Chapter 116 Territory Lord "Andona"
The world of Crimson Dragons is also far from peaceful at this moment.
Suk and the others remained near the Poison Dragon Abyss, gazing at the distant scenery.
"Suk, where do you think the first treasure will appear?" Saki asked, unable to contain his curiosity.
According to the giant, the treasures will appear randomly in various parts of the continent, and will appear in five separate events at regular intervals. The first batch of treasures will appear one day later, with 108 items. The number of treasures will decrease with each subsequent appearance, but their value will increase.
Suk shook his head. "It's not time yet, who knows? But if all 108 treasures appear together, many people will definitely be able to snatch them if they are separate. But if they appear in the same place, the battle will be fierce." He could imagine the scene of blood flowing like rivers as everyone fought for the treasures.
This is why Suk and the other adventurers stayed near the Poison Dragon Abyss. Nobody's stupid; since they couldn't predict where the treasure would appear, they figured they might as well secure a good position first. The Poison Dragon Abyss was located in the center of the continent, so no matter where the treasure appeared...
They can get there quickly, which is relatively advantageous.
"There's one more important thing," Eloi said. "We have no powerful backing. Even if we manage to seize the treasure, we'll likely be captured as soon as we leave, which would be the worst possible outcome."
Suk and Zuomu both nodded. Yes, although they had some trump cards up their sleeves, they were far from being able to compete with the various forces of the Jialan Empire.
A mere domain lord could easily kill them. The Hail outside is only a ninth-tier cosmic-level being; he can't offer much help.
"Therefore, there is no way to survive in the Crimson Dragon World if we are independent of other forces. We must first attach ourselves to a powerful force and join one for self-protection in order to ensure our safety and avoid being targeted," Suk said.
However, Suk and the others said they didn't have any connections with other forces.
"That's right." Suddenly, Su Ke's eyes lit up. "Didn't we join the Jialan branch of the Virtual Universe Company? Maybe we can ask them and find a solution."
"Are you talking about Lord Qiwu Hai, the one who recruited us back then?" Eloi's eyes lit up.
"We don't have her contact information." Saki scratched his head.
The mysterious Qi Wu Haiqin only recruited them to join the Jia Lan branch of the Virtual Universe Company before disappearing without a trace.
They were handed over to a domain lord named Antona for management, but that domain lord seemed to have forgotten about them afterward and never paid any attention to them.
They only had Antona's contact information, not Qiwu Haiqin's.
Should we contact them now?
Suk glanced at his companion and said, "There's no other way now, let's try anything. I'll go talk to that Antona."
Suk's consciousness entered the virtual universe and appeared in his own residence in the Azure Tree Community on Jialan Island.
He glanced around, seemed to hear something, smiled slightly, and stepped out onto the balcony. Sure enough, he saw his parents, sister, and brother all together in the yard outside.
"Little Ke?" Su Kai and his wife smiled happily when they saw their son appear.
"Brother!" The eight-year-olds, who looked like teenagers, called out happily. Suk jumped down with a smile, landed in front of his family, hugged his younger sister and brother, and then said to his parents, "You're here too?"
"We're fine." Su Kai couldn't help but ask, "Are you all alright outside?"
The feeling of the family chatting and exchanging pleasantries was heartwarming, but Suk glossed over his adventures in the Red Dragon World with a smile, only mentioning the interesting parts, which his family listened to with great interest.
"By the way, Xiao Ke." Su Kai and Alice exchanged a glance, and Su Kai said with a smile, "There's something I need to tell you—it's good news. Your mother and I broke through our domains while you were away." He was all smiles, clearly in a good mood.
That's a domain, which was something that even the star level was unattainable for Su Kai in the past, let alone the legendary 'domain'.
Su Kai and Alice felt that ever since their son used that mysterious technique on them that day, they were completely different. Their cultivation was as if they were divinely aided, and their speed was much faster than before!
"Really?" Suk was surprised at first, then felt happy for his parents.
His parents' aptitude was just like his own in the past—truly ordinary. They had cultivated for hundreds of years but were only at the planetary level. However, in just a few years, they had entered the realm of cultivation. Suk finally understood the power of his perfected "Second Nirvana" talent and "Talent Sharing".
It's like having Midas touch, a miraculous effect that transforms people completely.
Given such efficacy, it wouldn't be impossible for the parents to comprehend the laws of nature in the future.
After chatting and laughing with his family for a while, Suk returned to his study to continue contacting the domain lord "Antona". To be honest, this was Suk's first time contacting her, and he was not sure what to expect.
"Drip, drip, drip..."
Jiu Suke stood in the study, waiting silently. A screen appeared in front of him, but it was blank.
brush!
Suddenly, a woman with short blonde hair, a rounded chin, pointed ears, emerald eyes, and a crystal-clear teardrop between her eyebrows appeared on the screen. She leaned lazily on the sofa, her curvaceous body casually draped in a purple, home-style nightgown, from which some glimpses of her cleavage could be seen.
"My lord." Although Suk was surprised that the other party appeared in such a casual manner, he did not dare to look at him for too long and respectfully bowed his head and greeted him.
Antona gave Suk a deep look. She clearly remembered that these were the young people that Lady Qiwu Haiqin had personally entrusted to her, so the impression was still there. However, because she didn't know the lady's intentions, she hadn't made any arrangements for Suk and the others. She asked, "Did you need something from me?"
"My lord, it's like this..." Suk quickly and simply explained his purpose.
"So you're in the Crimson Dragon World." Antona was a little surprised. A thought struck her. Originally, because there was no way to enter the Crimson Dragon World, she had no one under her command. As for the Crimson Dragon World, there was no way to enter, and no force in the Jialan Empire could send anyone in. So she hadn't had any ideas before. But now, Suk's arrival gave her an opportunity.
"If you want to find a backer, I can arrange it for you," Antona said with a smile. "Although I am an external deacon of the Martial Arts Department of the Virtual Universe Company's Jialan branch, in charge of you external members, I am also a member of the Doomsday Blade, one of the seven major organizations, and hold an important position there. When the time comes, I will talk to the people there, and you can just join directly."
"So you're a member of Doomsday Blade, sir," Suk said in surprise.
Antona smiled. "Don't be fooled by the seven major civilian organizations in the Jialan Empire. They may seem similar, but compared to the official government, only our Doomsday Blade, the Liyuan Palace, and the Giant Wave Mansion can truly rival it. As for the other four, they're all a bit lacking... You won't lose out by joining in my name for now." She looked at Suk, her red lips slightly pursed. "Of course, you should know what to do after you get out."
Antona immediately added, "I won't let you suffer a loss either. If you can bring out a treasure that satisfies me and trade with me, I will give you a suitable reward."
"I trust you, sir." Suk nodded. In reality, he didn't have much of a choice. Compared to other unfamiliar forces, at least he was personally recruited by the mysterious Lady Seven Dances Sea Harp.
Since the mysterious Lady Qiwu Haiqin can command a domain lord at will, her status must be quite high.
If I had to choose, I'd choose someone I know. Even if An Dongna really has some ulterior motives, she might have some reservations for Qi Wu Haiqin's sake.
