Chapter 236: First-level Cursed Organism

Locke grabbed Albert and Sisyphus and flew over a whole pool of dark green acid, leaving the Cursed Ghoul Army behind.

When Sisyphus saw them escape, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Just as his tense heartstrings relaxed, he started coughing violently again and even coughed out some blood clots. Locke carefully discovered that those blood clots contained the characteristics of the cursed particles.

The main research area of the senior curse master [Rashid Tariel] in this special project seems to be the curse particles in the bodies of tiny cursed organisms, while the research on plague cores is even more incomplete.

On the contrary, Zhushizi seems to have made at least a batch of barely usable gadgets.

Seeing Sisyphus so weak, Albert thought for a moment and said to Locke, “Brother Locke, please sell Sisyphus a bottle of Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion!”

“He’s dying.”

Locke looked puzzled. “What, Senior Albert, don’t you have a better potion to fight the Corruption? I see you’re barely infected, and I was thinking of asking you for one.”

Albert slapped his forehead. “That’s completely unrelated. The reason I wasn’t infected by the Curse Erosion is because I took your Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion. I was surprised to find that your Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion at least increased my magic resistance.”

“I’ve already said that I’m not a potion master who studies healing potions. You’re the expert in this area.”

Albert asked, “Does the Troll Adrenaline Potion work? It’s my secret recipe.”

Locke flew in mid-air and nodded.

The troll adrenaline potion activated his magic power, allowing his speed to increase by at least 20% when he used plant mimicry.

Therefore, even though he was holding two people in his hands, his flying speed was only half a percent slower than before.

Locke opened his star ring and asked Albert to take out a bottle of Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion himself. As for the money, he didn’t want it.

After all, the bottle of troll adrenaline potion that Albert had given to himself was a gift from him, so it could only be considered as normal combat consumption.

In the midst of war, there is no question of commercial transactions.

Albert fed Sisyphus a bottle of bear gall potion, and Sisyphus’s complexion looked a little better and had some color.

Albert sighed and said, “Fortunately, there is your special medicine, otherwise Sisyphus would be in trouble.”

Locke glanced at Sisyphus, flying in mid-air, and said, “But even the Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion can’t completely eliminate the curse particles in his body. It can only suppress them temporarily.”

“The Curse Erosion’s main body is a demonized fungus and a cursed organism. Both of these things are difficult to completely eliminate.”

“He’s not like us who haven’t been infected with the Corruption Seeds themselves. After increasing our magic resistance, we can fight against this infection. He has too many Corruption Seeds in his flesh and blood. We can only take him back to the academy and let those First Ring wizards figure out a solution.”

Sisyphus was cursed by a proper first-ring wizard, and ordinary potion master’s assistants could not help him at all.

Sisyphus thanked Locke: “Thank you.”

“A strange wizard.”

Locke discussed with Albert and said, “But there is still a problem, Senior Albert.”

“We are now in a local area of a research institute that is blocked by a magical trap corridor.”

“I used flying magic to get in before and forced my way through that magical trap corridor.”

“But now I’m with the two of you. Even with your troll adrenaline potion, I’m not sure I can cross that cursed magic trap corridor again.”

Locke said: “In my current state, I can only take one person with me. This is also my original expectation.”

As soon as Locke said this, Albert and Sisyphus fell into deep thought. Indeed, Locke was the only one among them who had the magical ability to fly.

But there were three of them.

Asking Locke to take the remaining two people through the trap corridor set by the senior curse master alone is too much to ask.

Albert suddenly said, “Be careful.”

Locke was also in mid-air and discovered that the three ominous Mandrake vines wrapped around his right arm suddenly turned red, which symbolized danger.

Suddenly, a monster with a completely unrecognizable face, covered with red tumors, no skin, and blood steam constantly coming out of its body surface appeared behind them. It stretched out ten fingers towards them, and those ten fingers extended in an extremely short moment, turning into ten tentacles, attacking Locke.

If Locke had not foreseen it in advance and reacted quickly, these ten tentacles would have completely pierced Locke in just a moment.

Locke braked suddenly in mid-air and stopped immediately, leaving the ten tentacles empty.

At the same time, the leaves on the surface of the banana tree behind him were quickly reorganized, so Locke had no time to stop and flew directly in the opposite direction, continuously avoiding the subsequent attacks of the terrible monster.

Extended tentacles, like spears, followed Locke, brushed past him, and pierced the upper wall of the institute’s corridor.

Albert praised, and Locke said, “Locke, the performance of your flying magic plant is really good.”

“Are all flying magic plants so good? Before this, I wasn’t very interested in flying magic plants, but now it seems I really should save up money and buy one.”

Albert turned around, observing the pursuing monster, and said, “That seems to be the most powerful individual among this pile of failed experiments. And it actually has magical pressure. I highly suspect that this is a ghoul transformed by a first-class wizard apprentice.”

“Its physical functions can actually keep up. Our flying speed and attack power are at the top of the Apprentice level.”

“It’s very likely a work of Rashid Talil himself. In that case, it’s a carefully crafted work by a First Ring wizard, though it’s definitely a failure… Locke, you have to be careful.”

Albert used the bellflower wrapped around the middle finger of his right hand and used the [Sonic Fireworks] to fire more than thirty shots in a row at the rear. The invisible sonic shells filled the sky and covered the monster.

This is much more powerful than Anglo’s firing, which requires a pause for a while.

More than thirty holes the size of bowls were punched into the monster’s body.

But its body cells that were hijacked by the cursed particle recovered rapidly with abnormal activity. In a very short time, it repaired and restored its body on the spot and caught up again.

The terrifying zombie roared, and with its body full of blood, flesh and steam, it jumped on the walls of the institute’s corridor and followed Locke at high speed.

No matter how Locke moved in the air, he could never get rid of it.
