Bizarre Realm-Chapter 205 - 27: Research Records on the Lost Controllers
Abyss City.
A Judgement Soul Demon Commander brought back Shaun’s share of the spoils, the Extraordinary Relics left behind by Bloodthirster-Gos, along with three High Tier Curios belonging to this Legendary Leader. The most powerful of these Curios was the Poison Spear of Bloodthirster-Gos, forged from the spine of the Legendary Monster Nine-headed Hydra Lizard. These Curios are generally usable only by Transcendents on the Warrior Path, and even picking them up proved quite difficult for Shaun, as they require a very high Power Attribute. However, he could use the Invisible Hand.
"Master Shaun."
The Judgement Soul Demon Commander respectfully said, "The City Lord has instructed me to inform you that the Extraordinary Relics of the Lizardman Leader are not pure, with severe contamination."
"They are a fusion of the Ranger and Warrior paths, with a high risk of losing control. It’s best to let the merchants of Abyss City handle them."
Shaun nodded slightly, looking at the reflection of the terrifying pig-headed monster before him, he calmly said, "I understand."
The humanoid appearance of the Judgement Soul Demon was that of a cold middle-aged man, quite fierce-looking, with a face full of angular flesh, sturdy to the point of being somewhat corpulent. In the reflection seen through Spiritual Vision, it resembled the former Butcher, though lacking the deeply chilling intimidating presence.
In Shaun’s Spiritual Vision, the true form of the Judgement Soul Demon was a tall and fat beast, with a gruesome wild pig head, and large hands made up of four huge fingers at the ends of its arms.
"The Butcher’s fused Extraordinary Relic also has some demonic essence?"
"It should not be that simple."
The Butcher’s strength far exceeded the Judgement Soul Demon before him, as he regularly chopped down Pillars of Flesh and Blood made from Legendary Monster corpses. The Pillar of Flesh and Blood is a materialization of the world’s hatred, and the flesh and blood tentacles Shaun had acquired before were its branches. The pillar itself counts as an Ancient Evil level existence, and the Butcher seemed to be continually suppressing the Pillar of Flesh and Blood’s erosion of the high walls.
The Judgement Soul Demon Commander bowed and took his leave, stating before departing, "The items you requested have been found."
"They can be delivered by this afternoon."
So fast?
Shaun nodded slightly, watched the Demon Commander depart, and then instructed the Clay Golem to take his spoils into the laboratory.
Half an hour later.
Shaun left the tower and headed to the market district. Having eaten something along the way, he encountered the alluring Succubus again at around noon.
He was there to repay a favor.
Purgatory Fire Horn.
Succubus - Veronica did not expect her previous investment to yield returns so quickly. After welcoming Shaun to the second floor, she was stunned, her alluring red lips parted wide in shock at the various Curios and Extraordinary Relics being revealed, greatly exceeding the value of what was offered in their first transaction, including some from rare Spirit Realm creatures.
When Shaun presented the Lizardman Leader’s Extraordinary Relic, the Succubus couldn’t help exclaiming in surprise, muttering, "Legendary Relic!"
Though lacking the Law of Destiny, it was still a Legendary Relic.
She raised her head in astonishment at Shaun, seemingly trying to discern any changes or differences in him, but to her disappointment, she could perceive nothing, only sensing that this human had become more powerful.
Shaun said flatly, "I entrust these items to you for handling."
"I need Soul Stones as soon as possible."
With the previous negotiation experience, Shaun knew the Succubus before him was clever, so he negotiated no further, directly entrusting all these spoils to her.
The Succubus should know what to do.
Upon hearing his words, Veronica showed a hint of delight, suddenly becoming eager and attentive, even sitting next to Shaun. She leaned forward slightly, inadvertently revealing a crevice of her snow-white ample bosom, smiling warmly, "Master Shaun trusts me so much, I certainly won’t let you down."
"If master urgently needs Soul Stones, one could borrow a portion from the Purgatory Fire Horn. I will do my best to satisfy your demands."
Shaun shook his head, "No need for now."
"Just handle these things as you see fit, and transfer the Soul Stones to me once they’re sold."
At the moment, Shaun didn’t have an urgent need for a lot of Soul Stones; his primary intent was investing in the Fire Burning Demon of the Alchemy Path.
The individual was truly a talent.
Shaun planned to invest in its Hellfire. If possible, he had some bold ideas that would require the help of Transcendents of the Alchemy Path to realize them.
The creations of the Fire Burning Demon were indeed powerful, capable of severely wounding even Legendary Monsters!
Abyss City truly housed many hidden talents.
Although Shaun said no need, the Succubus before him casually lifted a hand, and soon a small demon delivered a large bag filled with Soul Crystal Stones. With an intent slightly resembling charm or sincere service, she smiled, "Here are five thousand Soul Stones, Master Shaun can use them for urgent matters."
"If it’s not enough, I’ll find another way."
She was indeed a very clever person, Shaun almost wanted to recruit her. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
Because Aemon mentioned yesterday that with Shaun’s current ability, he could start to manage a tower independently. As a Transcendent on the Mage Path, Shaun’s next essential skill was creating Curios, and eventually, he would have many items to divest.
Powerful Casters generally have many followers, not necessarily a master-servant relationship, but more of a subordinate relationship. Shaun admired this Succubus named Veronica, as she suited doing many things Shaun himself found inconvenient.
