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

Chapter 31 [Rat Plague] is coming!
The heavy rain last night made the air in the early morning particularly fresh.

Moreover, the sleep-inducing effect of the rainy night also made Zorn sleep particularly well last night.

Of course, for evil wizards, sleep is just physical slumber.

The evil spirit of the evil wizard never sleeps.

Always be alert to reality, dreams, and the spirit world.

At the same time, Zorn's spiritual will spent the entire night digesting the resources of the "secret source".

Open the windows and let the slightly cool morning air blow into the living room.

While enjoying his breakfast, Zorn looked at the level column on his system page.

[Starmark Fighter] (30th Anniversary Exclusive Commemorative Edition) (Untradeable)
Level: 1 (10%)

【talent】

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

【Skill】

Basic Skull-Splitting Fist: Level 0 (35%)

…………

Yesterday it was still 6% experience.

After devouring the souls of several mafia members and digesting the sacrifices overnight.

Sequence experience increased by 10%.

Needless to say, this improves efficiency.

Over the next period of time, sequence experience will surge.

Zorn estimated that by the time he graduated from the Noble Academy, he would be promoted to Level Two, which was much faster than originally planned.

After finishing breakfast, Zorn looked at the old butler Grunk beside him.

"Uncle Grunkle, I heard some noise coming from the kitchen this morning. What happened?"

The old butler Grank's expression changed slightly before he told the truth.

"Master Zorn, there are a lot of rats in the kitchen. They are very big, as big as house cats. There are even two big ones that are terrifying."

"In the morning, those horrible creatures chased Sophia, the laundry lady, and Daisy, the kitchen help, who were getting up early."

"They were both terrified."

"When Vanessa and Chef Berita rushed over, those damned scary rats were dragging Sophia into a corner."

"When I got there, Sophia was pale and trembling all over. She hadn't regained the strength to stand up yet."

"Those damn sewer rats are so... lawless."

"I've already reprimanded Chef Berita, and he's checking and cleaning the kitchen."

"Currently, in the corner, he found a rat hole the size of a plate."

After a pause, Gronk continued.

"Recently, rats have been infesting not only our home but also some other nobles' homes. It's said that some long-tailed hunting cats, which are good at catching rats, have died under the siege of the rats."

"Maybe... we should find a rat catcher to clean it up."

Zorn frowned slightly upon hearing this.

The terrible power of the Scourge Rats is gestating, and there are obvious signs.

This is not something that can be solved by cleaning.

"Uncle Grunk, go find some bricklayers today to inspect the entire castle's foundation area and fill in all the potential rat holes."

Faced with the impending rat plague, Zorn cannot stay out of it and needs to take adequate precautions.

He was not afraid of the "Night Rats" or the "Night Rat Men" who were born from the Night Rats and possessed certain extraordinary powers.

Even when the Night Rat arrived, they only served as a snack for Zorn.

But the other people in the manor did not have much resistance against the Night Rat.

"Also, I'll contact some rat catchers; they have more experience in dealing with rats."

Having said that, Zorn has already started thinking about making a slaughter trap for the "Night Rat".

The terrible [rat plague] is a disaster for ordinary people.

To the evil wizard Zorn Korrik, it was more like a feast!
He can use the power of catastrophe to pry open many things.

That afternoon, Grank called in several masons and began to inspect and repair the underground foundation of the entire manor.

The next few days.

While continuing his studies, Zorn steadily and rapidly digested the resources transmitted from the secret source and grew rapidly.

Even Zorn's serious study attitude attracted some ignorant and shy girl.

One afternoon after school, Zorn found an anonymous "love letter" expressing his admiration in his schoolbag.

This made Zorn sigh at the simplicity and innocence of youth.

In this new week, news of rat infestations in small areas of Ogland City has frequently appeared, and it has finally begun to appear in the Ogland Steam Daily.

…………

The penultimate weekend of May, midsummer.

Zorn was enjoying a rare and relaxing morning tea time.

The good news is finally here!
Just yesterday, the management bill for the steam plant in Ogland City was officially promulgated.

The contents of those key bills were stricter than Zorn had expected.

Not only are there minimum wage standards for workers, but there are also coal smoke emission standards, and inspections of many steam factories will be more stringent.

Obviously, Ogland City Hall has noticed that something is wrong.

The rapid development of the steam industry has promoted the prosperity and development of Oglan City and attracted a large number of outsiders to come to Oglan City to make a living.

This also allowed the evil tantric sects, gangs, and criminal gangs to grow and develop in Oglan City.

Once there are too many people, the light cannot reach deeper.

The restless power of cataclysm is brewing deep in the dark shadows of Oglan City.

Given the population density of Oglan City, if the power of the evil god catastrophizes, it will be a disaster.

That would be a terrible nightmare.

The enactment of the stricter Steam Plant Management Act was quite good news for Zorn.

This morning, three steam factory owners came to visit Zorn.

The old butler Grank was in charge of the reception.

Currently, Gronk is accompanying a factory owner on a field trip to their steam plant.

If all goes well, the steam plant can be finalized within the next two days.

Once the steam factory is finalized and the potion master is secured, the factory can start training.

Unfortunately, the potion master "Vladimir Kogin" did not come to visit these days.

Zorn has already begun secretly looking for new candidates.

The absence of a potion master cannot interfere with Zorn's steam factory plan.

Just as Zorn was wondering whether he should go to Adolf Monastery to buy some resources he needed, footsteps were heard outside the door.

It was old Nero coming with the young rat-catcher Isaac.

"You rat catchers must be very busy these days!"

Zorn asked, standing up.

Zorn had Gronk go to 1456 Rook Street and see Bevis the rat catcher.

But I went there three times and they were not there.

I learned from the landlord that the rat catcher and his apprentice have been so busy cleaning up the rat infestation these days that they have hardly been seen.

“It’s so busy!”

Isaac scratched his head and smiled shyly.

Immediately, he said with an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zorn. My teacher originally asked me to come here yesterday, but I was really too tired."

"I swear I really just wanted to rest for a little while, and when I opened my eyes it was already morning!"

He stood there, feeling uneasy about his "mistake".

"What a simple child!"

Zorn said secretly.

"I think you haven't had breakfast yet."

Zorn asked Isaac to sit down and pushed the exquisite cheese cakes and scones in front of Isaac.

After a little struggle, hunger finally prevailed.

With his morning tea, Isaac turned into a man who buried his head in his meal.

Seeing Isaac's hungry appearance, Zorn couldn't help but smile and shifted his gaze to the distance.

When he obtained the [Evil Spirit Wizard] sequence and was tortured by hunger, he frantically absorbed the life of the mutant gray rat, and his appearance was not much better than Isaac at this time.

His stomach was almost full, so Isaac raised his head and gave Zorn a slightly awkward smile.

Some time ago, every time Isaac came to deliver the gray mouse, he would spend some time with Zorn.

Isaac would ask Zorn a lot about paranormal knowledge.

Zorn is also a good teacher, so he is naturally enthusiastic about teaching.

Every time Isaac communicates with Zorn, he gains rich rewards and deeper understanding.

"How's the rat infestation going these days?"

Zorn withdrew his gaze from the window and looked at Isaac and asked.

Isaac thought seriously for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"It's very troublesome! And very tricky!"

"Many residents living on the ground floor and in basements have experienced rodent infestations and a number of people have been bitten."

"If there's plague, it'll be even more troublesome."

"As far as I know, there have been several cases of homeless people sleeping on the streets being eaten to death by rats at night."

"The screams alerted the patrol officers, but they were powerless in the face of the swarm of rats."

"Yesterday, a police officer came to us and said that a child had been dragged into a rat hole by rats, and hoped that we could lend a hand."

At this point, Isaac's face darkened and his will weakened a little.

"I searched around there for a long time but found no trace."

"If I were stronger, maybe... I could find the child that was dragged away by the damn rat."

The rat plague is breaking out!
Hear Isaac's story.

This also verifies Zorn's idea.

This is just the prelude, and there will be unrest in a small area during nightfall.

When the rat plague reached its climax.

Tens of thousands of rats swarmed through the streets under the scorching sun, acting with impunity.

The "Evil Night Rat Man" with extraordinary powers even dared to attack the police station and challenge the country's violent system.

At that time, residents can only hide at home, watch the terrible disaster rampant outside through the window, and pray that those terrible guys will not break in.

There are so many ants that they can kill an elephant.

Not to mention, they are all mutated gray rats that are contaminated and deformed.

Their squeaking and hissing will drown out the bells of the sacred sun of noon, and the terrible power of cataclysm will no longer be satisfied with the sewers, but will spread throughout the city of Oglan.

By then!

The catastrophic power from the [Rat Plague] will severely challenge the authority of the Holy Sun Church.

And carved an indelible stigma of disaster in the city of Oglan.
