The evil witch BOSS just wants to develop in a low-key manner

Chapter 42: Headline News [Ogran City]

[Starmark Fighter] (30th Anniversary Exclusive Commemorative Edition) (Untradeable)
Level: 2 (0%)

【talent】

Strong Will and Iron Bones (SS Rank): You possess a will and body of steel.

【Skill】

Basic Skull-Splitting Fist: Level 1 (0%)

Gangqi Specialization (Passive): Level 0.

…………

"Gained a passive combat specialization."

I carefully looked through my panel and found that I had reached level 2.

[Fighter] only gained one passive "Gang Qi Specialization".

[Evil Spirit Wizard] got nothing.

Zorn smiled instead.

"It's a loss in the short term, but a sure win in the long term."

In the world of [Holy Traces·Eternal Poem].

If after upgrading, no skills are obtained at the current level.

Then the next time you upgrade, you will definitely gain more powerful skills, or even forbidden techniques.

[Evil Wizard] When he is promoted to level 2, he does not gain any skills, which means when Zorn is promoted to level 3.

You will definitely obtain an extremely powerful "supernatural spell", or even a powerful forbidden spell like "Scythe of the End".

Moreover, by then, with the power of the black fog of disaster, Zorn will be able to fully unleash the powerful spells he likes.

There won't be too many opportunities like this for the [Evil Spirit Wizard].

For [Fighter].

This passive skill is more popular than the active skill.

The passive skill "Gang Qi Expertise" allows Zorn's Gang Qi to grow faster, making it more flexible to use, while also enhancing the power of the "Gang Qi".

A fighter's strength lies in this energy.

With this "Gangqi Expertise", the fighter's close combat ability is greatly enhanced.

[Fighter] Quickly increase your energy and strength at low levels.

The [Evil Spirit Wizard] is more stable and has more powerful evil spirit witchcraft.

This can be said to be one of the best combinations for early upgrades.

Inside the carriage, Zorn checked his panel, immersed in the joy of his upgrade.

And outside is the city of Ogland.

In the turmoil of the rat plague, they dance with the disaster of death!
……

6 month 6 day.

The rat plague in Oglan City has officially broken out on a large scale.

A devastating rat plague broke out in many parts of Ogland City.

In the old city, tens of thousands of gray rats and rats swarmed through the streets, leaving pedestrians unable to avoid them.

After the rat tide, only a pile of bones remained.

New town area.

Under the leadership of the Night Rat People, they smashed the doors and windows and dragged the residents into the sewers.

A tragic and bloody graduation ceremony was held at the aristocratic college. Thirty or forty students and teachers were dragged underground by a tide of rats, and their whereabouts are unknown.

The most tragic event was at the Holy Sun Church, where tens of thousands of plague rats climbed up the tower and bit through the ropes, causing the church's holy bell to fall.

Even that group of arrogant plague rats wanted to attack the Holy Sun Church.

However, a large number of plague rats were ignited by the mysterious flames during the impact.

Tens of thousands of plague rats swarmed at the gate of the Holy Sun Church, and raging flames burned deep into the night.

Although, only the holy bell fell.

But the impact it caused was unprecedentedly severe.

That night, the "rat plague" incident in Oglan City was transmitted to every corner of the continent through steam telegraph and other means of transmission.

In the early hours of the morning, the Steam Daily factory worked overtime to print out the "rat plague" incident in Ogland City.

The next day, when the sun came up.

amid the cries of newsboys waving their steaming daily newspapers.

The [Rat Plague Incident] in Oglan City officially made headlines on the front page of the Holy Continent.

It was also on this day that catastrophic and extraordinary events began to emerge on the continent.

A new era roars in on the tide of steam.

……

early morning.

In the backyard of the manor, under the dense forest.

Zoen controlled the inner energy and practiced the basic skull-splitting fist which had already reached level 1.

The star mark energy is mixed in it, and every punch contains astonishing destructive power.

With the help of "Gang Qi Mastery", Zoen felt that the Gang Qi was surging in his body like a raging wave.

While Zorn was adapting to the effects of the all-round transformation after being promoted to Level 2, he was also counting his own consumption.

"About two-thirds of the offerings previously offered to the secret place have been consumed."

"The remaining one-third can help me advance my level by 20 to 30 percent."

"Fortunately..."

Zorn retracted the final fist of the Skull-Splitting Fist and looked to the south.

woo woo woo...

Faintly, he could hear the roar of waves of steam.

Amid the roar of steam, there was the cacophony of workers communicating with each other while working in the steam factory.

"Fortunately, the steam plant is already running." "It gives my evil spirit a place to rest."

"At the same time, thanks to the dual-sequence bug, my upgrade speed is quite fast."

The layout that previously cost a lot of time and money has now become a powerful engine for Zorn's steady development.

breakfast time.

Zorn brought over the freshly-made Steam Daily from Ogland City.

As expected, many pages were filled with reports of the rat plague outbreak in Ogland City yesterday.

The newspaper's accompanying picture showed a swarm of rats devouring the tower of the Holy Sun Church and biting off the holy bell.

There was a scene where tens of thousands of rats were marching across the street, dragging pedestrians.

There was a scene where rats crawled all over the glass windows and broke into the house.

Of course, the bloody ceremony at the Aristocratic Academy in Oglan City and the scene of bloody debris all over the ground were also reported.

Panic and anxiety are shrouding the city of Ogland.

As the landing front of the catastrophic forces.

The city of Oglan is facing its first major test in the wave of the extraordinary era.

Zoen, who was in the city of Oglan, was well aware that Oglan had now attracted the attention of the entire continent, and the vortex storm of the extraordinary and catastrophe was growing stronger.

"Ok?"

After reading the newspaper, my eyes swept across the small advertisement area in the middle of the newspaper.

Some special combinations of words attracted Zorn's attention.

After a little analysis using different permutations and combinations.

Zoen's mind moved slightly.

"Is the Extraordinary Gathering finally...coming?"

"Tomorrow is the time."

"It seems... the rat plague has also catalyzed actions among the extraordinary people."

After breakfast, Zorn also finished reading the newspaper.

"Is the basement any better?"

Zorn looked at the old butler Gronk beside him.

"The basic door frame is already sealed quite tightly, so the grayish green miasma shouldn't be able to get up."

"And I check it every day."

The old butler Grunk said this.

"Ok!"

Zorn nodded, Gronk was still very cautious in his work.

A rat plague broke out yesterday.

After returning, Zorn checked the sewers and basement.

A poisonous miasma of pollution and curse has spread throughout the sewers.

Although the rat hole in the basement of the manor was sealed, the poisonous miasma still continued to seep in.

Zorn could only order Grank to seal the door to the basement entrance.

The poisonous miasma that is full of pollution and curse, once infecting ordinary people, can cause a serious illness at the very least, or even contamination and deformation, with the head, limbs, arms and other parts turning into rats, and then turning into deformed ratmen.

Catastrophic!

For ordinary people, it is a life-threatening disaster!

"Tomorrow... is the Extraordinary People's Gathering in Oglan City."

"It's considered a relatively important gathering among extraordinary people in June."

"Not only are there many special and extraordinary people with powerful means participating."

“At the same time, there are some special good things coming out.”

"And these special good things happen to be unknown to anyone here."

“This is a great opportunity to pick up a bargain.”

With this in mind, Zorn looked at the butler Grank and said.

"Uncle Grunkle, I need to use some gold pounds, about 5000 gold pounds."

Gronk didn't ask what Zorn was going to do, but nodded immediately.

"I'll go to the bank and get it back for you this afternoon."

Zorn currently has about 1800 gold pounds.

Adding the 5000 gold pounds he took out, the total was 6800 gold pounds, which was enough for Zorn to gain a lot from the exchange meeting among the extraordinary people.

Although it is highly likely that you won’t use that much.

But it is better to be prepared than to be caught unpredictable. This has always been Zorn's principle of action.

When the goddess of luck is not on Zorn's side, Zorn has to use gold pounds as a bargaining chip to gain an overwhelming chance of winning.

After graduation, Zorn no longer needed to continue his studies.

But Zorn himself began to study geography and steam navigation.

Knowledge in these areas will play a significant role in the future.

After enjoying a sumptuous lunch, Zorn originally wanted to take a short rest and better digest the sacrifices he had previously robbed.

"Master Zorn, a lady is visiting you and is waiting outside the manor."

Vanessa walks in with the news.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Zorn rubbed his brows.

"You're coming... so soon? This shouldn't be the case!"

"Is there a problem in any link?"

Through the window, Zorn saw a tall, middle-aged woman standing at the door, wearing a simple, fitted black dress and a veil, lighting a cigarette with a match.

She was looking towards the window, and deep in her silver pupils, she seemed to reflect the reflection of Zorn inside the house.
