A burst of black flame transported Zhang Lang to an unfamiliar altar. (Google search for more information)
The torch in the center of the altar projected the instructions for the Divine Punishment mission, and the number of applicants at the bottom showed 777.
"777? Good number!" Zhang Lang opened the bounty list. The current number of wanted criminals is 805. It seems that more than 95% of the wanted criminals have joined this mission.
"Everyone thinks it's free points, right?" Xu laughed. "As long as you follow behind Blood Gloves, you're guaranteed at least 1,500 points. Why not take advantage of it?"
Zhang Lang's lips curled up; he had underestimated human greed.
Becoming a bounty hunter demonstrates their willingness to risk everything for profit, especially for a mission that seems almost certain to succeed and offers substantial rewards. However, they haven't properly considered why the reward for this mission is so generous.
"There are still more than thirty people who have remained rational." Zhang Lang looked at the final number: "After this, the number of wanted criminals in the Shen clan will be in the double digits."
Because the mission forbade him from bringing any items in, and all his points were sealed, Zhang Lang had nothing to prepare. He sat cross-legged in the middle of the altar, closed his eyes to rest, and adjusted his physical condition to its best.
Not only him, but also 777 wanted criminals were poised to go at hundreds of altars throughout the Shen tribe.
Some of them were originally wanted criminals, while others had taken on bounties specifically for the mission in the past few days.
"Sister Hongyan, everything is ready!" Third Brother, carrying a large gun and a bulging satchel, proudly raised his sparsely haired head.
"Don't just grab weapons," Sister Hongyan instructed. "This mission can only last three days at most. Have you brought all the supplies?"
"I brought it with me!" Liao Erlong patted his satchel: "Enough for a week's worth of military rations, plus various medicines."
Sister Hongyan nodded: "Awei, where's Xiaoyun?"
"Don't worry, I've got all the contact sorted out!" Ah Wei patted his chest. "I'll be able to contact her as soon as we enter the mission world... but she's going to be traveling with her brother, so she might not be able to take us with her, but she'll allow us to follow her from a short distance."
"That's good." Hongyan nodded, but for some reason, her woman's intuition still made her feel uneasy.
"Erlong, do you think this mission will go as smoothly as we imagine?"
Liao Erlong shrugged. "I'm a little worried too. Compared to the difficulty of the mission, the reward is a bit too generous. But I really can't figure out how that Reincarnator assassin could possibly fight against over seven hundred wanted criminals, including Qi Defei, all by himself. And these wanted criminals all have the extra blessing of the altar, and their equipment is also superior..."
"So what do you think will happen?" Sister Hongyan continued to ask.
"I estimate that this reincarnated assassin is a type of assassin who excels at stealth and ambush. Therefore, an island with complex terrain is essentially his home turf."
Liao Erlong analyzed, "The fact that the altar can offer such a mission means that this guy has the ability to easily wipe out a team of Reincarnators. Although we have a lot of people, we are too scattered. If an ordinary team is caught by him, they will basically die without a doubt."
"Therefore, I suggest that unless we can act together, it's best not to follow Qi Defei's group. Otherwise, if we happen to run into one of Qi Defei's Reincarnator assassins, we might not even have a chance to call for help."
"I think that after we enter this world, we should stay away from the direction of the Reincarnator Killer. Awei should keep in touch with Xiaoyun at all times. We'll go there after Qi Defei catches the killer."
Sister Hongyan nodded upon hearing this: "What you say makes sense, let's do it that way!"
They had just finished discussing their plan when the altar's teleportation timer expired. As the altar countdown continued, everyone transformed into flames…
When they came to their senses, they found themselves standing on a beautiful shallow beach, with blue sky and white clouds above them and the water surface as smooth as a mirror reflecting their images below.
"Is this the island?" Third Brother scratched his head; the scene was quite different from what he had imagined.
"No, look over there!" Liao Erlong reminded them. Everyone looked up and saw that not far from them, there were many fully armed Reincarnators standing in groups of three or five. At a rough glance, there were probably several hundred of them.
"Are those all contestants?" Sister Hongyan frowned. "Aren't they scattered across the island? How come they're so close together?"
Just as I was wondering, a clear female voice rang out.
"Ah Wei!"
Turning my head, I saw a slender girl dressed as a student running towards me with a knife in her hand.
"Xiaoyun?"
Upon seeing his lover, Awei excitedly stepped forward. Seeing their sweet interaction, everyone couldn't help but sigh. Who would have thought that this seemingly pure and lovely female student was actually a female demon with a bounty exceeding eight hundred points?
"Xiaoyun, where is this place?" Awei asked, voicing his doubts. "Weren't we supposed to be teleported directly to the island?"
Xiaoyun nodded: "My brother said that the mission probably hasn't officially started yet, and there should be supplementary rules. This is very common in large-scale missions."
Everyone nodded. At that moment, huge characters lit up the sky, and a deafening electronic voice began to explain the new rules.
"Before officially entering the island, based on a comprehensive evaluation of each participant's enhancement quantity, quality, battle record, number of missions, and bounty situation, we are now rating each participant's value. Each person is worth at least one star, with no upper limit."
"The final evaluation will be displayed above the participants' heads and seen by everyone. Participants with higher star ratings are more likely to arouse the hunting desire of the Reincarnator Killer, so please pay close attention."
After he finished speaking, random characters began to flash above everyone's heads, which stabilized into specific star levels after a few seconds.
"Am I a star?" Liao Erlong looked at the shining star above his head, then looked up at his third brother.
"I have two!" Third Brother laughed loudly, holding up the weapon in his hand.
"Wow, Sister Hongyan is amazing!" someone exclaimed. Liao Erlong looked up and saw three stars arranged in a triangle above Sister Hongyan's head.
Liao Erlong looked around and saw that most of the people in their team had one star, only Third Brother and Awei had two stars, and only Sister Hongyan had three stars.
Looking around, the other teams are mostly the same, with one-star teams making up about 60% and very few teams having three stars or higher.
"Wow, Xiaoyun, you're amazing! You have five stars!"
Ah Wei exclaimed in surprise. Everyone looked over and saw five stars arranged in two rows above Xiao Yun's head.
"No wonder she's Qi Defei's sister... I can't afford to offend her..." Liao Erlong shook his head with a sneer.
"I wonder how many stars my brother has..." Xiaoyun turned her head to look, and saw that not far away, many contestants stepped back to make way for a team.
The team consisted of five people, and the leader, a tall, thin man with a hooked nose, was none other than Qi Defei.
Standing next to him was a bald, muscular man, over two meters tall, wearing a tight-fitting black combat suit that accentuated his bodybuilder-like muscular physique, with nine stars on his head.
Beside the burly man was a wheelchair, in which sat a gaunt old man wearing a loose-fitting kimono. If it weren't for the seven stars on his head, he would probably be mistaken for a patient who had been hammered to death.
On the other side of Qi Defei was a tall, slender, and noble-looking blond white man in a tailcoat. He had a rapier at his waist, a large ruby ring on his finger that was particularly eye-catching, and seven stars on his head.
Beside the blond man was a short-haired woman whose body was almost entirely replaced by mechanical prosthetics, except for her face. This made one wonder if her beautiful face was also an artificially designed replacement made of special materials.
Of course, no one dared to ask, because this woman had eight stars above her head!
Seeing this impressive star rating, even a fool could guess that this must be a hero-level bounty hunter, a master from Blood Gloves!
Faced with such a formidable opponent, the ordinary contestants retreated one after another, but many others gravitated towards Qi Defei and his group.
These people are mostly at least three stars, and quite a few are four or five stars, so they must all be members of Blood Gloves.
The Blood Gloves only grant access to the strong; it seems the rumors are true.
"Brother!" Qi Deyun grabbed Awei and excitedly ran over to introduce him, "This is the boyfriend I told you about, Awei."
Faced with such a fierce person, Awei couldn't help but feel nervous. He tightly gripped Xiaoyun's hand and bowed to Qi Defei with trembling hands.
"Hello, Mr. Qi..."
Qi Defei looked at the young man in front of him, gave a seemingly kind smile, and patted Awei on the shoulder:
"Don't be nervous, kid. I won't interfere too much with my sister's feelings. Whether she likes a great hero or a mediocre good-for-nothing, I don't care. But there's one condition: if he dares to treat my sister badly..."
As he spoke, Qi Defei leaned forward and whispered in Awei's ear, "You know..."
Ah Wei shuddered immediately and nodded hastily, "Don't worry, big brother, I'll definitely treat Xiao Yun well!"
Although the contestants are not allowed to harm each other under the rules of this task, Awei has no doubt that if he dares to wrong Xiaoyun, Qi Defei will have a million ways to deal with him after they get out.
"Hey bro, stop scaring people!" Xiaoyun complained.
"No, I was just joking," Qi Defei laughed.
For some reason, even though his smile remained unchanged, when Qi Defei looked at Xiao Yun, he seemed so bright and kind, completely different from when he looked at Awei.
As he spoke, the garbled text above Qi Defei's head stopped jumping and finally stopped.
"One, two, three, four, five... thirteen?! Thirteen stars!"
The scene erupted in cheers. This most wanted criminal was worth an astonishing thirteen stars!
A strength that surpasses everyone else!
As everyone was shocked, an electronic voice in the sky announced: "Now, all participants have completed their star-setting. The mission is about to begin. Please prepare yourselves."
After he finished speaking, the sky lit up with the final countdown.
