Wizard System: Dissecting a Mutated Monster From the Start - Chapter 33 - Ouroboros City

Under the girl’s lead, Edward passed through the bookshelves.

Before they were halfway there, a weakly old man approached them.

He chased the little girl away and told her not to cause trouble here.

The old man looked at Edward and said lazily, “It’s useless to tempt my employee. You have to pay a corresponding price for any information you want!”

“Looking at your expression, this is your first time at the black market, right?!”

“Yes, this is my first time coming to the black market. As for the price you’re worried about, there’s no issue at all!”

Edward took out a bag of gold coins from his bag and smiled, “Are these enough?!”

The old man was instantly invigorated. A big business deal had arrived.

He took the money bag slowly and shook it with his hand. The weight was okay.

The old man looked old and wrinkled. He did not even have much hair on his head.

It would not be surprising if he died in the next instant.

But for Edward who had the system’s analysis, this old man was no simple character.

[System prompt: According to the bone analysis, his age has reached 89 years. Strength: Rank 3 Wizard. Special changes have been made to his body. His bloodline contains a unique supernatural fluctuation.]

“Guest, don’t worry. No matter what information you want, I have it here! I can even sell some strange little things!”

Edward waved his hand, realizing that it was time to get down to business.

The old man looked frail, but Edward might not be able to take him down if they really fought.

After all, this old man had undergone a bloodline transformation.

At this moment, the little girl with golden hair had tears in her eyes. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She ran over and kicked the old man, then smiled at Edward and ran away.

Only the old man was left holding his leg and cursing!

“Generous customer, don’t look at my mischievous granddaughter anymore. She’s not for sale. I suggest you come back in a few years!”

As the old man spoke, he picked up a book that was marked with various information.

“Then, what news do you want to ask?” The old man asked with a smile.

The bag of gold coins had disappeared.

Edward was not too bothered by it, but he detected a strange mysterious wave in the system.

It was in the store’s grocery store!

“Let’s put the news aside for now. I want to take a look at your groceries!”

The old man had no reason to stop him from giving out money. He hurriedly led the way.

He had already used the system to scan these miscellaneous items. There were quite a few valuable items.

The strange fluctuation given by the system came from a human skin scroll inside.

This thing was constantly emitting waves that were different from other supernatural items.

“Oh, generous guest, I didn’t expect your gaze to be so extraordinary. First it was my adorable granddaughter, and now it’s this human skin scroll!”

The old man started his acting.

“You must know that this scroll is the work of a Necromancer. Legend has it that this wizard has spent his entire life researching this item, and even has a great relationship with the inner world of wizards. If you’re interested, I won’t ask for more. On the account of my granddaughter, I’ll sell it for 80,000 gold coins!”

The sly smile on the old man’s withered face made Edward want to punch him.

At this moment, Edward’s system gave the results.

[System prompt: The material of the scroll is indeed human skin. The special fluctuation came from the thirty-ninth page of the scroll. After looking at it many times, the content is already very vague. The host can use the system’s subsystem to restore it to 30%.]

Edward looked expressionlessly at the old man who was getting more and more excited as he talked. It was indeed like he said, but the special content had been worn away.

This was not worth the price!

80,000?

With the system, he believed that he could spend time restoring the contents of the scroll through the database, but…

“Old man, do I look like a sucker?”

“Ah, this…” The old man found the worn area of the scroll and laughed awkwardly, “After all, this is done by a Necromancer who spent half his life…”

“Then, how about 4000?”

The old man probed cautiously.

Edward was just short of shouting that he was a true businessman.

The old man actually divided it by 20 instantly.

Edward took out a heavy-looking money bag under the old man’s dumbfounded gaze.

“There are 40,000 gold coins in here. The one just now has 50,000 gold coins. It’s a total of 90,000 gold coins.”

As he spoke, he threw it at the old man.

The old man caught it and grinned at Edward, but the next sentence made him look as though he had just eaten shit.

“4000 for this human skin scroll. 10,000 for information. The rest will be used to buy your granddaughter!”

“Kid, do you know that I am a…”

The old man’s face darkened. He was about to reveal his identity and teach Edward a lesson when he was interrupted.

Edward took out ten bottles of potions from his pocket, six of which were Meditation Potions of superior quality!

In that instant, Edward saw various emotions flash across the old man’s face. There was greed, conflict, contemplation, and reluctance. In the end, they all turned into a smile.

“Guest, it’s a deal. We have a deal! You can take her away in five years!”

————

After receiving the information, Edward arrived at the territory of Ouroboros through a teleportation circle in the black market.

The system detected a large number of internal injuries in the old man’s body and estimated that he would die in a few years. With the potions Edward gave him to sustain his life, he should be able to live till five years later!

“System, compare and repair the human skin scroll.” Edward ordered.

[System prompt: This analysis will take about two months. Please wait patiently!]

Edward was deep in thought. This was the first time the system required such a long time to analyze. He hoped that time would not be wasted. He was looking forward to the secrets left behind by a Necromancer.

Ouroboros City was located in a primitive forest in the Eye of Storms.

This place was gloomy all day long and shrouded in dense fog. This was also the result of the experiments conducted by the Ouroboros members here.

This primeval forest was filled with death attribute creatures. It could be said to be the most dangerous place in the Eye of Storms.

The main members of the Ouroboros were mostly Necromancers, but for some reason, they were classified as a neutral force.

Many people could not understand.

“I’m finally here, Ouroboros City!” Edward smiled as he looked at the ancient city walls crawling with vines.

Perhaps this was the base camp of the Ouroboros, so there was no obstruction in entry and exit.

Very easily, Edward officially stepped into the paradise of the Necromancers!
