Chapter 1523: Two Choices

~8 min read 1,457 words

Not long after Su Xiao entered the witch's bedroom, he heard fighting sounds from outside the room. Hearing this sound, the witch, whose neck was held by the Checking Zhan Long Shan, "breathed a sigh of relief."

In less than a minute, Amu walked into the room carrying a semi-conscious boy, blood dripping from the frost-surging battle hammer.

The boy's body was twitching unconsciously, red light flickered in Amu's eyes, and its large hand exerted force.

Crack!

After the boy twitched once, his body went limp. This was because his neck had been snapped by Amu. Dense cutting marks could be seen on Amu's chest, but its defense was too strong, and the attacker couldn't hurt the core array in its body at all.

Amu's way of dealing with enemies was very simple: while ignoring the enemy's attacks, it would fiercely hammer the enemy with the battle hammer in its hand. As long as it grazed the enemy once, they would be affected by that disgusting deceleration ability. Lower speed meant it was easier to be hit by Amu, and the deceleration effect would become stronger and stronger, thus forming a vicious cycle.

"The boy sword saint of Kas City... so weak."

The witch was very disappointed. This boy was not her subordinate, but an attendant sent by the neighboring city-state to protect her safety. Judging from the current situation, this boy "sword saint" was already dead cold.

With a bang, Amu threw the boy's corpse on the ground and picked up a wooden carving craft for an appetizer, eating it exceptionally sweetly.

Looking at Amu, who chewed up the half-person-high wooden carving in a few bites, the witch, who was crouching on the bed holding her head, changed to a kneeling posture, her desire to survive very strong.

"Then, let's begin."

Su Xiao took out a metal collar and began to adjust it.

"What... is this?"

The witch swallowed her saliva. She instinctively felt that what Su Xiao was holding was not a good thing.

"An object that helps with friendly communication."

As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, the 【Endless Darkness】 collar opened, and a circle of blue indicator lights on it lit up.

"As a civilized race, can our negotiation method be more civilized?"

The witch swallowed her saliva. Su Xiao's intrusion could be called a "disaster from heaven". She was in the middle of exploring herself when she was suddenly interrupted. Judging from the current situation, the intruder was going to do some strange things to her.

"Can."

Su Xiao put away 【Endless Darkness】, and the Checking Zhan Long Shan was also sheathed. The witch kneeling on the bed breathed a sigh of relief.

Bubu Wang jumped in from the window. It leaped behind the witch in a few steps to prevent her from doing any small tricks.

"This gentleman, may I ask if you are here to rob property or plot something?"

The witch asked this question in a very natural tone, which showed how chaotic the laws of this world were.

"Looking for you to ask about some things."

"Just that simple?"

The witch looked at Su Xiao in surprise. She even had the psychological preparation of being pressed on the bed for forced 'hehehe'. Judging from the current situation, things seemed simpler than she imagined.

"Where is the Land of Death?"

As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, the witch's face changed. She was afraid, fear from the bottom of her heart.

"I, I don't know."

A clumsy lie. It was clear that this witch knew something about the Land of Death, which was the location of the Blade Demon Sealing Device.

The witch's eyes began to dodge. Looking at her expression, she seemed not to want to hide it, but was afraid of something.

"Is that so? Then forget it."

"No."

The witch blocked her hands in front of her chest, her expression exceptionally tangled. It could be said that this witch was the weakest kind of all witches, the old, weak, sick, and disabled among the weak chickens.

"I..."

The witch struggled with her thoughts for a while, and finally let out a long sigh.

"My name is Joan Isaiah, a white witch, a life witch, plant type. As you can see, my ability is not suitable for fighting, but it can save many people..."

After Isaiah's preliminary introduction, Su Xiao roughly understood her situation. Isaiah was a prophetic white witch, although her ability had nothing to do with prophecy, so white witches were collectively referred to as prophetic.

Isaiah's ability was very special. She could control plant growth. This ability seemed suitable for fighting, somewhat like Senju Hashirama, but in fact, it was not. She could only assist plant growth and could not catalyze it quickly, but her ability range was very wide. The fields outside this city were all within her range.

This ability to increase crop yields was very strong in this world with backward technology. She didn't have to worry about other kingdoms around her attacking her territory at all. Every autumn, she would provide food to more than a dozen surrounding cities for free. As a thank you, the "Madegao Gathering Place" became a neutral territory.

In Isaiah's words, her own ability supported more than a dozen surrounding cities. Unfortunately, her combat power was very weak. On this chaotic continent, it was already the limit for her to develop her forces to this extent.

Originally, the kings and lords around wanted to send people to protect Isaiah, but Isaiah refused directly. She knew clearly in her heart that if she accepted these people's protection, she would become an affiliate, so she had always wanted to cultivate her own power. The boy who was snapped to death by Amu was a thug hired by Isaiah, who was somewhat famous in the neighboring city. Judging from the current situation, it seemed to be a false reputation.

Su Xiao certainly wouldn't believe Isaiah's one-sided words. After he used the Apostle's Eye to detect the opponent's data, although there was a slight deviation, Isaiah's ability was basically the same as what she described.

Su Xiao was still strange before. The previous witch wanted notice was clearly wicked and vicious, but when it came to Isaiah, the painting style changed. This imperial sister, who looked like a peach, was not only cowardly but also had a normal personality. The initial arrogance was also a disguise.

Isaiah was certainly cowardly. She was the "shame" among witches. Some black witches almost fainted with anger when they heard she was farming, and some black witches even wanted to come and kill her so she wouldn't continue to lose face for witches. But after these black witches came, they left on the same day and didn't kill Isaiah.

No matter how bizarre Isaiah's approach was, she found a way to survive on this chaotic continent and lived very comfortably.

While Isaiah was narrating her "sad history", Su Xiao interrupted her. Such a bizarre witch was rare, and Su Xiao was prepared to understand the abilities of other witches through her and find clues to the Land of Death.

"Two choices. One, be thrown down from here."

While Su Xiao was speaking, Amu pushed open the window. At this time, the rain had slowed down, and the cool night wind blew into the room.

"I choose the second one."

Isaiah's tone was very certain.

"Tell me the location of the Land of Death."

"Er~"

Isaiah's expression was coy, her eyes like silk.

"This gentleman, don't be so rude, I'm just... wait, let me go, help! Woo~"

Half a minute later, Isaiah was hung upside down from the roof by Amu with a bed sheet. Amu held the frost battle hammer with both hands, posing in a hammer-swinging posture. As long as Su Xiao gave an order, Amu would hammer Isaiah to pieces. Amu didn't care how beautiful her appearance was.

"3, 2..."

Following Su Xiao's countdown, the muscles on Amu's arms bulged. Through preliminary contact, Su Xiao basically understood this woman's personality: she was typically hard-headed and not soft-hearted.

"Isa knows where the Land of Death is!"

With a whoosh, the frost battle hammer stopped in front of Isaiah.

"Isa?"

"Yes, Black Witch Isa, my good friend."

Isaiah had no guilt when betraying her friend. From beginning to end, Su Xiao didn't prepare to use 【Endless Darkness】 on her. This equipment was very special, and its characteristic of being unable to be repaired meant that every time it was used, it needed to be carefully considered.

Or rather, after Su Xiao checked Isaiah's data, he didn't intend to do anything to her, provided she was willing to reveal information. ===== CHAPTER 1524 =====
