Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start

Chapter 267: Chapter 157: Stay Calm, the Advantage Is Mine

The expressions of the other nobles changed. They exchanged glances and instantly charged at Baiyi. A slender noble materialized a long blade in his hand and swung it horizontally.

But in the next moment, the aura around him started to falter, and the sharpness of the long blade suddenly vanished. The blade stopped less than a meter away from Baiyi.

Baiyi observed the frantic changes on their faces and calmly explained, ”For the sake of convenience, the drink you just had is called ’wine poison,’ a special concoction crafted from over three hundred highly poisonous ingredients. It has now evolved to possess the flavor of a top-tier wine.” ℴ

Seeing the panic-stricken expressions, including that of the King, Baiyi reassured them, ”Rest assured, I know how deadly these poisons are, so when you drank the wine, I placed millions of tiny creatures inside each of you.”

”They exist in harmony within your bodies, achieving a delicate balance. For now, you are in no immediate danger.”

As he spoke, Baiyi approached the old noble whose face was growing ashen and poured a clear liquid into his body.

Immediately, the noble’s complexion began to stabilize.

The nobles stared at Baiyi with intense hatred, wishing to kill him with their gaze. However, they did not dare, as an overwhelming instinct told them that any movement would result in death.

”This device is something I only conceived a short time ago. If you attempt to cleanse the poison, the creatures will devour your internal organs. If the creatures die, the poison will erupt, and even at the Gold Level, without my antidote, you will perish within three seconds.”

Baiyi, expressionless, asked, ”Now, the antidote is your reward. Does it suffice?”

Fear manifested in the nobles’ eyes as a dense, tiny vibration emerged within their bodies, letting them clearly perceive that many tiny entities had indeed entered their systems.

Some young ladies and gentlemen began to weaken at the knees; never had they felt such despair even in the face of rules. Yet now...

Baiyi paused as the vibrations in their bodies gradually faded, and the Gold-devouring Insects once again tightly restrained the poison’s eruption, maintaining the state of this deadly mixture.

A smile reappeared on his face: ”It seems you have no objections, so it’s settled. Three days....”

”On second thought, after reviewing your profiles, I find your abilities quite outstanding, so I will give you only two days.

If by this time the day after tomorrow, the materials on the list are not gathered, you will no longer need to exist.”

Baiyi turned to leave, then suddenly recalled something and nonchalantly said, ”Also, I request that you keep this matter confidential. There are 63 of you here, and if a 64th person learns about this....”

As Baiyi exited the council hall, an uproar erupted inside, filled with questioning and curses, voices echoing unceasingly.

However, it mattered little to Baiyi. This world was crafted by the Lady of the Night, and although some peculiarities had been alleviated by Xia’s rules,

the rules that shrouded the world remained troublesome. Therefore, Baiyi needed to obtain what he needed to turn the tables as swiftly as possible.

Should he indeed be unable to contend with those two, Baiyi would not hesitate to restart this world, using the lives of these powerful beings and those anomalies to recoup his Nightmare World losses.

Lost in thought, Baiyi glanced at the panel; only 9 skill points remained in the skill point section.

Baiyi upgraded the Transformation of Frenzy to full level.

Evil Thought was too extreme and uncontrollable, whereas Frenzy was somewhat manageable; at least Baiyi could calm it before entering combat, making it an excellent war weapon.

With Frenzy’s skill level maxed out, Baiyi’s understanding of it surpassed even Maku’s.

Moreover, his skill level in Evil Thought was also maxed out, and through mutual validation, Baiyi discovered many new aspects.

For instance, using Frenzy to form a body while allowing Evil Thought to become the core.

This would cause some conflict between Frenzy and Evil Thought, resulting in a more extreme transformation.

This transformation would oscillate between chaos and evil, developing a consciousness. If there were many such transformations, it could potentially create terrifying creatures that even Baiyi could not control.

Or simply, pure Frenzy, but with the incorporation of Evil Thought’s growth potential, Frenzy could directly morph into forbidden knowledge, becoming a more violent transformation mode.

Nevertheless, Baiyi did not plan to create such newly discovered things. Due to Frenzy’s influence, his Transformation Science reached Master-level Alchemy Transformation (23080/50000).

He intended to further research this most extreme negative transformation after reaching the Grandmaster level.

At that point, perhaps, he would gain new insights.

For now, a controllable Frenzy sufficed. Heading towards the laboratory, Baiyi gradually relaxed his body.

No rush; the advantage is shifting in his favor.

Night Town.

Pu Sheng, wearing a Faceless Mask, looked at a dilapidated prison cell with a hint of helplessness.

He didn’t particularly want to see Baiyi, yet this world was crafted by the Lady of the Night, and the rules forming this world were the Power of the Lady of the Night.

These top-tier creation rules were even something the Abyss coveted.

A few months ago, when he used the Abyss to break free from the control of the Ancient Gods, he brought a dangerous object into the Abyss, summoning a powerful Calamity Object.

Even the Abyss felt troubled by such a Calamity Object, and naturally, the Abyss was not pleased with anything that could cause it harm.
