Chapter 2088: Caesar is Panicked

,

Clang, clang...

The melodious hourly clock sound came. In the sewer, Su Xiao held the sheathed Dragon Flash with one hand. More than ten meters in front of him was a raging fire.

Checking the existing reputation, 529 points. The rats in the Bone Port sewer no longer dared to rush out. No matter what kind of potion Su Xiao used to lure them, they were clearly scared by the killing.

Su Xiao came to a giant rat corpse that was still relatively intact, extracted a small amount of cells, and tried to use Qing Gang Ying to devour these cells. Under normal circumstances, Qing Gang Ying could only devour energy.

Sizzle~

Blue electric arcs flashed, and the giant rat's cells quickly turned into ashes.

"This is..."

Su Xiao only wanted to try it, not expecting that there was indeed a harvest. These rats weren't mutated, but a certain energy combined with their cells, which caused them to be so huge.

Compared to the reason for the giant rat's gigantism, Su Xiao was more concerned about another thing. He lifted his right arm. The skin on the back of his entire hand, including part of his fingers, had turned pitch black, and this pitch black was spreading in an erosive manner.

If left alone, this pitch black would invade Su Xiao's body at a very slow speed. As for its origin, every time Su Xiao killed a giant rat, the pitch black on the skin of his hand would expand by a thread.

As for using Qing Gang Ying energy to devour it, it was completely possible, but the mana consumption was too high. The Qing Gang Ying energy converted by consuming 8000 mana points could probably devour a centimeter area of pitch black. It could devour it, which showed that the tier of Qing Gang Ying energy was higher than this kind of pitch black, but this kind of pitch black had a root, a very huge root.

Su Xiao exercised his right hand, and there was basically no impact. If he wasn't mistaken, this was the "darkness" mentioned by the Sorrowful Girl before. That sentence "I will help you dispel the darkness" wasn't encouragement, but something the Sorrowful Girl could indeed do.

The Sorrowful Girl also said that she wouldn't harm any living existence. This was also very worth pondering. In other words, in this world, harming living existences would be eroded by darkness, eventually turning into monsters?

Or perhaps, as the Sorrowful Girl who could clear "darkness," she herself couldn't accept darkness, otherwise she would lose the ability to clear darkness?

The side effects of potions, plus the erosion after killing living things, it was no wonder the wizards would go crazy.

"So that's how it is."

Su Xiao looked at the pile of burning rat corpses. He wasn't prepared to continue cleaning up rats; the efficiency was too slow. Coming here was just to verify some conjectures. This time, it could be said that the harvest was quite rich.

Su Xiao returned the same way, left the sewer, climbed up the iron ladder, and went straight to the Wizard Association in the Holy Silver District.

When Su Xiao returned to the Wizard Association, Caesar at the Wizard Association reception was busy.

"So fast?"

Caesar looked at Su Xiao with some surprise.

"I have no interest in helping the Wizard Association clean up rats anymore."

"!"

Caesar shuddered and subconsciously covered his pocket.

"Are you trying to..."

Caesar swallowed his saliva, and his heart suddenly felt a bit panicked.

"Your proposal to force an exchange for potion formulas with reputation isn't feasible, the risk is too high..."

"Wait, wait, the thing you are about to do has a higher risk! There are at least 200 Arcane Wizards here. We can't fight them at all. Even if we really leveled this place, the Wizard Association branches in various places will also issue a warrant for us."

Caesar looked at Su Xiao with full horror, while Su Xiao looked at Caesar with confusion.

"Did I say I wanted to level this place?"

"Eh~ that's true, but if it's you, don't say leveling the Wizard Association, even if you said you wanted to slaughter Heru City, I would feel you could do it."

Caesar nodded seriously.

"..."

Su Xiao was speechless for a while. From the perspective of external combat power, the Wizard Association should be the strongest armed group in this world, but their power was too quick to achieve, very likely that when dealing with certain existences, they wouldn't even have a chance to resist. Before going to clean up rats, Su Xiao verified this point in general.

"Caesar, the wizards' potions won't appear out of thin air. According to what you said, the demand for potions is very large, and the output is independent. Who concocted this thing?"

"Morn family."

Caesar let out a long breath in his heart. He was really afraid that Su Xiao would draw his sword and fight the Wizard Association hard.

"Where are they?"

"Right on the ninth floor upstairs. You wouldn't be trying to... The Morn family isn't easy to provoke either."

"Oh."

Su Xiao patted Xiang Bubu Wang's head. Xiang Bubu Wang understood, directly merged into the environment, lightly bumped into Su Xiao, letting Su Xiao see it.

Su Xiao took out a wireless headset, tossed one to Xiang Bubu Wang, and wore one himself.

Xiang Bubu Wang very skillfully took out a full set of monitoring equipment, walked out of the small door, and ran upstairs.

"Good, so skilled..."

Caesar was stunned. He looked at Su Xiao very seriously, seemingly re-recognizing this old friend.

"A group of wizards whose brains are unclear due to alien energy erosion, fighting to the death with them will only waste physical strength."

Su Xiao took out a tablet computer and tossed another wireless headset to Caesar, saying: "Tell Xiang Bubu, where is the exact location of the Morn family concocting potions."

Caesar leaned over, looked at the screen on the tablet computer, and began to guide Xiang Bubu Wang.

From the beginning, Su Xiao didn't plan to risk obtaining the potion formula. As for the method of obtaining reputation by concocting potions, it was indeed feasible and efficient.

According to Caesar, buying potions required spending silver coins, but drinking potions and the subsequent processes only required joining the Wizard Association to enjoy them for free. This was a regulation set by the Immortal Wizard·Dawn, and no wizard dared to violate it, including the Morn family. They were only responsible for concocting potions, and in the final analysis, they were just important members of the Wizard Association, at most counting as high-level personnel.

With the composition of the Wizard Association, as long as they didn't launch a large-scale attack here, the wizards couldn't unite. They were used to being scattered. If they didn't touch their own interests, wanting them to fight for their lives was completely impossible. Therefore, before, Su Xiao deduced one point: concocting and selling potions would only offend the concocter of the potions, rather than being hostile to the Wizard Association. Before, he went to clean up rats, one was to scout the terrain of Heru City to facilitate strategic retreat in a crisis, and the second was to figure out the attitude of the Wizard Association toward wizards and civilians.

The images in the tablet computer changed rapidly. A few minutes later, Xiang Bubu Wang arrived at the ninth floor of the Wizard Association, ignoring dozens of warning

Xiang Bubu Wang stopped in front of a metal door. There was an Ouroboros pattern on the metal door, and this emblem represented the Moen family.

Xiang Bubu Wang activated Holy Traveler, directly penetrating the wall and entering a pitch-black room.

Hum~

The night vision device activated. Xiang Bubu Wang looked around; this was a room of over 200 square meters, filled with rows of bookshelves, and there was a metal table in one corner with bottles and jars placed on it.

Xiang Bubu Wang was quite skilled at this kind of business. He didn't rummage through boxes and cabinets to search, because confidential items like potion formulas could not be stored in physical form. Xiang Bubu chose to wait.

After waiting for a full seven hours, the door was pushed open, and a figure in a gray robe walked into the room. His hand waved in front of him from time to time, as if he were shooing away mosquitoes that didn't exist.

After waiting for another half hour, the figure in the gray robe and hood sat in front of the metal table, took out several materials from the drawer of the metal table, and began to mix them.

Xiang Bubu Wang leaned close to the camera, while Su Xiao on the other side watched intently.

In less than a few minutes, a bottle of pure black potion was concocted.

"It's done, Xiang Bubu. The concoction of the potion is simpler than imagined. Even such clumsy techniques can concoct..."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Xiang Bubu Wang leisurely came to the wall and passed through it, while the figure in the gray robe didn't notice anything unusual at all.

Su Xiao put away the tablet computer and turned his gaze to Caesar.

"Can you get those materials?"

"Eh? Ah? Yes!"

Caesar looked at Su Xiao with a bewildered face. As cunning as he was, he was also stunned by the coordination between Su Xiao and Xiang Bubu Wang. He had a feeling that if he were hostile to Su Xiao, he would be thoroughly arranged, and he would die without even knowing how he died.
