Chapter 811

Black Earth Fortress 4th floor, Quartermaster's dormitory.

"Is this really okay?"

Nicholas Caesar's unique voice came, a voice that revealed a bit of cunning amidst the sleaze.

"Shut up."

Su Xiao sat in front of the experimental table, with dozens of test tubes and various experimental utensils placed in front of him.

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang squatted beside Su Xiao and barked at Nicholas Caesar.

This time, it was Su Xiao who took the initiative to find Caesar. Under normal circumstances, Su Xiao wouldn't have too frequent contact with Caesar because Caesar's performance was too abnormal, as well as that fluctuating favorability.

However, with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang holding the fort, Su Xiao had a way to deal with Caesar. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang would "assist" Su Xiao in negotiating with Caesar.

After Caesar initially learned of this situation, he was speechless. However, after some contact, he unexpectedly discovered that this dog was very "interesting."

This was Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang trying hard to pull Caesar's "IQ" to the same level as his own. Su Xiao being able to sit in front of the experimental table already explained everything.

After a "fair" duel, the relationship between Caesar and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang gradually became "familiar," plus Su Xiao's bluffing, Caesar was clearly a bit confused by this man and dog. He still didn't know Su Xiao's ultimate goal.

"Are you sure you didn't sense it wrong? Is it a kind of energy in Carlos's blood? I feel it's more like a creature."

Although Caesar let Su Xiao touch his beloved experimental table, the important materials on the experimental table had long been put away by him.

"Not very sure, but with your alchemy level, you won't be able to touch this field within a dozen years. Bring Carlos's blood here."

That's right, Su Xiao had set his sights on Carlos's blood.

Under the negotiation "interfered" with by Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Su Xiao roughly understood Carlos's situation. Of course, this also included the pressure the Dark Elf Princess put on Caesar, which had already given Caesar an ultimatum.

In desperation, Caesar could only choose to gamble, telling Su Xiao about Carlos's situation.

If it were anyone else, Caesar naturally wouldn't reveal this matter. Revealing Carlos's physical condition was a matter of losing one's head. However, Su Xiao's alchemy level was higher than Caesar's, which gave Caesar a glimmer of hope. After all, with Caesar's current alchemy level, wanting to treat Carlos was simply impossible.

Caesar had been holding on, and the reason he took this risk was because helping Carlos extend his life could allow Caesar to obtain the resources needed to study alchemy.

Now that Carlos was nearing the end of his life, Caesar had intended to run away early. Who would have thought that the war would break out, and he wouldn't have the chance to run. This morning, the Dark Elf Princess left a tracking brand on him, and he couldn't run even if he wanted to.

Just at this time, Su Xiao found Caesar with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. After some probing, plus Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang "interfering" with Caesar from time to time, the two sides finally "happily" cooperated.

According to Caesar, Legion Commander Carlos was already nearing the end of his life, with at most 3 months left to live, or even shorter.

There was an unknown energy eroding Carlos's body. This energy had been in Carlos's body since he was a child. As Carlos grew older, this unknown energy became stronger and stronger.

Initially, this unknown energy made Carlos's physical fitness far exceed his peers, and even gave him stronger perception. This made the young Carlos mistakenly believe that this was his greatest reliance.

However, good times didn't last long. As Carlos's strength improved, the unknown energy in his body became stronger and stronger, eventually exceeding Carlos's control range.

Discovering this situation, Carlos immediately went to a mysterious organization like the Alchemy Guild to inquire. The result obtained was that the energy in Carlos's body was of unknown nature and was absorbing his life force to grow at every moment. Not only that, once Carlos killed someone, the growth rate of the energy in his body would be even faster.

Afterward, Carlos silenced the alchemist who knew about this matter. That alchemist was coveting the energy in his body.

After this, Carlos kept his mouth shut about the unknown energy in his body until he accidentally met Nicholas Caesar. At that time, Carlos was already 35 years old.

In the following years, Carlos provided resources to Caesar, and Caesar was responsible for helping Carlos study the energy in his body and finding ways to clear it.

However, Caesar's ability was limited, and at most, he could help Carlos suppress it slightly.

Carlos knew nothing about alchemy, so Caesar exaggerated his role, boasting that if it weren't for him, Carlos would have died suddenly long ago.

Carlos was not stupid; he knew clearly how many pounds Caesar weighed. Relying on Caesar was a helpless move. Powerful alchemists or mages were too dangerous. The lessons from his youth were still vivid in his mind. Carlos would never forget how crazy that person was after seeing that energy.

If the Carlos of the past was thinking of ways to control the unknown energy in his body and convert the unknown energy into his own energy, the current Carlos was thinking of every possible way to clear the unknown energy in his body. After all, this unknown energy would take his life.

The situation in Carlos's body continued to deteriorate. That kind of unknown energy was distributed in Carlos's blood and muscles, and wanting to eradicate it was harder than ascending to heaven.

Inside Caesar's room.

Su Xiao looked at Caesar. He wanted to figure out what that kind of unknown energy was. First, he had to have Carlos's blood.

"This... why don't you assume it first? Use your brain to conceive the experimental process?"

Caesar clearly didn't want to take out Carlos's blood. There wasn't much of Carlos's blood left with him, and he didn't dare to squander this blood at will. If Carlos knew that Caesar was using this blood at will, Caesar's little life would be in danger.

It wasn't that Carlos was stingy with his own blood, but that his blood was now full of that kind of unknown energy, or rather, the blood in his body no longer had the properties of blood. And the blood left with Caesar had a lower content of unknown energy, which could still be considered Carlos's blood, and was of great significance.

"Don't talk nonsense, Xiang Bubu, bite him."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang inherited Su Xiao's greenhorn style and took a bite on Caesar's calf.

"Ouch~"

Caesar let out a scream and retreated quickly.

"Space-Tearing Dog Xiang Bubu Teni, we are friends, you actually bite me, you, you, you..."

Several tooth marks appeared on Caesar's greenish legs. He was so angry his fingers were trembling. This was Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's method of lowering Caesar's IQ—bite whatever looked good! This was to provoke Caesar.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang didn't care about Caesar's favorability, nor did he need to exchange for items in the Merit Store. If Caesar dared to oppose him, he would bite him directly.

Facing this greenhorn Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Caesar was very helpless. In terms of force, he couldn't beat Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. As for turning against him, that wouldn't work either. He still wanted to learn alchemy from Su Xiao.

In this awkward situation, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was simply a natural enemy to Caesar.

"Are you sure you have a way? If you can really solve this trouble for me, I don't mind taking out some good things from the supplies, provided that you can solve Carlos's trouble. Also, it must be in my name; just say that the method to treat Carlos was obtained through me."

Caesar was Caesar. At this critical moment, he didn't forget his own interests, stingy to the end.

"Good things? Take them out and let me see."

As soon as Su Xiao's voice fell, the Reincarnation Paradise's prompt appeared. A few seconds later, he saw the most pit-like mission in history.

【Prompt: Hunter has triggered a special mission through special plot character Nicholas Caesar.】
