Hell's Handbook-Chapter 350
Chapter 350
Xiang Nan did not spend too long speaking to Zhou Xinyu. They both left with worried looks on their faces. It had been hard enough to survive the Challenges, and now, they had to go from just surviving to becoming a god. That made everything so much harder. But Su Jin had faith in their abilities. When humans were determined to survive, they would suddenly display immense strength.
Now that Zhou Xinyu was part of Xiang Nans team and could learn from him, Su Jin was certain that she would progress much faster, as long as she didnt die, that is.
Su Jin was about to leave Hells Bar when yet another waiter stood in his way. The waiter had another letter for him, which stunned Su Jin. Was having a pen pal a new trend or something?
But he was even more stunned when he pulled the letter out. Never mind the content the sender alone was enough for his eyes to widen in surprise. The sender was the Dragon King, Natasha.
Natasha was ranked #3 among owners, and her capabilities made her way more powerful than Su Jin. She was a true expert in the game. According to the Mad Hatter, she was only half a step away from becoming a god. Or perhaps she wasnt even half a step away. Only a thin paper window screen stood in her way, and once she could slash through it, she would become a god.
Theres something I need to talk with you face to face? Su Jin was very puzzled. Besides running into her on Shen Wus planet, he had no other dealings with her. Why was she asking to see him?
A stone came with the letter, and the letter said that Su Jin just had to crush the stone and she would know that he had read her letter and to wait for her in Hells Bar.
Su Jin hesitated for a while, but eventually decided to hear what Natasha wanted to say. She was ranked #3 after all. She wouldnt want to talk to him about some trivial matter, would she?
After he crushed the stone, a beam of light shot out and disappeared into the distance. Su Jin sat down at the bar counter and decided to order a drink since he had nothing else to do. It didnt take long for someone to approach him.
Hello, are you Mr. Su Jin? asked the person politely as he stood next to Su Jin.
Su Jin looked up to see a Caucasian man in his thirties with a warm smile on his face. He looked like a butler or something.
Thats right. You work for Natasha? asked Su Jin after nodding.
Yes. Miss Natasha has asked me to lead you to her table. He smiled and nodded, then led the way.
Su Jin followed behind him and noticed that this man was actually walking at the same speed as himself. If he went faster, the man would walk faster. If he went slower, the man would go slower. This man was constantly adjusting his pace to match his.
Before Su Jin could make any further observations, they came to a table. Su Jins eyes trembled and his pupils constricted immediately when he saw who else was at the table, only because the other person at the table was someone Su Jin knew Shen Wu!
Shen Wu gave Su Jin a fake smile, while Su Jin kept his eye on Shen Wu as he said in a frosty voice, Whats going on? Is this a trap?
Hoho, Mr. Su, you dont have to panic. Were in Hells Bar, so we cant do anything to you regardless of how powerful we are, said Natasha with a laugh as she stood up.
Of course, Su Jin knew that. Otherwise, he would have run for it immediately. If Natasha and Shen Wu joined hands, he wouldnt be able to defeat them even if the seal around the rest of his psychokinesis were broken.
I have to say, the fact that you managed to rescue Ye Yun from my hands is impressive, since that was my planet. I know best how fortified that place is, and I myself might not have been able to take away a heavily guarded prisoner on such an island either. But of course, you also used the power of gods. Shen Wu didnt seem angry about the incident and even praised Su Jin.
You kept my friend prisoner, so its only natural for me to rescue her, said Su Jin.
Shen Wu made a face, then asked, Hows Ye Yun now? She should be very happy now that shes gotten away, right?
Su Jins heart skipped a beat and his gaze lost focus for a moment. Shen Wu noticed and immediately asked puzzledly, This expression of yours you mean Ye Yuns dead?
Su Jin was feeling angry inside, but he wasnt sure if he was angry with Shen Wu or angry with himself for being useless. His silence only confirmed Shen Wus conjecture.
Humph, I put in so much effort back then to get my hands on the item she possessed. To make sure she didnt suddenly die in a Challenge, I sent my best with her to Challenges. To protect her, I even lost one of my best subordinates. And now the one who rescued her actually let her die? Shen Wu sneered at Su Jin. What about her things?
Her things? Su Jin looked a little puzzled. Of course he knew what Shen Wu was talking about. Shen Wu was talking about that Badge of Godhood. But he didnt dare to look like he knew about it at all. If he became Shen Wus new target, he would have to fight a long, bloody battle.
Shen Wu stared at Su Jin, then shook his head with a sigh. They all disappeared with her?
Alright, thats quite enough. Were not here to talk about your little feud. There are more important things to settle. Natasha cut in when she realized that these two were not going to stop talking if she didnt step in. She looked at Su Jin and said, Mr. Su, Ive invited you here because I would like to ask you to join us for a Challenge. Would you be interested?
Join you for a Challenge? That was something that Su Jin would never have thought of. Is there a point to doing that?
I guess I didnt explain myself clearly. The Challenge were going to go through isnt the one we face once a month, but a specific Challenge, said Natasha with a smile.
A specific Challenge? Su Jin was even more puzzled now. He had an idea of what she was talking about, but wasnt sure if he was right.
Natasha went on, A specific Challenge is basically the Challenge that you enter with a guiding object. The content of the Challenge is already fixed, so we also call them specific Challenges.
Why do you need me to be part of the group? asked Su Jin. Natasha and Shen Wu combined were already formidable enough, so it didnt seem necessary for them to look for anyone else.
But Natasha said in a matter-of-factly voice, Because its very difficult. We need highly ranked experts like yourself.
Me? Im not considered one, said Su Jin.
Youre ranked #7 among the owners. You only revealed your ranking for a short while, but I saw it. Moreover, youre a psychokinetic owner, said Natasha with a big grin.
Oh, you need a psychokinetic owner? Look for Xu Ran then, said Su Jin.
But Natasha shook her head. We tried, but he turned us down. Xu Ran is a very formidable character, but hes too cautious.
You cant deny hes an intelligent man. He must have had good reasons for turning you down, and I believe the same reasons would apply to me. Su Jin got up to leave.
Dont be in such a hurry to leave. Unless youre not interested in becoming a god, said Shen Wu out of the blue. freew(e)bnovel.com
Su Jin froze as he spun around to stare at Shen Wu. Shen Wu said calmly, The Challenge were about to embark on can give one the power to become a god.
Become a god? Su Jin was shocked inside. These two werent fools and were definitely not people who didnt know what they were talking about. If they dared to say such things with such confidence, then this was probably reliable information.
Thats right. To make sure we dont screw anything up, five of us will embark on this Challenge, and every person is the best we could find. Weve got #1 among the owners, Durand, myself, Shen Wu whos at #4, Oscar whos at #5, and I hope the last member who will join us will be you, at #7.
Su Jin took a deep breath. The #1, #3, #4, #5, and #7 forming a group sounded completely insane. As long as their powers were not limited, they would breeze through even a Level A Challenge. In fact, they would probably pass an Earth Level Challenge with ease too.
What sort of Challenge are we going to face? asked Su Jin in a low voice.
Natasha had a pleased smile on her face when she heard Su Jin use the word we. She opened her Handbook and took a guiding object out so that Su Jin could take a look.
The guiding object was a key with the words Grave of the Gods on it.
