Lord of Mysterious Wizard-Chapter 127 - Second Body Secret Medicine (First Update!)
Chapter 127: Chapter 127 Second Body Secret Medicine (First Update!)
“Indeed, my guess was correct.”
“The initial gift package was a lucky illusion.”
Above one of the empty shells in the Factory Grave, Tang Qi hid in the shadow of a chimney, surveying a large area, the dark night unable to hinder his prying.
But at this moment, within his field of vision, no “fuel” materialized.
This situation had persisted for nearly an hour.
At present, other than the initial Resentful Soul of the Human Centipede, Tang Qi only received a Resentful Soul from a giant Dog-faced Man afterward and then nothing followed.
...
Those Polluters that had swarmed out hadn’t returned in a long time; it wasn’t possible that all had met with mishaps or some other accidents. Most likely, their capture operations weren’t going smoothly, bringing no gains, so naturally, they wouldn’t return to deliver the task.
And Tang Qi, who guarded the outskirts of the graveyard, also fell into a state of boredom.
It wasn’t like this last night.
Although somewhat unwilling, reason told Tang Qi that this was normal.
Spiritual Tide Return, a vigorous resurgence on the Mysterious Side, indeed allowed a large number of Abnormalities to appear, perhaps like those described in books, a “Dark Age” where monsters roamed and humans were no longer the only protagonists would once again envelop the entire world.
But this didn’t mean that from the beginning there would be an endless emergence of Abnormalities, especially demanding ones.
The targets the Polluters captured were exceptionally specific.

They had to be Abnormalities with flesh; phenomenon-like Evil Spirits and Resentful Souls couldn’t be chosen.
Moreover, they had to be within Meiser City.
With so many restrictions, it was only natural that the harvest would decrease.
“Good things that come without effort are always unsustainable.”
Tang Qi muttered quietly, yet his mood wasn’t affected at all.
Perhaps if it were someone else, losing such a huge benefit might be somewhat disappointing.
But for Tang Qi, it was just a casual sigh.
Just then, on a dark street further away, finally another group of Polluters appeared.
It was a four-person team, severely maimed; each had limbs replaced with vine-like intestines, and the leader among them even had his skull cap lifted, through the broken mask, one could clearly see the gray-white brain pulp inside.
Yet even so, there was no sign of death.
Together with the other three Polluters, they dragged an exceptionally tall female.
Like a performer in a circus Freak Show, nearly three meters tall, her clothes were tattered and torn, barely revealing the strong, gray-black muscles underneath.
Due to death, her muscles had relaxed somewhat, yet they still looked terrifying, unimaginable how fearful the strength would be when these muscles burst forth.
The battle between the two sides was undoubtedly fierce; the Polluters’ side victorious, the other side’s corpse intact, but the appearance was ghastly.
Her Resentful Soul slowly drifted out, a brawny woman in a dress, her face incredibly hideous, as if ravaged by fire, beneath her partially draped black hair were eyes filled with deep resentment.
“Some kind of urban legend, the cannibalistic woman from a Freak Show?”
A few Information Fragments flowed past the bottom of Tang Qi’s eyes.
He didn’t look closely, as he now appeared above the head of the cannibalistic woman, still pressing down silently.
…
“Let’s go, no need to come tomorrow night, the gains aren’t worth my waiting time.”
While this thought arose in his mind, Tang Qi’s gaze was fixed on the distant Dark Factory.
The scene from last night reappeared once more; it was regaining its drab inconspicuous appearance, and the deep-seated malevolence was also quickly concealed and disappeared.
Another night passed.
Compared to last night, Tang Qi’s gains were meager.
“Don’t even mention the feeling of brain swelling, it didn’t even make Tang Qi feel fulfilled.”
Without any hesitation, Tang Qi turned back to the small building.
He also decided that he would not come to stake out tomorrow night. The yield of an entire night was only about the same as if he set the traps himself. Furthermore, tomorrow would probably be even more miserable, making it unworthy to continue wasting time.
Moreover, considering the time, Tang Qi already had plans for tomorrow night.
As for peering into the secrets of the Dark Factory, namely the Hastu Club, such a huge matter was currently not something a nobody like Tang Qi could interfere with.
The only thing he was willing to do was to secretly pass some information here to the Ancient Castle Bureau, and still, he had to find the right opportunity.
After returning to the small building, Tang Qi, using the last bit of time, digested the fuel he had collected.
He glanced at the progress of the Meditation Method, fifteen percent.
The severely diminished yield. Last night was a four percent gain, but the night just past, it was only one percent left, hence no wonder Tang Qi was unwilling to continue wasting time.
Of course, compared to honest meditation and cultivation.
This method of adding fuel could almost be considered cheating.
Awakening from the state of the Meditation Method Skill, Tang Qi glanced at the morning fog that had started to appear outside the window, went straight to wash up, and then prepared a simple breakfast for himself.
He had just started eating when the crisp sound of the doorbell suddenly rang.
Tang Qi put down his food, and as he approached the door, he sensed a somewhat familiar aura from outside.
Upon opening the door, it was indeed the black-clothed man he had encountered before, a calm special agent.
In his hands were still two boxes.
A delicate black wooden box and a simple gray wooden box.
Tang Qi took them both, inside the gray one was definitely bullets again, but the quantity was half of last time, and in the black wooden box was probably the Mysterious Materials Tang Qi intended to trade for.
“Still picking up the items tomorrow morning, Sir?”
“Yes!”
After a brief exchange, the black-clothed agent left straight away.
Tang Qi held the boxes and went to the workbench, setting aside the box with the bullets, but lightly touched and opened the black wooden box.
Inside, on a piece of silk fabric, lay a heart.
To be precise, it was a dried heart.
A small one, about the size of two thumbs.
As Tang Qi’s gaze focused on it, an unexpected ghost light emerged, and a special image entered his vision.
[Mysterious Object: Heart of a Transforming Monster.]
[State: Dried.]
[Information Fragment One: A heart from a Transforming Monster, a special kind of evil Extraordinary Creature, adept at hiding in darkness, observing a human or creature’s habits, then killing them and transforming into their image to replace them.]
[Information Fragment Two: After its heart is dried, its uses include Secret Medicine, casting, and it is also a favorite material for taming or enchanting among Spiritual Plant Cultivators, Beast Tamers, and Beast Shepherds.]
“Sigh!”
With the appearance of the image, it was confirmed.
This little dried heart was indeed the Secret Medicine Material Tang Qi needed.
The many uses in the second Information Fragment actually served the same purpose, all requiring the extraction of the “Transformation Power” within the heart.
Old Coulson might think that Tang Qi, as a Wild Creature Forger, was planning to tackle higher difficulty in independently creating Mysterious Objects, thus needing the heart of a Transforming Monster.
But the truth was, Tang Qi was preparing a very special Secret Medicine recipe he had found in the complex knowledge from the Original Secret Medicine School.
Its name was… Second Body Secret Medicine.
