Chapter 1539: Feast

Su Xiao had three purposes for hunting witches: first, to improve his witch hunter level. After reaching Red Tier (third level, top level), he could read confidential intelligence to find clues related to the "Mo" character. Second, to obtain the Source of Pioneering + treasure chest. Third, to obtain Holy Healing Church reputation. After reaching Black Tier (second level) hunter, he could exchange items in the Holy Healing Church's faction shop, which was also a large amount of profit.

Three birds with one stone, why not? Moreover, Su Xiao would stay on the Dark Crow Continent for a long time. Without sufficient intelligence preparation in the early stage, it was almost impossible to know about the Blade Demon sealing device.

It was bumpy to travel in the carriage, and the speed was not very fast, but Su Xiao would engage in high-intensity combat for a period of time, so he must have sufficient time to rest.

After a bumpy journey, it was noon the next day when Su Xiao arrived at the Fenlu human settlement. This time the target was Feast Witch Keith.

According to the Holy Healing Church's intelligence, Keith was a third-stage witch with a bounty of 128 gold coins, belonging to the curse system.

This was Su Xiao's first contact with a curse-system witch. This type of witch was the most bizarre. Flame Explosion Witch Isa died at the hands of a curse-system witch, and her miserable death was still vivid in his mind.

Melodie pushed open the carriage door. She had changed into a cool backless outfit, her curves exquisite.

"The Fenlu human settlement is right ahead. Do we need to notify that White Witch lord?"

With the temptation of gold coins, Melodie had already thrown herself into the work of a witch hunter's assistant.

"No need. How much do you know about Feast Witch Keith?"

"Not much. She is an old woman. Of course, in the eyes of most people, her appearance can be called absolutely beautiful. This is the natural advantage of a curse-system witch."

There was some envy in Melodie's tone. A witch's lifespan is 2 to 3 times that of an ordinary person. Most witches can maintain a young appearance in the first half of their lives. When their age exceeds a certain limit, they start to age rapidly.

If the difficulty of hunting a witch is 10, then 60% of the difficulty lies in finding the witch. They are basically no different from ordinary women unless in close contact.

Su Xiao jumped off the carriage. He took a shotgun from the interlayer behind the carriage and carried several potions of different colors.

"Just these? If your first shot misses, you can only deal with the witch with your bare hands."

Obviously, Melodie is not familiar with Su Xiao's combat style; he carries this gun simply to save ammunition for D·Assassination.

Su Xiao didn't speak. He left Amu to watch the carriage and took Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang to walk toward the "Fenlu human settlement." It was interesting to say that the White Witch lord who governed the Fenlu settlement was the big shot Melodie wanted to impersonate. That White Witch had made great contributions to the Holy Healing Church, so she obtained a legal territory in the Central Plains region. The settlements ruled by the likes of Isa were not legal and could be wiped out at any time.

Ten minutes later, Su Xiao arrived near the Fenlu settlement. Unexpectedly, the city wall here was not tall, at most a few meters high, but the equipment on the city wall was very advanced.

The city gate of the Fenlu settlement was wide open. Now that Su Xiao had the identity of a witch hunter, he entered the city easily. Not only that, anyone who dared to disclose that a witch hunter had entered the city would be a capital crime.

Just entering the city, Su Xiao smelled a faint burnt smell. The Apostle's Eye floated into mid-air and started indiscriminate detection.

"Xiang Bubu, you are responsible for this area."

At the edge of the city wall, Su Xiao drew a sketch on the ground with a branch. He drew a circle on the sketch, indicating the area Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was responsible for.

"Melodie, use your incarnation to change into a flying creature, preferably an eagle or sparrow. You are responsible for this area."

"My name is Melodie."

"Oh."

Just as Su Xiao finished speaking, an invisible incarnation appeared behind Melodie. Her incarnation had no fixed form; this was caused by her ability.

The incarnation twisted, forming more than a dozen sparrows. Seeing these sparrows, for some reason, Su Xiao thought of the large flock of crows he saw when he first entered the world. This made him think that perhaps Dark Crow was not the strongest elemental system.

Melodie took a deep breath, purple light flashing in her eyes, and those dozen sparrows flapped their wings and flew far away.

Su Xiao held a tablet computer. He was observing the images fed back by the Apostle's Eye.

Inside the Fenlu settlement, inside a mushroom-shaped building.

"What... creature is this?"

In a laboratory that was not luxurious but piled with items, a witch in pajamas and a lazy expression sat up. She picked up a transparent crystal on the table.

With a crack, the crystal exploded into dust, and a scene appeared out of thin air.

"A White Tier witch hunter? Actually daring to come alone to hunt the Feast. What a... reckless young man."

Just as the pajama witch was about to disperse the image in front of her, Su Xiao, who was holding the tablet computer in the image, turned his head. A moment later, Su Xiao looked away.

The image slowly dissipated, and the soup spoon in the pajama witch's hand fell. In the few seconds just now, she felt as if she was looking at that White Tier witch hunter.

At the same time, Su Xiao's hand touched the screen of the tablet computer. An image froze, zoomed in, and the resolution was analyzed.

"Xiang Bubu, go near the 297.86.37 coordinate."

Su Xiao pressed the earphone on his ear, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's bark came.

Half an hour later, Su Xiao put away the tablet computer.

"Let's go."

"Eh?"

Melodie looked at Su Xiao in confusion. Su Xiao didn't answer her confusion, just walked toward the interior of the city. Soon, he arrived near an abandoned warehouse.

"Wait here."

Su Xiao took off the shotgun on his back. The diameter of this thing was at least five centimeters thick. With one shot, hundreds of diamond fragments would spray out.

Five minutes after Su Xiao entered the warehouse.

Boom!

A loud noise came from underground, followed by dead silence.

With a bang, the wooden door of the warehouse was knocked open. Melodie outside the door was frightened and took several steps back. A woman in rags, with her right arm blown off at the root, rushed out of the warehouse. There was only one emotion in her eyes: fear.

Sizzle~

The metal wires contracted, and the woman in rags fell to the ground. With the contraction of the metal wires, the woman was quickly pulled back into the warehouse.

"Save me..."

The woman raised her only arm. She was asking Melodie not far away for help.

Melodie took a few more steps back. She recognized who this woman was; it was Feast Witch Keith.

Pfft!

After the sound of blood splashing, the warehouse became completely quiet. The arm of the woman exposed outside the warehouse door quickly withered, the skin lost its luster, and finally turned into skin and bones. This was the true appearance of Feast Witch Keith.

Su Xiao walked out of the warehouse and took off the gas mask on his face. There was a large space under the warehouse. For ordinary people, that was hell's kitchen. Even a mature adult entering there would be frightened to the point of collapsing to the ground.

【You have killed Keith.】

【You obtained 0.4% of the Source of Pioneering, for a total of 1.2% obtained.】

【Your talent "Soul Eater" has been activated, permanently increasing Mana by 25 points. The current maximum Mana limit is 6541 points.】

【You obtained 60 Holy Healing Church reputation points. Current reputation: 60/100 (White Tier).】

【Special Reputation Mission: Witch Hunter (3/10).】

【Hint: The hunter can choose one of the following rewards.】

a. Treasure Chest: Gold (This treasure chest has received an additional bonus; treasure chest rewards are increased by 50%)

b. Curse Resistance (Unique to this world): Resistance to curses, erosive abilities, etc., of curse-system witches is increased by 40%, and there is a lower probability of exemption.

Hint: This ability is only effective in the Dark Crow world. After leaving the Dark Crow world, it will be converted into abnormal attribute resistance at a certain ratio.

A choice between a gold treasure chest and curse resistance. According to Su Xiao's assessment, third-stage witches would drop gold to legendary-level treasure chests. Of course, legendary-level treasure chests are relatively watery. Considering the 50% bonus, it should belong to a middle-to-lower legendary-level treasure chest. Fourth-stage witches can drop middle-to-upper legendary-level treasure chests. As for fifth-stage, that is absolutely the top of legendary-level, or even a higher-level treasure chest. ===== CHAPTER 1540 =====
