Chapter 255

Su Xiao rode on the back of Bubuwang, and Bubuwang plunged headlong into the metal door.

"Take me with you."

Xia Luoke shouted. Su Xiao hesitated for a moment, then chose to grab Xia Luoke by the collar. At this moment, the little emperor had retreated to a very far distance for some reason.

Su Xiao didn't pay attention to the little emperor; he rode Bubuwang and moved quickly through the emergency exit.

This passage was straight, a ramp sloping upward.

Bubuwang had already activated the full-speed charge skill and would be able to rush out of this ramp before long.

Xia Luoke suddenly said urgently: "Bai Ye, you should have killed the little emperor. Without him, that monster cannot leave the underground."

"What do you mean?"

"The reason the royal family didn't dispose of that monster is that they have a certain method to control it, but the price is very heavy, which is why they kept it sealed underground all this time."

Su Xiao didn't say anything. He had already done something to the little emperor earlier and could dispose of him at any time.

Rumble.

A loud noise came from behind the passage, and a large amount of dust fell from above. The entire passage was full of cracks and could collapse at any time.

Bang.

A large stone fell in front, dust surged, and the stone nearly blocked the passage completely.

Click-clack, click-clack.

Spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the four walls of the passage. In less than twenty seconds, the entire passage would collapse.

"Xiang Bubu, hurry!"

Su Xiao urged loudly, and Bubuwang exerted all its strength to run wildly.

It was pitch black ahead, and Su Xiao faintly saw a stone wall about ten meters away.

A dead end? No, that was a stone slab. By the time they reached here, Su Xiao's perception had recovered.

Bubuwang rushed toward the stone wall. Just as Bubuwang was about to hit the stone wall, Su Xiao placed his hand on the hilt of Zhan Long Shan.

Several white lines flashed in the dark passage. Bubuwang crashed into the stone wall, and the stone wall shattered with a roar. The broken edges of the stones in mid-air were as smooth as mirrors.

Blinding light appeared. After being in a dark environment for a long time, suddenly seeing sunlight would cause irreversible damage to the eyes.

Su Xiao's stamina attribute was as high as 15 points, which was of course different from an ordinary person.

Although everything was white before his eyes, his pupils dilated rapidly, and after a few seconds, his vision returned to normal.

Air with a slight fragrance of plants was inhaled into his lungs, sunlight shone on his face, and a small bird was chirping on a tree branch not far away. He was in a forest more than ten kilometers outside the imperial capital.

With a rumble, the emergency exit behind him collapsed. Su Xiao successfully broke through. Now he only needed to set the coordinates to return to Samsara Paradise.

Just as Su Xiao was in a great mood, a sharp pain came from his chest, and a prompt from Samsara Paradise appeared.

【The Hunter has left the 'Bilumake Alchemy Test Site' range, and the V-type alchemy virus has been lifted.】

【The Hunter's duration within the 'V-type alchemy virus' was 6 minutes. The V-type alchemy virus is about to erupt. Please make preparations in advance.】

【Warning: V-type alchemy virus effect erupting!】

【Warning: V-type alchemy virus effect erupting!】

【Warning: V-type alchemy virus effect erupting!】

【Checking the Hunter's body resistance. Check complete. The V-type alchemy virus will cause 20% of the Hunter's maximum health in true damage every minute. Staying for more than 5 minutes triggers an instant-death effect.】

【Instant-death judgment in progress... Detected that the Hunter contains 'V-type alchemy virus】

【antibody, instant-death judgment failed.】

【The V-type alchemy virus has caused a total of 96% of the Hunter's maximum health in true damage. The Hunter has entered a near-death state.】

Su Xiao could no longer see the prompts from Reincarnation Paradise. He spat out a large mouthful of black blood, his vision went black, and there was a buzzing in his ears. He nearly fell off Bubuwang's back.

Su Xiao's consciousness began to blur, his vision was dark, and his sight was reduced to the width of a finger gap. At this critical moment, he relied on his willpower to drink a bottle of potion.

【Honor Resurrection Potion】 Effect: Restores 100% health after use.

The Honor Resurrection Potion had no taste. After Su Xiao drank it in one gulp, white light appeared on the surface of his body, and the internal organs eroded by the virus were quickly repaired. A gas invisible to the naked eye was expelled from his pores; that was the V-type alchemy virus.

This virus was terrifying. There was no struggle when poisoned; if the resistance was not high enough, an instant-death judgment would be triggered directly after being poisoned for a period of time.

Su Xiao was able to survive, thanks to the 'V-type alchemy virus resistance increased by 20%' he chose after killing those cave-dweller guards.

If Su Xiao had stayed in the core area for a few more minutes, he might not have had the chance to take the medicine at all and would have been judged for instant death directly.

Moreover, this virus did not belong to the category of magic damage, and his magic-immune constitution could not negate the damage.

"Hey, are you okay? Is it the V virus? I thought you had a way to deal with that kind of virus."

Xia Luoke looked at Su Xiao with concern, but a flash of imperceptible disappointment appeared in its eyes.

'How is this guy not dead?' This was Xia Luoke's true thought.

Su Xiao glanced at Xia Luoke, a gentle smile appearing on his face.

"You must be disappointed that I'm not dead."

"Ho, how could that be? We are... you."

Before Xia Luoke could finish speaking, Su Xiao had already grabbed Xia Luoke by the neck with one hand and lifted it into mid-air.

"Then what is that broken bottle in your hand? Don't say you were trying to save me; I only felt danger, a danger that made my spine chill."

Xia Luoke's steel arm was retracting into its sleeve, clutching a black medicine bottle.

"This is a self-defense measure, don't misunderstand."

Xia Luoke's expression was calm, and there was no sign of lying.

"Heh~, a self-defense measure. Having been away from human society for hundreds of years, aren't you underestimating humans a bit too much? Your eyes were glowing when you looked at Bubuwang just now, and they still are."

Sherlock had taken a fancy to Bubuwang, this biological Teigu.

Su Xiao snatched the black medicine bottle from Xia Luoke's hand, and Samsara Paradise prompted the function of this item.

Su Xiao threw the black medicine bottle far away, and it shattered upon hitting a tree.

Sss~.

A puff of blue smoke rose, and a sour, foul smell spread far away. A large pit was corroded into the tree in a very short time.

"Did you find out? It seems I underestimated my 'partner'. You can't kill me, otherwise, you will die too."

Xia Luoke pulled open its collar; there was a flat-looking bomb on its chest.

"Alchemical bomb, Sun God, with a blast radius of half a kilometer. When my body functions are destroyed, the bomb will explode."

Su Xiao glanced at the bomb on Xia Luoke's chest. This time the other party was not lying, which was also the reason he didn't directly cut off Xia Luoke's head.

He had a vague feeling just now that he couldn't kill Xia Luoke directly.

Su Xiao pulled off the cloth bag from Xia Luoke's back, put it into his storage space, and an object resembling a sea urchin appeared in his hand.

The sea urchin-like object was the size of a longan, covered in sharp spikes.

"What... what kind of monster is this?"

Xia Luoke could no longer remain calm and struggled violently in Su Xiao's hand.

Su Xiao grabbed Xia Luoke's jaw, forcibly pried its mouth open, and stuffed the sea urchin-like object into its mouth with force, using his index finger to push it down Xia Luoke's throat.

"Ugh~, you... bastard."

Xia Luoke's face was full of pain; the sea urchin-like object was stuck right in its throat.

Tick, tick, tick...

A rhythmic electronic sound came from Xia Luoke's throat; something was counting down.

"Don't you like bombs very much? I'll give you one."

Su Xiao threw Sherlock aside and immediately let Bubuwang run far away. There were still five minutes left.

Xia Luoke lay on the ground retching, trying to spit out the thing ticking in its throat.

"Ugh~."

Xia Luoke retched hard, but the surface of the sea urchin-like bomb was full of sharp spikes, firmly stuck in its throat. The more it retched, the deeper the spikes went.

Tick-tick-tick~.

The sound became more and more urgent. Xia Luoke tried to stuff a hand into its mouth.

Tick.

The sound disappeared, Xia Luoke's movements stopped, and it pulled its hand out of its mouth.

"I miscalculated. Are humans nowadays all this smart?"

Xia Luoke took a deep breath of fresh air.

"Is this the feeling of freedom? I hate humans."

Boom!

Xia Luoke's body was directly blown to pieces, and a mist of blood drifted up.

The flat-looking alchemical bomb flew in mid-air, the circuits on its surface glowing red, gradually shattering.

Thud!

A fire-red circle appeared, its volume expanding rapidly, wrapping a radius of half a kilometer in just two seconds.

As if the sun had fallen to the ground, the land and trees were all evaporated into gas by the high temperature.

This was the power of the alchemical bomb 'Sun God', terrifying to the extreme.
