Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 15: Warning from the “Law Enforcer” (1)
In the final of the five-man team battle, we had not lost a single person, while the other side had one killed, one sealed, two subdued, and one escaped. It can be said that the defeat was already decided. However, according to the challenge rules, we have not completely won before finding and defeating Houston who has escaped without a trace. However, the "Hell Volcano" is vast and has complex terrain. It is not easy to search for the traces of a deliberately hidden bat! Therefore, unless Houston is willing to jump out and announce his defeat, he can only wait until the challenge time limit is exceeded, and Hades will judge the victory or defeat of the two challengers based on the results. Of course, because it still takes a long time to wait, and at the same time, the sealed Kekexili is constantly absorbing my mental power to recover, which makes me basically lose my combat effectiveness. The remaining mental power can only be used for self-protection. For safety reasons, we moved to the vicinity of the top of the mountain with the newly subdued Qitlei and Silando to prevent Hades from doing anything.
Perhaps because he saw that the situation was hopeless, or we had been prepared, or the system rules did not allow it, Hades did not cause any more trouble, and the absconding Houston did not dare to show up, and successfully passed the challenge time limit. When we arrived at Hades, Houston just ran out. "Five plus two" to one, the winner was obvious, and naturally we won the qualification to soak. However, I did not need to soak, so a spot was vacant. With my strong recommendation, Houston's strength was indeed slightly inferior to Chitre. Hades could only agree to let Chitre fill the vacancy, completely thwarting its despicable purpose of trying to suppress and attack me.
So far, after the re- challenge, all twelve alien undeads have obtained the qualification for immersion, and Hades ranked them according to their actual performance in the challenge and their own strength. Kekexili was sealed by me, and no one except the Nether Dragon Clan could compete with Khufu, so he naturally occupied the top position undisputedly; Taotao himself already has the strength of an eighth-level intermediate magic beast, and with the help of the powerful skill "Flame Dragon Wushuang", he is definitely well-deserved to be ranked second; Qitlei, who also reached the strength of an eighth-level intermediate magic beast, occupied the third position. It can be seen that Hades dispatched the strongest men to deal with me, but it was a pity that man's plan was not as good as God's plan, and I took advantage of the opportunity to further strengthen my power. However, the situation of Hades and Guben is not optimistic. Although many strong players such as Jizo, Gonzalez, and Silando lost in the five-man team battle and withdrew from the competition, the forces affiliated with Hades won a big victory in the single-player duel and two-person team battle. Regardless of whether they are "old men" or "newcomers", the strength of the selected players is not weak, which makes Hades and Guben be "squeezed" to the end and can only rank eleventh and twelfth.
Hades only gave them a three-month "adaptation period", and after the expiration of the period, they would resume the monthly immersion qualification challenge system. According to the newly promulgated rules, in order to ensure that the challenge can be carried out in a fair and reasonable environment, it is absolutely not allowed to "gather and siege" as before, relying on numbers to win, and it can only be carried out one-on-one, and at most I, the master, can join the battle - this is the "privilege" given to us necromancers by the system, and Hades has no ability to "deprive" it. Khufu, Taotao, and Qitlei are probably no one who dares to provoke, but Had and Guben are two "soft persimmons". If the people who come to challenge them are Houston, Dizang, Gonzalez and other powerful monsters with the strength of level 8, even if I am added, there will not be much chance of winning - insufficient attack power, lack of powerful means to kill the enemy, it is very likely that I will easily "lose" these two hard-won immersion qualifications, and my life may be in danger. This is definitely not the ending I hope for. Fortunately, there is still a three-month "buffer period" and things should still be uncertain. If Had and Gu Benneng begin to evolve and improve their own strength, or come up with a suitable way to "deal with" those threatening competitors, they can resolve the crisis of the challenge.
However, I have no time to invest too much energy in the "Hell Volcano" for the time being. Qiu Shui Chang Tian and Tian Xing have already subdued a sufficient number of corpse witches, and they urge me from time to time to fulfill my original promise as soon as possible, to form a coalition army to expedition to the "Yinfeng Valley" and "sweep away" the ghost royal family headed by Wu Zetian. I am almost annoyed to death by the "bombing" through mailbox messages, direct calls from the witch crown, etc. Anyway, the things promised to them will be solved sooner or later, and Xiao Bai can also return to the "Yinfeng Valley" to further improve his strength. After a few days of rest and recovery, I contacted them and began to gather the army of corpse witches to prepare for the expedition to the "Yinfeng Valley".
So far in the game, the existence of the mysterious "law enforcers" in the "Dead Soul Space" is no longer a secret. I even warned Qiu Shui Chang Tian and the others in advance based on my "personal experience" - the four witch kings jointly led an army of more than three million corpse witches to expedition to the "Yinfeng Valley", one of the four forbidden areas. The result was either that our entire army was trapped in it, or that we successfully seized control of the "Yinfeng Valley". Such a large-scale operation may have destroyed the balance of the "Dead Soul Space" and may attract the intervention of the "law enforcers". Let them be mentally prepared in advance, so that if something goes wrong and they suffer any losses, they will blame me for conspiring to "harm" them. In fact, compared to a few months ago, the current situation has changed greatly, and my mentality has also changed accordingly. The things on the "Hell Volcano" have taken up most of my energy, and coupled with the unsealing of the "Dead Scepter" and other things that must be done, I am almost too busy. In comparison, I am no longer willing to invest too much in the "Yinfeng Valley". Even if I have gained some benefits, I really don't have the spare time to manage it carefully and compete with Qiu Shui Changtian and Tianxing for the dominance of the "Yinfeng Valley". After all, no matter how powerful I am, I am only one person, and I lack "confidant" helpers with sufficient strength around me. It is impossible for me to "occupy" too much. I still understand the principle of biting off more than I can chew. If Qiu Shui Changtian and others are willing to "retreat when they know the difficulty" and decide to give up the action of attacking the "Yinfeng Valley", I will definitely not insist on it.
Of course, this is just my wishful thinking. Most of the players involved in this matter are experienced and have much more gaming experience than me. They don't have the "oil and water" of "Hell Volcano" to make money, so they will not give up the interests of "Wind Valley" for some potential and unknown risks. After listening to my warning, they just increased the number of the Terror Knight Guard Corps and mobilized some of their more powerful subordinates to participate in this action. It seems that they are determined to carry out this expedition. Naturally, I dare not retreat, so I can only cooperate with the expedition with all my strength.
