Death Notice

Book 1: Chapter 17: Mafa’s Investment

You have already felt the rejection of the Shattered Starry Sky toward you? Mafa did not conceal the astonishment on his face at all, his gaze was sparkling as he looked at Qin Lun: Are you able to verify it?

Yes, it corresponds with the rejection phenomenon talked about in the academy. Qin Lun said with a smile, Originally, I wanted to just quietly leave, but, since Ive been receiving your care during this half month, before I leave Moonlight Forest, I thought I ought to notify you first.

Although preparatory apostles like Qin Lun were considered as members of Moonlight Forest, the drifting city didnt try to restrict their freedom. That was so that they could dispel the apprehensions the apostles felt regarding their safety after entering another world. In any case, the time flow of Shattered Starry Sky and the other worlds was different. Under normal circmstances, after apostles went through a world mission, only several hours would have passed in Shattered Starry Sky, and it didnt affect the route of the drifting city at all.[1]

You made the right decision. Mafas gaze flickered. There were some hesitation in his expression, but he very speedily clenched his teeth, looking as if he too has made an important choice, Qin Lun, please wait a moment, Ill be back very quickly!

Mafa hurriedly rushed out of the hall, leaving Qin Lun behind inside the internal affair halls general headquarters.

Qin Lun let out a knowing smile and turned to look at internal affairs tower that situated at the east of the forest, the hall was arranged simply, the surrounding walls were full of glistening emerald green plant vines crawling over them. Most of the items were wooden, with very few bright and beautiful metal household utensils among them. However, these items, for the most part, were all delicately carved and filled with an artistic aura, it really fitted the elegant style of the Elf Race.

Mafa came back very quickly. When he returned, there was an extra package in his hands. His expression seemed somewhat serious as he handed it over to Qin Lun.

When it comes to the Moonlight Forests assistance toward apostles, we tend to follow an equal exchange principle. This is also an unshakeable law within all of Shattered Starry Skys intelligent races. As an official of Moonlight Forests internal affairs, I cannot violate the drifting citys rules and allow for the city to provide any extra assistance for you. However, with my identity as your friend, I will present my possession to you!

Qin Luns eyes flashed, before he straightforwardly took hold of the bundle, a smile showing on his face, I still require a vehicle.

It is already parked outside the forest! Mafa understood tactfully understood his intentions as he spoke with a smile.

Elder Mafa, are you really that optimistic about this preparatory apostles potential? Even if he already possesses a soul imprint, the probability of him passing his first otherworldly mission still does not exceed 30%. After Qin Lun stepped out of the door, one of the elf guards approached Mafa Moglia and quietly asked.

He has only been in Shattered Starry Sky for little more than half a month and has already received an otherworld mission. Do you know what that signifies? Mafa gaze was tranquil as he answered his own question, This signifies that as long as he develops smoothly, in just a few short years, he will be able to reach a height that we wouldnt even be able to imagine. Compared to those apostles that had only received their missions after half a year, his maturation speed is more than 10 times faster

Arriving at the forests exit, Qin Lun really saw a brand new four-wheeled motorcycle parked at the plant corridor road ahead. This vehicle was black all over, making it very convenient to hide. Although the elves dont really like using advanced technology in the drifting city, this vehicle was quite high tech, it was even equipped with a topography navigation system that was used in the Scarlet Gobi.

Perhaps in consideration that some preparatory apostles might not necessarily know how to drive a motorcycle, the vehicle also came with an auto-pilot system. Qin Lun threw the package that Mafa gave him into the vehicle and cheerfully sat inside it. He turned on the automatic navigation and following the bottom entrance of the drifting city, entered the Scarlet Gobi in an instant.

After he turned it into autopilot mode, Qin Lun unwrapped the bundle and his eyes immediately brightened. Within the bundle was a tiny crossbow that was greenish-blue and shiny, somewhat resembling the family heirloom that Mafa had. Except, the family heirloom of Mafas was a version which used crossbow arrows, whereas this weapon did not carry any with it.

Qin Lun carefully inspected it and discovered that this crossbow used wind arrows. Under the crossbow was a hair trigger, there wasnt any bowstring with it, a bird-wing like shape made up the circular sector of the bow with a curved crack in the front segment. A small block of law crystal was inserted in the back of the crossbow. When someone held the trigger, the crack in the curves would spout out a crescent moon-shaped wind blade.

The crossbow was very light. Qin Lun shot several numbers of wind blade on a large rock by the roadside and discovered that the power was pretty good. Every wind blade left a deep pit in the rock. The surface of the crossbow would had greenish-blue rays of light flitting across it from time to time, like it had a soul of its own.

Qin Lun slightly lamented, when hed first touched Mafas family heirloom, hed the feeling that this was a spiritual equipment. Now, looking at the crossbow that had been given to him, he became even more certain of his guess from before.

Beside the crossbow, there was also Mafas letter, with three tree seeds the sizes of walnuts as well as a thumb-sized crystal bottle. Inside the crystal bottle was a dark green thick liquid. Opening the bottle, a rich vegetation scent assailed his nostrils and his spirit couldnt help but rise, his whole body was brimming with a certain type of life energy.

Mafas letter had stated the name of the crossbow as Wind Spirit Crossbow, and the dark green liquid was World Trees Flower Nectar. It was an extremely valuable water of life, capable of supplying an organism with rich vitality and greatly increasing ones immunity and recovery abilities. It has a very good healing effect toward any type of disease or injury.

The other three tree seeds, were actually a type of tree vine seed, so as long as Qin Lun smeared some of his blood on them they would be able to receive his orders.

If he ever met a danger that he couldnt withstand, he could throw these seeds on the ground and activate them with his thoughts. A three meters tall treant would then come out to help its master stop the enemy. However, this type of treant had roots that reached under the ground and was not mobile. Moreover, the energy inside the tree seeds would only be enough to allow it to move for roughly an hour. And because of that, it could only be considered as a type of inferior cannon fodder.

These three types of items, Wind Spirit Crossbow was a type of spiritual equipment, while the World Trees Flower Nectar and the tree vine seeds were all special treasures that contained World Law. They were all capable of going through space-time teleportation and being brought into another world by the apostles. However, not every world was capable of using the three things, it needs the otherworld to also have a World Law that was in accordance with the treasure.

Even if thats the case, to Qin Lun, who was presently just a preparatory apostle, the favor that Mafa had given him was extremely heavy. It would indeed be a little difficult for him to repay this in the future.

Driving the vehicle, after Qin Lun had departed from Moonlight Forest for about half an hour, he then began to drive toward one of the cliffs of the Gobi. After moving underneath the rock cliff, he hid the vehicle in the shadow, and once again moved on foot towards the rock cliff standing opposite him.

This kind of vehicle was too conspicuous, although it was hidden well, it was hard to say that someone wouldnt be able to find it. If someone realizes that this was a location for an apostle who entered another world and who has not returned yet, they might decide to set up an ambush in the surroundings of the vehicle, which would be quite troublesome. Placing it on the hilltop of the opposite cliff would allow him to not be caught unprepared by someone, and he could even occupy the high ground and take a look at the situation surrounding the vehicle.

Reaching the top, Qin Lun sat crossed leg and placed the crossbow and the three seeds into his storage space. He cleared his mind of any stray thoughts and quietly waited for the next space-time rejection of the Shattered Starry Sky.

Under scorching sun of the Scarlet Gobi overheard, and sitting on a steep cliff, a fair-looking youth sat crossed leg with his eyes closed to rest. Beads of sweat the size of a pea were rolling down from his forehead, but he still wore a pleased smile on his face, as if it wasnt hot at all.

Suddenly, a strand of electric light flashed and without warning a space-time teleportation gate the size of a person appeared in front of the youth. Like an oval-shaped azure iris, it swallowed the youth down. After that, like a zipper, it pulled up on the space-time teleportation gate and disappeared from the cliff without leaving a trace. Faintly conjuring a small whirlwind where he had been, thoroughly obliterating all traces of the youths presence.
