Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
Charlie's team, led by Kersha, searched for the 'key' while hunting for Wandering Souls to obtain Rule Fragments. Although Sala, who was at the early stage of the Kingdom, was killed in a fierce battle, their teamwork became more and more proficient, and they successfully obtained many Rule Fragments.
Kersha got eight, Pato got three, Queiro got one, and Malton got one. Angelle and Thersaffire were left empty-handed. It was obvious that Kersha took the majority of the share, but the others did not dare to voice their anger.
On one hand, Kersha was too strong, and they were no match for her even if they joined forces. On the other hand, Wandering Souls were very difficult to deal with, and Kersha's innate talent had a considerable restraining effect on Wandering Souls. If she left the team and acted alone, even Pato of the Kingdom would find it rather difficult to hunt a Nation-level Wandering Soul. Moreover, not every Nation-level Wandering Soul could condense a Rule Fragment. If something went wrong, Sala would be a good example.
As for Angelle and Thersaffire, they did not dare to object at all. However, Kersha promised that as long as the two of them could find the whereabouts of a valuable group of Wandering Souls or the 'key', they would be allocated the next Rule Fragment.
In fact, Angelle and Thersaffire were also aware that an ordinary man's wealth was his own ruin. With their strength, even if they obtained the Rule Fragment, they would not be able to keep it. They could only further cling onto Kersha.
If not for the fact that they still had some value, if this was not the Floating Land but the outside world, their lives would have long been snuffed out by these supra powerhouses.
However, absorbing or comprehending a Rule Fragment required a lot of time, so even Kersha did not dare to absorb it immediately. After all, these 'teammates' were all people with ulterior motives. Moreover, the most important thing was to complete the mission as soon as possible and leave this damned place as soon as possible. Even without Charlie's reward, just these Rule Fragments would be a great harvest.
"Lady Kersha! I discovered a group of Wandering Souls! " Angelle, who had been scouting the way, panted as she came before Kersha. "In terms of numbers … there are about five to six hundred of them, but there should be supra Wandering Souls among them. I sensed their pressure and did not dare to get too close. If not for Lady's scales concealing my aura, I might have already been discovered."
"Very good!" Ke Resha stood up. Five or six hundred was a sum that could be easily taken down by a small team. "I'm a man of my word. If we obtain a Law Fragment this time, you'll have a spot."
"Sir, I only wish to leave this place safely." Anlil smiled bitterly and said, "I hope that my Lord can protect me. This quota will be my tribute to my Lord."
Seeing that Anlil was so tactful, Ke Resha revealed a satisfied expression. "Alright, I will provide you with protection to the best of my abilities."
Although the credibility of these words was not very high, Anlil knew that she was just an ant in the eyes of the other party. She did not dare to doubt him and quickly thanked him.
Ke Reza ordered, "Let's go, everyone. Let's go hunt the wandering souls!"
At the same time, in another direction, Chen Rui and Leslie were flying unhurriedly.
"Leslie, the scouting map you provided will make it easier for us to find the main gathering places of the Wandering Souls. Also, your concealment talent and water clone are the best way to lure the Wandering Souls. With you dispersing those Wandering Souls, I can easily defeat them one by one. In just seven days, we have already obtained 21 Law Fragments! "Chen Rui showed a look of approval.
Leslie had a humble expression. "Thank you for your praise, Master. The marks on the map are actually just the locations of the Wandering Souls that I detected a few days ago. It's just that I'm not strong enough and don't dare to provoke them. Master is the true Almighty powerhouse, to be able to kill Demigod Wandering Souls. "
In the past few days, Chen Rui and Leslie had joined forces to hunt a large number of Wandering Souls. Especially yesterday, they had actually found a group of Demigod Wandering Souls. Chen Rui had used "Crimson Polar Star Transformation" to kill that Demigod Wandering Soul in one fell swoop and obtained the even more precious Demigod Crystal Ball of Law.
Unlike Nation Fragments, Demigod Crystal Balls were complete Crystal Balls. The Laws contained within were more powerful and complete, and their value far exceeded that of Nation Fragments. The next step from Demigod was False God. At that time, it could no longer be called Law Fragments, but the Power of Truth evolved from the Law. It was closer to "Divinity" and was called Pseudo-Divinity. However, until now, Chen Rui had not seen a Pseudo-God Wandering Soul. He did not know if it was restricted by some special rules.
"What kind of existence is this mysterious place? There are so many powerful Wandering Souls, almost endless! Even if it's just Demon Overlord Wandering Souls, the number is already beyond imagination, not to mention there are so many Super Wandering Souls. If they are placed outside, they can simply destroy the entire world. I don't know if it's formed by the strange power here or the soul mutation of the real person. "This was Chen Rui's biggest doubt since he entered the UFO Land.
"Judging from the Law Fragments … this kind of soul body is likely to be formed after a real powerhouse was annihilated. Moreover, these powerhouses were quite powerful when they were alive. Otherwise, they would not form a soul body after death. Therefore, the weakest Wandering Souls here are Demon Overlord Wandering Souls."
Chen Rui took a deep breath, "So, the actual number of deaths in a certain period is far more than the number of these Wandering Souls? What's going on? "
Leslie shook her head. Chen Rui's heart suddenly moved, "Have you heard of 'Ragnarok of the Gods'?"
"Ragnarok of the Gods?" Leslie was taken aback, "I have seen incomplete records in some ancient books. Legend has it that it was a huge disaster that affected all the worlds. Even the gods fell into a long sleep. However, no one can be sure whether it is a legend or a fact. The gods have indeed not shown miracles for many years. Perhaps this is the origin of these legends. "
Chen Rui frowned. What Leslie said was similar to what he learned from Catherine. Although the gods had not shown miracles for a long time, the concept of time of the legendary gods was completely different from the ordinary world. The gods just yawned, and the world might have passed for thousands of years. Take the galaxy in the Super System as an example. The birth and evolution of a real galaxy took hundreds of millions of years or even longer. However, according to the time of "Chen Rui", only a few years had passed.
Therefore, no one could be sure whether the legendary gods were napping or in eternal slumber.
"That's right, Master, I've seen the term 'Law Fragment' in an incomplete, ancient record." Leslie seemed to think of something, "That notebook also has some fragmented descriptions, such as life essence, law fragments, the secrets of creation and destruction."
Life essence … spirit crystal? The secrets of creation and destruction … silver box? Chen Rui seemed to have touched something crucial and asked, "Who wrote that notebook?"
"That notebook is incomplete. It mentions a 'Ben Hong'. It seems to be a name, but I don't know if it is the author."
Ben Hong? Chen Rui had never heard of this name. Although he now had the power to compete with Demi-God, his knowledge in this world might not be comparable to that of a Demon Overlord. If there was a chance, he might be able to find the answer from veterans like the Earth Elemental King or Augustus.
"It's not long before your gathering time." The most important thing right now was Tiffany and the silver box. Chen Rui didn't waste any more energy thinking about these things, "I will give you 7 fragments to complete the mission. Let's go to the gathering place together. I will use [Stealth] to follow you from afar. When we find Tiffany, we will act according to the situation."
"Yes, master."
Chen Rui and Leslie were calm along the way, but at this time, Koretha encountered a great danger.
Under Angelina's guidance, Charlie's team found the group of five to six hundred Wandering Souls. However, the battle had just begun when the number of Wandering Souls suddenly increased by ten times, and it was still increasing. They were surrounded in layers upon layers of encirclement. What was more terrifying was that the super powerhouses like Anlil and Pato had already felt the breath of Demi-God wandering souls, and there was more than one!
Everyone in Charlie's team was shocked. They quickly gathered together and formed a defensive formation.
Koretha felt that the wandering souls seemed to be deliberately attracted by something, and the focus was actually Anlil who was "exploring". She shouted angrily, "This is a trap! Anlil! "
Anlil's smile looked extremely strange, "Koretha, you self-righteous guy, you finally have this day? You actually only realized it's a trap now? "
"You're not Anlil! Who are you! No, the mark I secretly cast on Anlil hasn't changed. This is … "Koretha suddenly reacted," [Puppet Technique]! Beelzebub Royal Family! "
"Do you remember the battle at the Dead Sea back then? I didn't expect to meet you here, and as an enemy! The woman you sent to explore has already been captured by me and made into a puppet. I even asked my teammates to use their talent to shield the breath that the puppet might leak. It's just nice to lead you into the trap step by step. Enjoy your last moments of life. This time, you can finally take revenge! "
"Vesilna!" Koretha gritted her teeth and said the name of an enemy.
"Haha …" Anlil's laughter stopped abruptly. Her entire person had already turned into ashes under Koretha's anger.
Vesilna was not being an alarmist. There were more and more wandering souls, and the initial estimate was more than 10,000. There were actually six Demi-God wandering souls.
Everyone's expression changed drastically. It was not a choice to attack or defend at all. Even escaping was a problem.
Koretha gritted her teeth and grabbed Thursfield. She channeled her power, and Thursfield's body suddenly emitted a blazing light. This blazing heat had instantly risen to a terrifying level, and the approaching Demon Overlord-level wandering souls actually evaporated into thin air.
"Madam Koretha …" Thursfield only felt that his body was inflating like a balloon, and he could be crushed into pieces at any time. He couldn't help but be terrified. Before he could finish his sentence, he had already lost the ability to speak under that terrifying expansion.
Pato, Queiro, and Malton, a few country-level powerhouses, saw clearly that Koretha used a secret technique to activate Thursfield's [Spirit Flame] talent, turning Thursfield into a "human bomb". It seemed that Koretha had already done something secretly, so she deliberately spared Thursfield's life.
However, the Demi-God level existences among the wandering souls had already surrounded him. It would be difficult to escape by relying on Thursfield's spirit power to detonate.
Koretha also understood this point. Since it was a matter of life and death, she couldn't be stingy anymore. A few more rule fragments appeared in her hand. While she used her petrification talent to block the wandering souls' attacks, she consumed a large amount of her vitality and faith power to quickly fuse into Thursfield's body. The energy in Thursfield's body instantly became 10 times, 20 times, 30 times …
Soon, Thursfield had already turned into a ball that emitted violent heat, ready to explode at any moment.
Pato and the others felt that astonishing breath, and they retreated in shock.
"Boom!"
The red light shone brightly, and a monstrous heat wave surged out. This kind of fire spirit power that fused with the explosion of the rule fragments was extremely terrifying, especially to souls like the wandering souls. All the wandering souls within the range of the light turned into light smoke and dissipated. The Demi-God wandering souls closest to the center of the explosion were also torn apart, and it was difficult for them to recover for a while.
Koretha's figure disappeared into the distance like lightning with the momentum. Pato and the other two were also shocked out of their wits by the aftermath. Their bodies flew backward, and they were quickly drowned by the large number of wandering souls that had reassembled.
