The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 582 The Devil's Contract

Ding, clang, ding... The sound of swords was as chaotic as the sound of falling rain, mixed with the roars of warriors, the screams of the wounded, and the sound of swords cutting through human bodies, splashing blood.

On the battlefield, a group of orcs with wolf heads and human bodies were fighting.

where is this?
A gray-haired werewolf stood there blankly.

"Bai! Protect the young master!"

A familiar roar sounded behind Bai. He turned around and saw an old werewolf stuffing a child into his hands. The old werewolf then turned around and started fighting with the werewolves around him whose faces he couldn't see clearly.

Young Master? Protect the Young Master!
Bai's confused consciousness shook violently, and then he opened his eyes and sat up suddenly.

"Little Lord!"

Bai looked around in confusion. He was not on a bloody battlefield, but in an old-looking room. Not far away, an old werewolf was boiling medicine.

"Without the young master, you are the only living person in the wild."

The old werewolf took the casserole off, poured out a bowl of black liquid that smelled very bitter, and then came to Bai's side.

"Drink some medicine. I don't know what kind of medicine you took, but I think it shouldn't heal the soul. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been unconscious for seven days."

Bai took the medicine and drank it mechanically. The bitter taste blossomed on his tongue, making his chaotic brain slightly clearer.

Chaotic memories began to emerge in his mind.

His name is Bai, or rather, his code name is Bai. As the shadow guard of the young master of the Chengshanquan family, he only has a code name, not a name.

An unknown number of days ago, Chengshan's Quan family was attacked. A group of bandits, who did not know which family they belonged to, slaughtered the entire Quan family. Only he and the young master escaped.

Then... Bai suddenly lowered his head, and a sharp pain like a knife or an axe interrupted his thoughts.

Suddenly, Bai looked at his left arm.

At this moment, there was only a wrapped broken wound where his left arm had originally been.

"My left arm... is broken?"

"Hmm? That's quite interesting."

The old werewolf came to the other side of the room and took down a very exquisite and gorgeous metal prosthesis from the shelf.

"If you don't know your own broken arm, then where did it come from? I've traveled a lot in my early years, and I've seen a lot of things in the market. I've even seen Taoist tools from the fairyland."

The old werewolf placed his arm next to Shiro.

"But this is the first time I've seen such a delicate arm."

Bai looked at his arm, and suddenly a sentence flashed through his mind. He didn't understand it, but he knew the meaning.

"The deal is done. I'll give you power and you'll help me do things."

A word suddenly appeared in Bai's mind. He searched his body and looked suddenly at the old werewolf on the side.

"Senior, have you ever seen a scroll made of leather? The material is very tough."

The old werewolf shook his head: "No, except for this arm, all you have left is a broken knife and tattered clothes."

Hearing this answer, Bai fell silent.

Memories began to emerge in his mind, and now he knew where his arm came from.

He took the prosthetic limb to his side and examined the delicate object carefully.

The metal prosthesis is silver-white all over, but the outer shell is covered with tiny golden lines like vines.

Although it was made of metal, the arm was as light as if it were made of wood. He clearly remembered that he had used this metal arm to withstand many blows, but at this moment, the surface of the arm was as smooth as a mirror.

"Is this the creation of the evil spirit?" Bai muttered to himself.

"what?"

The old werewolf next to him thought he was talking to him and suddenly responded.

"Nothing. Thank you for saving me, Senior. May I ask, have you heard any news about the Inu family?"

"Chengshan Dog Family?"

The old werewolf was stunned for a moment, then shook his head slightly.

"You are the guard of the Quan family, right? The main family of the Quan family has been destroyed, and the only remaining young master was rescued by the Xianshui Luo family who passed by."

Upon hearing the news, Bai's expression did not change, but his eyes dimmed slightly for a moment.

Was it true that the whole family was wiped out?

Bai got out of bed and bowed respectfully to the old werewolf, saying, "I will never forget your kindness, Senior. But I am only a guard and have no money to repay you. I hope you can forgive me."

"Repay?" The old werewolf frowned. "I am a doctor. It is my responsibility to cure diseases and save lives. Who wants those filthy money? If you keep saying such nonsense, take your tattered clothes and get out of the clinic."

Bai looked slightly embarrassed, thinking to himself, "I really need to learn how to speak."

Bai stood up and waved his hand. A gust of wind tore the gauze on his left arm, revealing the scabbed and sutured wound. He then looked at the joint of the prosthesis and saw that it was not made of metal, but a mass of dormant flesh and blood.

"Are you in such a hurry to die?" The old werewolf's tone became blunt because of Bai's offense just now. "Your soul is not yet healed from its injuries. If you meet a Taoist master again, you will be summoned to die."

spiritualism?

Bai smiled bitterly in his heart, it would be great if his soul could be summoned away.

After making a deal with the evil ghost, his soul no longer belonged to him. Without refutation, Bai just calmly connected the prosthesis to the broken part. The moment the broken part touched the flesh, the dormant flesh of the prosthesis instantly woke up and took the initiative to connect with the broken part.

The intense pain made Bai's expression change slightly, but soon the pain disappeared.

The energy flowed into the prosthesis along the meridians, and the next moment, an extraordinary energy wave erupted on the prosthesis.

Seeing that Bai refused to listen, the old werewolf frowned again, thinking that it was really hard to persuade the damned ghost with kind words, and that his bowl of medicine was wasted.

He knew exactly what Bai was going to do, and because he knew it clearly, he knew that Bai would definitely die.

Since the arrival of the Fairyland ten thousand years ago, ending the rule of the last White Wolf King, this world is no longer a world of warriors. The immortality method passed down from the Fairyland - Taoism, not only allows ordinary people to live longer, but also has a power far beyond the warriors' practice method.

In front of Taoism, warriors are as fragile as reeds.

But the fairyland is high and mighty, and the Taoist magic is naturally extremely precious. Apart from the seven fairylands, there are very few Taoist magics circulating in this world.

However, almost all of Bai's injuries were caused by Taoism.

"Alas, how long will those half-human, half-ghost monsters continue to wreak havoc on this world?"

The old werewolf sighed, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Bai standing there motionless, his eyes distracted, as if his soul had been taken away.

……

In the dark spiritual space, Bai looked around vigilantly. He had seen this scene before. When he made a deal with the evil ghost, he was in such a space.

"Finally woke up."

Bai turned around and looked at the source of the sound. In front of him, a creepy monster was looking at him leisurely.

This monster looked like a werewolf that had been plucked out of hair and drained of blood. It was extremely pale and almost hairless. There were no ears on either side of its head, and its mouth seemed to have been chopped off by a huge axe, barely protruding.

Bai couldn't imagine what kind of torture this evil ghost had gone through in his life to become what he was now.

"Evil Richard, we meet again." Bai said as calmly as possible.

Evil ghost... Hearing this name, Richard felt a strong sense of helplessness in his heart.

In the goblin world, he still had the charming aristocratic look, but in this new world, he became a hairless evil ghost.

"It's just an evil ghost, call me whatever you want." Richard waved his hand and decided to let go of this little detail.

He is more or less a god, and gods should be magnanimous.

"What's the matter that you summoned me here?" Bai looked at Richard nervously. Although he was considered a top-notch master in the martial arts world, compared with the evil ghost in front of him, he felt that his strength was no different from that of a baby.

"Oh, that's right."

Richard snapped his fingers, and a projection appeared in the mental space. The content of the projection was Bai, but the color of Bai's left eye had changed.

"I need an eye to help me see the world. The last time I gave you the prosthesis, the eye was not ready yet. Now the eye is ready, you can install it."

Looking at the projected image, Bai couldn't help but clench his fists.

That's the price of the deal.

For the sake of power, he has become the plaything of the evil spirit.

"I will," Bai whispered.

"Very cooperative," Richard looked at Bai in surprise, "Most people would be very resistant to this kind of transformation before they have seen it before."

Bai's expression was very calm, but the conviction in his words was shocking.

"You give me the power to protect the young master, and I'll give you everything. This is our deal. I won't break it, and I hope you won't either."

"..."

Bai's words caused Richard to fall silent again.

How could he explain to the native in front of him that he was not the devil that seduced living beings in myths and legends? The contract he signed was just a simple servant contract.

He didn't even use a slave contract.

"Never mind. It's up to you."

Richard looked at the native in front of him, who looked like a living creature on the outside but was actually made of stone, and gave up on any attempt to explain himself.

Anyway, Bai's role is just to help him understand this world and support a puppet force.

His real target is the young master he wants to protect, and Bai is just a bridge.

"By the way, when you give me the eyes later, I will also give you a pendant. This pendant is a mental protection magic suit that can ensure that you ignore mental attacks equivalent to 5,000 energy levels. Uh... you can think of it as a defense against attacks on the soul."

Bai nodded slightly without saying anything.

Richard felt helpless. He issued so many contracts, why did he only use this stone?
"Forget it, let's go."

After saying this, Richard left Bai's soul.

When he opened his eyes again, Richard's consciousness had returned to his body. The room he was in was a study, with a bookshelf on each side behind him, and between the two bookshelves was a huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Richard stood up and walked to the window. Outside the window was the boundless dark starry sky.

The floating city beneath his feet, with a diameter of ten kilometers, was like a speck of dust in this vast space.

"No matter how many times you see this scene, it still makes you feel terrified."
