I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 94. The Arrest of Mu Qingtong

Upon entering the toilet cubicle, the surrounding scene instantly blurred, transforming into countless colorful pixel blocks that rushed towards him.

Since Xia Feng was killed once by No. 11, although the identity teleportation mark on the Forest Scepter is still there, it has been judged as dead by the game mechanism and kicked out of the game. No. 10's identity will no longer be teleported.

However, he can enter the game using identity number 11.

As the dizziness from the blinding light subsided, Xia Feng looked around. This was his second time in this godforsaken place, and he knew the way much better.

On the right, although there was light on platform number 10, no one appeared in front of the control panel; it was empty.

He turned his gaze back to the number 11 control panel in front of him.

A panel with a faint glow is embedded in the center of the control panel. The panel is simple, with a dark red symbol in the center that rotates continuously clockwise.

Xia Feng tapped, and the panel flashed.

[Serial number: 11]

[Identity: Red Bull]

[Game Stage: Third Evolution Stage]

[Number of cards remaining: 30]

[Remaining Life Points: 26]

"Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. We are now entering the third phase of evolution."

In a world as dark as an abyss, thirty-seven round, tall pillars glowed faintly, with a spotlight shining down from the center of the circle.

The referee was still wearing a top hat and a pure black mask, with a dark red symbol flashing in the center:

"This round of game skill cards includes Cerberus; the real-world skill cards include the D-grade Spirit Robe Thorn Aura, the C-grade Spirit Robe Mystic Domain, the C-grade Spirit Robe Secret Essence Technique, and the C-grade Spirit Robe."

Xia Feng frowned and listened for a long time, but did not hear any information about the B-grade spirit garment.

To be honest, he wasn't really interested in C-rank; what he lacked right now was a B-rank spirit garment with offensive capabilities.

Although Rank B consumes a lot of spiritual pressure, in the third-level spiritual pressure state, the spiritual pressure will be depleted after releasing Rank B spiritual clothing two or three times.

However, having a powerful B-rank spirit garment can significantly boost one's combat strength.

In fact, Xia Feng already had a B-rank spirit garment, which was the Six-Tails he got from the Six-Tails Society.

However, the Six-Tailed Fox is primarily focused on defense and speed, and can form a defensive net with its tails, but it lacks strong offensive capabilities. Mu Qingtong doesn't seem interested in learning it, and it just stays at the Two-Tailed Fox level.

Xia Feng now wants an offensive B-grade spirit garment.

"Congratulations to player number 29 for spending 5 health points to obtain the D-grade Spirit Robe Thorn Aura."

"Congratulations to player number 34 for spending 14 health points to obtain the C-grade spirit garment, Xuanbing Domain."

The competition was fierce. Each C-rank spirit garment was bid up to 14 points. Three C-rank spirit garments were won in a row. The winners were so excited that their voices trembled.

Xia Feng watched quietly, unmoved.

His 26 health points were enough to get him two decent C-grade spirit garments, but after looking at the game rules and thinking it over, he finally decided not to buy anything this round.

According to the rules, the fourth round of auctions will feature the B-grade spirit garment "Purge Order".

This is a very powerful offensive spirit garment, and judging from the description, it seems to be a rare B-rank. Spirit garments are ranked from N to S based on the amount of spiritual pressure they consume. Some spirit garments do consume a lot of spiritual pressure, reaching the B-rank standard, but their effects are quite weak.

Therefore, even spirit garments of the same level are differentiated by quality, namely junk, common, rare, and legendary.

For example, the Six-Tails is of ordinary quality, and most spirit garments are of ordinary quality.

Rare B-grade items like the "Purge Order" are not common, and there will definitely be many people vying for them in the fourth round, with bids reaching at least 40 points.

Therefore, many people may start engaging in real-world hunting, since the profits from real-world hunting are almost three times that of ordinary prey.

It's very tempting.

Xia Feng looked down and flipped through No. 11's notes. There was very little information in them, only three lines of text.

[Number 17: Red Rat, can prey on me, codename Octopus, never seen before, not to be trusted for now]

[Number 29: Red Tiger: I can prey on you, I have already preyed on you three times]

[Number 10: Identity unknown, but can be preyed upon by me]

According to the order of the twelve zodiac animals, the order is Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, and Snake. The former restrains the latter. Xia Feng looked up at the No. 17 high platform not far away.

"Number 17's identity is Red Rat, which is my weakness, but what does the code name Octopus mean?" Xia Feng wondered.

"Evolution phase complete. Now entering trading phase. Please note that you only have thirty minutes of free trading time!"

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Xia Feng received a trade request.

Player #17 has initiated a trade conversation with you. Do you accept?

Xia Feng was somewhat surprised, but he didn't hesitate: "I accept."

The surrounding environment transforms into mottled pixels, rushing towards you.

Platform number 17 appeared directly in front of them. The figure in front of the control panel, wearing a pure black mask with the number 17 emblazoned in blood red, spoke first:
“Owl, there are orders from above. The Duke has fallen, and the bigwigs of ‘The Garden’ can now make their move on those noble ladies they want.”

So they knew each other, and even belonged to the same secret organization. Xia Feng made this judgment in his mind, while deliberately asking with feigned doubt, "Wang Jue has fallen? He's dead?"

"Are you in some remote mountain valley? Your information is so slow."

Number 17 chuckled, "Lister has been too arrogant these past few years. This time he finally met his end in the gutter. I heard he was killed by a Venerable One. He can be considered to have died a glorious death."

"Tsk, I've gone off on a tangent. Enough of this small talk, let's get back to business."

Number 17 said in a deep voice, "The king has fallen, and the high-ranking nobles associated with him are still untouchable, but the daughters of some of the lower-ranking nobles have been targeted by the big shots. Eight of them have been named and given a month to be captured."

Xia Feng frowned, realizing that this seemed to be a cult? And by targeting a noblewoman, they weren't afraid of incurring the wrath of the entire nobility?
The water here is obviously very deep.

"The eight noble ladies are Qi Menglu, Luo Na, and Zi Yunshu."

On the 17th, eight names were announced in a row. "There's one last one, Mu Qingtong, a noblewoman from the Mu family of Taicang. Two people will be responsible for one of them, and we will be responsible for capturing Mu Qingtong."

Number 17 chuckled softly, looking at Xia Feng, "How about it, Owl? I remember this little beauty was one of the top ten in the Spirit Song Competition, right? She's almost got a hundred million fans now, tsk tsk, and she's a noble lady too. We're so lucky~ hehe~"

Xia Feng stared coldly at Number 17 with dead fish eyes, his voice flat: "Tell me the specific plan."
