191: Lin Mo's social status was downgraded again, and he became a beggar.
That skull with fire on its head might be the General Manager… Lin Mo wasn't sure.
He could only continue to observe for now.
“But then again, what’s wrong with the Sentient Saint of the Chuangsheng Country?”
“Why would she throw herself into this dungeon?”
The more Lin Mo thought about it now, the less he understood.
If this was their nation-protecting dungeon,
guarding their planet,
then the Undead should also be a dungeon force they invited.
So why defeat this force?
This clearly didn't make sense.
After a careful analysis,
if there was a beautiful woman in front of you, inviting you to seek some thrills,
like riding a roller coaster or entering a haunted house,
then the purpose would be to take advantage of her screams to hug her and solidify the relationship, right?
If viewed from this angle,
did the Sentient Saint like him?
Lin Mo: “…”
This seemed highly unscientific.
Suddenly, Lin Mo realized that she didn't like him; perhaps the Undead had taken control of this nation-protecting dungeon.
The Living race couldn't drive them away, so they entered the Multiverse Battlefield to find an opportunity to defeat the enemy.
And the plan they found to defeat the enemy was him.
So,
she invited him into the dungeon, promising to submit to him as long as he could clear it.
He suddenly shivered.
“Who! Come out, you sneaky bastard!”
The General Manager instantly sensed Lin Mo’s presence.
Since he had been discovered, there was no need to hide.
Lin Mo walked out boldly… [Slaughterhouse General Manager. Ghost Knight]
[Race: Undead]
[Affiliated Nation: Calamity Nation]
[Realm: Saint Sovereign]
[Strength: 39 trillion]
[Agility: 19.9 trillion]
[Spirit: 22 trillion]
[HP: 900 trillion]
[Skills: Hellfire, Ghost Violence, Greed, Plunder, Craving for Money, Upper-Class Communication, High Cognition]
[Description: An upper-class, successful individual, fond of scholars, refined and elegant. Of course, this is only to other upper-class individuals; his true nature is extremely greedy, valuing money above all else.]
He scrutinized Lin Mo's attire.
“So it’s a laborer from here. Tell me, how was my factory destroyed!”
“I can tell you, but you must agree to one condition.”
“A mere slave actually dares to demand conditions? Does he not know his place!”
Immediately, the surrounding Undead burst into laughter.
Lin Mo was too lazy to waste words with so many of them.
He directly ordered Taotie to continue devouring.
Taotie's mouth curved into an eerie smile, and his spade-shaped tail instantly split into dozens of tentacles.
These tentacles shot out like nimble snakes, each precisely coiling around an Undead soldier.
Before the soldiers could even struggle, they were dragged into the gaping maw at the base of his tail.
The crunching sounds were incessant, and Taotie elegantly wiped the corner of his mouth, as if enjoying a feast.
In a blink of an eye, the entire Undead guard隊 was devoured, not even a bone shard left.
[You have successfully killed “Undead Demon”, gaining 30 billion experience.]
…[You have successfully killed “Slaughterhouse Accountant”, gaining 30 billion experience.]
[You have obtained: Slaughterhouse Factory Seal]
[Daily Quest: Failed]
[As your factory has completely shut down, you have successfully fallen to the lowest rung of society.]
[Your current identity: Beggar]
[As you are currently a ‘Beggar’, you are starving and on the verge of death. Entering starvation countdown: 59:59]
Lin Mo: “…”
Beggar!?
For a moment, Lin Mo didn't know whether being a laborer or a beggar was better.
Of course, that wasn't the point.
The point was, this dungeon had a concept of social status… Amidst the shattered ruins, fresh blood stained the broken concrete floor dark red.
The General Manager's rusty hearse lay overturned in a pool of blood, its windows shattered, the body covered in claw marks.
Several wisps of ghostly blue fire drifted among the wreckage, illuminating black bloodstains splattered on the wall.
Taotie's tail swept through the blood, creating ripples of crimson.
“You demon! What exactly do you want to do! You destroyed the factory, and now you have no job either! Just wait to die!”
“Ah ah ah ah! The most foolish people in the world are the lower class! Give them food, a way to live, and they don't even know gratitude!”
“Since that's the case, then just die, let's all die together! Anyway, it's all death!!!”
The General Manager watched all of this hysterically, roaring incessantly.
Venturing his emotions.
After all, the strength of the two sides was too disparate.
Fighting?
He definitely couldn't win.
“You're very verbose…”
Since there were still 59 hours, he would use those 59 hours to finish the dungeon.
No more nonsense, no more blabbering.
“Taotie, you've eaten so much, are you full?”
“Huh? My Lord, do we still need to eat him? Didn't you say he was still useful?”
Lin Mo glared at her.
“Alright, alright, I'll eat him right now!”
Taotie licked his tongue again.
This Ghost Knight in front of him looked very delicious.
“Eat me? Then eat. Hmph, I don't care if I die!”
“Anyway, I bought a large insurance policy, so I'll get compensation even if I die! Ah ha ha ha ha!”
Lin Mo: “!”
Indeed, just as the description said, he valued money above all else.
“Wait a minute!”
Taotie stopped.
“What? Afraid to make a move? Do you think I have a lot of money? You want to kidnap and extort me, but it's useless. No one can take my money except me.”
“And to prevent others from spending my money, I've already killed all my relatives, friends, and parents around me.
I! The Ghost Knight! Have no weaknesses! Ah ha ha ha ha!”
Lin Mo was also stunned.
What he said made sense, but it also seemed to have some problems.
“Then I ask you, since you're dead, what's the use of money?”
“Money, at least the money is there! A beggar who's about to starve to death wouldn't understand!”
“Oh, I was shallow. But what if I could help you earn even more money? Would you be very happy?”
Ghost Knight: “?????”
“Of course! If you can help me earn several times the factory’s worth of money, our grievances will be wiped clean, and I will even pledge allegiance to you.
But, can a beggar who's about to die do that!?”
“You don't need to worry about that.”
Lin Mo raised his hand and activated [Holy Key].
The Chuangsheng Country's treasury opened in the void.
He casually threw a [Holy Kettle] to the other party.
[Holy Kettle]
[Realm: Celestial Immortal]
[Item Description: A kettle that can continuously flow with water to replenish HP, refilling one kettle of water every 24 hours.]
Ghost Knight: “!”
“You actually possess the wealth of a kingdom!?”
The treasury door had just opened, leaving a small gap.
It instantly stunned the Ghost Knight.
“How about it?”
“Your wealth far exceeds my imagination!?”
“Adoptive Father above! Receive a bow from your child!”
