I'm a proper student; I only take nine kinds of potions every day.

Chapter 169 (8/10 Seeking Monthly Tickets) The Power of Fog-Induced Brain Plague + The Joke from the Moron Bar

The moment Martin spoke, a strange fluctuation emanated from the shadows once more.

Just when Martin thought Ivan would be directly controlled like Hill,

What awaited him was a merciless iron fist.

Splat!

The terrifying punch shattered Martin's skull.

Then the huge, ferocious claw tore Martin's body apart.

In an instant, Martin was torn into more than a dozen pieces, falling to the ground amidst the foul-smelling rain of blood.

Evan's eyes seemed to have spotted something; he instantly grabbed one of the objects from the corpse and put it away.

I don't have time to look at the loot right now.

With Martin's death, all the surrounding skeletal spikes and bronze spikes crumbled and scattered on the ground.

Hill caught his breath and saw Ivan flapping his wings and swooping down, his sharp claws slicing through the chains that were holding Richard.

The black wings on the left stretched forward, and a huge hand directly grasped Richard's body.

You can see that the large feathered hand is so flexible and useful; one wing easily supports Richard's body.

Hill, watching from afar, was filled with shock at Evan's current state.

He teleported over and first confirmed that Richard was indeed still alive.

Then her voice was filled with incredulous amazement.

"Master! Ivan, where did you get these strange wings? Do you have a fourth extraordinary ability?"

Ivan remained in that ferocious, beastly form, his deep, resonant voice emanating from his throat.

"I suppose so! Senior Sister, take Senior Brother and leave here as quickly as possible."

Hill hoisted Richard onto his shoulder and hurriedly asked, "Aren't you coming?"

Ivan's two wings held the other two witchers who were hanging up in his hands.

"To gain official endorsement and protection, you need to gather enough intelligence."

"There are other people hiding inside, and I need to find them and bring them back."

Just as Evan finished speaking, a chilling voice rang out from all directions.

"A bunch of lowlife witchers, so self-important."

"Do you really think you're invincible just because you have temporary fighting power from the potion?"

As soon as the words were spoken, a thick black mist suddenly surged in from all directions.

The fog enveloped the two of them completely.

After being shrouded in mist, Hill's eyes became somewhat dazed in an instant, and he muttered to himself.

"Who am I? Why am I here—"

Faced with this situation, Ivan spoke up directly.

"You are my dear senior sister, you are Hill Adolf."

While speaking, he directly activated the Fog Brain Plague.

The mist that could obscure the gaze of the gods was injected into Hill's mind along with Evan's words, obscuring her brain.

Hill, who had just been lost in confusion, snapped back to reality.

She blinked and could clearly sense that something had entered her mind, but she couldn't explain what it was.

"Senior sister, run!"

Hill nodded vigorously, hoisted Richard's body, and sprinted away at top speed.

Seeing that they were being completely ignored, the gloomy voices from all directions rang out again.

"So the source of the strangeness really was you."

"I'm curious where a brainless brute like you got your mental abilities from?"

This guy seemed to really enjoy talking, and continued on his own without waiting for Evan's reply.

"But it doesn't matter! Once I eat your brain, I'll know all your secrets."

As the other person spoke, Ivan's eyes darted around, and he quickly spotted some clues.

With his current physical condition of 23 points, and the powerful dynamic vision and observation ability brought to him by the Sharp Magic Potion.

He vaguely saw something in the surrounding shadows that seemed to be moving back and forth like mist.

The thing was almost transparent, very well hidden.

If he hadn't been constantly moving, even with 23 points in Constitution and a sharp magic potion, he wouldn't have been able to detect that strange thing at all.

But Ivan did not act rashly at this moment.

Firstly, the other party was still quite far away, and he was also unsure of the other party's physical strength.

Therefore, he was prepared to use some special methods.

Then Ivan said loudly, "You think you can steal the knowledge from me? I doubt you can even comprehend the vast knowledge of humankind."

The voice scoffed, "We ghouls are far more intelligent than you humans."

"We have stronger bodies, more powerful minds, and longer lifespans!"

"We are your superiors!!"

Ivan chuckled, his voice full of disdain: "In that case, let me ask you a fairly standard question: have you ever heard of meteorites?"

The voice scoffed, "Who hasn't heard of meteorites? Even kids these days know what meteorites are."

Just then, Ivan saw the other person's body silently stop about fifty meters in front of him.

So he used a large amount of misty brain plague and injected it into his voice to ask.

"Then let me ask you—"

Why do meteorites always seem to land in the impact crater with such precision?

In an instant, this question, carrying the terrifying infectious power of the foggy encephalopathy, was sent over.

Upon hearing the question, the other person froze on the spot.

Why do meteorites always seem to land precisely in impact craters?

"Because of meteorites—hmm? Yes! Every time a meteorite falls, it ends up in a crater."

"How did it manage to land so precisely in the impact crater?"

"What calculations were made? Is everything the will of the gods?"

Due to the reversal of logic, coupled with the miraculous effects of fog-induced encephalopathy.

Evan saw the other person's body, which had been moving at high speed, suddenly stop and stand there motionless, muttering to themselves.

At that moment, Ivan seized the opportunity and unleashed a terrifying burst of power.

Its beast-like body traversed the fifty-meter distance in a single leap, and its enormous claws instantly seized the creature.

Then Evan noticed that the guy was wearing a peculiar cloak.

He ripped the cloak off, and it quickly turned into a roll of black cloth.

-

Beneath the cloth was a tall, thin ghoul with ulcerated, purple skin all over his body.

Its long face and sparse hair made it look like a skin-and-bones skeleton.

However, this guy also has a ferocious mouth like a ghoul, a pair of small horns on his head, and a sacrificial knife in his hands.

"Ghoul Wizard!"

Upon seeing this outfit, Ivan instantly recognized the guy's identity.

He grabbed the other person's neck with one hand and broke all four of its limbs with the other.

With a sudden, intense pain, the ghoul wizard snapped out of his reverie.

After all, its status is higher than Ivan's.

The ghoul wizard, regaining his senses, was filled with anger and disbelief.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"How did you find me? That Shadow Cloak requires 22 points of Spirit Vision to see!"

"Even those masters who have just completed their advancement couldn't detect me! How did you detect me!?"

"You damned witcher apprentice!?"

Before Evan could answer, it continued to howl.

"And you, you rude brute! What question did you just ask me?! Why did I suddenly freeze up like that?!"

"Why can't I suddenly understand such a stupid question!?"

Ivan's狰狞 face was now full of mockery and sneer.

"What else could it be? It's because you're stupid!"

Upon hearing these words, the ghoul wizard felt as if his heart had been pierced.

It stared wide-eyed and opened its mouth wide, momentarily at a loss for words.

Then, based on the information given to him by the old hunter in his mind, Ivan precisely placed his palm on the middle of the lower jaw of its large mouth.

After struggling for a moment, the ghoul wizard fainted.

Ivan gripped the ghoul wizard's head with his palm, then the silver key emerged from his hand and pierced the wizard's brain without any pause.

Tell me a secret! The bigger the secret, the harder I'll work.

The sound of the silver spoon rang out again.

Ivan whispered, "I'll tell you a huge secret that could affect the entire galaxy."

"Within the Emperor's human empire, there is also a second empire!" (Note 1)

The silver key remained silent for a few seconds, then instinctively twitched twice, seemingly excited by the importance of this secret.

Then the voice of the Silver Spoon rang out: "What secret do you want to know?"

Ivan said, "Give them all the secrets about the coming of the Son of God."

In an instant, the door filled with countless rays of light opened.

Then, three bubbles emerged from it and merged into Evan's consciousness.

"Wow! There was only one bubble before, but this time there are three!"

"It seems this Silver Key is quite interested in the secrets of the Second Empire."

After gathering his memories, Ivan didn't dare to look at them directly here.

With his two wings, he grabbed the two witchers, one in each hand, who were still barely breathing, and carried the ghoul wizard away quickly.

At that moment, a voice came from Erlong on the border: "Ivan, hurry up! Martin was the key to stabilizing this narrow area."

""

"Now that he's dead, this space is quite unstable."

"We need to get out of here as soon as possible! What if those masters find out—"

Ivan rushed over and interrupted, "My dear brother! Please don't make any promises here."

He strode across the border and saw that Richard was still unconscious on the outside, but David, who was injured, had basically recovered.

The group breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Ivan had come out safely.

Then his gaze fell on the pair of rather strange-looking wings behind Ivan.

What appeared to be a pair of wings capable of flight were now gripping two people like two giant hands.

Ivan threw the two off and folded his wings.

"The two are probably witchers from other areas. I rescued them as a way of making a good connection, and they are also one of the witnesses in this case."

David and Erron then each carried a witcher, and the group quickly left along the path they had come from, soon arriving on the ground.

The bright sunlight shone in, creating a stark contrast between the light above ground and the darkness below.

Ivan grinned: "Luckily I stopped the flag in time! Otherwise, we wouldn't have gotten up here so easily."

Although his smile was still as sunny as ever, it was so ferocious and terrifying because the Lion Potion hadn't worn off yet.

The group didn't intend to stay any longer and quickly left the building.

But just as Evan and the ghoul wizard left the building's perimeter...

A sudden scream rang out.

The next instant, everyone immediately felt the entire area begin to shake violently.

Erlong quickly sensed the situation and his expression changed drastically: "Quick, let's go!! That neutral zone is moving rapidly! There's the aura of a master inside!"

"Hurry up!"

Ivan tossed the ghoul wizard he was holding to David in front of him: "You guys get out of here! I'll stay behind and cover your retreat."

None of them expected that the last line of defense would be this ghoul wizard.

It seems that someone has placed some kind of warning device in its body.

The device will be triggered as soon as its body leaves the building area, and the final safety mechanism will activate.

Just as the group was quickly leaving the building, Evan suddenly noticed something strange out of the corner of his eye.

The strange thing struck Hill, who was carrying Richard, at an extremely fast speed.

The people running ahead seemed completely unaware of the attack.

Not enough spiritual vision!

This is an attack from a master!

Evan didn't hesitate at all when he thought of this.

His body sprinted forward at an extremely fast speed; of course, he wouldn't be foolish enough to stand still and block the two of them.

Instead, it charged forward suddenly, using its immense force to send everyone out of the factory's perimeter.

In that split second, Hill narrowly escaped the attack.

Enraged by its failed attack, the shadow turned and struck Ivan directly.

Bang!

An indescribable force appeared out of nowhere, blasting a hole about half a meter in diameter directly into Evan's chest.

Large amounts of blood and fragments of internal organs were splattered everywhere.

However, Evan grinned at this situation.

With the help of the Gecko Potion, the Thirsty Blood's super self-healing ability caused countless threads to shoot out instantly, directly gathering the splashed blood and fragments back into its body.

In just two seconds, the horrific wound that had nearly severed the entire upper and lower body was instantly healed.

Goodbye!

Ivan pointed the middle finger behind him and lunged forward at incredible speed.

Pfft!

The next second, Evan seemed to trip over something and fell face-first to the ground, his face making intimate contact with the stone slabs.

Looking back, he was shocked to find a chain on his foot that had appeared out of nowhere.

The chains tightly bound him to the building's shadow.

Upon closer inspection, the chains resemble bones, seemingly composed of human bones.

And the skull's shape belongs to Martin, whom he killed!
