Chapter 356 Bandit Couple, Murderous Swallow!
"How's the material collection going?"
Ye Xuan and Bai Qing had been wandering in the River of Immortality for almost two whole days, constantly searching for materials.
Kill any monsters you encounter, and steal any treasures you find.
In just two days, their fame has spread throughout the River of Immortality.
"Run! It's that bandit couple again!"
The moment the Wind Chaser appeared, all the players who had stayed in Yanliu Bay began to flee in panic.
In the entire Undying River region, there is no other ship as luxurious as the Wind Chaser.
Ye Xuan was already used to this.
These past few days, I've been observing his human identity and his level of only 60.
Many players from other races tried to seize his ship, but without exception, they were all killed without exception.
Even without deliberately killing anyone, Ye Xuan's level reached 65.
Even he himself had to marvel at how fast the upgrade speed was, even faster than when he was in his territory.
However, Ye Xuan also discovered a pattern: the rewards for defeating enemies of higher levels became more generous.
Because of the level advantage, the experience points will increase dramatically every time you kill an enemy that is one level higher.
Because of Ye Xuan's abnormal combat power, leveling up became the easiest thing for him.
"Just this one last thing is needed."
A large number of indigenous monsters, the Water Swallows, live in Yanliu Bay.
The habitat of these swiftlets produces a special food called bird's nest strands.
To obtain deep-sea sea urchins, these bird's nest strands are indispensable.
"Watch out, they're coming!"
Ye Xuan lay leisurely on the deck, watching a dark cloud rapidly approaching in the distance.
This is a flock of swallows.
Despite their delicate-sounding name, these birds are known as "killer swallows" because they are true carnivores.
"Do you think this bandit couple can defeat the flock of swallows?"
Many players from other races, though they had fled far away, were still curious about the purpose of the two's visit.
Their flamboyant actions these past two days have already attracted attention from many parties.
"You can't beat them, can you? Don't underestimate these Water Swallows just because they're not strong individually; each one has the ability to self-destruct."
"Look at this huge number, there must be at least a hundred thousand of them. How are we supposed to fight them?"
Many people have heard of what the Wind Chaser looks like, but very few have actually seen Ye Xuan and his companion.
"You guys said there's been news about a treasure in the Dogfish territory lately, did they leak it?"
"Possibly. I've heard that entering the area where the treasure is located requires collecting a lot of complicated materials."
"This perfectly matches the actions of the bandit couple."
"No wonder so many people are watching them, all wanting to know exactly what materials they're collecting."
The alien players thought they were far enough away that Ye Xuan wouldn't hear their conversations.
But they had no idea of the power of life fluctuations.
Everything fluctuates, and within Ye Xuan's detection range, no one can escape his notice.
"The information has been leaked; it looks like someone is trying to muddy the waters."
Upon hearing this, Bai Qing's body tensed instinctively at first, but then she relaxed.
"He must have been one of the people who received the news at the same time."
"Even if they don't spread the news, I will announce it myself later."
As one of the seven major tribes, the Shark Tribe strictly forbids others from entering its territory.
To obtain deep-sea urchins, stirring up the waters and attracting other forces to exert pressure on the horned shark's territory is a necessary step.
"Aren't you going to make a move?"
As the flock of swallows drew closer, Bai Qing asked.
"No need, just leave it to the Blood Demon and the Wind Rider."
Having said that, all the weapon bays around the Wind Chaser were opened.
The recent unrestrained attacks have almost depleted Ye Xuan's energy orb, but that's fine too.
Looking at the energy of over 9000 million, he estimated that killing this group of water swallows would be enough for the Wind Chaser to upgrade.
At that time, the Immortal Dragon King's treasury will be full of low-level source stones, enough to support the Wind Chaser's consumption.
In addition, Ye Xuan gently waved the Blood Demon Banner.
After having this, he felt very relaxed.
No more effort or trouble to clean up the small fish.
The number of blood demons has increased to three after the killings of the past few days.
boom!
With the Wind Chaser firing its mortar first, the two sides began to engage in formal combat.
Water Swallow lived up to its reputation as a killer swallow, showing no fear whatsoever no matter how fierce the attacks from the Wind Chaser and the Blood Demon were.
Unfortunately, their self-destruction was of no use to the vampires.
"Holy crap, are these bandit couple following the path of demonic cultivation and murder?"
"Of course! Look at those three monsters, I can smell the blood on them even from this far away."
"You guys keep watching the show, I'm leaving first. These demonic cultivators kill and dispose of corpses at the drop of a hat, I don't want to be sucked into that little flag by him."
"Let's go, let's go too."
The appearance of the Blood Demon immediately scared away most of the alien players who were watching the show.
Ye Xuan didn't care about this; he wasn't a real serial killer.
Under perfect restraint, the swiftlets' self-destruction can only affect themselves.
Soon, the number of swifts began to decline rapidly.
And the Wind Chaser has finally ushered in its first evolution.
[The Wind Chaser's energy has reached 100 million. Shall we begin evolution and upgrade immediately?]
How long does evolution and upgrading take?
【One minute】
There was no need to hesitate any longer, so Ye Xuan chose to evolve immediately.
However, before that, Ye Xuan had shrouded the Wind Chaser in a lie.
How could I possibly let anyone know about a special ship that can evolve?
In Ye Xuan's view, the Wind Chaser was shrouded in layers of complex and mysterious runes.
"Hey, why aren't his ships attacking anymore?"
"They probably missed."
From the beginning until now, the Wind Chaser's continuous firing has already consumed a lot of resources.
Therefore, the onlookers from other races all believed that Ye Xuan was about to take action personally.
"Let's see what he's capable of. I heard no one has seen him fight in the last few days."
After losing the firepower suppression, the pressure on the swift swarm was greatly reduced.
Those of the Water Swallows with Nen-level abilities began to tear the Blood Demon apart frantically.
The Blood Demon, only around level 80, was no match for the overwhelming force. After being shattered into pieces, it returned to the Blood Demon Banner as a streak of bloody light.
"His summoned creatures are gone too. Let's see how he handles the wrath of the swift flock."
"He's probably a summoner-type player; he'll likely run away once the monsters are gone."
After a short rest, the flock of swallows began to swoop down on Ye Xuan.
Meanwhile, the Wind Chaser had already completed its upgrade.
[The Wind Chaser has entered Level 2 status; its energy source has been changed to Originium.]
[The damage attribute has undergone a transformation, making it capable of harming all beings below the ninth-star level of Ninja ability.]
[Enhanced flight and land mobility, perfectly adaptable to all terrains]
[Increased tracking capability; attacks fired from special turrets now have built-in lock-on tracking.]
[100 billion energy needed for the next upgrade]
"The perfect tool for land, sea, and air."
This was Ye Xuan's only feeling after seeing the upgraded Wind Chaser: he wouldn't need to change tools anymore.
"Try the main gun."
The massive cannons on the deck of the Wind Chaser instantly turned towards the flock of water swallows.
Ye Xuan gave a large amount of the primary primitive resources from the Undying Dragon King's treasure vault to the Wind Chaser AI.
"Fireworks, friends!"
