Chapter 1998: Pale Red Warning

Pale green light spots drifted around Su Xiao, occasionally merging into his body, which caused his injuries to recover at an extremely fast speed.

【Recovery complete, consumed a total of 86,520 Paradise Coins.】

Su Xiao slowly descended. The sharp pain and stuffiness in his chest disappeared, giving him the feeling of being alive again. This was not an exaggeration; when the battle with the Moon God ended, Su Xiao had once thought he would die during the teleportation due to his severe injuries.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Baha's injuries also recovered. Baha lay directly on the ground, not wanting to move at all.

"How is the core?"

Su Xiao spoke. Hearing this 'sound of nightmares', Baha shuddered.

"Excellent."

Baha's tone was firm and decisive, but its words made Su Xiao certain that the state of the core probably wasn't good.

Carrying Baha, Su Xiao walked toward the alchemy laboratory. At this moment, Baha no longer had the bravery it had just shown.

Two hours later, Su Xiao walked out of the alchemy laboratory. Baha had lain on the maintenance table... the operating table for a while before coming back to its senses. It had realized one thing: Su Xiao's repairs were 'more terrifying' than fighting the Moon God.

The fully recovered Baha took Amu out to roam, to soothe Amu's miserable mood after swimming for an entire world.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Benny were staring at each other, looking like a cat-and-dog fight could break out at any moment. Their conflict today was nearly unsolvable: the flavor of tofu pudding.

Su Xiao left the exclusive room and headed straight for the Attribute Enhancement Hall. Not to mention that physical attributes were the cornerstone of all abilities, the prerequisites for 'Soul Thread' alone made Su Xiao urgently need to improve various abilities.

Su Xiao had used a soul-type binding ability once; when dealing with the Black King, he had used a one-time item called 【Soul Shackles】.

The strength of 【Soul Shackles】 had surprised Su Xiao; the Black King was completely unable to break free from the soul chains, and thus took an Apollo at point-blank range.

And Soul Thread was definitely tougher than 【Soul Shackles】. A control effect of 10-600 seconds was already worthy of being called despair.

Unfortunately, Su Xiao was still some distance away from mastering Soul Thread.

【Welcome to the High-Tier Enhancement Chamber. Your naked real attributes are as follows...】

Su Xiao closed the data and directly allocated 13 Real Attribute Points. Although he needed to raise Intelligence to 150 points, the Shadow of the Law-Breaker had main attribute restrictions; main attributes could not differ by more than 3 points in a naked state, so Su Xiao continued to choose balanced development.

In the end, his allocation was: Strength +1, Agility +4, Stamina +4, Intelligence +4. The Real Attribute Points were exhausted; these things were hard to obtain and fast to squander.

The attribute enhancement chamber began to operate. Compared to the massive improvement last time, the improvement this time was much smaller.

Half an hour later, Su Xiao wiped the sweat from his face. He was adapting faster and faster to his rapidly strengthening body.

Su Xiao checked his naked attribute data, not to see how much the four main attributes had improved, but to check the situation of his Charm attribute.

Real Strength: 124 points

Real Agility: 124 points

Real Stamina: 124 points

Real Intelligence: 124 points

Real Charm: 1 point

Seeing that 1 point of Charm attribute was still there, Su Xiao was very relieved. This 1 point of Charm attribute was mysteriously resilient, or rather, unless affected by an enemy's ability, would the attribute not drop to a negative number?

Su Xiao quickly dismissed this thought, because that 1 point of Charm attribute had already turned into pale red text.

Because Su Xiao's Charm attribute frequently dropped, he had extremely rich experience in this regard. Attribute loss was not a sudden event, but had many subtle hints, the most obvious of which was the color of the attribute.

Pale red meant it had already begun to slide; normal red meant it was about to drop, so be careful; deep red meant it could drop at any time; as for blood red, give up struggling, it would definitely drop by 1 point in the near future.

It was pale red now, so it was relatively safe. After all, Su Xiao hadn't killed many people in the Zerg world or the Moon God world, or rather, he hadn't killed enemies with his own hands much.

Leaving the Attribute Enhancement Hall, Su Xiao habitually walked toward the trading market to take the opportunity to adapt to his strengthened body.

The bustling scene of the trading market was almost continuous throughout the day. Su Xiao took a lap and only saw a Legendary-grade helmet that was decent, but he couldn't possibly wear this thing; it would affect his senses. Those who were good at using long blades almost never wore head protection. Blade technique was about the body, heart, nature, and realization.

Blade technique was a common ability in the early stages, and almost anyone could practice it, but by the later stages, blade technique was a transcendent ability, and one of the most lethal types.

Even the requirements for blade technique were more demanding than other transcendent abilities. Transformation after transformation would block batch after batch of blade technique practitioners. Those who remained were basically blade technique powerhouses with explosive frontal lethality.

After strolling through the trading market a few more times, Su Xiao saw quite a few good things this time. There was an Epic-grade foot armor sold by a lone wolf that made Su Xiao feel like buying it, but unfortunately, he didn't have enough Paradise Coins, and the asking price was inflated.

Returning to the exclusive room, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Benny had reconciled. It wasn't that they had solved the problem fundamentally, but they had decided to change this meal to pickled fish.

Obviously, this was a bad idea from Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. Benny liked to eat fish but was afraid of spice. Now, she was sniffling from the spice, but the delicious food cooked by Xia made her unable to stop.

"Hoo~"

Benny lay flat on the carpet with her belly up. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang leaned over to look. Having just eaten spice, its snot was gradually dripping down, hanging in a string in front of Benny, about to drip, while Benny was closing her eyes, full of happiness after a full meal.

Su Xiao didn't look at the two of them, but sat cross-legged on the bed, preparing to open two treasure chests. One was Epic-grade, obtained after killing the Hawk Marquis's guard, and the other was a random treasure chest obtained from a hidden mission, which could yield items, equipment, skill scrolls, etc., of White to??? quality.

With the European Emperor status buff applied, Su Xiao opened the first Epic-grade treasure chest. Golden light appeared, it flashed! And it flashed for a full few seconds.

【You have opened the treasure chest: Epic-grade (40%).】
