Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 1166: Chapter 51: The Outcome Is Decided

Boom!

An explosion rang out. Within the smoke and dust caused by the explosion, Su Xiao wiped the blood from his chin. He had already been targeted seven times and had killed 23 enemies in total.

Facing the siege of dozens of Contractors, Su Xiao was certainly not at ease. These were all third-tier Contractors, different from when he faced the Other Shore Flower Adventure Group alone before.

Although Su Xiao could kill these Contractors with just a few slashes, they could concentrate their attack on Su Xiao with a barrage of intense assaults.

Moreover, the abilities of these Contractors were bizarre, and Su Xiao often encountered rather disturbing abilities while killing enemies.

Of course, Su Xiao’s combat experience now was completely different from when he fought the Other Shore Flower. Before charging into the crowd, he constantly used alchemy bombs to raise massive dust clouds, and the impact from the explosions could also cover him.

The impact caused by the alchemy bombs, Su Xiao also had to endure, luckily there was a healer helping Su Xiao recover from his injuries.

Five meters away from Su Xiao, the Bald Captain was lying on the ground. This guy’s strength was not too strong, but he was ruthless enough. Knowing he was no match for Su Xiao, he directly ordered his members to attack indiscriminately.

Ptuh.

Su Xiao spat a mouthful of bloody spittle, kicked away a corpse in front of him.

”Seems I made... a wrong... decision.”

The Bald Captain had a slash across his chest, with numerous organs damaged. Moreover, one of his arms and a leg were severed by Su Xiao. Such injuries rendered him unable to continue fighting.

Clang.

The blade aura slashed toward the Bald Captain. From his way of fighting, Su Xiao judged that he was of the summoning type, but his summoned beasts were all dead.

With a thud, the blade aura slashed through the Bald Captain’s throat, severing a head.

Su Xiao used his intuition ability to perceive his surroundings. The Contractors had all dispersed, most of them retreating beyond the dust cloud.

The alchemy bombs were no longer exploding, and the dust gradually dissipated, revealing the scene to the sight of Chen and others.

The ground was full of slash marks, and shattered corpses could be seen everywhere. Two tower shields were stuck into the ground at an angle, and the flammable materials on the ground were burning. Wisps of black smoke drifted toward the sky.

On the battlefield, the only one still standing was Su Xiao. As for the surviving Contractors, they had already fled to a distance.

”The leader... is dead.”

”Hmm, the leader is dead. He gave the wrong order, and this is the price he has to pay.”

”Looks like we need to find a new adventure group. Blood Gate’s subsidiary adventure group seems like a good choice.”

”I’m more optimistic about Angry River.”

The Bald Captain had just died, and his subordinates were not thinking about revenge but were immediately considering finding another home.

This was the problem with the Starfire Adventure Team. There was no sentiment here, only a complete chain of interests. As long as this chain of interests operated stably, the members under it generally would not betray.

The Bald Captain was the center of this chain of interests, so everyone had to follow his orders. It was that simple.

If the Other Shore Flower Adventure Group encountered today’s situation, they would try every means to avenge the leader. Facts proved that such a type of adventure group would face extinction sooner or later when encountering an enemy with strong individual strength.

The Starfire Adventure Team was different. Once the Bald Captain died, this adventure group would immediately collapse. The members under it would scatter in all directions in the face of disaster. They knew how cruel Reincarnation Paradise was, so they would not consider avenging the Bald Captain but would immediately consider their own future paths.

”Going solo is also a good way to develop. When this monster rushed into our formation, I felt that our system was too rigid. Once one link was broken, the whole setup began to destabilize.”

The Deputy Leader of the Starfire Adventure Team spoke up. He seemed unwilling to join another adventure group.

”Continue.”

The Dragon Slash in Su Xiao’s hand sliced forward in an empty slash, a blade flower appearing, making a crisp sound.

As soon as Su Xiao slashed out, the more than forty surviving Contractors in the distance all took a few steps back.

”Who would want to continue with you? You won. If you can deal with them, name your price.”

The Deputy Leader of the Starfire Adventure Team, Sandstorm, pointed at Chen, Mizaki, and Old Smoke, meaning that if Su Xiao could deal with these three, they would be willing to sell the Ant King’s heart to Su Xiao.

Su Xiao’s gaze fixed on Deputy Leader Sandstorm. He didn’t detect a hint of hatred in the other person’s eyes. Indeed, the mode of the Starfire Adventure Team was similar to the Blood Gate Adventure Group, only the Blood Gate’s method was more ingenious. In that kind of team mode, once Stan died, other members would definitely fight Su Xiao to the end. That was forced.

Su Xiao shifted his gaze, looking at Chen, Old Smoke, and Mizaki.

Chen hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked out of the Palace Courtyard, which left Old Smoke and Mizaki stunned.

”Chen, you’re giving up?”

Old Smoke seemed a bit unwilling.

”Yeah.”

Xin’s response was straightforward.

”Why? He’s strong, no doubt, but that was before dozens of people surrounded him. His current state isn’t good; this is our chance.”

Old Smoke wasn’t trying to deceive Xin; it was indeed the truth. Su Xiaogang had just fought fiercely against dozens of contractors, and even though his survival ability was strong with the help of the ’Luxurious | Breasts’ healer, he still had significant consumption.

His mana value was only 657 points left, the Spirit of Wood was in cooldown, and the bullets of the Duke of Extinction were all used up.

”There’s no particular reason; I just don’t want to fight him. He seems to be my nemesis. Everyone has a small amount of elements seeped into their bodies, but he doesn’t have a trace of it, which means he can reduce high elemental damage.”

As Xin spoke, he had already walked away. He was the one who profited the most besides Su Xiao, as he managed to snatch the Ant King’s treasure chest amidst the chaos. However, the quality of the chest was far from ideal, so much so that Xin wanted to throw it on the ground and stomp on it. He even suspected the chest had been switched, which was actually Old Smoke’s doing, hence why Old Smoke and Mizaki didn’t bother competing for it.

”Good luck to you two.”

Xin, who had already walked away, waved his hand back at Old Smoke and Mizaki.

”Good luck my ass, Mizaki, we might have been played by those two guys.”

Old Smoke’s expression was gloomy as he pondered over suspicious points in his mind.

”The die is cast; I don’t want to engage in close combat with that guy; it would be deadly.”

Mizaki sheathed two curved knives at her waist; she had also gained quite a bit.

”Did you conspire with those two to set me up? I smell ’cause hair’.’

Old Smoke tucked the sniper gun back into his crotch. Apparently, he couldn’t shake off the habit of hiding a gun there.

”How could that be possible? You broke the hair off yourself, let’s go.”

Mizaki and Old Smoke walked away, and Su Xiao didn’t stop them.

While Su Xiao was considering to what extent he should exploit those contractors, a Soft Sister came running towards him, waving enthusiastically as she approached.

Su Xiao’s first reaction was to slash her, but the Soft Sister suddenly stopped.

”Don’t slash me~ I was healing you earlier, you know.”

The Soft Sister pouted after speaking. Compared to her healing output, the actual healing she provided was somewhat inadequate. She was the healer who had previously been assisting Su Xiao, looking quite adorable, but indeed quite flat.

”Uh-huh.”

The Ant King’s Heart appeared in Su Xiao’s hand; he sliced off around 50 grams, approximately 3 centimeters in diameter.

”Payment.”

Su Xiao tossed the small piece of heart to the Soft Sister healer, and she caught it immediately, turning to run. However, her ’little short legs’ weren’t quick, but thankfully her teammates were nearby to assist her. With impressive healing output, this adorable entity was how her teammates evaluated her, and today, she saved them all from having a deadly clash with Su Xiao.

Previously, the Bald Captain really wanted to focus fire and take out this healer, but regrettably, she had a medium-sized adventure group backing her. Attacking her would mean inviting a deadly confrontation while fighting Su Xiao.

”Make an offer. You need at most 50 grams of the Ant King’s heart; selling the rest is naturally what you’d do.”

A contractor spoke from a distance.

”I will only sell the Ant King’s heart through the Derived World Contact Platform.”

Su Xiao snapped his fingers, and with a loud boom, the 10 alchemy bombs he had previously planted exploded simultaneously, as fire surged all around. ℴℴ𝘮

When the flames dissipated, Su Xiao had vanished, leaving those contractors gritting their teeth in frustration, yet helpless to do anything about it. To chase after him would be suicidal.

Outside the palace courtyard, Su Xiao walked slowly, deducting the payment given to the Soft Sister healer and the amount he needed for his own main task. The Ant King’s heart had 180 grams left.

For individuals, the minimum amount needed was 10 grams of the Ant King’s heart, which meant only 18 contractors could complete the main task through Su Xiao.

Of course, Old Smoke’s group also had the Ant King’s heart. If they used 30 grams to complete their main task and receive a moderate evaluation, they would sell the remaining hearts, which would result in considerable income.

Even so, in the absence of any adventure group task reduction mechanisms, only more than 20 contractors, apart from Su Xiao, Xin, Old Smoke, Mizaki, and the Soft Sister healer’s adventure group, could survive.

Contractors who didn’t obtain the Ant King’s heart knew this, but rallying them to fight Su Xiao to the death was impossible. They had fought once and been repelled.

When there’s hope, no one would risk their life. Only those contractors who have no chance of getting the Ant King’s heart would fight Su Xiao to the death. It was precisely because of this that Su Xiao hadn’t immediately sold the Ant King’s heart but instead looked for buyers through the Derived World Contact Platform. The remaining time for the task was ample for him to work around, leaving those contractors who wanted to challenge Su Xiao with no opportunity.

Not everyone has a main task failure exemption. If the main task fails, the consequence that awaits them is death. This is the Reincarnation Paradise.

In the eyes of the contractors in Reincarnation Paradise, the contractors in Apocalypse Paradise are all sissies, hot-house flowers, while in the eyes of the contractors in Apocalypse Paradise, those in Reincarnation Paradise are maniacs, lunatics.

”An auction model seems perfect.”

Su Xiao wouldn’t set a price for the Ant King’s heart. In the eyes of those who hadn’t completed their main task, that heart was equivalent to life itself, and life is priceless.

As he walked, Su Xiao held seven Scarlet Cards in his hand. The drop rate of Scarlet Cards in this Hunter World wasn’t high, or rather, Su Xiao was having another bout of intermittent bad luck again.
