Chapter 740: Chapter 517: Great Luck Without Navigation, How to Efficiently Create People?

"It doesn’t matter anymore. Stranger, will you really take my child out?"

The woman asked.

"I will."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"Even though I just wanted to possess you?"

"That’s another matter. However, don’t expect me to find a nice burial ground for your child. Just bury him anywhere outside and that’s it."

He smirked as he spoke.

Being bitten by a venomous snake while doing a good deed, claiming he isn’t angry would be a lie. Later, if he doesn’t beat this woman until her soul disperses in this spirit world, then he would have come here for nothing.

"I understand, sir. I hope this can appease your anger and let my child rest in peace."

After the woman spoke, she pulled out a black doll from her white robe.

Liu Zheng sensed she had no malicious intent, so he didn’t stop her.

Then, she used her sharp nails to pierce her heart and smeared heart blood onto the doll.

Countless blood-red threads immediately emerged from the black doll, shooting in all directions.

"Witch, what are you doing?!"

"Witch, you promised to take us home."

"Witch, you will die a miserable death!"

...

Once again, ghostly cries echoed through the jungle.

"I’m already dead, what difference does it make whether I die well or not?"

The woman calmly replied.

She could even trick the benefactor of her own child, let alone these resentful spirits who were merely using each other.

"Merciful and mighty Baron Samedi! Please accept these offerings and forge a Blade of Revenge for your loyal follower Yulaba!"

The woman declared in a heavily nasal tone.

As she chanted, a skeleton figure wearing a cylindrical hat and holding a cane appeared behind her.

Comically, it had a long white beard hanging from its chin.

It didn’t acknowledge Liu Zheng, instead it directly inserted the cane into the woman’s skull, all the way down.

The skeleton figure opened its mouth and emitted a terrifying scream using the woman’s voice.

The blood-red threads swiftly contracted, dragging incomplete resentful spirits from various parts of the jungle into the black doll.

Liu Zheng couldn’t tell whether their incompleteness symbolized a lack of soul or merely reflected how they looked before dying.

Finally, when all the blood-red threads were retracted, the skeleton figure grabbed the black doll and stuffed it into the woman’s skull.

Only then did the skeleton figure look at Liu Zheng, who remained unfazed.

In this spirit world, no matter what tricks a god’s will might play on him.

And indeed, the skeleton figure did nothing, holding the cane, it turned and left, its figure disappearing into the depths of the jungle.

Since the main character had left, Liu Zheng had no reason to stay in the spirit world.

Closing his eyes and opening them again, he returned to the 11th floor.

"Huh?"

In the gray-white world, a touch of gold suddenly appeared.

Liu Zheng drew out Neil’s spine, and the white bones gradually transformed into a claw-like dagger.

The handle of the dagger was hollow, shaped like a human head, upon closer inspection, countless ghostly faces struggled within the skull.

He gripped the hilt, and his spirit immediately felt a biting pain.

"Name: Insect Killing Witchcraft Knife"

"Type: Equipment"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect one: Deals 200% damage to ’Alien Insect’, damage increases by 10% for every ’Alien Insect’ killed, up to 1000%. If more than five minutes pass without killing an ’Alien Insect’, the bonus damage effect resets."

"Effect two: Once equipped with this item, it cannot be removed unless an ’Alien Insect’ is killed, and every minute reduces player Spiritual Attribute by 1 point."

"Remark: Kill bugs! Kill bugs! Kill bugs!"

"Can be taken out of instance: Yes"

"Good stuff."

Having been in Metropolis for so long, it’s the first time he’s seen an item with such straightforward and crude effects.

Whether it’s the positive effects or the negative effects, they all serve one purpose: urge you to kill bugs.

"You want me to kill bugs, but where the hell are the bugs?"

Liu Zheng complained.

Giving luck but no navigation, how is he supposed to efficiently create people?

Then, a small ghost floated out from Neil’s skeletal remains.

Neil’s eyes remained shut, as he raised his pale little hand pointing northeast.

"There’s even a backup plan."

Come to think of it, considering they wanted to send his child’s remains out, how could they not leave his child’s soul behind?

"However..."

Liu Zheng looked at Neil’s ghost’s lower body, where it was empty, perfectly matching the insect body half.

Since his body was complete, it’s likely that the lower half was sacrificed.

Considering his special status, this was probably unavoidable for forging this dagger.

"Let’s go then."

Liu Zheng picked up Neil’s skeleton and placed it inside the Legendary Takeout Box.

While Neil’s ghost floated over, sitting on his shoulder, his little hand still pointing northeast.

"You better point wisely, little ghost. If you point accurately, I’ll treat you to a cemetery meal, but if you point wrong, I’ll... uh, tap your head."

Liu Zheng glanced at Neil’s broken waist and corrected himself.

Neil showed no response to his words, as if truly dead.

Since Neil was there to guide him, Liu Zheng decided to remove the Peeping Eye.

This thing was uncomfortable to wear, and it could lead him astray.

Just now, if it weren’t for the Legendary delivery man’s post-action smoke, Liu Zheng might have indeed encountered a setback.

But to ignore those highlighted tips, come on, he’s a player, who could resist?

After walking northeast for a while, Neil lowered his hand.

"Is this the place?"

Liu Zheng halted and quietly listened to the surroundings.
