Chapter 211: Chapter 181: Solo God_1

The members of the Illuminati around were stunned for a moment but quickly reacted, rushing towards the range of the teleportation light shadow.

"Hurry, block them! Don’t let them enter the teleportation range!"

For the support team, the leading expert’s reaction was also quite swift. Upon seeing the situation, he immediately issued an order.

The group of over twenty people switched from defense to offense, rushing towards the nearest Illuminati members to prevent them from entering the range of the light circle.

However, the range of the town-return scroll was too large. Also, with a large number of magical beasts around that had yet to disperse, it was hard to dodge the beasts and prevent the opponents’ movement simultaneously.

Lastly, only about ten people barely managed to block three of them. The rest all managed to enter the teleportation range in time and were led away by Gemini.

After Mu You killed the fire giant, he remained among the magma clusters and did not continue to act.

He was able to kill the Fire Giant because he had taken the fire resistance potion in advance, allowing him to be entirely immune to the Fire Giant’s damage. Also, as soon as he entered the Fire Giant’s mouth, he immediately switched to the Vampire skin.

The ’Giant Killer’ has five times the damage, in addition to the Vampire Claws’ four times damage to summoned creatures. The Vampire skin is specifically designed for giant-themed summoned creatures. Every slash resulted in ominous damage twenty times the norm. He killed the Fire Giant in just a few swings.

Right after that, Mu You switched back to the Mysterious Man skin, just before the Fire Giant disappeared.

At this point, even though Gemini activated the town-return scroll, Mu You did not attempt to stop him.

One reason was that the town-return scroll made Gemini invincible after activation. He couldn’t be influenced by any factors interfering with the upcoming teleportation.

On the other hand, Mu You couldn’t intervene as any action would reveal that he’s not one of the Godlike Players from the resulting damage. This would be detrimental to his upcoming actions.

The two-second duration passed in a blink of an eye, and soon, most members of the Illuminati disappeared from the base along with Gemini.

In the ensuing chaos, the others captured three people, battered them until they passed out, and tied them up tightly. These were then handed over to specialists for custody.

Regarding all this, Mu You observed from the sidelines without either assisting them or obstructing their actions. He was currently portraying an expert passerby who saw the crisis here and came over to lend a hand. The remaining matters should be sorted out by themselves.

After driving away the archenemy, the beast horde mysteriously dispersed. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief from the resolved crisis, and then, with respectful yet doubtful gazes, looked over at Mu You, hesitant about whether or not to approach him.

Mu couldn’t be bothered by their thoughts. Once the battle was over, she was the first to rush over to Mu You. After carefully examining the summoned creature beside her and confirming that it was the Netherworld Demon Child, she whispered in a voice inaudible to others, "Excuse me, are you Aries?"

"It’s me." Mu You slightly nodded, pulling off a bit of his glove and secretly showing her the Aries Ring.

"It really is you! Oh, I’m Sagittarius!"

Sagittarius breathed a sigh of relief and promptly revealed her ring.

The ring was the only, and the best, method to prove one’s membership of the Secret Technique Association.

"You were right. The Illuminati was indeed involved in this incident. Those who ambushed us just now must be Illuminati members, and the leader is definitely Gemini!"

"Did you encounter Taurus?" Mu You asked.

"No."

Sagittarius immediately responded, "There’s no one suspected to be Taurus yet."

"I see..."

Mu You nodded. If Taurus had come, there would’ve been a great chance to annihilate everyone, and there was no reason for him not to appear.

Thinking about it, Taurus was a person who pushes doors; his door was clearly meant to provide an escape route for the members of the Illuminati.

If he came to the Star Spirit World, that door could no longer be opened. If their plan failed, they would not even have an escape route.

While giving it some thought, an idea popped up in Mu You’s mind: considering the current situation, Gemini and his men might return to Earth via Taurus’s door in a few days.

Since he knew both the location and opening time of that door, it was possible to intercept Gemini before he enters through the ’door’!

The Ten Commandments was backed by the Wizard Association, and the Wizard Association has always been an enemy of the Secret Technique Association. Both Taurus and Gemini knew this fact well, yet they still chose to cooperate with the Ten Commandments.

No matter the purpose, their actions were already betraying the Secret Technique Association.

Mu You no longer intended to let the two of them remain within the Association. As such, he must devise a way to retrieve their secret technique crystals...

While Mu You was secretly contemplating his plan, the three leading experts from afar came over after a brief discussion.

"Thank you, sir, for your timely assistance!"

The expert from the Ice Emperor among the three thanked him first, and then cautiously asked, "Um, mighty one, could you tell us which guild sent you over to assist, and could you perhaps provide us with your name?"

The thing that bothered the trio the most was that they got saved, yet they didn’t even have a clue of their savior’s identity.

"Director Wang, don’t worry. This gentleman over here is a Godlike Player I know. He doesn’t belong to any guild. As soon as he found out what was happening here, he rushed over to help," Sagittarius assured.

Sagittarius felt she had to step in. Aries had previously openly declared himself a solo player during the meeting, whether it was true or not, it indicated that he didn’t want to reveal his identity.

Therefore, as a dual member of the Ice Emperor’s organization and the secret technique association, it was only right for her to stand out and mediate between the two sides at this time.

"Oh?"

The three looked at Sagittarius in surprise upon hearing this.

Being a solo player without joining a guild? They never expected to find such a powerful godlike player among the solo players!

The Ice Emperor’s expert pulling the strings, known as ’Director Wang’, took a close look at Sagittarius at this moment.

He was familiar with her. She was a rising star promoted by the guild recently.

There were countless talented newcomers in the Ice Emperor organization, and the competition was quite fierce, but she managed to evolve purely based on her own abilities. Thus, she quickly distinguished herself from the other newcomers and earned her recent promotion.

The upper ranks of the Ice Emperor held meetings to discuss the origin of Sagittarius’s Evolution Elixir, but they couldn’t deduce a conclusion in the end.

Now that they found out Sagittarius knew a solo godlike player, this mystery was immediately cleared up: it’s indeed not difficult to obtain an Evolution Elixir with the support of a godlike player.

Upon realizing this, Director Wang of the Ice Emperor privately rejoiced, as solo godlike players not affiliated with any guilds are rare nowadays. With this connection, they might be able to recruit this godlike player to their Ice Emperor’s camp in the future!

"Great player, what about your attire then?"

At this time, the leader of the anomaly bureau looked at Mu You’s black-robed attire and hesitated for a moment before asking.

The others perked up their ears at his words, including Sagittarius.

This was their biggest question. When they saw a man in a black robe turn on those people just now, they wondered if this could be a godlike player who had been undercover in the Ten Commandments for years? Otherwise, why would he appear in the attire of a black-robed person from the Ten Commandments?

"Don’t be surprised, this is the attire of a black-robed man I just killed. I took his skin. He had a temporary buff that could control the Marsh Monster, so I just came over in this skin," explained Mu You.

"So, so that’s why..."

The three were all taken aback, ’just killed a man in black’ - he spoke so lightly of this, but they knew that the black-robed man who died was Rode, a top-tier level-19 player!

Besides, the concepts of ’killing’ and ’killed’ are two different things.

In the Star Spirit World where resurrection is possible, occasionally killing someone isn’t hard, the real challenge is to thoroughly kill someone!

It requires more than just matching skills, but a level of power that is superior to the opponent’s. Besides killing the opponent, it also requires the ability to prevent them from fleeing at any time.

If his power level surpasses Rode’s, then how high a level could this godlike player be?

The realization made the trio more respectful. This was a power player comparable to the Shadowless Deity!

Sagittarius was equally shocked, but she had anticipated this outcome because Aries had mentioned in the meeting that he was dealing with an enemy. It now appeared that the enemy was Rode from the Ten Commandments.

So, Sagittarius was slightly surprised but not overly astonished. Because of this, she was the first to pick up on a keyword in Mu You’s explanation: "Wait a minute, did you just say... skin?"

The other three were taken aback but quickly realized what she meant.

Yes, the godlike player just mentioned that after killing the black-robed man, he ’acquired his skin’?

Their attention had been focused on the godlike player’s level just now, so they didn’t take note of this detail. But thinking about it now, it seemed strange: isn’t the ’skin’ something only attainable after killing an indigenous being from the Star Spirit World?

Could it be that...

The trio quickly thought of a possibility, but found it hard to believe.

Mu You nodded straight away: "You’re right, members of the Ten Commandments are not players from Earth, but wizards from the Star Spirit World."

There was no need to hide this. The earlier the players on Earth were informed and identified their allies and enemies, the better.

"What?"

The trio was shocked to hear Mu You’s admission. Even among the crowd at the back, those with good hearing caught this sentence and there was an uproar.

The Ten Commandments was a force composed of indigenous wizards from the Star Spirit World!

In other words, this organization was actually an undercover operation dispatched by the Wizard Association to investigate and stir up trouble on Earth!

That explained a lot. No wonder this organization was so elusive, no one found out where their main base is till now. They turned out to be people from a different world. Each time they came to Earth, they would have to pass through a door, so naturally, they couldn’t stay for long.

The trio glanced at each other, wishing they could return immediately and inform their headquarters about this.

However, at the moment, they have even more critical tasks to perform.
