Chapter 172 Why is it dark?



"Hmph, you better be telling the truth. If Miss Ouyang doesn't come, you're dead."

The base commander, whose two hands couldn't even make ten fingers, looked at the boy in front of him with disdain and said...

"No...no, I know her, she's very protective of her own."

Startled by the Eight Fingers Base Chief's words, the boy took two steps back and almost sat down on the ground in fright.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Perhaps seeing the boy's current behavior, the Eight Fingers Base Chief patted the armrest of the sofa beneath him and laughed heartily.

The fear of others!

This is a symbol of authority!

'Delicious food' that only those in positions of power are entitled to enjoy!

The Eight Fingers Base Chief was thoroughly enjoying the boy's retreating steps.

This made him truly feel like he was in a superior position!

Before the monsters descended, he was nothing more than a street thug who had just been released from prison.

To talk about how he made his fortune, we have to start from the day he was born.

Compared to others, he got the opportunity to change jobs first, and thus gradually rose to prominence in the resort.

Of course.

This doesn't mean that he's better than others just because he's ahead of them; after all, being first is just a matter of order.

If that's the case, then wouldn't Ouyang Qianjin, the first one to change jobs, become the most powerful person in the world?

Well……

Okay, although Ouyang Qianjin is indeed number one on both lists now.

We've gone off on a tangent.

The reason why the Eight-Finger Base Chief can act so arrogantly in this resort is because he has obtained a hidden profession that very few people can obtain.

Otherwise, how could a brainless guy with two fingers chopped off become the base commander?

"Base Commander!"

Just as the Eight Fingers Base Commander was enjoying the feeling of being superior with his eyes closed, a gasp came from outside.

"What's going on? Didn't I tell you to stay calm in the face of trouble? How can you follow me like this!"

The Eight Fingers Base Chief expressed his displeasure at being interrupted while he was enjoying the afterglow.

"Base Commander, something terrible has happened! You'd better come out and take a look!"

event?

The commander of the Eight-Finger Base frowned.

I've seen it all during my months at the resort; they're just a bunch of country bumpkins who've never seen the world.

"Base...Base Chief, do you think it might be Miss Ouyang who's here?"

The boy then spoke up weakly from the side.

"Wow! Miss Ouyang? You've arrived so quickly. My people were only sent out a few days ago."

Upon hearing what the boy said, the Eight Fingers Base Commander was taken aback.

According to the schedule, Miss Ouyang shouldn't be arriving so soon.

After all, the team he sent out wasn't exactly speed-focused, and they had to dodge monsters along the way, so Ouyang Qianjin shouldn't be arriving so soon.

never mind.

Let's go out and take a look.

If something goes wrong with the 'empire' I've worked so hard to build, won't I just become a petty thug again?

Although I can still make a comeback with my current profession and skills.

But he didn't want to hand over this resort, which he himself couldn't afford even a toilet in eight lifetimes when he was a petty hoodlum, to someone else.

However, when the Eight Fingers Base Chief hurried out of the room, he noticed something was wrong.

"W-why is it dark!?"

Looking up at the thick, dark clouds in the sky that didn't let in a ray of sunlight, the Eight Fingers Base Chief was completely dumbfounded.

Wait a minute, isn't it only almost lunchtime? How come it's already dark?

"Hey! What on earth is going on!?"

The Eight-Finger Base Commander, who had never seen such a singing scene before, asked the person next to him with a slightly flustered expression.

"No... I don't know. This dark cloud suddenly drifted in from a distance. At first, we thought it was going to rain heavily, but the dark cloud just stayed there and there was nothing there."

The man frantically pointed to the sky and reported to the Eight Fingers Base Chief.

After glancing at the dark clouds in the sky, Eight Fingers looked down at the guys downstairs who were frantically lighting torches.

"Base Commander! Base Commander!"

Just then, a person holding a torch ran into the villa where the Eight Fingers Base Chief was located.

"What's going on this time?!"

The Eight Fingers Base Chief roared angrily at the man.

After training them for several months, they should already be familiar with the kind of chaotic scene that I hate the most.

Well, the result was good!

They're all here today!

This made him furious, but he also felt a chill that he himself was unaware of.

"Outside! There are so many will-o'-the-wisps outside!"

The person pointed in the direction outside the resort and shouted at Eight Fingers.

"Ah! Will-o'-the-wisps!? Have you lost your mind?! Where on earth do ghosts come from... uh... wait! Miss Ouyang! A necromancer!"

Originally, when the other party mentioned will-o'-the-wisp, Eight Fingers was already ready to start cursing.

As a result, he remembered Ouyang Qianjin's words about the necromancer, which seemed to suggest that it was possible to create will-o'-the-wisps!

Yes!

It must be this guy!

But the problem is, isn't this guy just a necromancer?

How could they possibly cause such a celestial phenomenon?

Could it be because they gained some powerful skills after changing jobs at level 50?

Damn it!

If I had known this would happen, I should have completed the level 49 quest first!

Yes.

The Eight-Finger Base Chief is currently level 49.

Because it overlapped with the time when Zhang Mo and others were captured, there was no time to do this task.

hehe.

Rather, it was precisely because he encountered Zhang Mo and his group during the upgrade process that he harbored such malicious intentions.
