As the eerie energy pollutes the planet, transportation infrastructure on Earth is gradually being contaminated and rendered unusable.
Once bustling transportation routes have become deserted, and airplanes have long since ceased operation.
Under these circumstances, Yun Xi and Kelisha had no other choice but to use Space Teleportation Scroll. The talisman shone with dazzling light, and the surrounding space instantly distorted.
A strong sense of dizziness washed over me, and the whole world seemed to spin.
After the light faded, they arrived at their destination.
Yun Xi took in her surroundings and frowned slightly. This time, her location was surprisingly in the middle of a bustling city.
The once bustling and noisy streets were now eerily silent, with the doors and windows of the shops on both sides tightly shut, and the walls covered with strange patterns.
Garbage and debris were everywhere, and the air was filled with a putrid stench. Occasionally, a cold wind would blow by, stirring up dust and sand from the ground, sending a chill down one's spine.
Yun Xi...
The current situation of the Jin Kingdom is vastly different from that of the Flower Country. The Flower Country still has order and hope, while this place seems to have been abandoned by the world and has fallen into an abyss of despair.
The once bustling city is now dilapidated, filled with an atmosphere of despair and helplessness, which cannot help but make people feel sad.
The exact coordinates of the Serendipity Mission are located under a street lamp, where three groups of people are surrounding the area.
Judging from their attire, the first group was the Slaughterer Association. They were dressed in black, tight-fitting outfits, and each of them wore a cold and ruthless expression. Their icy eyes and the aura they exuded were chilling.
The people on the other side were probably from the Biyouquan Research Institute... They were wearing blue robes, their expressions serious and focused, as if they were plotting something.
Thirdly, there were the Jin Kingdom's troops. They wore uniforms, carried guns and various weapons from the Godfall Continent, and their eyes revealed a hint of confusion, clearly thrown off balance by the sudden arrival of these two groups.
The outermost group was a bunch of lone wolves, watching the spectacle from the sidelines, but not daring to actually get close.
These lone individuals may be local residents or people who have learned about the mission in the strange realm, but under the suppression of the three forces, they can only play the role of bystanders in this fierce competition.
Yun Xi and Kelisha exchanged a glance and slowly walked into the group of casual players, observing the three groups of people without making a sound.
Of these three forces, the Slaughterer Association clearly holds the advantage.
The leader of the Slaughterer Association had an indifferent face filled with arrogance and disdain. His cold eyes seemed to proclaim his dominant status, inspiring awe and fear in all who looked upon him.
The leader of the Biyouquan Research Institute was somewhat mysterious and unpredictable. He lowered his head, and strands of hair on his forehead covered his eyes, making him difficult to understand.
He unconsciously clasped his hands together in front of him, his knuckles turning slightly white from the pressure, as if he were weighing the pros and cons.
In contrast, the forces in the Jin Kingdom's territory appeared somewhat uneasy. They gripped their weapons tightly, their gazes shifting back and forth between the Slaughterer Association and the Biyouquan Research Institute, their expressions carrying a barely perceptible tension.
Faced with these two powerful foreign forces, they knew their own strength was insignificant, but for the sake of this special Serendipity Mission, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and deal with it.
Just then, the leader of the Slaughterer Association spoke up. His deep, imposing voice instantly broke the silence. "What are you all standing here for? Are you waiting for me to make my move?"
His gaze fell upon two other groups of people.
That gaze was extremely cold, piercing straight at the Jin Kingdom's natives Biyouquan Research Institute.
Among the Jin Kingdom Official Forces, someone couldn't help but tremble, gripping the weapon even tighter until their knuckles bulged.
The leader of the Biyouquan Research Institute slowly raised his head, his gaze meeting that of the leader of the Slaughterer Association, a barely perceptible hint of annoyance flashing in his eyes.
"Sir, I don't think this Serendipity Mission is your exclusive privilege." The leader of the Biyouquan Research Institute finally spoke, his voice very calm.
As he spoke, the blue-robed figures behind him straightened their postures.
The leader of the Slaughterer Association sneered and said coldly, "Hmph, you think you can compete with me?" His voice was icy and threatening.
The leader of the Biyouquan Research Institute remained unmoved and responded with neither humility nor arrogance, "These Serendipity Mission should be decided by each individual. Your aggressive approach is a bit too domineering."
The Jin Kingdom Official Forces silently watched the two sides confront each other, their eyes filled with anxiety and helplessness.
I don't know whether I should take this opportunity to join forces with the Biyouquan Research Institute to fight against the Slaughterer Association, or find another way to protect my own interests.
The Biyouquan Research Institute is well-known to the Slaughterer Association and is also known to be extremely powerful on the Godfall Continent.
That chilling reputation and that overwhelming power made people tremble at the mere mention of it.
However, the core of the unclaimed star is too important to the Biyouquan Research Institute. It is not only a precious resource, but also a key to the future development of the entire force.
They must secure the position of the first-star master to elevate the Biyouquan Research Institute to the next level.
Moreover, the area where their Biyouquan Research Institute is located on the Godfall Continent is very special, easy to leave but difficult to enter, and very far away from the Slaughterer Association, which reduces many of their worries.
Even though Shinji has a grudge against the Slaughterer Association, it won't be easy for them to take revenge.
Their geographical advantage gave them more confidence and less fear when facing the Slaughterer Association.
"Senior, how about this? I can make a deal with you: your faction withdraws from this Star Core competition, and we will give you more benefits." The leader of the Biyouquan Research Institute said sincerely, trying to persuade the leader of the Slaughterer Association.
However, the leader of the Slaughterer Association just sneered and didn't take these words to heart at all.
To him, such a suggestion was an insult.
Just as he was about to start a fight, a beautiful woman beside him whispered a few words in his ear.
"My lord, please remember that our mission is fraught with peril, and we must not act rashly."
The young man's face turned cold, and after thinking for a moment, he suppressed his anger.
The Biyouquan Research Institute and the Slaughterer Association remained deadlocked, each weighing the pros and cons.
But unsurprisingly, they all subconsciously ignored the Jin Kingdom Official Forces.
The Jin Kingdom's forces in the region were left out in the cold, filled with anger and helplessness, yet they dared not speak out.
Because both the Slaughterer Association and the Biyouquan Research Institute sent personnel whose ranks far exceeded their own.
