Black Book

Chapter 298 Don’t eat so ugly!

【Body】：41→50(20)↑
bang bang~
Punching his chest, feeling the solid and tight muscles, Zhu Haomiao nodded with satisfaction.

50 points of [Body], plus quadruple [Stellar Furnace Body Tempering Technique], triple [Tian Gang Jin], in terms of defense alone, the average fourth-grade warrior is slightly inferior!
Immediately, the young man looked up at the ceiling, his sight gradually becoming empty and out of focus, as if he had penetrated the barrier of matter and was looking directly at the mysterious and obscure laws of nature.

After a long time, Zhu Haomiao withdrew his gaze and sighed with regret.

What is coming will come...

Even without the active suppression of the will of heaven, his digestion efficiency still began to slow down after he was promoted to the silver level.

This can be seen from the increase in the cost of cashing out [Greed Coins]...

Originally it only took two gold coins to convert 1 point of sedimentation attribute, but now it takes 3!
As his strength grows, this value will continue to soar until it reaches the peak period of the First Heaven, when dozens of gold coins are needed to convert a little bit of attribute!
This is the law of physics. The closer you get to the limit of this world, the cost of every bit of progress will be dozens or even hundreds of times higher than before!
Zhu Haomiao let out a sigh, sat cross-legged, facing the sky, and slowly closed his eyes.

The long steps to godhood are long...

Only by enduring loneliness, boredom and hardships can you step onto the throne of God step by step and sit high in the sky!

........................

The sun rises and the moon sets
One afternoon a few days later, when Zhu Haomiao came to the Anti-Theft Bureau, he was stopped by Yan Yunsheng who had been waiting for a long time before he even entered the door.

"Sir, the general manager is here!"

Hearing Yan Yunsheng's nervous whisper in a low voice, Zhu Haomiao's eyes moved and he nodded calmly.

"Have you settled all the accounts?"

Hearing this, Yan Yunsheng remembered what the young man had told him yesterday, and nodded with a strange look on his face: "It's settled, but... Sir, isn't this a bit too much?"

"What are you afraid of? There will be no evidence anyway!"

Waving his hand, Zhu Haomiao walked into the Anti-Theft Bureau calmly. Before he reached the lobby, he saw an old man waiting outside the door.

"Lord Shao."

The young man stepped forward and greeted him in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

Shao Jie was the county lieutenant in charge of nine districts including Lechang District. He was an official of the sixth rank and was Li Lin's immediate superior.

However, it seems that the opponent fought too fiercely when he was young and suffered injuries, and now he is no longer in charge.

I didn't expect that this prison break would alarm him...

"Haha, [Pingyang Bo] was able to lead his team to kill the sixth-rank bandit without any casualties himself. He is really young and capable!"

Patting the boy on the shoulder, Shao Jie looked kind and encouraging.

After saying that, Shao Jie gently pushed the boy's vest and whispered, "Master Yin is waiting for you inside, go in."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Haomiao's heart moved and he clasped his fists politely.

"Forgive me for my rudeness."

"Well, let's go."

When Zhu Haomiao stepped into the lobby, he found that the spacious room was filled with corpses. A figure who looked intimidating without even showing any anger was sitting in the main seat, glaring at him unhappily.

"My nephew has met his uncle."

"It's called a job title in the workplace!"

"Uh... I have met [Nan Jing'an]."

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Yin Tianze waved Zhu Haomiao to his side, pointed at the corpses on the ground below, and glared at him with disappointment.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

"Yesterday a murderer broke into the prison..."

"Stop! Don't keep talking nonsense to me. There are no outsiders here, and Shao Jie is guarding outside. You might as well tell me the truth. What's going on?"

"Uh... Lord Jing'an, it was really this murderer who did it."

Pointing at a corpse with a distorted face and a miserable death, Zhu Haomiao said sincerely.

Looking at the young man's clear eyes with a hint of stupidity, Yin Tianze pinched his eyebrows in pain.

"You mean, a sixth-rank warrior inexplicably rushed into the prison of your Lechangfang Anti-theft Division and killed everyone he saw?"

"Yes." "What's the motive?!"

"Hmm... maybe there are accomplices inside, and they are worried that we may reveal some secrets through torture, so they want to kill us to silence us."

"Then why kill the other death row inmates?!"

"They are probably worried that the secret has been leaked, so they are trying to eliminate the hidden danger."

"........."

He wanted to say something but stopped, and Yin Tianze hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed helplessly.

"Okay, this excuse is barely enough to get by, so I'll let you pass."

"but……"

Changing the subject, Yin Tianze glared and slammed the table.

"What's with all that collateral damage in the back?"

"More than three hundred weapons, twenty divine arm bows, more than a thousand arrows, a room full of elixirs, all kinds of food, and even two hundred pieces of brocade are missing!"

"Is that guy here to purchase goods or to break out of prison?!"

Facing Yin Tianze's questioning, Zhu Haomiao remained calm and answered with his fist clasped.

"Yesterday, all the colleagues in the Anti-Theft Division fought against the bandits for 300 rounds. Various supplies were slightly damaged. This is reasonable..."

Looking at the young man's expression that said 'Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway', Yin Tianze felt his head throbbing with pain.

After a long silence, Yin Tianze sighed helplessly and whispered earnestly.

"Forget it this time, but don't eat so ugly next time!"

Feeling Yin Tianze's obvious change in attitude, Zhu Haomiao raised the corners of his mouth to smile.

"Yes, uncle."

Immediately, Yin Tianze's expression relaxed, he looked up and down at the young man in front of him, and frowned slightly.

"Finally, is this guy really a sixth-rank? You didn't lie about your achievements?"

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao's face straightened and he nodded solemnly.

"It's really the sixth grade, and it's one of the stronger ones!"

"Then how did you kill him?!"

This is also what Yin Tianze can't understand the most. With the military configuration of the Lechangfang Anti-Theft Bureau, facing a sixth-grade warrior, they can't even stop him, let alone kill him!
This is also the reason why all prisoners of the [Middle Three Ranks] must be sent to the General Prison for detention!
Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao blinked in surprise.

"Uncle, the report document should be written very clearly."

"I want the truth, not your excuse to take credit for something."

"Well...but the document is the truth. I was forced into a corner and accidentally killed him."

Seeing that the young man was still being stubborn, Yin Tianze laughed angrily.

"You mean, you killed a sixth-rank warrior with your own hands?"

"Yes."

Staring at the young man's sincere and clear eyes, Yin Tianze held his forehead in pain and muttered to himself.

"I've told you all this... don't be so shameless when you're greedy. There's a limit to how much you can lie about your achievements!"

Seeing this, Zhu Haomiao blinked in confusion.

"Uncle, it's just a sixth rank, is this difficult?"

"Haha, not difficult..."

Hearing the young man's arrogant remarks, Yin Tianze's face turned ferocious, and his five fingers grabbed Zhu Haomiao's wrist like eagle claws.

slap~
"A sixth-rank warrior's strength is enough to break monuments and split rocks, but a single grab on your delicate skin... Huh?"
