It was a letter.

The letter was spread open on the table.

An ordinary-looking man said:

"Very interesting — — do you think the contents of this letter are real?"

Beside him, the woman with long red hair said: "I happen to know sothing about this country. When the Royal Academy was invaded, I took so monster specins and found that they were so kind of unknown insect ..."

The man didn't care: "There are too many unknown species in Evernight."

"But didn't we co to this human country to find out if there are any prisoners here?" the woman said.

"True, since the clues are already in front of us — —"

"Then let's do our job and go see their emperor."

The two stood up and slowly left the bar. ...

On the other side.

Snow Mountain Outpost.

Libertas placed a bow, a set of armor, a scepter, and a gemstone necklace on the table.

"The bow and armor are Xiao ngluo's, the scepter and necklace are Hua Qingkong's, co and take them" Libertas said.

The two won ca up to take a look.

"The bow is not bad ... and the armor is better than mine." Xiao ngluo said.

"There are three types of defensive spells on the necklace, it must be very expensive." Hua Qingkong said.

They looked at each other.

"Libertas, did you kill soone?" Xiao ngluo asked uncertainly.

"Or, did you steal soone's wallet?" Hua Qingkong asked.

Libertas angrily said: "How could I be that kind of person? This is what Liu Ping bought for you. "

The two won sighed in relief.

"So it's Liu Ping. Alright, I'll take it." Xiao ngluo smiled.

"This is very expensive, he's really considerate." Hua Qingkong put on the necklace and added.

Libertas opened his eyes wide: "Wait, why didn't you say he killed soone and stole sothing?"

"He knows what he's doing." Xiao ngluo said.

"He's not stupid." Hua Qingkong said.

"..." Libertas.

"Huh? Where is he? "Xiao ngluo asked.

"He said he's in a hurry to cultivate and level up — — right, he's already level 7, tsk tsk, he's really a monster, isn't he?" Libertas said.

"Level 7? I think he should have surpassed you a long ti ago. "Xiao ngluo patted Libertas on the shoulder.

"That's right. He's finally starting to cultivate seriously. I have to work hard too." Hua Qingkong said.

"Yeah, too." Xiao ngluo said.

The two won seed to have made a decision. They picked up their things and turned around to enter their rooms.

The door closed.

Only Liebertas was left standing outside.

He was stunned for a mont and said indignantly, "Do you think he can catch up to ? How laughable! I want to see how he cultivates! "

After saying that, he slamd the door and left.

... ...

A war flag was stuck in the snow.

Liu Ping coughed lightly and shouted, "Summon!"

A line of burning words quickly appeared:

[Activating: Secondary Heroic Spirit Summoning —]

[Note: This is a power of a higher level than Heroic Spirit Summoning, each use will consu 1 Soul Point]

Bang!

A figure erged from the snow.

It was a woman in a camouflage uniform with a large sniper rifle on her back.

"Hello, what mission do you need to do?"

He asked.

A line of words appeared above her head:

[Title: Thunderstruck Eagle, Technological, level 50]

— — -After obtaining the Land of Exile Card and leveling up once, the Heroic Spirit Summoning ability has now surpassed a level of power and can directly summon a level 50 Professionist.

Liu Ping spoke: "It's like this, I want to ask, do you have any ultimate moves against insects?"

"Insects? Are there a lot of them? "the woman asked.

"When there's one, there's a lot, and when there's a lot, there's a lot less." Liu Ping answered.

"Are they big?"

"Sotis big, sotis small."

"... I hate insects, you've got the wrong person."

Bang!

The woman disappeared from Liu Ping's sight.

Liu Ping appeared helpless, put his hand on the flag and shouted again: "Summon!"

A burly man in a magician's robe appeared from behind the flag.

The burly man asked: "Brother, what's the mission?"

"Kill a large insect that's leading a group of corpse insects." Liu Ping answered.

"Corpse insects ... what kind of thing are they?" the burly man asked with interest.

"Prisoners." Liu Ping answered.

"Farewell!"

Bang — —

The burly man disappeared.

Liu Ping helplessly shook his head.

"These guys you summoned aren't good at all, they ran away as soon as they heard there was a prisoner." he complained.

Lines of burning text appeared in front of his eyes:

[Attention, level 50 Heroic Spirits aren't a match for a prisoner — — even the lowest of prisoners]

[You've expended 2 Soul Points]

Liu Ping looked at his remaining Soul Power.

After reaching level 7, his total Soul Points has reached 16.

— — In other words, if I keep summoning, I can still summon Heroic Spirits 14 tis.

But after each summoned Heroic Spirit returns, I can only summon the next one.

Liu Ping thought for a few monts, then asked: "Can you issue a mission to summon Heroic Spirits that know how to deal with the prisoner corpse insects?"

A line of burning text appeared:

[Please state the mission reward]

Liu Ping thought briefly, then asked: "The reward is to fight a series of them??????"

[Are you sure?] The sequence asked.

"I'm sure." Liu Ping replied.

[The mission and reward description has been completed, you may summon new Heroic Spirits] The Sequence answered.

Liu Ping put his hand on the flag and uttered: "Summon!"

A gust of wind ca from the flag.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

"No one responded?" Liu Ping was surprised.

[I've already ntioned that almost no Heroic Spirits at level 50 would be able to et the mission requirent] the Sequence answered.

A second later — — -

Bam!

Finally, a Heroic Spirit responded to this summon and appeared in front of the flag.

— — -it was a thin old man.

"Sir, in truth, no one dares to provoke the prisoner's corpse insects, because they don't know what they are, whether they have a spare body, or whether they hold grudges." the old man explained.

"Then, you accepted the mission because you have a way to deal with the prisoner's corpse insects?" Liu Ping asked.

"Yes, but I don't dare to do it myself." the old man replied.

Liu Ping stared closely at him, only to see a line of text appearing above his head:

[Prison escapee, felon, death row prisoner]

— — seems like he's quite a dangerous person.

Liu Ping silently thought.

The old man drew a dark green short sword and lightly placed it in front of Liu Ping.

Lines of burning text quickly appeared in the void of space:

[Evil Insect's Downfall, Green Demon Canyon's Sword of Extinction]

[Spell sword (about to break)]

[Number of tis usable: 1]

[When it eats the corpse of a certain insect species, it will rember all the characteristics of that insect species, then completely disintegrate the insect's body when it strikes it]

[Note: It can do this to ordinary insectoids, but the effect is uncertain when it cos to the corpse-worm transford from a prisoner.]

Liu Ping silently nodded.

Although the effects were uncertain, it was still a weapon specifically made to deal with insects. Furthermore — — -

There were no other better options.

The old man explained: "After eating a corpse insect of the sa type with this sword, the sword will gain the power to kill that insect, but it can only be used once."

"What do you want as paynt?" Liu Ping asked.

The old man revealed a look of longing and said, "I want to stay here and never go back."

Liu Ping went silent briefly, then asked the Sequence: "Can you promise him that?"

[You can, but he is not allowed to stay in the current human empire, otherwise, he will be erased]

"Leave the sword behind, you can stay in Eternal Night, but I must remind you that you cannot stay in this empire, otherwise, you will be erased by the Sequence." Liu Ping said.

"Thank you, sir!" The old man was overjoyed.

He stabbed the sword into the snow in front of Liu Ping, then flew into the sky and quickly disappeared.

Liu Ping picked up the short sword and looked at it, then muttered: "Insect corpse? I'm afraid only the Imperial City has it, after all, after the Imperial Academy was attacked, all the attacking insects were killed by the Imperial Army ... "

There was one more day until the Imperial Commander-in-Chief would co to the border to inspect the situation.

If he moved a little faster, he would still be able to make it in one day.

Then — -

Ti was of the essence!

Liu Ping kept the short sword and imdiately ran in the direction of Cold Hamr Town.

If he rembered correctly, there was an airship from the Imperial City today, and it was resting now, so he could take the airship back!

Suddenly, a figure appeared from the side and shouted: "Wait!"

"Libertas? Why are you here? "Liu Ping was surprised.

"Where are you going? I'll go with you. "

"No need, I'm pressed for ti."

"Hmph, you're looking down on , I have the special ability to provide suggestion cards."

"That's true ... Co, you're still useful."

"Why do these words sound so awkward?"

"You're thinking too much."

The two gradually left the snow mountain and once again ran in the direction of Cold Hamr Town.

...

The old man flew over the snow mountain and landed on the top of another mountain covered in moss.

He looked at the direction sign on the top of the mountain and saw that it said:

|Retreat!|

|On your left is the ruins of the Ceylon Kingdom, behind you is the Imperial Border, and in front and on your right are unknown areas that have never been explored.|

|Please retreat imdiately!|

The old man chuckled.

"Is this the unknown world of the Divine Pillar of Eternal Night? It's really vast and boundless. "

He sighed, then with a light leap, he passed the direction sign and flew into the boundless darkness ahead.

About two minutes later.

In the silent darkness, the old man's shocked and angry voice suddenly sounded:

"What the hell is this!"

"... No!"

"Help! Who can co and save ! "

In the darkness, there seed to be a huge thing moving.

The old man's voice stopped abruptly.

Everything.

Returned to silence.
