The Witcher’s Nightmare Wagon

Sigmund knew that what happened to him was definitely not a normal phenomenon. It seemed that an invisible big hand was interfering with all of this. He asked Conan about several extraordinary events before.

On the surface it really is just pure coincidence.

But if it happens once, it's a coincidence, if it happens twice, it's a coincidence, if it happens three times, four times, or five times, it's a supernatural event, right?

However, many extraordinary events piled up in succession. Although they were of different sizes, Sigmund discovered some unexpected surprises in himself.

His spiritual power, which had reached the standard for promotion, actually increased again, and the growth rate was astonishing. You must know that when he experienced some extraordinary events before, his spiritual power also increased to a certain extent.

But it is basically the same as the growth of ordinary extraordinary people, far less exaggerated than it is now.

Thinking of some words of Duke Dressel, he seemed to understand something. Do these bigwigs always like to do things so quietly?

After being grounded by Conan in a disguised form, Sigmund stayed for another day. After receiving news from the Duke, Sigmund found that all the demon hunters around the apartment had left completely when he went out.

"It's a pity, if it's the captain, it will definitely bring Conan to bankruptcy."

When he came to the Duke's mansion again, Duke Dressel showed a satisfied smile when he saw Sigmund's state.

"These things are all your arrangements?" Sigmund was a little helpless.

"It's the influence of a taboo thing. Don't worry, your safety is guaranteed. It mainly happened on Elm Street, an evil spirit from the void." The Duke praised.

"Although I don't know how you did it, the speed of processing is surprising."

After the chat was over, the Duke's expression became solemn.

"It's almost ready, it's time to enter the fourth level."

Sigmund nodded.

"Level 4 is an important dividing line. Only entering this level can be considered extraordinary in the true sense."

"Because it is a branch that came out of the executioner, the basic skills are the same as the executioner, and there will be a little difference in the details, but this is just the beginning, and it will be completely different when you enter the fifth level."

"How far have you groped?" Sigmund asked tentatively.

"It's okay to guarantee that you can enter the seventh level." The Duke smiled, but did not answer directly.

It has been a while since I came to this world. Level 7 is different from every previous stage. It is a huge gap. Even for many extraordinary contracts, level 7 is already the limit that can be achieved.

So far, he has never heard of any extraordinary occupations of the eighth level.

"Go and rest, we will advance to the fourth rank tonight."

...

night.

Sigmund raised his head, and the bright moonlight reflected on his face through the glass of the dome. He sat cross-legged on the ground, wearing only a pair of underpants, and even his hair was shaved.

Without saying a word, Charlotte smeared a special liquid on the surface of Sigmund's body, and a huge and complex ritual array was arranged on the surrounding floor.

After a busy night, which consumed a lot of spiritual power, Charlotte's face turned pale, and her body was already a little crumbling.

Finally the dark clouds cleared, and the full moon shrouded the sky overhead.

For the first time Sigmund saw Duke Dressel leave his seat and stand up.

This man was tall but not burly. He stepped forward, and when he stepped on the ground, there was a sound of metal friction. In addition, Sigmund also heard the sound of gears turning.

"Your legs?!"

Only then did Sigmund notice why Duke Dressel always liked to sit behind a desk, because his legs were completely made of machines from the knee down.

"It was broken in a battle many years ago," replied the duke.

It is not difficult to regenerate a broken limb in the extraordinary world. What happened to make the Duke's broken leg unable to grow back.

Judging from the sound of the gears turning, this pair of mechanical legs should have been forged for some years, and many parts inside were severely worn out. With the Duke's influence, he could find a rune master to replace him with a better pair of prosthetic legs.

"Don't be curious about my legs." The Duke interrupted Sigmund's conjecture, "Remember what I told you, judging from your talent, promotion should come naturally."

"Stay sane, step into madness."

Duke Dressel stared into Sigmund's eyes, "To control chaos is to control everything."

After speaking, he stretched out his hands and interlaced his fingers. Sigmund immediately felt a certain power in his body awakened from his deep sleep.

His eyes widened, because at this moment, in his consciousness, the energy hidden in the hourglass suddenly boiled!

Immediately afterwards, the spiritual power was activated, and the lines on the surface of the body lit up one by one, from the top of the head to the neck, all the way to the shoulders, the elbows finally met under the body, and spread out along the floor.

The walls are lit and the transparent dome is activated.

Eventually all textures converge at a single origin at the top.

At the same time, the full moon, the origin of the spirit array, and the top of Sigmund's head formed a line. In an instant, the top of his head was pierced by a strange force, and then Sigmund saw a scene that shocked him.

In consciousness, the energy in the hourglass is rapidly decreasing, not transformed into spiritual power in the body, but spreading along the gap on the top of his head and covering every corner of his body!

"That's it!" The Duke smiled. At this point, more than half of the ceremony has been completed, and the rest depends on Sigmund's will.

"Chaos, spiritual power..."

Through a strange ceremony, the two merged into one body. While covering the body, every trace of flesh and blood seemed to be infused with strange energy.

At this time, the bright moon in the sky moved, and terrifying ravings came from the void, but this time, Sigmund seemed to be able to extract some vague information from those weird ravings.

He seemed to be able to feel the emotions conveyed by the void.

"The cage!"

"Strengthen your will!" The sudden cold snort interrupted Sigmund's thinking, he restrained his mind, and completed all the fusion before the full moon moved away.

The gap on the top of the head disappeared, and the patterns drawn on the body surface disappeared completely. The bones all over his body crackled. Sigmund stood up, and a wave of fourth-order spiritual power swept across the audience.

"You succeeded." The Duke smiled and clapped his hands.

Closing his eyes, the ability belonging to the fourth level flashed in his mind.

Hunter Contract Tier 4 - Executioner (Chaotic State)

They are hunters, they are killers, they are the nemesis of those wild beasts that are out of control.

[Punishment]: Randomly obtain a supernatural ability from a supernatural being killed by you. This ability is equal to the level of the killed person and cannot be improved in any way. Possessing this extraordinary ability for a long time will increase the rate at which the chaos value rises.

Inheritance: Inherit the other party's extraordinary ability and bear part of the fate of the deceased. Please take it seriously. When you kill the other party, part of your fate has been entangled.

[Patience]: The brutal battle makes the executioner more tolerant to various types of damage, and the rate of increase in chaos value is reduced.

[Man of Steel]: The hardening time is greatly extended, and it can keep moving and fighting after activation.

[Dying Beast]: The deeper the damage you suffer, the stronger your combat power, please be careful, this is the beginning of a loss of control.

Very good and powerful, this is the ability that should be obtained after being promoted to the fourth-level executioner normally, and the [execution] is the core ability that will definitely be obtained.

The rest will vary from person to person, but normally, it will be acquired gradually over time.

But at this time, Sigmund is more concerned about his own control of the chaos value.
