Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 1578: Chapter 44: Return Journey and the Red Hunter (Fifth Update)

Inside the third floor of the castle, after Su Xiao drank a bottle of Ancient Secret Medicine, his wounds gradually stopped bleeding, and manually setting his ribs made his breathing much smoother.

Bubu Wang rarely gets injured, and even if it does get hurt, it’s usually a minor injury. This time, it was indeed seriously injured, and when Su Xiao was treating its wounds, its howls were heart-wrenching.

Su Xiao’s technique for treating wounds was very professional, and as for the patient’s feelings, even Iron-blooded Barbarian·Am almost shed tears once when injured.

When Su Xiao finished treating Bubu Wang’s wound, it kicked its legs and passed out.

”Is she... really dead?”

Meilodi spoke weakly. She feared two people the most: Moris and Su Xiao. Now that Su Xiao had killed Moris, Meilodi not only hadn’t forgotten the fear from Moris but also seemed to be psychologically more overshadowed.

”Obviously, she is dead to the core.”

Su Xiao signaled A Mu to take care of the unconscious Bubu Wang. He got up and walked to the fourth floor.

The entire fourth floor of the castle was Moris’s living quarters, prohibited for outsiders. With Moris’s character, one could imagine the level of luxury here.

After wandering a few circles in the fourth floor, Su Xiao stopped in front of a metal door. The door was full of various formation diagrams, and the center was a sun-shaped bulge that could be turned. If he guessed correctly, this was similar to a combination lock. Upon inspection, Su Xiao realized that cracking this thing was almost impossible, at least not by him, unless by violently dismantling the door.

Su Xiao tried twisting the sun-shaped bulge, and after several turns, unsurprisingly, the metal door completely locked itself. With no hope of unlocking, Su Xiao drew his knife and stabbed the door.

[Prompt: The Sun Conversion Crystal has been destroyed.]

[The Hunter has exterminated the Westport Witch gathering point, recording kills...]

It wasn’t that Su Xiao directly destroyed the Sun Conversion Crystal, but that he triggered the metal door’s defense confinement, which led to the crystal’s destruction.

As Su Xiao slashed the door open, the 50-plus-square-meter room inside was already a mess, with everything reduced to ashes. This, of course, included Moris’s personal property and the rare materials stocked in Westport. With Moris’s character, it was impossible for her to give outsiders a chance to get these things.

The smell of burning greeted him. Just at this moment, the previous kill statistics ended, and the rewards began to be settled.

[The Hunter has exterminated the Westport Witch gathering point, and you have received the following basic rewards.]

[You have obtained 20% Source of Exploration, currently totalling 26.3% Source of Exploration.]

[You have received 12,700 points of Holy Healing Church Reputation, current Reputation: 13,790/100 (white level).]

[You have received Soul Crystal (Large) ×10.]

[Basic rewards have been stored in the Hunter’s personal Reincarnation Brand, the following are additional rewards from which the Hunter can choose one.]

A, Basic Ability Promotion Eligibility (upgrade limit to Master’s Level).

B, Legendary Chest·Hunt ×1 (This chest offers a 100% chance to obtain Legendary Gear, 70% chance of receiving a Legendary Skill Scroll, 50% chance for a Legendary Cultivation Method/Basic Skills/Rare Bloodline, 8% chance of obtaining a complete Soul Crystal, 2% chance of acquiring items above Legendary Quality.)

C, Temporary Removal of Limit (temporarily remove 99 points of true attribute limit, the effect lasts for 10 minutes, usable once).

D, Increase Curse Resistance by 30%, after receiving this reward, Curse Resistance will be increased to 95% (common reward Curse Resistance cap is 75%).

...

Besides the basic rewards, Su Xiao could choose one from the four additional rewards. Reward A was the safest choice; Reward B was luck-based and could be the most or least rewarding. Reward C was temporarily ruled out. Even if Su Xiao’s four main attributes broke the limit, they would barely exceed a hundred points, making them unpredictable without corresponding rewards.

As for Reward D, it was very interesting. With this reward, Su Xiao could almost ignore Curse Witches, no matter how strange their abilities were, the impact on Su Xiao would be very limited.

Between A, B, and D, after much deliberation, Su Xiao chose the ’Legendary Chest·Hunt’, a treasure chest with a unique name that basically represented the highest value among Legendary treasure chests.

Although Curse Resistance and Master-level Ability were also tempting, Su Xiao could soon increase Curse Resistance to 75%, and with his Sword Grandmaster’s immune control effect, he also wasn’t fearful of those Curse Witches.

Though Master-level Abilities were powerful, without a large resource investment, they were only seemingly attractive. Su Xiao’s Sword Grandmaster had already reached Level 12, and the subsequent resource consumption did not temporarily allow him to divert resources to other basic abilities.

If it were just a Legendary Chest without that ’Hunt’ word, Su Xiao would decisively choose Curse Resistance.

A treasure chest appeared in Su Xiao’s hand, its feel exceptionally heavy. After storing the chest in his storage space, Su Xiao went to a large bed and immediately fell asleep. The long journey and intense battles with the Witch Moris, the Crownless Lord, and a large group of witches had severely depleted his stamina.

Not knowing how long he slept, Su Xiao suddenly felt something kick him in the face, and squinting his sleepy eyes, he found Bubu Wang’s paw had hit his face.

Pushing the sleeping Bubu Wang aside, Su Xiao continued to sleep.

A few hours later.

Tap, tap, tap...

Footsteps approached, Su Xiao’s eyes opened, and he raised his hand to hold the hilt of Dragon Slash. An unfamiliar person neared him, not Bubu Wang or A Mu.

The long knife slashed diagonally, stopping just before a pale neck.

”I only came to deliver food~”

Meilodi’s voice trembled. She still didn’t realize how dangerous it was to approach Su Xiao while he was asleep.

”How long did I sleep?”

Su Xiao sheathed Dragon Slash. Besides this castle, Westport had ceased to exist.

”You slept a long time, perhaps... ten hours?”

”Is that so.”

Su Xiao moved his left arm, which had the most severe injury. The stabbing pain persisted, and though the situation wasn’t optimistic, he could now move freely, requiring only a few days of rest for full recovery.

”What to do next? Continue witch hunting?”

Meilodi placed the rice porridge she cooked by the bed. This White Witch obviously didn’t have the temperament of a good wife and loving mother, as the porridge smelled of burnt and had crusty bits inside.

Su Xiao glanced at Meilodi and then at the porridge on the bedside. Meilodi smiled awkwardly.

”The texture is not bad, at least it’s quite crunchy~”

”...”

Meilodi was obviously in a good mood. With Moris dead, she was entirely liberated. If there weren’t a bomb inside her, she would have already set out to swindle wherever needed.

After drinking some porridge with a burnt taste, Su Xiao noticeably felt his condition improve. He got up and, after thinking for a moment, headed out of the castle.

Having completed the witch hunt, his ultimate purpose of witch hunting was to elevate his status within the Holy Healing Church to access some classified information. With his current Holy Healing Church Reputation, he could elevate his Witch Hunter rank to Red Level without issue.

Leaving the castle, Su Xiao found that A Mu had parked the carriage at the doorway. After boarding the carriage, the group set off for the Holy Healing Church Headquarters in the Central Plains Region.

...

After four days of continuous travel, day and night, Su Xiao returned to Holy Healing City.

On the bustling street, a carriage stopped in front of the Holy Healing Church Headquarters. The three Dokuns pulling the carriage collapsed on the ground, drawing the attention of nearby civilians.

Su Xiao jumped off the carriage and headed toward the main entrance of the Holy Healing Church. At this moment, his injuries had mostly recovered. For full recovery, it would still take another two to three days.

PS: (Originally confident to write six Chapters, but after finishing the fifth Chapter, was too tired to continue, will compensate tomorrow. The adjusted time-difference Wasted Mosquito is a fighting mosquito now!)
