Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start-Chapter 257 - 152: Give Me Your Heart_2

"Lead the way."

"This way."

The two of them arrived at a place resembling a castle, where a faint pink mist loomed intermittently.

Baiyi looked at Moon Side, with a peculiar expression in his eyes.

Why did this kid bring him to such a place?

Seemingly aware of Baiyi’s thoughts, Moon Side lowered his head and said, "The five pleasure houses in the city are all run by this Enchanting Demon. She’s rich..."

Baiyi: ...

However, Enchanting Demons are relatively stable demons in the Abyss, belonging to the rare, intelligent type of Abyssal Demons.

Baiyi had never seen one before and was somewhat curious.

Just as he was about to knock on the door to meet the real person, a sense of appetite slowly rose in Baiyi’s heart.

It seems... Enchanting Demons are also food for Evil Thoughts...

Baiyi thought for a moment, turned around, and walked toward a nearby shop. Moon Side was taken aback, hurriedly followed, and bowed his head, not daring to speak.

Behind the door, an Enchanting Demon with pink bat wings and a tail ending in a heart shape heaved a long sigh of relief.

She patted her chest, feeling grateful; she was nearly eaten.

Baiyi casually found a decent shop, then started using their low-tier materials to let Moon Side practice. Learning Transformation Science also required studying Potion Making and Technology. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

On this outing, he brought very few materials besides Soul Minerals, otherwise, he wouldn’t need to find any fat sheep.

Of course, out of courtesy, Baiyi activated Malicious Intimidation, respectfully and politely asked the shop owner for permission, and only began using their materials after receiving full support.

This was a gift, not a robbery.

In the ensuing time, Sin City remained quiet. The only disturbance was caused by that X-Type Transformation monster, a gigantic six-meter-tall being that floated about causing trouble, which then got recruited for the Law Enforcement Team.

Baiyi couldn’t act recklessly in Sin City, so having such an outcome for a transformed being was already decent.

However, Baiyi never saw the transformed Frenzy as it was probably reclaimed by Maku.

In the quiet teaching sessions, this guy Moon Side was impressive, making great strides in pharmaceuticals and flesh transformation, especially the latter.

He’s currently at the basic level in Transformation Science, but some of his skilled transformations are comparable to those in Dongwu City. When the ai clone was also assigned, his talent, which surprised Baiyi, was revealed.

Absolutely calm surgeries, where every step was nearly perfect.

In a mere five days, he successfully reached Level 20 and upgraded Basic Transformation Science to Intermediate, making notable progress in Alchemy too.

Of course, Baiyi also advanced somewhat. Over these days, he got the hang of the skills [Black Gaze] and [Celestial Demon Flash], and spent four skill points to master them.

Originally, the skill [Celestial Demon Flash] didn’t require that many skill points, but as it was a class skill for Demon Swordsmen, it was challenging for others to learn and practice, taking 1000 skill level points and two skill points to master it.

As of now, Baiyi only had 20 skill points left. It’s enough for now, but those three Curses combined with Highly Poisonous require at least 8 skill points, so there’s still a shortage of skill points.

When the seventh day arrived, Baiyi paused as he was flipping through a highly poisonous book. He suddenly looked up at the exit of Sin City.

Over there, a presence making him uneasy was approaching, albeit slowly, but it was strong, like... Legendary?

But that’s impossible...

He stood up, left the Hive behind, and said calmly, "You wait here for me, I’ll go take a look outside."

"Yes!" Moon Side paused, lowered his head, and responded respectfully.

When he looked up again, Baiyi had already vanished.

Dim, filthy.

There were no street lights outside the city, and the sunlight barely reached here, making it resemble a stinking garbage dump.

Baiyi just appeared when he inhaled a foul odor, frowning, he carefully sensed, his eyes full of gravity.

Not a Legendary aura, but rather... the aura of a Divine Abomination.

This Scavenger Sed... is a roaming Divine Abomination in Xia!

How is that possible...

Baiyi stared solemnly into the darkness, seeing a high-level creature openly revealing itself, slowly approaching.

Clatter~ Clatter~

Clanking and thudding....

The sound of chains pulling a wooden cart echoed, Baiyi’s muscles tightened sharply as he sensed danger, this Scavenger was mightier than he imagined.

Thump thump thump....

The wooden wheels approached rapidly, the sound of dragging chains walked over with a steady rhythm.

Closer, even closer.

Baiyi could already make out a small silhouette.

It was an old woman dressed in a black mage robe, wearing a hood that only revealed a wrinkled nose.

In one hand, she held a rusty chain, which dragged a small wooden cart, moving unhurriedly in Baiyi’s direction.

Occasionally, she stopped to pick up things from the ground, such as discarded metals, some glass bottles, and some moldy food.

She placed the items into the cart’s cargo hold and then continued moving forward with almost mechanical steps.

Baiyi was tense, ready to use the Celestial Demon Flash to leave at any moment; the old woman was too bizarre.

Rustle~

When she got closer, Baiyi could see that the chain was not being pulled by the old woman, but directly pierced through her hand, deeply embedded in her flesh.

She seemed to notice Baiyi, stopping her steps, her voice dry and hollow: "Young man, do you have any trash for the old woman?"

Baiyi hesitated, a sense of crisis washed over him. His spiritual power surged, and in an instant, he pulled a cloth bag from the nearby trash pile, filled it with a heap of garbage, and brought it back.

"I do, here." Baiyi handed over the trash.

"So much? Thank you, young man." Sed took the trash, placed it on the ground, and used her free hand, which wasn’t entangled by the chain, to rummage through it.

Soon after, she picked up a small piece of iron and tossed it into the cart behind her.

"Young man, the old woman has nothing to repay you with; why don’t you give me your heart instead?"

Baiyi paused, somewhat silent: "Sorry, I only have one heart, and I can’t give it to you for free."

The old woman looked up, her hollow, dry voice carrying a certainty: "You have three hearts; you can give me one."

Baiyi remained silent for a long time, then remembered something and took out a slightly bloody wooden box from his space ring: "How about this one?"

The old woman nodded: "This is the one I want. The heart in your body now is too evil; I don’t like it."

The old woman reached out and took the small box Baiyi offered, opened it, revealing a half-withered Human Race heart inside.

This was an organ left by Baiyi when transforming Evil Thought. The first step in the transformation of Evil Thought is to replace it with the Heart of Extreme Evil, just like the Madness Transformation requires replacing it with the Violent Demon Heart first thing.

In Transformation Science, the heart remains core.

"What a pity, it has withered."

There was a trace of regret in her voice. She extended her chain-pierced hand and gently stroked the heart with a rustling sound.

Thump thump...

The sound of a heartbeat echoed, and Baiyi paused, staring in amazement at the heart that was starting to throb slowly.

Thump thump...

As some of the bloodstains on the chain entered the heart, it began to emanate an unprecedented vitality.

Thump thump... thump thump...

The heartbeat grew louder, gradually displaying a hint of liveliness.

"It likes your heart...."

The low murmurs carried satisfaction as the old woman brought the heart in her hand closer to her own chest.

Splurt~

Thump thump~ thump thump~

The sound of two heartbeats echoed as the old woman reached inward, then outward again, now holding an energetic heart turned withered and weak.

Meanwhile, the aura of this scavenger grew vibrant.

"I give you my heart...."

Rustle~

The sound of the iron chain seemed to suppress the voice of the Scavenger Sed, but she didn’t intend to repeat, instead bypassing Baiyi, heading towards Sin City.

Thump thump thump... crack crack crack... rustle...

The pace of the cart’s wheels quickened slightly as the Scavenger Sed seemed to rejuvenate after acquiring the heart from the Dark Side.

Baiyi gazed at the heart still clutched in his hand, tinged with fresh blood, lost in silence.

Thump thump... thump thump.

At this moment, the heartbeat was not only Baiyi’s own but also of this one... God’s heart!
