After assisting the Blackthorn tribe in slaying the 107 mutalisks, Sheyan's reputation soared once again. In actual fact, only a pervert like him would dare to take such a gamble. Because in the instance he leapt out of Shenxu's sac, he would definitely suffer from the spore bullets of the mutalisks. Although the spore bullets only dealt 50% of the original damage, but at least 40 mutalisks would've fired their spores at Sheyan! If not for his' Endurance 'protection, he would've been insta-killed on the spot!
Of course, high risks were exchanged for high returns. After Sheyan's reputation had risen, he had directly reached the 'Worshipped' standard of the Blackthorn tribe! He could now view the highest grade exchange rewards! After he retrieved the exchange menu from the Mother of the Blackthorns, he and Mogensha both sucked in a breath of cold air.
Your reputation with the arachnid tribe 'Blackthorn' has reached 'Worshipped'. You are unable to exchange for any special units in the current difficulty.
You can exchange for the following passive abilities:
'Zergling Genetic Improved Adrenaline': Permanently increases your movement speed by 33%. Cost: 15,000 reputation points, 2,500 utility points.
'Hydralisk Muscle Contraction Hormone': Permanently increases your long range attack range by 15%. Cost: 15,000 reputation points, 2,500 utility points.
'Arachnid Chitin Healing Serum': Permanently increases your defence by 2 points. Cost: 15,000 reputation points, 2,500 utility points.
'Mother Nest's Strength': Increases all attributes by 1 point. Cost: 25,000 reputation points, 5,000 utility points.
Details: Arachnid passive abilities cannot be stacked, only the highest value will be used. (For example, if Sheyan first exchanged for the 'Zergling Genetic Improved Adrenaline' which increases movement speed by 33% in this difficulty, he could exchange for the 'Zergling Genetic Improved Adrenaline II' which can permanently increase movement speed by 50%. Then the movement speed increase would be 50%, and not 83%.)
Details: You can assist other contestants in exchanging.
Naturally, the most worthwhile exchange was the 'Mother Nest's Strength'. As long as he could successfully exchange for it, then not only would he be able to make up for the deficit in his attributes, it would also be a huge profit!
Currently, Sheyan's available reputation points were: Neutral – Amicable – 3000; Amicable – Respected – 6000; Respected – Revered – 12000; Revered – Worshipped – 21000. Sheyan's current reputation was at the terrifying 'Worshipped' level, and he still had 6000 reputation points. In total, he could utilize 48000 reputation points. As for Mogensha's' Revered 'level, he had just reached' Revered 'level, hence he still had 22000 reputation points.. However, there was a problem. Sheyan's Worshipped's Strength, his reputation would drop below 'Worshipped', he would no longer be able to exchange.
Therefore, after discussing with Mogensha, Sheyan decided that Mogensha would give him 20000 reputation points and 5000 utility points, while Sheyan would use 5000 reputation points to help Mogensha exchange for the Mother nest's power. As for Sheyan, he still had 'Worshipped' reputation, and exchanged for 'Mother Nest's Strength', all attributes + 1. At present, his total reputation points had dropped to 18000 points, and was stuck at 'Respected' (900012000).
Of course, although Mogensha's reputation had dropped to 'Neutral', his personal relationship with Overmind Mozi and the Mother of the Blackthorns was still present. Hence, nothing had changed. The only difference was that the arachnid troops wouldn't bow to him, and he wouldn't be able to obtain the corresponding purchasing privileges from the Mother of the Blackthorns. Just as the two of them were rubbing their palms and preparing to head to the Redliner tribe to earn more reputation points, an unexpected situation suddenly occurred!
That was, their achievement points had once again plunged! Because they had already died previously, within a short span of 10 minutes, their achievement points had plummeted by 4 points!!! Unfortunately, the deduction of achievement points wasn't fully effective, because the deduction of achievement points for this main mission had a limit of 6 points! Apart from that, even if someone died in the process, even if the main character of the mission died, their achievement points wouldn't be deducted anymore.
This implied that Reef's little party had already reached their limits after a long and drawn-out battle. Hence, even though no one had died in the first few hours, once a certain link collapsed, it would trigger a domino like chain reaction, causing the entire defensive perimeter to crumble!
Mogensha observed the string of reduced achievement points, and felt rather regretful in his heart. Sometimes, one couldn't afford to make a wrong choice in life. For example, when compared to Berserk Harnik and Qiaoer's strength, even if they were inferior, it was still limited. The only difference was that they chose Reef, this seemingly thick legged brat, while Mogensha chose Seaman, this potential stock. From the looks of it, Seaman was truly a hidden talent. He had actually forcefully used the flesh and blood of the arachnids to carve out a path for himself in this side mission!
"Damn it ….." Thinking of this, Mogensha started to reminisce about the human side mission he had abandoned – 'Destroy the Spore Colony'! His vision couldn't help but darken! If he had known that the Blackthorn tribe and the Redliner tribe would clash, how could he have given up on such a seemingly difficult mission? Fortunately, Seaman seemed rather forthright, with the air of a great general. Although he had suffered a loss in the short term, in the long term, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Suddenly, their nightmare imprints vibrated slightly, as a violent coughing sound drifted in. That sound was shockingly the weak voice of a woman, and sounded rather familiar. Mogensha immediately recognized it, it was indeed that mage summoner, Tulip, who had chosen to follow Reef and Mogensha.
"No matter who you are ….. no matter how harsh your conditions are ….. we'll accept them."
"Please save us, our coordinates are XXX, XXX."
"We've been forced into a desperate situation, along with 4 other crucial storyline characters, we can at most hold on for another 6 ….. hours."
When Mogensha heard this cry for help, he faintly shook his head. Naturally, there were two paths laid out in front of him. One was to earn more reputation points from the Redliner tribe, and conveniently complete the side mission. The other was to rescue Reef and the rest. The first path, under the circumstances where the Blackthorn tribe had already obtained absolute control over the skies, was undoubtedly an incomparably bright and open road. But the second path was an extremely risky path with extremely low returns. Even an idiot would know which path to choose.
Ever since young, Mogensha was accustomed to bloodshed and murder. After spending so many years in the nightmare realm, Mogensha had long seen through everything. He casually stood up and patted his golden AK.
"Let's go, boss. Those Redliner arachnids are still waiting for us to clean them up."
When Sheyan heard Mogensha calling him 'boss', his eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't reject. He suddenly asked.
"Why can we hear that bitch Tulip's voice?"
Mogensha pondered a little and replied.
"This should be a special telepathic communication method similar to the broodmother's, but the utility points required to use it are quite astonishing. It might even deduct some basic attribute points. By the way, boss, you can tell that this woman is a bitch?"
Sheyan sneered.
"Only a brat like Reef would fall for it. When that woman was fleeing, her peak speed was even faster than a berserk Harnik. It would be weird if she didn't have some tricks up her sleeve. Forget it, let's not talk about her. I've just calculated, the distance between Tulip's coordinates and here isn't too far, only 1100 kilometres. Currently, after the Blackthorn Mother nest had upgraded to 'II' class, its related technology had also improved. Even an ordinary Overlord would possess the transportation and speedy flight capabilities of a formidable variant elite, 'Shenxu'. Of course, its HP and defence would still be far from that. If we purchase an Overlord, then we would only need 2 and a half hours to reach there. "
Mogensha was astonished.
"Don't tell me you're thinking of rescuing her now?"
Sheyan glanced at him, meaningfully replying.
"Do you want to lose 3 of your highest attribute points for nothing?"
Mogensha was momentarily stunned, his thoughts flickered as he asked.
"Don't tell me you're thinking of rescuing the main character, Johnny Regal?"
Sheyan chuckled and replied.
"We'll act according to the circumstances. Furthermore, I've just inquired, the only arachnid tribe that is hostile to the Blackthorn tribe is the Redliner tribe. The conflict between them is a regional hegemony. Hence, if we carry the Blackthorn Overlord over, then as long as we don't encounter the Redliner tribe, the other arachnids would display a neutral and indifferent attitude. Of course, once we appear with the Overlord, the other arachnids would naturally attack both the Overlord and us."
"But ….." Mogensha hesitated. "If we head over now, it's totally not worth it. A round trip would take at least 5 hours, what if the Redliner tribe attacks at this time? Also, if we use these 5 hours to hunt the Redliner tribe arachnids, then our rewards might not be lesser than rescuing the Overlord. The risks would also be lesser! "
"No! If we don't slay those hundred plus Mutalisks, the Redliner tribe might launch a probing attack. If not, the chances of them attacking at this time would be miniscule. " Sheyan firmly nodded his head and continued. "Furthermore, if we head over, our rewards might be greater than staying behind. I'll still say the same thing, if you're willing to follow, you can stay behind. "
Following that, Sheyan obtained some utility points from Mogensha, and went to the Mother nest to exchange for an Overlord that could be used as a flying transport. He then exchanged for 2 more Mutalisks to act as escorts. These 2 Overlords weren't meant to attack, but to attract any possible threats, allowing the Overlord to swiftly escape. (To be continued.
