Chapter 26: Go Big (3rd Update)

Zhou Baiyu wanted exactly this effect.

In Blood Hunting Mode, there would be Hunters, and the Hunters and she, along with Ling Hansu, would enter the pre-world together.

The Hunters would impersonate a native character.

But one thing, the Hunters were also at the transfer station now, they must also be paying attention to her speech.

And the Hunters only needed to kill one of them to complete their task.

So...

She needed to make the Hunters hate her.

"I suggest you go hunt the Snow Demon instead, they barely have any resistance. Killing such a weak woman suits you better. After all, being chosen as a Hunter means even God thinks you can only kill women. Don't strain yourself."

"As for me, don't even think about it, of course, you can also try to challenge yourself and hunt me for a higher difficulty."

"I'm different from you losers who can only taunt, I'm Jiang Xianwu, big as a radish, bold as can be."

"Really, that Hunter over there, I'm very wealthy, besides the thousands of Pioneer Points on me, I also have the privilege of getting a divine blessing for free in every conscription."

"They say wealth shouldn't be flaunted, but what can you do about it?"

"I don't think you can kill me, but maybe you can complete your task by killing the Snow Demon?"

"Good luck, I'm rooting for you, little noob."

The entire forum went silent again.

Only Zhou Baiyu's endless taunts and trash talk were speeding along.

However, mere taunting was useless; what if the other party was a calm assassin?

Therefore, Zhou Baiyu initiated the second layer of protection measures for Ling Hansu.

Before heading to the transfer station, Zhou Baiyu knew that Ling Hansu served the biggest power, Future Gate.

Future Gate was a force that liked to occupy the moral high ground in everything they did. They always had a good reason for their actions.

Zhou Baiyu could even guess that they had a splendid justification for giving up on rescuing the Snow Demon.

This was good...

Because such people care about their image. So Zhou Baiyu, seizing the last few minutes, said:

"Right, Snow Demon, I remember you are from Future Gate, right? If people from Future Gate aren't going to send anyone to save you, then they probably won't collect your body, nor seek revenge for you, will they?"

"Tsk tsk, such a pity, the biggest guild doesn't seem all that after all, huh? It would be one thing if you died at the hands of a monster."

"But if you were to die at the hands of a Hunter, well, if I were the guild leader, I would definitely issue a hunting order."

"Why don't you join me in the future? How about we form a duo?"

The Snow Demon didn't respond, because Zhou Baiyu had privately messaged the Snow Demon, telling her to just focus on preparing for battle and wait to enter the pre-world.

But Zhou Baiyu's words did indeed hit the soft underbelly of the number one power hard.

The tactician behind Future Gate, "Great Winds Stir," had originally planned to—

Create a wave of public opinion first, forging a noble reason to abandon the rescue of the Snow Demon.

Then, after the Snow Demon's return, they would woo her.

This plan had not changed, so to woo the Snow Demon, at least some gesture had to be made:

"Although we think the Snow Demon is unlikely to survive, remember one thing, we don't rescue the Snow Demon because we do not wish to sacrifice anyone."

"In our guild, the life of a Sky Eye is a life, the life of any other profession is also a life."

"However! The Snow Demon is still one of us in the end, I don't know which brother has taken the Blood Hunting task..."

"I just want to say, you'd better weigh your own strength, if it's enough to oppose Future Gate!"

```

"If the Snow Demon dies at the hands of a monster, we'd accept our loss! But if the Snow Demon dies at the hands of a Hunter, whether it's in the precursor world or the original world, we at Future Gate will relentlessly hunt you down!"

```

The words from the creator of the great wind actually conveyed a sense of helplessness.

The emergence of Blood Hunting Mode had convinced him that the Snow Demon and Jiang Xianwu had almost no chance of survival.

Besides, his words essentially directed all the hostility towards Jiang Xianwu.

If they couldn't kill the Snow Demon, then they would have to kill Jiang Xianwu instead.

Even if the two of them managed to successfully clear the challenge and survive the horrifying night in the Gu Tower, or survive within the Blood Hunting Mode...

He would have no face to recruit Jiang Xianwu.

Zhou Baiyu laughed.

Seeing the creator's words, he knew that with just a few sentences, he could ensure that the priority of the Snow Demon being killed was at least reduced to the lowest.

It was just that they couldn't convey voice here, only text. Otherwise, Zhou Baiyu was ninety percent confident that, thanks to his orator's trait, he could incite hatred in the other party.

Make them determined to kill only him. But it didn't matter, once he entered the precursor world, he could draw hatred just the same.

The forum of the precursor voices had never been so quiet before,

Clearly, Zhou Baiyu's arrogance had shocked everyone.

Once the precursor's challenge reached a certain level, the time they could stay at the transfer station would be extended. Many people preferred to stay at the station to gather information.

So at this moment, countless precursors saw the arrogant words of "Jiang Xianwu".

And a few people analyzed the intentions of Jiang Xianwu, silently admiring the man who was about to die.

In the face of death, taking on all the dangers was the choice of a true man.

After sparking the conversation, the forum was filled with people mocking and admiring Jiang Xianwu.

But at this time, Jiang Xianwu couldn't be bothered to look at the precursor voices anymore.

He turned to Lin:

"There are two minutes left before I leave this place, but I don't believe I will fail. So there's one thing I'm really curious about."

"Go ahead."

"You once said that the precursor value is omnipotent. Can I use my precursor value to prevent being spied upon?"

The question Zhou Baiyu asked at this moment, akin to one on the brink of death, was indeed very interesting.

Lin probably guessed Zhou Baiyu's intention. This guy's really bold.

She narrowed her eyes, a playful smile appearing at the corner of her mouth:

"It's been a long time since a Mutator as interesting as you has emerged. Yes, you can."

Zhou Baiyu shrugged:

"It's not that interesting, really. If I die, there's nothing left, but I'm only thinking about coming back alive."

"I guess my high-profile actions, combined with the rarity of Redemption, and the spectacle of Blood Hunting Mode, have whet their appetite."

"There will definitely be watchers willing to pay to see how I die or how I survive. Ha, it wouldn't surprise me if, once I'm back, strategies are flying all over. Such strategies, definitely would be very appealing."

"But how could I possibly let them take advantage of me? So, I need a way to block spying. Block only me, not the Snow Demon."

Lin's smile grew even wider:

"You should know that the remaining precursor value could be used to buy some protections, which could increase your chances of survival."

"Not buying. Surviving in itself would be abnormal, and since it's abnormal, why consider a normal strategy?"

At this moment, Zhou Baiyu truly embodied the essence of the "God of Chaos and Anomalies"—a risk-taker at heart.

"I'm going to play big!"
