Chapter 38: Seal Objects

Hearing the prayer, Chen Zhi felt a bit excited; these players were actually alright, they had even managed to remember him.

Since that was the case, the cleaning money definitely had to be handed out, even if they had basically done no work all afternoon.

Very quickly, Chen Zhi saw the passage laid out before him, and at a single glance, he saw that red gallows.

Would there be a problem?

Chen Zhi answered himself in his heart.

But then he thought, if he didn't take a few risks, and the players offered up all sorts of strange things in the future, was he just going to ignore them all?

Sooner or later, this would happen anyway; if there was danger, it was better to avoid it early.

Besides, he was an Evil God, after all; could he really be afraid of that Red Moon Goddess who couldn't even get out?

Thinking of this, he reached out a hand and took the red gallows into his grasp.

"It really works!" Luolita looked at the few players excitedly, "Let's hurry and get out too, so we don't get discovered."

"I wonder if that Calamity God we worship can give us some rewards."

"Exactly, it's a good item, right?"

The few players strolled downstairs and climbed out through the restroom window once again.

At this moment, the Red Tide inside the Municipal Building finally receded along with the disappearance of the gallows.

The sky had turned dark, and Feng Bu'er let out a sigh of relief, saying calmly, "It's fine now, we can go in and take a look."

Carrying the Golden Foil Paper capable of isolating damage, two teams of Gold Ties entered the hall; pale golden powder began to drift in the hall again, and those powders almost swarmed toward the top floor.

"It's right at the top! Hurry!" Feng walked quickly to the open door and saw the witch who had completely turned into a dried corpse.

If he remembered correctly, that was the exact clothing the witch had been wearing.

Had she already died? Because the Curse failed?

He didn't see the item used for the Curse; what exactly happened to her?

"Cover the body first, then carry it out. I will contact headquarters and ask the Bishop what the problem was."

"Captain, there are already some Reporters waiting outside; after all, we made quite a commotion."

"There were no casualties. Tell them we have caught the Evil God's Believer and have already executed them," Feng Bu'er said in a somewhat relaxed tone.

It was fortunate that there was no one inside the office building.

It seemed he would have to properly thank Mr. Jones; if not for his wise decision, he would be in a complete mess right now.

Returning to the players, Li You was extremely excited; he spoke of the thrill of the first sacrifice with a voice full of agitation.

"A giant, long hand, covered in scales, and then it reached out and took the gallows away," Li You gestured as he spoke, "If only Ai Ai were here, at least she could draw it."

"The special effects inside were also done really well; I feel like it was even more badass than the explosion those players saw during the day," his two good brothers were also describing what they had just seen to others.

Mengmeng and Mengmeng hugged each other, imagining the scene Li You had just witnessed.

Just thinking about it made them feel a chill all over, but why did it feel kind of cool?

"Don't be afraid, it's just some Red Tide; it'll be fine once our levels go up. Besides, they'll definitely give us some special magic treasures or something later on."

"Those aren't called magic treasures, right? They should be called Seal Objects," the players chattered, and some even hoped to craft Seal Objects themselves.

Regardless of how it was done, as long as there was a production process, there would definitely be a bunch of players grinding for Seal Objects.

This actually reminded Chen Zhi; no matter how much garbled data was in the brain of the foolish Lord of Calamity, there had to be one or two Seal Objects, right?

Thinking of this, he used one of his hands to put away the gallows; the gripped gallows changed from its original dim glow to a listless, withered-branch appearance, but Chen Zhi didn't notice that change at all.

His attention was focused on his own mind, and he began to search for information regarding things like Seal Objects.

And it had to be said, there was indeed some solid stuff in Calamity's brain, especially since this guy was particularly experienced with Curses.

It could be said that the fact he had just blessed that witch already explained a lot of things.

It seemed her failure had something to do with him as well.

Chen Zhi reached out a hand and touched his messy hairstyle.

What Calamity was best at making was using the leaves of a tree called the Blood Maple Tree to craft a Bookmark called the Cursed Eye.

This kind of thing was easy to make, the materials didn't seem very difficult, and ordinary people could trigger it too.

One only needed to use the appropriate incantation.

Furthermore, he also found some of the most basic Amulets and such; there were necklaces that brought misfortune, bracelets that brought misfortune, brooches that brought misfortune, and so on.

Just thinking about it, it didn't seem like there would be any market for them.

If one wanted to throw them at others to cause them trouble, one first had to ensure that one wasn't plagued by misfortune oneself.

He would find two players to test it out later.

Thinking this, Chen Zhi stopped paying attention to Calamity's brain and turned his focus back to the players.

At this time, Bulu, standing in front of Li You, smiled and took out a bag of coins; it was a reward even greater than the one during the day, which, in the Captain's words, was the reward these strange outsiders deserved.

"You helped a great deal. Our teammates have already checked; if not for you taking the initiative to use shovels to block that guy, I'm afraid the people in the building wouldn't have been able to evacuate so quickly. If she had succeeded, the consequences would have been unimaginable," Bulu praised the players, "This is your reward."

The players cheered excitedly, and Bulu pressed his hand down, continuing, "Your courage has been seen by us. During the day, one of your members was already recruited by the Wealth Church as our peripheral member. Believe us, being our peripheral member is definitely much more worthwhile than being a serf or working for others."

The players continued to cheer for a moment; although everyone was happy to receive recognition from the NPCs, the fact that only one person had become a peripheral member despite so many people during the day made the players feel a bit unenthusiastic.

Immediately after, Bulu said again, "Your performance has also been seen by the people of the War Church. If any of you want to become a Warrior of Tana City, the War Church will give you double the wages. Believe me, that is definitely a worthwhile deal."

Seeing the players begin to ponder, Bulu didn't say anything more; in any case, he was just a messenger, and as for whether these people would listen, that was not a problem he needed to consider.

Those people were willing to risk their lives, likely for the money of the Wealth Church.

Become a Warrior? Chen Zhi, sitting in the Sewers, began to think; otherwise, when the second closed beta arrived, he would just send these guys to the War Church.
