Several Hundred Thousand Soul Sand (4K)_2
Translator: 549690339
Among the several bandit players, someone recognized the young man, “It’s you! Weren’t you the one who gave me information about a ripe target?” Lightning flashed in his mind, and everything became clear at that moment. But before he could vent his futile rage, he saw the figure standing next to the young man.
In an instant, it was as if he had been doused with ice water, his body going cold all over.
“The Big Hand Scar, with a bounty of 40W Soul Sand!”
“So you are…” he turned to the young man, “Baimian Shusheng with a bounty of 32W?!”
Here, the currency for bounty is Soul Sand, not Xuan Country Coin or Starlight Coin.
The value of Soul Sand is known to all.
40W Soul Sand is equivalent to 400 Soul Crystals. How much does a rare one- star Remnant Soul cost? The market suggested price is 2- 5 Soul Crystals. Of course, the suggested price is one thing, and you would usually need to pay a hefty premium to purchase rare Remnant Souls. But even so…
This bounty could still buy dozens of rare Remnant Souls or fully develop more than ten rare troops.
However,
This also indicates how frightening Big Hand Scar and Baimian Shusheng are! Unlike these bandits, they are the real tough guys! Only such tough guys can repeatedly commit crimes and remain at large, forcing the Players Association to offer bounties.
If you encounter such ruthless players with hundreds of thousands worth of Soul Sand bounties in the wilderness, there is no room to escape.
The player grieved, but in a sudden realization, he was now a bandit too, almost a bandit killed in action. With the appearance of Big Hand Scar and Baimian Shusheng, this was an opportunity for him.
He scrambled and ran towards Baimian Shusheng.
“Boss, boss, save me, I’ve always looked up to you as powerful…”
The rich girl was probably also wary, as the strong man didn’t chase after her. Yes, who wouldn’t be afraid of such ruthless characters? Now the tables had turned and the one who really needed to worry was this female leader.
Plop-
The player suddenly stopped, looked down at the dagger pierced through his chest, then up at Baimian Shusheng who had just thrown the knife, his lips moved, but before he could say anything, he collapsed.
“Next, it’s your turn, my dearest little sheep.”
“How is it, surprised or not?”
Sophia pursed her lips.
She felt that she was not alert enough, not smart enough, not steady enough
and that’s why she was targeted by these villains.
She had let the Lord down.
Only…only by killing all of these villains could she make up for her mistake! Meanwhile, Duo Lai, who had been ignored, stared intently at the scarred man and the man in glasses in the distance, his fingers constantly gesturing and his forehead slowly breaking into a sweat.
Seeing their frightened appearance, the young man laughed even more heartily, “Don’t be afraid, we’re very gentle, usually survivable for about three days in our hands…”
Before he could finish the word ‘days’, he pounced like the wind.
Along with him, several other wanted players also attacked.
They had a small force, even the Halberd Guards, Strong Shooters were just there to scare and trick newcomers. Baimian Shusheng, pretending to be a caring older brother had fooled girl players, or even female leaders, not less than eight out of ten times.
If they didn’t fall for it, then violence it was.
All of their violence was concentrated on themselves, a choice that most wanted players would make.
The young man and the others had all inherited the positions of rare two or three-star professions, and their skills were highly advanced.
Step-! Crash-!
Within just a few moves, Baimian Shusheng knocked over three halberdiers blocking the way. Due to the previous battles and chases, the positions of the Royal Guards and shooters were scattered. Baimian Shusheng dodged and leapt, directly pouncing on the core of the team, his blade aiming for the rich girl.
“Newbies, always so naive.”
Boom—
A dull noise came from behind, still accompanied by a scream.
But the scream… sounded familiar?
“It’sMa-zi!”
He glanced back to see the burly man in black armour leading the trade caravan. Even outnumbered, he broke through their player within a few moves, sending him flying and crashing into countless trees.
A powerful man indeed.
However, he wasn’t surprised as it was usual for a rich leader like the girl to hire one or two powerful guards when traveling.
Baimian Shusheng ignored the scream of his comrade and directly attacked the other powerful guard standing in front of the rich girl.
His blade whirled like a dancer, beautiful yet deadly.
This was the ability of the rare three-star profession ‘Night Blade Dancer’. With his unique understanding and technique, he was almost invincible among his peers.
His blade is weaving a wide net, causing the female player with the face of a vermilion phoenix to retreat continuously.
“Pssht ”
The sharp blade slid over the female player’s cloak, tearing the weak-defensive coat into pieces, revealing the deep blue dress inside. The dress outlining her slim figure perfectly, but what’s with the white fox tail extending from behind her dress?
Swinging with the fight!
The scholar’s eyes widened, he had always thought they were quite skilled, but it seemed they still have to lag behind the two female players in front of him.
No wonder why the woman with the eyes of a vermilion phoenix was a bit sluggish in the fight.
Could she not be sluggish?!
No, it’s just that the little girl isn’t good at fighting.
After fighting for a while, Daisy had to admit that she was not good enough, she had to resort to her ultimate move, “Sophia, save me.”
The Black Crow danced high, circling in the dense forest, diving down from all directions, leaving traces of shadows on the earth and space in front.
Baimian Shusheng was forced to retreat, his eyes wide open, looking at the wealthy young girl who just made her move.
No, something wasn’t right.
According to his assumptions, the wealthy young girl was just a new Lord, how could she have such strong power?
A sentence vaguely flashed through his mind.
‘I am just carrying out the boss’s task.’
Boss?
Who is the boss?
But, he no longer had time to contemplate, as he met the gaze of the delicate and flawless girl, what he saw in her eyes was not naivety or innocence, but… coldness, ruthlessness, indifference, and brutality!
Brutality beyond his own!
“Ah ”
Baimian Shusheng screamed, his hands suddenly igniting into a blazing black flame. Not hot but cold, the black flame that burned everything, was spreading up his arm.
The energy infused in his hands couldn’t stop the spread of the flames, even became the nourishment of the strange black flames.
Pa
His two arms fell to the ground, burning in the black flames, and turned into ashes in a blink.
The scholar who broke his arms turned around and fled without hesitation, running away by bounding through the shadows, covering hundreds of meters in a moment, and still kept on leaping, kept on fleeing.
He seemed to have gotten away.
“Ha, ha.”
He was panting, with the joy of a narrow escape.
However, the surroundings suddenly darken, the forest rustles, the caws echoing in the woods.
“Surprised, delighted, unexpected.”
The pleasant but death-heralding voice echoed.
The black flames ignited again, this time starting from his left foot. The black flames couldn’t be extinguished!
Pssht !
The young man bit the short blade in his mouth, fiercely cut off his own left foot, and he couldn’t maintain his balance and fell down.
But the next moment, the black flames ignited from his right foot, and kept spreading.
He had to cut it off again.
Bloody!
Angst!
The fear of death was like a tide, rushing from all directions.
In such a calm, the fear lasted for a dozen seconds.
The girl surrounded by the crows, walked out slowly from the depths of the forest, her face was delicate, her demeanor was elegant, like a princess walking out of the palace, but her whole body was filled with ruthlessness and coldness, like the Lord of the Black Crow that sows death and fear.
She pointed her finger, numerous black crows dove down, tearing and pecking at Baimian Shusheng.
After a while,
A skull with wide eyes, filled with endless fear, rolled down.
“Torturers will be punished as they tortured.”
Several flying crows picked up the filthy skull.
Sophia turned around, her figure disappeared in the crows that circled around.
