The rising sun shatters the darkness!

Chapter 410 Seeking Talents (asking for monthly tickets)

The transaction went smoothly, with the four excellent-grade spell tools being sold at a price of around 1200 each.

This level of spell tool is worth about two crystals or more. After all, the cost is just one crystal, plus some auxiliary materials from monsters, and then processed. The overall premium will not be very high.

The flawless-level 'Suo Qingqiu' was sold for a full 9000 contribution points.

According to what Lao Gang said, in fact, a flawless-grade spell tool can generally be used as two and a half crystals, but there are many practitioners in the "musician" path, and most of them are very wealthy, so they can get a certain premium.

He then sold all the erosion crystals that he had recently looted, especially the three purple crystals from the demon girl Nanazawa Mia, which accounted for the majority. He also bought 500 third-order blue crystals of level 10 or above at the price of 5 each, which he would use for his recent cultivation.

Finally, inside the space capsule, Xu Shu looked at the display on the screen:

* Upgraded network
*Gu Pan (Taichu), Level 3 Dragon Elephant

*Contributions: 12850
-

Seeing the contribution points breaking the five-digit mark for the first time in history, Xu Shu couldn't help but reveal a satisfied expression on his face.

Based on the conversion of 1 point of contribution being worth more than alliance cash, this makes him a billionaire, surpassing most people in the world. This is the confidence that robbing the rich to help the poor has given him.

"Killing people and setting fires for a gold belt, the ancestors really didn't deceive me!"

"Unfortunately, even with such a huge sum of money, it is only enough for me to practice for less than two weeks."

Life is not easy, Xu Shu sighed.

He turned to browse the trading channel and bought two armor-type protective spells, the "head" and the "armor", to replace the damaged protective spell on his body.

This time he finally had enough money, so Xu Shu did not compromise himself anymore. He made a rare move and chose an "excellent" level protective spell.

This time, Xu Shu betrayed Lao Gang and did not take care of his business. Instead, he placed an order in the shop of a demigod-level strong man named "True Lord, I am Poor".

It's not that he is not loyal enough, but he has to hide himself.

After all, he has cooperated with Lao Gang a lot. If he places an order for an "armor-type" protective spell from him, an action that almost reveals his extraordinary profession, there is still a certain possibility that he will guess that his real identity is Gu Pan, the "evil man".

This was naturally not the scene that Xu Shu wanted to see.

As the saying goes, when it comes to friendships involving money, distance really does create beauty.

The price of the protective spell "True Lord, I am Poor" is also quite competitive. After all, it is sold personally by "True Lord Dongxuan", so the quality is naturally guaranteed.

Xu Shu paid the money and bought two protective spells from the store.

They were sold at 800 points each, which was only half the price of spell tools of the same quality. After buying two protective spells, Xu Shu still had 11250 contribution points left.

This number is quite auspicious, as if it is a remembrance of his previous ranking on the Qingyun List - a fool.

Without much hesitation, after getting the things, Xu Shu stuffed the two talismans into the vortex driven by the upgrade to store them.

It is worth mentioning that the protective spell is different from the spell tool. It is something that is firmly bound to the curse and cannot be removed or dropped. It will automatically dissipate after being damaged. The replacement of the protective spell is similar to swallowing and replacing. After replacement, the original protective spell will directly dissipate into nothingness and cannot be retained.

Therefore, naturally, the containment protection spell does not affect the "spell storage position", but it will also bring some negative effects to the body of the extraordinary person, such as a certain degree of mental and physical pressure, and an increase in the degree of erosion of the spell.

Therefore, in order to carry more and more powerful spell tools, some extraordinary people choose to be "naked" or only wear white protective spells to free up space;
But more people choose to reduce the number of spells they own after wearing relatively high-quality protective spells.

After all, compared to pursuing extreme attacks, most people pay more attention to protecting their own lives, and spell tools are obviously more expensive, and not everyone can afford it.

Of course, there is also the rarest type, which neither wears high-quality protective spells nor possesses high-level spell tools. The main feature is one word: poverty. For example, Xu Shu once was.

Of course, things finally improved today.

"Clang!"

As the containment was completed, Xu Shu was wearing a set of heavy armor with a rather exaggerated appearance.

This made him look like a human tank, as if every move he made carried the power of a mountain, full of oppression.

The only downside is that this thing can't cover your face.

Well, if I were to pick out some flaws, it wouldn’t just be the appearance. It seems like its defense isn’t that much of a boost either?

Recalling that a certain "dragon elephant" that he had probably freed up space for to wear a higher quality protective spell was crushed to pieces by his ordinary attack in less than a minute, Xu Shu suddenly developed a strong "crazy nitpicking after large purchases" syndrome and wanted to return the product on the spot.

Unfortunately, Liezhenzi obviously did a poor job in this aspect. There is no return function, which is really disgusting.

"... Humph, useless thing, worse than a mask."

Xu Shu spat silently and clicked the [Hide Protection Spell Appearance] button to make himself look less conspicuous.

Afterwards, he left the Star Tower and faced the morning light. The ancient books in his sight flipped through the pages:

[The sun rises, and all things revive. Welcome back to the Taichu Volume, great master! ]

"Haha, I can try something new again." Xu Shu's lips curled up slightly, and the caution on his face was gradually replaced by strong confidence.

……

At exactly seven o'clock in the morning, Xu Shu arrived outside the safe zone.

He stopped at a mountain town no more than 30 miles away from the safe zone.

Not far away, three big characters "Youquanjian" were hung at the entrance of the town.

This is a place that Xu Shu once visited, and it belongs to the "Dielianhua" department.

The local area of ​​"Youquanjian" is rich in a special perfume called "Mosquito-Repellent Coil Gel". This special perfume is produced by offering death row prisoners to the Zerg alien species "Mosquito-Repellent Coil Eating Girl". The price is quite expensive.

"According to the reception ritual of the Copper Green Holy Grail, a specific corrosive substance needs to be poured into it. After a period of fermentation, it will become Copper Green Holy Water."

"In the town of Dielianhuasi, there are many industries centered around insect monsters. As we all know, there are many poisonous insect monsters, and they are most likely to secrete corrosive substances!"

"I wonder if this liquid from the mosquito-repellent eater is useful..."

Xu Shu looked at the narrow-sleeved Guanyin, licked his lips and talked to himself.

In fact, he had some guesses in his mind that 'Yang Shen Fu Shi' should be able to provide this kind of corrosive item.

However, for some reason, Xu Shu still hopes to find a replacement.

So he came to Youquanjian, where there had once been constant bombardment.

"Hope it works!"

Following his memory, Xu Shu passed through the dark forest and entered a damp and dark narrow tunnel. After walking for hundreds of meters, he arrived at a natural underground cave that was used as a "death row prisoner recycling center."

Everything is normal here. The empty cave is filled with bones, like a purgatory on earth.

It was almost the same as when I first arrived not long ago.

Today, a group of death row prisoners whose execution date has come were sent here through special channels.

The faces of these death row inmates were all pale, as if they had lost too much blood. They were being sucked blood and flesh by mosquito larvae with human faces, pointy heads and pointed lips. Their expressions were painful and weak, and they were experiencing one of the cruelest punishments in the world.

There was also a woman wearing thin clothes and transparent black stockings, who was both arrogant and charming. She was lying on the stone wall in an enchanting posture, like a queen.

This is the strange servant kept in this cave, the leader of the adult "Mosquito-repellent-eating women", a second-level alien species.

She dropped a prisoner that had just been sucked dry, and the remaining mosquito larvae swarmed out, gnawing on the flesh and blood, absorbing nutrients, and thriving.

In the cave, the faint screams of the death row prisoners, both male and female, were heard.

And by the underground river at the back, there are a large number of first-level mosquito-eating girls that have just completed metamorphosis and entered the adult stage.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, they instinctively squatted by the river and urinated.

The secretions in the water float here and there, and after a period of condensation and fermentation, they will become a condensed gelatinous substance that is quite similar in shape to moss.

Local residents living downstream use special tools to collect the colloidal liquid in the water.

This is the raw material for the production of mosquito coil gel.

In the eyes of these residents, mosquito coil gel is a natural product, a product of their own hard work and their livelihood. No one knows that there is such a bloody and terrifying industrial chain in secret.

——Of course, Xu Shu didn’t care about these. He hid not far away and looked around, his eyes moving around those first-level mosquito girls. He thought that the Taichu Scroll could help with identification. This is the stone wall!

Seeing the production scene, Xu Shu's blood felt a little hot.

This was not because he had poor concentration, but because he had stayed in the Butterfly Love Flower Division for a long time and was affected by the musk plant that was everywhere in the place.

This plant, nicknamed "the more musky, the more fragrant", is actually an herb that can treat male dysfunction. After being exposed to it for a long time, it is natural for the male to feel sexual desire and try to court any opposite sex around him.

Unfortunately, Xu Shu has always been a determined person and will not be easily influenced by these external things.

He simply ignored those cute girlish mosquitoes and went straight to the point, grabbing the powerful second-order mosquito queen and dragging her deep into the cave.

“Eh? Who are you…ah, why is it you!? No! You can’t do this, I’m a good alien with a master, you can’t do this~”

Xu Shu chuckled, showing no mercy at all: "Hehehe, no one will come to save you even if you scream your throat out. Be honest and hand over all the treasures on you, or I will kill you."

“No! Master, save…save me…save me quickly, ah ah ah!” The mosquito girl cried and struggled desperately.

Unfortunately, in front of Xu Shu, who was good at fighting against opponents of higher levels, all her struggles were in vain.

After half an hour of absorbing energy, the mosquito-girl monster fell to the ground with a pale face, dying.

As a well-fed mosquito, her originally bulging belly, at this moment... although it still looks round and bulging, has actually been replaced by a cat instead of a prince.

The best quality perfume raw materials in that batch were all plundered by Xu Shu, not even a drop was left.

After succeeding, Xu Shu left decisively before his master came looking for him and found a room to stay in the town.

Xu Shu poured the collected monster fluids into the "copper green holy grail". In places visible to the naked eye, a lot of rusty metal fell off the inner wall of the wine pot.

These patinas are like fermentation agents. They stir the newly poured "wine" on their own, causing it to ferment and produce a lot of foam and whirlpools, which looks quite magical.

"I hope it will succeed..." Xu Shu's eyes lit up and he waited patiently.

One minute……

Two minutes...

After more than an hour of waiting, the reaction was over.

Xu Shu opened the bottle cork, and the "wine" inside was transparent and clear, exuding a rich and subtle fragrance.

"Is this okay?"

Xu Shu didn't hesitate. He was skilled and bold. He picked up the wine pot and drank it in one gulp...

——Before he became depressed, he first gathered his will into a bundle and poured it into the Taichu Volume.

[Detecting current status...]

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

[Testing completed. 】

[Today is December 12th. Your situation is very bad. You put some body fluids from monsters into the cursed tool [Copper Green Holy Grail]. After fermentation, it turned into an unknown liquid.]

[Gulp~Gulp! You drink all of this unknown liquid. ]

[You look at the copper-green chalice nervously, placing it next to your upgraded drive briefs, looking forward to the next step.]

[Ten minutes passed, unfortunately, nothing happened.]

"Isn't it true?"

Xu Shu looked disappointed.

It seems that although these venoms come from a second-level monster, they obviously do not meet the requirements of the "Copper Green Holy Grail" and cannot be used as raw materials for the "Copper Green Holy Water".

[Not discouraged, he continued on his way and began to look for other monsters nearby.]

[You visited Ganlu Valley again and found the Queen Bee Ganlu No. 1. After a poke, you got a lot of honey. ]

[You pour honey into the copper-green holy grail, and after a period of reaction, sweet and delicious nectar is produced.]

[“It tastes pretty good.” You gave a thumbs up, expressing your approval of the taste of the honey nectar.]

[But unfortunately, the copper-green holy grail did not produce any reaction indicating that the ritual was completed.]

"No again?"

Xu Shu gritted his teeth and continued on his way.

[You visited Qun Die Ridge again. You know there is a charming green-fluorescent butterfly lady here.]

[“This Butterfly girl is such a stunner, with a thin waist, long legs, and a big torso, and beautiful facial features! Not only is she good at fancy moves, but she’s also extremely poisonous! Should it work this time?”]

[As the security personnel rushed over to chase you, you left and found a small nest nearby to continue researching and developing the copper-green holy water.]

[You swallow the butterfly nectar in one gulp. It tastes good, with the rough texture of butterfly powder and the special herbal aroma, which reminds you of the bubble milk tea you had before.]

[However, this is still not copper-green holy water, and your containment ritual is still not complete. ]

[…Are you really holding the containment ceremony seriously? I’m a little skeptical~]

"Why not? Damn it! Don't doubt my determination to become stronger!"

"Come again!"

Xu Shu was very angry about Taichujuan's distrust.

He put on a red mask and continued on his way.

Because he had been to the Butterfly Love Flower Division before, he had some impression of the distribution of the local Zerg servants, which could save him a lot of time.

In his battles to defeat enemies of higher levels time and time again, Xu Shu tirelessly used large amounts of Zerg body fluids as raw materials.

The mature black tiger scorpion aunt, the foot control's favorite centipede girl with few spines, the soft-spoken leech sister, and the most familiar black widow spider spirit...

The targets chosen by Xu Shu are becoming more and more terrifying, whether in terms of hideous appearance or toxicity, the threshold is constantly being raised.

One after another, the Zerg aliens were knocked to the ground by the King of Conquerors.

Today in the Butterfly Love Flower Company, people everywhere were cursing after seeing their evil servants being drained dry. It was another day of wailing everywhere.

But even so, that cold reminder still makes people despair.

【…The containment ceremony has not been completed.】

[Unfinished ritual…]

[Unfinished ritual…]

[Not completed…]

At five o'clock in the afternoon, following one pale reminder after another, Xu Shu ran all over the country but still failed.

Finally, the prompt changes:

[The sun sets, your journey ends perfectly, settlement in progress...]

[Evaluation: ...It's still the familiar recipe, it's still the familiar taste, you have the courage to break the heavy cauldron, you are wholeheartedly devoted to the Tao, and you don't let go of any little bug, even if she has twelve heads and eighty nanoseconds.

[Unfortunately, it is easy to break the outer layer of the body, but it is difficult to break the inner demon! You still haven't taken that step and can't defeat your inner demon, so this heaven-defying evaluation cannot be given to you. ]

[You get the item: Qiu Ju Ruo Ke (Excellent)]

【Thirsty for Juice (Excellent): A bottle of attractant spray. After using it on a target, it will frantically grab tissue fluid, blood, and all other water-based substances in the enemy's body. This item has a certain effect on Zerg special attacks, even if it is higher level. 】

[Number of times opened today: 0/3]

……

"Is it really impossible?"

Xu Shu didn't believe it. After finishing his journey, he walked again along the route he had tested.

For a moment, wailing echoed all over the place...

Six pm.

He returned to a fast food restaurant with a slightly dejected expression.

"Damn it, this won't work, and that won't work either!"

"Does it mean that the corrosive substances needed for the ritual must come from those professions in the array identification that can be directly contained without going through the ritual?"

Those specific professions include "Sewage Disposer", "Nurgle Demon", and "Yangshen Fushi".

But, what are the "corrosive substances" produced by these guys? Do I need to explain it?

For example, "polluters" have a nickname that is not there, but you don't have to think about it to know how they produce corrosive substances.

"Damn it, if I don't use that method, I'll have no choice but to give up the Copper Green Holy Grail!"

Xu Shu devoured the beef in front of him viciously, feeling very unwilling.

Ultimately, his desire for the powerful “Copper Green Holy Grail” drove him to make a decision that went against his ancestors.

He found a nearby hotel, booked a room, locked the doors and windows, took out the narrow-sleeved Guanyin, and shook it vigorously.

yah~
Feeling the fluctuations, the little jade Buddha silently opened one of its closed eyes and looked towards Xu Shu.

She was silent, but the red dot in her pupils spun strangely and finally formed a rather abstract symbol:

"?"

"Let An Lan out for a talk." Xu Shu said.

"..."Narrow-sleeved Guanyin did not speak.

But her other eye was spinning.

After a while, it turned into a thick, deep black, like a whirlpool.

Xu Shu knew that it was because of the control of the Narrow-sleeved Guanyin that the Yangshen Fushi temporarily gained some freedom of movement.

"...What do you want to do?!" the little tigress asked cautiously in a baby voice.

Her attitude towards Xu Shu was very strange. Not only had she been completely surpassed by him before, but she was also controlled by him and had to recognize him as her master. So she was a little afraid of him, but also felt a little close to him, which was very contradictory.

When Xu Shu looked at the dark eyes, he subconsciously recalled the highly corrosive mucus that Wu Liuzhi had used, and its sticky texture.

The sight of the other person tilting his head back to drink makes one feel as if their stomach is churning just thinking about it.

However, its powerful destructive power and ability to destroy and control the environment are still extremely exciting.

Finally, Xu Shu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, overcame his resistance, and gritted his teeth and said:

"Come out, Raya!"
