The Fire Thief Chapter 41: Sending Heads Across the Distance
In the luxurious and spacious hall of a spaceship.
There are thousands of people sitting here, they are the real ruling class of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. The "Cosmic Humanity - Top Genius Battle" is a grand event for the entire universe and is open to all cosmic countries. In this case, the contestants from each star field also represent the face and honor of their respective empires.
The Emperor of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire was extremely concerned.
“ Hahahaha …” The Emperor of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, wearing a dark imperial robe, laughed heartily, and his laughter echoed in the hall.
At the front of the hall, there was a huge screen, which was displaying the number of Black Dragon Mountain Empire candidates who had passed the preliminary selection (temporarily): 1, with Lin Yan’s name also displayed at the back.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
"This young talent named Lin Yan has been ranked in the top 300 since entering the 88th World Zone, and now he is even in the top 100!"
"The people of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire are extremely excited, proud and delighted at this moment!"
"This is all because of your Majesty's clear and fair governance. Under your Majesty's leadership, the empire is prosperous and strong!"
One of the nobles fawned on the emperor, and the other nobles echoed him. These were the nobles of the empire itself, the realm lords, the domain lords, and the emperors of the more than 500 primary civilized countries under the jurisdiction of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.
The emperor seemed more relaxed.
"Very good. Very good."
"Being able to maintain this ranking for seven consecutive days shows that Lin Yan does have such ability. As long as his luck isn't too bad, passing the preliminaries shouldn't be a problem."
"In previous genius competitions, our Black Dragon Mountain Empire always came last in the Qianwu Universe. This time, we can finally hold our heads high!"
The emperor laughed heartily and said in a loud voice: "My lords, drink with me."
He raised the wine glass in his hand, and the dignitaries below also raised their glasses in response, making the scene quite lively.
suddenly--
Beside the emperor, a seemingly elegant old man received an email, his brows furrowed, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
The emperor glanced at him, noticed his abnormality, and asked softly, "What happened?"
"Your Majesty, the people we sent out have discovered Lin Yan's location in World Zone 88 and have been observing his situation, but... his situation is very dangerous."
"Oh?" The emperor's eyes narrowed.
It is one thing that Lin Yan has the ability to pass the preliminaries, but if he encounters an opponent who is too strong at such an early time, the final result will naturally be elimination.
"According to the news, there are 23 people preparing to besiege Lin Yan. The weakest of these people are among the top 10,000 in the world!"
"Among them, the strongest is the spiritualist codenamed 'Red Eyebrow'. According to analysis, he has already crossed the threshold of the law of the origin of lightning!"
This old man was one of the realm masters attending the banquet and was also the emperor's true confidant, but at this moment he looked solemn.
When the emperor heard this, his face changed.
Step into the threshold of the original law!
A genius who can step into the threshold of the laws at the stellar level definitely has the ability to compete for the top thousand in the Qianwu Universe!
Lin Yan actually met such a genius so early!
Moreover, there were 23 people besieging at the same time. One has to know that those who can rank among the top 10,000 in the world are likely to have reached the fourth or fifth level!
The smile on his face faded, and he said in a deep voice: "Let our people immediately broadcast Lin Yan's current situation and connect the footage to the screen in front !"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The old man bowed and immediately began to make arrangements.
The picture quickly appeared on the screen in the hall.
Many dignitaries looked bewildered.
The emperor looked around with a serious expression: "At this moment, Lin Yan encountered an enemy that is difficult to deal with in the world zone."
"But! Even if he fails this time, he still made great contributions to our Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Please join me in cheering him on."
Thousands of people in the hall stopped smiling and looked towards the huge screen.
…
Day 8 of the qualifiers.
Nightfall.
The wind was howling and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
The mountain road was covered with cracks, and dried blood and corpses could be seen everywhere.
Lin Yan was wearing golden armor and did not conceal his whereabouts at all. He swept his mental power across, sweeping and investigating with no scruples.
"Although I am very efficient at killing, the area I affect is still limited. Now that I am famous, everyone is trying to avoid me, so I can only rank 97th, and it will be difficult to improve from there."
He shook his head and smiled: "But it's not a big deal, just avoid it, it won't have much impact. When the time comes to the last two days, all the points will be concentrated on the strong. Killing one person at random will be better than killing tens of thousands now."
If he really unleashed all his fighting power and moved on the Sky-Smashing Shuttle, he would naturally get the first place easily, but that would be too troublesome and unnecessary.
There is still a long time.
suddenly--
He paused.
The ice and snow in his cold eyes melted away in an instant, his eyes became clear, his handsome face smiled slightly, and his voice was clear: "Everyone, you are coming here with such a fierce force, I wonder what you mean?"
call!
Under the blood-red moonlight, a black streak of light flew quickly, and a graceful woman in black suddenly appeared on the treetops in the front left, holding a black-purple scimitar shaped like a waning moon.
She has a pretty face, but only whites in her eyes.
The voice was hoarse: "Kill you."
In an instant, the shadows of the trees shook!
I saw figures standing on the treetops, some fat, some thin, some tall, some short, but under the bloody moonlight, they exuded a heart-pounding aura.
The young man in gray held a rapier in his hand and asked with a smile, "Do you still remember me?"
This time he was the one who organized the group. After the Red Eyebrows joined, he met four more people, and they all readily agreed.
"God" will die here!
We must win this battle!
"Of course I remember." Lin Yan glanced at him, nodded slightly, and said softly: "The escaped bug."
Three days ago, he encountered this gray-clothed young man in a killing. Because Lin Yan was only using the second form of the Arc Blade Disc, the "Arc Blade Wheel", and did not integrate the original law into it, he was able to escape successfully.
Lin Yan was too lazy to chase him at that time, so he just let him go.
I didn't expect that in such a short time, he would dare to unite with other powerful men, wanting to gather everyone's strength to besiege me!
You have to eliminate yourself from the preliminaries in the first ten days!
Who among those present is not a powerful figure in this area?
There are twenty-three people in total. What should I do?
This is really...really great!
Lin Yan looked at the young man in gray with a gentle gaze that revealed praise. Young man, you did a great job!
He was touched.
He traveled thousands of miles to deliver a head, and brought a big gift package with him. How could he not be moved by such kindness?
The gray-clothed young man's face turned cold, and he sneered: "You don't have to show off your verbal skills. Tonight, we are all gathered here, and you will not be able to escape this disaster!"
At this time.
A woman in white battle clothes held a broadsword in her hand, and looked down at Lin Yan with a pair of slender phoenix eyes, with an arrogant look: "I am the princess of the royal family of Qianwu Universe. You have great talent and are qualified to be my subject."
"If you are willing to submit to me, not only can I ask them to let you go, but I will also give you unimaginable wealth, glory, beauties, treasures, everything you want!"
"Now, give me an answer!"
She looked so high and mighty, like a phoenix above the nine heavens, as if being able to submit to her was a gift to Lin Yan.
The others frowned, but said nothing more.
After all, they are the royal family of Qianwu Universe Kingdom, with extremely high status and position, and this princess is stronger than most of them.
She had just finished speaking.
Lin Yan glanced at her with a cold gaze and sneered, "You are a bunch of trash, and you dare to bark in front of me."
The woman in white battle clothes turned dark, and her eyes seemed to be able to spit fire.
How dare he?
I am the princess of the Qianwu royal family, what a noble identity!
No one had ever dared to talk to her like this! How could this ignorant thing dare to provoke her like this when she was in such a disaster?
"you……"
She was about to speak when she was interrupted by Lin Yan's voice. He looked away and looked at one of them and asked, "Are you the 'Red Eyebrow'?"
In this area, there are some extremely famous super-powerful people. They are notorious for their killings and murders. Once others see them, they will stay away from them.
"Flame Demon", "Heavenly Killer", "Red Eyebrow", "Blood Eviscerator" and the most famous killer, "God"!
Lin Yan said coldly: "Your strength is qualified to enter the top 1,000 of Qianwu Universe. I have always been kind and compassionate, so I will give you a chance and not bother with you."
"Go away!"
"It's only the eighth day. If you die here now, you will only be eliminated. If you really want to fight me, wait until you have enough points, and then come to me to die."
When he said this, everyone was shocked. What kind of provocation was this?
He didn't take the Red Eyebrows seriously at all.
Then they all looked at Chimei's reaction.
Chimei's eyes were filled with murderous intent, his aura became extremely dangerous, and arcs of electricity faintly lit up around his body.
He said in a deep voice, "Others call you 'God'. Today, I will tear you apart completely and let you know what a true God is!"
"You're such a weakling."
"It doesn't deserve such a title at all."
In an instant.
The surrounding sky and earth were filled with electric snakes, as if the power of heaven was mighty and the gods were angry. A bolt of lightning struck, and Chimei moved and rushed over quickly!
The war is about to begin!
