The evil witch BOSS just wants to develop in a low profile

"Hmm... quite the rewarding haul!"

Using the [Pyromaniac]'s skeletal fire within the fireplace, Zorn inventoried his gains from this venture.

First and foremost were the smuggling evidences sufficient to put 'Baron Brinn' behind bars for life, along with evidence of his collaboration with an evil god organization.

However, this Baron Brinn, feared even by a level two [Pyromaniac], was an exceptionally powerful Transcendent.

Without sufficient strength for capture, Baron Brinn would undoubtedly escape.

Undeniably, he was a very difficult fellow to deal with.

Such a formidable character was beyond Zorn's current capabilities to confront head-on.

The Bay Area docks were the core of intertwined interests, the waters here ran deep!

Zorn understood this better than anyone.

Therefore, Zorn planned to hand over the evidence to his police precinct friends.

The precinct would then take over.

Zorn believed that Ansel Hall, a law enforcer filled with a sense of justice and responsibility, would bring the villainous Baron Brinn to justice.

Although the process would involve many obstacles and dangers.

But, to gain greater honor, master stronger powers, and even wield the authority of the precinct's order.

Some price must be paid, mustn't it?

In O'Glan City, there were many enemies.

Not every enemy required Zorn's direct intervention.

The friends Zorn made could also play a significant role.

If Ansel Hall handled it well.

Leveraging the power of the municipal police and the church, they could absolutely crush that Baron Brinn to ashes.

Besides the evidence.

There was also a large amount of paper currency, mainly in denominations of 1, 2, and 5 gold pounds.

Totaling 1646 gold pounds.

This fortune was enough to cover the embezzled dividends of the Corrick family for the past six months, with even some left over.

And this was just the interest.

The real treasure lay in the dock warehouse.

After carefully stowing away these items.

Zorn glanced at the Pyromaniac burning in the fireplace.

He began to organize all the information and results regarding today's dual-sequence experiment.

During the day, when he was guiding Miss Jolia and having her do things.

Zorn had already sniffed out some clues.

He needed more samples to confirm the results.

Previously in the tavern, his control over the two Mafia thugs prompted them to carry out orders.

And now, wielding the [Pyromaniac] and making it reveal important confidential information.

After repeated tests on multiple targets.

Zorn had arrived at precise results.

The Evil Spirit Warlock, using the power of 'Evil Spirit Authority' to control enemies, could not obtain 'Source Material'.

However, the Pugilist, using 'Abilities' judged as 'Combat', could obtain 'Source Material'.

Now that the two major sequences were intertwined.

It became that the [Evil Spirit Warlock] sequence uses 'Evil Spirit Authority' to acquire followers and drive them.

This ability was judged as 'Combat' by the [Pugilist] sequence.

Then Zorn obtained a steady stream of 'Pugilist Source Material'.

And this 'Pugilist Source Material' was absorbed by the dual sequences, becoming nourishment for the overall sequence.

Both major sequences benefited from it.

Relying on this strange BUG, the system operated so efficiently.

"Huff... breath..."

Zorn, taking a deep breath, suppressed his restless emotions.

With this result confirmed, the operational space was far too vast.

Zorn rapidly exercised his imagination.

"I can recruit workers to work for me through the steam factory, to conceal the power of the evil god, and... I can use the power of [Authority] to influence the workers' loyalty and faith in the steam factory enterprise."

"This way, my [Evil Spirit Authority] is passively triggered, and at the [Pugilist] level, it's me 'fighting' with a large number of ordinary people, which will have a constant stream of gains."

"This is much better than the [Evil Spirit Warlock]'s enslavement, exploitation, and imprisonment effects."

"And this doesn't delay the [Evil Spirit Warlock]'s own characteristics from being brought into play."

"Combining the two aspects, it's definitely one part of effort for five, six, or even seven or eight parts of gain."

"Those workers, while receiving more pay from my factory, only need to pay a small price, the price of believing in me."

"This will be a fair trade!"

What, you say that faith in the steam factory is the bewitchment of an evil god?

Sorry, sir, this is our company's unique corporate culture!

"So..."

Zorn slightly stretched his torso.

"I need to make 'Spiritual Statues' so that I can better exert the power of my [Authority]."

"Although 'Spiritual Statues' don't require massive materials like 'Miracle Statues'."

"They still require considerable materials."

"I hope the upcoming Transcendent exchange meeting will have some of the things I need."

Slowly withdrawing his mind from the conception of future plans.

Zorn looked at the completely carbonized remains of the [Pyromaniac].

He opened his palm, and a hazy, pale, and somewhat distorted 'soul' was slowly drawn out from the remains.

The newborn soul was weak and bewildered, fearing Zorn.

Regardless of its life, after death, it would be the 'food' of the Evil Spirit Warlock.

The abundant spirituality in the soul seemed to whet Zorn's appetite.

But Zorn controlled his greed for 'spirituality' very well.

He manipulated the 'soul' to inject it into the fiery red 'sequence crystal core' on the [Pyromaniac]'s remains.

Soon, a 'Spiritual Sequence Crystal Core' was born.

And this was one of the materials for 'Spiritual Statues'.

After storing these things and preparing himself, Zorn put on his raincoat and stepped into the deep, dark rain.

The latest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Jiu Shu Ba!

Accompanied by the rumble of thunder.

Soon, Zorn arrived at the dock warehouse where the smuggled goods [Blood-Veined Coral] were hidden.

Four gang members on the night shift were drowsily dozing off.

They didn't even notice Zorn approaching in the rain.

There was a considerable number of people stationed here, and it was not far from the Sweetheart Vegetable Tavern, so reinforcements could arrive quickly if anything happened.

Too bad!

They were facing Zorn, the Evil Spirit Warlock Zorn Corrick who could bewitch people and control souls.

Using [Evil Spirit Authority], Zorn successfully captured four devout followers.

Opening the warehouse door and entering it.

Zorn began the arrangement of the sacrificial ritual.

There was a large quantity of this batch of smuggled goods, [Blood-Veined Coral], at least loaded in seven or eight boxes.

It was impossible for Zorn to take them all away alone.

Even if he could take them all away, Zorn wouldn't do so, as that would only cause trouble for himself.

But if he directly sacrificed them using the ritual, there would be no trace to be found.

That damned evil spirit stole the smuggled goods, what does it have to do with me, Zorn.

Under the cover of the [Pugilist], the traces left by the [Evil Spirit Warlock] were only a weak 'evil spirit'.

Moreover, the evil spirits in O'Glan City that shared the same origin as Zorn were far more than just Zorn.

Want to investigate?

Take your time.

Moreover, soon that Baron Brinn himself would be plunged into crisis, with no time or energy to investigate at all.

Four Mafia members pried open the boxes and continuously carried over pieces of [Blood-Veined Coral].

Zorn then performed the sacrifice again and again, sacrificing all these spiritual source material sacrifices to the 'Hidden Source Land' he had anchored.

Of course, Zorn could also sacrifice these sacrifices to his birthplace, the 'Calamity Source Land'.

However, Zorn had not yet constructed his own 'spiritual domain' in the Calamity Source Land.

Once sacrificed there, if other evil spirits noticed, Zorn would be working for nothing.

As these resources were continuously sacrificed and consumed.

The abundant spirituality gathered together, like a vast ocean of spiritual source material.

Such abundant resources caused Zorn's mind to be slightly stirred, this was indeed a huge windfall.

"At least 30,000 gold pounds, or even 40,000 gold pounds worth of resources."

"Such a large batch of sacrifices, carefully digested, is enough for my dual sequences to advance to level two, and there will even be some left over."

"Soon... O'Glan City will usher in its own wave of Transcendent power, and a terrifying calamity storm."

"Many Transcendent will also appear on the stage."

"The evil spirits are also ready to make a move."

"After advancing to level two, I will be better able to resist this terrible storm and wave, and even draw nourishment from it."

"And this sacrificial ritual will also be a telling gift to the evil spirits!"

"It is also the beginning of me engraving the first stigma in O'Glan City!"

Nearing the second half of the night, Zorn completed the final ritual.

And the sacrifices for the final ritual were four Mafia members.

They knelt devoutly before the small table altar, offering their lives and souls.

Regardless of whether Zorn let them go, their deaths were already destined.

Rather than leaving traces for the enemy to investigate, it was better to handle it cleanly himself.

"Crack~~cha~~"

"Boom... rumble... rumble..."

Purple lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating the cold face hidden under the knitted hat and raincoat in the rain.

Then, the sound of thunder rumbled and echoed in the deep, vast, drifting rain.

Zorn, while moving forward, used the power of [Forbidden Weaving] to interfere with the traces being detected.

Before, Zorn didn't dare to act easily, mainly because the [Pugilist] didn't have a good means of isolating detection.

But for the first world-class big BOSS [Evil Spirit Warlock].

His existence itself was naturally pollution and interference, extremely difficult to be detected.

Using the power of [Forbidden Weaving] to erase the traces would be a perfect elimination.

As the rain washed away the last trace, Zorn also disappeared into the depths of the dark rain alley.
