Chapter 549 - 346: The Trialist Who Broke the Rules (4K)_2

"At present, there are four regions that appear to be the most valuable."

Naturally, in each of these four regions, there was the possibility of encountering legendary enemies.

Which one should be visited first?

Intelligence always had a shelf life; wait a bit longer and you might not find any valuable clues at all.

Mu Yuan wasn't torn about it. "Just go to all of them simultaneously."

This time, the officers from Tianyuan Territory entering the Trial Secret Realm included:

General Dead Bone, General Duo Lai, Hong Yi, Rakshasa, Uta, Xi Liu, Lainey, Hua Ling, and the Arrow of Polar Star 'Zhou Yi'.

Zhou Yi was, besides Seventeen, the most talented individual within the Arrow of Polar Star.

His level wasn't high, merely third-order.

However, the Arrow of Polar Star boasted an incredibly long shooting range and had also learned the 'Eagle Strike the Sky' skill from the Elves. Setting aside Combat Power, Zhou Yi of the Arrow of Polar Star could provide significant strategic value.

For Mu Yuan's luxurious team, one more or one less high-order fourth-order strongman didn't really matter.

Mu Yuan selected four targets and incidentally took on three tasks—oh, it's worth mentioning that these destinations were high-value targets analyzed through task information, not the same as the urgent tasks issued by the kingdom.

Even for the three urgent tasks he had taken on, his attitude was that they could be done or left undone.

What? Urgent tasks are of great importance, affecting the political situation?

He was the political situation.

Team Dead Bone; Team Duo Lai; Mu Yuan's own team; a team with Uta, Rakshasa, Hong Yi, Zhou Yi;

Four teams quickly set off.

Several hours later,

Pure White Kingdom, Capital City.

The Golden Lion Prince, Glasses Man, Catwoman, and a few other trialists gathered again. Most of them had not left the Capital City but merely dispatched their top generals to lead teams to carry out tasks.

For the Trial Lords, if their officers perished, they could still continue the trial and search for hope. But once they themselves died in battle, that would be game over.

Moreover, they also needed to figure out ways to increase their standing in the eyes of the local legends; only then could they influence the decisions of Pure White Kingdom at critical moments, invite the kingdom's legends for assistance, and possess the strength to turn the tides.

Establishing friendly relations with legends was also part of their strategy.

However, reputation within the kingdom was also indispensable; combining the two would significantly boost their standing in the eyes of the kingdom's legends.

That was usually the case...

"Should we say, befitting a prince from the Holy Griffon Empire?"

The looks Glasses Man and the others gave the Golden Lion Prince were somewhat complex.

Just now, they had met the leader of the Pure White Knights, known as the Pure White Sword King, the strongest fighter in the kingdom. Initially, in the eyes of the kingdom's legends, they were nothing more than 'decent fighters,' 'ancient heroic spirits that could be used ruthlessly,' but when the Golden Lion Prince revealed his angel follower, the Pure White Sword King's gaze changed.

His attitude became very friendly.

If it could be quantified, it would be goodwill +1+1+1.

"Originally, we might have needed six or seven days to establish a sufficiently solid relationship, but now, with the face given by the Golden Lion Prince, two or three days might be enough. The chances of passing the trial have greatly increased!"

"Indeed, all thanks to His Highness the Prince."

"At this point, the Lord of Yongxing is probably still hitting walls everywhere, right? But then again, apart from that initial meeting in the hall where we saw him, it seems like we haven't seen Lord of Yongxing since."

The magician murmured.

Glasses Man still held no optimistic views, "Our current progress is good, but the enemy seems to be more formidable than expected. Not long ago, my team tried to snipe a forty-meter-class Aggregated monster but failed, and it seems that flesh-and-blood Aggregates of three to forty meters in size appear on the front lines from time to time."

Catwoman took over the conversation, "My team... my team almost ran into trouble, they had a close brush with a legendary monster! Even though I had already avoided one dangerous area after another, I didn't expect to still nearly face disaster, and it's only the first day!"

Glasses Man pushed his glasses up, "This just indicates that the number of legendary monsters is far beyond our expectations."

The Golden Lion Prince did not speak; he couldn't exactly join in complaining about the difficulty of the trial—he had his pride as the Golden Lion Prince, even though he felt the same way.

Something didn't seem right to him.

Compared to dozens of historical trial records he had reviewed, was the trial he was experiencing... too difficult?

...

Boom—

A forty-meter-tall flesh Aggregated monster riddled with rotting flesh crashed to the ground.

Mu Yuan wiped the blood from his clothes, clearly dissatisfied.

Six hours, a full six hours, and he still hadn't encountered any legendary monsters. Was this reasonable?

```

He had clearly pushed hard into the danger zone!

Before him was a town that had already sunk into blood and fire. By the time Mu Yuan arrived, there were hardly any survivors in the entire town, save for one elite soldier who had retreated from the front line and was barely hanging on to life.

It seemed like the elite soldier had a momentary resurgence, as he took out a blood-stained medal, "Cough cough, please... please be sure to deliver the message... that a hundred kilometers away at Deadwood Village there is... there is a legend."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the soldier breathed his last.

Bringing back such crucial information could have been worth several urgent tasks, substantially increasing his own kingdom's reputation.

However...

Even if the Trial Lord could call for legendary reinforcements from the capital city, by the time they came and went... no, even if it was just one way, the enemy would have long since disappeared.

"Xi Liu, let's go!"

The Red Dragon roared, and Mu Yuan rode Xi Liu, rushing towards Deadwood Village at top speed.

At the same time,

"Boom—"

A powerful flame soared into the sky, its might spreading for tens of thousands of meters around.

Duo Lai was killing monsters in a high-profile manner.

Intelligence indicated that not long ago, several powerful ancient heroic spirits had perished in this area.

Before their deaths, these heroic spirits had been ambushing blood-flesh aggregated monsters and some high-order intelligence monsters.

Clearly, if kingdom elites hunted monsters too fiercely or too ostentatiously, they would attract the attention of legendary monsters.

This situation was not unique to this area.

It was happening in various places and regions.

Therefore, kingdom elites had to be extremely cautious when ambushing intelligence monsters. They would take a shot and change locations immediately, daring not to linger or make any earth-shattering commotions.

But Duo Lai...

"Lord said, killing more monsters is never wrong. Theoretically, as long as the Monster Tide is wiped out, the kingdom's crisis will be resolved, right?"

So Duo Lai turned into an artillery battery, continuously firing without stop.

With this level of output, it could maintain a non-stop barrage for seven days and seven nights.

The number of monsters it had killed so far was beyond count, greatly reducing the pressure on the troops behind it.

"But this method of bombing is likely to provoke legendary beings among the monsters!"

Tens of kilometers away, lieutenants of the Trial Lord, drawn by the noise, arrived.

They too were Fourth-order Strongmen.

Among them were top elites with large-scale destruction skills, and heroes with Strategic Skills like 'Meteor Shower' and 'Flame of Heaven.'

Using their skills, they would have no trouble wiping out one or two waves of monsters.

But, what then?

They dared not do so. Ambushing a few high-order intelligence monsters was feasible. Yet to forcefully cut through a Monster Tide for short-term gain would put them in mortal danger.

The sky suddenly darkened.

The ground too became a black marsh, spreading for two to three thousand kilometers around.

"It's, it's the Legendary Realm! Legendary Domain!"

The black marsh spread from the ground to the sky.

A pair of colossal pincers, large as mountains, burst from the murky waters, lunging towards the delicate girl riding a flying Slime in mid-air.

The girl sitting cross-legged on top, however, suddenly had her eyes light up.

Behind her, a black and white scroll emerged.

Out of the white backdrop of the scroll, a black serpent violently shot out, erasing the black marsh as if it were pencil marks removed by an eraser, creating vast areas of blank space.

The black marsh Domain began to fluctuate, and in the next moment it froze.

Just like the mountainous pincers that had risen from the swampy dark waters and now were suspended in mid-air.

Crack/Crack/Crack!

Space shattered, the ground shattered, the Domain shattered, and the mountainous pincers shattered too.

The collapsing space enveloped the surrounding hundreds of kilometers, slicing and swallowing everything around it, leaving only a girl sitting on the Slime in the center of the broken space, like a god demon.
