Chapter 550 - 281: Mermaid
"Look, this is the land I conquered, but I’m so tired of fighting. No matter how much I conquer, it seems endless."
Demacia was livestreaming, speaking with some despair.
This version had lasted for a long time, and during this time, he had reached Level 39. He had even completed the new instance modes like Night, Black Death, and Eternal Life.
But... he still felt like something was missing....
It seemed like this game now was truly just a game, with various facilities focusing on defeating monsters. Those NPCs were excessively boosting the players’ abilities. Thirty million players could join the battle for the Federation anytime by paying money...
Yes, paying money. They had to pay a Teleportation Fee to help the Federation conquer lands!!!
Many people complained about this, and players even controlled the discourse to lower the fee to an acceptable level for players, which was a modest price of ten Copper Coins per teleportation.
The officials’ explanation for the cost was quite reasonable in the eyes of the players, stating that teleportation consumed a lot of Magic Power, and they charged to prevent some Marvels from teleporting around recklessly for fun.
Players were well aware of their nature and fully understood the rationale behind Dawn’s announcement.
"Xiaomo? Are you sure?" Demacia looked at the barrage, shivered, and his voice trembled slightly.
[I want to see Xiaomo!] ×n
These five words gradually filled the screen. Demacia felt a bit despairing as the Magic Power in his body automatically activated, and a Flying Technique was quickly cast.
His body slowly floated upwards, looking around. After confirming there was no powerful presence here, he reached out his hand.
Buzz~
Summoning Power flowed through his hand, and suddenly, a Hexagram Array appeared.
Barrage: [Here it comes, start recording!] ×n
When the brilliance of the Hexagram Array reached its peak, besides some barrage lines filled with question marks, the densely packed barrage suddenly disappeared.
Demacia took a deep breath, and at the moment he landed, he turned and ran, shouting loudly, "Don’t bite, or you’ll completely lose your fruit, completely lose it! Ugh...ugh...let me out...ugh..."
Roar~
At the moment he shouted, darkness enveloped Demacia’s vision, turning everything completely black.
A large, wet tongue licked wildly, causing Demacia to let out a series of strange cries.
In the livestream footage, in a wide-angle video, a ten-meter-tall Cannibal Flower, covered in purple patterns and spikes, had some protrusions rapidly appearing and disappearing in its mouth, as if something was struggling inside.
After about ten seconds, the Cannibal Flower lowered its head and spat onto the ground.
A dripping wet Demacia splattered out.
He looked at the Cannibal Flower, almost in tears: "I told you not to, it’s gone, you have nothing left!"
At this moment, the sparse barrage filled up furiously with the number 6.
Xiaomo seemed a bit embarrassed, letting out a low growl: Roar~
"It’s useless, I won’t forgive you, you... huh? No? Go back!"
Demacia was reaching out and suddenly shouted loudly. The Cannibal Flower, which was about to bite a player, instantly dispersed.
"Its personality has changed so much."
The Guard Brigade canceled the skill release with some helplessness.
He had almost been swallowed by the Cannibal Flower when he got close a moment ago.
That Cannibal Flower caused no damage to Demacia, but it would swallow other players in one bite.
When Demacia summoned it for the first time, he had to compensate three players with three Gold Coins.
The Level 43 Cannibal Flower was still too strong for players, and players without any Specialty would be instantly killed.
"It reminds me of the Violent Carp Dragon. This thing is crazy; it even wants to take on Golden Bosses head-on. If I couldn’t forcibly unsummon it, Xiaomo would have died twice by now." Demacia was quite exasperated.
What kind of permanent Summoned Creatures did he have?
"If it’s uncontrollable... it seems rather problematic." The Guard Brigade was a bit helpless: "Is there any way?"
"Yes, forced commands, but there is a Cooling Time while summoning doesn’t have one. So now I can forcibly recall it and will do so. If I can’t, I’ll command it." Demacia sighed, feeling a headache.
Pingtou.
Once it feared everyone it saw, now it wants to kill everyone, bite everyone it sees.
"If there’s a chance, Divine Showcase or Baiyi could easily solve your problem."
"It’s hard. It’s really hard to meet Baiyi now unless we discover some storylines." Demacia looked at the Mutated Zone on the hillside, where players were gradually slaughtering everything, and asked, "Never mind that for now; did you need something?"
The Guard Brigade glanced up.
Demacia instantly understood, decisively turning off the livestream amidst a barrage of "No!!!".
"Is there a quest?"
"Follow me."
The Guard Brigade smiled mysteriously and led Demacia to the Teleportation Array.
Here, after players conquered the Catastrophe Zone, a small outpost was quickly established around the Teleportation Array.
The Federation would integrate some nearby wild folks or small villages, gradually spreading order across this continent.
Now, the Federation had over three thousand smaller settlements around.
Most of them were Mutated Zones, and there weren’t that many Ancient Gods.
But the invasive and multilayered nature of the Abyss meant Abyss Lords were rampant, and Tier Seven Legendary could start an invasion against Xia.
And the layers of the Bottomless Abyss were still increasing.
Every plane consumed by the Abyss would form a unique layer, with its inhabitants rapidly falling into the Abyss or becoming fodder for the Abyss Sea, transforming into the soil for the growth of Abyssal Worms.
The two reached the Teleportation Array, paid the fee, and the immense Power of Space-Time slowly descended, swiftly carrying them through the vast map.
