Chapter 56: Entering the Main City! Does the Disciple Have an Extraordinary Background?

"Brother Kun, we have the numbers. Should we fight?"

At this moment, a lackey beside Brother Kun whispered.

"Fight, fight, fight! Fight your head!"

Brother Kun had not forgotten the lessons of the previous two encounters.

This Emperor could single-handedly trap and wipe out dozens of their men once, and hundreds another time.

And this time, he had only brought forty or fifty men—nowhere near the numbers of the previous two times.

Although they had Han Jiangxue, who was sent by the boss to help kill the boss, Brother Kun felt it was better to play it safe...

After all, the enemy had numbers too...

Besides, the boss's task was to farm Hearts of the Lord, not to pick fights and waste time.

With this in mind, Brother Kun cupped his fists toward Su Nian and the others below: "Friends, we just happened to pass by here. No offense intended."

"See you around if it's meant to be. Fall back!"

Fearing that the Emperor might respond with something like—I don't eat beef... Brother Kun shouted this command, waved his hand, and took the lead in running away!

Upon seeing this, everyone from Haoyue followed suit and left one by one.

Before leaving, a pair of eyes in the crowd that had previously mixed disbelief with excitement were now glowing with cold sneers.

Who knew what they were plotting...

As for Han Jiangxue at the front of the party, she turned her head to glance at Su Nian below before leaving, her expression ambiguous.

Once the Haoyue members had completely departed.

"Tch... A bunch of softies."

"I thought I'd get to show off my moves in front of you, Master... I would've slaughtered them all effortlessly!"

Zhao Dehu complained with dissatisfaction.

Su Nian: "......"

"It's not too late to catch up to them now!"

After teasing him, Yu Yurong stated some hard truths: "Besides, when your master is around, all you need to be responsible for is the slaughter..."

"Even worst-case scenario, you still have your master's wife. When would it ever be your turn to slaughter effortlessly?"

Zhao Dehu: "......"

"The way you put that."

"Makes me feel so redundant."

Saying this, Zhao Dehu looked at Su Nian, his tone turning dead serious: "Master, why don't we meet up in real life? If this disciple doesn't properly show you some filial respect, it just doesn't sit right with my heart!"

Su Nian patted Zhao Dehu's shoulder and joked, "If you put it that way, your master will have to fleece you pretty hard when the time comes."

"No problem at all!" Zhao Dehu instantly perked up. "Master, let's add each other on WeChat first so it's easier to stay in touch."

"Scan my QR code..."

After this brief interlude.

The boss respawned, and the battle resumed!

Everyone was not far from reaching level ten now.

And in this game, true excitement only begins after entering the main city!

......

In the blink of an eye, over half an hour later.

During this time, Su Nian had slaughtered the Rock Behemoth a total of sixteen times, and the dropped loot was quite substantial.

Rock Behemoth: "???"

Has nobody spoken up for me?

Ahem... Back to the main topic.

Green and blue equipment went without saying.

Combined, there must have been at least a few dozen pieces.

However, they were all sitting in Su Nian's inventory; keeping them might come in handy later.

It was just a pity that no purple equipment dropped this time.

D-grade and C-grade skill books for various classes also dropped in abundance, along with one or two thousand gold coins.

All free attribute points were dumped into stats, and currently, his and Xiao Yu's attack speed had reached 12.84.

As for the Hearts of the Lord, they dropped quite a lot this time—a full seven of them!

加上之前的六颗，苏钰四人正好全都能在王铁匠的隐藏任务中，兑换一件紫装。
Adding the previous six, Su Yu and the four of them could now all exchange for a piece of purple equipment through Blacksmith Wang's hidden quest.

As for their levels.

Currently, they were all uniformly at Level 9, 98%!

At this moment, outside the Rock Cave.

"Big bro, you've been dragging us through leveling and giving us Hearts of the Lord... I really feel bad about it."

Hou Xiaoyu said as she did some mental math: "A Heart of the Lord is ten thousand each, carrying us through leveling can count as twenty thousand, plus all those skill books you gave us earlier... How about 66,666? Sounds auspicious."

Beside her, Yu Yurong nodded in agreement: "Yup, sounds reasonable. I'll have someone transfer it to big bro right now!"

Carried is carried.

But if they let the big bro carry them for free,

Guilt would certainly gnaw at their hearts.

One shouldn't be an ungrateful ingrate...

"Sure."

Hearing this, Su Nian didn't refuse.

After all, who would turn down money?

"Tch... Giving money is so boring." Zhao Dehu walked up to Su Nian, his steady face grinning like a mischievous rascal. "Master, once I have some free time in a couple of days, I'll come visit you and bring you some good stuff!"

"Of course..."

Saying this, Zhao Dehu glanced at the master's wife, his instinct for self-preservation instantly hitting maximum gear.

"Master's wife, don't worry, the things I give Master are completely wholesome. I guarantee it'll be a pleasant surprise for you both!"

Su Nian: I don't want wholesome things.

Speaking of which,
listening to disciple Dehu's tone,
his background didn't seem simple either?

He really hadn't known about this in his past life.

But now was not the time to think about that.

"Alright, I'll take you to the新手村 (Novice Village) first to accept Blacksmith Wang's hidden quest. Remember... for your purple equipment, only pick weapons!"

"No problem, Master!"

"Listening to big bro!"

Soon, the group formed a party and entered the Novice Village.

When they emerged from the Novice Village again,

each of them already possessed an extra piece of purple-grade weapon!

"Alright, next... we are stepping into a whole new world." At a certain monster-grinding spot, as Su Nian's words fell,

[Skill — Heaven-Incinerating Sea of Flames!]

"Boom!"

Blazing fire emerged, and the dozen or so small monsters in front of them were instantly vaporized.

[Experience Value +32.]

[Experience Value +35.]

[Experience Value......]

Su Yu and the others watched the experience bar in the upper left corner ticking upward little by little, their hearts simultaneously filled with anticipation for the main city!

When the first wave of small monsters was cleared,
the experience values in their eyes
simultaneously reached Level 9, 99%.

One minute later,
the second wave of small monsters appeared.

[Skill — Heaven-Incinerating Sea of Flames!]

[Notice: All members of your party have reached level ten and meet the conditions to enter the main city. Do you want to teleport immediately?]

"Teleport!"

The exact second Su Nian selected teleport,
the figures of the five people instantly vanished on the spot!

[Full-Server Announcement: Congratulations to players — Emperor, Missing You, Hou Xiaoyu, Busty Beauty, and Caribbean Dehu for becoming the first batch of players on this server to enter the main city!]

[Special rewards for each: Remolding Stone x3, Miniature Treasure Map x1, Gold Coin x1,000, Blue Equipment x5.]

[May all players continue to work hard!]

As soon as this full-server announcement came out,
whether they were players grinding levels or players farming bosses for equipment, everyone was shocked!

"Holy crap, someone entered the main city already? And they entered as a party?"

"Wuwuwu, a thousand gold coins and five pieces of blue equipment, that's enough to keep me farming for several months!"

"Eh? Weren't these three Star Rain bosses hanging out with Slaughter the World before? Why did they run over to Emperor's party now?"

"Slaughter the World has already become a wanted criminal in the game; who would still dare play with him? Do you think people are stupid?"

"Everyone, have you found Slaughter the World yet?"

"Not yet, I've been looking for half a day!"

"+1."

"Me too!"

The world channel became lively again.

Meanwhile,
in the world of Divine Domain, Ancient Dragon Kingdom.

Emperor City, also one of the Twelve Main Cities.

"Whoa!"

"Is this the main city?"

"It's simply another world!"
