Zero Soul Master

Chapter 41 Make yourself smart
Invulnerable to all poisons? !
I really didn't expect it to be this!
But when you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

Arturia is a warrior, and as a warrior, she is most proud of her swordsmanship and strong physique.But Yan Luo is a pharmacist, and what is the pharmacist most proud of?
Most people must have blurted out without hesitation, refining medicine!

Correct! That's right!

But as a pharmacist, he has to deal with countless medicinal materials all day long. Although most of those medicinal materials are harmless to the human body, some of them are highly poisonous!

The so-called three-point poison of medicine, pharmacists can't be cautious all the time, there are always times when they are accidentally contaminated with poison.And the invulnerability to a hundred poisons is almost the physique that many alchemists dream of!
"You mean, with my current physique, ordinary poisons are almost useless, and even some highly poisonous things, I have a fairly high resistance?"

It has to be said that this ability sounds like nothing, and it is not as practical as the body strengthening inherited by Artoria.But if you think about it carefully, it's not always the case!

In the world, who doesn't have an enemy or something?Perhaps your enemies are afraid of your strength and cannot deal with you head-on, but don't forget that the real danger often comes from behind!
In history, how many heroes died not by the enemy's sword, but by other people's schemes?
Among the many methods, poisoning is the most recommended!Whether it's a poison that seals the throat when it sees blood, or a chronic poison that tortures people slowly and is not easy to be detected.In short, this method of killing is very subtle and unexpected, and it is impossible to guard against it.

A wise man is bound to make mistakes!Even wise men are negligent sometimes, but Xiao Bailian doesn't think he can do better than wise men.

Now that he is a member of the Xiao family, and the Xiao family is in troubled times, there is no guarantee that no one will do something.

"Stinky boy, pay more attention at ordinary times, remember, you are now the only heir of our Xiao family!"

Xiao Guofeng had warned him like this more than once, although he didn't say it explicitly, but he could understand the meaning.He is the last bloodline of the Xiao family. If something happens to him, the Xiao family will disappear completely without the help of other people!
In my memory, regarding the memory of the original second young master of the Xiao family, there have been more than one times when someone secretly assassinated, kidnapped and other methods acted on him.Although in the end those people all ended in failure, but this can already explain a lot of problems.

Although the poisoning has not been discovered yet, it must be prevented!

People are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be knifed!
In Xiao Bailian's view, the ability inherited by Yanluo is far more useful than Artoria's!
It's not that the so-called physical strengthening on Artoria's side is useless, but it's enough to make oneself have a certain self-protection ability, but among the summoners, except for those elemental summoners, few of them fight by themselves All of them hid far behind the summoned creatures and commanded the summoned creatures to fight.

As for the aspect of anti-poison physique, it greatly enhanced Xiao Bailian's possibility of preventing some people from poisoning him in the future.

He wasn't afraid of the danger he encountered head-on, wouldn't he still be able to run if he couldn't beat it?Moreover, other people don't know Artoria's strength, how can he not know?
But the danger coming from the dark is hard to guard against!

"Don't be too optimistic. Although your body has developed considerable resistance to poison, it doesn't mean you can rest easy. Ordinary poisons won't work on you, but you should be very careful with some highly poisonous things! "

Maybe seeing the disapproving expression on Xiao Bailian's face, a flash of reminiscence flashed in Yanluo's eyes, as if recalling something, at that moment, Xiao Bailian suddenly felt a deep regret on her body, And a certain bitterness.

"Remember, in this world, nothing is absolute. Even if it is claimed to be invulnerable to all poisons, it is not really immune to all poisons. Maybe one day, a certain inconspicuous grass will directly demand Killed you! The so-called invulnerability to a hundred poisons is actually a joke!"

Speaking of which, the humanoid heroes who can be summoned by the summoner, for some unknown reason, are the ones who encountered certain things during their lifetime and died young directly.Often those great figures in history who can die in bed have never been called out.

Xiao Bailian is clear about Artoria's ending, because he has been involved in all games, novels, anime, etc. about her.But Yan Luo, let alone know, even her true identity is still unknown.

Although she claimed to be the Emperor Yan of Shennong, Xiao Bailian didn't believe it.

But now, Xiao Bailian's originally confident thoughts have been shaken.

Rumor has it that Emperor Yan Shennong is a pharmacist who is invulnerable to all kinds of poisons. He has traveled all over the world, looking for and understanding various medicinal materials.And because of his physique that is invulnerable to all poisons, Shennong Yandi has always tried the medicinal properties and toxicity of various medicinal materials by himself, basically relying on his own poison to survive, and using himself as a guinea pig to test.

But this is such a person who claims to be invulnerable to all poisons, and all poisons in the world cannot be poisoned to death, but one day when he tried a certain humble medicinal material, he suddenly died of poison!

Is Yanluo really Shennong Yandi?

"Is this...too ridiculous?"

Regardless of whether it is true or not, at least Xiao Bailian now has two pretty good abilities.Regardless of the anti-drug physique, Xiao Bailian did not intend to waste this ability in terms of body strengthening.

As for how to use it, it's very simple.

"You want to learn sword?" Artoria seemed to have a hearing problem.

"Yes, to be correct, I want to learn fighting skills, at least to be able to protect myself to a certain extent."

As a non-elemental summoner, it is impossible for Xiao Bailian to rush to the front line every time he fights, but he can't hide behind every time, right?And it seems that his summoned heroes are all women, hiding behind women is a matter of a man's dignity!
"No problem, if you have a certain ability to protect yourself, this can be done."

After thinking about it for a while, Artoria nodded and agreed.

"Really?" Xiao Bailian was overjoyed, but he didn't know that because of his request, he directly realized what it means to be in dire straits, what it means to live worse than death!
A girl with a meticulous personality and an unusually old-fashioned personality, earnestly and very earnestly carried out Xiao Bailian's request...

"Help!"

The so-called evils committed by heaven can still be lived, but self-inflicted evils cannot be lived. This is the truth.This is the truth that a certain person finally understood after losing three layers of skin on his body, and the bones of his whole body almost fell apart. In other words, although he knew this truth before, until that time, he finally understood it thoroughly What kind of mood did the person who said those words back then say those words.

Of course, the result is also outstanding, at least in the end, Xiao Bailian can support Artoria's full attack for a period of time, no matter how embarrassed he is, but his blood and tears are not in vain, but truly useful. effect.

Of course, this is all after a while, and now, the entire Xiamu City is in turmoil because of the series of actions of the Xiao family.

"Patriarch, are we just watching like this?"

Today, the Arites family can be described as stealing chickens and losing money.Previously, I thought that the Xiao family didn't have that top-quality soul pill for sale, so they couldn't afford to consume it, and they were the only ones left.

Directly risking the fate of offending many summoners, directly taking advantage of the fire to raise the price.Unexpectedly, at this moment, the Xiao family suddenly appeared again, not only those top-quality soul pills appeared again, but even made a strange request.

"Patriarch, in the past few days, the business of our various stores has dropped by nearly [-]%! And it is still decreasing. Many summoners who originally complained about us have left one after another, and they all went to Xiao's house! The subordinates just don't understand, what's so good about the Xiao family, what kind of membership system, it's even clear that it's just for making money, it's completely free, are those summoners idiots?"

Wutred looked at a nephew standing in front of him with a cold face, and he was quite the voice in the family. After he finished speaking, he glanced at him indifferently, which immediately made him afraid to continue. up.

"The idiot is you! Haven't you discovered the hidden interests behind the Xiao family's method?"

"The subordinates are dull, please let the head of the family express."

He said so, but it was obvious from his disapproving eyes that his true thoughts could be seen.

"The actions of the Xiao family really exceeded the old man's expectations. I didn't expect that Xiao Guofeng would have such means."

If Xiao Bailian was here, he would definitely be astonished, because Wutred actually pointed out the important and key parts of his methods in a few words.

"So that's the case! But outside rumors, these were not done by Xiao Guofeng of the Xiao family, but the idea of ​​his son, the second young master of the Xiao family."

"That kid from the Xiao family? Can you believe this? The old man really doubts whether you are really used to being pampered all these years, and you don't even have any knowledge of this!"

Uhtred snorted coldly, "You don't know what kind of guy the Xiao family is? Xiao Guofeng, it seems that he has really put in so much effort for his only son now, and he even put this kind of thing on his own son's head." , Unfortunately, his Xiao family is doomed to decline! Hehe, that Xiao Li really made me a little worried at the beginning, and I was afraid that he would become a troublesome figure in ten or twenty years. What a pity, what a pity! As for Xiao Bailian, a dude, don’t worry !"

"The master is wise!"

It seems that Uhtred and the entire Patriarch of Arites have created a considerable confusion for themselves, this is something Xiao Bailian still doesn't know, otherwise he would definitely laugh three times!
