Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 467: Chapter 39: Nemesis

Thud, thud...

Sounds of bodies hitting the ground echoed continuously as hundreds of Scorpions fell one after another, the green blood staining the surrounding land.

The land near the Insect Nest was very special, covered with a layer of green moss.

This is an Insect Tribe facility called Decomposition Bacteria, where any creature that dies on it will be quickly decomposed, and the nutrients transmitted back to the Mother Nest.

To slay hundreds of Scorpions in one strike, not only was Old Bar and the others surprised, but Su Xiao himself was also taken aback.

Just a moment ago, he had this sudden urge to slash, and although delivering that strike consumed quite a bit of stamina, its power was beyond imagination.

Breathing steadily, Su Xiao couldn’t help but feel excited in his heart. The sword technique becomes more miraculous at higher levels, and he’s now capable of using some supernatural moves, which he created himself.

A gurgling sound reached his ears as over a thousand Scorpions crawled out from the Egg Conversion Pool, which now appeared one-third deflated.

”Again.”

Old Bar lay on the ground, watching Su Xiao with eyes full of excitement.

”Impossible, that move can’t be used continuously.”

Although the previous move was very strong, it placed a significant burden on his arm, making it unusable more than three times a day.

”Then what, I’m already at least over 160 degrees, Karlo.”

Old Bar glanced at Karlo, who straightforwardly spit out a puff of steam, indicating he was already over 200 degrees.

Old Bar laughed heartily, once again turning his eyes to Su Xiao.

”Bai Ye, I implore you, my ally.”

Old Bar took out two crystal-clear Soul Crystals (Medium) from his pocket.

”Take me into the Insect Nest, I mean you no harm, I just want to survive. I know you are a Contractor, from a mysterious place.”

Old Bar laid his cards on the table. He didn’t want to, but according to his original plan, he was going to storm the Mother Nest with Su Xiao.

He somewhat overestimated his body’s endurance. Now his body temperature was over 160 degrees, and Blood Vine Warriors would self-explode once their temperature exceeded 210 degrees.

”Help me obtain the Regeneration Egg, and I’ll show you things many Contractors dream of seeing!”

Old Bar finally showed his sincerity.

[Hint: You have triggered the Hidden Task: Sun Tribe.]

Task Reward: This is a chain task, with rewards based on task completion.

...

Upon seeing the triggered Hidden Task, Su Xiao’s eyes flickered. The rewards for Hidden Tasks are always very generous, highly valuable, and often include rare items.

Previously, Old Bar must have harbored ulterior motives, but driven by circumstances, he had to be more transparent.

”Not bad.”

Su Xiao accepted the two Soul Crystals (Medium) from Old Bar’s hand.

”Traitor.”

Karlo glared at Old Bar, and Old Bar exploded in rage.

”Bullshit, don’t you want to live! If you want to live, stop acting falsely honorable. All that tribe honor can go to hell. If you weren’t my ’eldest son’, I would have killed you back then.”

Old Bar gave Karlo a big slap across the face, knocking off the green leaves growing on Karlo’s face.

”Coward.”

Smack. Another big slap, Old Bar looked at Karlo with a disappointed glare.

”As long as we can keep the tribe alive, any crap about honor can be thrown away. The Sun Tribe pursued honor, and now they’re all dead.”

After being slapped numerous times, Karlo became even more dazed, and Su Xiao suspected this kid was smacked idiotic by his father.

The previously precarious cooperation strengthened somewhat. Although Old Bar still had many secrets, the two sides were now officially allied, with Reincarnation Paradise’s notarization.

Blade Aura crisscrossed, while Old Bar was slapping Karlo, Su Xiao was already clearing the surrounding Scorpions.

”Cross.”

Su Xiao slashed twice into the air, forming a cross-shaped Blade Aura.

The Blade Aura slashed forward, leaving the Scorpions along the way shattered.

”Let’s go.”

Su Xiao quickly charged ahead, Old Bar dragging Karlo following from behind, with Bubu Wang covering the rear.

Along the way, blade flashes flickered, Su Xiao cutting through the mass of Scorpions, carving a bloody path straight through.

A Scorpion lunged towards Bubu Wang, just as Bubu Wang was about to retaliate, a wooden spike shot in.

Poof, the wooden spike pierced the Scorpion’s body, causing it to explode. Upon closer inspection, this Scorpion’s body structure had already transitioned from animal to plant.

Old Bar panted heavily, a smile appearing on his old face.

”Are you okay?”

Old Bar’s body temperature was getting higher.

”Woof,”

Bubu Wang barked, and the Ice and Snow Goddess’ Aura enveloped Old Bar.

Old Bar’s temperature, which had reached 190 degrees, quickly dropped, soon falling to 150 degrees.

Old Bar was stunned, looking at Bubu Wang with amazement.

In the front of the team, Su Xiao halted the impending Blade Aura, as it seemed Old Bar wanted to show more sincerity.

The squad was harmonious, but don’t be naive, this harmony might only last until the Regeneration Egg is obtained.

Compared to Old Bar, Su Xiao felt more distrust towards his son, Karlo.

Old Bar may be an old fox, but he had clear intentions, unlike Karlo. In Karlo’s eyes, Su Xiao faintly saw death wish and madness.

Once Old Bar’s combat strength returned, his fighting style involved growing a wooden thorn from his arm. Any creature pierced by this thorn would transform, changing from a biological structure to a plant-like one, with highly lethal damage.

More critically, once pierced by Old Bar, even the Scorpions around him would grow leaves and gather around him, obeying his command.

Once Old Bar and Karlo regained their combat abilities, the speed of their assault increased, and the Scorpions were unable to stop them from breaking through.

Two minutes later, Su Xiao was the first to reach the Mother Nest. Standing before it, he shouted to Old Bar behind him: ”Hold them off.”

”No problem.”

Old Bar clasped his hands together, and a circle of a dozen plant Scorpions formed around him, tearing into the incoming Scorpions.

Su Xiao placed his hand on the wall of the Mother Nest, feeling something like a fleshy wall with surface veins.

A single slash to the outer wall of the Mother Nest, green liquid splattered everywhere; unexpectedly, despite Dragon Slash breaking through the defense, the cut was not deep.

Su Xiao relaxed his body, letting the hand holding the knife drop naturally.

”How much longer?!”

Old Bar’s body temperature spiked again, reaching 200 degrees, his lips beginning to crack, eyes like two small suns.

”Twenty seconds.”

Su Xiao was adjusting his state.

”We have to fight harder, hopefully, we can hold on.”

Old Bar kicked away a pouncing Scorpion, stretching one arm forward, palm open.

”Sun Rays.”

A strong light burst from Old Bar’s palm, radiating intense heat.

Crackle, crackle...

The Scorpions before Old Bar were roasted to a crisp, flames soaring, turning two to three hundred Scorpions into charcoal in an instant.

But the surrounding Scorpions were swarming, and the Queen of the Insect Clan, sensing danger, began a frantic expansion of her forces.

Clang!

The sound of a blade sang through the air, and although Old Bar didn’t see Su Xiao’s Cleave, he could feel its sharpness from behind him, realizing the power of this strike.

A five-meter diameter cut appeared on the outer wall of the Mother Nest, and Su Xiao was the first to rush inside.

If Old Bar was after the Regeneration Egg, Su Xiao was here to raid the Insect Tribe; Old Bar was merely a guide to him, each seeking their own needs.

The trio, accompanied by a dog, charged into the Mother Nest, while the Scorpions outside hesitated at its threshold.

...

In the deepest part of the Mother Nest, a beautiful woman as gorgeous as a flower was sensing with her eyes closed. On the back of her hand, there was a gold mark of number 8, the King of Arena Mark, indicating her ranking in the arena.

The woman’s name was Ada. Ada opened her eyes, watching as a coin spun between her fingers, then shifted her gaze to a magnificent Insect Egg not far away.

”Queen of the Insect Tribe, they’ve broken in, and there’s someone among them similar to me.”

Ada was not the Queen of the Insect Tribe; the Queen was resting.

”My friend, please help me hold them off.”

The Queen’s voice was gentle, naturally engendering good will.

Ada shook her head.

”Although you say so, that person is a bit strong and reeks of blood, clearly not someone to provoke recklessly. I don’t want to make an unnecessary enemy of such a person. We have no conflict.”

The Queen of the Insect Tribe was silent for a moment, finally speaking after a long pause.

”I agreed to that matter.”

”Bingo, I’ll be right back, and if I don’t return, it means I died or fled, so you can choose to retreat back into the Void.”

The Queen inside the Insect Egg sighed.

”Please return, my friend. You are the most reliable human I’ve ever met.”

Ada stood up, letting out a laughter like silver bells. Despite being ranked eighth in the arena, Ada was neither arrogant nor conceited, but rather humble.

”Who knows, but I am the Goddess of Luck.”

Mid-sentence, Ada seemed to realize her own immature statement.

”Uh~, a fake Goddess of Luck, haha~.”

Ada wasn’t really lying; she had a Luck Attributes specialty, the Black Chieftain Nemesis!
