Chapter 242: Chapter 127: Mortals Are Nothing More Than Ghost Festival Guests
A few hours later.
Lu Wenwu had already captured those Hellhounds and another Four-headed Chimera, while Old Ghost was arrested and jailed for illegally possessing a high-power offensive Enlightenment Spiritual Artifact.
Although it’s not to the standard of being fed to the Bo’er Elephant, it’s expected to be a few years in prison.
This story tells us, don’t act tough without reason.
Especially when you don’t understand the law and still pretend in front of a Ghost Messenger.
What made Lu Wenwu feel a bit hard to cope with was…
The Enlightened Secret Silver Cross in Old Ghost’s hand was bought from those three electric fish catchers who were caught earlier.
The electric fish catchers picked it up randomly from the recycling station’s trash pile when they sneaked up to collect Celestial Thunder guiding device materials some time ago.
After returning, they sold it as an antique and activation device at a high price to this Old Ghost who loved mountain climbing.
What a crime, these three anglers’ days are becoming increasingly promising for a sentence.
Illegal immigration, illegal returning to the Human World, trafficking controlled items, privately guiding Celestial Thunder, igniting the Yama District’s grand monument, intentionally harming other ghosts…
Lu Wenwu believes he should soon be able to reunite with these three in the Demon Suppression Bureau’s Bo’er Elephant breeding garden.
Hopefully, they don’t get caught for anything else.
Otherwise, that’s a few hundred billion years of Hell service time!
Having simply completed his first mission after joining Ghost An, Lu Wenwu sat on the Paper Boat with Ju Li returning to headquarters to report.
He casually killed two Hellhounds but didn’t get any attribute points, which left him somewhat frustrated.
Ju Li asked while speeding the boat, “How do you plan to handle your loot?”
“Sell it to the organization, I can’t use it.” Lu Wenwu answered while fiddling with the Secret Silver Cross.
It couldn’t yield attribute points, nor could it be eaten; keeping it had no meaning and was pure junk for him.
As a dog person, letting Lu Wenwu eat a Hellhound was asking a bit much.
As for the Four-headed Chimera…
That thing seemed like it came straight out of a Resident Evil game, making Lu Wenwu have no desire to take a bite.
Unless he could later acquire a recipe that makes Chimera taste superb, he might consider trying it.
Regardless, Lu Wenwu’s Ghost Messenger career officially began today.
…
Nearly a year later.
After having an exhilarating fight, Lu Wenwu walked out of the dormitory shower, using True Sun Fire to dry off, and transformed into some casual pajamas.
“Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival… I really do miss home, wonder how Mao Mao and Xiaobao have been over this past year.”
Lu Wenwu lay on the bed playing with his phone, aimlessly browsing today’s Underworld news, filled with joy thinking about soon being able to go back.
A year of Ghost Messenger life had indeed greatly enhanced his combat experience.
Just the experience of fighting various strange creatures in all sorts of missions was a valuable asset.
To others, this Hell trip might just be a simple world instance, albeit a management and puzzle-solving type.
People either think about how to quickly complete the instance to return to the Human World, or how to gather enough returns in the Underworld, or just struggle to survive.
Wanting to return early is simple, just sneak back through the Soul Revival Cliff carefully.
As long as you’re not too reckless and get caught, the security there is mostly turning a blind eye, not too concerned.
Alternatively, if you’re a bit more capable, you can glitch back to the Human World through Beiyin Mountain, the exact method is unknown, but rumored to be as easy as aswd crouch crouch crouch crouch crouch…
To play it safe, just wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival when the ghost gates open, allowing a legal exit with no danger.
Apart from being slightly anxious this whole year, it wasn’t bad.
But to Lu Wenwu, a Ghost Messenger who had come ashore, this was no different from an ultra-long standby vacation period.
As the Ghost Messenger of Ghost Messengers, returning is too easy for him.
Just file an application above, the Underworld isn’t some compulsory labor camp and is quite humane in this aspect (unmistakably).
Anyway…
As long as you don’t cultivate to some incredibly powerful extent, sooner or later you have to return for a report; the Underworld isn’t in a hurry about this.
Of course, if you do reach that incredibly powerful level…
Then coming back or not doesn’t matter.
Thus, Lu Wenwu’s year in the Underworld was exceedingly comfortable.
He came down in person and could continue cultivation in the Underworld.
During this long year, even just occasionally setting up a stall at the Ghost An headquarters to sell a few stuffed pancakes was enough to rake in money like bags, earning Spirit Coins like crazy.
Moreover, owing to the special nature of the world instance, the store wasn’t locked in the process, and he went on a shopping spree after settling down, wildly buying Cultivation Acceleration Cards, spending fiercely.
Aside from this, Lu Wenwu also leveraged the resources collected at Ghost An and crazily cultivated all his skills with colleagues, significantly elevating his skill level realm.
Don’t get it wrong, of course not by turning colleagues into cultivation resources or killing them for attribute points (mostly because killing ghosts didn’t drop them, Lu Wenwu tried during missions).
Instead, in this place, Lu Wenwu could easily find opponents willing to spar with him, quite a few indeed.
As long as he didn’t use the True Sun Fire, many Ghost Messengers and Ghost Generals were willing to act as sparring partners for him.
