Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 547 Plans On Both Sides



"With the right resources, I could advance in less than two hours and get enough to find and perhaps rescue your friend. The only downside to this alternative is that I haven't gathered any resources yet, and even if we found something, you'd have to protect me until I finished my advancement." Layla finished her speech and gave Bella the only viable options for her.

Bella listened to everything and silently thought about what to do. She didn't want to give up on her companion because if it hadn't been for the two people who had helped her earlier, she would be dead now.

But she knew that if she insisted on going after the last remaining one, she would have to do it alone since Layla would certainly not go with her under the current circumstances.

So it was up to her to find Vicente and get his help or wait for Layla to advance in level.

She didn't know if she could convince Vicente to save her friend. What would he gain by risking himself for her? But Layla seemed determined to do it as long as she advanced.

"What kind of resources do you need to move forward? I collected some medicinal herbs, pills, and potions while exploring the city. I also found two dozen spatial rings that must have resources inside them. Perhaps one of them will have something compatible for you." She said as she clenched her fists, feeling that this woman wouldn't act against her because she was talking about her 'riches.'

Layla looked into Bella's green eyes and said. "I have an elemental affinity for the elements of wind and lightning. Any 3rd-grade resource with a focus on one of those two elements will be able to help me."

"I think I have something like that." Bella didn't mind giving Layla something like that since it would be less than 10% of what she had collected.

She had collected everything she could on her way through this city. Even things she couldn't use, she had taken because she would be able to sell them for many coins.

She didn't have an elemental affinity similar to Layla's, so she didn't give up anything she could use in the short term to strengthen herself.

Layla received a potion and a root from Bella's hands.

Bella said. "This root has strong properties of the lightning element. But it must also contain a strong poisonous effect, considering the type of terrain it was in. You'll need to take this potion along with the root to absorb only the positive from this resource."

Layla examined the two items and came to the same conclusion as Bella, realizing that the green-haired woman was sincere.

"This will really work." She muttered with a smile on her face.

The magical resources in Realm of Polaris were not so different from the remedies on Earth. On Vicente's previous planet, sometimes a medicine would be used to treat a problem in one organ, but the medicine that solved that problem would end up endangering other body parts. In order to protect another part of the body from the medicine, the patient would take other drugs in conjunction with the main one to treat their case.

Hardly anyone would come out of something like this completely unscathed if their problems were more serious. Still, it worked more positively than negatively.

In Polaris Realm, it was even more effective. Magical resources could cause good and evil at the same time, but by using the right accessory resources, one could neutralize all or almost all of the collateral damage.

"How long will it take you to get ahead with this root?" Bella asked as she looked back through the cracks in the door next to them.

Layla thought for a moment before answering. "I don't know. At least two hours. If this root were pure, it would only take two hours. But since it has elements that would harm me, and I'm using this potion to control that negative part, the whole process will take longer.

Anyway, I don't think we'll need much more than three hours. I need you to protect me during that period. I'll check on your friend and rescue him if he's still alive after that.

At Layla's current level, she could evade and dodge the attacks of the 4th stage beings in this city. Bella had witnessed this in the past few minutes and knew that when this woman became faster, Layla would be able to challenge the strongest beings in The Skull City.

She believed the gray-haired woman and soon took the position of observing this area while Layla ingested these two resources.

Thus, Layla's first few minutes of cultivation passed quietly while Bella nervously observed the surroundings of the underground place where they were.

The place became increasingly crowded with undead, some carrying valuable resources to the same place.

Meanwhile, most zombies, ghosts, and liches didn't care about finding those two or even Vicente. They were just carrying out their orders to bring the city's valuable resources to the place where the strongest were already preparing to receive Vicente.

...

At the deepest point of The Skull City's underground, the 4th stage ghost was inside a large cocoon similar to the one Torne had left in Vicente's consciousness space for a while.

Meanwhile, the 4th stage lich was sitting on one of the two thrones in a large crypt where there were many chains running from the ceiling to the walls and passageways of the area, skulls of beings of different races in various sculptures, and also a small lake of magma.

There, some undead were profiled as worshippers of some kind of taboo practice, while others simply left valuable resources in an area designated by the strongest lich.

Meanwhile, the body of a living man was nailed to a cross, his blood dripping and pooling in a clay basin beneath his feet, where the mightiest beings would occasionally approach and take a few sips.

'How are our plans going?' The one inside the cocoon near one of the thrones sent its thoughts to the Sovereign on the other side of the crypt.

That skeleton said. "If the enemy wants riches, he will come to us sooner or later. When he does, we'll finish him off here!"

'Perfect! Don't hesitate to let the black flames of corruption consume this place! Even though he has hidden his negative affinity from us, he won't be able to resist our evil flames!'

The skeleton nodded in agreement.

The evil flames were an ancient essence of black fire that could easily kill Dark Path magicians. These flames could burn the elements associated with darkness and only extinguish themselves when those elements were completely out of their reach.

Using such a thing would be dangerous for everyone there, but those two Sovereigns were willing to do it to bring Vicente down and have the chance to enjoy his blood and consume his soul!
