The Game of Global Mining-Chapter 341 - 283: Hunting Down the Dark Soul Witch
From the Astrology Old Lady, it was learned that hunting the Dark Soul Witch was probably his Cleaner Fish profession mission, mere collision surely couldn’t do it, Illusion Wine Purification must be prepared!
Vivian had given a few bottles of Old Bird Vodka, and Chun immediately opened the cap, covering the bottle mouth to store energy, as if holding a grenade.
At this moment, the screen spun wildly, Chun’s wheelchair seemed to be turning, and the Shield Value was plummeting in the thousands, thanks to the wheelchair’s Fire Shield reducing and deviating magical damage...
Just then, Chun’s screen suddenly "lagged" for a moment, clearly displaying the Black Robe Witch in the crowd!
——System Prompt: The Prophetic Treasure Pearl predicted the Dark Soul Witch’s "Instant Teleportation" movement, the Pearl predicts misfortune!
The still frame flashed and disappeared, the wheelchair rushed to her, and suddenly saw a "Spell Failure" over her head!
Holy shit, can the Pearl even disrupt her spellcasting?
——System Prompt: The Prophetic Treasure Pearl predicted the Dark Soul Witch’s "Shield Wall" movement, the Pearl predicts misfortune!
The next moment, the surprised witch indeed urgently cast an unformed Shield Wall to try to remedy, and Chun collided violently, flying with the wheelchair!
——System Prompt: Warning! You’ve maliciously collided with a citizen, your crime has deepened, reputation decreased!
Holy shit, still pretending to be a good citizen!
——System Prompt: The Prophetic Treasure Pearl predicted the Dark Soul Witch’s "Flame Burst" movement——
Spells cast so fast!
Chun hurled a bottle directly, which burst into a crash of fragments, the witch let out a miserable howl, a massive Fireball burst forth——Aileen apparently saw the prediction and dodged in advance, that Fireball narrowly clipped by the wheelchair’s Fire Shield deviation effect!
The explosion’s shockwave behind Chun pushed and sent screams echoing, and Chun’s system prompt filled the screen again!
Chun could hardly believe it, clearly it was her Fireball that hit the people behind, why was this crime still blamed on me? Rogue skill "Shift the Blame"?
——System Prompt: The Prophetic Treasure Pearl predicted the Dark Soul Witch’s "Wind Movement" movement, the Pearl predicts great misfortune!
Is she trying to run?!
Then there’s no choice but to chase!
The witch indeed escaped into the underground passage with the wind swirling around her, the wheelchair spewing fire followed, the witch threw another Fireball predicted in advance, Aileen did a wheelchair backflip, recreating the famous car-over-bridge scene from the movie Fast & Furious——the wheelchair ran along the wall!
Meanwhile, the city guards in pursuit clearly lacked this maneuverability, more explosions and screams affecting street vendors, and Chun’s system prompt filled the screen again!
Chun was all in for this! Even if eventually captured, he must take down this witch, maybe he could redeem himself!
Fortunately, this witch also cleared some pursuing city guards for him, so the pressure wasn’t as great as before!
...
Now the pressure shifted to Raphael!
Chun couldn’t catch up first, so he targeted Midnight Moore.
The Rainbow 7 special operation team rushed into the chaotic hotel immediately but didn’t see Midnight Moore. They activated anti-submarine and anti-invisibility divine artifact, still no sign!
They directly showed the privilege search certificate to enter the hotel interior, only then encountering the panicked Pipilo under bodyguard protection.
Raphael might have figured it out, Chun was just a distraction, deliberately causing chaos, the real action was actually by this Midnight Moore! Could he have taken the thief profession?
Raphael immediately instructed his team: "Let Pipilo check his vault, confidential account book!"
Pipilo was compliant but had some personality: "I’ll go check right away, I also have a professional private bodyguard team, but when it comes to property privacy, it is inconvenient for everyone to follow me in."
The captain said: "We’ll stand by your door!"
"Alright..."
At this moment, Moore sighed in relief, having deceived the first hurdle.
Moore neither ran nor hid, instead he changed into a uniform similar to NPC staff lying in the ruins pretending to be dead——no, becoming a corpse!
This was another hidden profession of Moore, more accurately a hidden race——Nightmare! A spiritual state being, with no attack power in the physical world and even unable to exist, akin to a soul out of body. Its greatest use is collecting intelligence.
During the public test, Moore received a hidden mission from a long-time nightmare sufferer, eventually capturing a little Nightmare, thus starting a long hidden mission line.
Of course, the current usage limits are significant, either sleep, get drunk, or like now, directly become a corpse, and will not immediately resurrect in the square.
Though becoming a corpse has big flaws too, had the special operation team been more thorough, they could’ve found it, but clearly, they all went to anti-submarine and anti-invisibility...
Now, Moore’s soul body directly hid in Pipilo’s shadow on the ground secretly infiltrating, even if discovered, it would be mistaken for a Shadow Demon, without revealing his true identity...
...
Now, Chun was chasing the witch from the fourth to the fifth floor.
Originally, he was about to catch up, but the witch shamelessly bombarded roadside stalls, with large debris flying up blocking the way, repeatedly dodging slowed down the pace.
Seeing that the wheelchair’s Magic Crystal Core power couldn’t catch up, Chun gritted his teeth, shaking his hands vigorously! Manual power combined with nuclear power, hybrid and environmentally friendly!
Just as the wheels smoked and sparked——System Prompt: Congratulations! Your Outstanding Wisdom, Grandmaster-level Module Combination successfully integrated the Master-level Mechanician, Wheelchair Sliding speed technique, your Basic Running upgraded to level 2! Your Basic Climbing Technique upgraded to level 3! Your Basic Wheelchair Sliding upgraded to level 2! You gained the "Mechanical Climbing" info. You received achievement rewards...
...
Holy shit! Chun doubted his eyes, just with this wheelchair’s wall-hugging speeder stunt in the tunnel, leveling up Sliding and Climbing Techniques is understandable, but how did he comprehend running?
Running with feet counts, running with hands also counts? No problem, primates like apes and monkeys indeed run with hands, but this is shaking the wheels with hands, does that count as using hands to run?
Just as my thoughts were racing—system prompt: Congratulations! Your Basic Running has upgraded to Level 3...
Holy Shit! The system explains everything, hand-shaking counts as running! Besides, Basic Running was recalled during the soul-body battle against the Tree God, running without a body also counts!
Never thought that, earlier I always felt there was no chance to practice running, now the opportunity has come!
With running now, the wheelchair speed is noticeably faster, this increasing speed is just—
—system prompt: Congratulations! Your Basic Running has upgraded to Level 4...
—system prompt: Congratulations! Your Basic Climbing has upgraded to Level 4...
Wow hahaha, leveled up again, this is like a snowball effect!
Before my amnesia, running was originally at expert level, and climbing was advanced level, at this speed, recovering to expert level isn’t a problem! Once reaching expert, it will align with my clone’s rhythm, that’s directly Master level!
Master Level Running, Grandmaster Level Sailing, Master Level Swimming Technique, instantly understanding what the clone comprehended over time as the Great Explorer! Having the skills of an explorer as a foundation...
Running leveled up again! It’s basically leveling up every few seconds!
Earlier, Chun was extremely anxious about not catching up, now he’s extremely worried about not catching up, and waiting for me to achieve expert level in running before chasing!
And the Witch seems to have also sensed Chun’s continuously increasing speed, not only frantically throwing debris from the roadside but also releasing black smoke to instantly block Chun’s view!
Aileen laughed: "Radar!!"
That’s right! There’s radar hahaha~~~ I feel like I’ve got this Witch pinned down!
...
Raphael anxiously and bewilderedly waited.
Reports about Chun keep coming in, Chun is trying to pursue a Black Robe Mage and using the Black Robe Mage’s fireball and black smoke to block the pursuit of the City Guard.
"Report, sir, Chun and the Black Robe Mage have appeared on the seventh underground floor, heading straight for the maze’s Secret Realm!"
Raphael frowned: "Midnight Moore?"
"Still not found!"
Raphael can’t wait anymore, although he is from the game development side, these two’s gameplay has already exceeded the original settings of the game, even though it’s Michael’s expected development, he can’t stand it!
Raphael said deeply: "Entering the Secret Realm is good, no longer need to worry about accidentally hitting citizens, I want to personally take down this fly, other team members, stand guard at the entrance of the Secret Realm!"
...
At this time, Chun can’t remember how many streets he’s chased, but it’s enough, Advanced Climbing hit Level 1, Advanced Running hit Level 10, radar shows the path ahead is flat and straight, no more obstacles to slow down, this continuously accelerating speed is absolutely expert!
Sure enough!
—system prompt: Congratulations! You successfully promoted to Expert Running Level 1, you obtained the skill memory before your amnesia, successfully established a Soul Link to share skills with your clone, you shared your clone’s Master Level Running Level 1.
—system prompt: Congratulations! Your Outstanding Wisdom, Grandmaster Level Module Combination integrated Grandmaster Level Sailing Technique, Master Level Swimming, Master Level Running, successfully comprehended the Great Explorer profession, obtained profession skills "Crisis Acceleration" "Risk Avoidance" "Basic Invisibility Level 1" "Basic Space Treasure Hunting", obtained profession rewards: Attack +20, Defense +10, Movement Speed +2, Life +200, Physical Strength +100, Weight Capacity +100, Mana +100.
—Great Explorer: Player character level increases by 1 level, Life +2, Physical Strength +2, Weight Capacity +2, Mana +1.
...
Hahaha, the main account finally became an explorer!
To be honest, the main account doesn’t have the conditions of the clone’s Earth Lotus possession, really relying on two legs to recover to Expert Running is quite strenuous!
—Explorer skill prompt: Detected strong space fluctuations ahead, discovered the Secret Realm Spatial Gate.
She has run into the major instance of Gem City! Or was her lair originally there?
Aileen resentful yet excited: "I see she’s exhausted along the way, can fight!"
Then enter the instance!
Just at the moment of scene transition—system prompt: Warning! Prophetic Treasure Pearl predicts the Dark Soul Witch’s Hundred Souls’ Grudge movement, the Pearl divines good fortune for you!
Chun was shocked, the Pearl kept giving her bad luck, this time it’s giving me good fortune! Final battle?
The next moment, a large group of noisy screaming voices rushed in, Chun’s eyes went black!
—system prompt: Warning! Your soul encountered the impact of Hundred Souls’ Grudge, entering a coma soul state, you have been invaded and possessed by one hundred Evil Spirits!
Holy Shit, one hundred Evil Spirit Possessions?
Aileen was flabbergasted: "Come quick, Evil Spirits breached our contract space!"
Chun suddenly opened her eyes, returning to the cockpit of the Black Sea Pirate Ship! In the sky, hundreds of winged female Evil Spirits swoop down!
But collided with the rainbow light shield surrounding the entire ship, erupting a chorus of screams!
Chun immediately noticed that the rainbow light shield was brighter, emitting glass-metal-like sheen, so this is the effect of being divined for good fortune?!
Aileen quickly recovered: "They’re all Dancing Girl’s souls! The Old Witch killed and imprisoned so many Dancing Girls!"
