Chapter 391: Outrageous Casualties
When Su Ming came out of Ling Lao's hut, he discovered that the hut was located in the suburbs of Tianfeng City.
In Tianfeng City, which is known as a holy place for mankind, only in the suburbs near the city wall are there large tracts of woodland and orchards, and even some mountainous areas used for planting, which look like the territories of ethnic minorities, so that even if Ling Lao's cottage is located here, it does not seem very abrupt.
This is not the city center like Longxin District. There are not many professionals here, or even none at all. Most of the people here are ordinary people who are responsible for planting and other work.
No one would have thought that in such a place, the patron saint of Tianfeng City and the ultimate weapon of mankind lived here.
If it were any other time, Su Ming would definitely express some emotion.
But now, he is no longer in the mood.
Recalling the information he had just learned from Mr. Ling, Su Ming sighed softly.
"It seems that I can't keep a low profile this time."
As he spoke, Su Ming took out an item.
It was a coat of arms.
The emblem is about the size of a palm and seems to be made of a special extraordinary metal. The whole body is a noble and luxurious bright gold color, giving it a bit of a local tycoon gold feel.
There is a pattern on the coat of arms.
In the pattern, a human in armor holds a sword high up, pointing it at a ferocious beast, as if he is doing something huge.
Holding the emblem, Su Ming's mind was filled with the final farewell words from Mr. Ling.
"If you really encounter injustice or trouble that you can't solve, then show it."
"But you have to think it over carefully."
"Once you present it, it means you accept the position of Patronus."
"By then, even if you don't admit it, people all over the world will think that you are my disciple and the next patron saint."
The old man's calm and firm words seemed to still echo clearly in my ears.
Su Ming pursed his lips and finally put the emblem into the Gold Finger backpack.
"Meow."
Hai'er hugged Su Ming's arm, and seeing that Su Ming remained silent, she couldn't help but hum softly.
Obviously, the mermaid was also a little worried about Su Ming's condition.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Su Ming touched Hai'er's head and said, "Sorry for making you worry."
Hearing this, Hai'er shook her head, held Su Ming's hand, and placed it on her chest, as if to tell Su Ming that they were connected in heart and were one.
However, the touch from his fingertips somewhat shook Su Ming's faith in the Tao.
At that moment, Su Ming could only quickly retract his hand, and the various complicated emotions in his heart also dissipated a lot unconsciously.
"Me?"
Hai'er didn't understand, so she tilted her head and looked at Su Ming.
"It's okay." Su Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head, holding Hai'er's hand and said, "Let's go back first."
Hai'er naturally had no objection.
The two of them immediately walked towards the station.
Behind him, in the cabin, Old Ling appeared at the window, looking at Su Ming's back, and only disappeared after Su Ming left completely.
Tianfeng City, Station.
Holding Hai'er's hand, Su Ming walked inside the station. While using the terminal to book a ticket to Longxin District in the city center online, he opened the official website of the Professional Center to check the latest news of the past two days.
Two days have passed since I was brought out of the Midnight Maze by Old Ling.
Calculating the time, it should be today that the entrance to the Midnight Labyrinth will be closed, and this hidden wonderland will leave the surface again and return to the gap between the real world and the Demon Prison.
Su Ming really wanted to know what had happened in these two days.
But after checking, Su Ming discovered that the most popular latest news on the Internet was not the news about the Midnight Maze, but his own news.
That’s right, it’s my own news.
""Breaking news! The youngest senior professional in history!""
""Newcomer? No! He is the most terrifying dark horse!""
"A dual-professional at only 18 years old!"
““It turns out that he is the most legendary figure in ‘Blue Mercury’!””
"King Ming? Su Ming? The owner of the divine weapon Demon Emperor Sword!"
"The world record has been broken! A monster that has never been seen before and will never be seen again!"
As a result, news reports related to Su Ming occupied almost all the hot searches.
Just as Mr. Ling said, he has completely become a hot topic in Tianfeng City, and his true strength has been completely exposed.
Although, in the so-called latest news on the Internet, there was no report on Su Ming's current level, but the fact that he unilaterally crushed No. 3 among the "Ten Demons" and defeated a six-star peak-level existence without any pressure had already been widely spread.
Therefore, although the world does not know Su Ming's specific star rating yet, discussions about his strength are endless.
Su Ming took a quick look and found that the topic about his true strength was indeed being discussed very intensely.
Just like the online news in the previous life, the discussions about the combat power and the wars between the characters in each dimension are often the most intense. As long as it involves topics such as "combat power" and "strength", this type of topic is almost the most popular.
Su Ming took a quick look and found that the most widely accepted statement was actually the same as the truth.
"I think it's unlikely that Su Ming is a seven-star professional."
"Yes, he is only eighteen years old. No matter how talented he is, it is impossible for him to be promoted to Seven Stars at this age, right?"
"But he was able to unilaterally crush a six-star peak hunter, which proves that his strength should be much stronger than a six-star peak hunter."
"Much stronger than the peak six-star? Isn't that seven-star?"
"No, considering that he is a dual-class player, even if he has not yet been promoted to seven stars, he has enough strength to unilaterally crush a six-star peak hunter."
"I think that Su Ming may have reached six stars in both professions, or one profession has reached six stars and the other has reached five stars. In addition, he has the ability to mutate. As long as his inheritance of combat skills and spiritual skills is not bad and he is not seriously lacking in combat experience, he should be able to crush a six-star peak hunter."
"I agree. The advantages of dual-class players are too great. As long as one of the two classes is six-star and the other is five-star, plus the mutation ability and two awakening abilities, it is not impossible to crush a six-star peak hunter."
"I agree with this statement. Either two professions have reached six stars, or one has six stars and the other has five stars. Seven stars is too exaggerated."
"agree."
This view is currently the most recognized.
"Sure enough, the analysis of stupid netizens either looks reasonable or really is reasonable."
Su Ming was also shocked.
My true level has indeed been clearly analyzed by many people. It is not seven stars, but it is better than seven stars.
Su Ming even saw many people leaving comments under the posts discussing various combat powers.
"It's unbelievable that an eighteen-year-old newcomer could actually crush a six-star top-level underground professional."
"I'm afraid Su Ming's strength is not much different from that of a true seven-star professional, right?"
"He's only eighteen!"
"Woo woo, I'm already 38 years old this year, but I haven't been promoted to a superior position. People who are 20 years younger than me are almost at the pinnacle of humanity. I feel like I've been living like a dog for so many years!"
"I don't believe this is true! It must be a rumor! It was bought by 'Azure Mercury'! I'm going to report them to the Professional Center!"
"Is there a jerk upstairs?"
"This is news from the three A-level teams, Summer Chasing Smoke, Jinlong Jade Pavilion, and Iron Rose, as well as many other B-level teams. The Tianfeng City government has already sent people to confirm it, but they haven't denied it yet. What does this mean? Can't you see it?"
"Even the authorities have tacitly accepted this!"

"I hope it's true. This way, we humans will have another legendary figure who can fight against the Demonic Prison, protect Tianfeng City, and protect the world. This is definitely a good thing."
"I agree. I really hope it's true."
"There is such a super existence among us humans. When he grows up, he will be the second guardian angel!"
"The more strong humans there are, the better. The more geniuses and evildoers there are, the better. This way, we humans will be safer."
“That’s right.”
There are many speeches like this.
Obviously, in the hearts of the people, Su Ming's excellence is not a bad thing, but a good thing.
Most people expressed their blessings, and even said that the birth of such an evil person should be celebrated. Only a few people expressed jealousy, disdain, and unwillingness to believe.
The trend of public opinion is not a mixture of good and bad, but the bad part is in the minority.
This gave Su Ming some understanding.
"For most people, they really hope that a new guardian god will appear, so that they can live and work in peace and contentment in this apocalyptic world."
They are not like some ambitious people, nor are they like some superiors. When faced with such things, the first thing they think about is their own interests and whether they can profit from it.
They just want to be able to live and work in peace.
"The people that Elder Ling is really protecting should be these people, right?"
Su Ming seemed to be thinking about something.
Is it because of this that Mr. Ling chose not to join any force?
Su Ming thought about it, and finally gave up. He began to scroll through the screen, looking for the latest news about the Polar Night Maze.
Fortunately, the news from the Midnight Maze was equally sensational.
Therefore, Su Ming didn't spend much effort to find the relevant reports.
It is said that when the Midnight Labyrinth appeared and the entrance was opened, when many professional teams entered the Midnight Labyrinth in search of treasure, the army surrounding the wilderness where the Midnight Labyrinth was located came under an inexplicable attack, and were slaughtered along with an S-level team of professionals.
At that time, thousands of soldiers were massacred and hundreds of professionals lost their lives, including two six-star professionals and eight senior professionals.
If these casualties occurred in Longyao City, they would definitely be fatal.
How many six-star professionals and senior professionals are there in Longyao City? During the Huaming Battle, the head of the Wang family in Longyao City was seriously injured and retired, which caused regret and grief throughout the Internet, not to mention the sacrifice of a total of ten senior professionals, including two six-star professionals.
But this is just the beginning.
As the killers entered the Midnight Maze, more professional teams were attacked by them, resulting in heavy casualties.
Even when Su Ming and others were on the tenth floor, preparing to investigate the hell beasts, the dozens of senior professionals who stayed outside to support them were said to have been massacred unilaterally after the "evil" people appeared, resulting in heavy casualties.
Su Ming checked the list of victims and found Qiao Zhi's name on it.
Zhu Yun was also seriously injured and on the verge of death. If it weren't for the other senior professionals in the "Iron Rose" who risked their lives to save her and allowed her to escape, the second-in-command of the "Iron Rose" might have died as well.
Of the senior professionals who were responsible for the response outside the canyon that day, 90% died, and only about 10% escaped with serious injuries, resulting in heavy casualties for several major professional teams.
In addition, Su Ming and Qing Qing's final attack with their divine weapons caused the entire tenth floor to collapse, affecting many people. Among the thousands of professionals who entered the tenth floor, quite a few suffered misfortune.
“.”
Su Ming fell silent.
The casualties were so heavy . "Fortunately, Chi Qian and Mu Yan are all fine."
After entering the Midnight Maze, Su Ming gave each of the four girls in the team a life-saving item and an escape item.
The life-saving prop is the substitute scarecrow.
Su Ming didn't have much of this stuff originally, but when he opened the Blue Demon War-Stopping Ring to resolve the hidden danger brought by the Demon Emperor's Sword, and in order to prepare resources to increase Tong Xinyao's spiritual power, Su Ming opened a large number of packages, and finally found a lot of substitute scarecrows from the packages.
So, Su Ming prepared one for each of the girls as a means of saving their lives.
The escape item is a special alchemical device. Once activated, it can pop a person out of the current map at the rule level. It is equivalent to a random teleportation scroll and is very useful.
When Mu Yan, Feng Qing'er and Tong Xinyao were attacked by "evil", they had no choice but to use their substitute scarecrow to save their lives. They were randomly teleported to another floor and escaped.
So, the girls are all fine.
Chi Qian was fine, and Xu Xiayan was also fine. Under Hai'er's cover, those people were the first to leave the basin and the canyon. Although they were finally caught in the aftermath of the collision between the Demon Emperor's Sword and the Blade of Sin, they all suffered some injuries, but they were not fatal.
This made Su Ming feel relieved.
At least, nothing happened to the people he cared about.
However, it is an inevitable fact that the major professional teams were either completely wiped out or suffered heavy casualties.
This incident caused great chaos in Tianfeng City, alarming many hunter families and even causing them to take action.
Everyone expressed great anger towards the culprit who caused all this.
Especially the Qiao family. Qiao Zhi’s death made all the members of the Qiao family, including Qiao Liang, fall into a state of rage.
""sin"."
Su Ming narrowed his eyes, with a cold light flashing in them.
"I, Su Ming, will remember this grudge."
