What happened?
On the uppermost floor of the palace, in an area resembling an arena with no ceiling.
Luos, sitting on the ground, clutched his head, looking around with some confusion.
Just now, an invisible shockwave suddenly surged from afar.
Without even a chance to react, he was sent flying.
By the time he came back to his senses, he was already in his current state.
"Did I just pass out? No, it should have just been a mental attack on my brain, causing it to go blank for a few seconds..."
850296501
After briefly recalling what had just happened, Luos turned his head to look at the stairs leading down to the palace.
"All the sounds from outside have disappeared. Did that group of useless people all get wiped out without even lasting a moment?"
"Tsk, in the end, I still have to personally make a move."
"You're really confident, aren't you?"
"Even though your own performance was pretty bad, not much better than your subordinates."
Lin Que's voice suddenly came from behind, startling Luos, who was sitting on the ground.
He quickly stood up and turned to look at the highest point of the arena.
In the dark night sky, a figure was slowly walking towards him.
"He can even fly?"
Luos frowned, instantly reacting, "That's right, you're a Pure-blooded Dragon."
Although facing one of Hakoniwa's three strongest species alone, Luos did not feel panicked.
The reason was simple: he held a trump card no less powerful than his opponent's.
Grabbing the Gorgon pendant around his neck, he abruptly raised it, summoning the entity within.
"Come out..."
Boom—!
"You didn't summon Algol in advance; you waited until I was right in front of you to prepare."
Lin Que stepped on Luos's back, toying with the Gorgon pendant he had casually picked up.
"It truly lives up to the name of the one-in-a-million useless king; always capable of doing things that surprise me."
"I... I'm not useless..."
"Alright, alright, you're not useless, you're a sucker."
Lin Que half-squatted, reached out to pull the Gift Card from Luos's hand, then positioned his finger as if to flick his forehead.
"I'll gladly accept Perseus's assets."
Bang—!
[Group Member 'Sea King' defeated the Five-Digit Community 'Perseus', World Reputation increased by 10 points, rewarded 1,000,000 group points.]
Lin Que raised an eyebrow, "Only 10 points?"
It was a Five-Digit Community after all; this number was surprisingly low.
However, considering the overall scale of Hakoniwa and the point value equivalent to one World Reputation point in Hakoniwa, this number seemed quite reasonable.
He just wondered how much of those 10 World Reputation points was accounted for by gaining ownership of Algol's seal.
Thoughtfully glancing at the pendant in his hand, Lin Que temporarily put it away.
"It seems I still need to target Four-Digits."
"What four-digit number?"
White Yasha's voice rang out behind him: "Perseus just finished on his side, you're not going to cause trouble again, are you?"
"How could that be?"
Lin Que spread his hands, replying with an innocent expression: "I'm a good citizen, I won't make a move first."
"I hope you can stick to your word."
White Yasha looked deeply at Lin Que.
This time, she hadn't been keeping an eye on Lin Que, and Luos had indeed engaged in some irregular operations, which was why she had temporarily let it go.
Next time, it might not be the case.
"Oh, by the way, isn't it time for you to pay back the money?"
As if remembering something, White Yasha suddenly extended her small hand and gestured towards Lin Que.
"Before, out of consideration for our relationship, I agreed to lend you a Divine Core as a loan."
"Now that you have Boirxiusi's assets, it's time for you to pay back the money, isn't it?"
"Easy, easy. Once I sort out my income these next few days, I'll send someone to deliver it to you."
Lin Que made a gesture: "As agreed before, I'll pay back at double the normal purchase price of a Divine Core, guaranteed to help you boost a large amount of performance."
"It's good that you remember."
White Yasha thought for a moment, then picked up the unconscious Luos by Lin Que's feet.
"This guy is also from Olympus's side, so I'll take him with me first."
Lin Que waved his hand: "Suit yourself."
Anyway, he hadn't actually prepared to kill the other party.
Taking the items was pretty much enough.
If he had gone for the kill, not only would he offend Olympus, but White Yasha would also be left with a bad impression.
Luos's life wasn't that valuable.
"Leticia."
The vampire loli walked out of the shadows: "What is it, Master?"
"I'll leave this side for you to handle."
Lin Que gestured around: "Before the news gets out, quickly sort out all of Boirxiusi's assets."
Leticia nodded: "I understand."
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Lin Que patted Leticia's head, then directly transformed into a hands-off boss and left.
"I'm going back to sleep first~"
...
Sleeping was naturally impossible.
After leaving Boirxiusi's side, Lin Que looked at the Algol seal in his hand.
Since he had the seal, he had to go in and tease her first.
... .....
However, before Lin Que could enter the seal, the chat group's notification sound suddenly rang in his ear.
[Notification: Detected that the total integral of group members exceeds one million, the chat group's level has increased, unlocking a new function: Group Mall.]
The chat group unlocked a new function?
Lin Que's attention immediately fell on the chat group.
"Mall... sounds pretty good."
Just by looking at the unlock conditions and the function name, Lin Que could determine that it was a place that would consume a large amount of points.
For Lin Que, this was good news.
Currently, there were only a few ways to spend points in the chat group.
He didn't need to strengthen his physical fitness.
He got a 10% discount when traveling to other group members' worlds.
Learning new skills, unless he was too lazy to think, Lin Que basically didn't need it.
Strengthening items, no item was as useful as his body, the biggest function was to strengthen a set of special effects equipment.
In general, Lin Que currently had no channels to spend points.
Thanks to this, his points were accumulating more and more.
After acquiring ten World Points from Hakoniwa, it even reached a terrifying 1.13 million, unlocking a new function for the chat group by himself.
For Lin Que, having more places to spend money was not a bad thing.
He wasn't afraid of not having money, only of not having anywhere to spend it.
Curious about what the Group Mall would sell, Lin Que temporarily hung Algol's seal around his neck and opened the chat group to check.
