Vol-2: 003. The Ability User of the Face Fruit

  Increasing the bounty wasn't all that surprising.

  Massag the Abyss Humanitarian, unc Frost-Pted's human experiments, attag armed forces, aroying mobile armor—any one of these could cause a huge uproar.

  But for the bounty to reach this level... it seemed like someone important in Frost-Pted had taken notice of him.

  "It doesn't matter, I've already fled abroad. Frost-Pted's influence isn't that strong."

  Li Aozi figured it might be because Frost-Pted's higher-ups feared the moral backsh from the Abyss Humanitarian's human experiment sdal, leading them to pce such a high bounty on him.

  Besides, the GTB's bounty hunters were at most Beta tier. If they came after him, they'd just be delivering themselves as targets.

  On the bright side, the specialty reward leasant surprise.

  The specialty 【Infamous Madman】 was quite useful, whether it was the increased critical rate and effect from the good side or the increased dodge rate and distance from the evil side. It was banced and suitable for any profession.

  For Li Aozi, having this specialty meant he could atirely on his own terms, doing good or evil as he pleased, ultimately being himself.

  "Being globally wanted is a bit of a hassle. I'll stay in Triaown for a while."

  After all, Tianhuan was one of the four tries, and now that he was a household name, appearing in public would cause quite a stir.

  Li Aozi, familiar with the road ditions of the Outer World, packed up his things ahe station, heading tle Town on foot.

  Physical endurand distance were no issue for him. Activating his gravity Omega Energy, Li Aozi’s body floated steadily, then accelerated to 400 kilometers per hour, skimming swiftly along the ground.

  Along the way, several javelin dragons and fork-tailed bats attempted to ambush him, but they barely had time to react before he sliced off their tails, ri fats and proteins, leaving them behind as he sped away.

  The venienega Energy arent, as it required far fewer resources and equipment pared to other professions.

  Rag like the wind, Li Aozi wreaked havo the wildlife of the Outer World, even helping a group of wanderers whose vehicle was about to be overturned by a heavily armored rhinoceros beast.

  The massive beast, strong as a heavy truck, charged at Li Aozi, but he easily redirected it, causing it to be crushed us ow. With 2000 experience points gained, Li Aozi was about to leave when the wanderers’ leader reized him and called out:

  "Excuse me, are you... Li Aozi?"

  Li Aozi removed his mask, revealing a handsome face with bckish-red hair fluttering in the wind. Even a casual gnce could captivate ordinary people.

  Li Aozi’s appearance wasn't soft entle; he had sharp features and pale skin remi of marble statues, with gray eyes that gave an impression of human indifference.

  With 100 points of extraordinary charisma, he surpassed what ordinary people could uaending beyond physical appearao a charismatid supernatural affinity.

  Li Aozi’s expressionless face was interpreted by others as approachable, untainted by greed or earthly s, deeply toug people's hearts.

  Influenced by this charisma, people instinctively wao follow and approach him. The wanderer leader coughed, nearly losing his posure.

  'Damn, a man be this good-looking.'

  "It's me," Li Aozi responded casually. "Drive safely. I suggest headio that rocky area. I've cleared out the beasts there, so it’s safer."

  "It really is Li Aozi!" the wanderer leader excimed. "We heard a few days ago that you attacked the Abyss Humanitarian and saved many people. The Subway Brotherhood even pns to give you a pewter medal for your tributions to the Outer World."

  "I didn’t save many people." Li Aozi shook his head and said, "I only saved one baby."

  Frost-Pted had taken Du Zexin, Xue Nuo, and Zhou Liefeng. Xue Nuo would survive more easily under Frost-Pted's care than in the harsh enviro of the Outer World.

  "That’s still incredible, and you just saved us too," the wanderer leader said with admiration. "My name is Locke, and I lead this group. Please allow me to thank you on their behalf."

  As he spoke, he pulled out a packet of seeds and hahem to Li Aozi.

  Li Aozi didn’t think much of it and took them casually. Theiced the packaging and said softly:

  "Huh? This is..."

  "We don't have any valuable items. These seeds were distributed by the Greening Base’s teis... maybe they'll be useful to you?" Locke added quickly, fearing Li Aozi might be displeased. "If possible, we'd like to invite you for some hot soup..."

  "No need, food is precious to you."

  Li Aozi weighed the packet of seeds in his hand and said pyfully:

  "These will do. They are useful to me."

  Without waiting for Locke to insist, he floated up and quickly flew away, leaving Locke to gaze after him, exg:

  "Li Aozi really is a good person."

  【Good Value +3】

  【Specialty Activated: Critical Rate and Critical Effect +10%】

  What seemed like a small episode of helping others turned out to be signifit. The seeds reminded Li Aozi of something.

  When he raided the Abyss Humanitarian, he copied a lot of their data, including how to grow ied pnts from the Abyss Virus aract raw materials to make Abyss potions.

  Both 【Artisan】 and 【Biochemist】 could make potions and equipment. bining the two would be a great synergy.

  These seeds made Li Aozi realize something: 【Biochemist】 has a period of weakness during the mid-game, where biochemical sce from level 60 to 120 is hard to vert into bat power.

  Other professions might just ehis period, but 【Biochemist】 pyers had a different mi: if I bat power, why not switch to support?

  So, they colborated with 【Artisan】 specialists to create a device called the ‘Portable Biochemical Pool’.

  Teically, the biochemical pool was like a battlefield b and emergency factory.

  The biochemical pool allowed 【Biochemist】 pyers to deploy it anywhere, produce items, and evee moo supplement bat power.

  With his knowledge of 《Pioneer-Level?Biochemical Materials Sce》, he could start by crafting a simplified version of the biochemical pool.

  Li Aozi’s advertisement was out there, but his product line wasn’t ready yet.

  “【Biochemist】 covers a wide range of fields, from biology, agriculture, and medie to military, eics, and industry. I modify the seeds and trol the produ of the Abyss experimental potion's raw materials.”

  The Greening Base was one of the three majanizations ier World, created by a team of old-era 【Biochemist】 extremists. Despite their extreme enviroalism, their seeds had impressive traits.

  Once he set up the biochemical pool, he could reverse-ehese seeds to find something useful.

  Triaown was now in sight. As a key industrial town under warlord trol, it was bristling with smokestacks and produ pnts, powered by massive nuclear facilities. Surrounding it were tall crete walls and barbed wire, with guard posts and mae guns on high alert.

  Triaown was a wealthy industrial town ier World, situated in a triangle of tungsten, iron, and uranium mines. It was bound to prosper—unfortunately, it y in a tested area between Frost-Pted and Tianhuan, making it highly coveted.

  Li Aozi recalled there being a boratory under warlord trol here. With his charisma and identity, he should be able to borrow it, activate 【Artisan】, and create the biochemical pool prototype.

  After that, he po go to Tianhuan’s key industrial zoo gather professional knowledge and materials to perfect the biochemical pool.

  He adjusted his appearand nded nearby, too zy to wait in line for a security check, and boldly walked over.

  “Stop! No cutting in line. Who are you?”

  The warluards saw Li Aozi cutting in line and called out, but seeing his tattered windbreaker, they hesitated and exged nervous gnces.

  ——Nobody wao provoke these crazy Junkers.

  “I’m Li Aozi, the Abyss Destroyer, the oh a 20 million Derby bounty worldwide.”

  Li Aozi removed his mask and stated.

  Outer World people looked down on the four nations' bounties. Hearing his words and feeling his extraordinary charisma, they showed admiration.

  “It’s really you.”

  “Pride of the Outer World.”

  “I saw you trending oui. You’re even more handsome in person.”

  Li Aozi waved his hand and said:

  “No more words, brive me some face. I have business with your lord, Mr. Aud Jude.”

  Hearing this, the guards were at a loss. Having a killer like him show up, they didn’t know how to react.

  Fortunately, Li Aozi’s charisma was too high. For ordinary people, there was no doubt about his words. One guard asked:

  “Uh, why are you looking for our boss?”

  “It’s no big deal.”

  Li Aozi said:

  “I have some fidential data from the Abyss Humanitarian, including advanced medical teology. It’s useless to me... but I’m sure Mr. Aud wouldn’t refuse such a deal, right?”
