Chapter 401 The Secret of Hot Spring Mountain, The Terrified Third Master!
The person in charge, whose mustache trembled, explained nervously.
"I don't know either, but rest assured, sir, I absolutely have not betrayed the organization."
Ye Xuan could sense that he wasn't lying.
"Will the gathering of heroes only kill our people? What about the people from other factions?"
The person in charge wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Kill them all, and the entire mountain city's heroes will become the sole power."
"Their ranks now number at least tens of thousands."
"And their people are everywhere in official institutions too."
Ye Xuan guessed that the Heroes' Gathering must have mastered a similar screening method.
That's why we can catch them every time.
"Modify your hot pot base recipe according to this one."
"Only when business is good can we gather more information."
As a top-tier spiritual chef, Ye Xuan almost instantly improved the recipe to be the most delicious.
Unexpectedly, the person in charge, who had been trembling just moments before, opened his mouth to refute.
"Sir, this is an old recipe passed down from my ancestors."
"There are very few businesses in the entire mountain town that are as successful as mine."
"If it weren't for family rules requiring us to only open a shop in this peripheral location, we wouldn't have so few people."
He's no good at fighting, but you could say his hot pot is bad.
Even if this person is a leader, he still has to offer some rebuttal.
"You'll understand once you try it."
After Ye Xuan finished speaking, he headed towards the city center of the mountain city, which would take two or three hours by car.
It is indeed quite remote.
"Um?"
As Ye Xuan flew stealthily towards the city, he clearly felt a fluctuation sweep over his entire body after crossing the edge of the area.
This fluctuation was extremely weak; it would have been if Ye Xuan's soul attribute hadn't already reached 150,000 points.
It would probably be difficult to detect.
"Looks like we've found the reason."
If this fluctuation is some kind of screening method controlled by the Alliance of Heroes, then everything makes sense.
The reason the person in charge was unharmed was simply because his hot pot restaurant was located too far away.
After arriving in the city, Ye Xuan only stayed by the river for a short while before he noticed several players surrounding him.
"His strength is roughly equivalent to a level 20+ player, not bad."
The game has not yet merged with reality, and there are very few people like Ye Xuan whose strength is 100% synchronized with reality.
Most players still rely on the changes in the energy concentration of Earth to awaken their talents and cultivate their skills on their own.
However, such efficiency is extremely low, and it often takes ten days to advance even one level.
The fact that each of these lowly henchmen in the Heroes' Gathering possesses strength exceeding level 20 is quite remarkable.
After getting close to Ye Xuan, the three of them simultaneously pulled out daggers from their backs and stabbed them directly into Ye Xuan's neck.
"They dare to lay their hands on the mountain city? They're courting death!"
Without asking any questions, they attacked without hesitation, completely disregarding the laws of the Dragon Kingdom.
Even in broad daylight, there were many ordinary players taking a stroll along the riverbank.
Upon seeing this, they all screamed and fled in panic.
Ye Xuan's pupils emitted a faint blue light as he directly used the Dreamlike Illusion technique to control these people.
The arrogance of the heroes' gathering was somewhat beyond Ye Xuan's expectations.
They managed to take control of this city so early; I wonder what the Chinese government was doing.
"Take me to your headquarters."
Ye Xuan had no interest in a slow investigation; going straight there and pushing forward was the most efficient way.
The headquarters of the Heroes' Guild is located in the heart of a mountain town, nestled in a mountain full of hot springs.
"Back so quickly, looks like the target this time was weak."
The players from the Heroes' Gathering immediately realized something was wrong; Ye Xuan was clearly an outsider.
"Who are you?!"
Large numbers of players kept rushing out of the headquarters, each carrying a weapon.
These people were extremely bloodthirsty, and without asking any questions, they went straight for Ye Xuan.
Snapped!
Ye Xuan flicked his fingers, and the steam from the hot spring turned into countless fine needles.
One needle per person, precise and deadly.
"Quickly, go and summon the three masters!"
The players of the Heroes' Guild, who were used to running rampant, had never seen such a ruthless person before.
Unfortunately, they weren't fast enough.
Before he could run more than a few steps, he was pierced by the water needle.
Even before entering, Ye Xuan had already scanned the entire hot spring mountain.
The problem lies in the center of Hot Spring Mountain, where even mental scanning cannot detect anything.
They fought their way through.
Ye Xuan did not let any of the players he encountered in the Heroes' Gathering go.
"The murderous aura is so strong, do these guys kill people every day?"
You should know that China is the country with the best public security.
The law still applies to most people, but the murderous aura emanating from these guys is clearly new.
Soon, Ye Xuan arrived at the central area of Hot Spring Mountain.
"There's a barrier?"
This barrier wasn't created using a scroll or similar tool.
Ye Xuan, who possessed the Undying Dragon Palace, immediately recognized that this was a protective barrier generated by a safe building.
hum!
Ye Xuan drew the Myriad Calamities Evil Blade and slashed at the protective barrier.
"Fortunately, it wasn't a barrier that was instantly repaired."
The protective barrier of the Undying Dragon Palace is constantly absorbing energy to replenish itself.
The one in front of us is clearly not that high-end.
As long as the damage is sufficient, the barrier's health can be gradually whittled down.
This is a type of barrier that requires manual repair.
"Which bastard dares to attack my barrier?"
Before Ye Xuan could unleash his second strike, an exasperated voice came from inside.
Looking at the newcomer's appearance, Ye Xuan almost burst out laughing.
His facial features already resembled those of a catfish, yet he also sported two small mustaches.
It's no different from a catfish becoming a spirit.
"Level 58, with fresh blood on his body."
Ye Xuan looked at him; it was a deep elevator leading into the mountain.
An endless killing intent was spreading from within.
The moment the third leader saw Ye Xuan, his arrogant demeanor vanished instantly.
Can't beat it!
He swung the two axes in his hands and sprinted frantically toward the elevator.
"We must get our eldest and second eldest brothers to use all the Originium to repair the protective barrier!"
He had never felt this way with anyone before.
If this man were to come in, the three brothers would not survive.
Just as he was relieved that he hadn't rashly left the barrier, his running body suddenly stopped.
"Why can't I move?!"
"You idiot, run now!"
The flying axe he threw was easily blocked by Ye Xuan's golden light protecting him.
At the same time, Ye Xuan continued to attack the protective barrier while petrifying the third leader.
Click!
Even with Ye Xuan's full-force attack, it took him a full 10 minutes to break through the protective barrier.
"Come on, show me the secrets of this hot spring mountain."
Ye Xuan grabbed the third leader by the back of the head and slowly walked towards the elevator.
"Who exactly are you?"
"What grudges do you have against my group of heroes?"
The third leader was very puzzled. Although the three brothers were arrogant, they were never conceited.
When they were weak, they always developed stealthily, gradually growing stronger through the secret means they possessed, until they finally controlled the entire mountain city.
Even so, whenever a powerful being or someone of noble status arrives, they will sense it in advance and disguise it as if nothing is amiss.
He also repeatedly restrained his subordinates.
It's impossible to offend such a terrifying being, and the three leaders are completely unaware of it.
Ye Xuan knew what he was talking about.
That fluctuation had a certain information detection function, but Ye Xuan deceived it with a lie.
"You've killed too many of my men."
"no way."
"I've come to collect you."
