Appearance

"Young Lu, you're offering a bounty?" A hint of excitement flickered in the Lord Shen's eyes.

"Yes, a bounty!"

Lu Yan'an's eyes gleamed. "Whether it's a strong person from my own race or a strong person from Alien Race, it's all the same. When a strong person possesses a treasure, no one dares to act recklessly, because trying to seize it could cost them their lives. But when a weak person possesses a treasure, it attracts covetousness and leads to robbery! Now, that Thick Earth King deliberately spread rumors and used the King Shenmu as bait to lure me into action. Since I can no longer keep a low profile, then I must teach them a lesson. A good beating is better than a hundred blows!"

"Either don't do it at all, or do it thoroughly!"

Lu Yan'an's voice carried a chilling undertone, "Only in this way can we solve this once and for all! This time, I intend to intimidate the powerful figures of all races and let them know the consequences of offending me!"

That very day, Lu Yan'an publicly issued a bounty, causing countless powerful figures in the Human Faction across the Yuanming Continent to gasp in astonishment. This was because Lu Yan'an's bounty this time... was not a private bounty, but a public bounty sent through the Military System to all allies in the same faction throughout the entire Yuanming Continent war zone!

Before the public reward was offered, Lu Yan'an had already transferred the reward money to the "Military System" public account.

100 million Hunyuan Unit!

This is the "bounty amount" for this offer: once the coordinates of the Thick Earth King are confirmed, a bounty of 100 million Hunyuan Unit will be awarded!

"This is insane!"

"This human 'Absolute' has really gone mad. He's been hiding in the Barracks Base for so long, patiently waiting, but now he's suddenly offering a bounty on the Thick Earth King! 100 million Hunyuan Unit! Countless Feng Wang would be drooling with envy. They could hardly earn even tens of millions of Hunyuan Unit in countless Years, and they even face the constant risk of death! But now, just by finding a coordinate, they can get such a huge reward."

"That's insane."

"100 million! They really are incredibly wealthy! It seems that the rumored 'Absolute' has indeed obtained the inheritance from the Secret Abyss of the Yuanming Continent."

"This company is truly incredibly wealthy!"

"Haha, this is brilliant! This is a true clash of titans! A large number of powerful Alien Race are watching him on the Yuanming Continent, and 'Jue' still dares to offer a bounty on the Thick Earth King. It seems he has made preparations. This battle is likely to be spectacular."

Who is the Thick Earth King?

"'Absolute' has offered a bounty on the Thick Earth King, so it seems the Thick Earth King is the powerful figure behind this information. Moreover, according to the latest news, the Thick Earth King seems to have some ulterior motives. No wonder 'Absolute' is willing to spend 100 million Hunyuan Unit to find out his coordinates; the Thick Earth King is certainly not one to do anything decent!"

The entire Human Faction on the Yuanming Continent was in an uproar. After all, only a very small number of people were Feng Wang experts; the vast majority were Marquis Immortal or Ordinary Immortal. For them, 100 million Hunyuan Unit was a huge fortune, enough to make each of them envious and crazy. They wouldn't dare to fight against Feng Wang experts from Alien Race, but they would dare to occasionally discover a Feng Wang from their own race, even if it was just to deliver a message.

This kind of thing, which is almost risk-free, can be considered the most cost-effective thing to do on this Outer Region Battlefield!

Thus, finding the Thick Earth King became a task for everyone!

Overwhelmingly, countless immortals from Human Faction began a frantic search for the Thick Earth King. Just as the Alien Race had searched for "Absolute" some time ago, countless powerful figures within the Human Faction were now searching for the Thick Earth King. However, compared to the two, the Human Faction's search was far more frantic and proactive.

After all, this time it's a publicly announced, huge reward!

But...

One day, two days, half a month, a month...

There has been no news about the Thick Earth King.

"What's going on with the Thick Earth King?" Lu Yan'an, who was almost at the Yuanming Continent in his spaceship, frowned and whispered in the control room, "No, he released the news to force me to show myself. Now that I've publicly offered a bounty on him, he should be making a move. Besides, the news of my bounty has spread like wildfire; it should have reached his ears by now. He should know I've offered a bounty on him..."

"But he disappeared?"

"Could it be that they've left the Yuanming Continent?" Lu Yan'an shook his head slightly. No, that's not right. The Thick Earth King forced him to show himself; it shouldn't be that simple.

"Lu Yan'an, I have a feeling that the Thick Earth King is just hiding, silently observing how things develop. He will show himself," the Lord Shen said. "That guy has never been a good person! After understanding your true strength, he still dared to provoke you, which proves how composed he is! A person like that wouldn't be so scared as to run away when facing you."

"Mm." Lu Yan'an nodded.

"All! All!"

"Young Lu, you've received a call invitation and an email at the same time. The call and email share the same ID and are from the same sender," the voice of the Lord Shen repeatedly reminded him.

Lu Yan'an lightly tapped the air, and a screen appeared. He first accepted the call invitation and then opened the email. On the screen appeared a Crow Person shrouded in a black robe, who said in a low voice, "I have discovered the human faction's powerful figure, 'Thick Earth King.' The coordinates are..."

The content of the email next to it is the same.

"You found out?" Lu Yan'an stood up abruptly, a smile appearing on his face.

"Very good. Once I confirm it on site, the bounty in the Military Merit System is yours!" Lu Yan'an nodded.

"Then please arrive as soon as possible, sir. I'm afraid that if we take too long, the bounty target, 'Thick Earth King,' might slip away," the Immortal Crow Person hurriedly said.

Smack

The communication was cut off, and a question came from the Lord Shen: "The Thick Earth King has appeared? Could there be some kind of trap?"

"I've shown myself. I don't know if there will be any problems, but I have no other choice." Lu Yan'an nodded.

"This is a life-or-death battle, where life and death hang by a thread. Even with a decisive advantage, we cannot be careless," the Lord Shen warned. "Moreover, since this person dared to show up, it proves that he is now fully prepared! You must be careful. Put yourself in his shoes; if you were in this position, would you dare to come out without adequate preparation?"

"Don't worry! We'll deal with whatever comes our way. Let's see how he makes his move first, and then I'll counter it accordingly! With my resources, I'm not someone that can be easily shaken by Peak King!"

Lu Yan'an smiled slightly, then his consciousness vanished and he left the Virtual Universe Network.

Inside the Lava Cave on the Yuanming Continent.

The Thick Earth King was hovering above a volcano. His large and small detectors were only "detecting" but had their "signal shielding" turned off, which is why the lucky Crow Person Marquis Immortal from the Human Faction was able to discover the Thick Earth King using his detectors.

"You've spotted me?"

"A mere lad Marquis Immortal," Thick Earth King murmured. "It's up to you to lure that 'Absolute' into the game. Tsk tsk, 100 million Hunyuan Unit, lucky little fellow."

"That 'Absolute' must have guessed that I deliberately exposed my coordinates! Heh, a Soul Master, Feng Wang -level expert! Do you really think you can roam freely in this Fourth Star Sector Battlefield with just these identities? Now, let's see who has prepared more contingency plans!"

Thick Earth King carefully sensed the spatial fluctuations.

He studied the laws of earth and space. As a Peak King expert, he was already capable of Teleportation with difficulty, and his perception of spatial fluctuations was naturally extremely sensitive.

"There are unusual spatial fluctuations! It's God Kingdom Teleportation!" Thick Earth King's eyes lit up. "It really has arrived!"

Several thousand kilometers away from the Thick Earth King, the aura of Immortal Divine Power rippled, and two figures appeared simultaneously in an open space.

"Thank you, Tianmeng," Lu Yan'an said.

"If there are any more transactions like this in the future, you can come to me. I like friends like you who are quick to pay! Hahaha!" A burst of laughter came from the sky, and then the figure of the Tianmeng King disappeared into thin air.

"This guy really went far. If it weren't for the God Kingdom traveling with him, Thick Earth King would probably be getting impatient by now." Lu Yan'an shook his head, and at the same time mentally instructed, "My Lord Shen, do you have Thick Earth King's coordinates?"

"The Thick Earth King is in a cave in the Lava Mountain Range, 3201 kilometers away, hovering above a volcano. Although his detectors are on, they haven't blocked signals from outsiders, so he's obviously waiting for you. And judging from the current situation, he should have already discovered you!"

"Lord Shen analyzed it and said."

"I knew he was setting a trap."

"He knows I'm prepared," Lu Yan'an chuckled. "He's not stupid, and neither am I. We both know... we're prepared, and we know that as long as neither side backs down, this battle is inevitable! Now, it all depends on the backup plans we've prepared!"

"My Lord Shen, the intelligence has been confirmed. The bounty will be awarded to that lucky Marquis Immortal," Lu Yan'an said.

"Yes."

Different statuses lead to different approaches.

"My Lord Shen, we must give that Thick Earth King a hopeless gift this time!" Lu Yan'an chuckled, a cold glint flashing in his eyes!
