Refusing the mission …
The others looked at each other in confusion. What did Lu Li think this mission was?
Did he think this was a mission assigned by the Qi Family?
Could he say no at will?
This was not a compulsory mission. It was for the greater good of the human race. Everyone was willing to go. How could Lu Li say that if Linglong and the Dragon Antelope went, he would refuse the mission?
"Who do you think you are?"
Before the black-haired and gloomy old man could say anything, another cold voice came. A red-haired young man squinted at Lu Li and said, "You are the 10th on the Rookie List. How dare you ask the 6th and the 7th to quit?
Don't you think too highly of yourself? "
Linglong and Lu Ling curled their lips, not knowing what to say. They knew very well that Lu Li was doing this for their own good. He didn't want anything to happen to them.
However, neither of them were weak. Instead, they had killed many Abyssal Demon warriors over the years and had built up a reputation. Otherwise, they wouldn't be the 6th and the 7th on the Rookie List.
Over the past three years, many Abyssal Demon warriors had died in their hands.
Lu Li glanced over to the red-haired young man and asked, "Who are you? Does this have anything to do with you?"
The red-haired young man smiled with contempt. He raised his head and said, "I am Dong Yeying!
This has nothing to do with me. I just don't like you. "
"The 2nd on the Rookie List?"
Lu Li squinted. No wonder he was so arrogant. He was the 2nd who had risen to fame recently and was the descendant of an emperor.
Judging by Dong Yeying's behavior, was he trying to pursue Lu Li and Xiang Linglong?
Was that why he was standing up for them?
"Young Master Lu!"
Linglong suddenly said, "I don't think our business has anything to do with you.
What right do you have to ask us to leave?
Or do you think we are an eyesore here?
You must know how important this mission is. It concerns the safety of the entire human race. If you don't want to go, you can leave. "
"Enough!"
The gloomy old man suddenly released a powerful qi and energy and said, "The chances of survival are slim. If you are not united, then you will be courting death.
You are the God of Massacre, right?
If you don't want to go, you can leave now. I will not force you! "
Lu Ling said nothing from the beginning to the end. She looked calm as if this had nothing to do with her.
Lu Li was in a dilemma. He thought for a while and said to Lu Ling, "You shouldn't go. You should leave. I will try my best."
Lu Ling raised her eyebrows and said, "You don't have to say more. Some things need to be done. I have decided to do it and I will not quit."
Lu Li sighed to himself. Lu Ling had always been a stubborn girl. Once she made up her mind, nothing could change her mind. If so, it was pointless to say more.
Lu Li looked at the cold and gloomy old man, cupped his fists and said, "Lord, please give me the task. I will go!"
"Since you've agreed to go, then don't cause any more trouble!"
The old man coldly glanced at the group of people and said, "You have to understand one thing. This isn't a war between families, neither is it a war between people from the continent. It's a war between our entire humankind and the non-humankind.
This is a fight for survival. The Asmodians want to invade our homes, enslave our people, rob us of our resources and kill us all.
Therefore, you must be united. This task is not only about your life and death, but also the survival of the entire humankind. If you want to fight among yourselves, then don't go. It's no different from courting death! "
"Yes!
We understand, University Nong. "
Dongye Ying cupped his fists and said. The others followed suit, indicating that they would work together. So did Lu Li.
Finally, Lord Nong took out a map and hung it on the wall with satisfaction. He said, "Look at this mountain. It is called the Venomous Bee Mountain. We will build a portal to teleport you to the mountain directly. There is a rune on the mountain that our scouts built. You won't be discovered when you go there. But it is still possible that you will be discovered.
If there are any Demon Abyss soldiers nearby, you must kill them as quickly as possible. You can't cause too much of a commotion. "
Everyone nodded in agreement. If they were to be exposed in the past, they would most likely die.
Lu Li suddenly remembered something. He asked, "How is the space over there?
Is it stable?
Can we travel through space? "
If the space was stable, Lu Li could fly across the void, put the warriors into an interspatial artifact, and then fly away with them.
"No!"
Lord Nong gave a firm answer, "The Asmodians here are filled with evil spirits. The entire space is frozen. We will have to pay a great price to open the portal to send you over.
When you run away, we will have to destroy an artifact to ensure your safe return. "
Pointing to the map, Lord Nong continued, "Your destination is three hundred thousand miles to the north of the Venomous Bee Mountain. The altar is here.
As long as you can reach the altar and throw in the thunderbolts of destruction I gave you, the task will be accomplished. You can teleport back at once using the artifact. "
Everyone was relieved. Three hundred thousand miles was a short distance for them. If they flew at full speed, they could arrive in less than two hours.
"Don't be careless!"
Lord Nong shouted coldly, "There are three small devil centipedes in this one million li, and there are hundreds of thousands of devil abyss soldiers stationed there. No one can guarantee that when we attack, these hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be mobilized. This one million li road might be a road of death for you.
Once you are discovered, what awaits you will be the endless pursuit of the Asmodian Abyss army. Even powerful warriors of the Asmodian Lord level will hunt you down. By then, not only will you not be able to complete the task, all of you may die in the Asmodians' Den. "
Everyone nodded slightly. They were all extremely intelligent people, and they all knew that if they were discovered, the ending that awaited them would definitely not be pleasant.
The three hundred thousand miles was indeed a road of death. If they could destroy the altar, it would be worthwhile to die. On the other hand, if the altar was not destroyed, then they would all die in vain.
"Do you have any more questions?"
Lord Nong asked. Dong Yeying said, "What I want to know is, if there is a disagreement in there, who should we listen to?"
Dong Yeying's intention was clear. He wanted the leadership of the team.
The 10 of them were all geniuses and proud of themselves. They were afraid that no one would listen to another. If there was a disagreement, Dong Yeying needed to have absolute command.
"No one!"
