Chapter 372

Future chapters at patreon.com/FFAddict. Additionally, I have many new works readers may be interested in. Go look! Thanks!

Boss Tang did not disappoint Abel. In less than three days, he found an opportunity to wipe out the rest of the trade alliance members in one fell swoop. Until their death, they never suspected that the first to betray them would be the seemingly dependable Boss Tang.

"Heh, you want me to walk into a trap? I'll send you to hell first!" Boss Tang's decisiveness was ruthless. 

He also raided their homes, delivering all the wealth to Abel. Seeing this level of cooperation, Abel, who had initially considered killing him after use, decided to give Boss Tang a chance. With Boss Tang stepping up, Abel happily handed over his daily tasks to him.

Suddenly finding himself trusted so much, Boss Tang was deeply touched. Every day, he dealt with the island's affairs, both big and small, feeling both pain and joy. Compared to before, his status and power had greatly increased! Now, when walking down the street, people respectfully called him Manager Tang. 

He even considered introducing his sister to Abel, almost repaying kindness with betrayal!

As more factions foolishly sought death, the flag of the Donquixote family was firmly planted, not easily removed. Additionally, Baby-5 had collected 299 'Corrupted Human Souls.' Just one more 'Furiously Angry Human Soul,' and they could activate the third form: pistol. 

It's well known that pirates rarely have good tempers; they act at the slightest provocation. However, finding a 'Furiously Angry Human Soul' wasn't easy.

At night, Abel opened the system store. It was time for the quarterly limited-time discount items to refresh.

Abel skipped over the two blue-quality junk items and bought these two instead. The effects of the Figurehead - Davy Jones were incredible. When he got a good ship, it would give any enemy wanting to battle at sea a real headache. Both the Ghost Mode and the Summon Sea Monster skills were incredibly useful.

As for the Drunkard's Flask, it was a precautionary purchase. Odd items like these might prove useful for some future order. After deducting 4200 transaction points, he was left with 2840 points.

Next, he opened the orders interface.

[Initiating search for a wish order. Search complete!]

[You've received a medium-level wish order.]

[Order description: Gourmet King Coco possesses antibodies for around 500 types of toxins, but this is not his limit.]

[Order content: 1. Provide at least ten new types of toxins. 2. Create a toxin that even Coco would praise (optional).]

[Basic order reward: 1000 trade points.]

[Optional reward: Special Skill: Self-Producing Antibodies (awarded upon completion of the optional content).]

[Time left for the order: 11 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds]

...

"Well, isn't this convenient?" 

Abel chuckled after reading the requirements for the medium-level wish order.

He had dozens of toxic substances left from the last injection he administered. He instructed his subordinates to gather as many new toxins as they could within the next 12 hours. 

As for the optional part of the order, Abel decided to submit his own blood. Given that his blood had mingled with so many deadly toxins, it should do the trick.

Ten hours later, Abel confidently submitted the order.

[Medium-level wish order completed, customer rated four stars (pleasant surprise)!]

[Review: Unique toxins with a fusion and devouring nature. I need to study this carefully.]

[Four-star rating increases the basic trade points by 50%, optional order content completed, reward auto-awarded, please check.]

[Due to the customer's satisfaction, you receive an extra reward—Toxin Antigen.]

...

[Special Skill: Self-Producing Antibodies]

Skill item

Description: A unique skill of Gourmet King Coco.

Effect: Can analyze any toxin and produce antibodies within the body to form immunity.

...

[Toxin Antigen]

Single-use consumable item

Description: Contains all the toxin antigens from Gourmet King Coco.

Effect: After injection, generates antibodies for 500 types of poisons in the body.

...

The content of this wish order was practically a gift, and the rewards were excellent. 

Abel was very satisfied and immediately used both [Special Skill: Self-Producing Antibodies] and [Toxin Antigen].

The former allowed him to actively analyze and create antibodies for toxins using gourmet cells, while the latter instantly made him a being with antibodies for over 500 types of toxins.

In the future, the danger of fusing lethal toxins was minimized. 

If anyone tried to poison him, they'd be in for a big surprise!

"First ice resistance, now poison resistance. Am I going to max out all resistances in the future?" Abel mused for a while, thinking this might be an 'invincible' path.

Upon waking up, he received more good news.

A pirate crew called the Mad Cow Pirates had been making headlines. Their captain, 'Mad Cow' Michael, had reached a bounty of 92 million. He becomes extraordinarily furious during battles and even massacred a naval branch!

Abel suspected that the [Soul of an Enraged Human] might be on him. He immediately sent people to gather information about the Mad Cow Pirates and their navigational route.

It was confirmed that they were heading towards Gaia Island. 

So Abel prepared to set off immediately.
