Reincarnation Paradise

The candlelight flickered, and a little girl under ten years old was hanging her head and facing the wall. It could be seen that her body was shaking. Even as a saint, her heart was full of despair and helplessness at this time.

At the dining table, the old Duke poured some scarlet liquid into a delicate oak cup. This was not blood. The old Duke was tired of the rusty smell of blood. This scarlet liquid was called 'Crimson Gift' and was a wine brewed with vitality. Created by a mad widow.

There was a lot of commotion in the city of Arans because of this kind of wine. Later, the old Duke took over the matter and it was calmed down.

"Mercedes, do you know what the punishment will be for eavesdropping on my conversation with the guests?"

The old Duke slightly raised the wine bottle in his hand, meaning to ask Su Xiao if he wanted a drink. Su Xiao declined, saying that he did not drink. In fact, he did not have the habit of drinking "high-concentration compressed explosives".

"Grandpa...Grandpa, I am Tasia, and Mercedes is mine..."

The little girl Tasia said she was stuck. She didn’t know how to call her grandmother’s grandmother. As for calling the old Duke grandfather, it was because in her personal understanding, male elders of more than five generations should all be called grandfather. Classification.

"Tasia?"

The old Duke pondered seriously for a few seconds, but in the end, he still did not recall which generation of his descendant Tasia was.

"It's already so late, go back to sleep."

The old Duke smiled kindly and didn't say anything until Tasia walked out of the banquet hall.

"Alf, where is the Soul Stone you mentioned? If you don't have even the most basic clues, it will be impossible to find it."

The Soul Stone that Su Xiao mentioned was the old Duke's name for the Soul-Breaking Shadow Stone. As for helping the old Duke find the Soul-Breaking Shadow Stone, of course Su Xiao would look for it. As for how to find it, of course he would embezzle it. Shi is very important to Su Xiao, even if he falls out with the old Duke directly, it doesn't matter.

The thoughts in Su Xiao's mind gradually became clear. His ultimate goal was to destroy the 'space-time hub device'. The current situation is that even if the space-time hub device is not in the Serra Empire, Su Xiao will not leave here. He must first obtain the Soul-Destroying Shadow Stone, and the skeleton that originally held the Soul-Severing Shadow Stone.

There are two things that can be accomplished at the moment, one is to find and obtain the Soul-Severing Shadow Stone, and the other is to find the unknown skeleton.

On the way to complete these two things, Su Xiao was also able to find out information about the 'space-time hub device', which can be said to kill three birds with one stone.

As for getting rid of Xi, Su Xiao is not planning to go find the woman for the time being. It would be a waste of time. After he completes the first three goals, he will have the power in his hands to find traces of Xi all over the world. Then he will find her and kill her. .

After straightening out her thoughts, Su Xiao began to determine the terms of cooperation with the old Duke. The content of the cooperation was very simple. While Su Xiao was helping the old Duke search for the Soul Stone, the old Duke would announce to the public that Su Xiao was his 'agent' and would handle the matter on his behalf. Some things take about 5 days to half a month.

The old Duke's approach was quite smart. He would not lose his power, but also allow Su Xiao to help him find the Soul Stone. It seemed that everything was within the control of the Old Duke. He not only resolved the assassination crisis, but also received strong military reinforcements. Because of this, he did not choose to fall out with Lidya Su.

Another advantage of this arrangement is that the other four dukes can't say anything at all, because the old duke did not grant the title to Su Xiao, but asked Su Xiao to be his agent.

The old Duke could have declared to the outside world that he was too old and wanted to rest for a while. As the oldest saint among the five Dukes, the other four could not find any problem with his statement.

Of course, this is just the old Duke's own thoughts. Su Xiao has been talking to the Old Duke for about half an hour. During this period, the Old Duke drank a total of 12 grams of high-concentration compressed explosives and a small piece of exile fragments separated to the size of dust particles. .

When the two sides fall out, Su Xiao will let the old Duke know how painful it is to interrupt cooperation.

There is no direct conflict between the two parties at the moment, so there is no problem in cooperation, provided that the old Duke does not stab him in the back.

"Tomorrow morning, I will inform the other four dukes first, and then you need to go to the Holy Court with me. If the Holy King is not asleep, we may still be able to see him."

"Can."

"Well, Cuculin White Night, you are now my representative, Adrian Alver, and enjoy your position as Duke."

As soon as the old Duke finished speaking, Su Xiao received a large number of prompts.

[You have completed the main mission, the first ring. 】

[Task reward: True attribute point × 1 (already stored in the reincarnation brand). 】

[You have completed the main mission·Second Ring. 】

[Task reward: 150,000 paradise coins (deposited into the reincarnation brand). 】

[You have completed the main mission·the third ring. 】

[Task reward: Soul crystal (large) × 5. 】

[Main mission·The fourth ring (seven rings in total). 】

Difficulty level: Lv.56～Lv.63

Mission information: Kill Saint King Alexander and obtain his heart.

Tip: The Saint King's heart integrity must be above 50%, otherwise the mission will fail.

Task period: 20 calendar days.

Mission reward: Holy Spirit level treasure chest

Mission punishment: forced execution.

…

Obviously, Su Xiao's choice was correct. He directly moved the main mission to the fourth ring, skipping the first three rings. These three ring missions should be to work as a 'coolie' for the imperial officials, thereby gaining a higher status.

As for the fourth ring mission, this is very exciting. Kill Alexander, the king of the Serra Empire, and get his heart.

The difficulty of the task is between Lv.56~Lv.63. The highest difficulty reaches level seven. Obviously, this is a tough difficulty. Not only will you have to face a large number of powerful people, but you will also be besieged by the imperial army.

Of course, Su Xiao would not be aggressive. He had already taken advantage of the old Duke and was only waiting for the opportunity to meet the Saint King alone in the future.

If the old Duke knew what Su Xiao was about to do, he would definitely stop cooperation immediately and draw a clear line with Su Xiao.

Before 12 o'clock in the night, Su Xiao left the old Duke's manor. The old Duke didn't trust him, and he certainly didn't trust him either. If the old guy had a brain attack and suddenly got tens of thousands of imperial troops, Su Xiao would have no choice but to Strategic retreat.

In the dim banquet hall, the old Duke's cheek twitched, and the cloudy eyes in his eyes showed a different look. In his long life, he had only encountered such interesting things a few times.

"Cukulin White Night, a strong man in the abyss, or is he from the Northern Alliance?"

Hearing the words of the old Duke, Bubuwang, who had integrated into the environment, felt relieved. At least the old guy was not planning to bring in the Imperial Army.

Su Xiao chose to cooperate with the old Duke, and of course he would leave behind a backup plan. Bubo Wang would keep an eye on the old Duke in the near future to prevent him from stabbing him in the back.

In the wheat field in the wild, Su Xiao returned to the city of Arans. As soon as he arrived near the city wall, he received news from Baha. Baha discovered a group of suspicious people under the city wall 2 kilometers away. The topography of that section of the city wall was somewhat... In particular, the moat under the city has been covered by mud because it has not been maintained for a long time.

Su Xiao quickly arrived at the location mentioned by Baha, and indeed found a few sneaky figures, and these people were still talking in low voices.

"Are you ready?"

"Well, no problem. The city guards on the city wall are all numb."

"Let those saints know how powerful our Apocalypse Paradise is, hahahaha~"

Super devilish laughter came, and anyone who heard this laughter could not help laughing.

These men and women were all wearing black robes, and their auras were hidden. After hearing their conversation, Su Xiao pressed one hand on the handle of the knife at his waist. He didn't want someone to mess up the plan before it even started.

The long knife slowly unsheathed, and just when Su Xiao was about to rush forward and chop down several contractors of Apocalypse Paradise, he heard a few crisp sounds.

Click, click.

The metal machinery stretched, and without any movement from the contractors, they assembled a large machine.

Rumble…

The muffled sound spread, it was not loud, and most of it was absorbed by a layer of light film. In 10 seconds at most, the large machine sank into the ground, and mud surged everywhere.

These people are here to dig, and they dig low at the base of the city wall. If this kind of courage is used in battle, they will definitely explode with considerable combat power.

Su Xiao and Baha looked at each other and stepped back at the same time. This kind of good thing doesn't happen often to prevent these contractors from mining? What a joke, of course, let them continue digging and eventually obtain the minerals through 'friendly negotiation'.
