Chapter 8: The Ghost Ring
Burke, who had been released, looked at the vast Flesh Manor, then turned away and left the place.
He didn't expect that the other party would really let him leave with 1.3 million Lingmin.
Maybe the money was a grain of sand in the eyes of the guy, but in Burke's eyes, it was a lot of money.
"Welcome to Dirk's Curse Item Shop~"
As Burke slowly pushed the door in, the two stunners with excellent figures immediately greeted him.
"Uncle... Mr. Burke! A woman recognized Burke, and she exclaimed in shock.
Hearing this, the boss at the counter also trembled, and then immediately ran over.
"Oh my God! Welcome, Mr. Burke. "The boss was like seeing a big star, and he was so excited that he even slurred his words.
"Are there any new cursed items?" Burke asked directly.
"The new curse is still on the way, but I have a batch of A-grade cursed items that I plan to sell back to the upper family at a loss." The topic of the boss was also brought back as normal.
"Sell it back to the upper family?"
"Yes, Dirk Town is a small place, the A-grade curse is too expensive for people here, not many people can afford it, and one was sold in half a year, just the ten-eyed python you bought some time ago, so I plan to return some back."
The boss's tone was full of helplessness, he was like opening a more high-end brand in a small county.
The curse item itself is not easy to sell, because the purpose is unknown, and many people are afraid of spending a lot of money to buy a scrap product.
Even if you figure out the effect, each cursed item has its own side effects, and whether you can withstand the side effects is another thing.
This also leads to the exceptionally poor business of the cursed item store, basically, it is good to have three or five orders a month.
And these cursed items have a fixed price, after all, no one knows who is used for it, so there is no way to raise it.
A level is fixed at 500,000 rings, B is 350,000, C is 200,000, D is 100,000, and E is 50,000.
What's more, cursed items below the C level are basically auxiliary devices, and if you want to buy offensive curse items, you have to start with a minimum of 200,000 people.
This price, for the average person, is a very expensive number.
An ordinary person goes to work and saves for two or three years without eating or drinking to earn so much.
"Take it out and I'll take a look." Burke spoke.
"Okay, then you can come with me." The boss knew that Burke was a cursed item that could afford to spend that price.
The boss led Burke to another small room in the store, where ten A-class cursed items were placed.
Burke also used the power of the golden finger to look at them one by one.
[Ghost Ring. γ
[Every life you kill will be absorbed by the Ghost Ring, and the strength of the absorption will increase with the health strength of the slain creature.] γ
[The souls absorbed by the ghost ring will be stored, and the more they are stored, the stronger the ghosts will be. γ
[The summoned ghost will attack indiscriminately, and he will not be under your command.] γ
[After wearing the ghost ring, you may be haunted by nightmares. γ
Absorbing too much soul will affect your emotions and sanity, and you may become a puppet who can only kill. γ
[It has been identified by wizards as: Class A cursed item.] γ
This is one of Burke's favorite cursed items.
The reason is that the world is almost everywhere with life, and most of the things that grow naturally are alive, except for man-made products.
No way, after all, the heavens and the earth in this world are also made up of flesh and blood.
Even the roots of the trees absorb not the soil, but the blood.
In other words, whenever a battle occurs, Burke can absorb a large number of souls, and these souls will not pass away, but can be stored permanently.
This infinite storage without an upper limit could be used as Burke's second hole card.
As for the indiscriminate attacks of the summoned ghosts, Burke didn't take this to heart at all.
When it's really your turn to use this ghost ring, I'm afraid it's also hanging by a thread.
At that time, it didn't matter if you were an obedient ghost or not, as long as he could break the game and create a glimmer of life.
Whether Burke will be able to grasp it by then is another matter.
And the side effects are not too serious.
Nightmares are nothing more than nightmares, and they can't cause substantial harm to the human body.
As well as killing too many souls would affect the spirit, Burke felt that his willpower could handle it.
When he first came to this world, he survived all the difficulties.
Burke placed the ghost ring on the ring finger of his left hand.
The ring is made of dark red musculature, and in the center of the ring is a square door with dense teeth wriggling.
Burke subconsciously shoved his fingers into the door, and the boss who saw this hurriedly stopped: "Mr. Burke, this guy will bite." β
"I want to try." Burke refused to listen to the dissuasion, and insisted on reaching out.
Soon blood oozed from his fingers, and his skin was taken away the moment he touched those teeth.
"It's you." Burke confirmed that he was going to take it.
He opened the black box, revealing a large box full of Lingmin.
"If you don't put something in it, they will run away, but don't look for me." Burke reminded.
The dumbfounded boss hurriedly found a black cloth bag, and then Burke filled it with 500,000 rings in front of the boss, and the whole box was a lot lighter.
"Mr. Burke, don't you look at it again?" Seeing that Burke was going out, the boss also hurriedly said.
"Enough, I'll see the rest." Burke now needs to find a curse that works with the Ten-Eyed Python.
One of the big drawbacks of the ten-eyed python is that it requires a certain amount of preparation time, and if it is a close-range battle, the ten-eyed python will be completely useless.
After coming outside, I walked around and found only the only one that had this effect, but the side effects seemed to be a bit troublesome.
γSpirit Lord's Flashγ
You can teleport. γ
[After teleporting, spasms will be triggered immediately.] γ
[Spasm strength depends on teleportation distance.] γ
[You must wait for the side effects to disappear before continuing to use.] γ
[Wizards identified it as: B-rank cursed items.] γ
