Swoosh!
Golden light flickered on Lin Bei’s body and he quickly reached Level 69.
However, he was not happy at all.
That was because his spoils of war had just turned into ashes!
“…”
Lin Bei was helpless.
He had never expected that Jian Ba’s full-strength sword attack, which had accumulated his strength, could erupt with such terrifying power and directly evaporate the warden of the Blood Demon Prison!
“Come on, I’m unlucky.”
Lin Bei was helpless. He was still thinking about obtaining a lot of rewards with this first kill.
Now, it seemed that he was overthinking.
It was awesome. After all, it took less than ten seconds to instantly kill the Blood Demon Warden.
However, the problem was that he did not obtain any benefits.
“You are…? The Fate Summoner?”
Under the blood-colored lightning, Elena looked at Lin Bei in a daze.
“What Fate Summoner? I don’t know.”
Lin Bei shrugged and sized up Elena, who was trapped by the black chains in the pit. He frowned and said, “I just happened to receive the mission to save you. Tell me, how can I remove the chains on your body?”
“As expected, you’re the Fate Summoner!”
Elena sounded excited. “As expected, the long wait was worth it.”
“Hey, stop sighing. There’s plenty of time in the future! How can we remove this black chain?”
Lin Bei frowned and asked.
He had just tried and realized that even if he used the suppression effect, the attack was useless. He only left some scratches on the black chain.
“This chain is a Legendary item. It’s called the Touch of Darkness. If you want to break it by force, unless you have the level 2 suppression effect, it’s impossible.”
Elena looked at Lin Bei and shook her head. “Of course, you can untie me without brute force. However, we need something called the Source of Darkness to control it. Only the Night Demons and Shadow Demons have this thing. It’s not easy to obtain it. However, Ania should have the Source of Darkness on her previously. Go and find it. You should be able to find it and untie the Touch of Darkness on me.”
“This… If it’s Ania, it might be a little troublesome. She has already turned into ashes. I’m afraid it’s very difficult to find anything from her.”
The corners of Lin Bei’s mouth twitched as he said helplessly, “Is there any other way? Where else can we get the Source of Darkness?”
“In the entire Blood Demon Prison, there are only two people who have the Source of Darkness. One is Ania, and the other is Pat, who is also the warden of the Blood Demon Prison. This man is a mixed-blood of the Night Demon and the Blood Demon races. He’s much stronger than Ania! It’s probably very difficult for you to get the Source of Darkness from him!”
Elena said in a low voice, “It’s fine. Even if you can’t save me, it’s fine. I’ve been trapped here for a thousand years. If it really doesn’t work, I can turn into a demon. This way, I can also escape.”
“Turn into a demon? I heard it in the dark previously. You shouldn’t be willing to do this, right?”
Lin Bei was a little puzzled.
“That was before. Now that you’ve appeared, it means that the Great Destiny Spell of the previous era has taken effect. You’re the person summoned by Master. You’re the Fate Summoner!”
“Master?”
When Lin Bei heard this, he was very puzzled. “Who is it?”
“Lord Sword God.”
Elena looked straight at Lin Bei and explained word by word, “I sense many familiar auras from you. Looks like you’ve seen some other Sword Shadow Guards, right?”
“Sword Shadow Guards? You mean… Jian Yi, Jian Ba and the others?”
Lin Bei looked at Elena in surprise. Thinking of Elena’s identity, he could not help but ask, “You’re Jian Qi?”
“Yes and no.”
Hearing this, Elena shook her head with a bitter smile. “Jian Qi… is already dead. She turned into three original souls and scattered all over the world. Right now, I’m just one of the souls. Another one is Alina, my sister.”
“However, that’s not important anymore. Your appearance brought about a turnaround!”
“A turnaround? What turnaround?”
Lin Bei was a little stunned.
“In the last era, a battle between gods erupted. It was an unprecedented battle, and tens of thousands of gods died. In the end, it even caused the power of the laws of the world to dissipate, almost destroying everything!”
“In the end, fear descended and covered everything in the world, directly erasing the gods!”
“It was only then that the Battle of the Gods truly came to an end.”
“However… After ten thousand years, the gods that had been wiped out back then would probably descend again.”
“At that time, there would definitely be another bloodbath!”
“And you are the one who have descended because of fate. Your existence is the turning point in this battle between the gods!”
Elena said excitedly.
“Hey, are you alright? Stop fooling around. I might not even be able to defeat an Extraordinary now. You want me to deal with a god? Aren’t you sending me to my death?!”
Lin Bei frowned.
He was still on the Heavenly Hunting Ranking and was being eyed by a group of Legends!
He was already worried enough, let alone facing a god!
The current him was no match for those existences!
“Don’t worry, there should be some time before the deities descend. It will take maybe three to five years, or at most a hundred years. This period of time is enough for you to grow up!”
A smile appeared on Elena’s face. “I have the treasure that the Sword God prepared for you back then. With it, you will definitely be able to grow quickly!”
[You have activated the World Mission—Sword God’s Secret Treasure! Do you accept?]
“Well…”
Lin Bei was stunned.
Sword God’s Secret Treasure?
It sounded awesome.
Moreover, it was a world mission?
Lin Bei was stunned for a moment. In his previous life, the Abyss Descent Mission related to the server combination was a world mission!
The entire mission covered all nine servers, but in the end, the mission failed. The nine servers forcefully merged and a large number of powerful NPCs died. After that, the players gradually broke through Level 100. Only then did the entire Second World gradually become a world dominated by players.
However, similarly, after the failure of that world mission, there were no subsequent large version updates of the game.
It felt like a contestant who had not passed the mission selection and was ultimately eliminated.
The entire Second World seemed to have returned to calm. Many NPCs disappeared, and the entire server was finally controlled by players.
Although players had become the true masters of this world, correspondingly, there were fewer challenges. Most of them were only expeditions and wars between the large guilds.
“I actually activated a world mission!”
Lin Bei took a deep breath. “Sword God’s Secret Treasure? I’ll take it!”
“That’s great!”
Elena smiled when she heard this. “Since you’ve accepted the mission, I should tell you the first part of the mission! Listen carefully. If you want to obtain the Sword God’s Secret Treasure, the first step you have to do is to find the Sword Tomb Mystic Realm before the Sword God became a god!”
“This step is not simple!”
