Wizard: I Can Refine Everything

Chapter 4: Your Poison, My Panacea



Looking at Beelzebub, who was once arrogant but now deferential, a slight smile appeared on Richard's face.

"So it was a misunderstanding, misunderstandings are easier to deal with."

Richard took out a Destiny Contract from his pocket.

"Since it was a misunderstanding, I suppose you won't have any problem signing this contract, Beelzebub."

Beelzebub glanced at the contract. Its contents were simple: the Abyss would join the Wizard Alliance to collectively oppose the Civilization Devourer.

Before the Civilization Devourer is eliminated, alliance members must not engage in war or hostile actions.

After reading the contract, Beelzebub's heart shifted, and he replied with a full smile: "Hahaha, signing this contract is naturally not a problem. But you know, Dominator Richard, the Abyss is not something I can solely control.

Without Samuel, I alone can't rule the Abyss."

"There's no need to rush," Richard smiled at Beelzebub, but the look in his eyes was far from friendly.

"I'm confident that Dominator Samuel will agree to the contract."

Seeing he couldn't deceive Richard, Beelzebub could only take the contract and leave his mark on it.

He knew that if he dared not cooperate, Richard had plenty of ways to torment him.

Once the contract was signed, Richard put it away again.

As Beelzebub said, he alone couldn't rule the entire Abyss Civilization. His mark alone wasn't enough for the contract to be fulfilled.

Samuel also needed to leave a mark for the contract to truly take effect.

After signing the contract, the atmosphere on the platform eased a bit.

Talal Peak stayed in the corner, slowly eliminating the virus inside—this virus was also used by Beelzebub against Samuel.

Richard was curious about this virus and introduced a bit into his body.

Beelzebub didn't stop him, as a defeated person, he had no authority to prevent the victor from enjoying the spoils.

Moreover, Beelzebub entertained the idea of watching Richard's misfortune.

"A Dominator gathering resources also dares to toy with my Life Virus?" he thought with an evil snicker.

But soon, his amusement vanished.

After Richard absorbed the virus, though his body mutated, the extent was minimal.

Moreover, after the mutation, a wave of energy emanated from within Richard. Along with these energy waves, Richard's Life Radiation was steadily increasing.

"What is he doing? Why did his physique improve after ingesting my virus without any major mutation!"

Beelzebub's eyes widened, as he suddenly wondered if he was experiencing hallucinations due to his damaged soul.

Since when did his Life Virus gain the function of enhancing physique?

Meanwhile, Talal Peak was also shocked seeing Richard's physique continuously improve.

This Life Virus was a troublesome matter even for him. It could only be suppressed during combat, and required attention to eliminate afterwards.

How did it become a tonic for Richard?

But soon, he found a perfect explanation for himself.

"No wonder he's the new King of Titans, his strength foundation is truly extraordinary."

Soon, Richard opened his eyes, and all signs of mutation disappeared.

Beelzebub's virus was indeed formidable; once it entered the body, it spread along the energy cycle.

The energy cycle was far faster than the blood cycle, a Dominator's energy could cycle thousands of times in an instant.

Upon spreading, the virus penetrated like a drill into cells, invading the Life Core and altering its structure.

Then, mutation commenced.

However, the virus's triumph is also its defeat.

Changing the Life Core's information without rules results in mutation, but altering it with rules leads to evolution.

Using the Abyssal Evolution Field, the Life Core changes induced by the virus became a catalyst for Richard's evolution.

They loosened the Life Core, causing scattered fragments to merge under the Field's influence, at a pace matching the virus's replication.

As the Field's intensity increased, the virus even broke apart within the Field, becoming nourishment for Richard's evolution.

In just a brief moment, his physique increased by fifty points.

With a face full of surprise, he smiled at Beelzebub and said, "Beelzebub, your biotechnology is quite remarkable. If I'm not mistaken, this mutation virus might even be effective on Breaking Limit Sovereigns."

Seeing Richard smiling and perfectly fine, Beelzebub felt as if something was stuck in his throat for the first time, unable to go up or down, his smile was merely skin-deep:

"Dominator Richard, you're right, this virus indeed has an effect on Breaking Limit Sovereigns."

"Do you have any more of this virus?"

"...Hmm?"

Beelzebub looked at Richard with astonishment.

Is he really treating his virus as a tonic?

Richard's smile remained unchanged, this Life Virus was excellent, but it could only be used as a one-time tool.

After one evolution, he became immune to the virus.

Observing Richard who didn't alter his statement in the slightest, Beelzebub also grew somewhat curious.

Although he was not a Wizard, all creatures that pursued the path of Spiritual Evolution had a curiosity for exploring the unknown.

He was very curious about how Richard managed to accomplish all of this.

"Yes, of course," Beelzebub laughed, "However, cultivating this virus of mine is rather troublesome, we..."

Before Beelzebub could finish his sentence, he noticed that Tara's gaze had sharpened considerably.

It is your honor that the King asks you to take the virus, and yet you dare to hesitate?

Richard glanced sideways at Tara, signaling that there was no need for such aggression.

After all, he would rely on Beelzebub for warfare in the future, and there was no need to exploit him like a slave.

Hit with a stick then offer a sweet date, that's the proper way. Only giving the stick without the sweet date, even a slave owner wouldn't do that.

Subsequently, he turned and looked at Beelzebub, smiling, "Then what do you want?"

What to ask for, that was a difficult question.

Beelzebub wanted many things, but whether Richard had them or not, even if he did, it was unlikely he would give them to him.

Thinking about it, a flash of inspiration suddenly crossed Beelzebub's mind.

There was indeed something on Richard, worthless to him but extremely useful to Beelzebub.

"I am truly grateful that you, Richard Dominator, are so considerate of my difficulties," Beelzebub pretended to be moved, "I don't want much, just a piece of your Flesh is enough.

My virus can affect Dominators, yet you use it as a tonic, which makes me quite curious."

Upon hearing this request, Richard laughed heartily, "That's too simple. Just a piece of Flesh."

Saying this, a piece of Flesh bulged from his palm and formed into a meatball.

Seeing this, Beelzebub didn't waste words; a massive mouth opened on his abdomen, where a gigantic tongue wriggled before spitting out a mass of multicolored mucus.

Richard took out a Destiny Contract and made a covenant with Beelzebub, forbidding him from giving it to others, using it as a Curse medium, or revealing the secrets within the Flesh to anyone.

During this process, Tara was constantly on the verge of speaking but ultimately refrained.

The transaction completed, Beelzebub excused himself under the pretense of research and returned to his nest.

After his departure, Tara finally spoke, "King, why did you give him the Flesh? Are you plotting something?"

Though Tara had beaten Beelzebub, he knew it was merely due to Beelzebub's paralysis. Without permission limitations, he would at most be on par with Beelzebub.

Breaking Limit Sovereign is ultimately Breaking Limit Sovereign.

So he understood that with Beelzebub's capabilities, he would certainly gain many benefits from Richard's Flesh, possibly even stealing the Bloodline of Abyss Titans.

As an old-generation Abyss Dominator, once he stole the Abyss Titan Bloodline, Richard would have no means to restrict his Abyss Curse.

Although Richard is the King of Titans, within the Abyssal Will, this title holds no privilege.

If Beelzebub truly stole the Bloodline, Richard would not only be unable to ban his Abyss Curse but would instead be subjected to Beelzebub's constraints.

"Of course, otherwise why would I give it to him?" Richard laughed.

"He only intends to steal the Bloodline."

Tara bowed slightly, "I spoke out of turn."

But after bowing, he curiously asked, "King, did you tamper with that Bloodline?"

"No," Richard gently shook his head, "If I tampered with it, he would certainly notice. Though my knowledge is profound, it's not enough to deceive a Breaking Limit Sovereign adept in biological Flesh.

Moreover, tampering would be pointless. If he doesn't gain permissions, he will surely secretly steal other Abyss Titan Bloodlines in the future."

"Then how do you plan to counteract?" Tara asked in astonishment.

Richard chuckled, not answering Tara's question. In his ear, the voice of the King of Titans was tinged with slyness.

"I'll keep a watch on him, and when the time comes, as long as you cooperate, even this little fellow, even if he is a leader, will have to behave."

Although the Abyssal Will is mechanical, there are people within it.

If Beelzebub dares to steal the Bloodline, Richard can make him like a Puppet.

Collecting the virus left by Beelzebub, Richard began experiencing them one after another.

The structures of these viruses were a mutation from the Life Virus. Although their effects varied, they all maintained the feature of stimulating the Life Core.

Even when compared to the Life Virus, these viruses were somewhat weak in stimulating the Life Core, but it just meant the enhancement was slightly slower.

Richard infected himself one by one, and with each infection, his Physique saw varying degrees of improvement.

Days passed, and in the blink of an eye, a year's time had elapsed.

During this year, Richard had tried all the viruses left by Beelzebub, and with their assistance, he cultivated quite a few viruses himself.

With the help of these viruses, his Physique increased from the original 7500 points to 9000 points.

In terms of abilities, the ability of viral infection was added.

Compared to before the enhancement, Richard felt that he could now easily handle two of his previous self.

But just as Richard was indulged in research, a terrifying pressure that made one's spine shiver suddenly entered his perception.

Richard and Tara suddenly looked towards the World Tree's exterior, only to see a massive vortex appearing in the sky at some unknown time.

A figure whose mere presence was enough to cause the World Master's spirit to collapse slowly walked out from the vortex—

The Abyss Dominator Samuel had returned.
