Chapter 271: The Weakness of the Snake -V

On the contrary, within the realm of the extraordinary, most extraordinary beings covet the precious item known as the "Water of Redemption" within the Holy Church. Enjoy reading at m-vle-mp,yr.

The Water of Redemption, which can disregard requirements and qualifications to forcibly elevate one's essence, circulates only within the church and is almost never used for trade. The Water of Redemption that circulates in the market or in the hands of individuals is generally obtained through murder and plunder.

When Hyena saw the Water of Redemption, his heart trembled slightly, and his doubts about Faust were thrown to the back of his mind.

Who would bring out such a precious item just to play him, a minor character in the eyes of the fifth stage?

The sublimation of high-level extraordinary beings relies on the accumulation of essence. In other words, the Water of Redemption, which contains a large amount of essence, can not only be used as a rare treasure to directly elevate mortals to extraordinary beings, but also as an opportunity for extraordinary beings to ascend another level.

Why is Hyena a boss in the black market? Because he likes money? Likes doing business? — Of course, it's because he also wants to become a high-ranking fifth-stage powerhouse. The wealth he accumulates in the black market will eventually be converted into resources for his cultivation, and the same is true for other black market bosses.

Therefore, this bottle of Water of Redemption can be used to exchange for other equally valuable resources, but it can also serve as a trump card when one is at the end of one's rope.

"... So, this is the truth, Hyena's calculation."

Marlina looked at the image of Hyena laughing wildly, drinking the Water of Redemption, and whispered, "If DappleSpider cooperates with him, then naturally it's best. With his calculating mind and DappleSpider, they can easily kill Vulture and Rodent. As for how DappleSpider is dealt with in the end, it all depends on his mood."

"And if DappleSpider betrays him, then the contract signed in advance will directly nullify DappleSpider, and Vulture and Rodent, who think they have once again outsmarted Hyena, will not expect him to have the unreasonable trump card of the Water of Redemption in his hand, making it not difficult for Hyena to fight against the two, and DappleSpider will undoubtedly die in the end.

The outcome is still him sweeping the other three bosses and monopolizing the black market."

"No matter what, he has a high probability of winning, plus Mr. Ansel's hint..."

"Oh, I didn't hint at anything." The young Hydral showed an innocent smile, "It's just a reasonable suggestion, and it's about black market management. These choices, this way of thinking..."

He tapped his temple, "They were all thought up by Mr. Hyena himself, it has nothing to do with me."

"So, so..."

Seraphina looked at Hyena, who had drunk the Water of Redemption and whose strength had skyrocketed, killing Vulture and Rodent in just a few rounds, and said incredulously, "He's going to win? He's fine? Everyone else is done for? Ansel, you're not really going to let this guy run the black market, are you?"

"You're too anxious, Seraphina."

Ansel rubbed the girl's head hard, looked at the image displayed on the screen, and smiled warmly:

"The drop of blood you dripped into the Water of Redemption is refined by me, that terrifying beast essence..."

"There won't be a second person in this world who can withstand it."

Hyena exhaled a scorching breath from the depths of his lungs, feeling the surging power coursing through his veins as he let out a roar that pierced the heavens.

The deafening cry echoed over the black market, sending shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

"This is... everything."

Intoxicated, he gazed at his palm, "After selling so many human organs, sheeps, contraband, forbidden potions... all of it, it was all for this moment."

For the sake of … transcending to the pinnacle of all creation!

"I was too cautious," Hyena muttered as he approached DappleSpider, who was now bleeding profusely and appeared even less than a mere mortal, his smile growing more ferocious.

"I should have used this vial of Redemption Water right away... I should have crushed you three wretches with dignity... Hahaha, thinking you could outsmart me again? You swine, born a lowly slave!"

With a kick to DappleSpider's abdomen, he shattered her ribs, sneering, "Did you think I survived in the black market all these years just by relying on that damned blood-sucking Luminaris?"

Hyena laughed uproariously, pulling DappleSpider's hair to bring her face close to his, his voice growing increasingly hoarse and mocking, "Perhaps that's what you thought, but alas... fate... the goddess of fate, she stands by my side!"

He smashed her head into the ground and trampled her face, spreading his arms and closing his eyes in praise, "The blood-sucker's demise, the arrival of the esteemed Faust, his support, his promises... all of it, proof of my destiny to become the king of the black market!"

"Look, DappleSpider, can you see it?"

Hyena's breathing grew heavier as he pointed to his face and laughed heartily, "From the depths of despair to the throne in just a few hours! I now possess the power and authority over the black market... while you are but a trivial footnote in my grand journey, the most laughable... failures!"

How could this not be preordained?

If not for the death of Duke of Luminaris, he would have had to struggle with these three for years, possibly even being replaced and discarded after being used.

But with Luminaris gone, he was free to align with the mysterious Lord Faust, who not only persuaded others to monopolize the black market but also granted him the power for a perfect endgame —

What a… perfect, divinely favored, miraculous experience!

The Water of Redemption brought him to the brink of the fifth stage, and within a few years... he could become a true fifth-stage being, leave the wretched mire of the black market, and perhaps one day...

I, so favored by fate... may well sit as an equal with Faust himself!

"Heh heh heh…hahaha…woo…woof…"

Hyena's laughter abruptly ceased.

What sound had he… just made?
