Chapter 192: Poison Scroll

Chapter 192: Poison Scroll

The world had experienced countless changes ever since Awakeneds had appeared one after another.

One of those changes was how they view the world. The world had started to become more and more complicated with each Awakened that popped up.

Various unbelievable skills from fantasies had come true, and most of them went against science, completely destroying the people’s beliefs.

From putting their attention to finding jobs and work their way to the top, people who had suddenly become an Awakened now only have a thirst for power within themselves.

Their life had completely turned around, and they were now focused on improving their own strengths, everything else was secondary.

As Awakeneds kept appearing, there was no limit to what skill someone could have. This made specific skills more attractive than others. Since Awakeneds were numerous in this world, a group of them had been able to make a name for themselves.

The top Awakeneds wasn’t only limited to those who had frightening combat power. Even though the world and the Awakeneds in it would only recognize strength as the main factor for being an expert, non-combat Awakeneds could also reach the top in their own ways.

Non-combat Awakeneds usually consist of Awakeneds that could support others from behind. There were a large number of them, and no one would dare to look down on them. Even if they didn’t have any combat capabilities, it is possible that their contribution could still be higher than some powerful Awakeneds.

The world wasn’t only ruled by swords and spears. Shields should also not be ignored. Awakeneds had learned this the hard way when they have suffered from the unique and unpredictable skills of others.

Smiling Death was an example of a non-combat Awakened. While his fighting capability was indeed weak, his defense ability was top notch among other skills. What’s the point of a powerful Elemental Skill user if it can’t even damage its opponent.

Seeing the incredible potential of Defensive Skill users, a lot of organizations kept their eyes open for skillful ones and tried many ways to pull them to their sides. Some had succeeded, and some don’t, but that wasn’t the end of it.

Defensive Skills were only one of the many non-combat skills that were highly valued by others. If one were to have more knowledge about the world, they would quickly realize that the value of Defensive Skills was only in the middle compared to Unique Skills.

It was common knowledge that Unique Skills were highly valuable, and most Awakeneds who have them would someday be a powerful Awakened and famous throughout the world. Naturally, some would also be unlucky and only receive useless skills that don’t have much use. Those people can only be contented with their status as an Awakened.

However, for the Awakeneds who had been fortunate enough to have gotten skills that were related to Potion-Making and Crafting Skills, for these Awakeneds, as long as they release their products, Awakeneds, no matter how influential, would flock on their doors.

This only applies to those skillful Awakeneds who could show impressive products that will be tempting enough to attract others.

For some, skills related to Crafting Skills were one of the best ones to have. Not only it would push their position straight to the top, but it would also be easy to get the help of a lot of Awakeneds.

The line of Awakeneds they would receive in their doorsteps would be never-ending as Awakeneds know how useful potions are, especially if the effects were unique and amazing. The amount of Awakeneds who wish to curry some favors would be innumerable. Only an idiot would choose to offend them.

That wasn’t the only thing. The number of Awakeneds who had those kinds of skills was extremely few. This was not only attributed to the skills being rare among Awakeneds. The auction had also been the cause of it.

Since there was an auction, Awakeneds could just sell their goods without the need to expose their identities. Hence, even when numerous products were being sold, most of their makers had still remained hidden.

This wasn’t new. Awakeneds, usually the non-combat ones who have incredibly useful skills, would rather remain anonymous than risk being the target of people with evil intentions.

Most of them had seen what happened to others who didn’t choose to side themselves with powerful forces. Those powerful forces will do anything and would even resort to malicious schemes to get their hands on the gold mine of a skill.

But when things don’t go their way, their retaliation will be swift and merciless, removing those people who declined from the world, cutting off the chances of them being poached by their enemies.

One can say that the auction had saved most of the Craftsman and Potion Makers. Now, they could benefit greatly from their skills and also make a name for themselves by leaving their insignia on their products.

In this way, not only would people know about them, but they could also widen their influence to a large number of people. As for proving the authenticity of it, there was simply no need to as with their unique marks; no one would be able to imitate it.

Adding the fact that they only sold their products in the auction, which would always verify and guarantee that their products were real, no one would dare say that they were tricked.

Due to this, many Awakeneds have benefited from a wide range of products available. Though they were a little expensive, their effects were enough for Awakeneds to unhesitantly buy it.

Max had also been aware of it for quite a while now, but he only chose to look and not buy anything so far. Currently, those items had no use for him, and as for Life-Saving Potions, with their Reverse Time Skill, there was no need for that.

However, for poison cures, antidotes had been a rare potion probably from its low demand, not a lot had bothered to spend time to make it.

On the other hand, Chief Li had stacks of those items stored in their base. Since their Special Affairs Department was formed to deal with Awakeneds, several items had been provided to them.

Fortunately, Chief Li had brought one of their treasured items today. Against White Eye, naturally, they have done their preparations.

However, Chief Li did not expect that he would use the item today. No matter how he thought about it, it was a waste using it here. But they were left with nothing else, and this was the only to defeat White Eye before he decides to make his way into cities. When that time comes, it will be too late.

Looking at the scroll in his hand, Chief Li showed a reluctant expression. One could see how much he valued the item.

The item was not the most powerful when it comes to dealing with other Awakeneds, but for White Eye, it was incredibly useful.

With the item, White Eye won’t be able to do anything but to receive all the damage to himself. It could be said to be one of the things he feared the most.
