Chapter 217: Twilight of the Gods
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhou Chen spent some time testing the bizarre house and the bizarre shoes and confirmed that their functions were real without any side effects.
He found lavish food in the hall of the bizarre house. There were sufficient portions of buns, braised fish, bread, and roasted lamb chops. After tasting them, he confirmed that they were all delicious and healthy food.
“There is nothing bizarre about this bizarre house. My food issue is resolved now.”
After obtaining the bizarre house, Zhou Chen’s logistics support had strengthened greatly. Bizarre shoes, on the other hand, were very good practical equipment. Phasing and invisibility were useful skills.
After finishing the test, Zhou Chen began to rest well for the next few days. As for Little Red, it returned to Zhou Chen’s ring after familiarizing itself with the villa. Compared to wandering around, it seemed to prefer hiding quietly.
[Breeze of Dawn: Boss, I’m mid bronze. Can you tell me what to take note of in the middle bronze dungeon?]
At this moment, when Zhou Chen was swimming leisurely in the pool in his villa, he got a message from the rich girl.
“She has advanced to the middle bronze rank? No way… Why is it so slow?”
Zhou Chen was stunned when he heard the rich girl tell the news of her advancement. This was because in his opinion, she should have been at the middle bronze rank long ago, or even the high bronze rank.
After all, her financial ability was very strong, so it should not be difficult for her to level up. However, compared to Zhou Chen who had already reached the middle silver rank, her progress was too slow.
Although he thought this way, Zhou Chen still sent a message to congratulate the rich girl and told her some things to take note of.
It was basically common knowledge. For example, she had to be careful and pay attention to the native organizations and find a way to increase her strength according to the characteristics of the mission.
The rich girl had probably read these words many times on the forum, but Zhou Chen could not say anything new because the situation of every Survivor was different. There was no foolproof survival strategy. In fact, the luck of the Survivor might affect them more than their individual efforts.
After this short interlude, just as Zhou Chen walked out of the pool, he received a message from Li Guofu.
[Crooked Mouth Dragon King: Xing, congratulations on passing another mission! Do you have any extra system items you want to sell? I guarantee the price will be very sincere!]
“Good lord, this person wants me to hand over items again.”
Zhou Chen was a little speechless. As for how Li Guofu guessed that he had just completed a mission, he was not surprised. This was something that could be inferred as long as one spent some effort.
[Star: Yes, I have a bizarre sword here. This is very useful. Do you want it? I will give you a discounted price, only 100 million.]
Zhou Chen directly displayed the bizarre sword in the chat. He felt that this sword was somewhat of a scam. He was not going to use it, so he took it out to disgust Li Guofu.
However, Li Guofu’s reaction was not what he had expected. He seemed to think very highly of this silver ranked weapon.
[Crooked Mouth Dragon King: I want it! I’ll transfer the money to you immediately!]
“???”
Zhou Chen was caught off guard by Li Guofu’s reaction. He had sent the information of the bizarre sword to him because he felt that the price-performance ratio of this thing was not high, and asking for a price of 100 million was to persuade him to forget about it.
[Star: Old Li, are you serious? This thing consumes life. Do you really want it?]
There was no reply from Lee Guofu for a few seconds. Instead, Zhou Chen’s phone quickly received a message.
“Your bank account with the last digits of 9947 has received a transfer of 100,000,000 Dragon Country bills. The balance is 102144852.42 Dragon Country bills.”
“This… is real…”
Zhou Chen was speechless. He did not know what stimulant Li Guofu had taken to actually send 100 million into his account so quickly.
Then, he got a transaction request from Li Guofu. It showed the screenshot of the transfer and requested the bizarre sword.
“F*ck… I was tricked by this kid.”
How could Zhou Chen not realize it now? There was no silver ranked weapon in the market at this moment. He was only casually saying that he wanted to sell it, but Li Guofu really acted on it.
“So be it then, I’ll sell it to the Administration. I don’t want to use it anyway.”
Zhou Chen took out the bizarre sword and traded it to Li Guofu through the system.
After receiving the bizarre sword, Li Guofu immediately sent a message.
[Crooked Mouth Dragon King: Xing, do you have other weapons you want to sell? Name your price. Money is not a problem.]
“…”
Zhou Chen couldn’t help but scratch his head when he saw his domineering reply.
“Indeed, money is not a problem for them. The ones who print the money are with them.”
He quickly ended the conversation with Li Guofu.
Zhou Chen opened the system trading area and searched for silver weapons. As expected, he found that it was empty. There was not even one silver ranked item in the whole Dragon Country’s Survivor trading area.
Zhou Chen thought for a moment and felt that these should be the two reasons. There were probably only a few Survivors who had advanced to the silver rank, and they were basically all in the Administration. Even if they were not in the administration, the silver ranked items they placed in the trading area would be monopolized by the Administration.
“There is no need to fret about these things. I will just rest well, cultivate, draw cards, and wait for the next mission.”
Zhou Chen was not too interested in these things. He quickly turned his focus to himself.
Two days passed, and he welcomed his tenth mission calmly.
[Survival mission is about to begin. Please be prepared.]
[Teleportation begins…]
[Twilight of the Gods
Difficulty: Mid Silver
Mission: Survive for three months.
Prompt:
1: You could obtain rewards by killing the native gods.
2: You are given the basic language knowledge of the natives. You can communicate with them.]
At this moment, Zhou Chen was standing in a grass field. Not far away was a dirt path, and further away was a mountain range. He looked at the system mission details and felt his mind filled with question marks.
“You can obtain rewards by killing a god? Isn’t that outrageous? You’re instigating me to kill a god?”
Although Zhou Chen felt that his strength was quite good, he had never even thought that he could fight gods. After all, they were an omnipotent existence in the legends.
“But the mission name is Twilight of the Gods. Perhaps those gods are in a very weak state…” Zhou Chen read the mission details again and felt that things might not be that hopeless. If the conditions allowed, it was not impossible for him to cause trouble for the gods.
“Three months is not short. I can focus on training.”
The duration of this Survival mission was long and he could spend time in training. There were generally risks in doing the system missions to increase one’s strength, but training was very stable, and it was more in line with his peaceful inner heart.
“Let’s explore this world first.” Zhou Chen took out a shuttle-shaped hovering motorcycle from his inventory.
This hovering motorcycle was the high silver ranked perpetual hovering motorcycle. It had high speed and durability, making it an excellent tool for traveling and escape.
However, Zhou Chen did not travel fast this time. He only drove at a speed of less than 100 kilometers per hour.
“The scenery in this world is not bad.” The world seemed to be in a normal condition. All he saw was the natural scenery of a pleasant mountain area.
However, after a while, he saw something that ruined the scenery.
He had arrived near a rather wide gravel path. On that path, there were a few gorgeous carriages surrounded by a group of tall monsters with fiery red bodies and ferocious curved horns.
Around one of the carriages, some guards dressed in ancient European armor were doing their best to resist, but they were weak. In the few seconds that Zhou Chen was observing, several armored guards had been brutally killed by those monsters.
“Looks like this world has an ancient Western background with fantasy elements to it.”
Looking at the tall monsters wreaking havoc and approaching the surrounded carriage, Zhou Chen determined from their appearance that they might be demons. He did not know why they were targeting the carriages.
“Since I’ve seen it, I’ll lend a hand. Perhaps these monsters have passive skills.” After some thought, Zhou Chen decided to get involved because he was unwilling to let the new monsters go.
He jumped off the hovering motorcycle and put it in his inventory before charging at the monsters that were surrounding the carriage.
In the blink of an eye, Zhou Chen arrived behind a tall, fiery-red monster. Then, he gathered the violent Eight Desolates True Energy in his fist and instantly launched the most ferocious melee attack.
In fact, Zhou Chen could choose to test the waters with long-range attacks first, but he had not killed monsters for several days. His hands were a little itchy, so he directly began to fight in close combat.
Zhou Chen’s fist instantly destroyed the fiery red monster’s head with the violent Eight Desolates True Energy, shattering its ferocious horned head into dust. At the same time, the rest of its body was quickly covered in white frost and frozen into ice. There was a hint of deep black in the white.
This was the effect of the Freeze passive skill and Corpse Poison passive skill that Zhou Chen had already raised to the silver rank.
[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the Abyss Demon’s passive skill, “Fire Resistance V”. Do you want to absorb it?]
Zhou Chen almost instantly heard the system’s announcement.
“This thing is this weak?”
Zhou Chen was a little surprised. He continued to attack. His figure was as fast as lightning, like a tiger that had entered a herd of sheep. In a few breaths, he eliminated these demons. The few remaining guards watched him with shocked expressions.
Zhou Chen did not care about the shock of these natives. He had only helped them because he wanted to get as many passive skills as possible.
However, these demons seemed to be of the same kind. After Zhou Chen easily slaughtered them, he did not hear the system announcement again.
Feeling a little regretful, he checked the details of the new passive skill. Because the interface of the system was only visible to the Survivor, there was no problem for him to read it while standing here.
[Fire Resistance
Type: Mid Silver passive skill
The fire damage you receive is weakened by 85%.]
“What a succinct explanation.”
Zhou Chen closed the system interface. The introduction of this passive skill was very simple. It was a defensive passive skill that could reduce 85% of fire damage. He absorbed it and kept it activated.
Then, he turned his head slightly to look at the direction of the luxurious carriage. He saw the jeweled door of the carriage open. A white blond youth of about 14 to 15 years old, who was dressed in luxurious clothes, jumped out and walked towards Zhou Chen.
The moment the blond youth came out, a middle-aged guard with several wounds on his armor blocked in front of him, as if he did not want him to approach Zhou Chen.
However, the young boy immediately reprimanded the old man and ordered him to step aside.
The young boy walked to Zhou Chen and bowed slightly to express his thanks, “Master, thank you very much for saving me from those demons! My Winter family will definitely thank you greatly!”
“No need to thank me. I was just passing by.” Zhou Chen was a little surprised that the person in the carriage was a young boy.
He had thought that it was a young man through his Bloodthirst, but now it seemed that although the other party was not small, he was really young.
“I just came to this place. Can you introduce me to this place?”
The reason why he did not leave directly was because he wanted to obtain some information from the natives.
The young boy immediately explained to Zhou Chen, “Master, this is near the border of the Kingdom of Nat and the Kingdom of Tal. We are currently on the side of the Kingdom of Nat. We will reach the Kingdom of Tal after crossing that mountain pass.”
As he said this, the young boy pointed at a mountain pass.
“I see…” Zhou Chen nodded slightly. This was the first time he had heard of these two kingdoms.
“Then where is the nearby large city? Can you point me in a direction?”
Zhou Chen planned to bid farewell and leave.
However, this young boy who looked like a noble did not want to let Zhou Chen leave. “Master, if you don’t mind, you can follow me to Tartus. It’s the largest city in the area. When we reach there, our Winter family will reward you heavily.”
He emphasized again that his family wanted to reward Zhou Chen.
“Alright. Let’s travel together then..” Since he did not have a goal at the moment, Zhou Chen agreed to travel with this young boy who seemed to have some status.
