Chapter 377: Chapter 366: New Courses and Unboxing

Above the Fog Sea, on a snow-white stone pillar, sewer water dripped from Tang Qi’s body. With the final drop falling, it also proclaimed the death of a pure “Evil Seed.”

An existence almost detested by all species, including humans; a being born into the Chaotic Evil Camp, bringing nothing but disaster and slaughter.

Bessie Love was but a human Evil Seed, and furthermore, she had just started to grow.

Even so, she already possessed formidable strength and a cunning, cruel nature.

The only pity was that, during her growth, she encountered Tang Qi.

If it had been an Evil Seed from another species, like… an Elf, the destructiveness would not have been limited to this extent. Humans indeed possess boundless potential on the Mysterious Side, but potential requires a lengthy period of time to realize, whereas some species are born strong. Elves are such, and so are demons.

“Phew.”

Tang Qi exhaled turbid breath and glanced at himself.

The progress of his Meditation Method suddenly leaped to three percent.

A smile immediately curled up on Tang Qi’s lips—the Information Fragment proved correct; the soul of an Evil Seed indeed served as excellent fuel.

His current realm, “Professional Level,” covered a vast range of levels, including internal wizards, great wizards, and priests of the Melter Wizards.

The only exception was the “King.” Every Witch King who could communicate with the Master of the Crucible’s true form had transcended the profession and entered the “Legendary” realm.

And this applied to other Extraordinary Professions as well.

After promoting to the Professional Level, Tang Qi had a premonition that subsequent promotions would be much more difficult than before.

Especially since he was not as keen on the “Sacrifice Method” as other Melter Wizards, which might cause his progress to increase at a snail’s pace.

For this reason, the soul of an Evil Seed, capable of bringing a three percent increase in progress, was enough to delight Tang Qi.

“The souls of purely evil beings like Resentful Demons and Evil Seeds seem to be considered the best fuel.”

A realization struck Tang Qi.

He wasn’t keen on sacrifices because he didn’t want to court death.

But hunting Chaotic Evil Extraordinary Creatures and obtaining rich fuel fell entirely within his interests.

Tang Qi strengthened his resolve to continue hunting, and his gaze swept across the stone pillar and the void.

Soon, the result came back: Bessie Love, the human Evil Seed, was indeed completely dead, leaving no residual threats.

“Alert cleared!”

Tang Qi took out his badge and used the principal’s authority to restore the White Lighthouse to normal.

At the same time, his voice also resonated in the minds of Professor Eva and the others.

Teachers, just recovered from shock, watched as the snow-white column descended from the peak of the Fog Sea. Besides Tang Qi, Bessie Love’s figure was no longer visible. The seemingly cute yet genuinely monstrous little girl left nothing but droplets of filthy blood.

Accompanied by thunderous sounds, they were washed away by the lake water.

Mr. Principal didn’t return from the Isolation Zone but instead directed Professor Eva to take the teachers to comfort the frightened students.

As for himself, he delved deeper into the Isolation Zone amidst the pervasive mist.

Tang Qi went to inspect other Danger Sources, not only to ensure the Hannahs were safe but also to check on five Level 5 Danger Sources.

His original plan was to take them on one by one, slowly.

But due to Bessie Love, Tang Qi had to confirm first that there wasn’t a second “Evil Seed” or a similar entity.

A half-hour later, with the school restored to peace,

in front of the White Lighthouse, Tang Qi’s figure reappeared, his expression calm, but his eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Inspection complete!

There was no existence similar to an Evil Seed among the remaining five Danger Sources.

However, three of them were directly sealed with witchcraft by Esmeralda.

The reason was simple: they could barely control the power in their bodies and were always on the verge of running amok, especially with the return of the Spiritual Tide making their state increasingly unstable. Thus, Esmeralda had no choice but to use powerful slumber witchcraft.

The three children were all in a “Soul Slumber” state.

The other two were somewhat better, not having reached a critical point.

Yet Tang Qi didn’t immediately interact with them to alleviate the danger.

Instead, he headed straight back to the Library Tower, to the fourth floor.

The three guys’ brawl had ended, with Gluttony teaming up with the Night Beast, attempting to dupe the Little Fairy with the leftover “Extraordinary Cooking” from Tang Qi’s previous banquet.

Unfortunately, they underestimated the intelligence of the Elf Infant. A small act of resistance backfired, and the two shameless creatures once again experienced the extraordinary flavor of Extraordinary Cooking, grimacing in a way that provoked the Elf Infant into fits of laughter.

Seeing such jolly sights, it looked as though it wouldn’t think of leaving Dragon Heart Castle for a while.

Well, leaving would be difficult anyway.

Any creature that entered Dragon Heart Castle would need Tang Qi’s, the principal’s, consent to leave.

“The school’s problems are more severe than I imagined.”

Tang Qi sat down with a frown, the first thought emerging in his mind.

Merada Special Education School!

Almost acknowledged by the Mysterious Side of Secret Phoenix City as a first-tier Extraordinary Force.

It cannot compare to the Church or the Ancient Castle Bureau, but it is undoubtedly a significant force.

However, all this hinges on the Witches still being there.

Today, the school is run by no one but Tang Qi.

Both the “invader” from the first day and the recent “Bessie Love” have exposed a significant problem within the school.

First and foremost, there is a lack of strong figures.

Almost entirely dependent on the existence of Tang Qi.

Without him, the school is powerless to respond to changes, whether external or internal.

Other details, such as protection magic, facilities, and heritage, are all very well arranged by the Witch Group.

Only this one item is weak and vulnerable.

“The already scarce number of teachers are also biased towards theorists; apart from Professor Eva, there are few potential talents to be found.”

“Perhaps we can look among the students?”

Ideas began to stir in Tang Qi’s mind.

Since there is a lack of strong figures, then they shall train strong figures.

On the Mysterious Side, many Transcendents will grow incredibly fast once they enter their growth phase.

“Start a new class, a real combat class, taught by me personally and add Jason as free labor; perhaps in a short time, we can train a few students who are close to Professional Level, or even at Professional Level.”

“Ah, I already have a list of the first batch of students.”

As the thought flitted by, several dangerous figures flashed through Tang Qi’s mind.

Their powers were already nearing Professional Level, they just lacked crucial control and digestion.

And this is exactly what Tang Qi is meant to do.

After pondering for a moment about the details of the new class, Tang Qi’s thoughts shifted back to himself.

After the battle with the Evil Seed, Tang Qi confirmed an idea that had long been in his mind: Melting Furnace Power has extraordinary potential.

He had read “Melter Wizard’s Complete Record of Death” and “How did the Melting Furnace go out?”.

These two books fully reveal the arrogance of Melter Wizards and their crude use of Melting Furnace Power.

The reason, probably, is the “Sacrifice Method.”

This witchcraft allows even the weakest Melter Wizard to confront Legendary Level Evil God Creations, or directly kill a Half Evil God in a slumbering state.

With shortcuts available, who would choose the hard path of Cultivation?

Even though the Melter Wizards had another Basic Witchcraft.

The Refining Method!

Aside from the very few Melting Furnace Priests, and only one “Molten Furnace Witch King” that appeared in the entire Dark Age, the rest of the Melter Wizards didn’t seem to care much about this fundamental witchcraft. They were all about the Sacrifice Method and cheating with Merit to improve their Molten Furnace Witchcraft.

According to the books, a Melter Wizard who had sacrificed a large number of Evil God Creations, coupled with a matching witchcraft, would be powerful enough to crush a Bright Great Knight, even to a more excessive extent.

Unfortunately, Tang Qi does not plan to go down this path.

At least at this stage, he will not exchange those recognizable Melting Furnace Witchcrafts.

“Using the Refining Method as a key to develop various applications, this path is radically different from the mainstream and extremely difficult, but it’s suitable for me, who possesses Special Abilities. Moreover, I am no longer a lone Transcendent. The support of the Witch Group is sufficient for me to get through the first phase.”

“Speaking of heritage, I also have some of it.”

As his thoughts flickered, Tang Qi suddenly recalled his collection.

Most of it, such as Human Skin Ointment, Eternal Wine, Giant Secret Medicine, Holy Light Human Skin… these were valuable, but dispensable to Tang Qi now. He planned to tidy them up soon and directly give some Curios, along with weapons, to McGraw.

Besides these, there were some in his collection that even Tang Qi was still unable to fully comprehend or utilize.

For example, the Mysterious Cocoon.

As well as the “Inheritance Ring” left by the Black Snake Witch, which contained a legacy treasure of a Witch coven, Tang Qi could not use it.

And the “Ancestor Fruit,” which requires finding a trustworthy Spirit Plant Master, at least of Professional Level.

“So…”

Quite naturally, Tang Qi thought of something.

Casually grabbing Gluttony, he brushed aside its wide red tongue with some disgust, reached into its belly, and soon grasped a familiar object: a square iron box with some rust, an ancient-looking artifact.

The sealed Witch Iron Box!

It had two seals. The outer seal belonged to the powerful but very unlucky Witch Crocodile Granny, who unfortunately became fuel for Tang Qi.

Beneath the first seal likely lay her collection.

And the second seal belonged to the original owner, an unknown and immensely powerful Black Witch. Her witchcraft was able to transform an ordinary woman into a “Witch Crocodile” life form while the Spiritual Tide had not yet returned.

It is foreseeable that now with the return of the Spiritual Tide, her witchcraft will also regain its original power.

The only problem is that Tang Qi needs to break the seals.

After obtaining the iron box, he had been collecting materials to decrypt it, but he was alone and thus inevitably faced a long and arduous process.

But obviously, it’s not necessary anymore.

“Tonight, I can break the first seal.”

“As for the second seal, I need to make a trip to Esmeralda’s warehouse.”

Clutching the iron box, Tang Qi’s excitement began to build.

Opening the box!

The lovely life that all Transcendents and adventurers dream of.
