Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!-Chapter 1118 - 103: Defiance Across Tiers!
According to its final description, it is suggested that as long as you don’t make eye contact with that wisdom tooth or make defensive gestures of rejection, you can avoid completing the ritual?
You have to know, without this "Aphrodite’s Wisdom Tooth," what is a mere Ghoul?
Everyone knows that Xu Longxiang excels at fighting above his level; a mere Tier 2 is no match for him whatsoever!
If I can take down the old guy, "Aphrodite’s Wisdom Tooth" would surely be mine alone, and that’s a Divine Relic!
Could it even possibly contain a Divine Attribute Crystal inside? Otherwise, why all the references to ’divine’?
This audacious thought involuntarily surfaced, and Xu Shu couldn’t help but lick his lips.
Divine Attribute Crystals, these things are exceedingly rare.
They’re so rare that even a City Lord would stop at nothing, betraying the entire city and all humankind, just to obtain one.
No Tier 3 would remain unmoved upon learning the whereabouts of a suspected Divine Attribute Crystal.
Xu Shu is only human and naturally has the desire to become stronger.
Although Shui Longyin had promised that if he acquired the treasures within the "Wulaoxuan Sect," he would give Xu Shu the Divine Attribute Crystal inside.
But who can be sure of something like "if"?
Opportunities are for those prepared, and right now, the wisdom tooth is an opportunity!
With this in mind, Xu Shu was eager to try.
However, since he had been tricked and killed once by that Ghoul, he was still hesitant.
Could I be guessing wrong??
Could there be any flaws?
When it comes to one’s own life, there can be no room for error; a mistake means death!
So, Xu Shu immediately propped his head and meticulously replayed the scenario dozens if not hundreds of times in his mind, assessing the risks of his action.
Thanks to his powerful logical thinking, during this process, he remembered the scene from multiple angles, over and over again.
All the characteristics of the "Aphrodite’s Wisdom Tooth," everything around the "Ghoul," the layout of the room, etc., all appeared in his memories, and he completely understood them.
He even remembered precisely how many corpses the loli was devoured by the Ghoul, and how many drops of liquid were on the floor.
After this powerful brainstorm and death replay, Xu Shu finally reached a conclusion.
This wisdom tooth, despite being powerful, is not something that can be used as a direct attack method, and it has considerable restrictions in activation!
It’s not just the sight of the ’confession ritual’ and smile, but even the process of using it to ’initiate the ritual’ must have activation requirements.
The old man’s inexplicable, improper stubbornness and those burst, continuously inflating lips on the floor are necessary steps for the ritual activation!
Understanding this, the screen driven by the upgrade went dark.
But Xu Shu’s eyes lit up, like the brightest star in the night sky.
"This should be it! The wisdom tooth cannot activate on its own but needs the holder to lead it."
"As long as I strike first, I can completely take him down before the old man activates the ritual."
"Of course, the prerequisite is that the action must be fast, accurate, and ruthless!"
"If I miss, I must retreat immediately, with no hesitation, or I will die." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"Hiss, thinking about it, I feel like a Warrior turning into an assassin, the risk is not small... but it’s worth a try, considering it’s a Divine Relic!"
In pursuit of wealth, Xu Shu has always been extremely cautious, but he’s not indecisive.
With over ninety percent confidence, he immediately stopped hesitating and erased all the text he had input.
[Prompt: You have declined Shui Longyin’s team-up invitation.]
"What happened? Did something happen to you?" Shui Longyin sent a private message.
"I’m fine, I’ll tell you later."
Xu Shu replied casually, then closed the upgrade network, left the small forest, and strode toward Zuyu Square!
Upon reaching his destination, he did not rush to attack.
The Tai Chu Scroll usage has been exhausted, and he cannot afford to be careless; everything must follow his optimal route!
Following the process remembered from the last time, Xu Shu timed his movements, searching floor by floor starting from the first floor.
The live pigs spraying excrement in the kitchen, the morning dance of the female attendants in the lobby, the adulterous female boss on the second floor, the small casino on the third floor, and the twenty-six-year-old female guest on the fourth floor shouting ’where’s my husband’...
All these anticipated encounters, like scenes from a movie, were "discovered" by Xu Shu once again.
He searched floor by floor, pausing briefly on the fourth floor, then continuing, finally stopping on the twelfth floor.
In room 1208 of this floor, next to the sofa, sat an elderly man in a wheelchair.
He was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, his hair sparse, his skin withered, his eyes cloudy, breathing rapidly, and his facial expression extremely twisted, looking like he was about to die from illness.
Ka!
The door clicked open, and a well-dressed young assistant walked in.
"Mr. Steve, your private caregiver doctor has arrived. Please patiently accept the treatment."
With that, the young assistant brought in a pair of sweetly dressed twin girls.
They seemed quite bewildered, not knowing what they were about to face, standing there haplessly yet obediently.
"Remember, listen to Mr. Steve and don’t disappoint your parents." The young assistant instructed the girls.
Seeing the two girls nod timidly, he then bowed again, slowly retreated, and locked the door behind him.
