Chapter 49 Only one year left until the opening of the secret realm...
"Do you think immortality necessarily means having superhuman abilities?"
The Ancient Realm Lord sneered, "The Bright Light Saint Lord is high and mighty; in his eyes, I'm probably just a Realm Lord with some luck!"
"If I hadn't revealed the news of the secret realm, who would have discovered the clues?"
"Hahahaha, when those realm lords heard that it was a secret realm, they knew that they had a high probability of gaining an unimaginable fortune, so they naturally did their best to keep it a secret. I heard that the Thousand-Dawn Realm Lord cleaned up dozens of subordinates at the universe level and domain lord level in one go that day."
"As for those useless members of the royal family..."
He paused for a moment, then said, "How can a flower grown in a greenhouse compare to a strong person like me who rose from the bottom in terms of perceptiveness?"
"You've surprised me a bit!"
An accident? An accident about what?
Perseus remained extremely vigilant and had reservations about the safety of the so-called "secret realm".
A realm lord whose lifespan has come to an end is terrifying!
At this moment, the Ancient Realm Lord was completely on par with the Ancient Emperors and Great Emperors of Shrouding the Heavens in his mind. No one knew what this powerful madman would do.
Of course, Perseus's vigilance seemed to have been in vain.
In the end, the Ancient Realm Lord did not do much, but simply gave out a string of numbers, which did not seem like a virtual universe number, but rather more like the ID of some kind of software.
"Dark Night Forum, I will post the exact coordinates of the dungeon in this room."
"Just competing against numerous realm lords, fighting to the death... Little guy, your talent is better than mine. I hope you won't become Xia Ye's Blazing Fire... Hahahahahaha..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Ancient Realm Lord transformed into a stream of light and disappeared into the night sky.
Perseus ignored him and turned to give instructions to the smart bracelet.
"Number 1?"
"Don't worry, Master!" a somewhat deep voice replied.
Soon, a screen of light appeared before Perseus's eyes.
"Retrieving relevant information... Dark Night..."
"Alarm! Alarm!"
"The Dark Night Forum is an unofficial forum that the Bright Light Empire has explicitly targeted. It is inaccessible from the Bright Light regional network... You are now being redirected to the Wind and Waves Universe website..."
"Welcome to the Dark Night—"
A bloody and dark image quickly popped up.
The skeleton, covered in flesh, grinned maliciously, its decaying face radiating a chilling murderous intent, seemingly mocking yet subtly mad.
The screen then jumps to the corresponding room number.
Suddenly, a torrent of data came crashing down like cannonballs, causing even the intelligent life form Number 1 to experience a momentary malfunction.
"That's such an unfriendly way to greet someone!"
Number 1 appeared beside Perseus, his eyes as cold as ice. After a long while, he finally looked up and let out a long breath.
"This appears to be an unofficial bounty page."
"Unofficial...bounty...shouldn't all of humanity's territory belong to mercenaries of the Space Mercenary Alliance?"
That's what they say, but Perseus knew this was the normal situation.
Light and darkness have always coexisted.
While the missions issued by the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance are more formal, bounty systems like the "Dark Night Forum" inherently carry a sense of contempt for intermediate-level civilizations.
They are hunters who roam the shadows, and fighters who defy the rules.
Of course, all of this struggle stems from one fundamental premise: never betray humanity!!!
"Let me take a look!"
Perseus reached out and quickly manipulated the interface, bringing up a portion of the page's information.
He read quickly, his gaze sweeping over the information, before finally managing a slight smirk and a disdainful shake of his head.
"Give them enough money and they'll even dare to lay a hand on a barbarian?"
"I looked at the missions. These assassination and treasure-hunting missions cover at most a few medium-level civilizations. This means that the forum owner is not very powerful. He is most likely a military commander, less likely a marquis, and the probability of him becoming a king is zero... As for the room that old man mentioned."
Long, slender fingers lightly tapped "Search" after a string of numbers.
In less than a second, a new tan-colored interface popped up.
"Countdown to the Secret Realm: July 19, 100th anniversary..."
At the very top is a huge countdown timer, occupying only 40% of the light screen.
Below, a series of exchanges continued uninterrupted, filled with a strong sense of hostility and hostility.
【Snake Man, I'm in Charge】: Another cannon fodder has arrived?
[Celestial Star God Lord]: Look carefully, the old man invited a realm lord with nine-star battle power!
[A prince who is not a member of the royal family]: There must be 20 people here already.
[White Fang]: I advise you all to withdraw as soon as possible, otherwise, quite a few realm lords will fall in my hands.
[Celestial Star God]: You bastard, if you keep talking, it's only been a hundred years. I'll have a go at you then, so don't run away in fear...
[White Teeth]: Afraid of you? ???
What followed was a pointless exchange of insults.
A group of realm lords, some flamboyant and others watching the show discreetly, had asterisks below their names that likely corresponded to their strength.
However, the fact that he was able to gather more than twenty realm lords together shows that the Ancient Realm Lord was playing a pretty big game.
And is he really about to perish?
Perseus exited the interface thoughtfully, his avatar quickly turning gray.
However, he did not leave the Dark Night Forum. Instead, he paused for a moment and posted a few barely noticeable messages on the bounty page.
This information was primarily intended for collecting biological materials from the surrounding major empires.
Perseus glanced at the page a few times while studying it, and there was some information on the Dark Night Forum about apothecaries buying biological materials.
Therefore, although his series of announcements were a bit messy and disorganized, they appeared quite ordinary when mixed in with other information.
"Master, it would be best to disguise the delivery address."
"The group has an external life-bearing planet."
"A cunning rabbit has three burrows. I considered this when I established the transport line. These inhabited planets are not under the names of me, Tuoer, or any other group member. The cosmic-level control of the planets are slaves that Tuoer ordered from other channels. Don't worry, there won't be any problems."
Perseus quickly completed the corresponding operation.
Because the collected biological materials are at the cosmic and domain lord levels, requiring no less than 1000 species at each level, he specifically increased the amount by 50% from the original estimate provided by the forum.
The relatively high reward dispelled many people's last concerns. A single mission could earn 15 Hunyuan, and soon even 'Dark Eclipse' level hunters at the Realm Lord level chose to accept the job.
Below was a chorus of curses.
These resource-gathering missions are low-risk and offer decent prices, making them highly sought-after on the forums.
Now that they've run out of supplies, these hunters who have long operated in the gray area have no choice but to take risks and choose certain "landmines" with higher danger coefficients, which may even involve immortality.
It would be better if it hadn't exploded.
If they fail, they will face certain death.
