Chapter 51: Attribute Points
Having gotten the information from Lattimore, Sahudin excitedly came over to Li Ang to boast about his achievement.
It turns out that Lattimore's trip was on the orders of Duke Caroch, and he had made two preparations.
If Leon had trusted Tester as Foreign Minister and allowed Tester to maintain the peace talks with the foreign powers, Lattimore and his personal guards would not have taken action.
If Li Ang does not trust Tester and insists on continuing to fight the alien race to the death, the personal guard will take action and, at the right time, detonate the corruption infection to cause as much chaos and impact as possible in the capital!
As for Li Ang's attitude towards foreigners, Duke Kaloch had many spies in the Kingdom of Grant. The provincial governors secretly intercepted supplies and gold coins and refused to distribute them to foreigners, which aroused Kaloch's vigilance.
Like Tester, Kalocci was a pro-surrender faction and did not want Leon to fall out with the alien race.
To have a backup plan, Carlos deliberately sent his capable assistant, Lattimore, to the scene.
Clearly, when Lattimore saw Steward Mike come to arrest Carloch, he acted decisively!
The second plan was implemented!
In Kalocci's view, Lattimore and his men could at least cause great damage to the capital!
At that time, even if Li Ang wanted to organize a war, he wouldn't have the confidence to do so!
Unfortunately, after all his calculations, Kaloci still underestimated Li Ang.
Lattimore's forces only brought a little over a thousand Corruptors, which is not a large number.
Sahudin explained, "Your Majesty, the Bloodskull Cult's corruption comes at a high price! It's not something that can be used lightly! Even Duke Kaloch, with his years of experience in the Southern Territory, would find it very difficult to repeat this several times!"
"This time, according to Lattimore, it's a huge failure! The fact that this group was able to successfully receive the blessing of the [God of Blood and Skull] and even carry that contagious virus took Duke Kaloch ten years of his effort and at least two or three years' worth of taxes from the Southern Territory!"
After listening to Sahudin's words, Li Ang nodded. It seemed that the threat was much smaller.
"How can those corrupt ones be completely killed? Is burning them to ashes with kerosene the only way?"
Li Ang then asked.
"Your Majesty, I've asked Lattimore. He said that those ordinary mutated corruptors can be ignored. They will naturally die in seven days, and there's no cure. Just clean up the scene. Of course, you can also burn them to ashes with kerosene for a quick cleanup."
Sahudin's words brought a sigh of relief to everyone present.
Indeed, there is no such thing as "immortal" in this world!
Corruptors also need energy, and when their energy is depleted, they will naturally die!
"It seems that if we don't fight these corruptors and just drag them out for a week, they'll naturally die!"
Manager Mike nodded thoughtfully.
Leon then asked, "So, what about Lattimore?"
"How do we take this guy down?"
Now that most of the secrets have been revealed, there's no point in keeping Lattimore around!
"Your Majesty, Lattimore is an enhanced version of the Corruptor. He can retain his self-awareness and survive for up to 30 days! If he dies of natural causes, it will be after 30 days!"
"Besides, this guy's skin is so thick; it'll probably take him seven or eight days to burn it!"
"Sahudin said slowly."
"Perhaps, trying this might work!"
Li Ang suddenly remembered the "Corrupted Feast Spore Vessel" that he had purified!
Since the "Corrupted Feast Vessel" has the special effect of "100 times poison resistance," which helped me overcome the difficulties, perhaps I can quickly kill these corrupted beings without having to resort to troublesome methods like fire attacks.
With these thoughts in mind, Li Ang began to take action.
Picking up the "Corruption Feast Vessel," Li Ang immediately began "headshotting" these corrupted beings!
It's simple: a "vessel and a little force"—that's how easily and effortlessly the skulls of the corrupters were smashed to pieces!
After killing the first corrupted being, Leon suddenly sensed that the "vessel" was growing stronger:
Furthermore, thanks to the Yellow Weasel System, Li Ang also heard the corresponding data notification: "[Corruption Feast Vessel] has devoured the essence of a Corruptor, attribute points +1!"
Attribute points?
"interesting?"
Li Ang seemed to see hope for upgrading the Rotten Feast Sprout Vessel.
It is currently a Tier 7 Evil Relic. As long as enough attribute points are accumulated, it is not impossible to upgrade it.
With that in mind, Li Ang began to attack the more than one thousand corrupted beings in turn!
One "vessel" at a time, smashing the heads of these corruptors to pieces.
With each death of an ordinary corruptor, Li Ang would receive a notification sound.
The [Rotten Feast Spore Vessel] directly absorbed over a thousand attribute points!
Lattimore was taken aback when he witnessed firsthand how powerful Leon was.
Normally, these corrupt individuals are practically unkillable unless their time comes!
However, the cup and dish that Li Ang was holding was really too strange!
Lattimore growled in a low voice, "What is that thing? It can actually sever the corrupting power of the [Bloodskull God]?"
Leon didn't value Lattimore, who was worthless and destined to die, at all.
"Go to hell, you bastard!"
Li Ang raised the [Corrosive Feast Vessel] and smashed Lattimore's head to pieces!
The [Rotten Feast Spore Vessel] possesses a unique and wondrous power, extinguishing the life force of this Lattimore almost instantly!
All corruption returns to nothingness!
According to the plan, Lattimore was supposed to die naturally in 30 days, but now he's suddenly gone!
The body has fallen, and can never be brought back to life!
Of course, Lattimore was the most powerful corruptor, and killing him allowed the [Corruption Feast Vessel] to absorb 500 attribute points!
"Hmm, I've already accumulated over 1500 attribute points!"
Looking at the progress bar in the system, as long as the attribute value accumulates to 2000 points, the [Rotten Feast Spore Vessel] can be upgraded.
"Hey! If only there were more Corruptors like this! Then we could just watch the vessel upgrade!"
Li Ang couldn't help but smile.
Just then, Steward Mike's expression turned somewhat serious.
"Your Majesty, I have some bad news!"
"It is my fault! Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
Manager Mike knelt on one knee and said in shame.
"What's wrong, Mike? What's the matter?"
Li Ang asked.
"Your Majesty, Foreign Minister Tester is missing! This Tester, we don't know where he's gone! We can't find him!"
"He must have escaped during the chaos!"
Manager Mike reports.
Li Ang frowned slightly: "He escaped? Tester, that guy really knows how to run away! Issue my order: seal off the capital immediately! Even if we have to turn it upside down, we must find him!"
