Chapter 2069
Thoughts raced through Su Xiao's mind. According to his understanding, the witch was most likely still a Fifth Tier contractor, with a small probability of having been promoted to the Sixth Tier.
And for a contractor of this tier, the possibility of knowing about his previous assassination was minimal, but considering the witch's status as a brigade member, it wasn't impossible.
The brigade leader's tier was mysteriously high. Su Xiao even suspected that this guy was in the top tier, otherwise, he wouldn't have created an organization like the brigade.
If this was the case, it wasn't impossible for the witch to learn about this through the brigade leader. As for whether the brigade hired someone to assassinate him, or if it was done by a brigade member, Su Xiao felt this was unlikely.
The assassin clearly didn't understand the Reincarnation Paradise, otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to assassinate at that timing.
"Not needed for now, I have already received news from the Void side."
"Oh~"
The witch looked calm, but in reality, she was a bit disappointed. She really wanted to get this bloodline-type item. For a new contractor, this thing was a priceless treasure. The witch wanted to get a "part-time worker."
Although the witch covered it up well, Su Xiao determined one thing: the person who assassinated him came from the Void, most likely from the Arcane Eternal Star side.
"You wouldn't be, trying to get information from me, right?"
The witch looked at Su Xiao with burning eyes, those pitch-black eyes like two black gems.
"..."
"Sure enough."
The witch's speaking speed returned to normal for the first time. Although her face was smiling like a flower, she cursed "p" in her heart.
"You old schemers, hmph~"
Leaving this sentence, the witch left. Not long after walking, she contacted someone through a special team channel.
Witch: "The news has been delivered, Leader. If there was more information, I could have gotten a very good item, unfortunately~"
Witch: "Leader? Are you there?"
Witch: "Leader, reward."
Seeing the equipment in the mail, the witch's mood improved a lot.
Witch: "Thank you, Leader. By the way, Leader, Left-Handed went crazy, killing people crazily in a Third Tier world recently, at least 00 contractors died. He is already half a rule-breaker, what should we do?"
Leader: "Kill."
Witch: "Leader, travel expenses, travel expenses."
The witch smiled more charmingly. The brigade believed in the regulation of absolute freedom, but there was an iron rule: absolutely must not become a rule-breaker, otherwise, they would definitely die.
"I hate old schemers."
The witch walked away slowly. It could be said that the witch who wasn't angered was the easiest person to get along with in the brigade, an intellectual beauty.
But if she was angered, she would abandon everything to fight until the enemy died or she died. There was no other result.
Su Xiao, who successfully sold the two scrolls, left the trading market. After all, selling the other three items was too much of a matter of fate.
As for the information provided by the witch, Su Xiao was too interested, even if that information came from the brigade leader.
From the creation of an organization like the brigade, it could be seen that the brigade leader shouldn't have a large force under his command. He should be a solo powerhouse. As for the purpose of creating the brigade, this was unknown.
Compared to the brigade leader, Su Xiao had a more reliable and stable information channel, which was the Demon Race. As a top force in the Void, their information channel could be compared to the Arcane Eternal Star, Feather Race, etc.
Moreover, to get information from the Demon Race side, Su Xiao only needed to pay 20 grams of Black Maple branches. For him, this thing grown at home basically had no cost.
While thinking, Su Xiao had already arrived in front of Reed's forge. This time, he had multiple pieces of equipment damaged, among which the Night of the Wild Hunt and the Black King Armguard were severely damaged.
"Are you a pig!!"
A roar came from the forge. Just as Su Xiao pushed the door open, he saw Reed holding a "strange weapon," glaring at Ooo with anger.
Ooo, with green skin, less than one meter tall, and a thin body, was squatting in the corner, shivering.
"Wah~"
Ooo burst into tears.
"Hold it back!"
Reed stared, and Ooo immediately went silent.
Reed, who was almost angry to the point of cerebral hemorrhage, picked up a beer and drank it in big gulps. Seeing Su Xiao sitting in front of the furnace, he raised his chin at Su Xiao to say hello.
"Bullshit Silintis race, this also counts as one of the few races in the Void most skilled at manufacturing?"
Reed slapped the strange weapon in his hand on the table and sat opposite Su Xiao angrily.
"This blade is barely okay."
"This is a hook-thorn gun."
"..."
"What are you looking at! Continue forging! If you can't forge a gun shape, no food for three days."
Reed stared at Ooo again. Ooo sniffled, aggrieved, and came to the forge, picking up the hammer with a handle thicker than her arm.
"Reed, stop while you're ahead, this... you won't be able to keep it sooner or later."
The "stop while you're ahead" Su Xiao said wasn't Reed's bad attitude toward Ooo, but that Reed seemed to have started to accept Ooo.
"..."
Reed's hand holding the beer glass paused. He looked fierce when he scolded Ooo, but only when he cared would he be angry. If he didn't care, Reed wouldn't let Ooo forge at all, let alone get so angry.
"Whoever comes to grab, kill whoever."
Reed grinned coldly.
"Oh?"
"Besides, you won't watch me die, Su Xiao."
"Who knows."
"Hahaha, this is the Reincarnation Paradise. At most, just let her never go out."
Reed glanced at Ooo. Coincidentally, Ooo was holding the forging hammer and slacking off.
"Hey!"
Reed gave a roar, and Ooo trembled in shock, almost scaring her soul out. From the conversation between the two, it could be heard that Reed treated Ooo somewhat like a daughter. As the saying goes, fatherly love is like a mountain, and Reed seemed to be a volcano.
"You came this time..."
Before Reed finished speaking, he saw the Night of the Wild Hunt and the Black King Armguard that Su Xiao took out.
"Damaged to this extent..." Reed picked up the Night of the Wild Hunt, which was almost in strips, thought for a moment and said: "Can consider reshaping."
Su Xiao removed most of his equipment and left a pile of materials, letting Reed reshape the Night of the Wild Hunt. As for the specific matters, Reed was more professional. At this time, pointing fingers would only make people feel annoyed.
"The specific tendency of this equipment..."
Reed picked up the Night of the Wild Hunt.
"Just keep the first effect, everything else is decided by you."
Hearing Su Xiao's words, Reed nodded and said:
"Hmm, come pick it up tomorrow."
Leaving Reed's place, Su Xiao headed straight for his exclusive room. The trivial matters were all handled. After that, he had to improve his own abilities and exchange for overlord-level equipment.
Half an hour later, Su Xiao sat on the bed in his exclusive room. Bubu Wang, Baha, and Amu had teamed up to roam, while Bernie was still participating in the auction. That was her hobby.
Only Su Xiao was left in the exclusive room. He took out 0 Soul Crystals (Complete) from his storage space. This was his harvest from slaughtering a world.
Su Xiao chose to improve. 0 Soul Crystals all exploded. Su Xiao's eyes were pitch-black. After a long time, a faint light appeared.
Black Maple leaves rustled. An old man sat under a tall Black Maple tree. The old man's entire eyes were pitch-black.
Su Xiao recognized this old man. The other party was Marvin · Waltz's master, a fierce-to-the-extreme Law-Extinguishing practitioner. This old man used himself as a container to carry the Blade Demon energy and completely devoured the Blade Demon energy.
"You brat."
The old man frowned, staring at Su Xiao as if guarding against a thief. And on the trunk of the Black Maple tree behind the old man, a few finger marks could be faintly seen, as well as a large piece of trunk that had been torn off.
Planting a Black Maple tree was by no means an easy task. Su Xiao could successfully cultivate one, first because the Black Maple tree behind the old man was old enough, second because of the environment provided by the Reincarnation Paradise, and third because of luck.
Before Su Xiao could step forward, the old Law-Extinguishing practitioner had already raised his hand, and long blades made of Soul Crystals slashed toward Su Xiao.
The long blades didn't slash Su Xiao, but went directly into his body.
Determining that Su Xiao was teleported away, the old Law-Extinguishing practitioner pressed on the broken part of the Black Maple tree with a pained face. Although he deliberately gave Su Xiao a piece of Black Maple tree last time, he didn't expect Su Xiao to tear off a large piece directly from the trunk.
"Are Law-Extinguishing practitioners in their youth all bandits?"
The old Law-Extinguishing practitioner sighed. The surrounding space collapsed. He only had a wisp of remnant soul left, and the grievances and past of the past were no longer important.
