Ecological Research Institute.

On the path leading to 91st District.

A necromancer with a cold expression was walking briskly.

On both sides of the road are experimental fields that exude Negative Energy.

The field contains bone seedlings, sand trays, and various miniature monsters.

When passing by the fields.

The Corpse Servant working in the fields would then pay him a respectful look.

Their eyes were vacant, and their movements were stiff.

Its only advantage is that it is cheap and durable.

These undead beings with limited brain capacity were ignored.

Roger arrived at the border of 91st District without any obstacles.

The area ahead is where the Thunder Dragon roams.

But at this time.

He involuntarily stopped in his tracks.

His field of vision came into view a large number of Bone Fence and wooden houses.

Compared to other areas within the research institute.

The boundaries of 91st District are heavily guarded, and entry and exit checks are very strict.

Roger stood and watched for a while.

He saw a necromancer walk into the sentry post, and only after going through an extremely complicated verification process was he able to enter successfully.

"It is Negative Energy Mark."

His heart skipped a beat.

This is not something a "Trick Master" can impersonate.

Only two paths remained before him.

First, remember the route, then go back and let the Woodpecker continue digging until they dig a tunnel that leads to 91st District.

This approach has many drawbacks.

On the one hand, it requires a long time, and time means variables.

On the other hand, the probability of being discovered when drilling in the core area of the research institute is much higher than in the peripheral area.

Once discovered, direct confrontation becomes the only way to resolve the issue.

Roger was confident in his and the Quasi-Horned Demon ' fighting abilities, but head-on combat inevitably resulted in casualties.

In the early stages, any damage to a contracted creature is a serious blow to the contractor.

Roger would not confront the necromancers head-on unless absolutely necessary.

The second method involves using an "Invisibility Cloak" to infiltrate.

The Shadow Cloak does indeed have the effect of concealing one's presence.

But the Bone Fence is covered with Ghostfire —this level of light would greatly diminish the effect of the Shadow Cloak.

In comparison.

The second option seems to be a better approach.

But for some reason, Roger was somewhat resistant to the Invisibility Cloak.

He, who is usually decisive, hesitated for almost a minute, which is rare.

Reluctantly, he found a secluded corner and took off all his clothes.

Then he took out the Invisibility Cloak and put it on himself.

"Tsk..."

"So tight!"

"What a strange feeling."

Roger felt his heart beating faster.

The invisibility effect of the Invisibility Cloak can only be activated when "only this item is worn".

So he walked barefoot on the cold, gray earth.

Occasionally, you might step on bone fragments or something.

It's chilly.

It feels awful.

He suppressed all sorts of strange thoughts and flew to a Bone Fence where there were fewer will-o'-the -Ghostfire. Then, he pushed off with his toes! Ladder Cloud Steps! He leaped high into the air and landed gently.

The next second, he silently arrived inside 91st District.

"They're in."

Roger breathed a sigh of relief.

He observed the situation inside 91st District while glancing at the data panel.

"You seem to have unlocked some unusual hobby; you've reached a new milestone: Cross-dressing."

"You have gained 1 Milestone Points."

"Cross-dressing: Being different is not a mistake; only by shedding all impurities can one reveal their true self."

"Corresponding title: Cross-dressing Master (Charm +1 when you are dressed as a woman)"

"Damn it!"

Roger's face darkened.

Gritting his teeth, he ventured deeper into 91st District.

Just while traveling.

He felt that the Invisibility Cloak he was wearing had tightened even more.

As the core area of Ecological Research Institute.

91st District is not a large area.

Beyond the outer area's Negative Energy Experiment Field and a few isolated Warehouse, the central area is where the necromancers imprison the Thunder Dragon.

It was a huge magic sandbox.

The sand table depicts a lush, Primitive Forest.

Every now and then, a Corpse Servant would come over with a sprinkler and water the sand table as if watering flowers, thus simulating the effect of a torrential downpour.

The male Thunder Dragon, fighting in the shrunken world, were completely unaware of this.

They are still engrossed in the turf war.

Roger observed the sand table for a while.

The Qi Divination Technique revealed this.

The "Malicious Shrinking Spell" has been implanted in all of the brothers.

The effect of this spell is to shrink the target's size by 50 times.

This discovery gave Roger a different idea.

"Malicious Shrinking Spell" is not "True Shrinking Spell".

The difference between the two is that...

The True Shrinking Spell can kill an opponent by striking them after they have shrunk in size.

But Malicious Shrinking Spell won't work.

For example.

A person who is True Shrinking Spell will be slapped to death.

However, if someone is affected by the Malicious Shrinking Spell, a slap will actually remove the spell's effect, and the damage will be just an ordinary slap.

in other words.

Roger only needed to do a few simple things to the sand table.

The roars of the Thunder Dragon will echo throughout the Ecological Research Institute! The necromancers of Greyrock City practice the Evil Curse.

Fresh human skin is their favorite material, making them birds of a feather with the Corpse Demon.

At the same time, they also have their eyes on the Paramount Manor.

Roger could easily trick a guy like that without any qualms.

But the reason he hasn't taken action yet is—

Where are my eggs?

He walked around the sand table three or four times, but still couldn't find the mini dragon egg he had seen earlier.

On the contrary, the invisibility cloak on his body seemed to be tightening even more.

Roger began to get agitated.

Fortunately, at this moment...

Two necromancers dressed in standard robes walked over hurriedly.

"Breaking news from Greyrock City: I've heard that a remarkable Martial Artist has recently arrived at the Paramount Manor."

"If he's a genuine Martial Artist, then we should indeed be careful. But that's probably just another of Alan's tricks. Remember that ' Extraordinary Martial Monk ' from last year? Greyrock City was so scared that they sent people to verify him overnight, only to find out he was a fraud."

"Alan is indeed cunning. Until we make further progress in Monster Domination Art, war will be of no advantage to us."

"Yes, that's what I think too... By the way, a new batch of Monster Egg is ready and can be transported away at any time."

"I see..."

The sound of their footsteps gradually faded into the distance.

"Transport?"

Roger's gaze swept back and forth between the buildings in 91st District.

They quickly narrowed it down to those Warehouse.

A moment later.

In the corner of a Warehouse.

Roger struggled to remove the Invisibility Cloak—

He increasingly felt that there was something wrong with the clothes; if he wore them for a long time, he might not be able to take them off, and they might even cause some strange changes in people!

He shook his head, putting these strange thoughts aside, and focused on observing the dragon eggs in the Warehouse.

There are at least 200 dragon eggs here! But many of them have lost their vitality due to the corruption of Negative Energy, so it's uncertain whether we can still get the Sin Mark.

Roger pondered for a moment and decided not to let any of them escape! He walked quickly among the dragon eggs.

Every so often, he would bend down and place a fire-attribute Hand Tumor Bomb.

They were placed all the way to the edge of the Warehouse.

He wrapped a thin green thread around the last Hand Tumor Bomb.

This is "Jungle Floss" soaked in turtle oil.

It is very suitable for making fuses for Hand Tumor Bomb.

Roger tiptoed around to the back of the Warehouse, pulled the fuse about thirty meters away, and finally stopped.

If we go any further, we'll easily be discovered by the Corpse Servant.

"At this distance, it should be more than enough to overturn the defensive shield on the sand table."

With that thought in mind, he decisively lit the Jungle Floss in his hand.

Then he fled as fast as he could!

Without the cover of the Invisibility Cloak, Roger's whereabouts were quickly discovered.

When he used the Ladder Cloud Steps to smoothly leap over the Bone Fence and run outwards.

Shouts came from behind.

A large amount of Negative Energy was rapidly gathered.

The Corpse Servant in front also noticed the anomaly, and one by one they bared their ferocious fangs and pounced forward.

Unfortunately, Roger simply tapped his toes lightly and flew over their foreheads.

The next second.

A violent explosion was heard from the Warehouse in 91st District.

The powerful blast wave overturned all the buildings, including the model.

Immediately afterwards, a towering wave of fire swept across every corner of the area! The entire Ecological Research Institute was alarmed! The necromancers and their Corpse Servant stared in bewilderment.

One after another, monsters five or six meters tall emerged from the Big Fire!

Flames and lightning crackled around them as they rampaged through the Ecological Research Institute, attacking anyone in their path! Boom! The sound of the area defense shield shattering echoed one after another.

All sorts of strange cries followed.

More and more monsters are freed from the "Malicious Shrinking Spell" and are putting on their own show on this chaotic stage.

Very soon.

The sound of crackling could also be heard from the experimental field.

That was the sound of Phosphorus Ash being ignited.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Flames, some red and some green, shot into the sky like fireworks.

Amidst the roars of the monsters.

The Big Fire spread uncontrollably to every part of the canyon.

The entire Ecological Research Institute was thrown into complete chaos!

"You have killed 1 Thunder Dragon, bringing your total number of Thunder Dragon kills to 186. Your milestone Egg Breaker Expert has been broken..."

You have gained 4 XP points.

"You have gained a small amount of attack effect: Lightning".

"You've achieved a new milestone by successfully starting a Big Fire killed hundreds: Arsonist."

"You have gained 1 Milestone Points."

Arsonist: There are only two kinds of arsonists: zero times or countless times.

"Corresponding title: Flame Maniac (You are always prone to Accidental Discharge; wherever you go and whatever you come into contact with is likely to cause a fire; Fire Element series life recognition +50)"

Hiding in the underground passage, Roger silently watched the two new milestones he had acquired.

My heart was filled with mixed feelings.

The update schedule will be a little irregular these next couple of days, but I will definitely maintain a consistent double update schedule. Having a bad cold is really awful.
