Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Left Near-Late
Mt. Kirisasa, the retreat of the Ghost Slayer Cultivator Scales Zuo, welcomed a special guest on this day.
Ning Ning obediently knelt beside the coffee table, Wu Ming sat cross-legged on the tatami mat, looked around at the environment, the simple cabin, the simple layout, felt the faint ghost aura coming from the next room, and finally set his eyes on the old man wearing a tengu mask on the other side of the low table.
Name: Scales left near time (Green Friendly)
Ethnicity: Human
Attribute:
Strength: 9
Stamina: 9
Dexterity: 9
Spirit: 19
Intelligence: 9
Skill: Water Breath
Like Butterfly Ninja, his strength and body are only 9 points, except for the spirit that far surpasses that of mortals, the others are just the limits of mortals, but his body exudes strange fluctuations, and Wu Ming can judge that this old man is far from being as simple as he appears.
9 points is the extreme value that ordinary humans in a world can achieve, and if such an attribute is placed in the real world, it must be a superhuman-like existence, but it is not qualified in the reincarnation world.
Wu Ming had never read the original book of "Demon Slayer Blade", but he knew that there must be something extraordinary about the old man in front of him who had the status of awarding camp rewards to survive in this world full of ghosts.
Maybe it was because Wu Ming killed the so-called Twelve Ghost Moons, and the old man didn't throw Wu Ming's face because of his 1 point of charm that he hated ghosts, although his attitude was not very good, but his tone was still warm: "You are the young man who killed the third of the lower strings?" β
Scales Zuo sniffed with his nose recently: "The smell on your body is very strange, obviously there is a ghost smell, if it weren't for the letter from the butterfly ninja, I would have thought you were a ghost, your physical fitness can break through the limit like a ghost, but unfortunately you don't know the correct breathing method, and you don't have a Japanese wheel knife, but you can kill a ghost of that level, I'm curious how you did it, what the hell are you... What is it? β
What is it?
Swearing, you are.
Wu Ming's face was a little worried, and Ning Ning couldn't help but answer: "Lord Wu Miao is a god!" Ghosts are afraid of adults! β
Scaly Zuo looked at Wu Ming seriously: "What do you want to do?" β
"I want to be part of the final selection."
"Only those who aspire to become ghost slayers can participate in the final selection, do you want to join the ghost slayer team?"
Wu Ming smiled: "If that's the case, it's okay to join." β
He couldn't see his expression under his mask, and he asked for a while, "Answer me, are you a ghost?" β
Wu Ming shook his head: "I am human. β
With a wave of his palm, the closet behind him opened, revealing the items listed inside.
A page appeared in front of Wu Ming, full of rewards that he could redeem at the left of the scales.
1. Ordinary Nihon Knife: R-level sword equipment, attack 20-30, can cause real damage to ghosts, exchange price 3000 reputation
2. Disaster Mask: R-level facial equipment, Spirit +1 to cancel a facial fatal attack exchange price 3000 reputation
3. Zero Elixir: R-level drugs replenish 50% of life at an exchange price of 1000 prestige
4. Mist Tread: R-level footwear equipment, agility +1, mountain terrain movement speed +12%, exchange price 3000 reputation
5. Sensory Inspiration: Strengthen one of the player's five senses to exchange for 5000 prestige (unique)
6. Water Breath Cultivation Method: You can practice the unique breathing method of the Demon Slayer Blade World for an exchange price of 10,000 Fame
7. Water-type Knife Technique: SR-level sword skill exchange price 10,000 reputation
8. Thin Blood: R-level props, which have a fatal attraction to blood-feeding bloodlines such as vampires and zombies, and can increase random attributes by 1 point after use, with an exchange price of 5000 prestige.
9. Demon Slayer Feather Weaving: SR-level cloak, agility +3, basic footwork level +1, with phantom skills, exchange price 10,000 prestige
I have to say that the prestige reward is indeed far more attractive than the reincarnation coin, 3,000 reincarnation coins in the reincarnation market can only buy an N-level weapon, and the SR-level skill is worth more than 30,000 reincarnation coins, but it is sold at a discount here, which makes Wu Ming regret that he didn't choose prestige when he killed and exterminated in the first place.
The first two options are all related to the achievement task, the secret medicine of zero is the drug supply that Wu Ming urgently needs, the fog step can also fill the stinking military boots that Wu Ming lost, the breathing cultivation method should be a unique power system in the world of the Demon Slayer Blade, the thin blood can be sold for a good price in the reincarnation space, the knife technique is a skill, and the last item is the SR level equipment, what makes Wu Ming most curious is the fifth option sensory inspiration, the only attribute on it makes Wu Ming a little scratchy for a while, and he doesn't know how to choose.
I want everything, but I only have 11,400 reputation points, so it doesn't seem like it's enough to spend... Children make choices, adults of course all of them!
Just kill a few more imps!
Without saying a word, he directly exchanged for the Disaster Elimination Mask, Mist Tread, Sensory Enlightenment and a bottle of Zero Secret Medicine, and spent 400 points on his reputation, Scales nodded and said: "Wise choice, I need to prepare for sensory inspiration, you can accept these things first." β
γDing! Obtain the Disaster Elimination Mask, Reward: 500X2 Reincarnation Coins, achievement: Mask Collector]
Putting on the clogs, Wu Ming moved his big toes, looked up and asked, "Mr. Scales, I want to know what kind of ghost you keep talking about?" It's not the same as I know, ghosts should be ghosts, right? β
The old man of Tengu looked at Wu Ming with some surprise: "You don't even know what a ghost is, but you killed a ghost?" And it's the third of the twelve ghost months?! β
Being stared at with the eyes of the mentally retarded, Wu Ming scratched his cheeks with some embarrassment, in fact, Wu Ming was very puzzled when he killed the sick leaf in seconds before, most of the ghosts he encountered in the real world were souls, and what he could command was also the soul, and he had not encountered the ghosts that condensed the entity, once the resentment of the ghosts accumulated to a certain extent, it would be realized, this kind of ghosts are collectively called evil ghosts, there is no reason, once they meet a living person, they will attack, one of Wu Ming's main jobs as a spirit medium is to subdue the evil ghosts, It's just that most of the demons he has seen are condensed from the "Black Death Qi", and their physical attacks are ineffective, and they can only be defeated by relying on the reincarnation of the Infernal Direct Attack on the soul. Wu Ming, a ghost who can speak, think, bleed, have a physical body, and have feelings like a sick leaf has never seen it, not so much that the sick leaf is a ghost, but it is a zombie, but the zombie is completely insane, and it does not eat the trick of reincarnation.
The existence of ogres completely violates Wu Ming's professional cognition, and its composition is a bit like Wu Ming's player, as a well-known spirit medium in the demon hunting world, Wu Ming naturally has a strong curiosity about the existence of ghosts in this world.
Mr. Scales pondered for a moment and explained: "What you said is actually true, ghosts have existed since ancient times, the dead are attached to the world, and their souls wander, this is ghosts, until five hundred years ago, it has always been like this. The ghosts you see now, the name should be cannibals, they appeared out of thin air five hundred years ago, easily broke through the boundaries of mortal power, they have a strong body, an immortal physique, wisdom, feelings, feed on humans, in addition to the fear of sunlight and wisteria flowers, they can be regarded as evolved humans, but when they die, they will not leave corpses, only burning embers, so it seems that they are more like souls wrapping the body, the function is dominated by the soul, and their blood can infect ordinary people, Turn ordinary people into beings like them. β
Hearing this, Wu Ming couldn't help frowning: "Can it be infected?" Then how is it that this world has not been destroyed? β
"Because there is always a burning fire in a dark place, there are ghosts and naturally there are swordsmen who hunt ghosts, this is the ghost killing team, the ghost killing team uses the orangutan scarlet iron and orangutan scarlet ore that absorbs the sun's rays as raw materials to create a Nichiren knife that can hurt the ghost, as long as you use the Nichiren knife to cut off the head of the ghost, you can kill the ghost, this is the only known way to defeat the ghost, so I am very curious about you who killed the twelve ghost moons without the Nichiren knife, no, not only that, you know? In order to counter the powerful physical fitness of the ghosts, the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Team developed the breathing method to exceed the limit of humans, and you did not know the breathing method but exceeded the limits of humans, how did you do it? β
Wu Ming scratched his head, he didn't know how to explain to the scales, since he was born, he ordered the ghosts to catch the ghosts and evil as simple as breathing and drinking water, as for the attribute points...
"It's a game world, I'm playing..."
A thunderbolt fell on the clear sky, and the muffled thunder resounded in the sky.
γWarning! Warn! Players are not allowed to confide information about the reincarnation world to any character in the story world, and if they violate it, they will be killed! Don't set foot in that world in the future! γ
Wu Ming's face changed, and he couldn't help but raise his head, in the dark, he seemed to see a pair of huge eyes projecting their gaze on himself, as long as he continued to speak, the thunder would fall on his head!
Aggrieved, he pointed out of the house: "Did you see it?" Heavenly secrets must not be revealed. β
Ning Ning, who had long believed that Wu Ming was a god, only thought that it was a miracle, and knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times, but Mr. Scales was startled by the sudden lightning, although he couldn't see the eyes behind the Tengu mask, but he clearly felt the change in attitude from his tone: "Mr. Ghost Wang Ming, I won't ask if I shouldn't ask, but I just have a reluctant request below." β
Scales sat upright and leaned down at Wu Ming: "No matter what, please don't be an enemy of humans, the purpose of the Ghost Killing Team is to never swing a knife at humans..."
Wu Ming shook his head: "Every life is worthy of respect, no one is qualified to trample on life at will, unless, he has his own way to die, so if someone makes a mistake with me, I will definitely cut him, this is my purpose, so I am qualified to become a ghost swordsman?" β
Scales were silent for a long time, and nodded slowly: "Please join us." β
A big smile appeared on Wu Ming's face: "Then please teach me the breathing cultivation method." β
The scales shook his body, and he was obviously a little surprised by Wu Mingkong's bewildered behavior of the white wolf: "Mr. Wu Miao, this is not in accordance with the rules. β
Wu Ming shook his finger: "No, no, no, you see, if you join the ghost killing team, the breathing method is the most basic, if I can't even breathe the method, I am not qualified to enter the ghost killing team at all, so where am I embarrassed to call myself a ghost slayer?" β
"But..."
"Oh, then I'll quit."
"Wait!"
Subconsciously touched a letter in his arms, and Scales Zuo glanced at Wu Ming deeply: "I'll teach." β
"By the way, I also have some doubts about swordsmanship, since you are a cultivator..."
"I'll teach!"
The smile on Wu Ming's face became brighter and brighter, and he didn't need to look at it to know what the letter from Butterfly Shinobi was about.
"Meet all the conditions of the ghost king, if he is an enemy, he is a ghost king in human skin."
