It was true that Yang Ling liked Hong Zhuang. As for whether Hong Zhuang liked Yang Ling, Lin Huang had no idea. He did not want to delve too deeply into this question.
However, as a friend, he would fulfill Yang Ling's last wish and help him take care of Hong Zhuang.
After settling Hong Zhuang down, Lin Huang collected his thoughts.
Yang Ling's death had given him an even greater sense of crisis.
The Raiders were more powerful and despicable than he had expected.
To Lin Huang, the best way to get rid of this sense of crisis was to elevate his ability.
"I'll fill up the number of god rules with my Godly Right as soon as possible. That way, I'll be able to refine them and elevate to heavenly god-level as soon as Virtuoso's half-step Lord God Territory arrives!"
Although there were other ways to elevate his ability, Lin Huang decided to fill up the number of god rules first after a moment's thought.
His Godly Right had already integrated one and a half billion god rules, so he was not far from reaching its limit.
Furthermore, this mission was not difficult. He only had to kill Heavenly Gods to complete it.
However, Lin Huang wanted to kill two birds with one stone. Therefore, he opened the mission page of the Death's Scythe forum and began searching for missions.
Although it would be slower to obtain god rules by killing a mission target, he would be rewarded handsomely.
To Lin Huang, who would need massive amounts of resources to redeem half-step Lord God Territories multiple times in the future, it was still something no matter how small it was. After all, most people accumulated their wealth bit by bit like this.
If he did not accept any missions today or tomorrow, when would he be able to gather enough money to build a half-step Lord God Territory?
"If only I could get a mortgage … I could pay it off in installments of a million years and pay it off slowly!"
As soon as he thought of the exorbitant price of a half-step Lord God Territory, Lin Huang even began to miss the mortgages on Earth.
After collecting his thoughts, he looked at the mission page again.
Gold Sickle missions corresponded to heavenly god-level difficulty.
Generally speaking, either the assassination target was a Heavenly God, or there would be a conflict with a heavenly god-level powerhouse during the mission.
Lin Huang scanned through the mission list and found that the missions were arranged according to the time they were released. The later the missions were released, the higher they were on the list.
He immediately changed the order and chose to rank them according to the most generous rewards.
The quest list immediately changed.
Lin Huang scanned the mission list again and found that most of the missions at the top had not changed.
The top-ranked mission was still the same, which was to kill a half-step lord-level Bug Tribe Queen Mother. It had been issued over eight thousand years ago.
In the past eight thousand years, no one had ever completed this mission.
Lin Huang only glanced at the title and continued to read. He didn't even look at what the reward was.
A half-step lord-level powerhouse was still an insurmountable peak for him within a short period of time.
What more a half-step lord-level Bug Tribe Queen Mother who might have a lord-level Bug Queen protecting her?
Skipping this mission, Lin Huang looked at the second one.
It was still the same familiar title — Hunting the Zerg Queen Mother.
To be precise, it was to kill a fallen Queen Mother in the Abyss.
This fallen Queen Mother's combat strength was also half-step lord-level.
Lin Huang skipped over it again and looked at the third mission.
It was the same mission as last time — Hunting the half-step lord-level Succubus Mia.
Lin Huang shook his head helplessly and scanned the rest quickly.
He skipped over a dozen half-step lord-level missions and looked at the ninth-rank heavenly god-level missions.
"Hunting God Capital King Kong …"
"King Kong, Saber Cultivator, suspected to be rank-5 and a half, ninth-rank heavenly god-level combat strength …"
The top-ranked mission was to kill King Kong.
Lin Huang was no stranger to King Kong. He was the strongest heavenly god-level powerhouse in God Capital, and his abilities might not be any weaker than Zang Tian's.
He was a powerful being who could fight half-step lord-level powerhouses head-on.
When the Great Heaven Territory had been opened, King Kong had been God Capital's team leader, and Lin Huang had met him once.
"This fellow's abilities might be on par with Zang Tian's. Among the heavenly god-level powerhouses in the God Territory, his abilities are definitely among the top three." Lin Huang did not think that he could fight King Kong in his current state.
He skipped over King Kong and saw another familiar name.
"Hunting Combat God Temple's Invincible Tyrant …"
"Invincible Tyrant, Spear Cultivator, suspected to be rank-5 and a half, ninth-rank heavenly god-level combat strength …"
Invincible Tyrant, King Kong, and Zang Tian were powerhouses of the same level. All three of them had already reached peak heavenly god-level. They had been accumulating at ninth-rank heavenly god-level for many years, all for the sake of breaking through to lord-level in one fell swoop.
Although the rewards for such prey were generous, Lin Huang did not think much of it at the moment.
He continued to look down and finally found a suitable prey.
"Hunting God Capital's Shen Jue …"
"Shen Jue, Saber Cultivator, supreme god-level rank-5, ninth-rank heavenly god-level combat strength …"
"Reward for Mission Completion: Pseudo-Dao Weapon x1"
Lin Huang had heard of this Shen Jue person before.
On the God Territory's Heavenly God Leaderboard, this person ranked seventh.
However, Lin Huang knew about him not because of the leaderboard, but because his name often appeared in Death's Scythe's forum.
This fellow was an absolute racist.
He was born in the God Territory's largest pureblood clan, the Shen family, and he was a direct descendant of the Shen family. Therefore, ever since he was young, he had a sense of superiority over others who were inferior to him.
His looks were unparalleled, but his personality was extremely violent and extreme.
In his eyes, all living beings other than pureblood Protoss were no different from beasts, only fit to be slaves.
His favorite thing to do was to buy slaves of various races and torture them. Once he was tired of playing with them, he would kill them using all sorts of methods.
However, due to his identity and abilities, the others dared not speak up even though they were furious.
"I can't believe this scum is also a mission target." Lin Huang raised his brows. "His abilities should be on par with mine now …"
After thinking about it, Lin Huang accepted this mission.
To him, he was naturally willing to accept missions with generous rewards that could be easily completed. However, he also felt that challenging missions like this were a form of training for himself.
Moreover, this fellow called Shen Jue really deserved to die!
After accepting Shen Jue's mission, Lin Huang continued to read down. To his surprise, it was another familiar name.
"Hunting God Capital's Shen Yu (Yu) …
"Shen Yu, sword cultivator, supreme god-level rank-5, combat level ninth-rank heavenly god-level …
"Mission Completion Reward: One Pseudo-Dao Weapon."
Shen Yu was Shen Jue's biological sister. The two of them were twins.
The siblings had grown up together, and their personalities were practically carved from the same mold. She often did evil with Shen Jue, and the two of them would even exchange slaves for fun.
There were even rumors that Shen Jue liked to torture slaves, and she was the one who taught him how to do so.
Her abilities were not weak either. She ranked eleventh on the God Territory's Heavenly God Leaderboard and could be considered a prodigy.
Without hesitation, Lin Huang accepted this mission as well.
After that, he read down one by one and accepted more than twenty missions in one go before closing the mission page.
