Chapter 854: Luo Feng’s Show
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
As the emperor friends of his searched for Purple Clock on Yan Ji continent, Luo Feng began his trip back from the camp to the continent.
Several days later.
“Universe travel complete.”
A space ripple occurred at the travel point closest to the main continent and a black disc ship appeared.
Within the ship.
Luo Feng sat at the control room and frowned, “We have so many emperors in the human camp, yet no one has found him.”
“Luo Feng, when Purple Clock released your information before, he definitely guessed that you’d come looking for him. Hence, it’s normal that he’s hidden himself. Finding him won’t be easy.” A child head floated in the control room.
“There’s no point waking up early if there’s no benefit.”
Luo Feng laughed, “I only got my emperor friends to help keep a lookout. They would at most look around, and there are only so few of them. How vast is the main continent? Back then, when I first came here, I didn’t even meet another emperor for an extremely long time. For these emperors to find Purple Clock…it’s hard enough. Without any rewards, they wouldn’t even order their official underlings to help look. And even if they did so, the officials would only do the bare minimum, who would actually waste their energy.”
“Luo Feng, you want to give a bounty?” Babata’s eyes gleamed with excitement.
“Right, bounty!”
Luo Feng’s eyes gleamed, “I’ve long seen through this. Regardless if it’s us or the other races, warriors all own treasures and no one would risk their lives needlessly. For the strong to have treasures is normal, and no one else would risk the danger of fighting for that treasure. The weak having treasure is completely different, many of them would come to snatch it away! I was very low profile in the past, and no one knew I had treasure. Hence, no one ever found trouble with me. However, after the sacrificial tower…with Purple Clock publicly announcing, I have no way to stay low profile anymore. Since that’s so, then I have to display enough strength to scare off the others!”
“The moment I make my move, it has to completely shock and scare off all of the other warriors!” Luo feng muttered, “Only that would be worth it!”
“That’s my aim for this time!”
“To let them know the consequences of offending me!”
******
That day, he sent out bounties to the countless warriors in the human camp on Yan Ji main continent. They were all shocked, because…it wasn’t a private offering, but rather a public bounty sent through the army system to all allies on Yan Ji main continent!
And Luo Feng had already transferred the reward to the army system account.
Fifty million mixed elements!
This bounty simply required one to just discover the location of Purple Clock. Once the coordinates are confirmed, that person would receive fifty million!
“Madness!”
“This human Yang sure is mad. He’s been hiding in the camp for so long, but the moment he appears, he puts a huge bounty of Purple Clock. Fifty million, we officials usually at most only have ten million in total. It takes countless years to even get that amount, and now all we have to do is discover this other emperor’s location and we’d get such a huge sum.”
“Madness.”
“Fifty million!!!”
“This Yang sure is wealthy!”
“Haha…this is getting interesting. All the other race warriors are watching him, and he still dares to put such a bounty on Purple clock. Looks like he must be prepared, and the battle will be interesting.”
“Who is Purple Clock?”
“Yang is placing a bounty on Purple Clock. Looks like this Purple Clock must have been the one that revealed information about him.”
…
The entire Yan Ji continent was in an uproar. There were afterall very few emperors, and most of them were officials and normal undyings. To them, the fifty million mixed elements was a huge sum, which was enough to make all of them go crazy. They wouldn’t dare go fight with the other race emperors, but they still dared to occasionally eavesdrop and search about.
The hunt for Purple Clock emperor had started!
Countless undyings from the human camp were madly searching about. Just like when the other race warriors were searching for Yang before, now it was the other way around. However, the human camp’s search was much crazier.
This was afterall a public bounty!
However…
One day, two days, half a month, one month…
There was no news of Purple Clock.
“What’s up with him?” Luo Feng had almost reached Yan Ji main continent in his ship. He frowned and muttered in the control room, “Not right, he let out news to force my hand, and he should be wanting me to reveal myself. Now that I’ve released a public bounty, he should have reacted. And the news of my bounty is huge, it should have reached him. He should know that I’m looking for him…”
“But he’s vanished?”
“Did he leave the main continent?” Luo Feng shook his head. No, for Purple Clock to force him to reveal himself, it shouldn’t be that simple.
“Luo Feng, I have a feeling that he’s hiding to observe what happens, he will show himself sooner or later.” Babata said. “According to the battles from the tower, he’s extremely scheming. Unless there’s no hope, he would never give up. Even against the Emperor limit Gold Cang, he still dared to attack! Against you…he would definitely not be scared away.”
“Hm.” Luo Feng nodded.
******
Automaton camp’s virtual world, within an iron skyscraper, on a particular level’s hall.
Purple Clock sat casually eating food. Suddenly the door opened and two warriors entered. One of them was completely covered in fur with a single red eye, almost like an upright beast, and he gave off a wild energy. The other was a tall and skinny warrior, over 8m tall in a silver robe and black mask. His mask had peculiar engravings.
“Purple Clock, you sure are relaxed, enjoying delicacies in the virtual world. Don’t you know that countless undyings form the human camp are madly searching for you on the main continent?” The tall and skinny man had a piercing voice as he said.
“The bounty on your head is fifty million. This is akin to our automaton camp’s one hundred million indigo gems. This is no small sum.” The beast spoke, as his voice echoed with growls of a beast.
“Blood Beast emperor! Heavy Arrow emperor!”
He looked up and revealed a smile, “Don’t I have you two? Two emperor limits here, who would I fear on the main continent?”
“Hahaha…”The beast immediately let out a roaring laughter. “Purple Clock, you are right. With us two, within the entire Yan Ji continent, none of the emperors are a threat at all!”
“Haha…” The tall masked man laughed lightly, his laughter was filled with confidence.
Purple Clock continued, “As for the fifty million bounty on me, it can only mean one thing…this human Yang is extremely wealthy. As long as we kill him, haha, I believe the rewards will definitely surprise you two.”
“Hm.” Both emperors nodded.
Blood Beast emperor, Heavy Arrow emperor.
The both of them were specially invited by Purple Clock. They were both emperor limits in Star tower. There were hardly any emperor limits on Yan ji continent. Only the most dangerous region of the area, Star tower, had such warriors.
They were both no weaker than Gold Cang.
This time, Purple Clock…had specially paid both five billion indigo gems along with 1/3 of the spoils to get them to assist him.
They could get 1/3 of the human Yang’s wealth!
Blood Beast and Heavy Arrow would even get five billion upfront. Even if they knew that Yang wasn’t one to mess with, they both still agreed.
“Shouldn’t be messed with? It’s because of that that you invited two emperor limits.”
“Purple Clock is indeed generous. Looks like that human’s wealth must be shocking too, he truly got the treasure from the sacrificial tower. Even 1/3 for us each would be a huge sum. This will be huge.”
“Hm, a high emperor, even with his trump cards and warrior friends. Who would we have to fear?”
Both emperors had conversed secretly when they were invited, finally they both accepted.
…
Purple Clock, Blood Beast and Heavy Arrow sat around the dining table and chatted while enjoying delicacies.
“Purple Clock, that human has placed such a huge bounty on you, when will you show yourself?” Heavy Arrow said softly.
“I have to first let him think that I’m weak.” He smiled. “Let him think I’m afraid…haha. I’ll first hide outside the continent, they have no way to find me. However, it’s not long before I’ll show myself.”
“I’ll suddenly appear and purposely let myself be discovered by the human camp.”
“Luring him into the trap.”
His eyes gleamed with ferocity, “Then I’ll get you two to help. Two emperor limits working together should be enough to crush him with overwhelming strength! The moment we make a move, we will completely leave him with no chance.”
“Haha, thrilling. I respect your style.” Blood Beast laughed loudly, his voice booming about, “Right, we can completely overwhelm him. I hate the long tiring fights, those are too troublesome. It’s better to completely squash the enemy.”
“Hm.” Heavy Arrow nodded.
“You two should prepare outside the continent.” Purple clock laughed. “The moment he enters my trap, I will immediately inform you two and you should teleport immediately.”
“Relax.” Blood Beast said.
“We’ll both head to the space outside Yan Ji continent to await your call.” Heavy Arrow said.
Purple Clock smiled and toasted, “I won’t make you two wait long. Come, let us toast to acquiring the sacrificial tower treasure.”
“Come, to the treasure.” Blood Beast lifted his glass.
“To the dead human.” Heavy Arrow emperor lifted his glass.
The glasses clinked.
