Soong Xiaosheng's eyes narrowed. He seemed to have heard of such a gang before, but he wasn't particularly concerned about the gang, so he wasn't clear about the details.
"Exactly." The male deacon said: "The Azure Dragon Rock Gang is a small and prestigious faction among the Radiant Main City gang, and there are many relationships and interactions with the royal families."
"Now that you mention it, I remember that a few years ago, there seemed to be something in my house that had been given to me by the Azure Dragon Rock."
Soong Xiaosheng thought about it carefully and remembered that it was because he had some interactions with the Azure Dragon Rock that he remembered this name. Now that he was mentioned like this, he naturally remembered it.
Of course, if Soong Xiaosheng was able to carefully inquire further, he would know that the Azure Dragon Rock Gang resided on a cliff at the precipice west of the Brilliant Main City, and among them, they only recruited earth or metal attribute martial practitioners. And the Azure Dragon Rock Gang Leader, who also had a naturally attributed Source Core Soul, the Giant Spirit Rock Soul!
His strength was his Star Swallowing Stage, and countless experts he had encountered were not his match, the vast majority of them were because of the strength of his Giant Spirit Rock Soul!
But because the position of the Azure Dragon Rock was not good, or perhaps because the potential of the Azure Dragon Rock Sect Master himself was exhausted, his cultivation did not advance even a single bit in the ten odd years since he had reached the Star Swallowing Stage.
The furious Sect Master was finally unable to endure the silence that lasted for more than ten years. Finally, after a period of trying to break through, his cultivation went berserk, his tendons and vessels were shattered, his Stellar Genuine Qi organs exploded, and his Star Nucleus shattered. As a result, his life was in danger.
Before he died, the Sect Master knew that his death was near, and he also knew that he wouldn't be able to win against Xing Ming. His Star Swallowing Stage was his peak, and it was impossible for him to surpass it.
Therefore, he finally accepted his fate and, before he died, entrusted his body to the Azure Dragon Rock gang to be transported back to the place where he was raised at. It was a small city located in the northwestern part of the Beacon Province in the Hundred Regions of the Barbarian Imperial Region.
Furthermore, if one wanted to reach Stone Dragon City through the Radiant Main City, they would have to go through the Wilderness, and the time spent in the Wilderness was estimated to be about half a month.
All of this was something Soong Xiaosheng didn't know. Of course, it was also the fact that the male deacon told him.
"So you're saying that our team has decided to transport this coffin back to the Rock Dragon City and let the Azure Dragon Rock Sect Master return back home?" Soong Xiaosheng asked.
"Naturally."
At this time, Lin Nuan'er became a little curious, "But why would there be such a big battle? No matter how weak the Azure Dragon Rock Gang is, it's still possible to quietly escort them. Seriously, to even stir up the Universe Escort Office like this, it's truly a waste of money. "
Lin Nuan'er was naturally displeased in her heart. Changing the mission was also good. Even if it was a little difficult, it didn't mean that she had to carry coffins, right? After all, it always felt a little unlucky.
"Miss Nuan'er's words are wrong." The male deacon said patiently: "If we didn't have the help of our Universe Escort Office, then the corpse of the Azure Dragon Rock Master would really be unable to be transported out."
"Why is that?" Lin Nuan'er tilted her head, gently leaning on Soong Xiaosheng's shoulder and asked.
The male deacon continued: "Before, you might not have listened carefully, but I had already explained it before, but the Azure Dragon Rock Gang Leader's corpse was carrying a Remnant Soul of Giant Spirit, and the Remnant Soul of Giant Spirit, was a type of energy formed by the fusion of the Source Core Soul and its Clan Master's body before it completely disappeared. It is possible that the energy would be digested, and once absorbed, it will be of great benefit to the warriors, and it might even form the same kind of rock dragon bones as the Azure Dragon Rock Gang Leader."
"Although people that can absorb the Giant Spirit Rock Soul can't, they can absorb the energy that has been stored inside the Giant Spirit Rock Soul for many years, and from then on, strengthen their own bodies."
In truth, many people did not think of this point, because in general, even if there were people who had Source Core Soul s, if they died, the Source Core Soul would disappear along with them. Very few of these people would fuse their will with the Source Core Soul, forming an energy body that did not dissipate.
However, that Remnant Soul of Giant Spirit was such a special existence.
Because of its value, although it was supposed to be a coffin, it was actually meant to be a treasure!
With such a great treasure, it meant that the Royal Vicious Beast, and even the famous assassination organisations in the Beacon Continent, were highly likely to try to snatch the coffin away, so they naturally needed to set up more defenses.
Soong Xiaosheng's reaction was fast, and he asked with some suspicion: "But if this is the case, why is it that the people from the Azure Dragon Rock did not absorb the remnant soul, and instead brought it out?"
"They might not be able to absorb it, or for some reason, they might not be able to." The male deacon shook his head: "I don't know about the details, but in short, we definitely need to protect the coffin and corpse. As long as we can safely deliver it to Stone Dragon City, this mission will be considered a success."
"Alright, we'll take this dart."
Soong Xiaosheng didn't want to ask anymore, and seeing that the male deacon already said everything he knew, he naturally didn't need to ask anymore and directly gave the answer.
And these words, were immediately heard by the thousands of queuing Armed Escort behind him.
They were mostly 2-star or 3-star Armed Escort. Originally, they did not want to take on this 3-star mission, but with Soong Xiaosheng's protection, they felt more confident.
With Soong Xiaosheng and Lin Nuan'er's help in this mission, they might not get many merit points. However, if they could get some merit points just like that, they would be more than willing to join in.
"Then now, according to the combat strength assessment, we originally needed ten three star Armed Escort s for the three star mission. Because of the addition of four star Great Armed Escort Soong Xiaosheng, considering various factors, we need three two star Armed Escort s to participate. We would like to invite the three people who think that they have the strength to compete for the title among the Armed Escort s." The male deacon quickly said.
"Shua!"
Almost immediately after he said that, several figures leaped forward and stood still.
On the other hand, these two star Armed Escort s were the ones who were able to accept this mission.
Originally, there were more than ten people who had stood out at once, but after seeing the strongest few, very quickly, people began to retreat, and stood back up once again. Thus, very quickly, there were only seven or eight people left on the stage.
Not many breaths of time had passed before another group of people came down. It looked like only four experts remained standing.
Two of them, were publicly acknowledged to be the strongest two star Armed Escort s this time, and the strength of the other two were only around the same.
Because of this, the two of them began their battle on the spot!
From within the defensive patterns, the two Power of Star s inside the light barrier erupted with a loud bang. Under the blade light and sword shadows, explosions rang out one after another, and the Stellar Genuine Qi s were like a long dragon emerging from the seas!
Within three minutes, the two of them had fought a thousand times over. One of the two star Armed Escort who was slightly skinnier had found an opening and punched his opponent on the ribs, causing a loud crack and a blood-curdling scream to ring out as the battle came to an end.
In other words, this tall and skinny two star Armed Escort had won this opportunity.
"Alright, you three, follow us on a mission. During the mission, you have to listen to the commands, otherwise you will deviate from the will of the team. I will punish you at any time, do you understand?"
Soong Xiaosheng had his hands behind his back. Although he was not even twenty years old and the average age of the three two star Armed Escort s in front of him was also around Mo Yue thirty years old, it was as if he was being lectured by an elder.
When Soong Xiaosheng went to the Wilderness, it would be impossible for him to always be with these three people. Most of the time, he would be with Lin Nuan'er, flirting, flirting, and so on.
"I will obey your orders."
The three of them clasped their fists, obviously being very obedient.
"Alright, come with me to the Mission Center now to retrieve your Mission Card, then …"
"Wait a moment."
Suddenly, just as Soong Xiaosheng was giving his orders, a young man's voice interrupted him.
Instantly, everyone looked towards the source of the voice, only to discover that there was a young man walking over from the end of the line. He looked handsome, with jet-black eyes, and the corner of his mouth had a hint of a faint smile.
And after sensing his cultivation, everyone confirmed this point because his strength stopped at the peak of the first level of Star Swallowing Stage.
A one star Armed Escort was indeed a new disciple.
He did not like the feeling of being interrupted. Even though he was only around the same age as the latter, in reality, whether it was in terms of strength or mental age, he had to completely crush this person. When a junior interjected like this, how could that elder feel happy?
"Ugh …" Honored Deacon, I would like to ask, if I were to be able to defeat a two star Armed Escort on the list, would I be able to replace a two star Armed Escort to complete this mission? " The youth said.
"Oh? "Young man, you can burn yourself when you play with fire."
The male deacon couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It was true that this youth was speaking the truth, but the amount of people who could say such words was truly too little. They had never even appeared before.
Indeed, those who came to the Universe Escort Office Branch were the elites amongst elites, they did indeed have the ability to easily defeat those above their ranks, but that was only between geniuses, but between Armed Escort and mortals, it was a battle between geniuses, in the eyes of ordinary people, the huge advantage they had that day would be reduced by a lot.
Moreover, the three two star Armed Escort s who were standing here right now were publicly recognized as the three strongest two star Armed Escort s.
The youth nodded and smiled, "Thank you for your reminder, deacon. So, I can still challenge you, right?"
Hearing this, everyone burst into an uproar. Everyone looked at the youth as if they were looking at a fool. Even the male deacon who had kindly reminded them was speechless.
Even if he agreed to the young man's request, if the young man held back, it was very possible that the young man would throw away his life. He was curious, how did this young man with no brains manage to enter the Universe Escort Office Branch? When did you come in? Why was he so ignorant?
A series of questions appeared in the male deacon's mind. He shook his head and helplessly asked, "Boy, what's your name? When did you enter my universe?"
"Right in... You should have joined Universe Escort Office half a month ago. "
The youth replied truthfully as he cupped his fists and said, "My name is Ming Yu. Tomorrow, for the sake of wings, please give me your guidance."
That's right, the youth that came was Ming Yu!
Initially, Ming Yu's experience on his first mission was already lacking, so he could make use of this mission's opportunity to get a good feel of it. Although the current Ming Yu was only a 1 star Armed Escort, he did not have much interest towards those 1 star and 2 star missions.
Perhaps, at this young age, only Ming Yu would have such a mindset.
His mentality had long since surpassed his peers through countless battles and tempering, so he treated them calmly in many situations. Of course, at the Beacon City, Barbarian Imperial Region … There were too many unknowns in this world that he had yet to understand.
Thus, he had always believed himself to be very small and childish.
"Ming Yu?"
The male deacon's eyebrows rose. He finally remembered who this person was.
Even the thousand in line had finally recalled that this Ming Yu was the one who was sent in as guarantee for the top ten thousand Armed Escort half a month ago!
It was said that he defeated Leng Feng and the other challengers a week ago. Before this, it had once been a hot topic of discussion, but as time went by, it was gradually forgotten. But now, because of his appearance, it was once again recalled by everyone!
"Kid, let me give you a word of advice. It's still too late to retreat now. Don't wait until I hit you until you piss and shit, then go back and find your parents to wash your pants."
"Hahahaha!"
The two star Armed Escort who had previously won stood up and spoke coldly, and the moment his words left his mouth, the entire audience burst into laughter.
It was true that Ming Yu had the ability to defeat those of the same cultivation level. However, if he wanted to fight those of higher cultivation level in Universe Escort Office, with trash like Ming Yu, it would simply be a pipe dream.
"In other words, it was you who accepted my challenge?" Ming Yu directly walked towards the man.
This part of the journey was only a hundred meters. As he passed the thousand man long line, countless eyes swept past him, but Ming Yu didn't even glance at him. From start to finish, all of his eyes were fixed on that man without blinking!
"Tell them to start, and we'll fight."
Until he stood in front of tall-and-thin man, Ming Yu did not utter a single word.
"Hur hur."
tall-and-thin man sneered: "I'll give you three seconds to prepare. Three, two..." "One!"
"Swish!"
Suddenly, the air trembled. tall-and-thin man did not make a move. Instead, it was Ming Yu who made the first move. The wind whistled where he stood and his figure instantly disappeared!
