Actually, Su’en had already found the black scythe lying in the sewage when he was setting up the layout for the assassins who would come later.

In the midst of his surprise, he used the All-Knowing Eye to take a look at this legendary “forbidden item” and suddenly felt…

Um… how should I put it…

It’s quite troublesome.

He had heard of the name of this forbidden item before, knowing that this scythe had extremely strong killing power and could break through anything.

But no outsider knew that its curse was even more powerful.

[Nocturnal Black Scythe of Supnos]

Quality: Legendary

Description: It is indestructible and can break through anything, but be careful, as it may cut off your head in your sleep.

Curse: Using the scythe can create long-range slashes that tear through space, causing a “one slash, two halves” effect on any material whose law level is not higher than the scythe’s sharpness limit. However, within an hour, the user’s body will suffer 80% of the damage from that slash, even if the scythe is no longer with them, the blade will silently cut through space. The more frequently it is used in a short period of time, the greater the power of the slash and the shorter the backlash time.

Explanation: A super-cursed item created by ancient alchemists using the alchemical laws. These items generally have some of the effects of artifacts, but they follow the law of equivalent exchange. The more powerful the cursed item, the stronger the negative effects. They can be used as materials for advancing to higher-level professions.

(Note: Artifact – Forbidden Item – Cursed Item – Ordinary Alchemical Item)

In fact, a “forbidden item” is actually a more powerful cursed item.

Usually, their curse characteristics are uncontrollable, so most of the time, those super-cursed items are sealed to prevent the overflowing curse characteristics from affecting others or things around them.

When Su’en saw the attributes of this scythe, the first thing that came to his mind was: killing a thousand enemies, injuring oneself eight hundred times.

Clearly, it was a super powerful weapon, but with such a curse, it immediately became a “suicide bomb” that would kill both the enemy and the user.

Now that he had been living in this world for a long time, he also had some understanding of “curse characteristics”.

It seemed that because the alchemists did not have faith in deities, they relied only on their own power and the power of natural substances. Therefore, certain high-level law powers that surpassed the user’s current comprehension level could not be directly used.

Therefore, those ancient alchemists came up with the idea of using the law of equivalent exchange to forcefully activate these powerful forces.

Alchemists believe that “everything has a price,” and the use of power is no exception. The higher the level of power used, the corresponding backlash must be endured.

Thinking about it later, Su’en also felt that it made sense.

Otherwise, how could a first-level professional casually slash through space?

Even artifacts can only be used by those who have comprehended high-level laws.

So, this black scythe was also his last resort.

Unless absolutely necessary, he didn’t plan to use this thing to “gamble with his life”.

…….

Now suddenly encountering such a “lord-level” Spider Queen, unable to even move with alchemical bullets, it was already a situation where Su’en believed he would die. He didn’t think he had any means to deal with it other than the black scythe.

But there was no regret.

As long as he still had the forbidden item scythe in mind, he would eventually come to this sewer.

As long as he came, he would eventually be ambushed by this Spider Queen.

Before, he didn’t know the situation in this underground cave, and he thought that maybe he would have the ability to take the scythe when he reached the second level.

But now, even if he reached the second level, he was afraid he would only be giving his head to the Spider Queen.

Just like the second-level assassin before.

On the contrary, this time, someone helped him step on a landmine, and the timing, location, and people were just right.

Allowing him to obtain the scythe and have a chance to gamble.

……

At this moment, Su’en knew he was no match, but he decisively chose to gamble with his life.

Um… why did I say “again”?

It seems like it’s not the first time, and he didn’t feel anything wrong with it himself.

With the black scythe in hand, he infused it with dark spiritual power, and the blade instantly ignited a layer of flickering ghost fire. Su’en clearly felt a powerful force being controlled in his hand, as if he could tear through space with a light swipe of the scythe.

A sense of dominance over the world suddenly arose.

But even though he was the owner of this black scythe, the sharpness of the blade made him feel a chill in his heart, as if it was a tiger that would devour its master, and he could accidentally suffer backlash.

With the large scythe in hand, Su’en’s whole demeanor suddenly became sinister and terrifying, like a demon that had just walked out of the gates of hell. He tilted his head and looked at the scythe in his hand, licked his lips, seemingly enjoying the feeling of controlling such a powerful force.

With a weapon in hand, evil arises from the heart.

At this moment, the red eyes of Su’en, with a fierce smile on his face, stared at the Spider Queen not far away and said, “Hehe…”

The Spider Queen, who used to rule the clan, instinctively felt a deadly crisis when she was stared at by this sinister gaze.

And at this moment, Su’en suddenly pushed off the ground with his feet and rushed towards the Spider Queen!

Red light burst from the Spider Queen’s eyes, but it did not hinder his charge at all. That beautiful face instantly showed confusion, as if she was shocked why her mental control did not work on this person. Clearly, he was much weaker than the human he had just killed…

Looking at the black scythe, it gradually showed fear on its face as well.

After all, it was eerie. The Spider Queen could feel that the scythe was very dangerous and instinctively did not want to touch it. But after all, it was eerie, and it didn’t know what dangers the scythe held.

Su’en, with his red eyes, was as swift as a cheetah, reaching the distance of a hundred meters in an instant. Faced with the ghost-faced spiders that were closing in on him, he showed no fear, only a crazed desire to kill!

He was covered in cold flames that were even more intense than before, with a scythe in one hand and a firearm in the other. Charging into the spider swarm, it was as if he had entered a realm without anyone.When he was about twenty or thirty meters away from the Spider Queen, this mutant lord also sensed danger. She spat out spider silk to block in front of her, and the sharp spider spear stabbed forward. As long as the human rushed up, he would definitely be pierced with several bloody holes.

But what she didn’t expect was that suddenly, red-eyed Su’en stopped.

A smirk appeared on his face, and then he raised his hand and swung his scythe without hesitation!

In that instant, it seemed as if time had slowed down a hundred times.

The black scythe slowly fell, and the black fire on the blade made the void ripple. The blade vibrated at a high frequency, as if it had torn a crack on God’s canvas, revealing a void that made people see the nothingness of the world.

And the next second, an even stranger scene occurred.

Tens of meters away, the Spider Queen sensed danger and wanted to block with her spider spear. But suddenly, a void crack appeared near her neck. Without giving her any time to react, the crack disappeared in a flash, and a head with a shocked expression fell to the ground with a thud.

Green blood gushed out from the headless body of the Spider Queen, spraying several meters high.

The Ghost Face Spider Queen, whose defense couldn’t be broken by alchemical bullets, was easily beheaded by the black scythe.

Just one strike, only one strike.

The elite monsters and small monsters on the side were completely panicked…

Seeing their lord being killed, these Ghost Face Spiders, who were not very intelligent, lost their organization and instantly became chaotic. Their instinct for survival made them feel that this place was dangerous, that human was dangerous, they wanted to escape. After a moment of chaos, they rushed into the tunnels deep in the cave like a tide…

But a few moments later, in the vast space, except for those spiders with broken legs struggling in the pile of corpses, no intact spider was seen.

……

After using the power of the black scythe for the first time, red-eyed Su’en had a look of insatiable greed on his face.

He looked at the body of the Spider Queen, tilted his head, seemingly not satisfied.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he turned his head sharply and looked at the only other living person in this space, Rena.

Like a wolf seeing its prey, the killing intent in his eyes became even stronger.

“There’s one more…”

Red-eyed Su’en let out a strange laugh, just about to rush over, but suddenly something happened. He suddenly held his head and showed an extremely painful expression, letting out a suppressed roar like a beast.

It was a kind of frenzy as if he had finally gained freedom, but was forcibly dragged back and locked up.

Frenzy, rationality, his face alternated between red and white.

As the potion continued to take effect, waves of coldness washed over his frenzy, and rationality gradually took the upper hand.

The red light in Su’en’s eyes quickly faded, and then clarity was restored.

“Huff…huff…huff…”

Su’en was panting heavily, his chest heaving.

He was like someone who had just been fished out of the water, his back soaked with sweat.

He rubbed his slightly aching temples, his face returned to normal, as if the hysterical struggle that had just occurred on him had never happened.

“The ‘Advanced Calming Potion’ seems to be a bit forced… Next time I have to ask that mysterious pharmacist if there’s anything better.”

Muttering to himself, Su’en turned to look at the headless body of the Spider Queen not far away.

Then he looked at the still alive Miss Bait.

He finally let out a sigh of relief and muttered, “Not bad, the timing was just right. The bait wasn’t killed by that guy…”
