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

Chapter 3 Youth Version [God Hunter] and [Evil God]

Old Town, Luke Street.

An old, yet still luxurious and spacious aristocratic carriage was parked by the roadside.

It took Zorn two hours to walk from Glo Street in the new city to Luke Street in the old city, a distance of half an hour.

The main reason was that Zorn deliberately asked the coachman, old Nero, to take a long detour and get off the carriage twice to learn a lot about the situation on the streets along the way.

Only by experiencing the current Ogland City firsthand can we better prepare for various plans in the future.

With his eyes closed, Zorn had already come up with several good investment plans, combining the plans in his mind with what he had learned about the market this time.

Of course, the prerequisite for all this is to have some start-up capital.

The funds of over one hundred gold pounds in the manor were obviously not enough.

Today, the treasure deep in the sewer is the precious start-up capital, which cannot be lost.

With Zorn's current strength, it's possible, but it's a bit risky and there's even a risk of failure.

But it is much safer to work together with the extraordinary "rat catcher" who is very familiar with the sewers of Ogland City.

The most important thing is that the prices charged by these rat catchers at the bottom of society are often not very expensive, which will be a very cost-effective deal.

Soon, footsteps were heard approaching outside.

Then the carriage door opened and the butler Grunkle led the way.

Two rat catchers entered the carriage.

The relatively spacious carriage still has ample space even when four people sit down.

On the opposite left side is a middle-aged man in his early thirties. He is wearing a thick felt hat, a plush coat inside, a rough-collared jacket outside, and leggings and black rubber waterproof boots.

This outfit can keep out moisture in the cold and damp sewers, wade through shallow water, and resist the bites of mutant gray rats.

Beneath his rough eyebrows, his calm eyes were filled with doubt and deep vigilance.

The veteran rat catcher remained sufficiently sober in the face of a nobleman's rash invitation.

He was well aware of the huge gap between a rat catcher at the bottom of society and an aristocrat at the top.

The other young rat catcher who was traveling with them was about the same age as Zorn and was dressed similarly.

But this fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy was more curious and embarrassed about everything in front of him.

When I saw the aristocratic young man dressed in a clean and neat black suit, who looked like he had walked out of an art painting.

His identity as a rat catcher and his poverty made him feel like a rat in a sewer, trying to find a place to hide. His inferiority complex made him a little helpless, and he even tried to reduce his breathing as much as possible.

In the car, Zorn looked at the young rat catcher in front of him, who was of the same age as him, with some interest.

Although the young man in front of him seemed a little uneasy and a little embarrassed.

But Zorn knew.

This young rat catcher named "Isaac Adolf" is the future "Legendary God Hunter".

His fame will spread to every corner of the continent.

On the Holy Land, he hunted and destroyed the Plague Rats that caused the terrible plague disaster.

Some not-so-powerful evil spirits would tremble in fear just by hearing the name of the God Hunter.

Of course, if we follow Zorn Korlik's previous trajectory.

Isaac Adolf will participate in the hunting and crusade against the "evil wizard" at the appropriate time and deal a heavy blow to the big boss, the evil wizard.

There is no doubt that the destinies of the two people are bound to intersect.

However, the future [Legendary God Hunter] is still just a weak teenager.

The future big boss, the evil wizard, part of a certain evil god, is also a fledgling.

This time, Zorn's target was not the young rat catcher who was not yet a superhuman, but Bevis Ackerman, a senior rat catcher in his early thirties, the apprentice's guide and teacher.

A [Rat Catcher] who truly masters the extraordinary sequence.

After a moment, Zorn broke the silence in the car and got straight to the point.

"Sir Bevis, I need to go to the 'blue fluorescent moss' area deep in the sewer to look for something."

"Recently, there's been an infestation of gray rats deep in the sewers. I've heard quite a few dangerous rumors."

"For example, there are rats as big as medium-sized dogs. They are violent and cruel, and will push homeless people and drunkards deep into the sewers and eat them."

"They also target young children and follow the sounds to steal babies for food."

"They even imitate the mating calls of female cats to attract stray cats and then kill them."

"From these rumors, we can see how dangerous those terrible sewer rats are."

"So, I hope you can protect me."

"Once the task is completed, you will receive a reward of five gold pounds!"

The deep pupils beneath Bevis's rough eyebrows shrank slightly.

Five gold pounds may not be much for the nobles, but for them, the rat catchers, it is an offer that cannot be refused.

Because of the rat infestation, the Ogland City Council increased the recycling price for giant gray rats, which made life a little easier for their rat catchers, but only a little better.

50 to 100 copper le per day, which is between one and two silver dragons.

This is what the two of them earn for a whole day in the sewer.

And one gold pound is worth 20 silver dragons.

To earn 5 gold pounds, the two of them would have to work for three or four months without eating or drinking.

"Blue Fluorescent Moss Area?"

Bevis Ackerman's face showed a look of serious thought.

"That's a huge area. If you could provide more detailed information, perhaps... we could save a lot of time."

Hearing this, Zorn took out a piece of ordinary parchment and handed it over.

After Bevis Ackerman opened it and examined it for a moment, he raised his head again and looked at the noble boy in front of him who looked like his apprentice.

"I think I know the exact location. We can even go in through the nearest entrance."

The parchment was painted with a holy emblem of two snake heads surrounding each other. It was the abandoned underground area of the "Sun Twin Serpents", an evil organization that had been wiped out.

And that is where the treasure is hidden.

…………

A quarter of an hour later.

Follow the rusty sewer handrail to the sewer.

An indescribable stench of decay, pungent stickiness, and stench hit him. After all, Zorn was an old player. In the past, he had done a lot of catching gray rats in this sewer.

In addition, he is from the [Star Mark Fighter] sequence, so his adaptability is strong.

After a while, Zorn adapted to the environment here.

The young rat catcher Isaac skillfully opened the lantern and lit it.

The hand-held lantern with reflective glass gathered its orange light and illuminated the darkness ahead like a flashlight.

This is a standard underground drainage channel.

There is a drainage ditch about six to seven feet in the middle, with foot-wide walkways on both sides.

Long ago, this underground passage was a place where the residents of Oglan City could take shelter from the invasion of gray fog.

With the development of the times, the threat of gray fog invasion has disappeared.

The underground passage was abandoned.

It became the sewage channel for the entire city.

The rat catcher Bevis Ackerman glanced at the noble boy beside him and was a little surprised.

You know, let alone the nobles, even ordinary people can hardly stand the dirty and disgusting smell in the sewers.

And the noble young man in front of him acted as if nothing had happened.

For a moment, he became more and more certain of his guess.

Dipping one hand in some sewage from the sewer ditch, Bevis quickly drew a summoning ritual array with a hexagram as the background in front of him, and then placed one hand on it and chanted the spell.

The obscure and difficult-to-pronounce spell echoed in the dark and cold sewer like a ghost.

A shadowy black mist supported the palm of Rat Catcher Bevis.

A mouse, about the size of a small dog, with green pupils and shiny fur, quickly emerged from the shadowy black fog, squeaking.

And there was more than one mouse, three in total.

"Contracted Spirit Rat?"

Zorn raised his brow slightly.

This is a good extraordinary ability. Although the contracted spirit rats have average combat capabilities, they are nimble and light, with strong sense of smell and hearing. They have the ability to penetrate walls, dig holes, and eavesdrop on intelligence information.

These seemingly insignificant abilities can sometimes play a big role.

Contracting Spirit Rat is one of the very good abilities in the [Rat Catcher] sequence.

The voice of the noble boy made Bevis Ackerman look up slightly.

He had felt before that this noble boy was extraordinary, and now it seemed that he was indeed an extraordinary person.

Following a few whistles from Bevis after he stood up, the three squeaking contracted spirit rats quickly disappeared into the darkness ahead.

Seeing this scene, Zorn felt a little relieved.

With the contracted spirit rats leading the way and exploring ahead, if a group of ferocious and violent rats appears, the three of them can discover it at the first time and then run away.

Otherwise, if you run into a swarm of rats, you'll be in big trouble.

This is one of the reasons why Zorn looks for this extraordinary rat catcher.

"Respected Lord Zorn, I never thought you would be a transcendent at such a young age!"

Bevis looked at Zorn and said in a steady voice.

Extraordinary?
Isaac, the rat-catching apprentice, was startled.

The corner of my eye swept over the handsome and elegant nobleman, and envy filled my heart.

From his teacher, he knew that extraordinary people possessed incredible abilities.

He has always wanted to become an extraordinary person, but the teacher's answer is always the same.

"Isaac, you're not ready yet!"

Such answers always made him frustrated and discouraged.

Zorn did not comment on Bevis's explanation.

Hiding one's identity and sequence as much as possible is one of the things that a transcendent needs to do.

He narrowed his eyes and looked into the darkness where the contracted spirit rat had cleared the way.

"Sir Bevis, can you tell me about the rumors about the Rat King?"

"Rat King?"

Bevis, who was leading the way, frowned slightly.

"Some time ago, a rat catcher said he saw a giant rat like a large hound deep underground, dragging a homeless person who was begging for mercy into the sewer."

"Since then, news of the man-eating Rat King has spread."

"At the same time, in several other locations, rat trappers have reported that their traps have been vandalized."

"I'm not sure if there really is a Rat King."

"But judging by these rumors, there are indeed giant intelligent rats."

"We'd better pray that we don't run into that scary big guy."

While explaining, Bevis had already moved deeper into the sewer tunnel.

"Don't touch it?"

Zorn's pupils narrowed slightly, and the smile at the corner of his mouth was vague.

"Excuse me, our destination is the lair of the Rat King."

"The current Rat King is only level one. He's still weak, so he's easy to deal with."

"Once the rat plague breaks out and the Rat King completes his transformation and ascension, gaining control of a powerful forbidden power, we will be unable to deal with it."

Led by Bevis, the three men kept encountering rats.

Sometimes one or two, sometimes three or five.

The big ones are as big as domestic cats.

However, thanks to the apprentice Isaac's slingshot, the rats soon became trophies.

When you step into a wider sewer passage.

A large area of azure fluorescent moss appeared in front of Zorn.

We have arrived at the treasure place!
