"Professor, is there any meaning in doing that kind of thing?"
Elizabeth appeared in a Private Space that looked like a manor; no, it should be called a Team Space.
She was wearing a purple evening gown, paired with long, curly green hair, and her temperament was quite extraordinary, while the Professor still wore black-rimmed glasses, sitting by the fountain in the center of the space drinking tea.
Liu Qi took off his bamboo hat, revealing a square face.
The three of them had persisted in the Demon Slayer World until the 30th day ended, pushing the completion progress of the Main Mission to the S- level; this kind of harvest was something Liu Qi and Elizabeth had never obtained before.
The three of them recognized each other's abilities and temperaments, so they simply reformed their team.
At this moment, Elizabeth asked the Professor, guessing that perhaps her former teammate, Vincent, had already been killed by that beast named "Tao Baibai."
Although there was no enmity, Elizabeth could still recall the sense of oppression she felt every moment when she was with Tao Baibai; she did not want to have much contact with that kind of person.
The Professor shook his head; he knew very well that the difficulty of his Special Trial was very high, and if it weren't for the existence of someone as rule-breaking as Tao Baibai, it would not have been easy to barely complete it, let alone be as smooth as it was now.
He owed Tao Baibai a favor.
Furthermore.
"I am not trying to win him over, it is just that in this space, the further you go, the more Monsters you encounter; being on good terms with one of them as early as possible is better than facing another predator in the future."
Liu Qi did not speak, only wiping his blade; he had always been confident in his own combat power, but this time, seeing a guy like Tao Baibai still gave him a sense of urgency.
Elizabeth sat down; she was very tall, and the Professor guessed that Elizabeth might be a petite woman in reality, which was why she deliberately made her Avatar look like this.
Avatars and codenames are two things that can very well reveal a Reincarnator's personality and purpose; he felt this more and more. Just like Liu Qi, this kind of extremely simple codename with a bit of an old-fashioned flavor made the Professor guess that the other party was not young in reality and might be someone from a family that inherited ancient martial arts techniques.
As for Tao Baibai... the Professor shook his head; for such an Outlier, he probably only chose the codename because he obtained that piece of clothing belonging to Tao Baibai. The mind of an Outlier is the hardest to grasp.
"You mean, even if Tao Baibai is targeted by that 【Moon Demon】 now, he will not die?"
【Moon Demon】 is a high-level Reincarnator with quite a reputation in the East District; it is generally guessed that his combat power is at the upper level of the 【Strong】 rank, and he uses a sword style with great destructive power, possessing astonishing lethality in actual combat.
Together with 【Flame Demon】, 【Great Demon】, and the most mysterious 【Heart Demon】, he is crowned with the title of 【Four Demons】, and is recognized as the Elite Reincarnator closest to the 【Title-level】 in the East District.
And the 【Moon Demon】's rise was extremely fast; many Information Brokers and team strategists believed that this person must have some kind of special information channel, allowing him to hunt down other Reincarnators on a large scale in reality, thereby rising rapidly.
Some also felt that 【Moon Demon】 was the rumored 【Great Sin】 type Reincarnator.
But none of the news had been confirmed.
The Professor had an information source from 【Blue Sky】, and at the same time, she was a special sequence Reincarnator of the 【Priestess】; her ability to obtain Intelligence was top-tier, and she knew many secret pieces of information.
"Rumor has it that a 【Supreme Power】 was preparing to take the Four Demons under his command and have these people form a new team, but the arrogant Great Demon and the mysterious 【Heart Demon】 refused the invitation and were hunted down by the 【Supreme Power】."
"The emerging team of 【Moon Demon】 and 【Flame Demon】 also disbanded after one mission world; in that mission world, 【Flame Demon】's partner 【Demon Mountain】 fell, and after that, 【Moon Demon】 left the team and began to be wanted by 【Flame Demon】 and the 【Supreme Power】."
The Professor recounted this secret information, and Elizabeth frowned, only then coming back to her senses.
"You mean to say that the disbandment of that emerging team is related to Tao Baibai?"
A high-level Reincarnator like Moon Demon has no reason to have entanglements with low-level Reincarnators like them; the only explanation is that Tao Baibai did indeed offend the other party at some point.
The Professor did not continue speaking; he had spent a gem of nearly perfect quality to obtain relevant revelations for Tao Baibai, so he had already done his best and had no reason to continue doing more for him.
In the end, the Professor did not think a guy like Tao Baibai could join his team, and even if he did, the Professor did not think he could control such a fierce beast.
Bai Cangshu did not change his plan because of the Professor's warning; he glanced at other offers, most of which were Dimension Points or consumable items with no value, and there were many "newbies" asking what such a head could be used for, which completely lacked the possibility of a transaction.
He left the stall directly and came to the location of the 【Appraisal Office】.
Compared to the other few institutions, the storefront of the 【Appraisal Office】 was much smaller, with low eaves; Reincarnators could not even enter the interior and could only have things appraised from a window.
But the 【Appraisal Office】 had four windows; Bai Cangshu walked up, and he saw that the appraiser at his window was not a human, but a "fairy" no longer than thirty centimeters in length.
"Little guy, take out your things; I hope it's not some inferior item, I have already seen too much junk today..."
Bai Cangshu would not have any emotions toward the remarks of these NPCs; he took out the prescription emitting a purple glow and handed it to this fairy.
"Oh?"
The fairy's nose twitched, and it flew around the ancient prescription a few times.
"I smell the scent of ancient mysteries, hmm... there is the aura of those ghost things." "To appraise this thing, you need to pay one C-rank Singularity and 4500 Dimension Points."
【Appraisal Master Lucia V is asking you for one C-rank Singularity and 4500 Dimension Points, do you pay?】
"Pay."
The fairy stretched out its hand, and starlight began to sprinkle down; subsequently, the power sealed behind this unreadable prescription finally began to manifest.
A brilliant purple glow suddenly lit up, and Bai Cangshu reached out to take it.
【You have obtained the item, Secret Treasure: Curse Blood Homology (Purple · Extreme)】
【Secret Treasure: Curse Blood Homology】
【Quality: Rare and Peerless (Extreme)】
【Description: An ancient secret treasure circulating somewhere in the Heian Period, when sorcery was at its peak, containing the power to allow humans to transcend Cursed Objects and become an Ultimate Lifeform.】
【Effect 1: Under the condition of obtaining all materials, by paying 2 B-rank Singularities and 12000 Dimension Points, you can purify your own bloodline, obtain the Human Species · Perfect Purification bloodline, and gain traits such as High-speed Regeneration, Advanced Strength, and Medium Immortality.】
【Effect 2: Under the condition of obtaining partial materials, by paying 1 B-rank Singularity and 6000 Dimension Points, you can change your bloodline to become a Ghost (Dark Species, Native Species), and gain traits such as High-speed Regeneration, Advanced Strength, Medium Immortality, and Weak Light.】
!
【Effect 3: Without materials, you can pay 2 C-rank Singularities and 3000 Dimension Points to fuse this into yourself and randomly obtain a certain Tese.】
"Lucky kid, even I have only seen this thing a few times."
The tiny fairy sat cross-legged in the air, its tone sounding old and pedantic, but it could be heard that the thing Bai Cangshu obtained was indeed a rare treasure.
Bai Cangshu checked this secret treasure and could also see a series of required materials: Three-Immortal Spear Grass, Feather-Leaf Ghost Lantern, Tomorrow Leaf...
Among the long list of materials, Bai Cangshu currently only had the 【Blue Spider Lily】 in his Backpack, which Kibutsuji Muzan had exhausted a thousand years trying to find.
He put away the prescription and went non-stop to the 【Training Institute】.
The NPC of the 【Training Institute】 was a bald, muscular man who looked very philosophical, with bronze-colored skin and bulging muscles.
【After entering the Training Institute, time in the public area will no longer be consumed, but 50 basic Dimension Points will be consumed every minute inside the Training Institute, and opening special facilities will incur additional fees; do you wish to enter?】
The exterior of the 【Training Institute】 was quite cyberpunk, full of neon lights, but upon entering the interior, it was an incomparably huge gym style, with mirrors all around, and the floor was made of white jade-like tiles, feeling warm to the touch.
As soon as Bai Cangshu stepped into this space, he immediately felt his body grow heavy, and even his heartbeat became a bit more laborious.
【Gravity Modification: 1.5x (can be actively adjusted up to a maximum of 3x)】
【Oxygen Density: 0.75x (can be adjusted in the 0.5-3x range)】
【Extreme Environment Settings: Mu (can be selected from environments such as waterfalls, lake centers, seabeds, volcanoes, etc.)】
……
Looking at the series of prompts appearing on the panel, Bai Cangshu began to realize what kind of place this 【Training Institute】 really was.
It was completely possible to customize various elements including gravity, oxygen content, and even extreme environments, and all kinds of ordinary equipment could appear with just a thought.
This was the most basic 【Training Institute】 setup that allowed Reincarnators to train their basic attributes.
As for various specializations, Reincarnators could also purchase relevant facilities according to their needs, and could even invite sparring NPCs.
Using it for the first time, Bai Cangshu directly manifested numerous pieces of equipment and began to push himself to the limit; he specifically took off the 【Tao Baibai's Pink Robe】.
At this moment, Bai Cangshu's four basic attributes were: Strength 13, Agility 15, Constitution 13, Spirit 13.
"Benefiting" from the space's two distributions, Bai Cangshu's attributes were currently quite balanced; even without equipment, he had reached nearly three times the quality of an ordinary person in every aspect.
However, the body is inherently interconnected; strength, agility, and Constitution influence each other. The faster the speed, the greater the strength that can be exerted; conversely, the greater the strength, the faster the punches that can be thrown. A human like Bai Cangshu with triple the attributes of an ordinary person has an actual combat power that far exceeds that of an ordinary person by an unknown number of times.
At the very least, he could jump down from the seventh floor at this moment without a scratch, and at full speed without using abilities, he could run a hundred meters in under seven seconds, which was already a completely Superhuman attribute.
"It's still not enough..."
Ever since Bai Cangshu learned about so-called attribute Extreme Value and the single-attribute 【Strongest】 from the professor, he had been curious about what would happen if all four of his attributes reached the Extreme Value.
If all four of his attributes were on par with the Strongest, then he... what would he be?!
