Chapter 69: Rosa's corpse
Su'en chose a path that led deep into the underground cave. They had entered the city's sewer system, with sewage flowing all around them. Originally, Su'en had intended to go in the direction of the scythe, but now it was also a good opportunity to avoid any potential pursuers.
Although the environnt was foul, the sewage conveniently masked their footsteps.
However, to their surprise, before they could encounter any pursuers or find the scythe, they stumbled upon a corpse in a drainage pipe.
It was the body of a half-naked woman, wrapped in spider webs, pale and lifeless. A large red-eyed spider had pierced her skull with its venomous fangs, feasting on her brain...
Rena wanted to scream in horror when she saw the body, but she rembered sothing and quickly covered her mouth. Her crystal-like eyes trembled with a mixture of grief and sorrow.
The corpse turned out to be none other than Rosa, the female assistant teacher from before.
As Su'en looked at the mist emanating from the body, his eyes lit up. "Hmm... freshly dead?"
With so much knowledge harvested from Jack's body, what about an assistant teacher who could teach the students?
......
This kind of corpse was a treasure to Su'en, its value surpassing that of an ordinary professional's body by a hundredfold.
However, Su'en remained calm and instead squinted at the red-eyed spider that was about to feast. He appraised the monster's attributes and muttered, "Hmm... an elite monster?"
At that mont, the spider also looked back at him.
Su'en thought of sothing but did not avoid its gaze.
In that instant, the six crimson spider eyes stared at him, as if an invisible hand was teasing his soul. But it was fleeting.
At the sa ti, the All-Knowing Eye displayed a negative status effect.
"You have been subjected to a ntal attack. The intensity of the ntal fluctuation is lower than your ntal power, so you have successfully resisted this negative status..."
Su'en looked and confird that, as the All-Knowing Eye had indicated, this elite spider's ntal attack was not enough to pose a threat to his exceptionally high ntal power.
"A high ntal power can resist low-level ntal spells... It seems that as long as I don't get surrounded by the monster horde in this spider's nest, it doesn't seem too deadly for ..."
Encountering a living monster, Su'en deliberately tested so hypotheses.
He now had the confidence to continue searching for the scythe.
However, Rena, who was behind him, was not as lucky. Inadvertently, she made eye contact with the spider and then stood there like a soulless statue.
Moreover, it seed that she saw sothing erotic in her imagination, and her desire surged. Her face quickly flushed, and she even let out so strange moans.
Su'en glanced at Rena, who was standing there with a vacant expression, walking towards the spider. He didn't rush to help her but observed carefully.
As he watched, he analyzed in his mind, "So this is the state after being affected. The monster's ntal attack simply influences desire. If I block this emotion of 'desire,' will I be able to ignore this ntal attack?"
The All-Knowing Eye made it clear to him the attack thod of this ghost-faced spider. Direct eye contact would arouse instinctual lust, causing one to lose consciousness and easily be captured like prey.
Just like the young lady in front of him.
Rena's breathing technique and everything else were top-notch among first-tier professionals, yet she was easily affected. This ant that even if a second-tier professional ca, if their ntal power was not strong enough, they would likely be influenced by this elite spider.
Su'en didn't know what he was thinking, but his gaze gradually deepened. "Tsk tsk... It seems that this young lady's fate is not ant to end here..."
......
Su'en felt that he had observed enough and raised his hand, using a pistol with a silencer to shoot the spider's head.
Just like the information appraisal had indicated, although these distorted monsters were deadly, their physical defense was extrely poor. Ordinary bullets could easily create large holes in their bodies.
As the monster died, Rena also snapped out of her infatuated state.
She instantly realized that there was sothing embarrassing about her body, unsure if it was shyness or if her face had been red from the beginning. She weakly asked, "What... What happened to
just now?"
"Don't make direct eye contact with those ghost-faced spiders' red eyes, or else you'll be ntally controlled."
Su'en didn't explain much and simply said in a calm tone.
He didn't look at Rena's shy appearance, which could make many boys' hearts flutter. Instead, he walked straight towards the body of the assistant teacher, Rosa.
"Hmm... the spider monster even dropped so plant materials."
Su'en looked at the glow emanating from the corpse of this calf-sized spider. Among the remains, there were actually two cursed glowing spider legs.
However, the quality was not that great; they were just ordinary black iron materials.
Su'en ignored the spider legs and approached Rosa's body.
The mist on the body would dissipate over ti, and every second of delay ant a loss of these high-quality fragnts.
He had to harvest them quickly.
Then, as he approached the mist, he successfully extracted a large amount of useful things.
"Obtained 'Rosa Williams' mory fragnts *5"
"You have obtained so information: 'Daniel has been acting strange lately. I saw him secretly opening so kind of signaling device in the underground passage...'"
"You have mastered a large amount of 'Advanced Alchemy Knowledge'..."
"You have mastered the arcane alchemy Void Servant (Incomplete)..."
"You have comprehended a large amount of 'Alchemy Theory'..."
"You have mastered the proficient Quick Seal Formation Technique..."
"You have gained so 'Advanced Alchemy Casting Techniques', Alchemy experience
111"
"ntal power
0.35"
An expected harvest.
Su'en felt that there was too much "knowledge" in his mind.
Like a shattered puzzle suddenly piecing together a large chunk, it gave him an indescribable sense of accomplishnt.
.......
"Did I actually comprehend Rosa's arcane Void Servant?"
Su'en looked at the additional skill on the panel and imdiately thought of the scene in the dungeon where Rosa single-handedly held off countless moth monsters.
The ghostly cold fire burning the monsters kept them at bay, which still made him feel uneasy.
He was no longer a novice in alchemy, he naturally knew that skills crowned with "arcane" were top-tier rare and valuable knowledge. Not only was it difficult to acquire the skill, but the learning difficulty was also great, and understanding it was key!
This Void Servant in the inner city, was probably a top-tier arcane secret. To learn it, one would have to be one in ten thousand.
However, due to the talent of the Harvester, Su'en easily mastered this arcane level alchemy.
A mont of curiosity flashed through Su'en's mind. At this mont, the dark energy in his body circulated in a special and familiar way, and a small stream of pale blue cold fla suddenly erged from his fingers.
"It really worked..."
Su'en looked at the fla like a lighter, a smile appeared on his face.
This cold fla not only burned with dark elental magic, but also added a "defense-breaking" effect to physical attacks.
It gave the user's "basic attack" the effect of both physical and magical damage, causing a massive increase in damage!
Because it was an incomplete secret, Rosa only had two fla arms, which was just a small achievent in arcane. If it was a complete secret, one could even condense a complete "Void Servant" to cover the whole body, as if possessed by a god...
"What a powerful arcane secret."
After carefully sensing the special features of this cold fla, Su'en sighed in his heart.
He felt that he could probably poke a hole in a concrete wall with one finger now.
Although he didn't have Rosa's exaggerated flas, it was enough for his basic attack to crit.
At the sa ti, he also admired that the assistant was indeed an assistant, possessing much more knowledge than the elite students.
The surge in alchemy knowledge made Su'en feel like he had "skipped grades
