Han Dong didn't care about the terrifying aura emanating from Lucius's body or the blood that might seep into his skin.

They didn't care about the exorbitant price offered.

Staring at the ancient wooden box on the table, sealed with an incantation and covered with grains of sand, I could vaguely sense the aura of ' Dark Magic '.

"This is..."

Han Dong couldn't help but reach out to touch the wooden box.

Snap!

It was immediately blocked by the blood that appeared out of nowhere.

"Don't rush to touch it, this thing is quite dangerous... Since this is a transaction, we need to see the money before we can let you inspect the goods."

"Um!"

Han Dong decisively activated the "vault" function built into the wind-up watch, which displayed the 10,000 Copper Coin stored inside.

"I didn't expect you could get so much money... If I had known, I would have asked for 10,000 Copper Coin. Consider the extra as compensation for our emotional distress."

"Haha... Can I see the goods first?" Han Dong laughed awkwardly.

"Able."

Before opening the wooden crate.

Lucius bit his finger, letting streams of his own lifeblood spill onto the table.

Under his control, the blood forms an external stabilizing array to suppress the arm inside the wooden box.

Meanwhile, Senior Sister Zhen also controlled the shadowy figures in the area, and Lunze also mobilized the necromantic energy within his body, ready to assist in the suppression at any time.

Click!

When the wooden crate is opened.

A few grains of sand flew into the air, even forming a small sand vortex.

However, as the blood array was activated, the flying sand was immediately suppressed and scattered on the tabletop, where it was enveloped by blood.

Inside the wooden box was a "mummified arm wrapped in wrinkled, partially decayed white bandages".

These white bandages also seem to be a form of sealing...

"Let me briefly explain the origin of this arm."

First and foremost, it must be emphasized that this arm is absolutely fresh; it was separated from the main body only three days ago... and it also possesses a certain degree of self-awareness.

"Hmm." Han Dong nodded; he could clearly feel that his arm was 'alive'.

"My teammates and I happened to have a suitable Destiny Card and urgently needed some items from the Destiny World, so we entered the Destiny Space during the cooldown period without needing points."

The event we encountered was called "The Mummy".

This arm comes from Imhotep, the Grand Priest was sealed deep within Hamunaptra during this incident.

"This!!"

Han Dong had naturally seen this classic film before his death; it was considered one of the pinnacle works of fantasy cinema at the time.

This Ancient Egypt Grand Priest, having committed a grave crime, was punished by being ' Bug Devourment,' ultimately transforming into a mummy capable of bringing destruction and calamity to the world...

In Han Dong's view.

This movie is of a level that only Captain-level Knight could possibly encounter, yet Lucius has just broken through to the next level, actually gets to experience it.

"You killed the Grand Priest?"

"No... Our mission is not to kill him, but simply to take some important items. The constantly resurrecting high priest will continuously hinder us in the process."

Each time he drains a tomb raider dry, he will regain some of his strength.

The "Speed Change" setting of the Destiny Event lies in the moment when the Grand Priest is fully restored.

We rushed to meet the minimum requirements for clearing the game before he fully recovered and left immediately... After all, we wouldn't get any points, so a perfect clear wouldn't be very meaningful.

As long as we get what we want, that's fine.

This arm was perfectly severed by Jane when Grand Priest Imhotep had just recovered to "Stage Two".

"I want this arm."

Without hesitation, Han Dong transferred 8,000 Copper Coin directly to Lucius through the portable transfer function of the "treasury".

Click!

The wooden crate was closed, and the arm was sealed back in place.

"Happy transaction."

Although there are indeed significant conflicts between Han Dong and them.

However, after the last incident outside the city, Lucius immediately investigated Han Dong's identity in private and eventually found a person - "Mr. Black and White".

Therefore, it is not appropriate to cause trouble for Han Dong within the academy.

If Han Dong pays the money but they don't deliver the goods in this transaction... Mr. Black and White will definitely know immediately.

Besides, they wouldn't find such an arm very useful.

Eight thousand Copper Coin were more than enough for Lucius to buy some valuable materials to forge the equipment he needed to reach the knighthood level.

"Thank you again to the senior students..."

Han Dong quickly left, carrying the wooden box.

The Necromancy Apprentice Renze was furious, but dared not act rashly because Lucius was present.

"Captain, this kid completely disrupted our plans back then."

Our True Self going to get the priceless "Ghoul Medal"... but we got nothing, and almost got into trouble instead.

Lucius, however, was not Life Force at all. He said calmly, "This is our own problem... the price of underestimating someone and not being careful enough."

Lunze, don't cause any more trouble for this student after today.

I was in close contact with him just now, and he was completely unaffected by my 'evil aura'... Moreover, I could sense a rather strange energy within him, to the point that my blood couldn't penetrate it normally."

Lunze looked surprised, "How is that possible? Captain, didn't you already break through to the next level...?"

"This student of the Crow Prophet must harbor more secrets than any of us can imagine... I suspect that the last ' Old King Incident ' is directly related to him."

In short, let's pretend that nothing happened in the past.

This money will be split equally between the two of you. Use it to buy some necessary materials to deal with the [Broken Seed].

Han Dong left the tavern.

Completely forget the oppressive feeling brought by Lucius and his group.

With his arm completely focused on the wooden box, he immediately summoned a high-class carriage to return to the Mysticism Department.

Once the arm's usability is confirmed, Han Dong will undergo a transformative physical change tonight.

"It really happened... The arm of the Grand Priest Undead Priest the movie, Imhotep, who could bring great disaster to the world, was obtained in this way."

This arm corresponds to true Dark Magic originating from Ancient Egypt! It's totally worth the price... I'll pay Demps back later.

Although this arm was an 'incomplete' piece that was cut off before Imhotep fully recovered, it is perfectly adequate for my current use.

On the contrary, I still can't control a fully functional arm at all.

At the same time, the design of Imhotep's Mummy Arm, which needs continuous improvement, also briefly explains that there is still room for improvement in this arm, which can be continuously improved in the future by achieving certain conditions, and even its quality can be further increased..."

Han Dong kept his Lesser Demon Eye open the whole time, observing the surroundings of the carriage to ensure that no unexpected situations would occur on the way to the Mysticism Department.

"Most importantly... why does this arm react to my head?"
