Almighty Alchemist
Chapter 57: Ultimate Secret Technique
Green lay straight on the ground, already full of despair.
He never dreamed that the C-level task specially selected for safety would have the difficulty of a B-level task, no, it was an A-level task. After Green saw Xiuyi release the magic, he finally realized how wrong he was. This young heir of the Dardanelle family is not an ordinary person who does not know magic and martial arts, but a powerful and terrifying devil at all.
He didn't even bother to use magic when dealing with assassins like them, otherwise he could have fought more smoothly.
He is playing with them!
Even his vindictive consumption is fake, it is a bargaining chip to deliberately attract himself. I hate myself for mistakenly thinking that I have mastered the situation, so I used the ultimate secret method to assassinate the opponent. The longer this extreme secret method is used, the more obvious the after-effects. He thought that once he used it, he could instantly kill Xiu Yi, but unexpectedly, Xiu Yi's weird response made him have to delay the extreme secret method. The result was that he was forced to exhaust all his potential, and now he lost even the ability to escape. This is definitely the other party's intention, to torture him in this way.
Green wished to guess the motive behind Xiu Yi's behavior, and regarded everything that happened as a long-planned trap.
Of course, Xiuyi didn't know that the other party's idea was so outrageous, what he was interested in now was another thing...
After pouring the potion into Green, Xiuyi was surprised to find that the potion didn't have much effect. The assassin's body was still convulsed, and the recovery potion only slightly relieved his pain, but could not alleviate the symptoms.
"Huh?" Xiu Yi was a little surprised.
"Father, why doesn't the recovery potion work?" Xu also felt strange.
After thinking for a while, Xiu Yi replied: "The recovery potion is mainly for the recovery of physical damage. He obviously used some special method to stimulate the full strength of the body and burst out at the limit speed. The current situation is the result of excessive body overdraft rather than damage."
Xiu Yi shook her head: "Although this kind of secret technique is powerful, it is costly. If there is no good recuperation afterwards, it is tantamount to consuming one's own life."
Xiu Yi sighed, took out another bottle of potion and poured it down: "This is a vitality potion, it should help your current situation."
This time, the pain on Green's body was significantly reduced.
After a while, Green was surprised to find that he was fine. The boy in front of him actually used a bottle of potion to solve the side effects of the ultimate secret method, which shocked him.
Green himself knew very well that the sequelae of his ultimate secret technique could not be resolved by ordinary medicine. He spent a lot of money to buy some potions from some alchemists, which can relieve the pain of attacks. These agents must be used in combination, the single effect is not obvious, and the price is expensive. But today he saw that Xiu Yi solved his problem with only a bottle of potion, which he never thought of before.
And from the tone of the other party, it seemed that the potion he used for himself was nothing special, it was just a very ordinary existence.
This made Green a little surprised. The young heir of the Dardanelle family did seem to be an alchemist as in the legend, but his alchemy level obviously far exceeded people's perception.
He sat up and looked at Xiu Yi coldly: "I failed, why didn't you kill me?"
With such a good opportunity just now, he couldn't kill the other party. Now that the body has not fully recovered, the opponent has shown the ability to use magic again, and Green has completely given up his fantasy.
Xiu Yi sat under the big tree in a leisurely manner. From his angle, he could clearly see the outline of the other party's face.
This is a man with wolf-like eyes. Even in the current situation, his body has been seriously injured, and his muscles are still tense, without any relaxation. This shows that he is preparing for battle anytime and anywhere, even if there is a slight chance, he will just give up fighting.
The reason why he didn't make a move was obviously because he was surprised by Xiu Yi's approach.
There will never be a person who will show mercy to the assassin who assassinates him.
Assassins are certainly a fearsome name in the dark world, they are cold, ruthless, and cruel, and every target that is targeted by an assassin will tremble. But at the same time, once they fail and fall into the hands of the target, they must suffer pain that others cannot bear. The fates they suffer when they fail are often more dire than the horrors they represent when they are free.
For a moment, Green even thought that the reason why the other party wanted to save him was to make him suffer and torture himself.
Xiu Yi obviously also understood the other party's thoughts, so he didn't approach the other party: "How much is the deal to assassinate me?"
Green was stunned, and then replied: "Three thousand Gold Witts."
"That should be a C-level mission, right?" Xiu Yi was a little uncertain.
Green was also a little surprised. What the other party cared about didn't sound like what a sufferer should care about, but he nodded anyway.
So Xiu Yi began to scratch his head in confusion: "Could it be that you are a C-level killer? That's not right. With your ability, you can completely assassinate a higher level, or even an A-level target."
Green's face turned green, and he finally understood what Huey was concerned about.
He replied helplessly: "I used to be an A-level killer, but I failed three missions, and I have been downgraded to B-level."
"Failed three A-level missions?" Xiu Yi understood a little.
Although the Alliance of Assassins exists only as an intermediary, it still has strict level restrictions on the missions it issues. From the initial D-level difficulty to the top-level double-s mission, not just anyone can take it. This is mainly to prevent some low-level assassins from randomly accepting high-level missions. As a result, the mission will fail, and it will cause trouble for other assassins in execution. Generally speaking, assassins of the same level can only accept missions of the same level. Low-level assassins certainly cannot accept high-level missions, but high-level assassins can accept low-level missions.
The promotion of an assassin does not depend on the level of his own force, but only depends on the completion of the task. Only by completing ten missions of the same level can you advance, and once you fail three times, you will be downgraded. In the same way, the difficulty of the task is not only considering the force of the target person, but also considering multiple comprehensive factors. For example, an ordinary fifth-level warrior is only good enough for a C-level task in terms of strength. But for a person like Hugh Igleser, it's not too much to be rated as A-level.
Even if it is to assassinate a target who is powerless, if there is a strong person around the target, this factor must be taken into consideration, and then a comprehensive evaluation must be made.
Green failed three A-level tasks, and the level was downgraded to B-level. However, the recent B-level tasks seemed simple. After researching, Green found that there were some unknown factors that affected the results, and the risks were high. So Green chose to take on the task of assassinating Siser Darnell. To say that people are unlucky enough to drink cold water, and he gave up the promotion and chose a C-level mission just to make money, but he still encountered such a terrible opponent as Xiu Yi. Green could only sigh helplessly.
Knowing this, Xiuyi also heaved a sigh of relief.
It seems that Green's appearance was just an accident, which means that such A-level killers are unlikely to appear in the future.
After all, the most difficult thing to deal with A-level killers like Green is their excellent concealment ability. Even Xiu Yi couldn't guarantee that he would escape the pursuit this time, and whether he would be able to escape the next time.
"You don't look like the kind of mindless killer, how could you fail three missions in a row?"
When Xiu Yi asked this question, Green could only smile wryly: "If I say, it's purely bad luck, believe it or not."
"Then you have to speak out and listen."
Anyway, the fish was on the cutting board, so Green simply talked about his past.
Green's real name is Green King, an orphan from the slums. Poor and chaotic, rich and prostitution, this has been the case since ancient times. Green has lived in a slum since he was a child, and has seen a lot of darkness in the world. Fighting, robbery, sneak attack, and even murder are commonplace for Green. When he was seven years old, he killed a boy who was four years older than him, and got a huge reward from the other party-a book on fighting qi cultivation.
He went so far as to train himself and become a real warrior without anyone's guidance.
It must be admitted that Green is a genius in the training of warriors. It is a pity that not every genius can go down smoothly. There is never a shortage of geniuses in the world, but there are very few strong ones. To become a peak samurai requires a lot of time, money and energy to cultivate, and a good teacher is also needed. Green longs to get rid of poverty, and to realize this dream, he must become a senior warrior. But if you want to become a senior warrior, you must first have the support of a lot of money. It became a vicious cycle, and to fix it, Green chose to become a killer.
Just like hunting those hooligans in the slums, the cruel living environment has created Green's perverted stealth skills and assassination ability. In his samurai training, almost all his abilities were used for assassination. It was under such circumstances that he improved himself step by step, and his strength reached the sixth-level warrior, and at the same time he became a recorded A-level assassin in the League of Assassins. In Green's most successful assassination record, he even killed an earth warrior.
But this guy has been very, very unlucky in the past six months, and missed three times in a row. After finally becoming an A-level killer, he fell back to the B-level ranks.
Today was his fourth mission failure, and he was directly captured alive by the target. He might not even have the chance to miss the fifth time.
His four failed missions were all related to luck.
The first mission failed because this guy unfortunately encountered a sky samurai during the assassination. The Sky Warrior is not the target's bodyguard, but a friend who happens to be visiting the target. At the moment Green shot, the sky warrior just appeared. As a result, the mission failed and he was severely injured by the sky warrior. It is already a miracle that he escaped alive.
It was even more depressing when the second mission failed. Who would have thought that the opponent would have a soul rat that could sense killing intent as a pet. This kind of soul mouse has no combat power at all, but it is extremely timid and has a natural keen perception of killing intent. Even the slightest movement can scare it into a frenzy. Assassins like Green approached each other and scared the soul mouse to death. Of course, the target person is alerted by this.
The failure of the third mission was even more depressing. The target was a seventh-level marine warrior. For Green, he had too much confidence in assassinating a sea warrior who was only one level above himself. But who would have thought that the opponent would suddenly upgrade at that fatal moment. Green miscalculated the opponent's strength and made a wrong judgment. His jaw was shattered by the opponent's heavy blow. After three days and three nights of chasing and fleeing, he finally escaped the catastrophe by relying on the ultimate secret method.
But all of these things don't add up to today's bad luck.
The small task that was expected to be easy to grasp turned out to be his last task, and Green could only lament that God did not favor him.
Hearing Green's background, Xiu Yi was a little moved.
He discovered that this Green King, his experience was very similar to his own. And they have exactly the same quality, that is, they never bow to fate. Even in the most difficult circumstances, he will struggle and struggle desperately.
Resilient, hard-working, and dreamy, even a killer is still a human being, possessing everything a human desires.
Xiu Yi is not a soft-hearted person. He has gradually realized that in this world where the jungle preys on the weak, there is nothing that is necessarily wrong or right. Although Green is a killer, he appreciates the quality of the opponent, but this person's luck seems to be really not very good. He is obviously a high-level assassin with great endurance, but he is so downcast that he has to accept a C-level mission for maintenance.
"Do you think this is a very simple task?" Xiu Yi asked with a smile.
"The client provided a message saying that you went to the edge of the Land of God's Grace, alone and without guards. Who would have thought that you would be so powerful. I would have known that I was willing to accept the task of assassinating Xiu Yiglaer."
"Assassinate Hugh Igleser? You said there is another mission to assassinate Hugh Iglesel?" Huey was dumbfounded.
"Yes, it's worth 20,000 Gold Wittes."
"Do you know who entrusted it?" Xiu Yi asked with a serious face.
Green rolled his eyes helplessly and replied: "In our profession, we don't ask who the client is. This is the rule. I don't even know who the client who assassinated you is. How could I know who the client who assassinated Hugh Igles is."
Thinking about it, he suddenly felt wrong, and Green asked a little confused: "Why don't you ask me who placed the order to assassinate you, but instead only care about the assassin's market?"
Xiu Yi curled her lips: "Because I don't need to ask, I was the one who placed the order."
Green was completely stunned.
———————————————
The task of assassinating Siserda Daniel was indeed assigned by Huey to Brian Buckler.
In order to complete the practice of the way of the samurai, it is not enough to just fight monsters, but also to experience the choice between life and death. It is best to fight life and death with some people of similar level to help yourself improve. In addition, the assassination of Sissadaniel was not just for the sake of cultivation, there was a deeper meaning behind it.
Of course, Xiu Yi would not be so stupid as to invite those high-level assassins to deal with him. The strength of Assassins cannot be judged by rank. The level only determines the size of the strength, not the ability to use the strength. Assassins are precisely the ones who know how to use power best. In Xiu Yi's original idea, a C-level mission with a price of 3,000 Gold Witts could just attract many mid-level warriors without attracting stronger opponents, which was the most suitable standard. Moreover, I am sure that I can survive this level of assassination. In the end, as long as I cancel the entrustment, all the troubles will naturally disappear, and even the money will not be spent. This approach can not only train yourself, but also choose your opponent, without worrying about the future, why not do it?
It's just that he didn't expect that the first wave of people who came to assassinate him included a high-level assassin, which made him almost lose his life during the battle, which was unexpected.
The reason why he kept Green from killing him was because he wanted to ask if the client had changed the price, and Buckler wanted to give him a higher-level test? Or maybe they miscalculated the assassination organization's market? Could it be that the current assassination business is highly competitive, so the high-level assassins have also reduced their prices?
But he didn't expect the answer to be like this, which made Xiu Yi extremely depressed. Of course, when Green knew that this was Xiu Yi's cultivation and he had entrusted him, his mood was no longer as simple as being depressed. He wished he could swallow the young man in front of him alive.
This boy is an out-and-out devil, and he is more and more convinced of his previous judgment-the boy didn't use all his strength to fight, he was just playing with everyone, he was playing a death game.
Xiu Yi is not interested in caring about his mood, he is still in a complicated mood. Because among the known answers, he also got another unexpected answer, that is, someone also placed a commission order for the identity of Xiu Yiglaer.
This is absolutely true, but Xiu Yi did not do it.
He wasn't that stupid, he positioned himself as the target of a senior killer.
Who is trying to kill himself?
Reims Empire? Impossible, Xiu Yi quickly denied the answer. Who else could it be?
Xiu Yi really couldn't think of what kind of forces he had offended.
Moreover, no matter how Xiu Yi looked at this commission to assassinate him, he felt that there was an evil spirit in his bones. To know the commission to assassinate someone, there is a prerequisite, that is, you have to know who he is and where he is.
The identity of Hugh Iglesel has hardly been publicly revealed in this year, because as long as it appears, it will definitely be a bloodbath. In this case, commissioning the assassination of a wanted fugitive is actually meaningless at all.
Does anyone know where Hugh Iglesle is?
It was like those warriors who were provoked by Christine to search for Xiu Yi all over the world, but Xiu Yi didn't meet any of them in the end.
What's more, there was an empire chasing and killing him, and the client would simply take off his pants and fart if he did so—it was unnecessary.
But anything that involves enough money is never innocent. In particular, this incident itself has actually had a considerable impact on Xiu Yi——it has hindered his ability to reveal his identity in the future.
Thinking of this, Xiu Yi's mind was suddenly sober.
He realized that the person who ordered to assassinate him might really have something to do with the Lance Empire. This person must know very well that the empire is no longer able to hunt down Xiuyi like before, so he no longer puts his hopes on the empire's public strength.
For the same reason, he probably also guessed that Xiu Yiglaer would show up publicly sooner or later, so he placed the order.
So, this person's purpose is not necessarily to kill himself, but to force himself not to show up publicly?
What kind of person doesn't want to be seen in public?
Franc Prince Richard Kleiman? Unlikely, it doesn't look like it's going to do him any good.
Emperor Strick? It is possible, after all, Xiu Yiglaer's public appearance will damage the face of the Lance Empire. But the consequences of doing so are too serious. Once Xiu Yi is angered again, the price he has to pay will be even higher than now.
Who on earth wanted to kill herself and used such a strange method? This question will not be answered for a while. Xiuyi thought for a long time and couldn't find a clue and could only give up. Anyway, he is used to being chased and killed, and he doesn't care if more people trouble him. Then another thing aroused his interest.
"The sudden burst of physical potential you used just now is very interesting, how did you learn it?" Xiu Yi asked him.
"I researched it myself." Green replied helplessly: "I once killed an alchemist and got some research materials from him on stimulating the human body's potential. I combined my own situation and developed this method that can temporarily stimulate the body's strength, but you can see the consequences. It can only last for 30 seconds. Once the time passes, I will be in pain and need the alchemist's potion to solve it. It requires a lot of money. This ability has saved my life many times, but it also allows me to use the money I earn to buy medicine. Damn, those alchemists are really black-hearted , A bottle of potion costs hundreds of Gold Witts, it’s a money grab. Maybe I shouldn’t be obsessed with the training of a warrior, and change my career to be an alchemist.” When Green said this, he became very angry, and even forgot about his current situation.
In fact, it takes far more to become an alchemist than a warrior, and the wealth consumed to train a top alchemist can even buy a city. Green can only talk about this kind of thing.
It was Xiuyi who was very interested in hearing the secret method invented by Green himself. He knew that there were some alchemists who had a lot of research on discovering the potential of the human body, and some medicines that cultivated and stimulated the potential of the human body were researched by such alchemists. However, the purpose of alchemists in researching this aspect is mainly to stimulate the body's strength through potions, but it is rare to hear of Green's use of certain methods to stimulate the body's potential.
"That doesn't sound like a traditional alchemist."
"Indeed, that's a very different guy." Green replied honestly: "The alchemist I killed was different from most alchemists. That guy never dreamed of becoming a mage. He believed that since alchemy can help people without magic talent become magicians, it can also help some weaker people become warriors."
"Using alchemy?" Xiu Yi was simply too surprised. Using alchemy to help people become warriors, God knows he had never thought about it before. The world is so big, full of wonders, every alchemist has his own unique dream, which also gave birth to all kinds of strange alchemy.
The alchemist killed by Green was such a person, a guy who was eager to use alchemy to make himself a powerful warrior.
Of course, his research could not be completed. Instead, Green created his own extreme secret method through his research.
"Can you tell me about this?" Xiu Yi was very interested in this kind of alchemy and Green's ultimate secret.
"You want to learn?" Green was a little surprised. The young man in front of him didn't seem to want to kill himself, but was quite interested in discussing alchemy with him, which made him feel that things were a little funny.
"Of course, don't forget that I'm also an alchemist, and I'm also a samurai. If there is a way for me to quickly improve my strength, I'd be happy to do so. Electra can invent magic patterns, allowing people to release magic freely. Maybe one day I can invent a certain method to make people store more grudge."
"That's an unrealistic dream." Green retorted unceremoniously.
"Before Electra invented the magic pattern, I guess everyone would not believe that he could do this. The reason why people can become the masters of the world is not because we are stronger than Warcraft, but because we have wisdom and creativity, and we are good at borrowing foreign things." Huey smiled and patted Green on the shoulder: "Consider my suggestion. I need the alchemist's research and your ultimate secret method. If you agree, I can let you go."
"Why should I trust you?" Green was not dazzled by this beautiful promise. In the situation where people are for the knife and I am for the fish, all the promises will be greatly discounted.
"Just because I still need you, Mr. Green. We all know that in the current situation, the only reason you can survive is that you have value. As long as a person is valuable, he will not die so easily. In addition to your research materials and your method, I also need you to do one thing for me. As long as you can do this for me, I will give you a rich reward, including potions that can relieve your pain. You will no longer be oppressed by those alchemists and give all your hard work money to others. If I can research a new one A better way to stimulate potential, I can even teach you this method."
"What's the matter?" Green frowned, and he had a feeling that this matter might not be easy to handle.
Xiu Yi smiled secretly: "It's actually very simple, just continue to carry out your mission and assassinate me! But this time, I want you to complete your assassination at the designated time and place!"
