Chapter 861

The student was a Qiyuezhe, after all, and Bagu and his men were no match for him. After a brief clash, Bagu and his men were beaten half to death. But the student had just experienced his first derived world and had always lived in a peaceful world; he couldn't understand how terrifying it is not to kill a snake completely. In his view, breaking Bagu's limbs and having the man beg for mercy at his feet meant the threat from him was basically resolved, since he had already defeated him.

Clearly, this student had read too many hot-blooded stories. Just three days later, Bagu's revenge came.

Bagu indeed couldn't do anything to the student, but the student's family were ordinary people. This was the breakthrough point.

When Bagu delivered the limbs of the student's father to him, the student collapsed. The subsequent events were predictable. The student stubbornly ignored the warnings of Reincarnation Paradise and produced the data Su Xiao now held in the real world.

Through the chemical formulas in the data, one could concoct a potion called "Muscle Explosive Growth." Anyone could use it to gain stamina attributes exceeding those of ordinary people, roughly between 7 and 10 points. The side effects were extremely severe; the stamina attribute gained through distorted growth was obtained by overdrawing one's life force.

Su Xiao could understand the data in his hand because, first, he had some knowledge of chemistry, and second, alchemy and chemistry have many things in common.

According to the content of the data, Su Xiao could even modify it to create a more perfect potion, significantly reducing the side effects.

Of course, he wouldn't do this in the real world; interfering too much with the real world is dangerous. However, although this potion couldn't be manufactured in the real world, it could be made within Reincarnation Paradise.

The severe side effects didn't matter because Su Xiao didn't intend to give it to humans at all. He had had an idea for a long time: to unlock the third layer of alchemy.

The third layer of alchemy is the manufacturing of alchemical creatures. Initially, Su Xiao didn't unlock the third layer because he was accustomed to a solo fighting style; he had no energy to control summons during combat.

However, after summoning Amu, Su Xiao was surprised to find that creating an alchemical creature as a meat shield was a very good choice, simply because he could transfer control to Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. This was something he hadn't thought of before.

He didn't need the alchemical creature to have strong combat power; it just needed to be able to hold the front. During combat, the alchemical creature didn't need Su Xiao's control at all; Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang would be responsible for controlling it. With Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's hiding skills, it would be an amateur healer + top-tier scout + stealth summoner. The final stealth summoner could be called unsolvable.

In this way, Su Xiao could focus on fighting while also having a meat shield to block at critical moments. Not only that, with the bonus of Su Xiao's 79 points of Intelligence, if it were a defense-oriented alchemical creature, its health and survival ability would definitely be very strong. One must know that most summoners develop Intelligence and Charisma simultaneously—Charisma ensures the loyalty of the summons, and Intelligence boosts their attributes. Therefore, most second-tier summoners have lower Intelligence attributes than Su Xiao.

Su Xiao is different; he doesn't need to ensure the loyalty of the alchemical creature at all—he is the creator.

Absolute loyalty + stamina potion boost + 79 points of Intelligence boost + Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's control = a main tank that doesn't fear death, and this main tank is a renewable resource.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao's eyes began to burn. This time, upon returning to Reincarnation Paradise, he would definitely unlock Alchemical Creature Manufacturing.

Two days later, inside the accessory shop Su Xiao opened.

"In other words, you returned here from Reincarnation Paradise two days ago?"

Su Xiao leaned against the bar, a thick bandage hanging around his neck, suspending his left arm. Although the injury to his left arm had largely recovered, the bones were severely fractured and required a few days of rest. From this, one could see how perverted the recovery power derived from 80 points of Stamina is. For an injury like a broken bone, which takes ordinary people several months to recover from, Su Xiao only needed 3–4 days. If combat required it, his left arm wouldn't hinder him the day after the injury.

Su Xiao didn't have active recovery skills, but with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang around, broken bones could recover even faster.

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang lay lazily on the sofa, wagging its tail from time to time.

"You stayed in the shop by yourself for two days..."

Su Xiao thought of this and looked around. Judging by the current situation, the various furniture seemed unharmed.

Bang.

The shop door was suddenly pushed open, and a trembling Fatty Ma rushed into the accessory shop.

"Su, Su, Su..."

Fatty Ma couldn't speak clearly, which made Su Xiao somewhat puzzled.

"I, I, I, in the tire gap, no, the rim, no, anyway, I found this..."

Fatty Ma handed over a black plastic bag. Fatty Ma's personality is very interesting; when he gets nervous, he starts to stutter.

Su Xiao took the plastic bag. Inside was actually a severed finger. This was likely blown away by the shockwave generated by his attack during the battle at the scrap yard.

"I'll handle this."

Su Xiao went upstairs, and soon the sound of flushing water came.

After a while, Su Xiao came downstairs carrying a travel bag and handed it to Fatty Ma. Fatty Ma opened the bag to see bundles of brand-new hundred-dollar bills inside.

"Is this... hush money?"

Fatty Ma's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

"Hush money? No, this money is for me to buy your car. This is also the pickup fee for a new car."

Su Xiao's meaning was already very clear. Finding a finger inside an aluminum alloy rim, even if it had no actual impact, was very unlucky for a car. This was something Su Xiao hadn't cleaned up properly before. Since he happened to need a car, he paid to buy this one and let Fatty Ma pick up a new one.

"That works too. To be honest, finding a finger in a tire, I was internally devastated."

Fatty Ma smiled. If this were hush money, he would definitely not accept the money. A pickup fee was different. There was conservatively over 800,000 in the travel bag.

"Have you had lunch?"

Fatty Ma zipped up the travel bag; he was already considering what new car to get.

"I've eaten."

"Then I'll go first. My brother is calling me for a drink. Want to come?"

"I have some other things to do. Another day."

As Su Xiao spoke, he took a string of beads from a shelf nearby and tossed it to Fatty Ma.

"Is this beeswax?"

Fatty Ma examined the yellow, transparent string of beads in his hand.

"Natural amber, relatively high transparency."

"Very expensive?"

"Very expensive."

"Then thank you."

Fatty Ma didn't know what being polite was at all. He left the car keys, carried the travel bag in his left hand, toyed with the amber beads in his right, and hummed a tune as he walked out of the shop.

Not long after Fatty Ma left, Su Xiao received a prompt from Reincarnation Paradise, and he locked the shop door.

【Prompt: A new derived world is about to open. The Hunter will return to Reincarnation Paradise. Please ensure there are no witnesses around.】

【Teleporting... Teleportation complete.】

When Su Xiao's vision recovered, he was already in his exclusive room.

【Prompt: The Hunter has successfully broken through physical limits. You will obtain clues related to the "Proof of the Strong."】
