Chapter 629 - 626: The Final 10,000 Honor Points
Bai Pu consecutively defeated three top experts; even the first Sword Saint candidate, Zhuoyun, died at his hands.
At this moment, Bai Pu, carrying the momentum of having defeated the three experts, joined the fray, immediately instilling fear in the Xian Mountain Awakened.
If it weren’t for the Awakened being used to risking their lives in the Spirit Realm, possessing courage beyond the ordinary, and holding a sense of invincibility and self-confidence, they would have scattered long ago.
"Everyone, don’t be scared by him."
Iron Fox shouted sternly, "No matter how strong Gangxin may be, after such a big battle, how much energy can he have left? Now, he’s even turned off his Domain, clearly a shell with nothing inside!"
"Lord Iron Fox is right!"
"Killing Gangxin might even yield purple equipment."
"Kill, kill, kill!"
A few of Iron Fox’s confidants slightly stirred up the crowd, and immediately many of the Xian Mountain Awakened regained their morale, shouting as they confronted Bai Pu.
An Awakened from Xian Mountain with a bump on his head rushed out first. His weapon was a harpoon, which, when waved, brought forth streaks of electricity, forming a vague pattern of a thunder and lightning dragon.
Bai Pu reached out and grabbed, and the Awakened with the bump only felt a blur before his eyes; the middle section of the harpoon was actually tightly gripped by Bai Pu’s long, powerful hand!
Then came an irresistible force; the bump Awakened felt a pain in his palm, and the harpoon he held with both hands was taken away by Bai Pu single-handedly. The electric dragon only left wisps of smoke on Bai Pu’s body, then dissipated completely.
Bai Pu casually flipped his hand, twirled and thrust, and in an instant, the harpoon pierced through the bump Awakened’s chest, seconds to kill!
"Yaksha Sea Exploration? You wield this skill even better than me..."
The bump Awakened’s pupils gradually dilated.
Bai Pu did not reply.
In actuality, his agility and attack speed far surpassed that of the bump Awakened, even without learning the Yaksha Sea Exploration skill, with normal attacks, he could still strike with speed and power far exceeding the opponent’s skills.
"My energy is indeed heavily consumed."
"However, with my current attack speed and defensive capability, I don’t need to expend extra Fighting Qi, and can still kill the enemy!"
Bai Pu bore the diverse skill attacks of the enemies with his physical body, retaliating with short spear thrusts.
His short spear thrusts had reached a realm of profound simplicity, appearing completely unadorned, yet the enemies found themselves unable to evade, parry, or withstand!
Bai Pu struck with almost one thrust per enemy, achieving terrifying kill efficiency.
Of course, the reason Bai Pu was able to strike so efficiently was his attack speed breaking past 300, along with 280 points of fixed damage reduction (primarily physical reduction).
Often when the enemy attacked, Bai Pu’s hand guarding staff would tap, adding another layer of status.
[Final Breath] and [Wall of Despair] could infinitely stack layers, practically a glitch.
Especially in group battles, when enemy levels weren’t high, allowing Bai Pu to stack layers was most terrifying.
Never forget that Bai Pu was not fighting alone.
The Iron Wall Guild, the Hero Gang, and most importantly, the official Archer Team, constantly provided remote output.
The battle quickly concluded, with even Iron Fox being captured alive by Bai Pu, shackled with Bloody Torture Devices.
...
"Gangxin, this time we truly must thank you."
While tidying up the battlefield and clearing remnants, Drunken Flower Forest approached.
Bai Pu nodded at him.
Seeing Bai Pu’s cold attitude, Drunken Flower Forest smiled wryly and said, "Last time during the Celestial Human War, I was enchanted by Cyan Vault and didn’t fight alongside you. I missed my promise. Blame me."
Bai Pu shook his head, "I don’t blame you."
The Celestial Human War was inherently a deceitful, cooperative battlefield. Bai Pu had no right to demand Drunken Flower Forest abandon his hopes of victory to assist Bai Pu.
His cold attitude towards Drunken Flower Forest was simply due to Bai Pu’s nature.
Even today, he maintained a guarded attitude towards the Awakened of the real world, with only two or three people managing to penetrate Bai Pu’s defenses.
After completely cleaning up the Xian Mountain Border Area, good news came from other border areas as well.
The Special Service Bureau began the intensive interrogation of Iron Fox.
After falling into legal nets, Iron Fox did not remain tight-lipped.
This individual was quite interesting; every few hours, he’d divulge some intelligence regarding the Sea Race invasion, and this intelligence could be verified due to other high-level Xian Mountain Awakened also being captured.
As a top-level Awakened, Iron Fox possessed high spiritual resistance, with ordinary spiritual suggestions and control-like magic having very minimal effect; only primitive physical means could be relied upon for interrogation.
The interrogation of Iron Fox was destined to be a prolonged battle; this individual still had much value and could not be killed for the time being.
Bai Pu returned to the Cloud Palace Border Area and first carried out the loot draw.
Zhuoyun’s Bloody Treasure Chest, since he attacked Bai Pu first, saw an enhancement in loot rating.
Bai Pu didn’t consider anything else; he aimed for Honor from Zhuoyun’s Treasure Chest. Compared to the most urgent task now—promotion to Golden Vice Admiral—all spiritual artifacts and equipment were not that important.
Unfortunately, only a card was drawn, resulting in Honor Points being drawn, earning Bai Pu over six thousand Honor. The other card resulted in Spiritual Points.
But that was sufficient.
[Your Spirit Realm War Honor is: 60948/40000.]
[You can now be promoted to the Colonel rank, requirement: Golden Medal*1]
Bai Pu used a Golden Medal to directly ascend to Golden Colonel.
Soon, a new prompt arrived.
[Your Spirit Realm War Honor is: 60948/70000.]
[When you accumulate 70,000 Honor Points, you can use one Golden Medal to be promoted to Quasi-General rank.]
"Only less than ten thousand honor is left."
This extermination of the Child of the Sea organization’s main force, especially capturing Iron Fox and killing the Bronze Brigadier Level Otherworld Traveler and Zhuoyun, allowed Bai Pu’s Honor Points to increase rapidly; the Shell Face Sea Race Otherworld Traveler alone earned Bai Pu nearly twenty thousand Honor, truly providing aid in urgent needs.
The big shots of the Nine-Person Council were all invigorated upon learning this news.
"I suggest not interrogating Iron Fox any longer. Let Gangxin kill him directly to see if he can explode into Honor. He is also a Bronze Brigadier!"
"Iron Fox was caught by Gangxin; he certainly has a deep sense of Gangxin’s strength, making it impossible to make him attack actively, nor raise the Bloody Treasure Chest’s rating level."
"That’s right; Iron Fox has always cherished his cleanliness, having other people conduct those illegal killings, leaving his Bloody Value less than 10 points! If Gangxin kills him directly, the final Bloody Treasure Chest will surely have no options to exclude, with too high a chance of randomly drawing equipment or items."
In the end, Speaker Wan provided a suggestion.
"Recently, several Plane Worlds have been showing signs of disturbance. Isn’t Gangxin planning to orchestrate a Plane War? Go ahead! Transfer all the National Destiny Artifacts meant for Gangxin to him, striving to promote him to Golden Vice Admiral as soon as possible!"
