Chapter 126 023: Sweep
After the battle, Roshi walked into the big house of Badr.
Below the big house is a basement of about two hundred square meters, which is Bader's laboratory. It contains a variety of materials and equipment used for blood research.
Eyeballs soaked in jars, giants' hearts, and even some limbs of hands and feet.
Looking around the dark room that looked like a biochemical laboratory, Luo Xi teased Bader on the side: "You have quite a lot here."
At this moment, Balder had shrunk back to human form, his limbs were broken by Roche, his skin was charred like a piece of charcoal, and he was held powerlessly in the hands of the skeleton servants summoned by Roche.
Faced with Luo Xi's teasing, he just remained silent.
Luo Xi picked up a petri dish filled with some unknown blood cells and looked at it. He asked casually, "Tell me, why are you keeping an eye on Fengxi City? What is the purpose of spreading the plague here?"
Madness is only a superficial illusion of dark wizards. In reality, they are not much different from ordinary wizards. They always have a purpose in doing everything.
Balder remained silent.
Luo Xi controlled the skeleton servant to pick up a dagger and stabbed him twice. Although the pain was obvious, Balder still did not reveal a word.
Luo Xi was surprised and said, "You are quite tight-lipped. Is there anything that is worth your keeping silent?"
After a pause, he said nonchalantly, "But it doesn't matter. It's easy to make you speak in the field of magic. I also carry a soul-guiding candle with me. I can just search your soul directly later."
Finally, Balder could no longer pretend to be dead.
He sneered: "Don't waste your energy. My mentor only asked me to come here to spread the plague. I don't know what his purpose is. It's useless to ask."
Luo Xi raised an eyebrow: "Who is your mentor?"
Balder called out a name: "Nicholas, the Necromancer Tower."
Luo Xi frowned.
He had heard of this name and had even fought against it head-on. Yes, it was the skeleton man who had caused him great pressure and almost put him in a desperate situation on the wizard ship.
Because he had a deep impression of him, he looked up information about the skeleton man after returning to the castle. He would not have known about it until he found out that this terrifying skeleton man actually had a very important background.
His name was Nicholas Dougal, originally a wizard from the South Coast Wizarding Domain, and he came from a famous burial ground among the eight faculties of the South Coast.
It is said that he showed amazing magical talent when he first came to the wizarding world, and scored a high score of 96 in the initial assessment. Even compared with Joshua, who had a fourth-level talent, and Luo Xi, who had cheating skills, he was only two points behind.
With such results, it would be easy for him to enter the Elemental Castle, but for some reason, he seemed to have a special liking for necromancy and chose the burial ground without hesitation.
After entering the Boneyard, his journey as a wizard was no different from that of the cheating Rosie. He passed all subjects with excellent grades, won numerous awards, and became the undisputed chief of the Boneyard at that time.
After that, he broke through the shackles of an apprentice and became a wizard in just six and a half years. Such an achievement is extremely explosive even in the Elemental Castle, and it is still the fastest record in the Boneyard.
If he continued to develop with such outstanding results, he should have been leading a bright life.
But for some reason, not long after he was promoted to a wizard, this guy seemed to be possessed by a demon. He suddenly massacred the great library in the burial ground, and then sneaked into the dark forest without looking back and joined the camp of the dark wizards.
Perhaps noticing the change in Roshi's expression, a hint of sneer appeared on Balder's face. He said sarcastically, "It seems that you have heard of my mentor's name. Then you should know how terrifying he is. If you kill me, I guarantee that my mentor will..."
"Will they pick up your body and eat it?" Luo Xi interrupted mercilessly, "Sorry, I've already killed one of your mentor's apprentices, so you won't make a difference."
"in addition."
"Your mentor is also on my death list. If given the chance, his fate won't be much worse than yours."
Luo Xi is a person who holds grudges, and he has not forgotten what happened on the wizard ship last time.
Balder's face froze.
He simply stopped talking nonsense with Luo Xi, raised his head, and said with great integrity: "Stop talking nonsense, if you have the guts, then kill me!"
Luo Xi did not refuse, nodded and said: "Okay."
Balder was stunned: "Huh?"
Before he could react, Luo Xi had already bent his finger forward, and a drop of water shot towards Bader's head like a bullet.
“Ka-pop!”
Two short syllables sounded, and the water droplets instantly passed through Balder's head, and the brain cells inside were crushed to pieces under the influence of the water element.
Bader still had a stunned expression on his face, as if he had never expected that Roshi would kill him without saying anything. Didn't he want to ask for information? Didn't he want to hand himself in for a reward?
To be honest, Luo Xi had really thought about these things at the beginning. After all, if he handed over a living dark wizard apprentice, he would definitely be able to get a good reward in exchange. More importantly, it could also contribute to his future prospects.
But then I thought, I can’t even survive in the fucking South Coast Witch Land, so what’s the point of talking about the future?
Compared to calculating future gains and losses, the rewards in front of us are the most practical.
Baldur himself is the greatest reward.
An experimental subject that has undergone a lot of body modifications and integrated the blood of ancient giants is itself a very rare thing. Not to mention his extraordinary research value, Luo Xi has already fully experienced the powerful combat power he has displayed before.
There are spells for resurrecting corpses in necromancy. Isn't it better to kill him and then make him into an undead servant than any reward?
Of course, this is against the rules, but he doesn't hang out in the South Coast Witch Region anymore, so what's the point of talking about rules...
Not only Balder, but also the other experimental materials found here, the magical knowledge left by Balder, etc. Luo Xi was not going to hand them over. He would just report that they were lost in the battle and they would be burned later.
A general is not subject to military orders when he is away from the battlefield. Anyway, no one has time to investigate him in detail.
"After letting go of the restraints and burdens, I feel like I'm living a more enjoyable life. It seems that the suppression from that damn woman may not be a bad thing." Touching his chin, Luo Xi sneered.
Bader was an apprentice who loved to do experiments. He conducted numerous experiments during his lifetime and left behind a large number of knowledge notes, which he compiled into books. There was a small study room on one side of the laboratory, and the bookshelves inside were filled to the brim.
Luo Xi took it and flipped through it, feeling like he had found a treasure.
Although knowledge of bloodline magic is not considered advancement knowledge in the castle, due to the constraints of human ethics and traditional values, wizards in the South Coast Witch Domain generally do not conduct experiments as perverted as the dark wizards.
In terms of the level of understanding of blood analysis, dark wizards far surpass white wizards, and many of the research results here cannot be seen in the South Coast Wizarding Domain.
"I see, the bloodline can be used in this way, is this the charm of body transformation?"
Looking at the bizarre bloodline spells recorded above, Luo Xi just felt itchy. He really wanted to cut a hole in his arm and install some eyes or mouth on it to transform his body.
Luo Xi tried very hard to control his impulse. The transformation felt good for a while, but it was not easy to recover.
"Maybe in the future I can cultivate a body specifically for body modification."
After thinking about it, Luo Xi felt that this was a feasible solution. There happened to be a corresponding spell in necromancy, and he could completely cultivate a "living" body on his own, and complete any transformation he wanted on that body.
"Let's talk about it later." Shaking his head, Luo Xi put the idea aside and returned his mind to the laboratory.
In addition to materials and knowledge, he also discovered another benefit from this trip.
A takeaway that would be very helpful to him at this moment…
