Chapter 227 - Mystic Turtle: Son of a Bitch
Lu Ran briefly lost himself in thought but quickly regained focus and continued his inquiry.
Pedestrian A: By the way, Dr. Gu, when can you send me back to Green Sea City...
Whether Captain Doofus or Dark Crow evolved first, preparations had to begin. For Captain Doofus, Lu Ran needed to forge a new lifebound weapon. As for Dark Crow, its soul strength still required further cultivation.
The materials for the former were manageable. Given Lu Ran’s current wealth, obtaining them wouldn’t be difficult. With Flame Spirit as his cheat code and forging experience from the Undead Sect, a little refinement would allow him to craft a suitable weapon.
However, the forging diagram indicated that an undead weapon embryo required soul fire.
So far, Lu Ran hadn’t figured out how to produce soul fire himself. He suspected he might need external assistance, such as hunting Fire-attribute beasts, extracting their souls, and studying them further.
Cultivating Dark Crow would also involve hunting numerous vicious beasts, extracting their souls, and turning them into culinary resources for nourishment.
If Lu Ran wanted to advance his research on the Undead attribute, staying cooped up in Limitless City wouldn’t suffice. Beyond ascension realms, the beasts in common realms were too heavily digitized. They shattered upon contact, making soul separation impossible. The solution would have to be found in the real world.
Gu Qingyi: Is it urgent? I can push them to expedite it.
Pedestrian A: Yes, very urgent. By the way, what areas in Xia have a high concentration of wild Fire-attribute vicious beasts? The kind that’s uncontrollable and requires mass extermination. Also, I need Spirit- and Dark-attribute beasts too!
Gu Qingyi: Uhh... what exactly are you planning?
