Chapter 367 Who is the protagonist?

Kyoto.

Library.

Chen Sheng slowly opened his eyes.

He is not angry.

Even after the conversation, Chen Sheng could see that Lu Yang didn't want to save him at all.

But Chen Sheng,

Never put your hope in others.

He has already been mentally prepared for this situation.

same.

He also has no fear of the imminent arrival of his dependents.

Because Chen Sheng knew.

Facing difficulties, the only right way is to improve your strength and blow it up with one punch.

As for what happened after the explosion,

Let’s wait until it’s blown up first.

He was just as bland as ever.

Continue to observe and practice the Holy Heart Yang Gong in your hands.

After reading one,

Then I started to read the next one.

Chen Sheng continued to study and test all the breathing methods, secret skills, and various training-related classics collected by the Wushu Association, constantly filling in his vacancies in theoretical knowledge.

Chen Sheng,

A quiet transformation is taking place.

From the user of the power.

Become a builder of strength.

So and so.

time,

Passed by quietly and silently.

——————

Dependent Outpost,

Apokolips.

Hanging upside down in front of the sacred tree.

The tall figure walked forward slowly.

He wears black armor,

It's so tight that it's hard to see the true appearance.

On the surface of the armor, coagulated blood scabs were faintly visible.

So much so that when the figure walks, the rich smell of blood always surrounds him.

behind him.

Followed by nine dependents with different looks.

There were ten people in total on this trip.

It is the standard configuration of the dependent team.

only,

Compared to the tall figure leading the way.

The family members behind him all looked a little lethargic.

The armor he wore was damaged everywhere.

It seemed like he had just been through a tough battle.

"Heaven, you don't need to be in such a hurry to deliver the task."

At this time,

An octopus-headed relative quickened his pace, came behind the tall figure, and whispered.

"Even if the task is not done by us, someone else will do it."

"Life is so long, so why be so anxious?"

While talking.

The two round eyes on the octopus' head were staring closely at the back of the tall figure, and his voice sounded a little nervous.

Of course he would be nervous.

The tall figure in front of me,

In the mission a day ago, they had just killed the leader of their team and sent him back to the resurrection pool.

As for the reason,

It was just because the captain's attitude towards him was a little contemptuous.

But that's not the point.

The dependents won’t die anyway.

They quarreled with each other and fought with each other.

As long as there is no face-to-face argument at the outpost or headquarters, no one cares at all other times.

The octopus head is frightened,

It was the strength of this tall figure.

You must know that the captain of their team is a strong man who is close to the explosion star and whose life essence is about to leap.

It is somewhat famous throughout the outpost.

But facing this tall figure, he didn't even survive a round and was killed to ashes very cleanly.

then,

The other party even led them to forcefully break through the mission universe that was originally strictly guarded.

A task that would have taken at least a week to complete took only one day.

Who is the other party and where does he come from.

The octopus head is unclear.

The only information I know,

That is, the other party was a wandering family member assigned to their team by the system one day, and he called himself a heavenly being.

Very strange name.

It's more like a pronoun than a name.

But this did not prevent him from being careful when talking to the king.

after all,

No one wants to go to the Resurrection Pond for nothing.

Even if you can be resurrected indefinitely.

But the pain of reshaping the body should be avoided if possible.

tread.

now,

When Octopus Tou's words just left his mouth.

The tall figure stopped.

The helmeted head slowly turned around and looked at the team members behind him.

Being baptized by his gaze.

The octopus head instantly felt goose bumps.

"Actually, I don't care."

"Mostly them."

He took a quick step back.

His face covered with tentacles tried his best to show that it had nothing to do with him.

It perfectly explains what it means to adapt to changes and assess the situation.

"you--"

His move

It also made other family members look at him angrily.

However, no one dared to act rashly due to the cold gaze of the King of Heavenly Beings.

However,

What the Celestial King said next was far beyond their expectations.

"I didn't let you follow."

"You can do whatever you want, it has nothing to do with me."

Hear the words.

Several family members were overjoyed.

Very good!

The reason why several people followed the Celestial King was simply because he walked towards the Sacred Tree without saying a word after returning to Apokolips.

they follow,

It was completely oppressed by the opponent's aura and an instinctive behavior.

If I really want to talk about it,

A few of them wished they could take a break for ten days and a half, and wait until the rest period was over before taking on a simple world mission.

Fishing and paddling,

It is the common characteristic of intelligent creatures.

This is especially true for dependents who have a long life.

not to mention,

The political hall inside the sacred tree is not something you can just wander around.

Either report something to the superior.

Or just accept the assignment.

If they go there and can't find anything to do, they can be punished and then throw out the sacred tree, or they can be forced to arrange tasks directly.

No matter which one, they don't want to see it.

And now,

I heard that the King of Heavenly Beings didn’t even care whether they stayed or went.

"Thanks, buddy!"

"Next time I have time, I'll treat you to a drink from our hometown!"

Several people said that they would meet again next time.

But he ran extremely fast.

As for the octopus head?

Naturally, he was not to be outdone.

Almost when the Celestial King was halfway through speaking, he had already opened his legs and was about to leave directly.

If you are not in Apokolips, you are not allowed to use power at will.

He has even used teleportation unique to his race.

only

Feeling the big hand clasping his neck.

The octopus head wants to cry but has no tears.

"Brother, is there anything else you need to tell us?"

He could only look at the King of Heavenly Beings with an apologetic smile on his face.

"The others can go."

"You can not."

The King of Heavenly Beings said calmly.

The words fell.

Nor did he explain the reason to Octopus Head.

Then he directly carried the other person and walked towards the inside of the hanging sacred tree.

soon,

The two of them had already arrived in front of the sacred tree.

"Brother, tell the truth."

"You're so boring like this."

"I am also a dependent after all. Strictly speaking, we are on the same level."

"It's not that I can't run away, I just want to be your friend."

"Otherwise I would have-"

Although I don’t know what the Heavenly King wants to do with him.

But Octopus Head felt that it might not be a good thing.

Therefore,

He persuaded him all the way, just to let the other party let him go.

Unfortunately,

No matter what he says.

The king of gods remained indifferent.

so that in the end,

Even the most flexible octopus head can't help but feel angry in his heart, and his words are even more threatening.

Until then.

Tiancai responded calmly.

"You can try."

But it's such a simple sentence.

But the octopus head, who finally mustered up the courage and prepared to be tough, sighed helplessly.

He sighed.

Then he allowed the King of Heavenly Beings to bring him to the political hall inside the sacred tree.

Inside the hall.

The Celestial King glanced around.

Above is a glass dome.

It is surrounded by alloy walls.

There is almost no furnishings in the vast hall.

Only the family members who handed over tasks and reported on the work kept coming and going.

Although there are many people,

The atmosphere was extremely quiet.

Even when the family members talked, their voices were so low that they were almost inaudible.

Just take a look,

The King of Heavenly Beings withdrew his gaze and walked towards the depths with the octopus head.

Randomly come to an uninhabited corner.

The King of Heavenly Beings tapped lightly on the wall.

"Hand in the assignment."

The words fell.

Then a face stood out.

"Please describe the task sequence."

This is how tasks are handed over within the sacred tree.

In the political hall.

Just tap any building at will and explain your purpose.

The face will then appear.

The king of gods came here several times, but the situation was the same.

It's hard to tell the gender from this face.

And the voice has no emotion.

It makes people wonder whether the other party is an intelligent creature or some kind of mechanical program.

"LV66598"

The king of gods reported a series of numbers.

"Please submit the original power."

The human face slowly opens its mouth, squeezing the rest of the facial features into distortion.

The Celestial King was also used to this nerve-wracking scene.

He directly took out an orb glowing with scarlet light from inside the armor and threw it into the human face's mouth.

The mouth closed again.

"Acceptance completed."

After a brief silence.

The face spoke again.

"The mission reward merits have been credited to your and other recipients' accounts according to the established ratio. You can check it yourself later."

As long as it is an intelligent life, it will be difficult to repeat the same fighting and destruction over the long years.

The same goes for dependents.

If there is no pursuit or enjoyment in a long life.

Even if the dependents are immortal, their spirits will be prevented from collapsing due to the power of the supreme demon.

But they are bound to be passive and slow in their work.

thus,

There is talk of meritorious service.

Complete tasks and gain merit.

Planets, items, creatures, and even law fragments.

Everything you can think of can be redeemed in the merit system.

The difference is nothing more than price.

And the king of gods,

Since becoming a dependent and resurrecting, he has hardly had a day off.

In just half a month,

He has completed ten tasks, which is basically equal to the tasks of other family members in half a year.

What for?

Of course, he was promoted to his own rank and led his family team back to settle accounts with Chen Sheng alone.

Follow normal procedures.

Tasks that have failed will flow back into the task system.

Assigned to idle dependent teams according to priority.

Ordinary dependents or even small teams do not have the right to take on tasks independently. Only the outpost management level can do so.

The energy level of the world where the Heavenly King and Chen Sheng were born was too low, and the tasks in the system were nearly endless.

Wait until the task system is automatically assigned.

Even the fastest would take a year and a half.

A year and a half.

With Chen Sheng's progress, the Celestial King couldn't even imagine how terrifying the other party would become.

This is also the reason why he doesn't give himself any chance to breathe and does the tasks frantically.

now,

It took half a month.

The merit points and strength of the Celestial King are enough for him to become the captain of the dependent team.

At that time, he can be assigned tasks with higher difficulty and more generous rewards.

Must race against time.

Before Chen Sheng gets stronger, kill him in the cradle!

"Exchange meritorious service."

"Promoted to team leader."

Think of this.

The Celestial King did not waste any more time and directly made a request to Human Face.

Promotion to a position requires about half a day of review.

Just right,

After the review is completed, he can begin to forcibly recruit team members and take on difficult tasks.

The octopus head in his hand is the second teammate that the King of Heaven values.

"Roger it, please wait a moment -"

"Your progress is far beyond my imagination."

The human face prepares a reply to the King of Devas' request.

But halfway through his words, he was immediately replaced by another slightly harsh voice.

This is--

As soon as I heard this voice.

The King of Heavenly Beings quickly knelt down on one knee without thinking.

"See Commander."

thump.

The octopus head in his hand fell to the ground.

But this smooth-tongued foreign descendant didn't even fart. He just got up from the ground in a hurry and knelt down like a king of gods before the sudden voice.

At this moment,

The originally indistinguishable male and female face has been replaced by a face full of spikes.

The triangular eyes stared at the kneeling King of Heavenly Beings with an appreciative look in their eyes.

this,

He is the supreme commander of Apokolips Outpost.

A powerful kinsman named Ember.

Half a month ago,

The heavenly being had just been resurrected and had the opportunity to touch the sacred branches and leaves, so he met him.

The King of Heavenly Beings at that time also said something about Chen Sheng.

Unfortunately,

The other party didn't take it to heart at all.

Just saying that he was looking forward to the performance of the King of Heavenly Beings, he drove him out of the sacred tree.

And now,

It was their second meeting.

"I passed your promotion directly."

"As for the merit, you can keep it for yourself."

Perhaps in the past half month, the Celestial King's acting style and abilities have been recognized.

Compared to last time.

Ember's attitude has changed a lot.

He couldn't help but give the green light to the Celestial King's promotion review, and directly waived his expenses.

only,

After Jin Mie finished speaking,

The image of the Heavenly King being grateful did not appear as he expected.

Just a bland response.

"Please give me your orders."

Hearing this,

Jin Mie smiled.

He was not offended by the attitude of the king of gods.

On the contrary, I found it very interesting.

"I thought you were just a lucky person who got Lord Ligere's attention by chance, and you would disappear from everyone in a short time."

"It seems that I made a mistake."

"In that case, I will give you a chance."

"If you pass the test, I will send my direct team to your hometown."

"What's the name of the enemy you mentioned to me before? Chen Sheng, right?"

"Use your loyalty and ability in exchange for his head."

"how?"

Uh-huh!

The Celestial King had no reaction at first.

When he heard this sentence, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Jin Mie.

He didn't care if he crushed Chen Sheng's head with his own hands.

As long as you can see the other person die with your own eyes, that's enough.

As for Jin Mie’s direct team.

Each one of them is an explosive star level power.

To know,

Even if he can touch the leaves of the sacred tree and his strength has greatly improved, the King of Heavenly Beings can only reach the explosive star level.

same level,

There are also gaps.

Some explosive stars can only attack small planets with all their strength.

But some people only need to point their fingers to achieve star rating, and no star can resist it.

And there will be at least one of the latter in Jin Mie's direct team.

Plus nine more explosive stars.

The King of Heavenly Beings also didn’t think Chen Sheng had any chance of winning.

How could this not make him ecstatic!

"I am willing to serve my lord to the death!"

This time,

The King of Heavenly Beings spoke again.

The voice was no longer as calm as before.

All that remains is enthusiasm.
