[Could it be? Jin Chenghan, Musashi Ten, and even Charles are all dead!?] Although he knew that Lu Fan’s displayed power was too ridiculous, such that it was normal for the three, including Charles, to not be able to match up to him, Jin Zaian knew of his Nephew’s Profession Characteristics. His Nephew would certainly make himself, and the rest of the group, undying. His Nephew had clearly placed Abyss Summons throughout the National Trial Secret Realm at the start, so even if he died, he should have been able to revive himself.
Now, with Jin Chenghan’s name disappearing from the Scoreboard Panel, there could only be one explanation — Jin Chenghan was truly dead.
In an instant, Jin Zaian’s face turned deathly pale, and he collapsed onto the sofa.
As the host, and Extremistis Country’s main delegate for this event, he would certainly be punished for Jin Chenghan’s death!
Jin Chenghan was the Jin Family’s future hope. Moreover, he was the number one Player among Extremistis Country’s younger generation. That was just how important his life was!
Furthermore, with Jin Chenghan’s death, Extremistis Country was completely eliminated from the National Trial.
Extremistis Country had paid a considerable price to create this National Trial Secret Realm, and had found ways to cooperate with Cherry Blossom Country. This was all to recover from the costs and get some profit through their victory.
And now, of the 460 portions of resources, Extremistis Country would not get anything. They had suffered a massive loss!
The weight of multiple failures together made Jin Zaian realize that even if he was not going to be sentenced to death by the Family, he would likely never again hold any important position in Extremistis Country.
He stared intently at the live stream, hoping for a miracle to appear.
However, since Jin Chenghan’s name disappeared from the Scoreboard Panel, the observation room’s display showed no further response, clearly because Jin Chenghan was truly dead.
“It’s over…” Jin Zaian sighed, rubbing his face vigorously while thinking about how to explain this to the Jin Family and Extremistis Country.
At this moment, the temperature in the observation room suddenly dropped by dozens of degrees, making Jin Zaian feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He was involuntarily shivering.
He was quite familiar with this feeling and was greatly startled, turning to look behind him.
Sure enough, a pitch-black Transport Array had appeared in the observation room at some point.
This Transport Array was different from those created by Mages. Its shape and form was irregular, as if space had been forcibly torn open by some being.
Indeed, this was the case. Purple-red tentacles that would not stop writhing surrounded this Transport Array. These tentacles were as thick as Human arms, holding the Transport Array open as a middle-aged man in black robes stepped through it.
This middle-aged man that wore black robes had his face mostly covered. But from the exposed lower half of his face, one could see he bore some resemblance to both Jin Zaian and Jin Chenghan.
When this person appeared, everyone present, including Jin Zaian, knelt down, not daring to raise their heads.
“Brother…” Jin Zaian’s voice trembled, his whole body shaking even more violently.
He naturally knew of this man. It was his Older Brother, the ruler of the Royal Family, the Jin Family, Jin Zaixi.
Years ago when the Nine Hell Demons plagued Extremistis Country, five Fourth Profession Players joined forces to defeat them.
Jin Zaixi was one of these five. Moreover, he was the strongest amongst the five.
Jin Zaixi looked at the static on the screen, and the room’s temperature dropped even further.
“My Son… is dead?” Jin Zaixi’s voice was hollow and eerily calm.
Jin Zaian dared not conceal anything, breaking out in cold sweat as he told the truth. “He… has really died…”
“No wonder I suddenly felt uneasy earlier. So that’s why…” Jin Zaixi spoke without much inflection, but the continuously dropping temperature revealed that his mood was far from good.
“Who did it?”
Jin Zaian quickly replied: “It was… it was the Dragon Country representative, Lu Fan!”
“This person is a Dragon Tamer. He seems to have more than one Pet Dragon. He must be extremely powerful. Not only Nephew, but even the Cherry Blossom Country representative, Musashi Ten, and the Star Strip Country representative, Charles, died at his hands…” Just as Jin Zaian finished speaking, he suddenly felt his neck tighten.
A purple-red tentacle emerged from Jin Zaixi’s black robes, wrapping around his neck.
Jin Zaian could clearly feel that if Jin Zaixi wished, he could easily snap his neck right now, right there.
“Brother… spare me…” Jin Zaian felt he could barely breathe. Even so, he dared not resist. He could only beg for mercy.
Jin Zaixi’s body was like a statue, completely still as he spoke. “The National Trial is entirely your responsibility. Now that my beloved Son is dead, and Extremistis Country has lost twenty portions of resources, your only explanation is that the Dragon Country representative is too strong?”
“No… I wouldn’t dare…” Jin Zaian was in even more pain, Unable to catch his breath, his face was now the color of pig’s liver.
The Jin Family servants watched as Jin Zaian approached death, but none dared to make a sound.
Finally, just as Jin Zaian was starting to roll his eyes back and was nearly strangled to death, Jin Zaixi withdrew his tentacle.
Jin Zaian’s body collapsed to the ground as he gasped for air while hurriedly saying. “Th-thank you…”
“I must take revenge!” Jin Zaixi’s voice grew even colder. “Since the Dragon Country representative is so strong, setting aside personal vengeance, we cannot allow him the chance to grow any further.”
“I want you to find an opportunity for me. I will join up with my four old friends. Just like how we killed the Nine Hell Demons, we will make sure to kill him…”
Jin Zaian shuddered upon hearing this.
These five heroes would join forces again after so many years!?
Jin Zaian initially found it unbelievable, but thinking about Lu Fan’s strength, he realized that ordinary Fourth Profession Players were no longer his match. So, Jin Zaixi uniting with the other four to ambush Lu Fan was not necessarily overkill.
Daring to say no more, he quickly kneeled and declared. “I understand. I will definitely have people closely watch the Dragon Country representative. Once there’s an opportunity, I will immediately inform you!”
Jin Zaixi gave no response. He just slowly turned and stepped into the Transport Array, disappearing to who knows where.
At the same time, the tentacles around the Transport Array all withdrew, and the Array completely vanished.
…
Meanwhile, Lu Fan had already stored the whole Nine Hell Demons Army into the Puppet Sub-Space.
He opened his Mission Panel to make a request to end the National Trial.
At the same time, all surviving representatives chose to accept the request. Everyone’s Mission Panel cleared, and the entire National Trial Secret Realm began to collapse, transforming into points of light gathering in different directions.
Of course, most of these light points flew toward Lu Fan.
These light points were the remaining energy of the Secret Realm, which would collectively transform into Rewards for the representatives.
With Lu Fan’s points being so high, his Completion Rewards would naturally be the most abundant.
Seeing his request to end immediately approved, Lu Fan could not help but smile. [Seems like everyone in the Secret Realm has long wanted it to end. It is just that each time, I had chosen to continue, which was why it had not ended.]
He estimated that quite a few people must have cursed his eighteen generations of Ancestors for repeatedly refusing to end the National Trial.
As Lu Fan thought back on this, countless light points gathered before him, forming three spheres of light.
Within these light spheres were clearly Lu Fan’s Secret Realm Completion Rewards.
Lu Fan was excited. This National Trial Secret Realm was the largest Secret Realm he had ever participated in, and he had gained so many points. He wondered what Rewards he would ultimately receive!?
