink with me?”

“I’m honored to be drunk with you!” Qin Lun smiled and put the glass in his hand in front of Fei Jie.

Fei Jie slightly leaned over and poured wine for Qin Lun. The two plump peaks squeezed out a deep gully. Even though the young man’s heart was as calm as still water, he still felt that the large expanse of snow-white in front of him was somewhat blinding, and he immediately moved his gaze away with some difficulty.

Since Fei Jie’s kiss in the afternoon, he had a good memory with Catherine, and he was more and more unable to resist this kind of instinctive reaction from his body.

“Haha, Mr. Qin Lun, don’t you look like a good person?” Fei Jie, who was already a little drunk, keenly noticed Qin Lun’s line of sight. He put down the wine bottle in his hand, and a pair of delicate white catkins hooked around the young man’s neck as he spoke meaningfully.

“You are a charming lady. As long as you are a man, it will be hard for you to resist your charm.” Qin Lun rubbed his nose and said awkwardly, “However, please don’t use your afternoon reading ability on me. It’s enough to make a fool of yourself once.”

“Haha, don’t mention it. I was the one who made a fool of myself this afternoon, not you.” Fei Jie laughed as she leaned back and forth and whispered in Qin Lun’s ear, “This time, I promise that I won’t use my ability to read anymore. In exchange, I want you!”

“Miss Fei Jie” Before Qin Lun could finish his sentence, Fei Jie’s lips sealed his mouth, and a delicate and flexible little snake appeared in his mouth.

“Bang!” The two of them rolled off the sofa and fell to the ground. Qin Lun felt that there were two more elastic and soft peaks on his chest. The long-suppressed heat flow instantly surged into his heart from his lower abdomen.

“You can’t blame me, Catherine” Qin Lun wrapped his hands around Fei Jie’s buttocks and suddenly rolled over, crushing the woman beneath him …

Soon, Fei Jie’s suppressed groans resounded in the room, and the room was filled with spring.
