Chapter 151: Prototype Poison World

[Next day]

Yumi and Michu were in the polluted village.

Its sight was disheartening.

Villagers were going across the streets with their heads low. Their bodies were chillingly pale, and their steps slow... By looking into their eyes, both residents and players felt an urge to help them out.

Alas, no one really wanted to be a nanny.

Besides providing them some food and money, the players and merchants didn't do anything else and distanced themselves from the devastated village.

Michu turned his eyes to his girlfriend, "Yumi... Weren't you learning about the poison lately? Blood and Mana Poison... Right? Can't you make an antidote to help them?"

His girlfriend tested the poison on the Soul Trees and their barks.

She had learned a lot through their leveling up and dropped items from the Soul Trees. Those particular monsters were the best subjects, and Yumi was confident she would provide the cure.

However, it would betray their plan. "The villagers must endure... In a few days, we will take down Nera."

Yumi reassured her boyfriend.

She was all smiles due to him being worried about the villagers. It heightened his already lovely side, and as a girlfriend, Yumi's heart continued to beat sweetly.

What she was worried about was something else, "Will you be able to take down Nera?" It was named NPC, and he was no different than those villagers except for his strength.

He would die forever, and it would be like a killing.

It was Michu's time to comfort his girlfriend, "He's the bad guy. I will do it."

In this world, the prison was for those who had the use.

For Michu, killing Nera would help his girlfriend and abilities, so he was all in for it. Although the redemption arc would be nice, the epic quest wanted Nera dead, and a lot of experience would enter their accounts should they kill him.

It was just a game.

"He is one of the bad guys who utterly causes too much trouble. I must take him down." Michu said and added, "It sucks that this world has so many bad people."

"People are just too different," Yumi sweetly explained, "Imagine what's going on in another leaf where there are literally all different races against each other. It's war after war, then the road to heaven."

"Uhh..." Michu caressed his chin, "You want to tell me they are bad, but just for us?"

"A poison world. For people such as Nera, it would be the best world to live in. For us, the worst." With these words, Michu was forced to understand how different this world was.

He had been looking at its beautiful side, but the higher he went, the more ugly side promptly exposed itself.

Michu nodded, then his arm sank in Yumi's ample bosom.

She was clearly happy, and both of them strolled out of the village to have some better sights around them.

"My research is done, and we have to wait a few days to visit Nera's hideout." Yumi vigorously said, "I want to stay with my prince on the beautiful side for the remainder of our free time."

"Hehe! So we will spend a lot of time on my banana farm!" Michu laughed out loud while his girlfriend pouted, "We also should check out more cities around! A date."

"Nice!"

[Nera Hideout]

Nera never met people unless he had [Poison World] around himself.

One would be able to see his real self only in his hideout or Hider's Dungeon! Otherwise, he would use proxies and threaten others through long-distance techniques.

He also was a quite sneaky and rogue-like person.

His hideout was deep underground, with a subterranean river flowing quietly. Unfortunately for the world, this underground river was poisoned. It was blue, but the blue hue was poisonous, and bubbles often snapped.

His cave had littered countless theories about both mana and blue poison.

Nera's original recipes were also scattered here, but he often stepped on those, so it was clear that those theses were nothing but failure.

A sound of blue poison bubbling in the pot pervaded the cave, however.

It was the thing that prevailed here, and the pot had Nera's full attention. "This poison... won't sustain The Poison World... Why can't I increase its potency?" Nera's eyes narrowed, then he suddenly remembered, "Oh, yeah... That trash."

That trash was Lord Makro...

For his ambition, Nera needed much more resources than any other mage. He already used the resources left by his master, so he needed to use others and threaten their lives with his lethal poison!

Lord Makro was one of many nobles on his list.

Nera just remembered about him and used one of his techniques to visit that fool... After he did it, his eyes returned to the pot.

A few hours later, the unconcealed steps rang out in his cave!

"You managed to track me down?" Nera arched his head back and asked.

But his eyes instantly widened after he noticed Venomous and Michu standing at the helm. These two were unforgettable as they colluded with his precious junior!

Nera hid his shock, "You have brought Blood Poison Original to me? How nice of you." At that time, unique wings sprang free from his back. Those were the moth's wings, and they oozed out poison while flapping.

Yumi smiled back, "I saw your shock. Do I look that scary?" She jested, and her legs morphed into the snake tail!

Michu grasped his staff tightly and whispered, "Let's do it! KongFu, it's the best time to try Brotherhood Skill!"

"Yeah, I am interested in how we would cope against level 120," KongFu replied, and both their eyes gleamed in a pinkish hue.

While these two talked, Yumi glanced at Lord Makro.

The noble nodded and scattered his forces around Nera's cave. He was level 100 while his soldiers had just ten or twenty less! This force clogged all escape routes, including the underground river!

Nera wasn't deterred.

He began the battle with the strongest skill, "Prototype Poison World."
