Chapter 1005: Three Missions

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Two days later, in front of the Noble Family Consultation Chamber, all members of the chamber were gathered here, including the people who would be joining Cao Hongtu in this trial.

Wang Teng hadn’t arrived yet. Many people started to get impatient after waiting for a while.

“Why isn’t Wang Teng here?”

“How can he make so many people wait for him?”

“Did he give up because he can’t gather four cosmos-stage martial warriors?”

“Maybe. He doesn’t have any background, so it won’t be easy for him to find four cosmos-stage martial warriors.”

…

Of course, only a few people were complaining. Most of them had their heads lowered and eyes closed to rest.

These members of the Noble Family Consultation Chamber didn’t have any noble status. They were just representatives sent by the various families.

The noble families had been around for a long time, so each faction was huge. Normally, for such occasions, the ones who were free would come. Thus, there were many young martial warriors. They didn’t have much consideration and just spoke their minds.

Moreover, this matter was a waste of time and they couldn’t earn any money from it. It was understandable that they felt unhappy.

Cao Hongtu smirked when he heard the discussions around him. He lost the first round, but he would definitely win this one.

Wang Teng had no background. How could he fight with him?

Even if he managed to find a five-member team, he wouldn’t possess any threat.

Cao Hongtu was a heaven-stage martial warrior. Even if his ability was pushed down to the cosmos stage, he wouldn’t have any problems dealing with a few other cosmos-stage martial warriors.

After a few minutes, when everyone was getting even more impatient, Wang Teng finally arrived.

“I’m sorry I’m late,” Wang Teng said helplessly.

He was going to leave early in the morning, but someone unexpectedly came to find him and brought news of the Flaming River World, hence why he was late.

Of course, he couldn’t explain things clearly to the people here.

Everyone appeared furious. They wanted to mock him, but the head of the chamber spoke first, “Since everyone is here, let’s go.”

The head and the other members of the chamber were assessors of this test, so they would be heading to the Flaming River World too.

Since the head had spoken, the others had nothing to say. They shut their mouths obediently. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

Cao Hongtu glanced at Wang Teng and saw the four figures dressed in gray gowns. He frowned slightly.

Four cosmos-stage martial warriors?

He was puzzled, wondering where Wang Teng found these people.

The head glanced at the four men in gray too. There was a strange glimmer in his eyes.

Then, everyone boarded the rail train and came to the planet’s dock. They took a universe spacecraft to the Sirius Planet.

It was a universe-level spacecraft owned by the empire’s military. It was huge, exceptionally huge. The most important thing was, the material used to build it was tough and sturdy. It was strong enough to withstand a universe-stage martial warrior’s attack.

One universe-level spacecraft was worth as much as a few hundred QY-E63 spacecraft.

The spacecraft departed from the dock. It traveled through space and flew toward the Sirius Planet.

Everyone sat in their respective seats on the universe-level spacecraft.

The nobles knew how to enjoy themselves. They already had delicious wines and spiritual fruits on their tables. Many beauties from various races were attending to them…

Such vices!

Wang Teng complained in disdain.

Then, he touched his chin and wondered if he should get some beautiful ladies on his spacecraft after this trial. They could talk about life and study some psychology together. It would add some fun to his life.

He had too much money and nowhere to spend it.

“Wang Teng, Cao Hongtu!” the head suddenly spoke.

“Sir!” Wang Teng and Cao Hongtu replied hurriedly.

“Before we reach the Sirius Planet, let me explain the details of this trial.

“After you enter the Flaming River World, you’ll need to complete three missions,” the head said slowly.

“Three missions!” Wang Teng turned serious, paying full attention to the head.

“The first mission is to find 25 thousand kilograms of flaming river crystals. The one with more flaming river crystals wins.”

There was a commotion after the head finished speaking.

“25 thousand kilograms of flaming river crystals?”

“That’s not easy. The flaming river crystals are found under the lava stream in the Flaming River World. The lava streams are death zones formed by the owner using the power of origin. Normal cosmos-stage martial warriors won’t be able to stay there for more than half an hour.”

“Also, after many years of development, there aren’t many flaming river crystals left. It won’t be easy to get 25 kilograms.”

…

These missions were decided after many discussions with other universe-stage martial warriors. Hence, the members of the chamber didn’t know about them.

Wang Teng was surprised by the noises around him and the deep frown on Cao Hongtu’s face.

The first mission seemed quite hard.

“Round Ball, do you know what the flaming river crystals are?” Wang Teng asked in his mind.

“It’s a special crystal found in the Flaming River World. The owner created it accidentally when he merged the origin of flame with other high-class energy stones. It’s great for fire-element star beasts,” Round Ball said.

“So this crystal is good for Little White and the metal armor flaming scorpion,” Wang Teng touched his chin and said.

“That’s right. It’s useful to your two spiritual pets.” Round Ball shook its head and continued, “However, you need to get them first.”

“Are they hard to find?” Wang Teng asked.

“Didn’t you hear what they said? There are probably only a few flaming river crystals in the stream now,” Round Ball said.

Wang Teng started contemplating. He didn’t ask any more questions.

“The second mission is to kill 500 Fire Black Toads at the celestial stage or above. A tenth of them must be at the cosmos stage. Similarly, the more the better,” the head explained the second mission.

Everyone was shocked once again.

Round Ball started to explain before Wang Teng could ask, “The Fire Black Toad is a special star beast found in the Flaming River World. It’s the hardest star beast to deal with. Most of the time, it hides in the flaming rivers.

“The flaming rivers or streams are one of the five most dangerous places in the Flaming River World. There’re many rivers covering the entire world. This is where the world got its name from.

“If you want to kill a Fire Black Toad, you need to enter the flaming river. It’s rumored that there are some strange flames in the river, so it’s an extremely dangerous place.

“However, besides having a higher temperature, no one has discovered any strange things inside.

“But many martial warriors died after entering the rivers. No corpses could be found and no one knows the reason.”

This strange flame can’t be a divine flame, right??Wang Teng chuckled. He didn’t care.

Divine flames weren’t common.

On the other side, Cao Hongtu’s expression turned grim. He knew how difficult it was.

He was an earth-element martial warrior. He didn’t have much advantage in the dangerous fire element world.

The flaming rivers were known as one of the five most dangerous places in the Flaming River World. Even he was worried.

Wang Teng started to gloat when he saw this scene.

“The third mission is the hardest. No one has ever completed it,” the head continued.

“The hardest mission? Could it be…”

Many people realized something and were astounded.

“Father, is it…” Cao Wu’s expression changed as he asked.

Both he and Cao Jiaojiao were cosmos-stage martial warriors. They were helping their father in this trial.

Cao Hongtu furrowed his brows and nodded slowly. He was thinking of the same thing.

Wang Teng felt a little confused when he noticed their expressions.

No one had ever completed this mission?

“It should be that mission.” Round Ball’s serious voice resounded.

“You know about it?” Wang Teng asked in surprise.

“There’re many legacies left by the owner in the Flaming River World. That guy is quite a weirdo. He left 53 legacies. 52 of them had been found. Only one is left,” Round Ball explained.

“53 legacies?” Wang Teng was dumbfounded. Then, he understood and said, “The last mission is probably to find the remaining legacy, right?”

“Highly likely,” Round Ball replied.

“Your third mission is to find the last legacy,” the head revealed the answer.

“Sir, no one has ever found the last legacy. What if we fail?” Cao Hongtu asked involuntarily.

“That’s right, this mission is quite impossible.”

“In the past, many formidable warriors entered the Flaming River World, but no one has ever found it. Maybe…”

The other people agreed. All of them felt that the third mission was impossible.

The head wasn’t in a hurry. He waited silently for them to finish before replying in a commanding tone, “You must complete this mission. If you succeed in the first two missions but fail in the last, you can only inherit the baron’s title after accumulating enough military exploits.”

“What!” Everyone gasped in shock.

This request was a little unexpected.

“Sir, if I complete the first two missions, can I inherit the baron’s title immediately? After all, I’ve accumulated many military exploits,” Cao Hongtu hesitated before asking.

“Those military exploits allowed you to have the chance to participate in this trial. If you want to win, you need to continue accumulating merits,” the head replied.

“I understand.” Cao Hongtu was frustrated.

“Pfft!” Wang Teng almost burst out laughing. He glanced at Cao Hongtu and noticed that his face was a little black.

But this wasn’t a good thing for him either. He must complete the third mission if he wanted to inherit the baron’s title immediately.

Accumulating merits wasn’t easy. Mind you, Cao Hongtu spent countless years before he earned enough of them. Yet he still couldn’t get the title.

If he had to restart the accumulation, who knew how long he would take?
