Chapter 63: News of the Wraith

"The lethally poisoned arrows are right there; go get them yourself, I'll go equip you with color-changing paint."

"Su Hao brought Ling Xue'er to Da Xiong Mao's room, then let her go get the lethally poisoned arrows herself."

"Su Hao then returned to his room, took out the color-changing paint bucket placed beside the bed, activated an energy crystal, and began mass-producing color-changing paint."

"About an hour later, after consuming one energy crystal, the color-changing paint bucket had already finished producing 10 tons of color-changing paint."

"After one round of trade, net profit was nine energy crystals!"

"Afterwards, Su Hao took out the storage bag containing 10 tons of color-changing paint and walked over to the waiting Ling Xue'er."

"This is 10 tons of color-changing paint; as long as you apply it to an object's surface, it can automatically change the object's surface color, blending it into the surroundings to achieve an invisibility effect."

"However, there is one thing to note: the automatic color-changing speed is not very fast, so if applied to a high-speed moving object, the effect won't be great."

"Su Hao handed the storage bag to Ling Xue'er, explaining how to use the color-changing paint and its drawbacks."

"It's fine, it's fine; we originally planned to use the color-changing paint for the shelter."

"Ling Xue'er took the storage bag containing the color-changing paint, her face lit up with a brilliant smile, and she hurriedly waved her hand."

"Being able to obtain this color-changing paint, putting the shelter in an invisible state, already made her very happy."

"Otherwise, every time she went out to explore or carry out a mission, she would worry that her home would be stolen."

"After obtaining the color-changing paint, Ling Xue'er now just wants to hurry back, paint her shelter with a layer of color-changing paint, putting her shelter in an invisible state."

"That way, in the future when she goes out to carry out missions, she won't have to worry so much about the shelter's safety."

"\"Boss, if there's nothing else, I'll head back first… look at my memory, how did I forget this! \""

"But she had only said half of that when she suddenly remembered something and vigorously patted her own head."

"\"Boss, it's like this: we discovered a resource-rich underground tomb, but when we explored the final chamber, we were blocked by a Second Rank undead creature. \""

"\"Judging by the gains from the previous chambers, that final room likely still has plenty of good stuff; are you interested? \""

"\"Undead creature? \""

"Upon hearing Ling Xue'er's words, Su Hao slightly startled."

"If it were just an ordinary monster, Su Hao might not be very interested, but if that undead creature is a wraith, then it's different."

"Among the two main materials needed to craft the Second Rank Necromancer's Magic Potion, one is a wraith's soul crystal."

"Grandpa Andelu has already contributed a skull; as long as we get another wraith's soul crystal, the materials needed to craft the Second Rank Necromancer's Magic Potion are basically all gathered."

"If the undead creature Ling Xue'er mentioned is a wraith, then Su Hao would have to go even if he had to pay."

"\"What does that undead creature look like? \""

"\"It's a creature that looks like a wraith, lacking a physical form; we're no match for a Second Rank monster, so after seeing it we used a teleportation talisman to flee, and we don't know much else... \""

"Ling Xue'er touched her fair, cute nose, her expression showing some embarrassment."

"Having just seen the enemy, before they even made a move, she got scared and ran away; admitting this feels a bit embarrassing."

"However, Su Hao didn't notice Ling Xue'er's expression change; upon hearing the words 'wraith' and 'lacking a physical form', his eyes flickered slightly, and he confirmed again:"

"\"Are you sure it's a creature that looks like a wraith and lacks a physical form? \""

"\"Mm-hmm, I can confirm that; although the lighting was dim back then, we could still see through the undead's body to the chair behind it. \""

"\"Great! \""

"Upon hearing Ling Xue'er's affirmative answer, Su Hao clasped his hands tightly together and his face showed an excited smile."

"A Second Rank undead that closely resembles a wraith and lacks a physical form is very likely a wraith."

"This is great; as long as we kill this Second Rank wraith, refine its corpse, we should obtain a wraith's soul crystal without any mishap."

"Then, we'll head to the Goblin Tribe, kill the Second Rank Bloody Butcher, and on the way enter the Dark Dungeon to find Grandpa Andelu's skull."

"Then the main materials for the Second Rank Necromancer's Magic Potion and the Second Rank Blood Mage's Magic Potion will all be gathered."

"As for the remaining auxiliary materials, that's no problem; we can post a trade in the God Summer Doomsday Investigation Group's chat and surely resolve it."

"That way, the matter of the two potions is considered settled; next, as long as we obtain the materials to synthesize the potion, Su Hao can successfully advance!"

"The materials needed to synthesize the Second Rank Blood Mage's potion also have some leads."

"If we can get the butcher's position from Le Yun, perhaps nine Butcher Hearts will solve it."

"As for the materials to synthesize the Second Rank Necromancer's potion, Su Hao currently has no leads; hopefully Grandpa Andelu's skull might bring some surprise."

"\"If nothing unexpected happens, at most half a month and I'll become a Supernatural Second Rank cultivator! \""

"Thinking of this, Su Hao inevitably felt a sense of self-satisfaction."

"Looking across the entire human race, no one can become a Second Rank Supernatural cultivator within half a month."

"Moreover, Su Hao's Second Rank Supernatural cultivator possesses two Second Rank Supernatural abilities."

"Furthermore, these two Supernatural abilities are synthesized Supernatural sequences; their strength may not outright crush Third Rank, but they are comparable to Third Rank, which should be fine."

"Once the advancement is complete, we can go to the Withered Forest to regain our standing; Su Hao is not one to take a beating for nothing."

"Since that undead creature is very likely a Second Rank wraith, Su Hao has no reason not to go to the tomb Ling Xue'er mentioned."

"\"I'm very interested in that undead creature; roughly when will you guys go to that tomb? \""

"\"Boss, boss, really? Really? Are you really going to help us fight that undead creature? \""

"Upon hearing Su Hao's answer, Ling Xue'er's face showed ecstatic joy."

"If Su Hao is willing to act, then they would have the chance to personally see that Second Rank undead creature fall and enter the final chamber of that tomb."

"Even if there's no gain at all, just being able to personally see the boss they dare not face get killed would be a delight for both body and mind."

"\"I'm not helping you; that Second Rank undead creature is very important to me, and I want the lion's share of whatever is in that final chamber! \""

"\"No problem, no problem; this is all as it should be—if the boss can lead us to defeat the boss, we'll be satisfied! \""

"Ling Xue'er hurriedly nodded; Su Hao would take everything in the final chamber for himself, and she wouldn't say anything about it."

"\"Then when you're about to set out, remember to tell me a day or two in advance. \""

"\"We can do that; you, the boss, arrange the time—just let me know whenever you want to go. \""

Upon hearing that, Su Hao glanced at his own injuries, pondered for a moment, then said:

"Then... the day after tomorrow? What do you think?"

"Although the flesh wounds on Su Hao's body, if he drinks a few hundred milliliters of 【Wolf-head Stitching Monster essence blood】 tonight, he should almost fully recover."

"But the bones broken on Su Hao's body won't heal that quickly; even if he takes a large amount of essence blood, he likely won't recover until tomorrow."

"There's no way; compared to 【thick scarlet blood】, the effectiveness of either 【Wolf-head Stitching Monster essence blood】 or 【Double-head Stitching Monster essence blood】 is much worse."

"Moreover, Su Hao has broken too many bones this time; even if he uses up all the synthesis opportunities over these two days to produce one or two drops of 【thick scarlet blood】, it would still be difficult for him to set all his bones in a single night."

"So it's better to depart the day after tomorrow and rest tomorrow; that would be safer."
