Chapter 617 - 247: Divine Chosen, Escape_2
At this moment, even mercenaries with talent have depleted their essence and stamina after a battle, leaving them without any talent.
But it’s different for the world’s second best; his ordinary attacks are already at the peak level. Hiring him guarantees survival, even without a single reward, just barely staying alive.
Perhaps next time, there might be hope!
To hold out until the mercenaries are free is already considered lucky.
Considering that A-levels are relatively wealthy, Yi Tian is no longer a newcomer to the A-level. He set the task amount at 500,000 Celestial Dao Coins.
Top A-level mercenaries like Ying are 500,000 Celestial Dao Coins, Yi Tian also has a 100% win rate, representing his good reputation. No reason to be inferior to Ying!
"Mercenary System prompt, an employer has sent you a mercenary request. Task requirement: protect the employer, kill the Indigenous People."
"Will you accept?"
The first task appears instantly.
"Accept the task!"
Yi Tian holds the Celestial Dao Stone and agrees.
The next second, he arrives at a snow-covered mountain range.
"Save me, powerhouse!"
Just as he lands, he hears a shout in his ear.
He sees an A-level Lord, being chased by creatures resembling Limon Beastmen.
The sole advantage of the Dao Body Lord is speed.
These Beastmen are Body Refiners; their speed is lacking.
Yet, they can besiege the Dao Body Lord.
The territory is just this small, sooner or later he’ll be hacked to death!
He joyfully welcomes the appearance of the world’s second best.
Yi Tian checked these Beastmen, late-stage A-level, they have talent, but it’s not very strong.
"Whoosh!"
Yi Tian swung his sword, sending a Sword Qi to cut down one of the beastmen.
The heart of the beastmen skipped a beat; how could a mercenary be so powerful?
They immediately stopped, looking at Yi Tian warily.
But it’s destined to be futile!
Following that, Yi Tian slashed several Sword Qi, killing several beastmen.
"Thank you, powerhouse!"
The Dao Body Lord immediately thanked Yi Tian.
The world’s second best is worthy of the title; despite being a late-stage A-level, just one Sword Qi could kill the Indigenous People he tangled with for over an hour.
He wanted to ask if the powerhouse was the world’s second best, but feared trouble from speaking.
"Hmm! Until we meet again!" Yi Tian didn’t linger and teleported away.
For the following few hours, it’s the golden period for powerful mercenaries.
Tasks never stop.
For Yi Tian, entering the field might force him to use the Celestial Flame Palm.
Relying on the Celestial Flame Palm, Yi Tian can contend with SSS-level talents.
Even early-stage A-level wanting to hire Yi Tian is a piece of cake!
As time passes, more Lords complete their assessments.
Many strong A-level mercenaries start running out of tasks.
A-level Lords are few, yet highly powerful.
Thus, the chance of accidents is far less than with B-levels and C-levels.
To some extent, it’s hard to continuously accept tasks.
"Mercenary System prompt, a Lord issued a mercenary task to you, task requirement: protect the employer, repel a Divine Talent, early-stage S-level Body Refiner Indigenous People. Cangming, Cang Race: Three-dimensional power 3069, physique 3046, agility 3019. Divine Talent: Cang Race blood, upon activation, increases strength and physique by 180%. First Trait: jumping power increased by 200%, Second Trait: defense power increased by 50%. Special Talent: Venerable Dominator, attack power increased by 50, defense power increased by 50%. Venerable Dominator, with each level increase, attack power and defense power increase by 10%. Special Talent: Unyielding Will. Can break the bloodline shackles, enhance cultivation potential, and ignore any contract or control. Immunity to certain spiritual attacks. Skills: Spear Mastery LV.10, Fighting Mastery LV.10, Horizontal Refining of Tendons and Bones LV.11, Light as a Feather LV.10, Water Mastery LV.5."
"This task was issued by a late-stage A-level Lord; if the information is accurate, task level raises to S-level."
Yi Tian, seasoned by storms, also gasps.
Firstly, because Yi Tian sees for the first time among the Indigenous People the so-called "Divine Chosen."
Secondly, a late-stage A-level Lord can battle Cangming for so long.
Divine Tianqiong? According to Yi Tian’s speculation, only Divine Tianqiong has such attack power.
Snow Dragon City and Nether Emperor are still lacking.
Yi Tian finds it quite tricky.
Anything else? Yi Tian wonders if there’s an element of conspiracy?
Isn’t there some treacherous individual among the Divine Race plotting against him?
"This is the top-level race’s proud child among Indigenous People; the karma is too great!"
Yi Tian said through the message channel.
Translate: add more money!
Yi Tian judges the opponent is at the end of their rope. Such Lord, incredibly wealthy.
This time stepping out, Yi Tian risks failing the task. Naturally won’t be foolish enough to accept this task for 50 million Celestial Dao Coins.
Besides, the talk of karma isn’t baseless.
"One billion Celestial Dao Coins!"
The other party understands what he faces; indeed, he can barely hold on.
"One billion? And you want me to offend a top-level Indigenous race? I’ll give you one more chance, if you can’t satisfy me, I’ll cut off this pre-deal with you!" Yi Tian sneered.
"Ten billion Celestial Dao Coins, I’m broke, that’s all! I can also give you a valuable Halberd Jade, if you learn Spear Mastery, you can improve significantly with it."
Yi Tian didn’t reply, giving him another chance to organize his words.
"I’ve collected some Gold, roughly ten million units, I’ll give them all to you, is it alright, hurry over..."
Truly at the end of his resources.
The Lord across him is willing to sacrifice for his life.
"If Cangming doesn’t die, I’ll take him. If he’s dead, I’ll take all his belongings."
Yi Tian also says to the employer.
Cangming’s special talent Unyielding Will seems to prevent Lord Contract.
But first imprison him, Yi Tian wants to rely on his charisma to subdue him, doesn’t seem too practical.
