Chapter 3755: Charm Judgment

~16 min read 3,129 words

Su Xiao sealed the three "Life Crystals" floating in mid-air into a container, and then threw this container to Caesar. Among the four "good teammates," Caesar was the most reliable to deliver this thing.

Even Su Xiao, a master of three techniques, could not perceive the hidden Caesar at close range. It should be known that the close-range perception of a melee technique master could definitely rank in the top three among all ability systems. Under such circumstances, he still couldn't perceive the hidden Caesar.

Later, they only needed to wait for Caesar to deliver these three "Life Crystals" to a certain place in the Wet Salt District, and then be discovered by the members of the Lightless Temple searching there. The subsequent events would naturally fall into place.

To avoid being clever but ending up with a loss, the ultimate backup for these three "Life Crystals" was naturally the fierce poison inside. The concealment level of this fierce poison was so high that even Su Xiao, as the setter, could not perceive any problems by sensing the fluctuations of the "Life Crystals."

The principle was that this was a kind of fierce poison with life characteristics. If normal life-characteristic primordial energy was a tonic, then this twisted life-characteristic poison was an extreme tonic that was out of control. No, this could no longer be considered a tonic, but an infinite proliferation.

All life characteristics, once they lose their critical value, are the most terrifying fierce poisons, just like the life fierce poison inside these three "Life Crystals."

In fact, the most exquisite point of this fierce poison was not its characteristic of "infinite proliferation." Suppose the primordial life force contained in the "Life Crystal" was 1 million points, then the "Life Fierce Poison" hidden within it only occupied 1 point of the whole.

But once the Four Giants of the Lightless Temple absorbed this "Life Crystal," this "Life Fierce Poison" with a content of only 1 point would assimilate and proliferate all the 1 million points of primordial life force in the surrounding area into "Life Fierce Poison" in a very short time.

This was also why Su Xiao was not worried that the "Life Crystal" would aid the enemy, because this thing would not bring any benefits. As for whether the enemy would discover the fierce poison inside the "Life Crystal."

This was not a question of finding a needle in a haystack, but finding a drop of seawater with a slightly deeper color in the ocean. The difficulty was imaginable.

Simply put, the moment before the Four Giants of the Lightless Temple swallowed the "Life Crystal," this thing was still a rare life-characteristic secret treasure, but after swallowing it, this thing would turn into a deadly fierce poison.

Think this was the end? Of course not. How could the layout of the Saint Flame Pharmacist be so simple? After the toxicity of the "Life Fierce Poison" erupted, the second reactant was natural elements. Simply put, the stronger the concentration of natural elements around the poisoned person, the more violently the life fierce poison would erupt. Don't forget, this was the Eternal Light World; there was no place where natural elements were more concentrated than here.

In addition to the above two characteristics, this life fierce poison also had a third characteristic, but whether this characteristic would be triggered remained to be practiced.

After understanding the characteristics of the "Life Fierce Poison," Zayas and Wood both had smiles on their faces, while their thoughts turned rapidly in their minds. Had they stabbed this scoundrel in the back recently? Thinking that there hadn't been any recently, their smiles carried a bit of relief.

This time going to the Wet Salt District, of course, Caesar wouldn't go alone; Su Xiao, Zayas, Wood, and the Dark Eater would also go together. Discovering three "Life Crystals" for no reason would inevitably arouse suspicion.

Conversely, if they were searching the Wet Salt District for the key to the Monarch's Treasure and inadvertently discovered a treasure vault containing three "Life Crystals," it would be easier for people to accept. And these three "Life Crystals," no matter how you looked at them, were naturally generated, and after being obtained by someone, they had been stored in this treasure vault.

As for where to find this treasure vault, Su Xiao had a first choice. He had previously obtained a treasure vault map from the Dark Lady. That Law-Breaker treasure vault was in the Wet Salt District. He had been busy before and had no time to look for it. Now it was just right to go there.

Su Xiao did not set off immediately, but took a bottle of potion from the hidden compartment of the workbench. This was formulated in the potion room when he returned to the Gray Sanctuary to check the 【Primordial Potion】 earlier.

As Su Xiao took out this potion with a strong dark characteristic, the Dark Eater's gaze was immediately attracted, but then he stopped paying attention, because he knew that in the "good teammate" team, there was never a gift without a reason.

"This time exploring the Scarlet Castle was my proposal. Except for you, everyone else had gains. We are cooperating, and the gains cannot be disproportionate to the contribution."

As Su Xiao spoke, he threw the 【Shadow Secret Medicine】 in his hand to the Dark Eater. The Dark Eater had just grasped the potion with one hand and couldn't let go. However, a conjecture that there might be a conspiracy made him want to decline the potion, but his hand suddenly stopped listening to control, pulled out the bottle stopper by itself, and then drank it down gulp by gulp.

The Dark Eater looked at the empty potion bottle in his hand, and his heart began to feel uneasy. His brain entered the highest speed of operation, speculating what was going on. However, his CPU almost burned out, and he didn't think of any conspiracy in it.

Actually, there was no conspiracy; it was mainly to prevent him from quitting the team because of this setback, especially since the subsequent enemies included the long-time great enemy, the Priest.

Why did the Dark Eater approach Su Xiao on the Wind Sea Continent? Because Su Xiao was a Law-Breaker? This was only one of the reasons. It was because the Priest wanted to steal the "Mark Fragment" from the Dark Eater, but couldn't confront the Dark Eater, who had the strength of an Absolute Strongman, so he came up with this countermeasure.

After the Dark Eater joined the "good teammate" team, under Su Xiao's explanation, the Dark Eater had already reacted to what was going on. He was holding a grudge in his heart, just waiting to find the Priest.

Ask, what kind of enemy is the Priest most unwilling to deal with? That is a blockhead like the Dark Eater. As long as the Dark Eater encounters the Priest and starts hunting him down, he won't listen to a single word of the Priest's deception, even if the Dark Eater has no possibility of truly killing the Priest, he can still hinder the Priest's plan.

In the last world progress, it seemed that he finally defeated the Priest, but don't forget, although the Priest lost everything, as a person with the Old God system ability, he had entered a coexistence stage with the Original Sin item · Golden Holy Grail. After a humanoid Old God could obtain a massive amount of pure divine blood, the result was imaginable.

Even if the Priest were to be promoted to Absolute Strongman now, and had not weak strength at the Absolute Strongman level, Su Xiao wouldn't feel the slightest surprise. The good news was that the Priest should not have completed the trial breakthrough yet, otherwise, the greetings from that side would have arrived long ago.

After describing to the Dark Eater that both sides had a common enemy and then giving him this bottle of potion, the Dark Eater, who had been worried all along, felt relieved and left after a while.

In the studio, only Su Xiao, Zayas, Wood, and Caesar remained. The four sat around a round table. Zayas was the first to take out several sealed boxes, all of which were Precipitated Glaze.

【You have obtained 4680 Precipitated Glaze.】

Zayas's harvest was quite good. Su Xiao deposited all the Precipitated Glaze into the Abyss Shop, and then exchanged for 2 "Original Fragments." It was originally planned to draw 20%, but if Zayas had enough "Original Fragments," this guy, as an Old God system user, could be promoted to Absolute Strongman in this world progress, which would undoubtedly be a great help in dealing with the Four Giants of the Lightless Temple.

Therefore, the 1624 Precipitated Glaze that Zayas should pay could be paid later. If the other party's Precipitated Glaze was always tight, it could also be replaced by other things.

Wood on the side didn't take out a large amount of Precipitated Glaze, but took out a sculpture about 20 cm high. This sculpture looked as if it was covered with a layer of asphalt. The face on the head had multiple faces, and the feeling was like many painful souls were drilling out of this body, and then froze.

【You have obtained Pain Statue.】

【Pain Statue】

Origin: Bottom of the Abyss.

Quality: Abyss-level.

Usage Effect:??? (Only Abyss-system ability users can use).

Rating:??? (Visible after activation).

Introduction: A ritual object placed in a designated position, can switch the light and dark of this place.

Selling Price (Abyss Shop): 5300 Precipitated Glaze.

This thing must be an important item in a certain dangerous area. It could be seen from the item introduction that to pass through that dangerous area, one must need this 【Pain Statue】.

However, no one knew where that dangerous area was. There was a 90% probability that it was not in the Eternal Light World. The reason was that with the extreme elemental environment of this world, the possibility of such an Abyss area existing was too low.

Thinking this way, keeping this item worth more than 5000 Precipitated Glaze was not as good as exchanging it for Precipitated Glaze to buy "Original Fragments."

Wood was not in a hurry to be promoted to Absolute Strongman and was still in the stage of accumulating "Original Fragments." Therefore, after Su Xiao sold this item to the Abyss Shop, he helped the other party exchange for an "Original Fragment" at an 80% discount, plus returned the remaining 2244 Precipitated Glaze to the other party.

Finally, it was Caesar's turn. This guy naturally wouldn't give up this opportunity to exchange for "Original Fragments" at an 80% discount. He immediately took out 6112 Precipitated Glaze. After Su Xiao earned 1528 from it, he helped Caesar exchange for two "Original Fragments."

This transaction seemed that Su Xiao made a lot of money, earning 764 Precipitated Glaze net for exchanging one "Original Fragment," but don't forget that the Abyss Shop had inventory limits. However, going to the Scarlet Castle this time was Su Xiao's proposal, and he would naturally fulfill all the things promised in advance.

After handling these things, Su Xiao came to the second floor of the manufacturing plant and stood on a Law-Breaker teleportation array. He originally wanted Zayas and Wood to go together, but both declined. Seeing this, Su Xiao activated the Law-Breaker teleportation array.

Boom!

A spatial shock occurred. Zayas, who was watching from the side, immediately changed his hairstyle. Judging from his serious gaze, he didn't plan to try this Law-Breaker teleportation array again in the future.

The sky was dim and dark. Su Xiao looked around. He had arrived at a dilapidated stone hut. This place was near the Scarlet Castle, not too far from the location marked on the treasure vault map.

Su Xiao took out the Watcher map to check the situation in the surrounding area. That Law-Breaker treasure vault was about 30 kilometers away from here. During this period, he might pass through a small town. This town was named Laughing Town. Everything was normal during the day, but after the dark night arrived, adventurers found that various wild laughter came from the town. None of the adventurers who went inside to investigate could come out.

Previously, the Grocery Brother, Thorns, mentioned that in the Corroding Rain Land, don't enter any caves, and in the Wet Salt District, if you see any small town, you must go around it, and it's best not to get within a few kilometers.

After Su Xiao determined the direction, he walked alone toward the direction of the treasure vault. Not long after he walked away, fluorescent blue light particles drifted from the place where he had just been. Then these light particles flickered, and a girl with fair skin and faint fluorescence, with short blue hair slowly shedding light particles, appeared. It was the new member of the Law Soul team who was tracking Su Xiao to ask for an explanation for the Scarlet Castle mission: Light Spirit Clan · Spirit Demon.

"Strange, why does this guy always disappear and reappear suddenly? Could it be that he also has the ability of telekinesis?"

Spirit Demon pondered for a few seconds and decided not to consider these for now. She was nominally here to ask for an explanation for the Scarlet Castle mission, but actually had another purpose. Before entering this world, she had cooperated with the Priest. Tracking Su Xiao now was to quietly set a coordinate on Su Xiao, and apply bad luck, making Su Xiao more and more unlucky later.

Setting coordinates to monitor Su Xiao's position in real time was the content of the cooperation between Spirit Demon and the Priest, while applying bad luck was because her mission was snatched, and she was very unhappy, which was not the content of the cooperation with the Priest.

Spirit Demon had tracked for a long time before finally tracking Su Xiao's trail, but after arriving at the Scarlet Castle, after weighing it, Spirit Demon didn't enter the Scarlet Castle. Although she had completed the 300-point attribute trial long ago, she hadn't been promoted to Absolute Strongman, so she chose to wait outside the castle.

But after waiting for a long time, she finally waited for the target to come out, but the target suddenly disappeared, which made Spirit Demon very angry. The thirst in the Wet Salt Land made her mood even more irritable, and she decided not to let it go, so she searched around. But who would have thought that she would encounter a guy named Rational Beast, and even received a side mission from the other party, earning a small profit after completing it.

Just when Spirit Demon was about to leave, the target she was tracking suddenly appeared again, which made Spirit Demon decide not to hesitate anymore. She would take action while keeping a distance of 1 kilometer. The other party was a melee technique master, and his long-range perception was average.

At this moment, Spirit Demon was sitting on the roof of a dilapidated stone hut, her two small legs swinging back and forth, her eyes fixed on the figure in the distance. After confirming that the distance was about 3 kilometers, she smiled so much that her little white teeth were exposed.

"Get ready to be unlucky, you bastard who dared to snatch my mission."

Spirit Demon clasped her hands together, and a faint light gradually appeared in her eyes. As her hands spread to both sides, a translucent mark appeared between her hands. This mark flew out, flying slowly, but had a tracking function.

This was Spirit Demon's specialty. She could let this mark slowly track the enemy. As this mark gradually approached the enemy, the characteristics of this mark slowly changed, finally disguising itself as the enemy's aura, so even if it attached to the target's clothes, the target would be difficult to notice.

Actually, after proceeding to this step, Spirit Demon should leave. At least the Priest's plan was so. But now that the main business was done, it was time for Spirit Demon to deal with personal grievances.

Black energy threads detached from Spirit Demon's hands. This was the bad luck she extracted from the surrounding world, and now, she wanted to let these bad luck track the target, so that the target would become more and more unlucky in the next 30 natural days.

【Your Bad Luck Omen ability has been activated.】

【This ability will be subject to double bonuses from your Charm and Luck attributes, and perform Charm and Luck attribute judgments on the enemy. If the judgment passes, the strength of this ability will be enhanced or weakened according to the judgment result】.

【Prompt: Because the enemy's Charm attribute is special, no matter whether this judgment is successful or not, you will bear the "Blood Malice" effect.】

【Charm attribute judgment in progress...】

【Your true Charm attribute is 360 points, which is 7560 times that of the enemy.】

After seeing this prompt, Spirit Demon blinked. She even suspected that she had read it wrong. After staring carefully, she found that it was correct, it was more than 7000 times.

Spirit Demon's mouth twitched, and then she used the function of the brand to screenshot and save this prompt. The next second, the subsequent prompt appeared.

【Your Bad Luck Omen ability was originally lasting for 30 natural days, but in the Charm judgment, this ability received a super-huge enhancement.】

【Judgment completed, the enemy will bear the debuff of "Bad Luck Omen," and this debuff state will last for 630 natural days.】

Spirit Demon's eyes widened a bit unconsciously, and her eyes were full of confusion. She really didn't expect that her "Bad Luck Omen" ability would be enhanced to this extent.

At this moment, Spirit Demon still didn't know that the limit of her "Bad Luck Omen" ability was far more than that.

【Warning: You have triggered the "Blood Malice" effect derived from the enemy's Charm attribute. Your position in the next 24 hours will be perceived by the enemy.】

【Warning: You have triggered the enemy's fortune counterattack ability "Undying Fortune."】

【Undying Fortune (Special · Passive), if you are quietly attacked by fate-system and causality-system abilities, it will trigger the fortune counter-effect, enhancing the incoming ability by 5-10 times with the Law-Breaker's fortune, and rebounding it to the caster.】

【Undying Fortune ability has taken effect. This ability will increase the debuff effect of "Bad Luck Omen" by 10 times and rebound it to you.】

【You have borne the debuff of "Bad Luck Omen," and this debuff state will last for 6300 natural days.】
