Chapter 129 Spinal Fluid and Mermaid Flesh
Chapter 129 Spinal Fluid and Mermaid Flesh
When Li Yu transformed into a giant, he could clearly feel the strength of his alchemist body increasing exponentially.
At the same time, the elixir fire, demon body, etc., also received a boost.
This ugly giant was obviously one of the "evil spirits". After being controlled by Li Yu, he was unable to resist the burning of the elixir fire.
Before the other giants arrived, he had already died on the spot.
In Li Yu's mind, a reminder sound of gaining merit points rang out, and the countdown for the "naming rights" was still continuing.
But Li Yu seemed to be deaf to all this and took the initiative to meet the other giants.
His last bit of sanity was locked up, so after transforming into a giant, he did not lose himself and become evil.
However, the side effects of this curse pollution, such as "tyranny" and "bloodthirstiness", are inevitable.
At this time, Li Yu was entering a violent state.
Perhaps it was because he was already at Sequence Seven level before the transformation, so his transformed form was far stronger and more terrifying than other giants.
A brutal massacre!
Soon, it happened in the city.
The arms containing terrifying power tore at the bodies of the other giants, and the elixir fire gushed out wildly, burning the city covered by the swirling fog into purgatory.
Because of his demon body, he was not afraid of being hurt at all.
Fearless and unafraid of death, only attacking and not defending.
About an incense stick later, the sound of fighting stopped.
Broken limbs and charred corpses.
Li Yu, who had completed the killing, was taking out balloons shaped like human heads from the sachet.
That’s right, one isn’t enough.
The curse pollution in his body is extremely strong.
Li Yu could only hear the sound of "bang bang bang" as he watched brain matter and blood rain down from the sky while a large amount of hot steam gushed out of his body.
Immediately, the huge giant's body began to shrink visibly.
In the blink of an eye, he returned to his normal size.
An indescribable feeling of weakness surged over him like a tide, but was quickly absorbed by his "demon body".
Only at this point did he truly regain his clarity of mind.
The brutal desire for killing disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.
But the scene before him, which was like a giant's purgatory, reminded Li Yu that everything he had just seen, felt, and done was real.
In his mind, the reminder sounds that he had ignored reappeared because of his thoughts.
These are all the merit points he gained after killing the giant.
Although not all giants possess [Cursed Essence], there are quite a few giants in the city, and the total amount is still a huge sum.
"Including the 800 merit points gained when triggering the land reclamation mission."
"A total of 6,000 merit points were credited!"
"After just this one mission, my merit points have reached 9,900."
At this time, Li Yu understood more clearly that wealth and honor can only be achieved through risk.
Although he was almost eaten by the giant, the harvest that followed was unexpectedly bountiful.
More importantly, this is not the end.
Li Yu remembered the reminder about the land reclamation mission, and immediately stood up and began to explore and search around.
The first is to improve the completion rate of land reclamation.
The second is naturally plunder.
There are supplies everywhere, so it doesn't make sense that a giant city like this wouldn't have any.
Sure enough, not long after, Li Yu looted the first item:
"Spinal fluid of an unknown creature!"
"After taking it, you can transform into a giant and be immune to most of the curse pollution in the vortex country."
"The price is a drastic change in temperament, becoming violent and bloodthirsty, with an extremely strong desire to eat humans... If you can't resist, you will completely turn into a giant, and the Demon Star Order will be separated."
"Good stuff!"
"It can increase combat power and avoid pollution."
Li Yu was overjoyed and continued to search.
Before long, he had searched the entire Giant City several times.
There was a lot more of that spinal fluid wonder in the sachet.
After the great harvest, he did not stop any longer, but went straight out of the Giant City and continued to head towards the deepest ruins.
And at the moment he left the Giant City, the scorching fog that enveloped the entire city suddenly disappeared without a trace.
In his mind, prompts sounded again:
"Congratulations to the commander codenamed 'Evil Star' for completing the side mission 1: [Opening up the wasteland]."
"This new area was automatically named Giant City."
"The monsters in the city are alienated giants. Some of them are cursed source aggregates. It is easy to be infected with the giant curse after entering the city. The supplies in the city are giant spinal fluid."
"The completion rate of land reclamation is extremely high... The master has obtained 1,000 merit points."
"My merits have exceeded 10,000."
After hearing this, Li Yu was immediately delighted.
As expected, the more dangerous the mission, the greater the reward.
You know, he is still far away from the settlement place.
Just by being in the second round of the curse storm, the merit points he obtained have exceeded ten thousand.
Of course, this is a risky venture.
Whether it was the 3,100 points of merit in the first round or these thousands of merits, other demon star masters and reincarnationists should not be able to get them. Because as long as they are not stupid, they will avoid the poison circle at the first time, and will not be unlucky enough to be caught in the undeveloped strange area.
However, this experience also made Li Yu realize:
"It seems that uncultivated lands are not all that dangerous."
“At least for me, the risk is much lower.”
"In this world filled with curses and pollution, my abnormality that can lock away the last bit of sanity can be considered the most extreme cheat to some extent."
"Perhaps, I can rob more benefits with this?"
After a few thoughts came to mind, Li Yu suddenly had a new plan in his mind.
He calculated it very clearly!
Like the Giant City, if it were someone else, no matter if it was the Demon Star Commander or the Reincarnator, even if they were not eaten by the giants the first time they entered, they would quickly turn into giants and be trapped in the city.
But Li Yu was different. He borrowed the giant curse, killed all the giant monsters, completed the land reclamation mission, and plundered many benefits.
This can be done in Giant City, and the same can be done in other undeveloped mysterious areas.
However, a second experiment is still needed.
And this second "experimental subject" also arrived very quickly.
Li Yu had just escaped from Giant City for some distance and was still in the poison circle. The human head balloon, a rare item in his hand that could resist the pollution of the curse, was now gone and all used up.
When he was about to take out other rare items, an uncultivated area completely covered by fog suddenly appeared in front of him.
When he approached and reached out to touch the white mist, a strong fishy smell gushed out.
The stench was so strong and terrible that it was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Even with Li Yu's "body of a Taoist priest" that was resistant to poison, he almost fainted after smelling it.
It was a strong smell of dead fish, as if a large number of sea fish and shrimp were piled up and allowed to rot for a year or so.
Any mortal who smells it will die suddenly.
Practitioners cannot resist for long.
In his mind, a prompt sounded:
"The Lord has been contaminated by an [Unknown Curse]... This curse can cause the Lord's body to undergo fish-related changes, and will gradually rot, emitting a high concentration of foul odor."
When I heard this.
Li Yu looked down and immediately saw new changes beginning to occur in his body.
First, fine and dense fish scales appeared, and then the scales exploded, and pustules with juice appeared underneath. A terrible stench quickly brewed and expanded in Li Yu's body, and tried to drill out from his various acupoints.
The intensity of the curse pollution made Li Yu look sideways.
In addition to its high speed, it also temporarily suppressed the ubiquitous "vortex pollution" in the poison circle.
in a blink!
Li Yu is gone.
Instead, it should be called Li Yu.
That's right, he has become a monster covered with fish scales, and even gills have begun to grow on his neck...
Along with alienation comes extremely strong disgust, hatred and cannibalism.
Of course, Li Yu could do nothing about these because his mind was locked.
After Li Yu thought about it, he took a step forward and entered the foggy area before him.
The familiar prompt sound came again:
"Congratulations to the Lord of Misfortune for triggering the side quest: Opening up the wasteland."
"We have discovered a new, unexplored area. The owner has the exclusive right to name it. If no name is given within ten breaths, it will be automatically generated."
"The Lord has received the merit reward: 800 points."
"Your Majesty, please explore this place..."
"Congratulations, Lord, for triggering the side quest of Sacrificing the Cursed Essence..."
Li Yu did not immediately pay attention to the demon star.
Instead, he looked seriously at what was in front of him.
It seems to be a city built by the lake, but it has been submerged by the lake for more than half and is almost completely swallowed up.
The city is full of mud and stinking water, and the residents here have all turned into "fish-like people", with features such as fish scales, gills, and fins growing on their bodies.
They either swim in the stinky water or lie prone on the ground, swallowing stinking sludge in big gulps.
Of course, what are more are various kinds of giants, soaked in sewage.
Smelly!
This was the first thought in Li Yu’s mind.
The second thought was: "I don't feel that there is much danger, and I can gain something."
When this thought came to his mind, Li Yu moved.
Although the environment here is far worse than that of the Giant City.
But for him, it was not dangerous at all, just extremely disgusting.
……
I don't know how much time passed when Li Yu came out again.
The stinking mist that enveloped this stinking water city completely dissipated without a trace.
In Li Yu's mind, the reward reminder sound of the Demon Star Order rang:
"Congratulations to the commander codenamed 'Evil Star' for completing the side mission 1: [Opening up the wasteland]."
"This new area has been named by the Lord... Fishman City."
"All the weird creatures in the city are alienated murlocs, and some of them are cursed source aggregates. They don't need to enter the city. As long as they smell the 'murloc stench', they will be contaminated by the pollution named by the Lord as the [Murloc Curse]. After entering the city, the effects of this curse will continue to accumulate until the intruders are also transformed into murlocs and fall into the city."
"The supplies in the Fishman City are: Mermaid meat."
"After taking it, you will immediately transform into a murloc and gain immunity to most of the polluting curses in the Weird Territory of the Whirlpool Nation... If you cannot resist the transformation, you will completely turn into a murloc and return to the Murloc City."
"The completion rate of land reclamation is extremely high... The master has obtained 1,000 merit points."
"This time, the Lord has gained a total of 4,800 merit points."
