13: The chapter branch is too scary! Burn teammates or go into the morgue? I want it all

"My Lord..."

"You're playing favorites. How come I didn't receive a gift from you..."

The Water Domain Ghost King suddenly materialized behind Lin Mo, her hands wrapping around Lin Mo's neck, exuding a powerful and terrifying pressure.

It felt as if a prolonged gaze might result in a snapped neck.

"Uh, there's only one. Don't worry, I've always been fair, you won't be left out."

"Guaranteed?"

"Of course!!!"

The Water Domain Ghost King retreated again.

Silently... Lin Mo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

It seems.

Contracting and raising corpses shouldn't be treated like summoned creatures or tamed beasts from web novels.

They are purely emotionless beasts of burden.

In the future, when buying equipment or anything else, he would need to buy multiple copies.

A wave of pressure to earn money instantly pressed down on Lin Mo's shoulders... He couldn't help but complain:

"Now I finally understand the hardships of married men..."

...In the morgue...

Dead enemies fell in droves... It seemed the Paper Figures had killed too many.

The Death Crematorium's chimney had stopped smoking.

Presumably, all the monsters here had been eliminated.

And.

There was even better news.

The negative buff of bone ash corrosion was also gone.

Lin Mo stepped out of the large house, finally able to take a deep breath of the murky air here.

"Comfortable!"

"This dungeon nearly suffocated me!"

"It made my little heart pound like crazy!"

He waved his hand casually.

The Netherworld Paper Figures formed a guard detail.

They protected Lin Mo in the center, making him incredibly safe!

Nether Veil Ghost Master: "My Lord, why do you not ride in the sedan chair carried by the Paper Figures? Walking consumes energy..."

Would Lin Mo tell the Nether Veil Ghost Master that riding in a sedan chair was too conspicuous, and what if he became a target for a gun?

"It's fine, you ride the sedan chair, and I'll walk. A hundred steps a day keeps the doctor away."

"My Lord, how wise..."

Under the protection of the Paper Figures, Lin Mo entered the morgue.

Since the monsters inside had been cleared out, the morgue was eerily quiet... you could hear a pin drop.

When they reached the deepest part.

Two massive human mouths appeared.

Carved from stone.

Within the mouths.

One side held an incinerator, the other a frozen morgue slab.

【Congratulations on reaching the deepest part of the Death Crematorium. Please choose a path based on your current status】

【①: Enter the morgue, challenge the Death Crematorium boss】

【②: Incinerate your teammates or your corpses to unlock a more terrifying future. Incineration quantity: 0/48】

"What is this?"

A chill ran through Lin Mo's heart.

Damn it, this dungeon design was truly awful.

You couldn't just defeat the boss and leave; you had to deal with such a disgusting branching path.

The first option was to crawl into that row of open morgue compartments.

That was too terrifying... crawling in, then having the compartment door close, like lying in a tiny coffin. It would be incredibly oppressive.

And it was pitch black inside; he might lose his three souls and seven spirits from fright before the boss even killed him.

The second option was even worse!

It required him to incinerate his teammates or corpses.

Who the hell would want to do that?

To work so hard to get here, then kill his teammates and throw them into the furnace.

It was too inhumane!

And even if you had the strength to throw your teammates into the furnace.

The required number for incineration was 48.

If each person brought one corpse to clear this dungeon.

That meant for a 25-person raid, you'd have to throw in 24 people.

Although some high-level individuals could enslave more corpses, reducing the number of people to be incinerated, who would willingly be a sacrifice?

At this moment.

Lin Mo couldn't help but feel increasingly lucky.

Incineration?

I have thousands of Paper Figures that you can burn as you please.

As for crawling into the morgue.

The Water Domain Ghost King shouldn't be afraid of the dark... right... Having her deal with the normal boss clear should be no problem.

The hidden content would be handled by the Nether Veil Ghost Master.

Wouldn't this allow him to have the best of both worlds?

After all, only children make choices; adults want it all!

Having decided on a strategy.

Lin Mo began to make arrangements.

"This concubine is ready..."

"This concubine is ready..."

After a series of commands.

Lin Mo gave the order.

The Water Domain Ghost King entered the boss challenge area.

The Nether Veil Ghost Master's Paper Figures began to be incinerated, accompanied by cries of agony... Finally, the challenge began... "Dinosaur carrying a wolf, dinosaur carrying a wolf..."

After the Water Domain Ghost King entered, the entire morgue began to tremble continuously.

And, from inside each morgue cabinet door, pools of netherwater seeped out.

Accompanied by damage numbers floating out... -124581

-152841

... -169851

Immediately after.

All the cabinets burst open... More and more water gushed out... So violently.

That indicated the boss inside was definitely taking a beating.

No doubt, the boss was being pummeled by his Water Domain Ghost King.

This in turn.

Also put Lin Mo at ease... Now he could focus his energy on the hidden content.

As the last Paper Figure was completely burned away... The entire morgue shifted dramatically... The mottled walls instantly became pristine white and gleaming... Darkness was gone, and the surroundings were spotless white.

After his pupils adjusted to the environment.

Lin Mo found himself in a hospital room... In the middle of the room, an old man with a breathing machine trembled incessantly... Seemingly on his last legs, not long for this world...

"Young man, don't be afraid, let me look at you..."

"Oh, what a strong young man..."

"Excellent, another replacement found..."

The old man's expression was very relieved.

Since he was no longer in such an oppressive environment.

Lin Mo naturally grew bolder.

"Old man, what did you mean by that just now?"

"Replacement?"

"Are you trying to take my kidney?"

The old man didn't answer, but his eyes clearly conveyed that meaning... "In that case, Paper Figure army, chop this old immortal to death!"

Lin Mo couldn't be bothered with pleasantries.

He waved his hand, immediately ordering the Nether Veil Ghost Master to command the Paper Figures to attack.

One slash!

-8546

Two slashes!

-9553

... "Wrong, young man, don't be so reckless, you misunderstood my meaning!"

"What I meant was, I want not only your kidneys, but also your heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, and corneas!"

Damn it!

This old immortal.

He was almost minced into meat by the Paper Figures.

His stomach was already cut open, and he was still talking tough.

Who gave him the courage?

Liang Jingru!?

The Netherworld Paper Figures cast a blood curse, continuously compressing his flesh, and his body began to burst inch by inch... "No!"

"I cannot die!"

"I must exchange for a new life, I want to be reborn!"

The old man's mouth was full of blood, coughing as he spoke.

He had already taken tons of damage from the Paper Figures!

Lin Mo stroked his chin... "Wait! Something's not right!"
