1073: Su Liang's Appetite

"Roar!!"

At the moment the dazzling white light burst forth, the orc shrouded in Holy Light ahead suddenly let out a hysterical roar!

And in that instant.

Many people in Li Village could clearly see that the moment the huge Dark Creature orc ahead was enveloped in light, white smoke immediately rose from its entire body!

Then, fiery flames directly began to burn from its surface!

This beam of light, no different from a Holy Sword, completely acted upon the Dark Creature ahead.

"Boom!"

The burning flames eventually burst forth like an explosion.

The orc ahead, in its roaring struggle, directly turned into a pile of ashes!

Even the dozen or so orcs behind, unable to dodge in time, were enveloped by the Holy Light and burned to ashes!

Some Dark Creatures touched by this light fled into the deep Black World with urgent roars!

Looking down from the sky.

At this moment, the area where Li Village was located, which was originally a dead silent area of pitch blackness, now seemed to have welcomed a patch of daylight!

After everything subsided.

Looking at the Dark Creatures that had turned into ashes, everyone in Li Village looked in one direction with belated realization.

That was the Village Chief's location.

At this moment, Li Changkong was holding an arm-thick cylindrical object in his hand.

The front end of the object was emitting a dazzling light that made it impossible to look at directly.

This light was the real culprit that killed those Dark Creatures!

"Changkong, this is?!" Li Bo's voice trembled slightly due to his agitation.

"This is..." Li Changkong paused, then, according to the item name on the System panel, uttered a product name that seemed a bit strange to him: "This is a flashlight."

"The light it emits can kill Dark Creatures!"

Although he explained it this way, Li Changkong's heart was filled with the same shock as the villagers.

Originally.

He thought that these items from the System would most likely only have the effect of dispelling Dark Creatures.

In terms of effectiveness, it would be enough if they could reach the level of the previous Primary Spirit Lamp.

Unexpectedly.

What the System directly gave him was simply a world-destroying weapon!

If everyone in the Village had one, the Darkness that had been hanging over their heads all this time would have no threat whatsoever!

...

"Village Chief, when did our Village get such a terrifying thing?! This is simply too cool!"

Li Man and the other villagers looked at the flashlight in Li Changkong's hand.

Their voices gradually became noisy, filled with excitement and intense happiness.

At the same time, the tense nerves of everyone gradually relaxed during this period.

Listening to their words, Li Changkong smiled silently.

The System did not disappoint him after all.

"Buzz buzz~"

Just as Li Changkong was thinking this, the flashlight in his hand dimmed with a sound of current, and then completely went out.

This made A Man freeze for a moment, then look at the flashlight in his hand, and a pop-up window appeared in front of him.

[Low battery, please charge]

Looking at this prompt, Li Changkong looked at the button on the flashlight with a vague understanding.

This was the maximum power output, so the battery was depleted in just over ten seconds.

"Ding~ Host, do you want to consume one unit of Dark Energy to learn the basic knowledge of electricity and electrical appliances?"

The System's voice appeared in his ear at the appropriate time.

"Basic knowledge about these things? If I learn it, it will indeed be much clearer than it is now, but... how do I obtain this one unit of Dark Energy?" Li Changkong looked at the required currency and felt a bit troubled.

In fact.

In the System's electrical appliance mall, except for these few limited-time event items that can be purchased with gold and silver coins, all the others require Dark Energy.

"Ding~ Host, after killing Dark Creatures, there is a probability of obtaining Dark Energy from the remnants of the Dark Creatures." Ye Tian reminded him in time.

Hearing this, Li Changkong suddenly understood.

He got up and walked towards the area where the dead Dark Creature orc was located.

Just now, the Holy Light from the flashlight had burned this Dark Creature into nothing but a pile of ashes...

Rummaging through the ashes, Li Changkong actually found a piece of dark black bone.

Within it, surging Dark Energy seemed to be a condensed version of the vast Black World outside!

Just touching it with his palm made Li Changkong feel a chill throughout his body!

This thing was actually quite common on the Magic Continent.

People generally called it black crystal.

Because it contained detestable Dark Energy, it had basically no other development value except for attracting Dark Monsters.

During the summer, if it was unbearably hot, the villagers would even wear this thing on their bodies as a cooling item.

However, because the energy in the black crystal itself originated from Darkness, this thing would completely melt and return to Darkness after only a few nights.

Therefore, it could only be picked up when a monster had just died.

And the monster's strength needed to reach a certain level to produce black crystal.

"Ding~ Congratulations Host, you have obtained one unit of Dark Energy." The moment the System's voice appeared, Li Changkong felt that the Dark Energy in the black crystal in his hand was directly swallowed up!

And on his System panel, in the electrical appliance mall, one unit of currency also appeared.

"System, purchase basic knowledge related to electricity and electrical appliances." Li Changkong decisively used this unit of Dark Energy.

The moment he finished speaking, knowledge poured into Li Changkong's mind like a sudden enlightenment!

"So... is this the true use of electricity?" After a long while, when Li Changkong opened his eyes again, his emotions were much more turbulent and surging than before!

...

"Village Chief, what should we do next?" Li Man led the nine Apprentice Knights behind him and asked Li Changkong.

This question was accompanied by the gazes of the other villagers fixed on him.

"Next... we will transform Li Village together!" After Li Changkong finished speaking, he took out several books from his body.

These were books on basic electricity knowledge that he purchased from the System's electrical appliance mall.

According to the System's introduction, only the people of Li Village could understand and learn from these books!

...

Busen City.

With the arrival and continuation of the Black World, Busen City's Holy Light Array was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And outside the Holy Light City, in a pitch-black night.

Who knows how many powerful and strange Dark Creatures, like Ghosts, were staring intently at Busen City, which had a population of two million, waiting for the feast to arrive!

Busen City Lord's Mansion.

The acting City Lord, along with many powerful Magicians behind him, stood on the city wall, looking at the Darkness ahead with worried faces.

"Didn't the Holy Light Department say they had developed a better item to dispel Darkness? They said it was a potion that enhances spiritual lamps, and they already have samples, so why is there no movement yet?" Standing at the forefront of the city wall, a White-Haired Old Man wearing a wide golden magic robe and holding a dark gold magic staff, spoke with some dissatisfaction in his voice.

"I asked a while ago, and the Holy Light Department's answer was ambiguous."

"And this department even had a split today!"

"The cause seems to be because of the young man who brought out the spiritual lamp enhancement potion. His name is Su Liang, he's an extraordinary person, and he seems to have made some excessive demands. The two Elders of the Holy Light Department, one side supports Su Liang and the other does not. Now the Holy Light Department is divided into two factions with the two Elders as their leaders." A person behind answered unhurriedly.

"Su Liang?" The Old Man in front was angry, and the golden magic staff in his hand struck the ground heavily. After a dull sound, a heavy voice also followed: "The Holy Light Department is splitting at such a critical moment, just because of an extraordinary person?!"

After saying this, the acting City Lord, Maurice, did not forget about the potion: "Then now, which part of the Holy Light Department holds the spiritual lamp enhancement potion?"

After the Old Man asked this question.

A Knight wearing heavy armor and a greatsword at his waist quickly arrived from behind: "Lord Maurice, Elder Westley of the Holy Light Department and Su Liang want to see you."

"Westley?" Hearing this, the acting City Lord frowned.

"Westley is the faction that controls the spiritual lamp enhancement potion." A subordinate behind added.

This also made the Old Man understand a little.

After a moment.

In a brightly lit hall, the acting City Lord, Maurice, met Westley and the Genius who invented the potion, Su Liang, who had come to see him.

"Westley, you have also seen the situation in the city now. Since your Holy Light Department released the news before that you have a way to deal with this Darkness, it is time to act."

After Maurice arrived, he did not waste any pleasantries and went straight to the point.

There was even some dissatisfaction in his tone.

And directly in front of him, the Old Woman with white hair and a slightly hunched back was Westley.

After hearing Maurice's words, she turned to look at Su Liang beside her: "Lord Maurice, I have now handed over all my authority to my beloved ""Tu""."

"Regarding how to use the spiritual lamp enhancement potion, and the future Leader of the Holy Light Department, in my opinion, he is the most suitable candidate."

The Old Woman's voice carried a sense of pride and satisfaction.

Her words also successfully drew the acting City Lord Maurice's gaze to Su Liang.

"Greetings, acting City Lord." Su Liang looked at the other party and said in a calm voice.

"Westley, I'm not in the mood to joke with you. You should realize the situation we are in Busen City right now!" Maurice's gaze only lingered on Su Liang for two seconds before shifting to the Old Woman, his tone filled with strong dissatisfaction.

"City Lord, my Teacher is not joking with you. You can talk to me from now on." Su Liang took over the conversation.

After saying this, he added: "The enhancement potion is real, and I can also take out that potion to help Busen City overcome the current difficulties."

After these words spread, Maurice's gaze finally returned to Su Liang: "What do you want?"

"I don't want much, I only need Lord Maurice, you to pass on your current position and authority to me." Su Liang's words were bold, and even made the attendants behind Maurice find it absurd and ridiculous.

"What kind of unreasonable joke are you talking about?!" Maurice indeed stood up with a face full of anger.

"City Lord, don't be anxious. This is not a forceful demand, and you still have plenty of time to consider."

After speaking, Su Liang glanced out the window and said meaningfully: "However, I just don't know how much time this Darkness will give you, City Lord, to consider."

"Do you think I dare not imprison you guys and force you to hand over the enhancement potion?!" Maurice's face was filled with conspicuous anger.

In response, Su Liang shook his head slightly: "In that case, City Lord, you would be completely pushing us to the opposite side."

"If you abdicate, Busen City can still be preserved."

"If you force us, we will directly become opponents. I wonder how many days Busen City can last then?"

"We came here with the idea of cooperation."

After speaking, Su Liang got up and walked towards the outside of the main hall under the furious gazes of Maurice's side.

"Oh, by the way, if you kill all the Renault Family, we will also provide Busen City with a batch of enhancement potions that can ensure a few days of safety."

"Finally, a reminder, in this World, in the current environment, the only hope you can have is the enhancement potion I control!"

"There is no one else in the World, no other way to dispel the Darkness. If you want the people of the whole city to continue living, you can only rely on me!"

After Su Liang finished speaking these arrogant words, he walked away.

Leaving behind the people of the City Lord's Mansion in the main hall, filled with anger but unable to act!
