41: Chapter 43 The Three Deadly Brothers, Supreme? Supreme!

"Master!"

A dense swarm of black birds descended from the sky, transforming into the graceful silhouette of a young girl amidst squirming flesh and blood.

"I have retrieved the item."

Opening her stomach pouch, the girl retrieved an ancient medal from the squirming flesh.

It was none other than 002, who had gone to recover the sequence under Su Xiu's orders.

"Did you bring it back?" Su Xiu raised an eyebrow slightly.

The bright silver medal looked tarnished with old stains, seemingly due to excessive wear and tear.

The spot where a star gem was originally embedded was now completely empty.

With its energy source gone, the entire medal had completely lost its supernatural power.

A top-tier healing item was reduced to an ordinary medal.

However, Su Xiu showed no disappointment on his face.

His calm demeanor suggested he had already anticipated this.

That was right!

This was all part of his plan! Or rather, a portion of it!

"The true authorship..."

"...has only just begun!!"

Su Xiu sighed softly in his mind.

With a flip of his right hand, he activated the ability of Dimensional Sealing.

Invisible runes flowed as the power of restraint tightened continuously. Wisps of white smoke were extracted from the medal, transforming into bizarrely shaped smoke monsters that kept gathering toward Su Xiu's hand.

On the editor's display...

...they shared a common name.

[divine toxicity]

Indeed, the healing medal was merely a vessel.

Used to extract the toxicity left behind by the Spacetime Worm, as well as... the death aura emitted by the victims.

The former!

Originating from divine creatures and tainted with divine radiance, it was an extension of the Spacetime Worm's power—a bona fide divine material.

The latter!

It was the death aura radiated outward by the entire city of Xijing during the process of the natural disaster's erosion.

Such a material could only appear when a vast number of lives perished in a short time. For undead-type creatures, it was a supreme item, and for Su Xiu, it was also a rare sequence vessel.

"Death aura for a hundred thousand people... should barely be enough, right?"

Su Xiu murmured under his breath.

The hesitation in his heart vanished in a flash.

It quickly turned into firm resolve.

A massive amount of Emotion Points was poured into the creation, burning like invisible flames.

Using the mottled silver medal as a base...

...he began pouring materials into it.

[divine toxicity]

[Death Aura of a Hundred Thousand]

[Pathological Knowledge]

[Medical Kit]

[...]

The raging flames engulfed all these materials, turning them into a pitch-black liquid that squirmed on the document as if it possessed life.

Having prepared long ago, Su Xiu quickly raised his pen, guiding the direction in which the text squirmed.

"He was a martyr who sacrificed himself for medicine..."

"He dedicated his entire life to solving epidemics, healing a mad world, and expelling sickness from the world..."

"Wandering beyond the boundary between life and death, possessing medical skills beyond imagination..."

"Legend has it that he is also the messenger of the Three Brothers of Death, following the revered deity Jiemie who covers his face with metal and stone and rules over calamity. He is an apostle under His command, symbolizing the plague and disease disaster among the calamities..."

The smooth writing of the pen tip gradually grew sluggish.

In the end, colorless flames even flared up, vast and endless, as if it were the beginning of all things.

"Primordial Fire?"

Su Xiu's pupils contracted, and he quickly shifted his pen stroke.

Before the wisp of flame could truly take shape, he hastily ended the creation, forcibly interrupting it.

Boom!

The flames, having lost their target...

...only then slowly vanished from the void.

That fleeting glimpse of power made even the experienced Su Xiu tighten his heart.

"As expected..."

"...is it still too forced?"

Su Xiu shook his head, though he couldn't really be called disappointed.

After all, the essence of that existence was unimaginably high.

Even the seemingly arrogant and domineering Spacetime Worm would probably not even qualify as a stinkbug if it appeared before Them.

Don't feel aggrieved!

One must realize that even the Red King—who existed only in Su Xiu's proposal concept as a rebel of the old era against the new era—that wild supreme divinity was viewed as nothing more than a tiny insect before those three...

They were bona fide supreme divinities!

And even at that level, They remained renowned entities.

Even when authoring sequence anomalies...

...deliberately adding Their legends to empower it was not something that could be written casually.

The fortunate thing amidst misfortune was...

...that although the authorship was halted halfway by Su Xiu...

...the text squirming on the white paper barely took shape.

Which meant...

...this creation had not failed!

[006 Ghost Doctor]

[Rank: Unknown]

[Ability: Healing]

[A healer wandering between life and death, constantly accompanied by epidemics, possessing medical skills that can be called uncanny. Legend says he is the messenger of the Three Brothers of Death, and his arrival symbolizes the disaster of disease and plague under the revered deity Jiemie...]

[Accompanied by epidemics, spending his entire life preventing the arrival of plagues...]

[Flaw: Weak Individual]

[Item Rating: Unknown]

[Current Status: Deploying]

[...]

"Phew!"

"Not too bad."

Looking at the text emerging on the document...

...Su Xiu nodded slightly.

Although the fresh-out-of-the-oven 006 only possessed healing characteristics, the most important element—the [Three Brothers of Death]—had already been recognized by the document as one of the factors. That was enough!

Step by step, continuing to develop...

...he would sooner or later erase the word "legend".

Making 006 truly be established as His messenger, symbolizing the disease and plague disaster among the Three Calamities!

In the future, if there was an opportunity...

...he might even use 006 as an anchor to trace back upward and write into existence those supreme divinities ruling over death!

With Their grand power, even if placed in the final war of his previous life where divinity ran rampant and big bosses took the stage one after another...

...They would still be indisputable powerhouses!

In Su Xiu's calm gaze, a rare excitement welled up.

However, soon enough, someone immersed in a grand blueprint...

...was startled awake by an outside voice.

"Hey~"

"Sir! Are you my Creator?"

Wearing a bird beak mask, with a floating black robe, standing at 1.9 meters tall but lean in build, resembling a medieval Bird-beak Doctor with a mottled medal hanging on his chest, a man appeared before Su Xiu's eyes.

Seeing Su Xiu turn his gaze toward him, 006 hastily spoke up, "You bear the aura of plague on you. Do you need me to help treat you?"

006 pulled out his unique surgical tools from the medical kit he was carrying.

A hammer in his left hand, a sickle in his right. "I guarantee I am a top-tier physician—in the name of nobility!"

006 pointed at the medal on his chest, declaring solemnly.

"..."

The bizarre style made even the well-experienced Su Xiu twitch his lips uncontrollably.

Treat him with those things?

As long as he hadn't lost his mind, there was no way he'd agree!

If 006 had swore in the name of a physician, he might have barely considered it; what on earth was "in the name of nobility"?!

*Stare—*

Under Su Xiu's cold gaze...

...006 finally lowered his head. Even through a mask, one could strangely perceive a bashful expression on his bird beak mask.

"Heheh~"

"Actually, Creator, there are almost no traces of plague on you at all!"

"Listen to me, this is truly a miracle. If you let me treat you, I might be able to uncover the truth behind the plague, save this world about to be destroyed, and offer health to the world..."

Ignoring a certain someone's endless blabbering...

...Su Xiu felt it was better to focus his energy on serious business.

Ghost Doctor?

He looked completely unreliable!

Finding an opportunity to throw him out to harvest Emotion Points would be enough.

This guy couldn't even explain clearly what the plague was.

Only if he had water in his brain would he use himself as material and act as 006's lab rat.

Compared to this, he had more important things to do.

Among the gains this time, it wasn't just [divine toxicity] and [death aura].

There was also the gratitude of millions of citizens in Xijing...

...toward the lifeform inside the medal who generously went to his death to save them from danger.

Memorial services were held continuously across the city one after another.

This! Was a two-way journey.

Countless emotions condensed, transforming into the purest and most simple faith.

[High-Grade - Faith Crystal]

Unfolding the blank paper, he reached out and took hold of the pen.

Looking at the seventeen-sided pure white crystal before him, Su Xiu felt that certain sequences could now be attempted to be authored.
