Chapter 78 Bloody Road: Opportunity③

Ling Xue stood in front of a machine and said, "Blood Raven? How is the progress? How far is it to finish?"

Blood Raven held a black tablet and said after a moment of silence: "50.00%... Insufficient raw materials! The speed is too slow!"

Ling Xue was silent for a long time and then said: "Raw materials? The empire is already speeding up the collection...but there is still a lot of shortage!"

Blood Raven took out a piece of information and said, "Some soldiers in the kingdom have disappeared! Residents too! I suspect... the kingdom is aware of our actions!"

Ling Xue was stunned for a moment and then said: "Has the Kingdom noticed it? (Pick up the communicator) Let him know!"

Blood Raven shook his head and said: "Compared to us who only got the information now! He must have known about this earlier than us!"

After hesitating for a long time, Ling Xue asked: "You said... are we villains? Blood Raven?"

Blood Crow was stunned for a while and then said: "Even if it's training... the number of people who died in your hands is more than double digits, right?"

Ling Xue smiled wryly: "That's right! We were not good people in the first place... let alone for our own benefit now!"

Blood Crow was silent for a long time and said: "It's good if you can figure it out! After all, it's for profit...as long as it's not a matter of violating principles!"

Lingxue sighed: "I know... all must be done! For the future! For the present (operation)"

Blood Crow looked at Ling Xue, who was somewhat demoralized, and said, "Speaking of which... I am entrusted by Master Lu! What about you?"

After hesitating for a long time, Ling Xue said: "Uncle Ling said that we owe him! Sooner or later we have to pay it back... why don't we pay it now!"

Blood Crow was stunned for a moment and then said: "About being expelled by the family? Ama's side... I have heard some rumors!"

As soon as Xue Crow finished speaking, Zhao Yanxiang appeared beside Xue Crow and said, "How is the plan going? How much 'energy' has been collected?"

Blood Crow handed out the tablet and said: "It's a lot worse! But it's not unusable! Speaking of... huh? Who is the person behind you?"

Zhao Yanxiang looked at the black-clothed man lying on the ground and said, "It's just a troublesome player...Here's this for you (hand out)"

After taking the items from Zhao Yanxiang, Blood Crow asked: "Shall we start now? Let's wait for a while... let it reach 70.00% and then talk about it?"

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Yanxiang said: "Wait! We still have time... After all, although the kingdom on the mainland is missing... the threat still exists!"

Blood Raven froze for a while and said, "Are you referring to the player group under the Kingdom?"

Zhao Yanxiang nodded and said, "It's not just them! There are also some tricky guys!"

Blood Crow was silent for a long time and said: "Then what are you going to do? The current plan is still a lot short of energy!"

Zhao Yanxiang frowned and said: "Ask the emperor for it! After all, what he promised! It's time to fulfill (disappear)"

After Zhao Yanxiang disappeared, Blood Crow looked at the man in black on the ground and said, "Okay! I'll give you a ride (throwing)"

The moment the man in black's head shattered, a black ball of light floated out from the man in black's body and said, "Did you miscalculate? I can still exist with this mentality!"

Blood Crow was stunned for a moment and then said: "Soul? Just right... use your soul as fuel for us!"

Before the black ball of light could react, it was tightly trapped by the chain that popped up from the instrument not far away.

The locked black ball of light roared angrily: "You bastards! Don't absorb my experience points! Damn it!"

Ignoring the roar of the black light ball, the blood crow looked at the energy bar and said, "In just a while, it has increased by [-]%... much higher than the energy provided by the residents of the kingdom! (OS: 'Player' is really special! )”

At the same time, in the main hall of the imperial capital, Jiang Wuming looked at the emperor and said, "Your promise! It's almost time to come true!"

After a long silence, the emperor said: "Gu knows what you asked for! And you also gave Gu a big surprise!"

Zhao Yanxiang frowned and said, "I'm here to get things! I don't want to hear your long talk!"

The emperor sighed and said: "Gu knows! Come here...give Mr. Zhao what he needs!"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, a girl came to Zhao Yanxiang with a white tray and said, "This is what you want!"

Zhao Yanxiang took the items in the white tray and said, "Although I don't really want to mention it...but you should have noticed it!"

The emperor nodded and said, "You mean the players, right? That special group of people who are unkillable and possess strange powers!"

After putting away the items, Zhao Yanxiang said, "What are you going to do? And about immortality... Is it really that attractive?"

The emperor narrowed his eyes and said: "For the vast majority of people! Life is short..."

After a moment of silence, Zhao Yanxiang said: "Eternal life! Are you sure you can resist loneliness and loneliness?"

The emperor shook his head and said: "I need immortality not because I can see more scenery! It's a promise!"

After thinking for a long time, Zhao Yanxiang said, "Really? I understand... about immortality! You'd better talk to the Moon Witch!"

The emperor nodded and said: "Gu knows! But Gu is not ready yet... What conditions can I use to impress her! Let her agree to exchange Penglai medicine with Gu!"

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Yanxiang said, "Really? Then I wish you good luck...Your Majesty (disappears)"

Not long after Zhao Yanxiang disappeared, the emperor looked at the girl and said, "How is it? How is it? Gu didn't lie to you, did he?"

The girl tore off a piece of 'skin' from her own face, revealed Yuuki's face, turned to look at the emperor and said, "According to the agreement! I voluntarily go to the area where they are... the only request! Please treat the residents of the kingdom well! "

The emperor nodded and said: "Gu can promise you... come here! Take Princess Youji to see them!"

After a group of soldiers entered the hall to take You Ji away, the emperor looked at the empty hall and said, "I don't regret it! Even if... the ending is to destroy the world... I will go on!"

Half an hour later, in the fantasy fortress above a certain place in the Kingdom, Zhao Yanxiang looked at You Ji and said, "You guys are fast enough!"

The lead soldier said: "This is your credit! By the way... I want to ask you for a favor!"

Zhao Yanxiang was stunned for a moment and then said: "Help? What can I do? If it's not difficult! I can help!"

After the leading soldier walked up to Zhao Yanxiang and whispered a few words, Zhao Yanxiang said, "Yes! Take her down!"

After the leading soldier left with a puzzled You Ji, Ying Ying appeared beside Zhao Yanxiang and said, "Doing this... is it appropriate? After all, it is our prey... Don't you feel it is a loss?"

Zhao Yanxiang shook his head and said: "It's not a loss! After all, all I want is You Ji's body! I don't need a soul!"
