Chapter 289 The Coffin Bearer

Immediately, a group of classmates signed up, and Ye Xuan was the one who selected from among them.

This time, he and Su Mengli, along with Long Hanjie, Zhou Yun, Xia Mo, and Qin Kai, this former team of six, were definitely all going to participate.

Among the six, Su Mengli’s Flame Red Lotus was suitable for large-scale attacks, making her a player specializing in group annihilation.

Ye Xuan possessed electromagnetic manipulation, along with the Luxian Sword. Electromagnetic manipulation was a large-scale control ability, while the Luxian Sword was unparalleled in killing, making him an assassin with control abilities. The Luxian Sword could also instantly kill the opponent’s core position.

Long Hanjie transformed into the Divine Form of the Ancestral Dragon for battle, excelling in both offense and defense, suitable for direct confrontation with opponents. He was a warrior-type player.

Zhou Yun’s Thousand-Armed Guanyin had inherent control abilities and could also enhance the status of allies, leaning towards a support role.

As for Xia Mo, her abilities were versatile, and her specific utility depended on her target for COSplay.

Qin Kai, originally a person with a useless humanoid spatial ring, now equipped with the Green Magic Set, had considerably impressive long-range killing power, resembling a weakened version of Su Mengli.

The people selected by Ye Xuan were chosen to be as compatible as possible with himself and the other five, so that everyone could have a way to deal with different environments and opponents.

After much deliberation, Ye Xuan finally selected two people, one of whom was Ye Xuan’s old friend, Qin Heng.

Although Qin Heng’s abilities were S-class, his ability development rate was not slow, having already reached over sixty percent. His two pig slaughtering knives were also quite effective against mutated beasts, making him a formidable opponent in battle. Moreover, since the two had been friends, Ye Xuan naturally did not refuse.

The other person was named Chen Li, whose ability was an advanced version of the Heart of the Earth, known as the Son of the Earth, with an ability class reaching SS.

The Son of the Earth’s effect was to connect oneself with the earth, allowing any attacks received to be distributed over a radius of a hundred miles of land. Additionally, he could manipulate earth and stones, creating earth and stone avatars for combat, showcasing exceptional defensive capabilities.

Chen Li excelled in defense, a quality lacking in Ye Xuan’s team. Furthermore, his ability to manipulate earth and stones would be advantageous in the upcoming mission to rescue people from the mine, where earth and stone resources were abundant.

Additionally, Chen Li’s ability development, while not on par with SS-class prodigies like Xia Mo and Zhou Yun, was still considerable. Therefore, Ye Xuan had no reason to reject Chen Li.

As for the others, either their ability development was not high enough or their abilities overlapped too much with those in Ye Xuan’s team, making their inclusion insignificant, leading Ye Xuan to reject them.

At this point, there were already eight people selected, not far from the ten mentioned by Chen Ya.

Ye Xuan then said, “Alright, we have enough personnel for this mission. Everyone can go back to practice. Besides, with such a large China, humans are facing significant crises, and there are plenty of mission opportunities.”

Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the crowd left somewhat disappointed, while Ye Xuan said, “Alright, let’s prepare to set off. Saving people is urgent, and we cannot afford any delays.”

Everyone responded in unison.

Just then, a voice called out, “Wait!”

Ye Xuan looked over to see a tall man striding towards them, carrying a large black coffin on his right shoulder.

Qin Heng was originally tall, but after being busy in the kitchen, he looked like a butcher, rugged and tough. However, compared to the man before him, Qin Heng’s stature and demeanor were completely overshadowed.

In the presence of the Coffin Bearer, Qin Heng appeared like a cute little butcher, devoid of any imposing aura!

Ye Xuan gazed at the tall man and asked, “What’s the matter?”

At that moment, the man said, “I want to participate in this mission.”

Initially, Ye Xuan felt they had enough people, but seeing the man’s imposing demeanor and the black coffin he carried, he knew he was not ordinary.

He looked at the man solemnly and asked, “What is your ability?”

The stern-looking man stroked his black coffin and said slowly, “With this coffin of mine, I bury the heavens, the earth, and all living beings!”

Listening to this vague statement, Ye Xuan furrowed his brows. Burying the heavens, the earth, and all living beings? It sounded very grand, but what exactly was his ability?

Thinking this, Ye Xuan asked again, “So, how do you bury the heavens, the earth, and all living beings? What abilities does your coffin possess?”

The stern man continued, “With this black coffin of mine, any mutated beast that enters it will turn into blood within ten seconds, destined to die without fail!”

As he spoke, he opened the lid of the black coffin.

Inside the coffin, a black mist pervaded, giving off a sense of deathly silence, as if anything that entered would be devoured by the coffin, truly terrifying.

Long Hanjie watched this scene, swallowed nervously, and said, “Ye Xuan, this guy seems quite formidable. Why not bring him along? With him by our side, I feel much safer.”

Long Hanjie had a feeling that even if he entered the black coffin, he might not be able to withstand it. The feeling inside the black coffin was like a place of certain death, truly terrifying.

Upon hearing Long Hanjie’s words, the stern man’s face also revealed a hint of pride. Whoever entered his black coffin would meet certain death!

At this moment, Ye Xuan’s expression also turned serious. From the black coffin, he sensed a similar aura to that of the Luxian Sword. Although not as terrifying, with this aura alone, any living creature sucked into the black coffin would indeed face a life-threatening situation.
