There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 206, Career Balance

The appearance of the Rat King greatly stimulated the remaining red-eyed rats.

These red-eyed rats rushed towards Xiao Yang even more frantically from the ruins.

But even so, the situation was not bad. The red-eyed rat just now couldn't do anything to Xiao Yang, so the red-eyed rat now naturally couldn't do anything to Xiao Yang either.

His eyes fell on the tangled mass of rats, and Xiao Yang felt a strong appetite at this moment.

This feeling, this surging desire to devour, Xiao Yang had only felt it in the final boss of the bandit camp, who was blessed and transformed on the spot by the plundered and occupied beast.

It would be a good dessert. At this moment, this thought appeared involuntarily in Xiao Yang's mind.

The battle in the ruins is about to enter its second phase.

More and higher-level individuals began to appear among the crazy rats.

A high enough level, higher panel damage, and a huge number, all of these combined make this group of red-eyed rats not so easy to deal with.

But unfortunately, this set of skills is of no use to Xiao Yang. As long as he doesn't have any special abilities, or the values ​​directly jump over a large stage, then no matter how many such group attacks come, for him, they will just be a few more experience points that will pop up on the panel.

Experience plus one, experience plus two, experience plus one, strings of characters appeared in front of Xiao Yang, densely packed, constantly brushing by, inexplicably refreshing.

The swarm of rats gathered here is not truly boundless.

He really liked conquering dungeons like this, which only had a flat area as a battle field, with no mechanisms, puzzles, or hidden secrets. No, there might be a hidden secret here.

But overall, it can still be considered direct and straightforward, without too many frills. The highlight is seeing monsters, attacking monsters, and getting rewards.

Simple yet efficient.

Xiao Yang appeared in front of the Rat King almost stepping on the densely packed corpses of red-eyed rats.

This rat king did not display some of its more terrifying abilities.

That’s right, even in the legend, the Rat King is just a special monster that is closer to the image of a declaration.

Its appearance represents the coming plague, death, and the presence of plague rats.

It's time to eat.

Pause in front of this tangled mass of rats.

I have to admit that this time the Rat King is a little hard to look at.

"It's really ugly!"

At this time, the rats that made up the Rat King were still trying to attack Xiao Yang with sharp hissing.

Especially the tangled tails, which looked like a large ball of black spaghetti or a worm.

Cast a probe spell.

Rat King

Rank: Intermediate evil god's follower

Rating: 31
Traits: Plague Proclamation, Death Proclamation, Doomsday Proclamation, Swarm, Entangled Rat

Introduction: In some ways, these are just a group of ordinary mice pursuing a strange hobby, but in reality, you wouldn't want to see a group of mice like this. This is the beginning of an increasingly fixed ritual or ceremony, a kind of announcement.

Unexpectedly, the Rat King's rank was actually that of a mid-level evil god's follower.

It was the first medium-level evil god's follower Xiao Yang had seen.

Just like the players in the God Game, the evil god's followers also have a set of independent ranks.

Believers, followers of low-level evil gods, followers of medium-level evil gods, followers of high-level evil gods, messengers, incarnations.

Their rank stops at the incarnation level at most, which corresponds to the demigod level. There is a way to become a demigod on the Internet, but the next step is difficult to describe.

When the followers of evil gods reach the end, they will not become a new evil god, but will become a part of the god they believe in, an aspect, a dogma, and become such an existence.

A simple correspondence between the two sets of levels is not accurate, but it is appropriate enough.

Low-level evil god's followers, elites, medium-level evil god's followers, lords, high-level evil god's followers, epics, messengers, legends, incarnations, and demigods.

This Rat King is actually an elite monster of the lord level.

This is really surprising.

Because this Rat King is unexpectedly weak.

It cannot be said that he has no fighting ability at all, but if you put aside the red-eyed rats guarding him and talk about himself alone, Xiao Yang even feels that a team of miners in the shantytown outside the Bell Tower City can deal with him.

It's really weak.

But if you think about its characteristics and the information revealed in the introduction, then this situation does not seem so strange.

"The declaration of plague, the declaration of death, the declaration of doom? The beginning of rituals and ceremonies?"

Its existence seems to be solely for the purpose of issuing these declarations, a living ritual declaration.

At this point, the reason why the Rat King is so weak is understandable.

It's not a combat unit at all.

"A conspiracy?"

Xiao Yang felt that he had sensed a conspiracy, a conspiracy that was about to happen.

A conspiracy was about to be launched by the plague rats, and as the novice savior, he subconsciously wanted to stop this conspiracy.

"But, how can we do it?"

This is a good question, but Xiao Yang was suddenly at a loss as to the answer.

After a brief thought, I gave up.

"I don't have any clue, let's see later!"

In the absence of more information, such things cannot be rushed. Xiao Yang, who has developed a strong heart in all kinds of chaotic situations, will not let himself panic for no reason.

Anyway, he is here, and if anything really happens, he will be the first to be affected.

Now that things have come to this, let's have a meal first. After coming back from this series of thoughts, Xiao Yang once again set his sights on the tangled rat king in front of him.

It's a pity that after being digested by the Evil God Devourer, these Evil God's followers will basically not drop any good things.

Otherwise, the Rat King, a medium-level evil god's follower, might even drop a piece of legendary equipment.

The swallowing began, and Xiao Yang devoured a plate of pasta.

[Complete a devouring action. The Devourer of the Evil God gains career experience and his career level is increased. Current level is eight.]

[Perform a Shimmering Action once. Shimmering Advancers gain career experience and their career level is increased. Current level is seven.]

[Glimmer skill points are being distributed. Current glimmer skill points are two.]

It's time to pick up the trash.

Xiao Yang squatted down and reached into the shriveled and dim body of the Rat King.

A golden light appeared, and Xiao Yang suddenly perked up.

"Is it time for my luck to finally explode?"

He looked at the golden light in his hand with great surprise, and was so shocked until Xiao Yang saw clearly what was in his hand.

A handful of the Rat King's hair

Quality: Legend

Introduction: Is this a bunch of ordinary hair? No! This is a bunch of the Rat King's hair!

Xiaogu also stuck his head out at this time, and the little guy was holding a bunch of mouse tails in his hand.

Can Xiaogu perform miracles?

Xiao Yang suddenly had such a thought.

With an expectant expression on his face, Xiaogu stretched out his hand and groped the corpse of the Rat King in front of him.

The golden light appeared in front of Xiao Yang again.

Then, another tuft of the Rat King's hair appeared.

A legendary useless little piece of junk plus one, it makes people scratch their heads.

Maybe it will have some other uses later, Xiao Yang thought so, put it away and rubbed the little guy's head.

The skull of the small bone became more and more lustrous and gradually covered with patina.

And the culprit of all this had just withdrawn his hand with satisfaction.

I'm afraid it won't be long before there will be a little skeleton thief with a covered head in pulp in this world.

Xiao Yang is truly guilty of a heinous crime.

It's time to add points. The Evil Devourer has been upgraded to three levels, and the Glimmer Advancer has been upgraded to two levels. It's a pretty big upgrade.

Whether it is the Cthulhu Devourer or the Glimmer Advancer, they will have a small qualitative change at level ten. The Cthulhu Devourer will have one more trait, while the Glimmer Advancer will have one of three skills to choose from.

It will be soon. One will be at level eight and the other at level seven. It will happen in this period of time.

Although Xiao Yang's two professions are a bit strange, some common professions are also given.

Professional traits, professional skills, skill points given by upgrading, and additional professional bonuses.

These are all available.

It's just that the distribution is a little fragmented.

Devourer of the Cthulhu does not provide any skills, and Glimmer Advancer does not provide any traits.

It is only complete when both professions are combined.

Xiao Yang discovered the troublesome situation.

He found that if he only relied on devouring the evil god's followers to upgrade.

The level gap between the two professions is actually slowly widening.

Because essentially, the Glimmer Advancer does not gain power from the devoured evil gods, but rather gains experience from killing the evil gods' followers and weakening their power.

This situation has resulted in the gap between the two professions officially widening by one level today.

It is hard to say what the consequences of the widening level gap will be.

However, Xiao Yang felt that it would be better to bring the growth progress of the two professions to the same level.

This thought came from an unreasonable premonition.

It's like a balance scale. If the weights on both ends are similar, it is a normal and stable situation. If one side overwhelms the other, it means that a problem has occurred.

A balance is needed, but how?
It's not difficult to do. Just give the Glimmer Advancer a little extra experience so that it can catch up with its professional level.

“What to do!”

"Want to do good things?"

Although it sounds ridiculous, it seems to be the case.

Do good things.

The career experience of the Shimmer Advancer can be gained from any bright behavior, which means doing good deeds.

But during this period of time, Xiao Yang will probably have to take root in this rotten land.

This situation will continue for a long time.

Being a good person and doing good deeds in this rotten land, inexplicably, a very wonderful feeling appeared in Xiao Yang's heart.

In the end, those wonderful feelings came together into this sentence.

“It feels weird!”
