The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 587 Fairy Water Luo Family
The abdominal cavity was cut open, and what appeared before Richard was a mass of twisted and deformed internal organs.

The old Taoist's organs were so dirty that they looked like a giant tumor. If he had not become a first-level creature, which could survive by absorbing energy from the air, the old Taoist would have starved to death because his digestive system was completely distorted.

"It shouldn't be."

Richard looked at the strange structure in front of him, his eyes full of confusion.

Even if this fairyland civilization took the path of spiritual evolution, it would not distort its body into this state.

This structure can neither allow the energy cycle to store more capacity nor mobilize energy faster, so it is completely useless.

"It's not possible that these natives copied it incorrectly?" A ridiculous thought flashed through Richard's mind.

When this messy organ complex was cut open, a foul smell instantly rushed into Richard's nostrils, and thick green fluid spurted out of the wound like a small fountain.

Richard frowned slightly.

This stench was not an ordinary stench, but closer to the stench of a corpse. And this old Taoist had just died less than an hour ago, and he was also a level 2 creature, so there shouldn't be such a smell at this point. Unless...

"Could it have rotted while alive?"

Richard continued to dissect, separating the organs from the complex as much as possible. However, this complex was no longer something that could be separated by ordinary surgical techniques. Different organs were directly fused together, and cells from four or five organs could even appear in the same area.

At the end of the dissection, Richard had given up dividing the organs and instead simply cut them neatly into cubes.

After completing the dissection of the complex, Li looked at the pieces of flesh and fell into deep thought.

His guess was correct, the internal structure of this creature had actually decayed before he died. The chaotic flesh structure caused a large number of cells to be deprived of nutrients, and without the supply of nutrients, these cells could not divide normally and could only die little by little.

And because of the existence of energy circulation, this body will not die completely. His internal organs are rotting, but his brain can function normally because of the energy supply.

It can be said that this Taoist was a living dead during his lifetime.

"It's too weird." Richard shook his head. "We must get a new specimen."

Although Richard's intuition told him that the Taoist priest was probably right and that his body became like this because of his Taoist magic, as a wizard, Richard never blindly followed his intuition.

He needed new examples to confirm his intuition.

"The research on Taoism must be stopped first."

The Taoist's physical abnormalities sounded an alarm for Richard. He had to be on guard against others. If this Taoist technique had been backdoored or tampered with, it would be difficult for Richard to discover it with his current level of knowledge.

His knowledge of transmutation was not strong enough and his experience was too limited. As a great wizard, except for the knowledge of flesh and blood, for which Richard could now be called a master among masters, his knowledge in other areas was mostly still at the level of a three-ring wizard.

However, there is no loss for Richard to temporarily stop his research on Taoism. He can focus all his energy on the study of the relics of the forerunners and life editing.

In humanity's ancient past, our ancestors evolved into many forms that are now invisible, but the core fragments of life that expressed them still exist.

After ten years of research, Richard has made some progress in mastering life editing. He is currently planning to selectively express these ancient core fragments to construct a form he named "perfect human".

……

"Drink!"

The knife flashed with a low roar, and a bright light flashed in the air. Then blood splattered, and a headless corpse fell to the ground with a thud.

In the bamboo forest, Bai silently put away his sword. Around him, a group of warriors in brocade clothes lay dead on the ground, and their blood almost dyed the ground red.

Along the way, he killed many people, some of whom let him go, but some did not.

Bai whistled.

The next moment, a low sound of horse hooves came from afar and soon turned into a pitch-black horse running to Bai's side.

Bai climbed onto the horse, put on the hat on his back, and continued to move forward along the road.

Passing through the bamboo forest, the dazzling sunlight made Bai couldn't help but squint his eyes.

The scent of peach blossoms wafted in the breeze. In the distance, in a large peach forest, a mountain city built on the mountain almost surrounded the entire mountain peak. Immortals like mountains, so almost all noble families will build their headquarters on the mountain. Even if there is no mountain, they will create one.

At the foot of the mountain city is a huge city where millions of people live.

Not all noble families are warriors, and if ordinary people want to live a luxurious life, they naturally need a large number of servants. But servants also need to eat, drink, defecate and urinate, which requires more people to serve.

Therefore, there are almost no powerful families hiding in the deep mountains and old forests in this world. All families have a city under their feet as their subordinate city. The bigger the subordinate city, the stronger the family will be.

The city in front of us has a population of several million people. This is an exaggerated number even among the noble families. Those who can own such a large city are all "superior" noble families who can compete for the immortal land - there are also different levels among the noble families.

"Finally arrived?"

Richard's voice rang in Bai's ears. During this period, except when he encountered a strong enemy, Richard would occasionally speak. The rest of the time, Richard was silent as if he was asleep.

Bai looked towards the city in the distance. Although his natural eyes could not see clearly, the artificial eyes given to him by Richard could see the flag with the word "Luo" planted on the city wall.

"Xianshui Luo Family... This family is quite capable. The place they chose has good feng shui, which is very suitable for setting up the formation."

With the help of Bai's eyes, Richard saw the terrain around Xianshui Luo's family clearly. Although the mountain where Luo's family was located was man-made, the rich water veins around the city were natural.

According to the strange tricks Richard learned from the wild orcs, this place is naturally suitable for connecting heaven and earth.

Bai was somewhat speechless about Richard's evaluation. This evil ghost wouldn't think that he was going to kill the Luo family and rescue the young master. "Evil ghost, the Xianshui Luo family and the Chengshan Quan family are relatives. The Quan family was also a top-grade family hundreds of years ago, but the talent has declined in recent years, so it has become a middle-grade family.

The Xianshui Luo family and the Quan family have always been firm allies. "

"Isn't that even more suspicious?"

"..."

Richard's words made Bai fall into silence. The young master of the Quan family was killed just after awakening his bloodline, and the young master happened to be rescued by the Xianshui Luo family.

These coincidences seem to be intentional.

"Just suspicious."

"If you are suspicious, you must be prepared. I am counting on you to get me more specimens."

As he spoke, a spatial rift appeared in Bai's artificial palm, and a bottle of magic potion, thirty-six formation flags, and a tightly sealed box fell out.

"Don't rush over. Take the potion first and upgrade to a level three creature. Then plant the flags according to the position I told you. Then you can go find your young master without any worries."

Looking at the things Richard sent, Bai didn't know what to say.

Although he had always called Richard an evil ghost, Bai could clearly feel that Richard was no different from an ordinary person except for his scary appearance. Even compared to those anthropomorphic children of noble families, Richard's behavior of studying corpses seemed particularly gentle.

"Thank you."

Bai thanked him in a low voice.

Richard did not respond. This was just a piece of cake for him. After owning a world and a race loyal to him, the resources he could mobilize were astronomical.

What he showed through his fingers was more than what he gave to Bai.

After finding a secluded place, Bai drank the potion Richard sent him. Then, a powerful vitality began to permeate his body from his abdomen.

Under the influence of this life force, his cells began to tremble wildly. The cells that could not bear it began to break rapidly, while the cells that could bear it began to divide at an alarming speed.

This process was extremely painful, and even Bai couldn't help but grimace in pain.

I don’t know how much time had passed before Bai opened his eyes tiredly.

At this moment, his clothes were soaked with a layer of sticky liquid, which became hard as the wind dried. His body also became skinny.

But Bai could feel that beneath this skinny body, there was a force that was strong enough to crush him.

In the distance, the sun is setting.

"An afternoon?" Bai's voice was a little hoarse.

"Wrong, it's twenty-nine hours. I originally estimated it to be three days, but I didn't expect you to hold on without passing out."

During this day and night, Bai has been trying to regulate his energy cycle and maintain the stable operation of the energy cycle as much as possible. This has greatly accelerated the evolution.

Bai looked at the sunset and stood up.

"Where should these flags be placed?"

"Go north first, and I will tell you little by little."

……

"Guard?"

The gatekeeper warrior of Luojia Mountain City looked at Bai's denied visiting card and looked at Bai in confusion.

Bai was wearing a straw hat on his back, a straw raincoat on his body, a thin face, and a sword on his waist. He didn't look like a so-called guard at all. If anything, Bai looked more like a wandering knight.

"Yes, I am the bodyguard of the young master of the Quan family," Bai nodded.

The gatekeeper didn't take it seriously at first, but when he heard the words "young master of the Inu family", he instantly tensed up.

"Then you are late. The young master of the Quan family has been taken away by the Peng family."

The warrior's answer made Bai frown slightly. There was only one Peng family in the world, and that was one of the seven families walking in the fairyland. It was reasonable for the Peng family to take the young master of the Quan family.

But his white nose told him that the guard was lying.

The werewolf's sense of smell is extremely developed, and after Dang Bai became a third-level creature, his sense of smell became even more useful than his vision.

He could easily smell the unnatural secretions from the warrior.

But Bai did not ask any further questions. They were all in the same industry, and he knew very well that these gatekeepers knew nothing.

"Look, you still have to rely on yourself."

Bai ignored Richard's ridicule. After leaving the mountain city, he found a place where no one could see him and moved the fingers of his prosthetic left arm slightly.

The next moment, his body disappeared from the spot.
