Chapter 36: Truly Unlucky

The rat itself was also very bewildered; it just wanted to find a place to give birth, and the abandoned Sewers were just right.

But there was human activity here; for a rat, humans are the culprits who exterminate them, and for a mother rat about to give birth, humans are even more heinous!

"Damn rat." Agnes hurriedly stood up from the ground; she was almost at the exit, and she would soon be able to reach the Municipal Building.

Her final preparations were there, and as long as she succeeded, she could become the Container for the god's descent!

The rat that Agnes had poisoned was not as fragile as the players; living in such a filthy environment meant it possessed a certain drug resistance, and this mother rat did, after all, bite Agnes before it died.

Agnes stomped the rat that was biting her to death, then quickly sliced open her own flesh with a knife, and without even bandaging it, she quickly climbed the ladder.

Pale golden powder slowly drifted into the sky.

The smell of blood was far too strong, and these powders soon concentrated near Agnes.

"Those guys from the Wealth Church again, truly annoying." Agnes looked at the street lamp by the road and vanished in a flash; those gold powders drifted about in confusion once more, concentrating only on the parts of the ground with bloodstains.

Agnes revealed a contemptuous smile; how could she be tracked so easily? But by the time she was tracked, the entire Tana City would be affected by the goddess's descent.

Just as Agnes snuck into the Municipal Building, Mr. Jones, who had already moved far away from the City Center, turned his head and saw the golden powder drifting near the Municipal Building.

Without a doubt, the people from the Golden Church had already tracked her here, which meant there might indeed be traps inside the Municipal Building, and that witch was very likely in the Municipal Building.

Fortunately, they withdrew in time; he looked at his daughter with satisfaction, not expecting that at a critical moment, it was his eldest daughter, whom he looked down upon the most, who gave him an important reminder.

"You did well, and it was unexpected to me," Mr. Jones continued, "but don't be proud; that witch performed a sacrificial Ritual in your Nongzhuang, so you must not make such mistakes again in the future."

Saina was stunned for a moment, and with somewhat vacant eyes, she said yes.

Unexpectedly, there really was a problem at the Municipal Building; that witch, she wouldn't be detrimental to the Lord of Calamity, would she?

No, that witch clearly wouldn't be a match for the Evil God; it would be better for her not to overthink it.

Several online players logged off to report the situation, and then, holding tools, they all scurried out of the Sewers one by one.

If you don't watch the excitement now, when would you watch it?

Those players who didn't work properly and watched the excitement in the Factory District, which one of them didn't make a fortune?

Chen Zhi didn't intend to stop them either, as he also hoped to see the perspectives of those players.

Especially since he didn't want anything to happen above his head that would affect him.

"Huh, it's those deaf-mutes dressed like that again." Bulu's tone was not that surprised, "Are these guys some kind of deaf-mute organization? Their speed is quite fast."

"No, they just don't speak our language here; who knows which serfs were trafficked in from outside." Feng Bu'er shook his head, "Regardless, they did us a big favor; it seems that witch is near the Municipal Building, and very likely has already entered the Municipal Building."

"I cannot smash the Municipal Building; there are still many officials inside, and even if I dared, you probably couldn't afford to offend those noble lords." Meng En, wearing red armor, declined, "I can only lead the guards to stand guard in the surrounding area."

Meng En Pajite is an Awakened of the Red Anthem of the War Church, and also the team leader sent by the War Church this time to support the Gold Ties.

Feng smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have already received notice that Mr. Jones has already taken most of the Municipal Hall staff to the Rose Manor; although many people feel it is an unnecessary move, I have to say, this time this gentleman really did quite well."

"Also, Ms. Harriet, I'm afraid I still have to borrow the Softening Potion." Feng Bu'er said humbly to the lady behind him wearing a teacher's dress.

"You may, but it is not cheap." Harriet Badley is a Bishop of the Wisdom Church; in the Wisdom Church, theological personnel are already Awakened, and there is no need to additionally recruit special squads responsible for executing missions.

How could the Wealth Church be short of money? No matter the cost, the Gold Ties must catch this witch quickly, otherwise, whether Tana City can continue to be managed by the Wealth Church in more areas is uncertain.

If it were inside the kingdom, he probably wouldn't have to worry about anything; most cities are areas divided under the communication of high-level church officials.

But in Tana City, the Wealth Church is the undisputed number one church, even though the people here mostly have different beliefs.

If this honor were lost, what would face Feng Bu'er would be hard to say.

He gave Ms. Harriet Badley a bag of money and then took the whole bottle of potion.

Subsequently, Harriet gave a word of caution, "Be careful, even if there is an antidote for this thing, smelling too much is not a good thing; it will have a certain impact on the body."

"I know." Feng walked forward quickly, glancing at the chattering players on the side.

The overwhelming gold powder had already pointed out the witch's whereabouts; even if she used Mirror Jump, it would be useless. As long as there are bloodstains, the effect of the tracking powder is greater than usual.

The players watched as the Gold Ties poured out in full force and all entered the interior of the Municipal Hall, hesitating whether to follow them in.

Agnes, who entered the Municipal Hall, had a very bad complexion; it was not just because of the signs of poisoning after being bitten, but also because the Mirror she had set up in the Municipal Hall had been taken away.

Damn it, she could only jump out through the glass of the Municipal Hall; in this way, her tracks would be very easily discovered by others.

This luck is truly a bit too poor.

She staggered forward two steps, arrived at the place she had set up in advance, and began the final step of the Curse descent.

If one were to ask where in the entire Tana City the popularity is the highest and most prosperous, it certainly wouldn't be the Municipal Hall.

But if one were to ask where in Tana City the people are in the best physical condition and healthiest, it would undoubtedly be the people inside the Municipal Hall.

The people here are different from those poor people who are not fed or clothed well; even the lowest-level gatekeeper has a pot-bellied appearance, which is excellent material for a Curse.

Agnes quickly took out the blood-stained Red Gallows from the cleaning room; she wanted to Curse everyone in the entire City Hall so that the goddess could enter her body.
