Stunt Double:

Consumables

Perfect

Effect: When used, summons a clone to act in your place. The real body enters an invisible state. The clone cannot be attacked and disappears immediately if attacked.

Duration: 300 seconds

Cooldown time: 1000 seconds

Note: A sunny, cheerful guy?!

Having Perfect fooled the group with this, Old Wang used a bottle of invisibility Potion and then piloted his Mecha to chase after them again.

As for running away?

Why run away when you can fight? The opponents are just a few level 50s; it's not like he hasn't killed them before.

The group of people followed the slowly flying Stunt Double without attacking until the stuntman disappeared.

When the double disappeared, they looked at each other blankly, clearly not understanding why.

I don't understand, but I've confirmed that I've lost them.

"We've lost them, what do we do?" one of them asked, looking at the spot where the Stunt Double had disappeared.

"I'll go find someone to buy his position and figure out a way to follow him. The Venerable One has given a death order: we must seize his Mecha. It's very important to us!" said the leader of the group.

"Can the Mana Mech still be taken?" Old Wang suddenly appeared from the Void and asked.

"Of course he can. As long as enough two-legged sheep are sacrificed, there is nothing the Venerable One cannot do..." The man finally realized what was happening as he spoke, and then they all looked at the person who had suddenly appeared in their group.

(Dishes)

When did you show up here? You were eavesdropping on our conversation! And how did you hack into our Chat Channel?

Forget it, never mind!

Get him!

Just as the group was about to make their move, a giant Flame Ghost Face appeared behind Old Wang.

Although they couldn't hear him in space, they knew he must be laughing "fufufu".

Before they could react, the fiery demon face enveloped them, and the intense heat left them no time to react before they were charred into charcoal.

Although they were of high rank, they still couldn't withstand Old Wang's attacks.

After the Flame Demon had burned the group to ashes, it returned and smiled at Old Wang. Old Wang patted its head like he would a pet, and it happily returned to the Flame Orb.

After dealing with the White Lotus Assassin, Old Wang picked up their loot and flew back to his Homeworld Base.

The several White Lotus Mecha only dropped one item: [Advanced White Lotus Certificate].

Advanced White Lotus Certificate (Perfect): Proof of killing a high-ranking member of the White Lotus Cult.

On the way back, Old Wang kept thinking, "Is the 'two-legged sheep' he mentioned actually a person? If so, what are these White Lotus Cult people?"

Back at their Homeworld Base, after handing in his mission to Senior Colonel Guan, Old Wang asked, "Brother Guan, do you know anything about the White Lotus Cult?"

Senior Colonel Guan was taken aback by this, then asked with a serious expression, "Why are you asking about them?"

"Nothing much, we just ran into them on the way back!" Old Wang showed Senior Colonel Guan the evidence that several White Lotus Cult Sect members had dropped and said.

"You killed members of the White Lotus Cult! And high-ranking members at that!"

Well done! Keep this safe; you can exchange it for Merit at the Quartermaster's.

"I can't say much about the White Lotus Cult Sect. I can only tell you that they are the mortal enemies of my Azure Dragon Legion. For more information, you need to ask General Wang," said Senior Colonel Guan.

Old Wang nodded upon hearing this, carefully put away the White Lotus certificate, and then went to the command center where Wang Dalong was located.

After explaining the whole story to Wang Dalong, Old Wang noticed that the other man seemed to suddenly become somewhat melancholy.

"You've been involved in General Huang's affairs for so long, you must know something about the origins of the White Lotus Cult, right?" Wang Dalong asked.

Old Wang nodded immediately; he knew that the White Lotus Cult Sect originated from the Obelisk Experiment.

"I only recently learned about the Obelisk Experiment from back then. The White Lotus Cult was a complete surprise to our Azure Dragon Legion."

That year, they suddenly crossed the border blockade line, which triggered an alarm. Our Azure Dragon Legion went to pursue them and a fierce conflict ensued.

In that battle, we lost more than 700 men and killed five members of the White Lotus Cult. It was a complete and utter defeat.

We subsequently made several expeditions to the Outer Domain to suppress them, but each attempt ended in failure.

Moreover, the White Lotus Cult Sect would frequently intrude into the Planet, capturing civilians, committing murder and arson—they were utterly wicked!

Over the years, there have been hundreds of incidents of people breaking through checkpoints every year, but 90% of them are people from the White Lotus Cult. There are very few genuine Insectoid incidents.

"It's no exaggeration to say that the White Lotus Cult is the mortal enemy of the entire Azure Dragon Legion..." Wang Dalong.

After that, he not only told Old Wang about the White Lotus Cult, but also introduced him to the Azure Dragon Legion, implying that he wanted him to join.

"I'm afraid that won't work; I'll have to disappoint you!" Old Wang.

"What do you mean? The Azure Dragon Legion isn't suitable for you?" Wang Dalong.

"Of course not. I actually agree with the Azure Dragon Legion, but I'm ready to take sides and can't drag Azure Dragon Legion down with me," Old Wang.

"Alright, let me know when you've lined up properly. Considering your eye for talent, the Azure Dragon Legion will also take a look. Neutrality is too difficult in this era!" Wang Dalong.

"I'll try my best, but I have one more question," Old Wang.

"Ask!"

Is the White Lotus Cult very powerful?

"They are very strong, possibly even stronger than the Azure Dragon Legion. They have at least seven Legendary experts," Wang Dalong.

"That's very strong!"

After learning about the strength of the White Lotus Cult, Old Wang knew he needed to put his small goals on hold.

Lacking confidence in defeating these seven Legendary, all his goals became mere fantasies.

Even if he killed everyone else in the White Lotus Cult, as long as these Legendary Mecha still existed, they wouldn't be considered wiped out.

When he left Wang Dalong gave him another task, the name of which was [Slay the White Lotus Fiend].

As the name suggests, this mission involves killing members of the White Lotus Cult. The White Lotus Cult has three types of disciples, who drop Advanced Contest Tokens, Intermediate Token, and Low-Level Token respectively.

Besides the disciples, there are also White Lotus Cult bosses and Legendary who possess Special Token.

Starting today, Old Wang will receive 10,000 experience points for killing someone with Low-Level Token, 100,000 for a mid-level token, and 500,000 for a high-level token.

Killing someone with Special Token grants an instant reward of 1 million experience points, and these are additional rewards.

He can still take these tokens to the Quartermaster to exchange for Merit, and he won't be shortchanged at all.

The Azure Dragon Legion's Merit warehouse is now much more abundant than it used to be.

Besides Epic items, all kinds of items are available.

Even the extremely rare Legendary Socketing Stone, there is more than one set in the warehouse.

At the same time, it was the first time Old Wang had learned that this thing had a set bonus, and the most overpowered set had five pieces. The set bonus was that after attacking, there was a 20% chance to restore 20% of the user's health, and there was no cooldown.

If this thing gets into Old Wang's hands, it'll basically have unlimited power. As long as you can't kill him instantly at full health, you'll just have to wear him down until you die.

However, these set stones cannot be obtained simply by Merit; they also require a high level of the Azure Dragon Legion Reputation.

Even for someone like Old Wang, unless he grinds for a year or two, or encounters some special stroke of luck, he can basically forget about it.

After handing over several White Lotus certificates to the Quartermaster, Old Wang didn't exchange them for anything, because he didn't really need the things he could exchange them for at the moment.

"Have you guys finished the prerequisite quests? I'm so bored playing alone!"

Old Wang, who was on his way to the next mission location, harassed the group from the Future.

"Do you think we'll listen to you?" Old Ma.

"That solves it, doesn't it?" Old Wang.

"You fucking wait until I log off!"

"What? You think you can beat me after I'm offline?"

"Ugh! I'm so angry! Let's all sign up to go offline and beat this bastard up!"

"Holy crap!"

"I'm going too!"

+1

"..."

"... You're just jealous!"

Looking at the dozens of people who had instantly flooded the screen, Old Wang said somewhat guiltily.

"You're right, we're just jealous. You just wait! Hahaha!"

Normal Player from the Future Guild looked at each other in disbelief, finding it utterly absurd. Were all the top players this unreliable?

Is this the world of the strong?

Although they don't understand, they will try their best to learn.

They're like a group of devout apprentices now, and if a girl asks them, "Would you abuse me?"

They would definitely answer, "If you like, I can learn!"

That's how reliable it is!
