The Death List Novel - Chapter 456
Chapter 456 Team Up
‘”Ayala” Qin Lun picked up the emerald green seed from the wooden box and immediately felt the boundless vitality emitted by the seed. The rhythm of life made the seed look like a tiny heart.
In fact, plants were the most powerful living creatures. Some ancient plants have a lifespan comparable to that of high-ranking creatures such as angels, devils, and dragons. It seemed that Lost had paid a lot of price to satisfy Qin Lun’s request this time to let the Moonlight Fairy give up this tree demon’s metamorphosis seed.
“I’ll leave the item to you. I should go now!” Adrienne took a deep look at Ayala, who had turned into a seed, and got up and left the house.
As an elf who had a good relationship with Sir Fernand, she was one of the few people who knew the inside story of the deal. The reason why the Legendary Tree Demon was willing to give Ayala’s seed to Qin Lun wasn’t just because of the relationship between loss and loss.
This was Ayala’s last wish. After failing to become a Legend, Ayala’s body consciousness fell into a deep slumber.
Under such circumstances, the tree demon’s sleep would last for at least a thousand years. After such a long period of time, all of Ayala’s memories would slowly disappear and eventually turn into an ordinary tree species. This was the price he had to pay for failing to advance.
However, in the Shattered Star System, the tree demons had another way to maintain their consciousness. That was through the apostle’s ability to become the artifact soul acknowledged by the Shattered Star System.
Although the tree demon’s spiritual body consciousness would be bound into an apostle’s equipment after becoming an artifact soul, and life and death would be controlled by the apostles’ hands, the apostles’ rich and colorful adventures would also give them a brand-new life.
However, such a choice required extreme caution. Normally, after the apostles died, their equipment would be recycled by the starry sky, and their artifact souls would naturally disappear. Only a small portion of the apostle’s equipment would be acquired by other apostles or alternate realm experts.
The Fernand Tree Demon had seen Qin Lun before. Although he hated the murderous aura on his body, he recognized that he was an expert. That was why he agreed to give Ayala’s seed to Qin Lun.
“Oh, this … Adrienne, is Malfoy really in danger this time?” The elven girl’s voice startled Qin Lun. The young man reluctantly looked away from the seed and asked politely.
“Father wants to go out?” Edeline’s face revealed a clear stunned expression, as if she did not know the news.
“No, I mean, isn’t the war between the elves very dangerous?” What a smart person Qin Lun was. The moment he saw the expression on the elven girl’s face, he cried out in his heart. He quickly changed his words to save her.
‘”No wonder he acted so strangely these past few days. Not only did he give me a few more guardians, he also mysteriously said that he was going to another floating city in the clan. So he was part of this expedition!”
“Edeline, Edeline” Qin Lun looked at the fast elven girl and patted her forehead in frustration. This time, he had been a pig teammate, and Malfoy was going to be trapped by him.
Just as he subconsciously stood up to stop Adrienne and explain, Didi walked over with the projector in his hand.
“Master, I have your projection message!” Didi looked strangely at the elven girl and handed the projector to Qin Lun.
Qin Lun looked at the contact number on the projection and his expression changed. He dismissed the idea of chasing after Edeline. He had only acted subconsciously just now. With the elven girl’s understanding of Mafa, it was too late for him to say anything.
“Grant, are you looking for me?” Picking up the message, the clown’s head appeared on the projector.
“En, Qin Lun, come with me on the next round of the Otherworldly Mission!” When the clown saw Qin Lun, he didn’t waste any words and directly told Qin Lun the reason why he had come.
“Sure. Is it just the two of us? Where are Hill and Lily?” Qin Lun nodded and agreed without hesitation.
After the murderers received Rand’s and Hansen’s warnings, Qin Lun knew that someone would definitely invite him to join them on a mission. Either Hill or Grant, of course, the biggest possibility was that the three murderers were working together.
As for Hansen and Rand, they would not be accompanying them. They had already experienced a dangerous space war and had benefited greatly from it. Now was the time to digest the harvest and improve oneself. There was no need to participate in another space war.
“The Shepherd has already sneaked into a good small team before this mission. I’m afraid that he won’t give up on this cannon fodder in the next mission. He shouldn’t be accompanying us!” Grant twitched the corners of his mouth and said helplessly, “Lily hasn’t been evaluated for much longer than Silver. She probably won’t be sent into a space war by the Broken Universe. Next time, she intends to walk alone and won’t risk her life with us.”
“Alright then, the two of us are enough!” Qin Lun slowly nodded his head. His and Grant’s combat professions were highly complementary. One of them was powerful, while the other had high defensive capabilities. They could deal with most small-scale battles.
“By the way, what level of apostleship has your apostleship reached now?” Grant saw that the two of them had reached an agreement and was about to turn off the projector. Qin Lun suddenly remembered something and asked.
“Second and fourth grade, what’s wrong?” Grant asked in surprise. Qin Lun’s question was not a secret. He had nothing to hide.
“Fourth level?” Qin Lun raised his eyebrows. The clown’s title was even higher than his. “How many contribution points?”
“323 points, not many. Among us, Hansen has the highest rank. He has already reached the second level and the fifth level. Everyone else is at the fourth level!” Grant shrugged his shoulders. “That fellow was originally a soldier, and he seemed to be especially fanatical about titles. In every mission world, he would rather give up some equipment and items than choose contribution points.”
After turning off the projector, Qin Lun fell silent. Kelly had once told him that the title was not only related to the apostle’s exchange authority, but also related to the attention the starry sky paid to the apostles. It was also related to the difficulty of the assigned mission world.
Naturally, the rewards would be generous in a difficult mission world. However, if his strength couldn’t keep up with the increase in his title, he would only seek his own death. As a result, Qin Lun had given up his contribution points many times in the quest world.
He had originally thought that he had obtained two Golden Mission evaluations and would not fall far behind the others in terms of contribution points. He didn’t expect that he would be dozens of points behind Grant. As for Hansen, who was at the second and fifth levels, he was even a hundred or two hundred points behind Grant.
Of course, according to Grant, Hansen had just reached the fifth level. He seemed to be in the last quest world, so killing Samsara cultivators earned a lot of contribution points. Every time he killed a Samsara cultivator, he would receive twenty to thirty contribution points depending on the situation. This was almost equal to the total contribution points an ordinary professional apostle would gain from experiencing a mission world.
Qin Lun frowned slightly. He had originally thought that after obtaining the Ancient Era’s Elf Inheritance and advancing to Second Grade, he would be at least three to four mission worlds ahead of the others. But now, it seemed that the other murderers had always been carrying out missions in a different space-time world where the difficulty exceeded their own strength.
In this way, as long as they could survive, even if Hansen and the others weren’t as lucky as him, they would still be able to reap a lot of benefits. Perhaps there was still a gap between him and Qin Lun, but it wouldn’t be too far off. After he finished advancing to Second Grade, Hansen and the others would probably be very close.
Qin Lun thought about putting down the projector, but his palm suddenly shook. He looked at the projector in surprise, and a bitter smile appeared on his face. There were really many people looking for him today, and he was an undeniable person.
“Kelly, why are you looking for me?” Turning on the projector, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
After a long rest, Kelly’s spirits were much better. She was no longer as indulgent as she had been two weeks ago. The female martial artist lazily glanced at him. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then blinked her phoenix eyes and said, “You should know that it is a duty to be nominated as a team in the lost periphery, right?”
“I know, but are you going to fulfill it now?” Qin Lun asked in surprise.
He had only been nominated for two weeks, and because he sold the Golden Mission Evaluation Card, he had offset the team costs. Although he hadn’t entered the quest world last time because of his continuous quests, Kelly’s requirements seemed a bit excessive in terms of the quest cycle of an ordinary apostle team.
Kelly opened her mouth, a trace of embarrassment flashing through her eyes. However, this woman was not an ordinary person after all. She had a heroic personality and a thick skin. She rolled her eyes and narrowed her eyes. She smiled and said, “Duty is duty. It doesn’t matter when you fulfill it!”
“Alright, what do you want me to do?” Qin Lun smiled bitterly as he replied. He felt as if he had boarded a thieving ship.
“Hehe, you know, last time in Toril World, almost all of the rookies I led were dead, and only Rice was left as the only elementary apostle.” ‘”This time, Robin and I are going to work together with the main group, so we have to let Rice join an outer group for the time being. Of course, we just need you to take her through the mission world. Next time, we will work together with the newly established sub-group!” Kelly said with a smile.
Qin Lun’s eyes lit up and he calmly said, “You should know something about my character now. Aren’t you afraid that she will be treated as cannon fodder by me?”
“Hehe, Les is not an idiot. She has her own judgment. As long as you don’t give up on her, with her ability, there should be no problem protecting yourself!” Kelly smiled nonchalantly.
“Hmph, the Samsara participating in this battle are also elites. You have such confidence in her!” Qin Lun curled his lips and said quietly, “Space war is no joke. Even if she is a newbie that you value, I will not specially protect her!”
“Hmm? You got news of the space war?”
Kelly’s phoenix eyes flashed with surprise. With the number of apostles in the lost guild, they naturally had already received the signal of a space war. Perhaps Kelly and Robin joined the main group this time because they had lost their desire to gather high-level strength.
After a moment of silence, the female martial artist said with a serious expression, “I don’t want you to deliberately protect Rice. As long as you don’t hide anything from her when you act, it’s fine. I like this little girl Rice, but that doesn’t mean that I will protect her forever. Rookies who can’t grow on their own will die sooner or later. It’s meaningless to lose her.”
“Alright, since you said so, then let her go with me!” A strange expression flashed in Qin Lun’s eyes. The news that the Lost Legion was going to join the war made his heart become more solemn.
It seemed that the information Hansen and the others had received was incomplete. Perhaps the invasion of the superstring space into the shattered starry sky this time was not limited to the Low Demon World.
“If the lost guilds are involved in the war, then the other large guilds of the Horn of Devils will probably not be spared either!” After turning off the projector, Qin Lun’s eyes lit up. “This way, the horn of the devil after the war will probably be in a mess. Perhaps the entire Apostle Pyramid will be reorganized!”
