Chapter 161: Diagonal Alley and Knockturn Alley (First Update)

  A hand extended from under the cloak, Lin Xiao used his own fingers to gently tap a few specific bricks on the wall.

  Lin Xiao withdrew his arm after striking the wall five times, and at this moment, he saw that the originally ordinary bricks on the wall in front of him suddenly moved automatically. They moved separately, gradually forming a door.

  In less than a minute, the original wall position had completely transformed into an archway.

  "Corner alley, haha." Lin Xiao chuckled a few times, looking at the street in front of her that seemed like it was from ancient times, and couldn't help but curiously examine the things set up on both sides of the street.

  Crooked houses, men and women wizards wearing wizard cloaks everywhere, those spirited cat owls in the window, all sorts of strange things are available.

  "What a wonderful alley!" Lin Xiao couldn't help but exclaim in his heart at that time.

  However, he didn't come to the corner alley today. His destination was another alley called Fan Dao Xiang. The crowded crowd couldn't slow down Lin Xiao's pace. The wizards here seemed to be unwilling to have any physical contact with Lin Xiao in this outfit. When they saw Lin Xiao coming over, they all dodged out of the way.

  This made Lin Yan's pace faster and faster, and finally, after half an hour, he entered a relatively dark alley compared to the diagonal alley before. Through this alley, he officially entered Fan Dao Xiang, the place where the legendary black sorcerers gathered.

  Regardless of whether the rumors are true or not, after Lin Xiao arrived here, almost none of the witches he met rejected his outfit, and some even let out a few sly laughs at him, their expressions looking particularly ferocious.

  Lin Xiao came to Fan's shop, not for anything else, but to look for Mr. Bo Jin, the boss of Bojin Baoke.

  After walking for a while, Lin Xiao finally found the largest store in this alley, 'Bogin - Bok'.

  He pushed open the door with his hand. The bell above the entrance let out a crisp, ringing sound, indicating that a guest had arrived.

  Inside Bojin's shop, Mr. Bojin was lowering his head, busy with something, and didn't notice Lin Xiao entering the store.

  Lin Xiao's gaze swept over Mr. Bojin, and then he began to wander around the store on his own. This store had all sorts of strange things, and Lin Xiao even saw a crystal skull - he didn't know if it had any connection to the Mayan civilization.

  After walking around in a circle, Lin Xiao returned to the front of the counter, stretched out his hand and gently tapped on the table, making a "ding ding ding" sound.

  "Mr. Boggs?" Lin Xiao looked up at this boss of Boggs & Boggs.

  Mr. Bogin didn't even lift his head. One hand held a quill pen, scribbling quickly on the parchment paper.

  "If you want something, find it yourself." He responded lazily.

  Lin Xiao laughed and suddenly... he stretched out his hand, grasped Mr. Boguin's neck, and pulled him directly from behind the counter.

  "The customer is God, Mr. Bo Jin, you don't even understand this principle?" Lin Xiao coldly stared at Mr. Bo Jin, who was being choked by him with his feet kicking in the air, until he was almost out of breath. Only then did he throw him to the ground.

  Bang!

  Mr. Bogin had just landed when he quickly sprang up, his right hand somehow grasping a black magic wand, which he swung violently at Lin Xiao.

  "Cutting to the heart and scraping the bone!"

  A flash of magical light shot towards Lin Xiao like lightning, but unfortunately, Lin Xiao lightly dodged to the side and the magic directly flew past his body and hit a metal can behind him.

  "Drilling into one's heart, I wonder what other tricks Mr. Bo Jin has up his sleeve?" Lin Xiao smiled as he looked at the opponent, not making any move to stop him from continuing his spell.

  Mr. Bogin's wrinkled face showed a hint of indignation, and it was clear that Lin Xiao's disregard had thoroughly ignited the anger in his heart.

  Being able to open a store in a place like Fan Dao Xiang and on such a large scale also proves that Mr. Bo Jin's strength is not bad, Lin Xiao had just looked at his information when he first came in, his combat power was not as good as that of Frye, but it had reached 115.

  But this bit of combat power is indeed not worth a laugh in his eyes.

  "My soul has escaped!"

  A soul-stealing curse shot out once again from Mr. Boguin's wand tip and fiercely struck Lin Xiao in front of him.

  This time Lin Xiao didn't dodge at all and just stood still waiting for the magic to hit him.

  "You're not hiding?" Seeing Lin Xiao being so arrogant, Mr. Bojin's face also revealed a victorious smile, and he was already thinking about how to manipulate Lin Xiao into doing something terrible later.

  "Maybe it's not bad if he becomes a living model for me." He thought with satisfaction.

  Whoosh!

  The magic light beam traversed the distance of space and instantly hit Lin Xiao's body. In an instant, Lin Xiao could clearly feel a surge of energy filled with evil intentions rushing directly to his brain along his own body.

  But just as it was about to reach his brain, it seemed to encounter some kind of obstruction, and no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't break through this layer of obstruction, and finally dissipated in vain.

  "It's really useful." Lin Xiao's face under the mask couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile, he just wanted to try out if the helmet brought from the X-Men world could really withstand the Soul Reaper Curse, a malicious curse specifically targeting the soul.

  If possible, that would be best. If not, then Bojin's combat power is so low that his Soul-Seizing Curse can't cause much harm to Lin Xiao, at most it will only make him feel mentally dizzy and he won't lose control of his body.

  Mr. Bojin, who was previously full of joy, is now in a completely opposite mood from Lin Xiao's good mood.

  He originally saw Lin Xiao take his soul-stealing curse head-on without flinching, and he was secretly pleased with himself, silently scolding Lin Xiao for being arrogant. However, now he clearly felt that his magic had no effect, and this soul-stealing curse did not have any impact on Lin Xiao's body.

  What does this mean?

  For an old wizard like him, if he doesn't even know this, then he has really lived in vain for so many years.

  "Damn it, I knew I shouldn't have done that!" Mr. Bogin is now regretful to the point of death, his whole body stiffened in this pose, not knowing what to do to let the other person pass by safely.

  Just then, Lin Xiao patted his cloak and spoke up first.

  "Mr. Bogin, it seems you've realized some of the issues, so now can I state my purpose?" Lin Xiao said with a smile, looking at Mr. Bogin's stiff expression across from him.

  Mr. Bogin didn't dare say no, he hastily nodded his head, and the expression on his face changed instantly to a respectful one, like turning pages of a book.

  "Sir, just say it, as long as it's something that can be done by Boguang, I'll definitely get it done for you!" He patted his chest and guaranteed loudly.

  Lin Xiao was very satisfied with the effect he had created, nodded and said: "I need some materials for refining compound decoctions, I don't know if Mr. Bojin has any stock here?"

  "Compound decoction!" Mr. Bojin was taken aback, and immediately nodded hastily, quickly taking three steps in one stride, soon bringing Lin Xiao a large pile of strange and peculiar things.

  Lin Xiao was not tired of using the detection technique to check one by one, after all, he didn't understand these medicinal materials in the wizard world at all. He used the detection technique to check while comparing with the prescription of the compound potion.

  About a minute later, Lin Xiao finally cleaned up this pile of things. Of course, he couldn't directly put them into the system space, because that would cost money. He borrowed a spatial bag from Bo Jin and hastily stuffed all these things inside.

  Watching Lin Xiao put large bundles of herbs into his spatial bag, Mr. Bojin's heart was almost bleeding.

  That's the best space bag in his store, those are all the precious medicines in his store!

  "Never mind, as long as I can keep my life safe, all these can be earned again!" Mr. Bogin comforted himself in his heart.

  As for expecting Lin Xiao to pay, he hadn't even thought of that. If the other party was willing to pay, would they have come in and argued with him right away? As long as they paid, what wouldn't they be willing to sell?

  Lin Xiao waited until he had packed all the medicinal herbs into the spatial bag, then tied it to his waist before lifting his head to look at Mr. Boguin in front of him.

  "Mr. Bogin, would you mind introducing me to some of the interesting items in your store? I'm sure Mr. Bogin wouldn't be unwilling, right?" Lin Xiao smiled at him, his gaze making Bogin feel a chill run down his spine.

  He hastily nodded and immediately took out some small things to introduce to Lin Xiao.

  An hour later, Lin Xiao left Boguin-Bogu with a satisfied heart, leaving Mr. Boguin alone in the store that had emptied out quite a bit, staring blankly with a bitter face.

  ……

  For the next few days, Lin Xiao only stayed in the Broken Pot Bar, although this bar was a bit old-fashioned, but it was closest to the alley, and he had been trying to brew compound potions recently, so he didn't return to his house in Xiaohuijin District, but chose to stay here.

  For several days, Lin Xiao had tried the top-grade ginseng he had extorted from Mr. Bo Jin dozens of times, and after repeated research, he finally came up with a bottle of compound decoction in front of him. As for the medicinal materials extorted from Mr. Bo Jin, they had long been consumed by him.

  He picked up the silver wine jug, which was only the size of a palm on the table. It was actually a magical artifact. Although it looked small, its internal space was comparable to a swimming pool. This was also something he had snatched from Mr. Bogin.

  At this moment, the gourd contained a large amount of compound medicine that he had been refining over the past few days. The entire interior space of the gourd was divided into ten regions by him, each containing a large amount of compound medicine. They were separated because the targets of these ten compound medicines were different.
