Is It Weird for a Guy to Apply to a Witch School?
Chapter 998: The Great Collapse of the Boyunis Earth Rift Resettlement Area
“Tsk A bunch of guys who don’t know much.”
After searching through these people’s memories, I opened my eyes and clicked my tongue in disdain.
The so-called big boss they mentioned wasn't the person directly in contact with them at all.
Instead, the tasks were taken by underlings layer by layer, and the information was just rumors they had gathered themselves.
They didn't even know if the other party was male or female.
They were only responsible for sealing off the entrance to this area, and if someone intruded, they were to report it immediately.
But now they could no longer send this information back.
After some thought, I took out a communication device from the only person whose corpse was still intact.
Then I opened my mouth and emitted a voice completely different from my own; it was the voice of the person called Boss.
Subsequently, following his memory, I sent the message back.
Using this person's voice, with a slightly fawning tone, the other party didn't suspect anything, just cursed a few times.
After all, the message I sent back said that someone came here and they let the person run away, unable to stop them even if they tried.
After saying this, I threw the communicator under my foot and crushed it.
Hmm... quite the villain vibe.
But regardless, the news that "someone came to this place" was barely considered transmitted.
As for what would happen next, that was unknown.
I continued deeper, no longer maintaining my previous appearance.
That appearance was just to prevent some tactless people from causing trouble.
Now that there was no one here, there was naturally no need to wrong myself.
As I went deeper, I played with a piece of material pixel worn off from the wall in my hand.
I had to say, this product under the influence of the permanent effect power of [Transcendent Knowledge] was definitely the biggest cheat in this world.
Such a massive underground city, completely disregarding issues like foundation and load-bearing, instead turned countless professional problems that needed refinement into the simplest stacking problem.
This reminded me again of what that Anti-Witch told me about the power of the Myriad Worlds Terminal and the major breakthrough issues in basic materials.
“Presumably you are that Calamity Witch who created the miracle of the Igsuo above-ground city, right?”
Just as I was playing with the material pixel to pass the time, a voice rang out.
From the voice alone, I located the other party's position.
Then that figure walked out from the dark place in a flamboyant manner.
My eyes narrowed slightly, discovering that what was in front of me was not a person, but... a game character.
“Oh? You are the current old geezer Monroe of the Truth Protection Association? Really cautious. Using a game character to meet me. This must be a Banned Account, right? Using such a strategic resource just to see me once, I feel deeply honored!”
As soon as I spoke, the other party was stunned, but he was also an Old Fritter, directly ignoring my address of "old geezer".
“To be able to meet the Calamity Witch, this is naturally worth it. It’s just that even I didn't expect you to be so fast. The distance from the Igsuo above-ground city to here... is not close.”
Monroe's tone revealed a confidence, but he was still very amazed at my efficiency in keeping the appointment.
“Isn't that because of this lousy place you chose? Since you are meeting in the form of a Banned Account, wouldn't it be more convenient for you to come directly to my Igsuo above-ground city? Moreover, managing that broken association of yours is really troublesome. Now it even needs to borrow my power to maintain this status quo.”
“Does Miss Calamity Witch mean... my association branch can no longer provide assistance to you?”
“A body so weak it can be pinched to death with one hand, a style so lazy it shirks responsibility everywhere, and a greed that wants everything. What kind of assistance can such a group of people give me?”
“That is truly regrettable.”
“Then I'll barely accept your apology. Next time, your attitude when apologizing should be better.”
I continued to respond.
It could be said that my responses were very nitpicking and fault-finding, and the arrogance and disparagement towards them in my tone were also vividly displayed.
This was not an accident; I was targeting him.
Although I didn't know what the other party was planning, I could feel that the material space here was a bit wrong.
It seemed that some special means had reinforced the space, making ordinary spatial spells difficult to cast.
Moreover... this technique felt somewhat familiar to me.
Just like the spatial blockade in the Qunluosen Wasteland before...
It was very much like a sorcery method.
Could it be an ambush?
But with my perception, I didn't find any hidden traces.
Even if this was just a clone, it shouldn't be to this extent, right?
“I wonder where I did poorly. This should be considered our first meeting, right? Miss Calamity Witch, your tone is as if I did something sorry to you. I admit this meeting is somewhat rash, but...”
“Wait a moment, old geezer...”
I interrupted him, gesturing for him to be quiet.
“I wonder what advice you have?”
Monroe, having lost face again and again, naturally had some anger.
“Listen.”
“Listen?”
Monroe looked confused.
As we fell silent, some unusual sounds echoed here.
That was the sound of the strata cracking.
Cracking sounds echoed in all directions with an extremely deep and horrifying posture.
Then my expression suddenly darkened.
Because the material pixel I was playing with in my hand just now faintly produced a fluctuation of some special power dissipation!
It should be known that this thing was produced by the Myriad Worlds Terminal completed with [Transcendent Knowledge], a power nearly at the same level as a Grand Spellbook.
The power of a Grand Spellbook was permanent and self-circulating.
This was a rule originating from the Void itself.
How could the phenomenon of power dissipation occur?
Not long after, I squeezed hard, and this square pixel was crushed by me.
But the broken pixel did not become finer pixel cubes, but became irregular dust!
Seeing this situation, my pupils contracted violently!
Before I could look up at Monroe in front of me, I felt the abnormality of gravity again, and my body sank subconsciously.
“Looks like you discovered it.”
Monroe's voice came, with a hint of smugness in his tone.
But before the other party could continue speaking, a powerful abnormal gravity field instantly crushed the area I was in!
Accompanied by an earth-shattering collapse, and the screams and wails of countless people...
The prelude to the first large-scale underground city collapse in the Game World began.
Countless dust rose.
Countless structures collapsed.
Countless screams and wails!
One side of the Boyunis Earth Rift Resettlement Area pressed down at this moment like the sky falling.
Under a vertically shrouded abnormal gravity field, countless heavy objects pressed down with a posture of absolutely no survival.
Even the peripheral area of the Gantang above-ground city on one side sank with it.
The continental vibration caused by the huge accident even made the residents of the above-ground city think a major earthquake had occurred!
But after the vibration occurred, everyone found that the houses they lived in showed no signs of collapse or cracking, and big-heartedly thought it was fine.
After all, people lacking a certain degree of common sense transactions were not even very clear about the concept of an earthquake.
Even some teachings said that if encountering danger, hide in one's own house, after all, the houses they lived in were indestructible.
The common sense of a world often also dominated the reaction of the people of a world to emergencies.
Perhaps the residents living in the Gantang above-ground city might not even know that a large-scale underground city collapse had occurred in the underdeveloped zone on the edge of their city.
At this moment, in the night sky.
Several figures floated in the night without any support.
They watched the wailing below as if admiring a grand performance art.
“Presumably that Calamity Witch didn't expect to end up this way until her death, right?”
“We arranged for so long, and finally we can see a grand finale ritual. That little witch having so many people buried with her can be considered worth it.”
“Indeed worth it!”
“In this case, we can be considered to have completed the mission, right?”
“Really easy! I've already started thinking about how to choose the site for my Wizard Tower. That's the Main World!”
Just from their conversation, it could be understood that the ones causing all this were exactly them.
And these few people were exactly those Wizard Apprentices still remaining in the Game World.
From their conversation, it seemed they hadn't received messages from the Main World yet, and even more so, didn't understand that in the Game World, the little witch they "hunted" was just a clone.
“This operation was still too hasty. Didn't expect that little witch to come so fast.”
“So what? Isn't this just rushing over to die?”
“By the way, could the other party still be alive?”
A Wizard Apprentice spoke cautiously.
“Relax! Didn't you see the information about that little witch? The other party has only been in contact with the Transcendent for two years. She doesn't have Undying Nature. How could there be any reason for her to be alive after being buried alive like this?”
“Exactly! Was my Super Gravity Field Sorcery Formation set up for nothing?”
“My Spatial Blockade Sorcery Formation was also an assist, right? It definitely made her unable to use spatial spells to teleport out. I can already imagine how desperate that little witch was facing this level of collapse, unable to teleport out! Heh Heh Heh Heh!”
These Wizards, one after another, shook out all their arrangements, treating these as capital for contribution and conversation material.
And the reason they could cause such a large-scale collapse was also related to the permissions temporarily granted by the Supreme Council.
They activated the function of the Building Demolitionist, a branch of the Architect profession, giving them the permission to remove the characteristics of building materials.
Finally, creating this sensational collapse of an entire underground city!
After the Calamity Witch demonstrated the ability to threaten the Supreme Council time and again, the councilors of the Supreme Council naturally recognized how terrifying the other party was!
From the initial powerful combat power, to the act of occupying the Igsuo above-ground city, and then the strange means that could evaporate characters along with players.
Finally, the straw that broke the camel's back was the Calamity Witch invading the Myriad Worlds Terminal!
Forcibly occupying their supreme permissions!
They had to think of every possible way to kill this Calamity Witch!
Finally, under the negotiation of these Wizard Apprentices, this extremely cruel plan was born.
The Supreme Council had completely stopped treating those people at the bottom as humans.
For them, their foundation was the above-ground cities and high-end, top-tier game talents.
Those other people were just rice weevils wasting their food to pacify them, to avoid riots!
Admittedly, the Chaotic Areas and resettlement areas would occasionally give birth to some talented geniuses, but these geniuses could not change the local nature and value of these areas.
In the Game World, the least lacking thing was people!
What they plundered most was Soul-substance, and precisely because of this, the population of their world exploded.
Periodic population clearing was also necessary.
Yes... a short sentence "population clearing is also necessary" decided the life and death of countless people at the bottom.
Absolute power, absolute authority, absolute status, endowed the Supreme Council with absolute authority that could not be defied.
They even had the ability to erase the major accident that happened in the Boyunis Earth Rift Resettlement Area from this world.
Absolute control of public opinion and network information gave them such confidence.
“By the way, what was the name of that guy we saved?”
“Monroe, the President of the Truth Protection Association.”
“Right, that guy. He has no value anymore, right? How about we kill him?”
“Keep him, he's still useful. The Truth Protection Association can well control most of the idle resistance forces in this world, keeping them under our noses forever. Didn't we decide to let that guy become a dog under a certain councilor already? Killing him would worsen our relationship with the Supreme Council. He is still very useful.”
“What a pity.”
“Not a pity. Let's go, wrap things up! Find that little witch's corpse. At least we need to see her die with our own eyes.”
“Is that necessary?”
A Wizard Apprentice said indifferently.
“Being cautious is never wrong. Record it. When we get to the Main World, we can also have direct evidence to prove we completed the mission bounty, saving some subsequent wrangling. It concerns our Wizard Tower after advancing to Transcendent. What... is this not enough for you to be cautious once?”
“True, don't forget, what we want is A Death That Cannot Be Resurrected for that little witch, not even with a Resurrection Spell.”
***
Meanwhile, In an above-ground city adjacent to the Igsuo above-ground city, in an inconspicuous peripheral area.
Among a cluster of inconspicuous dense housing.
Monroe looked in terror through the transparent display area of the head-mounted game terminal device at the young girl who lifted him up.
Terrified words reached his lips but he couldn't say a single word.
He wanted to shout for help in terror, but it was the same.
“This is our first meeting, old geezer.”
I stared into Monroe's eyes, my gaze full of mockery.
Coming before me in the posture of a game player, who gave you the confidence?
“Calling you an old geezer, you really are one... At first, I thought that as the spiritual leader of the Truth Protection Association, you would be that kind of great person who emerged as the times required.”
“But... you really are not worthy.”
After sighing with emotion, I didn't give the other party any chance to quibble.
All defenses would be handed over to his memory.
This wouldn't go wrong.
If it really went wrong, at worst just resurrect him again.
After shallowly contacting his memory, I suddenly opened my eyes.
Because I discovered this guy... couldn't die yet, at least this identity couldn't die.
Didn't expect this person actually had Transcendent worship and became a dog of the Wizard Apprentices... hehe.
However, looking at Monroe lying on the ground completely motionless... I felt it would be more convenient for me to use the Disguise Technique myself.
After all... I was also "dead", right?
