My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Chapter 569: Not Resting In Peace

“It’s done. Let’s go.”

The believers who had released the Power of Death had no idea that they had killed an elven assassin. They turned around and left.

A pale being with white-feathered wings floated in the air in the sky, freezing the space into a crystal-clear ice block. Nia flapped her wings and watched the scene in front of her quietly. The corners of her mouth twitched. In her hand was a half-torn, blood-red thorn. That was the elven assassin she had found while searching on the river bank. The assassin was about to poison the river bank at that time, but she had successfully intercepted and killed him.

“I had wanted to kill that assassin, but I didn’t expect that the residents would be able to kill the assassin on their own without my help! That is all thanks to the death element that my esteemed master restored recently. Originally, that power was exclusive to the God of Death’s descendants in ancient times, but now it has become one of the humans’ abilities. Master is as powerful as I imagined,” Nia muttered to herself.

After she discovered that Watson had the fusion system, she did not choose to snatch it like the other gods. Instead, she decided to follow Watson. Her body had already recovered to the strength of a platinum-tier angel because she had chosen Watson. She could unleash a power that was no weaker than that of a god.

At the same time, she had also obtained many additional abilities from Watson. One of them was the Power of Death. That was why she could kill the elven assassin that had infiltrated the city.

“In the past, humans were a relatively small race in the world. The tree spirit seed was also one of them. The tree spirit seed relied on water from the Spring of Life and evolution. The former had many methods that could be broken through, while the latter had many drawbacks. That caused the tree spirit seed to hide near the Forest of Eternity after the Great War!

“As for now, due to the war, many races have been exterminated. Humans have used their reproductive ability to occupy this world. It seems like humans are the strongest! With Master’s help, the human race will only become stronger and stronger.”

After lamenting for a while, Nia’s ears twitched. She looked at the city hall officials’ area, not far away from the river bank.

“I sense the aura of an assassin again. It looks like I don’t need to make a move at this time either.”

…

The room where a particular city hall official was staying was filled with intense arguments.

“Divorce! No matter what you say today, we are going to get a divorce! I didn’t expect you to sleep with another man behind my back. If I didn’t go to the Everything House and spend money to buy information, I would not even know about it.”

Gerald, the city hall clerk, was in that room. At that moment, he was burning with anger. He was scolding his wife, who was wearing light muslin pajamas in front of him.

His beautiful wife also looked furious. “Gerald, think about it! Why did I sleep with that fat official? It was all for you. If it weren’t to get you that clerical position, why would I do such a thing? Do you think I like him?”

His wife’s words made Gerald’s face freeze. Then, he coughed awkwardly, “It doesn’t matter. You slept with another man. I can rely on my own efforts to become a clerk; I don’t need you to do that. If you do such a thing again, we can only get a divorce if you—”

Before he could finish his sentence, the woman in front of him smiled bitterly and took out a dagger from her waist. “There’s nothing else I can do. I love you. I’d rather die than get a divorce. This dagger is a platinum-tier weapon His Highness Watson brought from the royal city. I had wanted to give it to you as a birthday present, but now it seems like I will get to use it.”

As she spoke, the woman took a small bottle containing a dark green poison from her body. “This poison is also a platinum-tier poison that the sea folks brought from the royal city. I bought it to use on that fat official one day, but now—”

Tears streamed down the woman’s face. She opened the bottle and carefully poured the poison on the blade, stabbing it against her neck.

The blade swung in the air, pausing for a moment as if it had stabbed something else. The strong obstruction stunned the woman. She stared blankly at the blade suspended half a meter in front of her neck. Before she could react, Gerald suddenly rushed in front of her and knocked the blade aside.

“I’m sorry, my dear Lisa. I didn’t expect you to love me so much that you’d be willing to die for me. I want to take back what I said just now. I don’t want to divorce you! I will choose to forget what you did. Let’s start again.”

Gerald hugged his wife tightly. When his wife was about to commit suicide, he realized how much he loved the woman in front of him.

“That’s great, Gerald. Thank you for understanding.”

Lisa nodded and hugged Gerald. At that time, she noticed that there were still some remnants of the poison in her hands. She hesitated and said, “This poison—”

“We don’t need it anymore, right?”

Gerald took the poison from his wife and threw it behind him. A faint scream sounded in the air.

“What? Gerald, did you hear something? ” Lisa frowned and raised her eyebrows suspiciously. historical

“I didn’t hear anything. It’s nothing.”

Gerald reached into Lisa’s pajamas and began to take off her clothes.

Before she could say anything else, Gerald covered Lisa’s mouth and carried her to the bed. Not long after that, the two of them started panting.

An elven assassin was lying on the ground in a place that they could not see. His body was made of wind. A long and thin wound was on his throat, and blood was gushing out of it. There was a poison bottle that Gerrard had casually thrown away on top of his wound. The poison entered his body through his throat, making him grab his throat tightly with both hands. He could only make a few syllables with difficulty.

“How… could… this be?”

He had sneaked into that residence because the interior was well-decorated. The master of the house must have quite a high status in the city. If he could kill him, it would definitely cause panic in the city. It was a good idea. Unfortunately, he saw the two people arguing not long after entering the house. He had wanted to sneak toward the woman and slit her throat to admire Gerald’s terrified look.

Who would have thought that he would be the one stabbed and poisoned just before he reached the woman?

That elf had evolved into the storm race. That was a pure elemental race in ancient times. The creatures of the storm race looked like a giant storm that could move freely because their bodies were made of flowing wind. They were difficult to capture and even harder to see. Ordinary physical attacks were ineffective against them.

The dagger that had stabbed him was not an ordinary platinum-tier weapon. It was enchanted with platinum-tier wind suppression magic, freezing his wind-like body when he was hit. He could have used the Spring of Life to resurrect. However, the poison that Gerald threw immediately thwarted his ability to resurrect himself.

The poison that Lisa bought came from the Abedor family, who had earned a large amount of money because they had helped Watson sell the Blessings of the Gods and Demons. The supply of that potion was still in short supply. Robin, who could not become the head of the family, could only increase production. Unfortunately, the other members of the Abedor family did not have as much talent as Rose.

Their potions had failed quite frequently, and among the failed products was a powerful poison that could kill a platinum-tier elite with a single drop. However, the dead could maintain their youth forever, and their corpses would not rot. It was known as the Sleeping Beauty Poison.

The Sleeping Beauty Poison was sold for one-thousandth of the original price for the Blessings of the Gods and Demons. It was used to preserve beautiful specimens that had died so that they would not rot.

Since the Sleeping Beauty Poison originated from the residue of Blessings of the Gods and Demons, which was made from the Spring of Life, the poison contained the characteristics of the Spring of Life. Since it could cause a creature’s bodily functions to fail permanently, the Spring of Life in that elven assassin’s body was coincidentally restrained by that poison.

Even though he had evolved into a platinum-tier creature, he still tried to ambush his prey. Unfortunately, he was killed by the two weak humans instead. That dramatic twist would make the elven assassin unable to rest in peace, even in death.
