Chapter 459 - Chapter 459 Chapter 461 The Test of Zijing Immortal
Chapter 459: Chapter 461: The Test of Zijing Immortal Chapter 459: Chapter 461: The Test of Zijing Immortal “Spirit Monster is online already? That was quick,” Qin Muye said, curious. He had learned from the latest intelligence that the other party had already started constructing various buildings and was even expanding their territory, reclaiming the lands they had lost.
“Okay, looks like someone else is in charge now. That’s right, it wouldn’t be so smooth for the original persona to integrate with the Three-eyed Clan.”
Qin Muye was certain that the current Spirit Monster was no longer the original one but had become a native of this world, a local wearing a Lord’s skin.
The principle was something Qin Muye was aware of: first, a brand-new blank persona was created through mental saturation, then reshaped into a Three-eyed Tribe member through the Mind Network. Meanwhile, the original persona was imprisoned and weakened. Once the new persona was sufficiently developed, the original was crammed into it.
After such manipulation, with the new persona as the main body absorbing the original one, the occupation of the host’s nest was easily completed. That Spirit Monster, from body to thought, had become a Three-eyed Clansman instead of the original Lord.
“This technology must have been quite widespread back then, or else the Three-eyed Clan wouldn’t be so united, right?”
Thinking of the always unified Three-eyed Clan–even with a Mind Network, it’s impossible for every member to be solely devoted to the wellbeing of their home and country. That’s implausible. As long as there’s self-awareness, there will be personal desires. Yet the Three-eyed Clan has none, which clearly indicates the guiding hand of the Gendaya Mother Goddess.
It’s essentially a technique similar to the one used on Spirit Monster, except now it’s replacing personas, not just thoughts.
“That must be why the Gendaya Civilization was able to develop so rapidly and maintain such unity and selflessness.”
“Was it like the Gendaya Mother Goddess had accelerated the growth of the Three-eyed people in an alternative way, only to grow too fast for the Mother Goddess to keep up?”
[Spirit Monster: Senior, do you know what caused the recent solar extinction?]
Suddenly, this message appeared in the chat channel.
“They’re testing me,” Qin Muye thought as he looked at the message, considering whether to reply.
The other party’s territory was indeed developing rapidly. How rapid? Well, when tech giants get to work, of course, it’s fast.
[***: Yeah, I know.]
After some thought, pretending to be ignorant would just seem too hypocritical.
“Wait a second, by doing this, I’ve exposed myself, haven’t I?”
Firstly, the Abyss Demon Net, Abyss Mage, Blasphemous Priest, and so on, every one of them was related to the Abyss. The other party had obtained all permissions, which meant they could access the leaderboards and see Qin Muye’s Endless Abyss territory at a glance.
As for the possibility that they believed it to be an accident? That was highly unlikely.
[Spirit Monster: What’s the reason? Could you enlighten me?]
[***: Sure, what do you have?]
Qin Muye felt that if the price was right, selling his information to the other party wasn’t out of the question.
The other party was apparently taken aback by Qin Muye’s brazen chutzpah, not replying immediately.
“Sneer, playing coy with me, huh? If you want to probe, then probe, but don’t expect to get anything for free,” Qin Muye wasn’t a fool. He certainly couldn’t just answer any question without getting something in return.
[Spirit Monster: Senior, what is it that you want?]
[***: That depends on what you have. You name the price, and I’ll see if it’s acceptable. If it is, I’ll talk; if not, keep trying.]
Qin Muye indicated he was indifferent, figuring he might as well ask for the moon and squeeze every last drop out of them while he had the chance.
[Spirit Monster: Senior, you took three Divine Artifacts from me before, and now I’m penniless. Please feel free to ask for anything you desire.]
[***: How would I know what you have? And you’re telling me to just ask for whatever I want, are you crazy?]
The other party was playing mind games with Qin Muye, first mentioning the three Divine Artifacts to indicate their lack of valuable possessions, then saying to ask for anything he desired, which basically meant going from claiming poverty to assuming a moral high ground.
But Qin Muye didn’t indulge them in the slightest. Not his problem if they were poor–if they couldn’t name a proper price, they shouldn’t bother asking.
“Knowing about the three Divine Artifacts, their memory must really have recovered. I’d hypothesized before, but now there’s proof,” Qin Muye narrowed his eyes, considering the situation troublesome.
Spirit Monster was surely ready to go on a world-saving mission since the current Spirit Monster was part of the Three-eyed Clan. As long as it wasn’t the very last moment, they would absolutely not leave.
Alright, given their impoverished state, it was improbable they’d have the ability to run off.
After all, without a Server Transfer Token, I can only live and die with this server.
Server Transfer Tokens are not that easy to obtain. Currently, the production is limited, and if the other party really had one, they would have left this server long ago, instead of lingering here and having such a rough time.
The other side was silent for about three minutes before a screenshot of their inventory was sent to the chat channel–this was a snapshot of Spirit Monster’s inventory.
[Spirit Monster: As long as senior can guide me, everything in my inventory is yours to choose from.]
Qin Muye took a look and fell silent too.
What the hell is all this crap? There’s nothing worth a second glance; it’s just painfully lame.
[***: Farewell. Take your time to investigate. Even the trivial amount of information I have is out of your league.]
After seeing what the other had, there was also a sense of helplessness; there’s just no juice left to squeeze, they’re flat broke.
As for resources? To put it crudely, the resources of their territory are less than what the Endless Abyss could produce in ten minutes.
What’s really needed is high-end stuff like Divine Artifacts, or items like Random Dungeon Scrolls or Server Transfer Tokens–those would actually be of some use to Qin Muye.
Qin Muye had no intentions of getting something like a Mythical Level Profession– if the other party actually had one, they’d use it themselves, not likely offer it to Qin Muye.
[Spirit Monster: Senior, please make an exception. We’re both from the same world. Consider it an act of support, and I’ll be sure to repay you handsomely in the future.]
After reading this, Qin Muye decided to stop paying attention to the other party. In the future? If there even is a future, as Qin Muye plans to devour the entire world, the other party would be lucky to escape that fate, let alone have a future. If they don’t manage to escape, they’ll just end up as Skeleton Soldiers toiling away in factories.
So, since they can’t be squeezed for more, they’re clearly worthless.
Perhaps the other party still has something valuable hidden away, but if they’re not bringing it out, there’s nothing to be done.
Thus, no matter how much the other party sweet-talks in the chat channel, Qin Muye simply ignores them.
“It seems, the other party hasn’t realized that I’ve actually planted a spy next to them? Otherwise, they wouldn’t resort to such tactics.”
Spirit Monster might think Qin Muye is clueless about them, but in reality, Qin Muye knows far more.
Even without getting close, the high-tech gadgets installed on the Spirit Monster spy let him monitor remotely and even allow for all-around surveillance.
Even the conversation about how the Earl of White Frost should respond had been transmitted back.
After about half an hour of performing a solo act on the chat channel, seeing that Qin Muye was completely unresponsive, Spirit Monster finally had to give up.
“Looks like a real pauper. I thought I might be able to trick out some rare item,” Qin Muye felt somewhat disappointed.
He had thought the other party was really persistent, but after all that trouble, they ended up with nothing to show.
“Considering everything, the other party must know quite a bit, but I wonder how they plan to respond?”
“From the current situation, they seem to respect my strength and are quite determined to eliminate me.”
“I hope they manage to find my whereabouts soon.”
From the intelligence in hand, they seem to have confirmed that Qin Muye is the main culprit, but the problem is, to take down Qin Muye, their first step is to find the Endless Abyss.
That is simply an impossible task.
Because even if they develop rapidly, they can’t possibly develop the technology to reach the Star Realm in such a short time.
Even if they did, the vastness of the Star Realm would prevent them from imagining that Qin Muye’s Endless Abyss is located beneath the Main Material Plane–after all, how many of those who look up at the sky ever bother to look down at the ground?
Even if they somehow do find Qin Muye, what then, kill him on the spot? They’re more likely to be turned into mush by the Spirit Monster first.
With their meager strength, they’re simply not a match. If it weren’t for Qin Muye being busy and trying to see if he could lure out the Gendaya Mother Goddess for maximum benefit, they would have been gone long ago, unable to make such a fuss.
“The Gendaya Mother Goddess has already intervened once; the next move is likely to be big. I hope the next action is even bigger–I want a Heroic Level Golden Treasure Chest!” Qin Muye genuinely feels that the Gendaya Civilization and the Three-eyed Clan are such good people, always providing knowledge, equipment, and now even Points and Treasure Boxes.
