Chapter 408: Starlight-tier Potion

“A diamond-tier holy relic? Really?”

“Aren’t most of the other holy relics passed down from generations on display in the kingdom’s museums while the rest are in the hands of the Campbell Family? Where did that holy relic come from? Did someone give it to Watson?”

People on both sides of the road discussed animatedly after seeing the holy relic in Marcus’ hands. Some were surprised, while others were envious. However, no one believed it because time around the Holy Sword of Time was distorted to a certain extent, and time continued to cycle around the sword. The faces of the guards who held the holy sword kept changing between middle-aged men in their 30s and their teenage selves.

The phenomenon caused by the sword was shocking, but its terrifying diamond-tier aura made many people present unable to help but kneel. A weapon that could contain such an aura was at least platinum-tier or above.

“I did not expect Watson to have such a powerful holy relic after just obtaining ten million gold coins. The value of a diamond-tier holy relic can’t be estimated. At the very least, it’s worth over a million gold coins. Doesn’t that mean that without those ten million gold coins, Watson is already wealthy?”

That thought appeared in the hearts of many noblemen in the crowd at that moment.. They looked at the change in Watson’s gaze. Previously, they had only thought of Watson as a talented genius. Then, they had to treat Watson as a strong man with a deep background.

“As expected.”

Watson held his forehead, and his body shook.

“Watson, what’s wrong? Are you okay?” Nightingale looked at Watson worriedly. She felt that Watson was fortunate that day. Wherever Watson went, everyone seemed to be trying to please him and voluntarily offered him many benefits. She did not suspect that those things were done on purpose because Watson had done even more outrageous things before that. Perhaps he was just a little lucky, and maybe that was entirely within the acceptable range.

“I’m fine.”

It would be strange if he were fine, Watson complained in his heart. Soon, the people in the royal city would know that he had the diamond-tier holy relic and was a rich genius whose wealth was not inferior to the three archdukes’ families.

When his gaze landed on the hands of Marcus’ subordinates, the information of the Holy Sword of Time instantly appeared in his eyes.

[Diamond-tier holy relic: Holy Sword of Time]

[Abilities: Rule of Time (able to freely control the time within the range of one’s sight, able to accelerate, pause, and reverse time), Time Slice (able to generate sharp blades of time, causing rapid aging damage to the person in the slice), Time Quicksand (able to release time turbulence, causing large-scale damage to the enemy).]

[Additional ability: World Freeze (consumes all of the power of the Holy Sword and can unleash an attack that can freeze the entire world for one second).]

“As a holy relic, that sword’s ability is quite good. Not only can it freeze time between itself and others, but it can also use the blade’s destruction as the price to unleash the ability to freeze the world for one time! If it’s during a battle between two armies, releasing the ability to stop the world, one second is enough to shatter the other army.”

After seeing the information of the holy relic, Watson muttered in his heart and sighed at the same time. “But can’t you give that thing to me privately? Do you have to give it to me openly and let everyone know that the Severed Fingers Gang don’t know what it means to give gifts?”

“Young Master Watson, the holy sword has been found. Don’t you want it? Or is the sword not the one you dropped? In fact, other than that sword, we have found other weapons too. Why don’t you take a look—”

“No need to look. That sword is mine.”

 Watson cut him off and waved his hand. The Holy Sword of Time in the guard’s hand immediately flew into his hand. Then, Watson felt a powerful energy enter his body. It was as though he could age his body if he wanted to.

As he held the Holy Sword of Time, Watson looked at Klein. “didn’t you say you want to take me to retrieve ten million gold coins? Let’s go.”

Klein was stunned for a moment before he quickly recovered. “Yes, Young Master Watson. I’ll take you there now.”

As he spoke, Klein could not help but look at the relic sword in Watson’s hand. Then, he glanced at Marcus and gritted his teeth in frustration. ‘I never expected Marcus to give even a holy relic to the Black Emperor. I miscalculated. Compared to ten million gold coins, a holy relic is indeed more pleasing.’

As long as one had the money to make a wish, they could have as much as they wanted. Holy relics that had been passed down for generations could not be easily manufactured. As an underground force in the kingdom, he had previously purchased a few holy relics from the black market. However, it was not the one that Marcus had given Watson. Recently, Marcus had used platinum-tier weapons as bait to reach an agreement with many noblemen. Perhaps that holy relic was part of Marcus’ transaction.

Klein did not want to admit it, but Marcus’ gift was better than what he had prepared. That made him somewhat vexed.

‘Why don’t I change the reward of ten million gold coins to one hundred million gold coins later? Will the Black Emperor be happy?’

As he pondered, before Klein could take Watson away, someone stopped them.

“Watson, there seems to be a problem. Come with me immediately.”

“Who is it again?”

The corners of Watson’s mouth began to twitch. He could not take it anymore. Those Severed Fingers Gang leaders had appeared one by one, trying their best to make him stand out in the limelight. They thought it would make him happy, but they did not know that it would only have the opposite effect. No matter who appeared next, he had already decided to scold them and resolutely reject their good intentions.

He raised his head; He was stunned when he saw the people who had come.

The people who stopped him were not from the Severed Fingers Gang. Instead, they were his two masters, Antonio and Reid.

“Greetings, Master Antonio, Master Reid!”

Charlotte could not help but bow when she saw the two people in front of her.

“That’s famous Master Antonio. This is the first time I’ve seen him up close and personal. He’s so handsome.” Lily panted as she stared at Antonio, especially when she saw the man’s handsome face, which did not look like a human’s, and his eyes contained wisdom. Her face was a little red. As a mage, Antonio had always been her idol, so naturally, seeing his idol up close excited her.

Even the residents on both sides of the street were also excited.

“Greetings, Master Sword Saint, Master Astrologer,” they greeted the newcomers as they knelt.

“Masters, why are you looking for me?”

The two older men were frowning as if they had something important to do.

“Something happened at home. Your senior brother, Samuel, seems to have been poisoned. The blood in his body has turned black. That poison is very strong. Anyone who touches even a little bit of it will die. Tina told me about that. However, Antonio and I are helpless in this. We need you,” Reid replied with a serious expression.

He did not know that his words had caused a great stir in the hearts of the people around Watson, especially Lana.

“The Sword Saint’s disciple has been poisoned. Who is so bold to poison his disciple?” Lana was surprised; then, she was distracted by another matter. ‘According to the Sword Saint’s words, he and the astrologer had tried to heal his disciple, but they failed. Would Watson be able to help them? Did they have to ask Watson for help? Why do they think he could help?’

At first, Lana only thought Watson was an extraordinary genius, and that was fun for her. However, after a day, she realized that she knew too little about Watson, and the more she knew about him, the more she realized that it was not accurate to describe that youth as a genius.

He was a monster shrouded in layers of fog. When she removed his veil, she did not feel joy but fear instead.

“Samuel was poisoned? How did he get poisoned?”

Watson was also puzzled by the words of his two masters.

“As for the specifics, we’ll talk about it when we return to the Sword Saint’s courtyard.” Reid glanced at Klein, who was not far away from Watson. “Or I can wait for you to get the ten million gold coin reward first before bringing you back.”

“There’s no need, Master. We’ll leave now.” The ten million gold coin reward was not that important to Watson because Klein was one of his men. The ten million gold coins were his assets, but Samuel was different. Even though he did not like his senior brother very much, it was a human life after all. Watson could not just stand by and watch him die.

With that in mind, he turned to Nightingale with an apologetic look. “I’m sorry, Nightingale. I can’t continue to accompany you. ”

“It’s okay, Watson. You go ahead. I’ll look for you next time.”

Suppressing her reluctance, Nightingale smiled and ruffled her hair. She knew that Watson would have to wait for a long time if he wanted to leave the academy, but she wanted to support him more than to stay by his side.

“Then I’ll be leaving now.”

Watson felt warm toward Nightingale’s thoughtfulness. He nodded, and a huge magic array appeared beneath his feet. He disappeared with Antonio and Reid, leaving behind a group of reserved people who gradually rose from the ground.

“Let’s go.”

After looking around, Charlotte was the first to speak. She discovered that after Watson left, both Klein and Marcus had disappeared. Even though the number of noblemen in the crowd had decreased significantly, it seemed like those people were there for Watson. That discovery made Charlotte’s heart hurt.

Previously, she had only heard rumors about Watson. Then, she realized that he was a genius. Perhaps Watson’s ability was on par with her sister, Nia.

She had thought that Watson was no match for her sister, but now, she was no longer sure. At the same time, she made up her mind. There were still two days before she had to go to the Royal Academy. In those two days, she would have to work hard in her cultivation. She would try her best not to fall too far behind those monsters.

Lana was also deep in thought. She moved the parasol above her head a little and felt a ray of sunlight shining on her face. ‘I wonder if Watson can cure the poison in his senior brother’s body. Today’s trip was really worth it. Not only did it help me advance to gold-tier, but I also obtained a lot of important information! Only that person would dare to attack the Sword Saint family. Interesting.”

….

In a certain room in the Sword Saint’s courtyard, a shrill scream resounded throughout the entire courtyard.

“D*mn it, I’m not sick or poisoned! Let me go, or else I won’t be courteous with you? Tina, my dear Tina, can’t you let me go? I’ll explain everything to you. There’s a reason why the blood in my body has turned black.”

Samuel was tied to a chair with anti-magic materials. Even a platinum-tier elite would not be able to use their abilities in front of such materials. At the same time, the shrunken Kingdom of the Swords above Christina’s head was suppressing Samuel. He could not move at all. He could not even release the blood in his body to corrode the anti-magic materials on his body.

“Senior Brother Samuel, those who are sick will say that they are not sick. Don’t worry. I have already asked my father and Master Antonio to go get Watson. As long as Watson is here, your illness will definitely be cured.” Samuel’s lips trembled. He opened his throat and could not make a sound. His eyes looked miserable.

“I… I really do…”

Samuel’s body quivered. He wanted to continue begging for mercy. At that time, a junior brother suddenly ran in from outside. “Miss Christina, Master and Master Antonio have brought Watson back with them. It seems there’s hope for Eldest Senior Brother.”

“Watson is back? Let them in quickly.”

When Christina heard that, her face lit up. She knew that Watson was powerful ever since he imparted his knowledge to her. She had wanted to tell Watson before she told her father and Antonio about that matter. However, she could not find him after he left Count Gray’s Manor. So she went to her father instead.

However, her father told her that a god created the poison, so he had no way of dealing with that.

In the end, they decided that only Watson could solve that situation. Since Watson could fuse everything, even starlight-tier weapons, perhaps he could do the same with that poison.

“We’re already here.”

As soon as Christina’s voice fell, three people led by Watson walked in from outside. Reid came in front of Samuel. There was a hint of sadness in his eyes besides heartache. As for Samuel, he looked like he wanted to say something to him. Reid sighed. “After that matter is over, I want you to give me a good explanation. Let Watson heal you first. ”

Watson walked in front of Samuel. He raised his hand and scratched the back of Samuel’s hand. Viscous black blood immediately oozed from the wound, causing his pupils to constrict.

“That is—”

He had already heard about Samuel’s condition from his master. He had a rough guess in his heart. When he saw it, he was confident that the sticky black blood was the same as what he had seen in the tainted unicorn’s body. In other words, the king was involved in it somehow.

‘I can’t believe that King Landhar III is so vicious. He actually poisoned the people around me? But why would he poison Samuel? Shouldn’t he use it on me? Is it to test the effect of the poison and see if it works before using it on me? Or is the poison contagious? Will it spread to other people?”

Watson rubbed his chin as he thought about it.

He really did not understand why King Landhar III would do that. He could not figure it out, no matter how hard he racked his brain. It seemed that the King was a thoughtful person.

While he was lamenting, Watson heard Reid ask, “What do you think, Watson? Can you cure Samuel’s illness? ”

“Of course, Master, please rest assured. But before the treatment, I still need you to get me some potions, preferably gold-tier ones.”

“We do have gold-tier potions here. Any potion?”

“Yes, any gold-tier potion is fine.”

Following Watson’s order, Reid waved his hand, and his apprentice left the room. A moment later, he came back with a bottle of gold-tier potion in his hand. The potion was bubbling and looked very magical.

“This is a gold-tier Advanced Sword Aura potion’. After taking it, the sword aura can be strengthened ten times. The effect can only last for an hour. Is this okay?”

“It’s perfect.”

Watson smiled and took the potion. After uncorking the bottle, he poured it into Samuel’s mouth. At the same time, he activated the system fusion in his heart. “System fusion, activate.”

He needed to fuse at least two or more things to activate the system fusion. According to the characteristics of the fusion, the more similar the fusion, the better the effect. According to his observation, Samuel’s blood was corroded by the black substance. The only way to restore it to its original state was to extract the black substance from Samuel’s body completely.

Of course, there was another reason he asked for the potion.

[Congratulations on the successful fusion, Master. You have obtained a starlight-tier potion—the Toxic God’s Corrosive Potion.

[Starlight-tier potion: the Toxic God’s Corrosive Potion.]

[Effect: smear on the body to get toxic bodily fluid. One drop can kill a diamond-tier existence.]

Additional abilities: Highly Toxic Divine Kingdom (releases a divine kingdom filled with poison), Absolute Stickiness (releases a highly toxic line filled with a stickiness that can be combined into any shape. At the same time, one can not break free once stuck by the highly toxic line), Absolute Corrosion (releases a liquid poison, any substance will dissolve in the poison), and Poison Decomposition (can transform the blood in the body into different effects, a poison below the starlight-tier).]

After the fusion was completed, some liquid appeared in the bottle that Watson had just emptied. It was pitch-black and viscous. The spider web-like ends were attached to the inside of the bottle, and it crawled inside the bottle as if it had a life of its own. It looked extremely disgusting.

‘Not bad. I’ve actually fused a starlight-tier potion. Now I can use it.’

Watson shook the potion and found that it was spontaneously extending to the surroundings as if it would climb onto the bodies of all the living creatures and kill them. He poured the black substance onto his palm. I immediately began to multiply rapidly. Spiderweb-like black lines wrapped around his body bit by bit, wrapping him inside.

Then, the black substance squirmed non-stop, causing black claws to extend out of Watson’s palm and jagged fangs to appear on his face. The area around his eyes had turned into a cloudy, indistinct, silvery-white, long vertical pupil, exuding an evil aura. The strangest thing was that a monster’s face had appeared at the back of Watson’s head, and its jagged, huge mouth had opened at the base of his neck.
