Recruiting subordinate lords, beautiful women get priority!
"System, initiate the Bloody Battle!!" Su Ye's voice rang out.
A system notification sounded.
[Ding: Consume one Bloody Battle Invitation to initiate Bloody Battle!]
"Activate." Su Ye's voice fell.
[Ding: The Bloody Battle has begun. You have one minute to prepare!]
[Ding: Novice Period begins! Bloody Battle activated! Novice Buff in effect! Decomposition to obtain Origin Crystal!!!]
The boundaries of the Territory are constantly Distortion, as if it is about to Destruction.
One after another, terrifying and ferocious humanoid creatures emerged from the border.
It has ferocious mouthparts, compound eyes, and sickle-like arms, and its body is covered with an insect carapace.
The All-Knowing Eye!
Name: Bugman
Rank: Silver Nine-Star
Rank: Tenth Rank
"The Zerg!!" Su Ye Zerg, looking at the monsters that appeared in this Bloody Battle Invitation.
One of the Scourge Faction, and if we're talking about which Scourge Faction gives lords the biggest headache, it's the Zerg.
There's only one reason: Bugs don't experience fear or pain. They only hunt for resources to feed the Zerg, much like Robot. Yet, they are living beings, which is the most absurd thing about the Zerg.
Once the Zerg are discovered, it's usually a fight to the death. Either the overlord dies, or the Bugs Zerg wiped out, and only then will the war end.
Whether it's the Abyss, the Warp, or the Void, all other things evoke fear and pain.
Of course, there is also a Scourge Faction that do not experience fear or pain: the Mechanical Scourge.
A highly advanced technological civilization, entirely constructed of Mechanical Life forms, but this civilization is hated by all factions.
Other factions at least have the possibility of cooperation, but this faction has absolutely no possibility of cooperation; they hate the existence of all flesh and blood.
Therefore, when the Mechanical Scourge appears, all factions will tacitly agree to eliminate Mechanical Scourge first, since this faction abhors all flesh and blood creatures.
They believe that flesh-and-blood creatures are pests of the entire world and need to Purification and cleansed.
Hmm, in a way, the Mechanical Scourge" isn't entirely wrong.
Of course, the Mechanical Scourge is the Mechanical Scourge, Tech Lord is the Tech Lord; they cannot be confused. The Mechanical Scourge is a legitimate Mechanical Life form.
Tech Lord is simply someone who is highly advanced; the two are not the same at all, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe them as worlds apart.
Back to the present.
Su Ye looked at the approaching Zerg. Lilith was holding off the enemy all by herself, all for the sake of Rapid Upgrade.
Meanwhile, the others began harvesting Zerg to help their new companions level up.
Everything is proceeding smoothly and in an orderly manner.
Su Ye watched Lilith's relentless Slaughter.
A private message notification popped up.
Su Ye opened it and saw that it was sent by Lin Xiaoxiao.
[Little Merchant: Is the Boss Here?]
[Otherworld Traveler: Yes, what's up?]
[Little Merchant: Please approve the trade request, sir.]
[Otherworld Traveler: OK!]
Su Ye immediately agreed to the transaction request sent by Lin Xiaoxiao.
"Hmm?" Su Ye looked at the items he had received in the transaction.
"2.8 million Origin Crystal —this is what Su Ye should get, plus twenty Troop Refresh Recruitment Card." Before Su Ye could even ask, Lin Xiaoxiao sent him the message.
[Little Merchant: Boss, these twenty Troop Refresh Recruitment Card are for you.]
[Otherworld Traveler: Thank you very much, little boss.]
[Little Merchant: It was such a pleasure working with you, Boss! I'm going back to gathering materials now. I'll contact you later.]
[Otherworld Traveler: Okay.]
Su Ye immediately closed the message panel.
Looking at the twenty Troop Refresh Recruitment Card that Lin Xiaoxiao brought, he didn't ask any questions. Lin Xiaoxiao's gains were considerable, but there were no major problems.
Su Ye opened the Chat Channel and glanced at its contents.
[Do any of you big shots have extra Origin Crystal? I'd like to borrow some; we can sign a contract, nine out of ten will be given, and thirteen will be returned!]
[The person upstairs is dreaming. At this point, everyone's focused on making a final push for the rankings. Who's going to lend you anything? You might as well sell yourself.]
[Yeah, either I'll just honestly get through the Novice Period and be a Vegetable Farmer Lord, that's not bad either. Anyway, I'm just lying here, feeling great.]
[You good-for-nothing, you've all become lords. Don't you want to become a god?]
[You upstairs are so promising, you should become a god.]
Su Ye shook his head as he read the nonsense in the Chat Channel, then proceeded to spam the chat.
[Otherworld Traveler: Seeking subordinate lords, female lords preferred, please DM if interested!!]
[Otherworld Traveler: Seeking subordinate lords, female lords preferred, please DM if interested!!]
[Otherworld Traveler: Seeking subordinate lords, female lords preferred, please DM if interested!!]
Su Ye immediately spammed the Chat Channel. Su Ye had no choice but to try to find more subordinate lords now, otherwise he would lose his advantage after the Novice Period.
As for why she's a beautiful female lord, damn it, if they don't accept women, do they accept men?
The lord in the Chat Channel watched Su Ye spam the chat.
[Is this guy crazy? Taking in vassal lords, and prioritizing beautiful women? Is he looking for sex slaves?]
[Possibly, after all, aren't vassal lords like that?]
[Hey, I'm from Chengdu, is that okay?]
[Holy crap, Nan Tong is even in this? That's outrageous!]
Su Ye glanced at the messages in the Chat Channel, completely unconcerned about continuing to spam the chat.
Lin Xiaoxiao Lin Xiaoxiao, who often lurked in the Chat Channel looking for people with "Golden Fortune" or higher, naturally saw Su Ye's message.
"Hehe, this partner is quite clever. He understood the true role of a subordinate lord without needing to be told. It's not too late to take him in now." Lin Xiaoxiao thought with a smile as she watched this scene.
As for why she didn't accept it? There was no need.
While scrolling through the Chat Channel, Su Ye kept track of Lilith's situation.
As time went by.
Su Ye looked at his private messages and realized that hardly anyone was contacting him properly. Instead, it was Nan Tong who was sending all sorts of messages, asking for money or other random requests.
Four hours have passed.
Seven-colored light emanated from Lilith's body.
That's a sign of promotion.
Su Ye's eyes gleamed as he looked at the light emanating from Lilith: purple for Pride, red for Wrath, pink for Lust, gold for Greed, green for Envy, blue for Sloth, and orange for Gluttony —seven colors, each corresponding to a different Original Sin. (Lust is supposed to be pink; some say it's blue or purple, but here it's pink. Sloth is supposed to be blue or gray, but here it's blue. Just wanted to clarify; I checked the information and didn't write it randomly.)
Within Su Ye's Territory, the light of the Seven Deadly Sins shone, constantly intertwining within Su Ye's Territory, and then converging on Lilith.
"God Emperor!" Lilith's voice rang out, and Lilith, enveloped in seven-colored light, appeared beside Su Ye.
"Thalys, it's your turn," Su Ye's voice rang out.
Thalys replaced Lilith in guarding the area alone and began the Slaughter.
