After a long night's journey, Mo Jianchu felt weak all over and couldn't muster any energy. When he checked the status bar, he realized that his hunger was too low.

Just when I was looking for mountain berries to fill my stomach, I smelled the smell of barbecue.

Savor the taste carefully, sweet yet sour, fragrant and mouth-watering.

If your guess is correct, it’s probably charcoal-grilled lemon duck!

Thinking of lemon duck, Mo Jianchu felt even more hungry.

He followed the smell of meat and walked into a bamboo forest.

I saw a man in a white shirt slowly rotating the fire rack, constantly applying sesame oil and lemon juice to the duck meat to ensure that each piece was roasted to a golden brown.

The man's three-dimensional facial features were as handsome as a knife, and his whole person exuded a chivalrous demeanor. His smile was like the sunshine in August, giving people a very warm feeling.

If placed in the real world, he would definitely be a handsome man who charmed many girls.

When the man saw Mo Jianchu coming towards him, he immediately showed a friendly smile: "Are you hungry, sir? Come and try my new dishes."

Due to lack of goodwill, Mo Jianchu could only find out basic information such as the NPC's name, age, gender, and level.

[Name: Liu Zijin]

【Sex: Male】

【Age:24】

【Level:30】

[Identity: The Demonic Envoy of the World-Destroying Cult]

[Skills: Thousand Miles of Divine Movement (Sixth Rank of Strangeness), Gathering Qi and Cold Condensation (Sixth Rank of Strangeness)...]

But what Mo Jianchu didn't expect was that his level was as high as level 30, which was equivalent to a city lord level boss.

"If we establish a good relationship with this NPC, wouldn't we be able to walk sideways in this territory?"

When Mo Jianchu started talking to Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, his joy was already palpable: "Thank you for your hospitality, brother!"

After saying this, Mo Jianchu stopped being polite and sat directly on the floor, raising his hand to reach for the duck meat on the hot coals.

But he was stopped by Liu Zijin.

"Haha, you don't have to be so anxious. Let me season it first to make sure it tastes more delicious."

Immediately afterwards, he picked up the knife at his waist and cut off a piece of leg meat with lightning speed, wrapped it in lotus leaves, and sprinkled cumin, chili powder and other seasonings on it. Finally, he did not forget to shake it to make the seasoning more even.

After a series of operations, Liu Zi Jincai handed the lotus leaf duck meat to Mo Jianchu.

"Elaborate! So particular!" Mo Jianchu gave a thumbs up and exclaimed.

I didn’t expect that this update would transform artificial intelligence into something so humane.

The duck meat melted in your mouth, and the aroma flowed throughout your body. Mo Jianchu felt as if he was immersed in lotus flowers.

"It's delicious! It's fat but not greasy, and the flavor is rich and mellow. Such delicious food is the best in the world." Mo Jianchu was full of praise and wiped out half of the duck in one breath.

Liu Zijin laughed heartily, and at the end of the laugh, there was a little tear in his eyes: "In the whole world, I am the first one who is willing to eat the food I cook!"

"How do you say this?" Mo Jianchu asked in surprise.

Before Liu Zijin could answer, a group of people covered in white cloth emerged from the forest. They were armed with sharp weapons and quickly surrounded Mo Jianchu and the two of them.

"Hmph! Do you still have to ask? Who dares to eat the food of the Demonic Demon of the World Destruction Sect?! I'm afraid my life is too long!" The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

The scars on the man's face were very hideous, covering half of his face like dozens of centipedes. He must have suffered inhumane torture.

Mo Jian was fine if he didn't check at first, but when he checked, he was shocked to find that this man was actually another level 30 city lord boss!

[Name: Yin Gen]

【Sex: Male】

【Age: 30】

[Identity: Great Supervisor of the Salvation Cult]

[Skills: Victory Drum Fight (Seventh Rank), Divine Hiding (Strange Sixth Rank)...]

The level of the group of people who came with him was not low at all, with an average level of about 15, which was equivalent to the level of a squad leader.

"What happened?! Did I break into the boss's party?! But I'm only level 1!" Mo Jianchu broke into a cold sweat and didn't dare to say a word.

"Who do I think it is? It turns out to be Wang Yingen, the follower of the northwest! No wonder I always feel like someone is following me. This is in line with your style! You have worked hard to escort me all the way to Lieyang City! Beyond that is the power of my World-Destroying Sect.

"Scope, if I don't entertain you well, I'm afraid everyone in the world will laugh at me!" Liu Zijin glanced at the scarred man with disdain and said coldly, his words full of sarcasm.

"Hmph! I let you escape last time, but now I have gathered more than 20 masters from the Salvation Sect to surround you. This time you can't escape! Let's capture you without any help! I'll leave your body intact for the time being!" Yin Gen yelled bitterly.

, obviously the last loss caused him great humiliation.

"Haha! Isn't it because you ran away? You have no fighting skills, you are shameless, and you are very good at confusing right and wrong! Besides, do you really think you can catch me with these little soldiers and crab generals? Do you look down on me too much?

!" As soon as Liu Zijin stood up, a cold wave immediately invaded the air, causing the atmosphere at the scene to drop to freezing point.

Only then did Mo Jianchu realize that they belonged to different camps.

Although Mo Jianchu had long heard that [Staring into the Abyss] would launch a camp system, it was still in the preliminary construction stage.

I didn’t expect that this update would actually implement the camp system.

Now, he finally understood the reason for choosing the initial position.

"Emotions allow players to choose one of the camps, so is it time for a camp mission?"

Thinking of this, Mo Jianchu immediately checked his taskbar.

As expected, a golden task appeared in front of me in the task bar——

[Help the ghosts of the Destruction Sect to escape from trouble, reward: 5 core points, reputation of the Destruction Sect 100, favorability of the Destruction Sect 10. 】

Just taking a look at it, Mo Jianchu almost dropped his jaw in shock.

I never thought that the first camp mission would be golden!

According to the game settings, the task quality from low to high is divided into: white, green, blue, purple, gold, red.

The higher the color, the higher the difficulty and the richer the rewards.

Putting aside the reputation rewards, these 5 core points alone were enough to make him excited.

You know, the higher the player level, the more things can be unlocked and the more skills can be used.

Core points are the only way to improve your level.

Except for the few core points rewarded by the main mission, other core missions are random and cannot be encountered except by chance.

But this was the first time he had encountered a mission that rewarded so many core points in one go.

It would be unimaginable to do it in normal internal testing.

Mo Jianchu still remembered that it took him two days and one night to obtain 1 core point.

But now, these 5 core points fell directly on his head like pie in the sky.

How could he not be shocked?!

With sharp eyes, he suddenly discovered a suspicious point - the mission only mentioned the Destruction Cult, but not the Salvation Cult.

If you are from the opposing camp, then helping the Destruction Cult will naturally attract the hatred of the Salvation Cult, but this mission does not make this clear.

"Could it be that... players can also have dual-camp identities?"

Suddenly, a shout broke his thoughts.

"Whoever kills Liu Zijin will be rewarded with 100,000 new coins and promoted to two levels!" Yin Gen raised his arms and shouted.

When the congregants heard that there was a huge reward, the eyes they looked at Liu Zijin immediately changed from fear to greed, as if they were looking at a little sheep with white and tender meat.

They looked at each other and slashed at Mo Jianchu with their swords.

The flash of swords and shadows were full of murderous intent, with no intention of holding back.

Mo Jianchu tried his best to dodge, but was still hit by the knife. Fortunately, only a big gash was made in his clothes.

Seeing that the critical part had not been hit, the man turned the blade of the knife and slashed horizontally towards Mo Jianchu's head.

At the critical moment, a dagger flew over and flicked the knife from the man's hand.

Mo Jianchu followed the traces and found that it was Liu Zijin who came to the rescue and saved him from beheading.

Mo Jianchu knew in his heart that there was a [Conscious Emergency Protection Mechanism], and even if he died in the game, he would just be forced to disconnect.

The ontology of the real world will not be harmed in any way.

Therefore, he did not show too much panic, but asked everyone in surprise: "I have no enmity with you, why are you killing me?!"

"Hmph! All of us can see clearly that you little brat was just talking and laughing with that devil. You two are obviously the same gang! He deserves to be killed! You deserve to die too! Come on, everyone! Cut them into pieces.

!" Yin Gen stood aside and directed everyone to come forward and kill him.

"You falsely claim to be teachers of benevolence and righteousness, doing great good deeds and cultivating the Way. However, what you do is despicable and despicable things! I met this dear friend by chance, and we met by fate, but you were so unjustly accused and persecuted! It's really hateful! Angry!

You don’t even think about going back alive today!”
