Chapter 540 – Similar Pollution Source (Requests Subscription)

After Sol temporarily sucked away the pollution from the traveling merchant Gaga Drum, in order to continue to study the properties of the remaining pollution source on him and find other ways to remove the pollution, Sol invited Gaga Drum to ascend to Lake Rhine.

However, Gaga Drum refuses, saying that he has goods to sell right now and cannot stay too long.

However, to show his sincere gratitude, Gagagum shows Saul his shelves and says he will give Saul the opportunity to buy the rights at half price.

Of course, a merchant’s offer is good enough to hear, but you still have to weigh the value for yourself.

It just so happened that Saul was just in the process of establishing a wizard tower, and a lot of infrastructure and daily necessities were scarce, and after he looked at the list of goods provided by Gaga Drum, he realized that the prices were indeed much cheaper than outside, and immediately ordered a few goods.

Gaga Drum directly left those that were in stock, and those that were not promised to be delivered to him within a month.

At the same time, Gaga Drum will also introduce suitable “patients” for Saul, to open up sales for him, spreading fame.

After Gaga Drum left, Saul returned to the Pure Spirit Sorcerer Tower with his newly-arrived pollution and the goods he had just purchased.

And the old witch appeared only at this time.

She reluctantly hugged her arms and leaned on the gate, ”Hmph, why be so polite to a traveling merchant? He must have a lot of valuable goods hidden on him! Just grab them!”

“What’s worth a merchant is not the goods he has on him now, but the network of relationships and channels behind him.”

Saul shook the hem of his coat, the two water crossings had caused a layer of ice to form on the hem of his sorcerer’s robe.

“Perhaps I should change my style of sorcerer’s robe.”

He recalled the attire of the Ochlik wizard who should have been skinned by the old hag, and thought that his kind of wizard robes, which resembled an adventurer’s suit, would be nice.

“It’s all in your favor anyway. Next time you go out, remember to call me. I don’t want you to somehow die in someone else’s hands.” The old witch snorted coldly and turned around to leave.

“Please wait.” Saul suddenly spoke.

The old hag stopped in her tracks and looked back at him impatiently, “What’s wrong again?”

Saul stepped forward and cast a 0th rank minor witchcraft, “You’ve grown three centimeters taller than yesterday. You only grew less than 40 centimeters in the previous three months, but you grew three centimeters taller in less than a day after entering the Rhine Lake, did you do something?”

The old witch said impatiently, “You don’t think that all the people who come to Lake Rhine will be as polite as that silly caveman, do you? Since I’ve decided to settle here for a long time, it’s only natural for me to recover my strength as soon as possible.”

“Didn’t you hear the sound of water flowing as soon as you meditated? Now it won’t?”

“Of course it still will!” The old hag spread her hands, “Isn’t that a problem you’re supposed to solve? But it doesn’t delay me from regaining my strength. Not to mention that the perfect body itself will continue to adapt to my strength to complete the metamorphosis.”

She glanced at the black tentacle held in Sol’s hand, “As a result, you were kind enough to help others purify the pollution. I see that you entered the Masterless Land to make a dedication, right?”

Hearing the old hag’s true meaning, Saul unhurriedly put away the tentacle that had turned black in his hand.

“While absorbing the contamination in your body, I realized that you have more than just the one I threw in.”

The old hag rolled her eyes so hard that they almost fell out of their sockets.

“In fact, before I designed you, there were at least two types of contamination in you, it just doesn’t affect your strength yet. But continue if you let it develop, then it will definitely turn into a serious life-threatening contamination eventually.”

The old witch was unimpressed, “Which one of the people living in the land of no man has no pollution on them? What witch isn’t struggling with death? You don’t think this is one of those barren and self-righteous places out there, do you?”

Thor shook his head, “I’m not surprised by that. It’s just that the contamination on you is somewhat similar in some of its characteristics to the contamination I’ve gotten on others. So I wondered if the others had it too.”

He informed the old hag of his position on his identity and his subsequent plans for research.

“Dodge makes a living by defecting to others and selling the lake’s grievances, and since I don’t want to find a mountain or sell the lake’s grievances, I’ll have to think of other ways. And by doing so, I can also collect different sources of pollution, and perhaps detect where the original source of these pollutions came from.”

“Is there any need to check this? The initial pollution, naturally, came from this land!” The old witch was unimpressed.

“And why did this land give birth to such powerful pollution?” Sol pursued. The old hag was about to open her mouth, but then it was set in stone. She seemed to be caught up in memories, but was confused.

Finally unable to explain anything she stubbornly snorted coldly, “Hmph, are these things something we can research just by studying them? Just leave it to those fourth-ranked sorcerers who are bored to death all day and can’t die.”

She glanced at Sol, “You don’t think that you, a first-order sorcerer, can handle this difficult problem that no one has solved for hundreds of years, do you?”

Sol shrugged and said nothing.

The old witch completely ignored Saul, leaving him behind and walking into the wizard’s tower alone.

The night was already deep.

After trudging through March and being busy for a whole day, Saul did not have the idea of going to rest immediately.

He walked slowly to the edge of the island, looked at the small grayish-white mushrooms that had been planted by Marsh at his feet and had gone from wilted to refreshed, and laughed silently.

The lake shrouded in mist rippled.

Below the surface of the water, dozens of pale faces surged.

They stared at Saul, their faces confused and a little eager, as if they knew that the person on the shore was their new future master.

……

The old witch was right about one thing, the people who came to Lake Rhine might not all be as nice as Gaga Drum.

In fact, within two days, there were people who came to buy the spirits again.

However, when they realized that the visitor was not Dodge, but an unknown young sorcerer, the greed in their eyes never stopped.

So much so that Saul, who didn’t use the old witch’s hand to solve the two men, was very skeptical, how did they survive in the Masterless Land until now?

Just as Saul was staring at the two corpses, pondering whether to directly throw them into the Rhine Lake to cultivate a new generation of resentful spirits, or to go through the trouble of dragging them back to the Witch Tower and putting them into the underground corpse room to be used to collect human body materials, a person flew over from the air and landed on the ground with a decent smile on his face.

He appeared to be only in his twenties, with handsome features and an extraordinary demeanor.

“Greetings, Sorcerer Sol, or should I call you Healer Sol? I was introduced to you by the wandering merchant, Gaga Drum, and came over to ask you for a favor.”

Saul immediately had Kobo throw the two corpses into Lake Rhine.

He thought to himself, “Should I build a house here in the future to use as a hospitality for guests?”

“Just to be clear, my abilities are still limited and I may not necessarily be able to help you with this favor.”

The man was dressed in a straight dress, resembling a noble young master more than a sorcerer.

But Saul noticed that there was something strange about the clothes he was wearing. The pattern on the hem seemed to be constantly changing.

Saul narrowed his eyes slightly, observing the man in front of him under the observational perspective of the meditative mind.

However this look made his heart jump.

The skin of the handsome youth in front of him unexpectedly took on an extremely unnatural pallor, as if it had been smeared with a layer of plaster, or was itself plaster.

The clothes on his body, on the other hand, were like fluid, constantly writhing on the surface of the man’s body, like a quagmire monster draped over his body.
