Chapter 91
Zi Liyuan had no idea that he had been schemed against again.
However, even if he had known, he would surely have told them, “Thank you, and please send more-”
As for what kind of retaliation he would have afterward, at most it would involve being a tad heavier-handed during begging, making the bonds of goodwill a bit thicker and heavier.
At this moment, he had invested heavily, pulling out a Lord Boss’s corpse as material for the Corpse Explosion Technique, and those BOSSes who came looking for trouble were blasted away one after another.
After they saved two groups of examinees being chased by BOSSes, both of them realized that something was amiss.
“Why would they consciously flee in our direction?
Shen Yurou’s eyes were filled with doubt, knowing that their current location was not far behind the blood-colored barrier.
Well aware that an anomaly had occurred in the martial trial instance, and especially in the central area, shouldn’t one escape as far away from the altered area as possible when being chased by BOSSes?
Two consecutive groups running in this direction seemed abnormal, and they even made sure to pass by their vicinity.
“If another group comes, after saving them, you stop the examinees and interrogate them. If they refuse to talk, send a few out of the instance. I don’t believe they can all be tight-lipped,” Zi Liyuan said.
Neither of them was the kind to be merciful; having been calculated against, they were not about to care about endangering the future of others.
“Alright!”
Shen Yurou nodded her head, her phoenix eyes flashing with a cold light.
It was only two or three hours later that another group of examinees led a BOSS
in their direction.
Exchanging glances, both of them sensed the problem. Without a word, Shen Yurou donned her exoskeleton sniper armor, the dark muzzle aimed directly at the head of the fleeing examinees, ready to pull the trigger at any moment.
Nearly three hundred Skeleton Knights of the Skeleton Cavalry Corps, several dragging BOSS corpses, came charging like a tidal wave of bones.
Bones shattered, horses fell, and the Skeleton Knights, with their fearless attitude, forcefully stopped the monsters’ pursuit.
What followed was quite straightforward. Relying on the ceaseless Skeleton Army, they cleaned up the lesser monsters, and when only the BOSS remained, the corpses that had been prepared earlier came into play.
The Corpse Explosion Technique’s firing tactic swiftly reaped the BOSS’S life.
Without even cleaning up the battlefield, Zi Liyuan directed the Skeleton Army to round up the group of examinees planning to flee.
In fact, while Zi Liyuan was dealing with the monsters, these people had thought of escaping, but after witnessing a deft attack from the one wearing the exoskeleton sniper armor, blowing away a defensive examinee with over 7000+ health, they instantly fell in line.
They had no choice but to comply-after all, if a tank with such robust defenses could take over 7000+ damage in a single shot, what would happen if it hit a squishier class? Wouldn’t it reach ten thousand or even result in an instant kill?
How much were they being paid to do the job from above? It wasn’t worth throwing away their futures.
So, they answered whatever Zi Liyuan and Shen Yurou asked, competing to respond out of fear of displeasing them and being sent away.
As for betraying their superiors, that was hardly an issue at all!
They were not truly subordinates of someone else, but only temporarily serving them due to certain benefits; after all, they were just candidates of the current examination session.
Once the situation was clarified, Zi Liyuan, with a smile on his face, pulled aside the leading examinee for a friendly and heart-to-heart talk, after which both sides successfully reached a PY trade.
All they needed to do was wait here. The task of luring the BOSSes was handed over to them.
As for the price paid, it was a Heroic BOSS, two green pieces of equipment, a Lord BOSS, a blue piece of equipment, and a bottle of Heroic BOSS blood.
This PY trade left both parties quite satisfied, each getting what they needed. On one hand, they no longer had to worry about being killed by Zi Liyuan and sent out of the instance, putting an end to their careers.
One party could save time searching for the BOSS and also clear out a bunch of trash equipment from backpack space.
As for the person behind the scenes who got hurt,
Candidate: They only gave a few coins, and there wasn’t even a confidentiality agreement-what does being beaten to death have to do with them?
Zi Liyuan and Shen Yurou: Hehe…(* — )
You guess whether this shameless couple will go overboard when the time comes.
Soon, the news of the shady deal spread, and those who worked for the four royal families could get an extra benefit-why not?
BOSSes that would normally take two to three hours to lure in now appeared every few dozen minutes, increasing the efficiency by at least four or five times. These candidates were actually quite strong, with three or four hero BOSSes being no match for them, but the BOSSes escaping from the blood barrier were not fools either.
This group of BOSSes moved in packs, with at least ten as a base and up to hundreds rampaging without fear, including Lord Bosses among them.
This left the candidates drooling, with no other choice.
Now that’s better, Zi Liyuan got to eat the meat, at least leaving them a clear broth to satisfy their craving.
After four days, the BOSSes coming from the blood barrier were mostly eliminated.
And Zi Liyuan and Shen Yurou gained enormous rewards.
Thousands of standard silver-grade equipment, even if just below average in same-tier quality, were still silver-grade equipment!
Just by dealing with all these, tens of billions of Dragon Coins would be no issue!
Not to mention the massive number of blue and green equipment and an astonishing amount of materials.
The harvest of just a few days could be worth more than a hundred billion Dragon Coins, truly a lucrative haul!
But the biggest gain was the Bloodstripe Evil Packs-having killed over a hundred Lord Bosses which each dropped about six.
Zi Liyuan and Shen Yurou each took 50 packs, replaced their entire space bars, and saved the rest as spares.
The remaining five hundred plus packs were not intended for sale but were to be kept for winning over talents recruited later, as such items were precious and priceless in the outside world.
After dividing the loot, and after a brief rest, Zi Liyuan, with Shen Yurou by his side, stepped resolutely into the blood barrier.
It was time to settle scores with certain people!
However, what they never expected was the moment they plunged into the blood barrier, they ran face-first into a huge Spider Monster!
[Spider Monster (Lord Boss)]
[Level]: LV45
[Attributes]: Physical Damage 4000, Physical Defense 600, Magic Resistance 550, Life 10M, Spiritual Energy 2M.
[Skills]: Dual Sword Slash, Sweeping Cut, Whispering Evil Sound, Mind Control, Devouring Fusion, ?????
[Combat Power]: 6000
This is a Second Order Lord Boss!
The massive Spider Monster, nearly as tall as two stories, had a ferocious human face, the upper body of a male human but with some sort of bloodcolored keratin layer on it, its arms were a pair of sharp scythes, and its lower half was a blood-red spider’s abdomen.
The moment it saw Zi Liyuan and Shen Yurou, it let out a roar, and its two scythes came slashing towards them.
