Chapter 284: Miss Evil Dragon, Long Time No See
“Origin Soil – Person of Hope”
Looking at the information, Xia Feng’s dark pupils involuntarily contracted, and his heart was filled with surprise.
“Damn it, so that’s how it is!” At this moment, he understood a lot.
No wonder the investigation team, which was supposed to investigate the ‘Garden Case’, sent people into the Egret Forbidden Zone to investigate White Emperor City.
It actually has something to do with the Life Roulette.
The citizens sacrificed in the Garden were ‘Lost People’.
The one hundred thousand troops sacrificed in White Emperor City were ‘People of Hope’.
Did Ye Li Dongjun start plotting for the Life Roulette long ago? Thinking of this, Xia Feng became even more confused. Had the Life Roulette been going on for thirty years?
After all, if Ye Li Dongjun wanted to plan ahead, he would naturally need to know the sacrifice information for both the initial and advanced stages in advance.
Archbishop Aus of the Garden likely obtained the sacrifice information in advance from Ye Li Dongjun, which is why he established the disgusting Garden. The purpose was to help Ye Li Dongjun obtain the life points of the Lost People in the initial sacrifice stage.
However, the life points in the initial sacrifice stage were not that many. They were merely a bonus, likely not Ye Li Dongjun’s main focus.
The advanced sacrifice involved in White Emperor City was the main focus.
While contemplating, Xia Feng continued to read.
[Sacrifice Item: Each player can obtain one “God Relic – Core of Hope”. Using the Core of Hope, one can create People of Hope.]
[People of Hope: Within the domain of the Core of Hope, if a deceased person has a strong will to live and their emotional nature is close to unified, their souls will be collected and sealed, forming a mechanical consciousness without independent thought – People of Hope, existing in the form of Hope Stones.]
[Note 1: Under the will to live, the emotional nature cannot be purely the fear of death. Those who purely fear death cannot become People of Hope.]
[Note 2: The first Person of Hope to be formed will determine the emotional nature of the domain for that Core of Hope. For example: If the sole reason for the first Person of Hope’s will to live is “a strong desire to escape virginity”, then within the domain, only those who strongly wish to escape virginity can become People of Hope.]
[Note 3]
[.]
It was somewhat mind-blowing. Xia Feng felt his brain needed some time to process.
So, what was the unified emotional nature of the one hundred thousand troops in White Emperor City who wished to live? He frowned and fell into contemplation. Was it patriotism?
That didn’t seem right. If it were patriotism, they, who had already disregarded life and death, would have been fearless and unable to form Hope Stones.
Xia Feng shook his head. Although he couldn’t figure this out,
it was now obvious that Ye Li Dongjun’s laborious efforts to create Hope Stones were not to use them to create some puppet legions, but to obtain life points.
And the purpose of meticulously planning for life points in this manner could not possibly be to buy Spirit Materials or Spirit Paper at the auction stage.
After all, the Ye Li Clan, as a super-large clan, possessed all sorts of rare resources.
Ye Li Dongjun’s goal should be the Origin Soil, or perhaps the Sumeru Throne!
The Origin Soil was a special reward for the advanced sacrifice stage.
The Sumeru Throne was the ultimate reward of the Life Roulette.
According to the rules, the purpose of this Life Roulette game was to select the successor to the “Sumeru Throne”.
The sole final winner would ascend the throne and obtain the legacy!
Xia Feng didn’t know what the Sumeru Throne was, so he hadn’t paid much attention to it before. He had only one goal: to use his copy ability to gain as much as possible from this game.
However, he unexpectedly discovered Ye Li Dongjun’s plan.
That is to say, Ye Li Dongjun was among these people? Xia Feng looked up at the blurry figures on the high platform in the distance.
“No, that’s not right either.”
“It’s not necessarily Ye Li Dongjun himself. It’s more likely a puppet he controls, or a confidant.”
Xia Feng rubbed his chin and fell into contemplation. Let’s assume for now that there was a confidant of Ye Li Dongjun present. Then the large amount of life points and Manifestation Traces rewards that Archbishop Aus obtained earlier should have been prepared for transfer to the confidant.
But I intercepted them. Thinking of this, Xia Feng’s dark eyes narrowed. In the eyes of the confidant in the shadows, Player No. 3, represented by Archbishop Aus, had already died. Yet, he, Player No. 3, had reappeared here.
The confidant probably thought that either Archbishop Aus faked his death to take the life points for himself, or someone used some strange method.
In short, regardless of what the confidant thought, he had already set his sights on him, Player No. 3.
Xia Feng carefully flipped through Archbishop Aus’s notebook again. It was all blank. He had no habit of taking notes at all.
“Fine, anyway, I can directly sever the connection of the teleportation mark.”
Xia Feng wasn’t very flustered. He planned to spend the colossal sum of life points he currently possessed first.
The current round was the sixth. After entering the advanced sacrifice stage, they directly proceeded to the sixth trading stage. The 18 surviving players opened private chat rooms.
As planned, Xia Feng found Player No. 14, Mu Qingtong, and Player No. 17, Yue Hongli, and completed the transfer of life points.
[You have received 119 points transferred from Player 14]
[You have received 34 points transferred from Player 17]
[Current Life Points: 299]
[Your ranking in the previous round (Fifth Round) was second, with an additional reward of 20 points -]
!
[Current Life Points: 319]
[Additional Information Displayed: Life Points are the highest on the field!]
[Additional Information Displayed: First to consecutively reach 100/200/300 Life Points]
[Achievement Reward Triggered: 10 Life Points]
[Current Life Points: 329]
The trading phase ended quickly. This time, no one approached Xia Feng to exchange information, which disappointed him somewhat.
He had been expecting the confidant in the shadows to come and test him, but unfortunately, this confidant was very patient.
Next was the auction stage.
According to Xia Feng’s calculations, Players No. 27 and No. 2, who had reached the 9900 sacrifice standard, had life points in the 130-150 range. These two were also the highest in life points on the field, besides him.
Player No. 27 was very generous, spending 103 life points to bid for two Legendary A-class Spirit Robes, b-grade Spirit Robe.
Player No. 2 was also generous, but instead of buying Spirit Robes, they bought various Venerable-grade Rare Spirit Materials and Fire Obsidian, spending 114 life points.
Xia Feng wasn’t very interested in b-grade Spirit Robes and Spirit Materials, as they weren’t very valuable to him.
He was only interested in A-class Spirit Robes, but unfortunately, A-class Spirit Robes would only appear in the seventh round.
However, other players didn’t think the same way. Looking at Players No. 27 and No. 2, their eyes were practically popping out, but they could only feel envy and jealousy.
With Players No. 27 and No. 2 in the game, and Player No. 3 never making a move, it was basically impossible for anyone else to compete with these two. The remaining players could only wait until these three big shots ran out of money.
As long as the big shots spent all their money, especially Player No. 3, they would have a chance!
When the auction reached the midpoint, Player No. 3 finally made a move.
Yes, finally, something appeared that greatly interested Xia Feng.
That was – Manifestation Traces!
It’s worthy of the Life Roulette; it has all sorts of good things! Xia Feng suppressed his excitement and immediately clinched the deal, taking it for only 75 points.
After that, several other items that piqued his interest gradually appeared, and he took them all. Twenty Water Obsidian, Spirit Replenishment Fruit, Void Fruit, Level 5 Spirit Treasure Fruit.
Many of them were spiritual fruits he hadn’t seen before, such as Spirit Replenishment Fruit and Void Fruit. Especially the Void Fruit, which was extremely rare.
Of course, the most important thing was the twenty Water Obsidian!
With these twenty, his Water Obsidian count increased from 40 to 60. He also had two Manifestation Traces, taking a big step towards complete Holy Solution.
Then, rare Spirit Infusion Fruits appeared, but Xia Feng didn’t bid on them anymore.
After all, with Miss Evil Dragon around, there was no need to waste life points buying these things.
However—
Speaking of Miss Evil Dragon, it had been over a month since he last saw her.
