Summoning Players into My Game Chapter 731 - 375: Stunned (Part 3)
Previously on Summoning Players into My Game...
"No wonder," Suí Hǔn pondered briefly before declaring, "I must get in touch with the head of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall immediately. Go notify Yi Long at once. If we delay any longer, it'll be too late."
"Teacher, do you intend to alert the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall about this matter?" Tang Yuanchen seemed to catch on and voiced his worry, "What if the person from earlier discovers it..."
"Then let them find out." Suí Hǔn flicked his hand dismissively, "Hurry up and reach out to them."
In the midst of their talk, they paid no heed to Huang Jiu's presence. Though Huang Jiu recognized the enmity between the Holy Hall and the Insect Race, yet placed faith in them, it was an extraordinary rarity for Blue Star to birth a master rivaling Half-step Divine Fusion Realm prowess. Failing to rescue such a talent would truly be a grave loss.
Should Huang Jiu learn of it afterward, Suí Hǔn wouldn't hesitate to face her fury. After all, a powerhouse matching Half-step Divine Fusion Realm strength held immense worth, and escaping Blue Star—a mere breeding world—their potential soared boundlessly into the future.
"Yes!" Tang Yuanchen held back no further words and rushed off to contact Tang Yi Long.
In short order, via the Sky Dome Shelter's teleportation array, Suí Hǔn connected with Lin Qi, distant in Red Moon City.
"Greetings, Hall Master Lin. I'm Suí Hǔn, leader of Blue Star's Holy Hall." Suí Hǔn introduced himself while eyeing Lin Qi through the holographic projection, "My sudden call stems from a critical event. Word has reached me that your Martial Arts Hall's Half-step Divine Fusion Realm expert has drawn the attention of Hu Jin, overseer of Celestial River Domain City. They've enlisted a formidable Half-step Divine Fusion Realm powerhouse to seize them, and that hunter might already be en route. Urge your expert to conceal themselves without delay. Falling into that master's grasp would spell unthinkable doom."
"So the Celestial River Domain City overseer is finally striking?" Lin Qi showed mild astonishment at the news.
He had anticipated Hu Jin reaching out to Prison Dragon Star for troops, yet surprisingly, only a single Half-step Divine Fusion Realm hireling was dispatched. This twist caught him off guard.
"That's correct." Noting Lin Qi's calm demeanor, Suí Hǔn elaborated, "The assassin they hired goes by Huang Jiu, a variant from the Evil Demon Race boasting physical traits vastly superior to her kin. Even prior to Half-step Divine Fusion Realm, she clashed evenly with such foes. Now at that level, her might places her at the pinnacle, leaving typical Half-step Divine Fusion experts outmatched."
"A peak Half-step Divine Fusion Realm powerhouse, is it?" Lin Qi's curiosity deepened further.
He burned with eagerness to gauge the Heavenly Human Realm players' capabilities, his own included. Luo Wushang's prior king-level monster takedown hardly counted as a true bout, but this incoming elite Half-step Divine Fusion challenger offered the perfect chance to probe their limits.
"Hall Master Lin, don't take Huang Jiu lightly." Suí Hǔn explained with exasperation upon seeing Lin Qi's growing enthusiasm, "Though merely a Star Pirate, she's the offspring of the Red Demon Star's Star Lord among the Evil Demon Race. Her mastery of a demigod's supreme art is unparalleled. In combat, even Prison Dragon Star's top commander couldn't prevail."
While speaking, Suí Hǔn transmitted Huang Jiu's image and details straight to Lin Qi.
Across the stars, Half-step Divine Fusion Realm achievers were exceedingly scarce. Thus, he knew full well the unshakable arrogance such powerhouses carried toward their own might—especially from a faction devoid of ancient lineage birthing one. The reverence and self-assurance in that expert's abilities must run profoundly deep.
Yet he was compelled to underscore the peril to Lin Qi.
"My thanks for the warning. We'll deal with it right away." Lin Qi conveyed his appreciation before severing the link, leaving Suí Hǔn faced with a blank screen, his expression darkening.
Even across the display, Suí Hǔn discerned Lin Qi's clear thirst for battle against Huang Jiu, blissfully ignorant of the vast gulf before him.
At that moment, within Red Moon City's Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall,
Concluding the chat with Suí Hǔn, Lin Qi promptly issued a system task.
Emergency Team Mission: Intelligence confirms the Insect Race has engaged a Half-step Divine Fusion expert from the Evil Demon Race to shatter Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall's tranquility and order. Capture this Evil Demon foe and deliver them to the Red Moon City Martial Arts Hall. Reward: One blue-quality weapon.
As this urgent mission dropped, players throughout the game exploded into frenzy.
