Chapter 584: Chapter 166: Crying
Su Changxing put away the gun, smiled, and said, "No rush, let’s see what they do. We don’t need to be afraid of them."
As long as that Great Wizard from Donglin City doesn’t come, then he’s not afraid; they have the ability to fight.
He’s gambling that the Great Wizard is currently too busy to deal with him; all the information indicates that those wizards are preoccupied with other matters.
As for what those matters are, although Su Changxing isn’t certain, he has a rough guess.
The only variable is the so-called Wizard King.
However, the war between the Wizard World and the Black Fog World hasn’t ended yet, so such high-tier beings probably won’t notice this place.
Su Changxing placed a hand on the corpse and froze, furrowing his brows slightly, "This is a dummy, a body double with autonomous consciousness."
Karen’s body was an empty shell, filled with vines beneath.
Previously, he hadn’t realized it was a dummy because he had indeed received a phone notification of the kill.
This "Karen" is less of a dummy and more of a complete personality clone, or an independent life form created by the main body.
Zhou An came closer to inspect Karen’s body on the ground and said dejectedly, "If this is her dummy, then isn’t her true form even more formidable... But I’m not even a match for the dummy."
Su Changxing tossed the corpses of these White Wizards into the Pocket Galaxy, shook his head, and said, "Wizards have significant flaws. Compared to us Extraordinary beings... they’re not as formidable as you imagine."
"Flaws? They seem perfect to me, not only are their bodies strong, but they also know all sorts of witchcraft, they have a wide array of means, unlike me who just wields a sword for chopping things." Zhou An confusedly looked at Su Changxing upon hearing this.
He’s not wrong, wizards do appear to be a perfect force system. In their world, they have fully developed over a long period, reaching a peak.
Su Changxing silently smiled and said, "Hmm, then how do you think I managed to kill these wizards? Their actual strength is around Tier Seven, like that Karen, her real strength should be at Tier Six, just that her clones are slightly weaker."
Zhou An thought for a moment and naturally said, "It doesn’t mean they are weak, it just means Brother Su, you’re just too powerful."
Su Changxing shook his head and said, "It’s not entirely like that. Wizards are indeed a complete force system, vast and complex, but they also appear overly bulky. Not every wizard can choose a witchcraft system that suits them."
"They need to integrate their insights and a series of knowledge to exert their proper combat power... They are like a giant energy aggregate, but it’s hard to unleash that energy."
"In contrast, the Extraordinary system is extremely simple. When you reach Tier Eight, you have at least Tier Eight combat power, and it’s easier to enhance strength compared to wizards."
Zhou An was listening in a fog, but he roughly understood Su Changxing’s meaning and said, "So the Extraordinary system is superior to the wizard system."
Su Changxing nodded affirmatively and said, "That’s right, as long as we can survive, surpassing them is just a matter of time."
He wasn’t misleading Zhou An; he genuinely believed so.
He became a Tier Seven Extraordinary in just a few months.
A wizard probably needs to spend a lot of time and make multiplied efforts to reach this stage.
Those seemingly young wizards are likely over a hundred years old, their power accumulated over time.
The superiority exhibited by the Extraordinary is something the wizards find hard to match!
Su Changxing didn’t know if those wizards realized this, but if they did, the conflict between the two would definitely become sharper.
No one would allow an entity that could threaten them to grow up.
The best way to ensure the continuation of one’s civilization and race is to eliminate all threats in sight!
This is often the greatest source of war, threats, and suspicion.
"Was that food left for me?"
Tao Yi suddenly spoke, looking innocent as she said.
Su Changxing glanced at her somewhat helplessly, "Kind of."
In fact, he was trying to study what differences these White Wizards had.
Zhou An fell into a state of shock, stammering, "She can talk now!"
He knew Tao Yi was an entity akin to an Evil Spirit, but the last time he saw her, she was like a puppet, expressionless, and unable to speak.
Tao Yi turned to stare at him, licking her lips, her voice hoarse, "You look tasty, plump."
Zhou An shook his head repeatedly, saying, "I’m not tasty, all fat, very greasy, and not good for a girl’s figure."
Maintain a figure?
Tao Yi didn’t really understand what Zhou An was talking about. She made a funny face as a greeting and then vanished quietly on the spot.
She didn’t actually disappear but transformed into a transparent state with very low presence.
In this state, her combat power isn’t strong, but she’s also nearly immune to physical damage, akin to a true ghost.
Su Changxing also noticed keenly that her strength had increased since before, her growth speed was astonishing.
"Is this the Undead? It’s really quite perverse, if not restrained, couldn’t it grow indefinitely."
He didn’t find any bottleneck in Tao Yi; it seemed that devouring souls and flesh could continuously strengthen oneself.
However, in this area, he still has some restraints, observing Tao Yi’s changes while feeding her to prevent any unpredictable accidents.
Even though Tao Yi was under his control, if she became too strong, "Soul Shepherd" might not be able to hold her.
He definitely didn’t want to find out what an out-of-control Tao Yi would be like.
Zhou An followed behind Su Changxing, rubbing his head, and asked, "Who is stronger between me and Tao Yi? I shouldn’t be weaker than her!"
Su Changxing looked at him seriously, "You’re probably about equal, your strengths are different. If it really came to a fight, you wouldn’t necessarily lose."
"Really? I knew it." Zhou An appeared relieved.
Zhou An’s sword wasn’t that simple; it had a suppressive effect on beings like Evil Spirits.
Then.
Su Changxing led Zhou An away from there, heading to Anxi Town.
He still needed to do one thing: summon the Doomsday Shop with the points he earned today, purchase some Mysterious Items to make more Bronze Pendants.
They arrived in Anxi Town.
The place was still in chaos, over a dozen patrolling robots were destroyed, but not many people died.
Those White Wizards did show some restraint, seemingly genuinely following their creed.
Ye Yongqiang saw Su Changxing and immediately came over, covering his chest with one hand, still bleeding, and said with guilt on his face, "Leader, I’m sorry, we didn’t manage to keep the attackers; they got away."
He felt it was a great shame, being a guard and yet letting those wizards come and go as they pleased. Although those wizards were strong, it was also due to their negligence.
"Come over here, let me see your injury."
Su Changxing noticed a blood-red vine piercing through Ye Yongqiang’s arm and motioned to him.
This should be Karen’s handiwork.
Ye Yongqiang paused and showed his wound, saying, "This thing seems to be stuck to my flesh. I’m considering whether to chop it off with my arm."
Cutting off an arm requires immense courage; not everyone has a powerful recovery ability like Su Changxing, who can regenerate lost limbs.
"It shouldn’t be necessary."
Su Changxing examined the vine and took out a fragment of a Crying Totem from his pocket, placing it on the vine.
Soon, the vine withered visibly, and when it seemed almost done, he retrieved the Crying Totem fragment.
The vine turned into debris, falling to the ground.
