Chapter 1115: Heart and Battle
Su Xiao, Bubtni, and Amu left the battlefield and walked down the road. As they walked, Su Xiao began to make a plan of action.
First of all, he needed to understand what time frame they were in, and first of all, he needed to check the essence of the main mission.
[Main Mission: The Ant King's Heart.
Difficulty Level: Level 30.
Description: Get the Ant King's heart by any means necessary.
Addition: The Ant King has not yet been born, the approximate time of his birth is 10 days.
Lead time: 20 days.
Completion Reward: 3 Free True Stat Points, 3 Large Soul Crystals.
Task Failure Penalty: Instant Execution.]
After seeing the difficulty of the quest in the form of level 30, Su Xiao knew that the situation was not good. Just how strong the Ant King was was still unknown, but Su Xiao knew one thing for sure: in a one-on-one duel, he wasn't a match for him.
Because of this, Su Xiao was going to defeat him with the help of the strongest family. He has interacted with the Zoldick family before. The Zoldik family was very strong, and this he was able to learn from personal experience on his first visit to this world.
With Su Xiao's current strength, he would have no problem facing Zeno Zoldick or Silva Zoldick head-on. If the three strongest people from this family attacked him, Su Xiao would be able to kill at least one of them and escape, but if he decided to fight to the death, then the four of them would end up dead in the end.
When Zeno Zoldick and Silva Zoldick fought against the Spiders, they weren't serious at all. They showed only the part of their strength that their employer paid them to do, and the Dons didn't pay very much for their help.
But compared to his grandfather, father and son, the family's great-grandfather, Maha Zoldik, was on a completely different level altogether. This old man, who was only 1.4 meters tall, was on the level of Isaac Netero, the chairman of the Hunter Association.
Isaac Netero had once fought against Maha Zoldik, and although there was no clear winner among them in the end, one thing was certain: Maha Zoldik was very strong, at least stronger than even the current Su Xiao.
And since Su Xiao would have to fight against the Ant King, he needed to first understand exactly how big the gap between him and the Ant King was.
Chairman Isaac fought against the Ant King, but was ultimately defeated. Before his death, he was only able to injure the Ant King with the help of the "Poor Man's Rose", an advanced nuclear bomb, but even from the explosion of such a bomb at close range, the Ant King did not die.
Yes, Chairman Isaac wasn't as strong right now as he was in his prime, but the fact remained.
If he was at the peak of his powers, it would be hard to say who would have won in the end in that fight.
Maha, on the other hand, being a match for Isaac, was a good candidate to face the Ant King.
Once he fought one of these two people, Su Xiao would know if he could even do anything to the Ant King in a one-on-one battle.
Su Xiao only wanted to make sure that the Ant King didn't have too much power that he couldn't do anything against.
If he didn't have overwhelming power, Su Xiao would find a way to deal with him.
The Poor Man's Rose was able to send the Ant King to death's door. If Apollo's Wrath exploded near him, he would definitely be seriously injured.
Of course, there were a lot of things to consider when fighting the Ant King, but in these ten days, Su Xiao would definitely have time to prepare well.
The only difficulty was that he needed to get the Ant King's heart. As a rule, such missions in the form of obtaining a certain item had competitors, that is, other contractors.
And this time, there are a lot of contractors in this world. According to the contractor communication platform, there were a total of 206 contractors in this world right now.
After all, this was a semi-open world, with the Ant King Arch currently being played, the arch with the culmination of this world. Among these contractors, there were clearly some who had entered this world with the help of special keys.
Assuming the worst-case scenario of all contractors being assigned the same task, the scene is clearly going to be very busy.
While thinking about this, Su Xiao arrived at the Yorkshin airship station. The transportation system of this world was very convenient. Unlike the world of Naruto, where you had to move on your own two feet or on Bubtny, who often crashed into trees because he thought about "dog business", traveling in this world was one pleasure.
The airship station in this world was like an ordinary airport, except that ordinary weapons were not prohibited from being brought in. It was forbidden to transport only firearms, explosives, strong chemicals, and so on.
Su Xiao boarded the airship without much trouble. The outside of the airship was made of steel, while the inside was made of wood. This gave the interior of the airship a warm tone. The airship itself was about forty meters long and thirty meters wide. Its shape was a little bloated, but it allowed for a lot of free space.
I bought Su Xiao a relatively expensive ticket, so I got access to a private room with all the internal amenities.
On the airship, only ordinary people who did not possess any special powers boarded..
After realizing this, Su Xiao lay down on the bed and fell asleep. As soon as he had free time in the derivative world, he used it to recuperate, because no one could ever tell how long he would have to stay awake in the future, a day, three days, or a whole week.
The trip was a bit boring. While Su Xiao was sleeping, there was a knock on the door, and Su Xiao motioned for Bubtney to open the door.
There was a pretty girl standing outside the door who informed them that they were only an hour away from their destination.
An hour and a half later, Su Xiao was already sitting on the bus. The bus was traveling on a road between fields.
The scenery was beautiful, and the air was unusually clear.
— Hello, dear guests, welcome to the Hatsi sightseeing bus. I am honored to serve you today. Right now, our bus is heading to the territory of the Zoldik family, one of the most popular assassin clans. We'll stop right at the foot of Mount Kukuru, " said a girl guide with red curly hair, holding a small loudspeaker and a smile on her face.
On the way to the mountain, she began to tell passengers about local attractions and rumors about Mount Kukuru.
Yes, about the very same Mount Kukuru that belonged entirely to the Zoldik family.
Of course, tourists could only visit the outskirts of this mountain, while the Zoldik family itself lived on a mountain that ordinary tourists could not climb at all.
Although it looked strange, after all, the entire headquarters of a family that engaged in murder at such a high level was a tourist attraction, but thanks to this, this Zoldick family made a lot of money out of thin air without doing anything about it.
They didn't see anything wrong with it. As for the risks, this family could only be defeated with money, and no one in this family cared about such excursions.
Su Xiao was lying lazily on the back of the seat. As for Amu, he couldn't fit on the bus because of his size, so he was currently running after him.
At first, this scared the girl guide so much that she almost called the police, but this issue was eventually resolved.
The bus came to a slow stop as it approached the foot of a large mountain.
The Zoldik family lived somewhere on this mountain, but where exactly no one knew.
When the bus stopped, everyone turned their attention to the giant metal gate.
This giant gate was the first test of the Zoldick family. Anyone who could open them was granted the right to climb the mountain, whether for revenge or some kind of request.
The only problem was the design of this gate.
This gate wasn't exactly an ordinary one.
