A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 908: Chapter 900: Sinister Laughter

Finally, the hunt for chaos crystal cores can begin.

Chaos crystal cores only appear within organisms of D-class or higher, and the lower the grade of the chaos crystal core, the shorter its preservation time. In fact, F-class cores often begin melting and dissolving as soon as they are removed from the body, making them extremely difficult to preserve and unsuitable for internal trading among the Evolved Human tribes.

As for the high-grade crystal cores, the demand exceeds the supply, and often they are consumed immediately by the finder for evolution, leaving no room for trade.

Situ Mo advanced carefully, like a predatory evil wolf ready to strike. In this world shrouded in chaotic miasma, he was no longer at the bottom of the food chain, a victim to be preyed upon, but a hunter.

And Situ Mo’s target was the ape-man tribe settlement where he once found a field of mushrooms.

Back then, this group of ape-men killed several of Situ Mo’s important companions and left him lost and terrified like a mouse in the wilderness for days before he finally reached the base, only to receive the tragic news of his wife’s and daughter’s deaths.

However, the chaos apocalypse environment changes daily, with plants no longer the same for decades or centuries, and the migration of mutant beasts becoming the norm. It was possible that this ape tribe had been wiped out by a passing super-evolved mutant beast.

Now Situ Mo returned to the once mushroom-abundant land according to his memory, only to find it transformed into a place full of twisted, bizarre trees.

Buzz... Buzz... Buzz...

A swarm of strange bees was building a blood-red giant hive. As Situ Mo distinguished it from a distance, his eyes widened in shock. These strange bees were using the flesh and blood of other creatures mixed with mud to construct their hive!

His skin tingled, and he couldn’t help but break out in goosebumps.

Each of these strange bees was over ten centimeters long, with purple-red patterns and giant pincers, and their spiral teeth, resembling those of primitive creatures, were particularly suited to chewing animal flesh into pulp, forming a giant hive over ten meters high, with at least thousands of bees.

”Sss...”

Situ Mo took a sharp breath and quietly retreated, knowing that these strange bees were something even a B-Class Evolver like the director would not dare provoke.

As for himself?

It would be a death sentence!

After a while, once he had completely left the range of the strange bees’ hive, Situ Mo finally exhaled in relief, his clothes unknowingly soaked in cold sweat.

In the wild, apart from finding food to ward off hunger, obtaining water was extremely difficult. Even for evolved humans, there was no particular advantage, as much of the water had been infected by super microorganisms.

Being an experienced hunter, Situ Mo had his own survival techniques, or else he wouldn’t have managed to get married within the base.

Taking out a short, flexible metal needle, he walked until he finally found a corpse rotting from chaos plants. However, it was covered in tangled tree roots protruding from the ground, looking fuzzy as if, with the nutrients from the corpse depleted, the roots were about to retreat underground.

”Splash,” the metal needle punctured the root.

The root writhed, desperately retracting back into the ground, but Situ Mo held it firmly, greedily sucking the acrid liquid from the needle for quite some time before pulling it out satisfied. The fuzzy root vanished underground in a flash.

”It seems the ape-man tribe, which was just beginning to show promise, has been completely wiped out. Otherwise, the mushroom field they regarded as crops would not have perished; perhaps a particularly formidable mutant beast passed through here.”

From the ape-man tribe, Situ Mo couldn’t help but think of the CF-2 Base. For the likes of the Devil Locustvine, CF-2 Base might just be like the current ape-man tribe!

Roar...

A low roar, suddenly, a monster covered in mucus appeared. It was like a giant lizard, radiating a sense of strength as it walked towards Situ Mo, the ground sinking beneath its massive weight.

Gulp!

Situ Mo swallowed hard.

”This kind of feeling, it’s a C-Class Mutant Beast!”

Drawing his Blood Groove Knife, Situ Mo faced the mutant giant lizard without hesitation, eyes full of killing intent, advancing step by step towards it. No matter what the future held, only by grasping stronger strength could he change it!

...

Wizard World, Oblivion Tower Secret Realm.

A few months for Situ Mo in the chaos apocalypse had been fulfilling and rewarding, yet for the great Stigmata Sorcerers, it was merely a blink of an eye.

”Hehehehe, quite a strong mutant beast, it seems it doesn’t want to offer its chaos crystal core to you, and still wishes to devour your flesh in hunger. If you die, your soul will belong to me; what use are those unutilized lives? You might as well pray to me now, using your future vitality for stronger power...”

Green, as the devil figure who bewitches and devours souls in the Different World, murmured hoarsely to the Dream-entering Mirror.

After a while, with a sigh, Green shook his head and put the Dream-entering Mirror aside.

”Cackle, cackle, cackle, just a minor creature not even a First-Level Creature, once the contract is signed, eventually, out of greed for strength or other attachments, it will continue to pray for more power. I, Master Eight, have never heard of anyone who, after signing a Devil’s Contract, dares to actively pursue a vague and illusory destiny. Otherwise, how do those Foreign Evil Gods open the World Gate?”

Xiao Ba scoffed.

”I didn’t expect that the unintended connectivity of this world would be so intriguing. It seems the chaos world must be a large one with extremely distinct rules; otherwise, how could a mere experimental rift spit out multiple World Masters, who hide due to some fear?”

Beneath the Face of Truth, Green’s eyes, in their dual hues, shone with intense anticipation.

”I must make these Evolved Humans restore the chaos world fissure technology once opened by the Spirit People. Spiritual Technology seems to be a biologically intelligent race of evolution. If I can conquer this world and enslave these Evolved Humans, restoring the technology once mastered by the Spirit People seems just a matter of time. Besides, perhaps I am not the only one eyeing this chaos apocalypse spirit human world!”

Green seemed to have discovered something from Situ Mo, the medium, his laughter particularly sinister.

”This world is rapidly evolving into a medium-scale world due to the mutation of the two different world rules. Moreover, even within the small CF-2 Evolved Human Base, there are Exotic Creatures attempting to invade this world. Who knows how many Exotic Creatures are spying on it elsewhere? It’s really filled with anticipation and unknowns; it seems necessary to find some powerful wizards to co-invade...”

An expedition differs from an invasion.

An expedition refers to a planned part of demon-hunting expeditions led by the Wizard World through the Lever of Destiny, while an invasion is an attack on a Different World connected to Wizard World through a world rift by a Stigma Sorcerer.

This chaos apocalypse spirit human world is not part of the world cluster where Wizard World resides; the Wizard’s Will has not yet reached it. Conducting a demon-hunting expedition through the Lever of Destiny would be exceedingly difficult.

However, if conducting an invasion via the world rift, it would be relatively simpler.

Opening a world rift with Wizard World?

For ordinary worlds, that would indeed be too cruel...

Furthermore, with the impending Civilization War, the coordinates of the Different World provided by Shadow Spy Sorcerer are far less than what the Stigmata Wizard of the Wizard World requires. Many powerful ancient Stigmata Wizards are idle in the Stigmata Mijing, eager to enhance their foundations with all their might before the Civilization War, hoping to become Ancient Wizards celebrated by future wizards after the war.

I believe once Green issues a mission for joint invasion, many old fellows will rush to sign up, even allowing Green to reap substantial benefits from this world without lifting a finger!
