Lin Huang had a strange expression on his face after reading the entire post.
Three of the top ten most deceptive missions in the post were actually suitable for him.
Apart from the Wine Ant Queen that ranked No. 1, there were two other missions that were similar to the Wine Ant Queen's situation.
One of them was the Spider Empress that ranked No. 2, while the other was the Tyrant Bug King that ranked No. 4.
The Spider Empress' situation was similar to the Wine Ant Queen's. However, the colony it built was slightly smaller, but the initial estimate was that there were at least 50 million spiders.
Moreover, there were all sorts of spider web traps in the Spider Empress' lair, and many spider fighters had lethal toxins in their bodies. Overall, the difficulty of hunting the Spider Empress was no less than hunting the Ant Queen.
Meanwhile, the Tyrant Bug King that ranked No. 4 was a male Bug King that was infertile.
However, the Bug King had powerful abilities. After going berserk, its ability could fight a first-rank True God head-on.
It had conquered tens of powerful Bug Kings with its own ability and assembled them into its army. There were more than 30 million of them.
Although it could not breed to replenish its army, the Bug King had the Tyrant divine ability. Under the coverage of its God Territory, all Protoss warriors would go berserk. Their combat strength would elevate at least two ranks, and some could even elevate three ranks.
Apart from the Tyrant Bug King itself, there were more than 30 Bug Kings under its command. All of them were high-level Virtual Gods, and seven of them were Virtual God rank-9.
When others saw the three missions, they would skip them without even thinking about it. After all, the bug horde was no joke. Even a True God would die on the spot from having his Divine Power depleted if he was drowned in the bug horde.
However, Lin Huang was secretly elated.
His main purpose in coming to the great world was to kill a large number of virtual god-level monsters to obtain Godheads. He would then refine a sea of Godheads to elevate his combat strength. At the same time, the spiritual energy obtained from killing Virtual Gods could be supplied to the God Figurine's Combat Souls in his body.
"I'm on imperial-level rank-3 now. I'll need at least ten Virtual God rank-4 monster Godheads to elevate to imperial-level rank-4. If I convert them to Virtual God rank-1 Godheads, I'll need 10,000. Based on this conversion rate, even if all the Bug Tribe fighters are on Virtual God rank-1, 100 million Bug Tribe fighters would be enough for me to elevate to Imperial-level grade-8. "
The reason why Lin Huang calculated this way was not because of the thousand-fold difference between a First Revolution Godhead and a Fourth Revolution Godhead, but because every time his battle prowess increased by a rank, the conversion efficiency of low-grade Godheads would decrease by a level.
If it wasn't for the conversion rate, every increase in battle prowess would only increase the consumption of Divine Sparks by about three times at most, instead of the current ten times.
Of course, Lin Huang's calculation was only the most conservative estimate.
These Bug Tribe fighters under the command of the Bug Queen and the Bug King could not all be Virtual God rank-1. They could not even be beginner-stage Virtual Gods. There should be quite a number of mid-stage Virtual Gods and a small number of high-level Virtual Gods.
Lin Huang made a rough estimation and knew that as long as he completed the three missions, it would not be a problem for him to elevate his combat strength to grade-9 Imperial-level.
As soon as he thought of this, he opened the mission panel again and clicked on the Black Sickle section. Soon, he found the three missions.
After confirming that there were no mistakes, he pressed the accept button three times without hesitation.
As soon as Lin Huang accepted the missions, the number of times he accepted the three missions on the mission board changed.
Soon, someone noticed the anomaly and a heated discussion began on the forum.
"I remember the Wine Ant Queen mission was accepted 13 times in the past. Why did it become 14 times today? Could it be that someone else accepted the mission today?! The Spider Empress seemed to have accepted 21 times before, but it's 22 times today … "
"What's going on? Someone else stepped on the landmine in the No. 1 mission, the Wine Ant Queen?! Could it be a newcomer who saw the points and could not resist accepting the mission? "
"It's not just the Wine Ant Queen. Someone accepted the Spider Empress and the Tyrant Bug King as well! Someone stepped on all three major missions on the same day. Could it be the same person who accepted the mission? "
"Newcomers these days are really like newborn calves that are not afraid of tigers! I hope he comes back alive and gives up on the mission, hahahaha … "
"That guy upstairs looks familiar …"
"I think he's the guy who accepted the Tyrant Bug King mission last year. In the end, he was torn apart by the bug horde and escaped the battlefield with only his underwear left."
"Hey! It's been more than a year. You guys don't have to remember it so clearly, do you?! "
…
Outside of the forum, even some of the upper echelons of Death's Scythe were paying attention to the incident.
"Someone accepted the Black Sickle mission for the Wine Ant Queen again? Is it a newcomer this time? "The person who asked was an old man with a white beard. He wore a red robe and sat at the head of the long table.
"It's a kid called Xie Lin. He just registered his Death's Scythe account today. In less than half a day, he completed three reserve missions and leveled up to Black Sickle." The person who replied was a lady in a red dress. She wore a black veil hat and had an enchanting body. Even through the veil, one could faintly see the faint smile on her face.
"Completing three reserve missions in half a day isn't considered outstanding. At most, he's good at executing." The person who said this was a man with a grim expression sitting across the lady in the red dress. There was no emotion on his face at all.
"Out of interest, I took a look at this kid's mission record. His three reserve missions were quite difficult. What's more interesting is that he didn't just accept the Wine Ant Queen mission after he was elevated to Black Sickle. Instead, he accepted three missions in one go. The other two missions were the Spider Empress and the Tyrant Bug King, "the lady in the red dress continued.
"Choosing the mission with the highest reward points only proves that he's a guy who's greedy for points," the grim man said after a moment of silence.
"Didn't you notice? All three of his mission targets have the ability to control bug hordes, "the lady in the red dress emphasized again.
"Perhaps it's just a coincidence. That doesn't mean anything." The grim man remained expressionless.
"I think he did it on purpose."
"You're overthinking it."
"Alright, let's end this discussion here. Let's start the meeting." The old man with a white beard had no choice but to mediate the dispute between the two of them.
…
Lin Huang had no idea that he was being discussed by the upper echelons of Death's Scythe at all. He did not even look at the heated discussion on the forum because of him.
There was no other reason. After accepting the three missions, he left almost without any hesitation and headed straight to the Wine Ant Queen's nest.
After a night of wandering, Lin Huang finally arrived at his destination, the Bloody Battleground, past ten in the morning the next day!
To avoid unnecessary trouble, he looked for the guard at the Combat God Temple and registered a temporary identity.
"Name?"
"Xie Lin."
"Combat strength?"
Virtual God rank-3. The answer was that Lin Huang had disguised his combat strength with a god rule relic.
"Which organization do you belong to?"
"Death's Scythe."
