Chapter 1183: 1385
Chapter 1385: Unfortunately, Killed Too Early
Lin Moyu asked about Yu Qingrou. In fact, Yu Qingrou was just a pretext; he was more interested in learning about the Starry Sky Fishmen Clan.
The Starry Sky Fishmen Clan, Starry Sky Celestial Spirit Clan, Starry Sky Demon God Clan, and Starry Sky Human Clan are known as the Four Origin Clans.
The Starry Sky Human Clan is essentially the Human Clan.
Lin Moyu was very curious about the other three Origin Clans and why they were called Origin Clans. What is the true meaning of an Origin Clan?
The great world holds too many secrets, constantly piquing his curiosity.
Lin Moyu believed that one day, he would unravel most of these secrets, and by then, he would undoubtedly stand at the pinnacle of the world.
Zhu Qiwu looked at the jade box in Lin Moyu's hand, which contained an exquisitely crafted small sword. "According to what you said, you saw Yu Qingrou in the images?"
"That's right," Lin Moyu confirmed to Zhu Qiwu.
Zhu Qiwu had met Yu Qingrou before and had a very deep impression of the princess of the Starry Sky Fishmen Clan.
Although the Starry Sky Fishmen Clan had a natural talent for space laws, the probability of this talent emerging was still extremely low.
Previously, there was Princess Rou, and now there is Yu Qingrou. The Starry Sky Fishmen Clan seems to have had a stroke of luck.
After listening to Lin Moyu's account, Zhu Qiwu also fell into deep thought.
However, Zhu Qiwu couldn't come up with an answer. "I'll ask around when I get back. You've made a great contribution this time, and I think someone will give you an answer."
Rewards for merit and punishment for faults have always been the way of the Human Clan, clear and distinct.
The warship returned to the Human Clan's territory, and the two of them teleported back to Fortress No. 8. From there, they transferred to Fortress No. 1.
Fortress No. 8 was heavily fortified, while Fortress No. 1 was much more relaxed.
Zhu Qiwu said, "Stay here for a few days and don't take on any other tasks for now."
"I understand," Lin Moyu naturally knew what Zhu Qiwu was going to do. He was going to upload the information about the Yellow Earth Desert to the Human Emperor Network to calculate Lin Moyu's reward.
After bidding farewell to Zhu Qiwu, Lin Moyu headed to the trading center.
The trading center was still bustling with people coming and going.
After many days, the counter at the trading center was still manned by the beautiful and graceful Yu Qing.
When Yu Qing saw Lin Moyu, her eyes lit up. "Mr. Lin, you're here. I'll notify Miss Zhu right away."
Lin Moyu nodded, "Thank you."
Soon, Yu Qing received a reply from Zhu, "Miss Zhu is already waiting for you in the back, at the usual spot."
"Thank you!"
Lin Moyu, familiar with the place, headed to the backyard. On the way, a staff member came to guide him.
Actually, there was no need for this; Lin Moyu was an old acquaintance. But rules were rules, and they had to be followed.
In the familiar pavilion, Lin Moyu met Zhu, whom he hadn't seen for many days.
Zhu was as beautiful as ever, still brewing ice tea from the Ice Clan, bringing a touch of chill to the already cool pavilion.
Zhu smiled brightly, "Captain, where have you been all this time?"
Lin Moyu smiled, "I went on a special mission."
"This mission took quite a while," Zhu said as she poured tea for Lin Moyu, her voice carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.
Lin Moyu took a sip of the tea, the cold tea bringing a long-lost coolness to his throat, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
First, he was in the Yellow Earth Desert, where nine fireballs roasted the land day and night.
Although he wasn't afraid of the heat, anyone would prefer a comfortable environment.
Then, he was in the Nether Swamp, where the cold was enough to freeze a true deity to death.
For over a year, Lin Moyu hadn't had a sip of tea or a bite of good food.
Sometimes, Lin Moyu couldn't help but sigh; perhaps this was the life of a cultivator.
Zhu chuckled, "Captain, was the environment for this mission very harsh?"
"It wasn't great, and it was very dangerous. I almost didn't make it back," Lin Moyu said half-jokingly.
Zhu's eyes narrowed slightly in surprise, "It was that dangerous?" She knew Lin Moyu's strength. If even he almost didn't make it back, the mission's difficulty must have been beyond imagination.
However, she didn't press further. Matters involving personal privacy were not something she would ask about unless Lin Moyu brought them up himself.
Zhu said, "Captain, the matter you asked me to look into has some news. But since you were away, I couldn't contact you."
Lin Moyu had previously asked Zhu to look into the whereabouts of the top 10 enemies on the Human Clan's bounty list. Thanks to Zhu's efforts, there was finally some news.
Zhu said, "I didn't know if you wanted information from the Vermilion Bird Starfield's bounty list or the Human Clan's bounty list, so I looked into both."
Lin Moyu sipped his tea, signaling Zhu to continue.
When he had asked Zhu to look into the information, he had been somewhat hopeful.
Zhu's family had considerable influence and deep connections with the Human Clan's military, so he thought he might get some information.
Zhu said, "From the Vermilion Bird Starfield's bounty list, I found that only two of the top 10 are currently in the Vermilion Bird battlefield."
"The first is ranked tenth, named Yin Huo, a demon from the Abyssal lineage, at the second rank of God King. He was last seen six months ago in area 8-33."
"The second is ranked sixth, named Xuan Jin God King, from the Golden Eagle Clan, at the third rank of God King. He was last seen three months ago in area 8-68."
The information was a bit outdated, one from six months ago and the other from three months ago.
Lin Moyu knew Zhu had done her best. After all, he had been away for the past year.
Moreover, it was clear that Zhu had been continuously updating the information, not just stopping after finding it.
Lin Moyu sincerely said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Zhu's eyes curved into crescent moons, her smile blooming, "Captain, you're too kind. Whether they are still there or not is uncertain."
"Then there's the top 10 from the Human Clan's bounty list. The tenth is the Netherfire God King, a demon at the ninth rank of God King, last seen a month ago in area 9-32."
"Ranked eighth is the Breaking Light God King, from the Golden Eagle Clan, at the minor deity level, last seen three months ago in area 10-22."
"The last one is ranked third, the Nightmare God Sovereign, a demon at the God Sovereign level. His exact rank is unknown. He was last seen a year ago in area 8, then disappeared without a trace."
"But according to the latest information, the Nightmare God Sovereign hasn't left the Vermilion Bird battlefield."
"Captain, you wouldn't be thinking of going after the Nightmare God Sovereign, would you?"
Zhu joked with Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu was a true deity, no matter how strong he was, he was still a true deity.
Even if he could fight across realms and defeat opponents at the sixth, seventh, or eighth rank of God King, he couldn't possibly defeat a God Sovereign.
Zhu's eyes narrowed with laughter, eager to see Lin Moyu's surprised expression.
But unfortunately, Lin Moyu remained expressionless, unusually calm.
Only Lin Moyu knew his own thoughts.
"The Nightmare God Sovereign is ranked third on the Human Clan's bounty list. He must have caused significant harm to the Human Clan."
"Unfortunately, he's no longer on the Vermilion Bird bounty list. Killing him won't count as completing the task."
"But I can keep his corpse. When my authority level increases to level five, and the Vermilion Bird bounty list becomes the entire starfield bounty list, I can use his head to complete the task."
The task clearly stated that he needed to kill someone from the top 10 of the Vermilion Bird Starfield bounty list.
This task had an element of luck. If he could find the targets, it would be easy to complete.
If he couldn't find them, it could take a long time, even decades or centuries.
For now, Lin Moyu could only go with the flow.
Zhu waited for a while, seeing that Lin Moyu still had no reaction, and rested her chin on her hands, saying helplessly, "Captain, you really have no sense of humor. The latest information will be sent in three days. Don't be out of contact this time."
