197: If you don't cheat the poor, it means you have a conscience.
“Why are you all just standing there? Go wash up!”
The Living race girl’s face was flushed, looking very embarrassed.
“But we’re so dirty, with so much grime. Won’t we make the hot spring dirty…”
It wasn’t because they were shy.
The reason was exactly as she said.
They were brought over like pigs, and after being killed, they would be scalded with water once, which counted as being cleaned.
There was no need for them to wash up.
Lin Mo frowned.
“Do I have to say it a second time? You’re dirty if you don’t wash.”
Hill nodded.
“Master, I will wash myself until I’m fragrant…”
That’s more like it… [The girls are very grateful for the bathhouse you provided. Your Morality value has increased by 600 points.]
[Current Morality value: 1200]
Lin Mo was stunned.
Good heavens, saving their lives didn’t give him as much Morality value as inviting them to take a bath.
It seemed that they desired dignity more than life itself.
[Your Morality value has increased to 1000.]
[Congratulations! You have obtained the title: Moral Saint.]
[You can now use Morality to enlighten others.]
[Currently available targets for enlightenment: Dong Xiaowan, Nie Xiaoqian, Dilireba, Amaterasu Hime, Zhan Hongchen.]
Lin Mo stroked his chin.
Why couldn’t Blood Wolf Bart and Lilith be enlightened?
He thought for a second.
He immediately understood the reason.
Blood Wolf Bart belonged to the Blood Wolf race; he was a living creature.
And Lilith, who had died not long ago, was revived by his Living Being Decree, making her also a living human being.
Even if they had entered the immortal realm, they were still considered human sovereigns.
As for Dong Xiaowan, Nie Xiaoqian, Dilireba, Amaterasu Hime, and Zhan Hongchen, these five had been dead for a long time, their bodies decayed, and they had long since lost their vitality.
Even using the Living Being Decree couldn’t revive them.
These five, even if they reached the immortal realm, would be Ghost Immortals.
Or rather, when he entered this dungeon, his chosen state as an undead race was similar to their current situation.
However, because his Morality value increased to 1 or more, he recovered from an undead state to a human form.
Not only did his attributes increase,
but flesh also grew on his body, and his attributes doubled.
If that’s the case,
using Morality value on these Ghost Servants,
would it also be able to restore them from their undead state to human form?
Lin Mo felt it was very possible.
So he chose Nie Xiaoqian.
[Using 50 Morality value.]
[Ghost. Nie Xiaoqian → Luoshen. Immortal, True Immortal returns to her rightful place, bestowed the name Luoshen, all attributes increased by 1000%.]
It worked!
And it was a 10-fold increase!
Lin Mo was shocked!!!
The Ghost Servants could only increase their realm now, and could no longer fully evolve by changing their names.
Even with honor points, he hadn’t expected they could be immortalized again.
Awesome!
[Ghost. Dong Xiaowan → Paper Crane. Immortal, True Immortal returns to her rightful place, bestowed the name Paper Crane, all attributes increased by 1000%.]
[Ghost. Dilireba → Jingjue. Immortal, True Immortal returns to her rightful place, bestowed the name Jingjue, all attributes increased by 1000%.]
[Ghost. Amaterasu Hime → Amaterasu. Immortal, True Immortal returns to her rightful place, bestowed the name Amaterasu, all attributes increased by 1000%.]
[Ghost. Zhan Hongchen → Hongchen. Immortal, True Immortal returns to her rightful place, bestowed the name Hongchen, all attributes increased by 1000%.]
[Current Morality value: 1000]
“My Lord…”
The five Ghost Servants had become true Heavenly Immortal Maidens, all gracefully exuding immortal aura, without any of their previous gloom.
“All of you, go soak in the hot spring.”
“As you command…”
The five great Immortal Maidens nodded affectionately, shedding their mortal dust, and also entered the hot spring pool to bathe.
Three days later… [The girls are amazed at how low your moral bottom line is, and they also enjoy it with you. Your Morality value has decreased by 200 points.]
[Your title ‘Moral Saint’ has been revoked.]
[Current Morality value: 800]
After the bath, Lin Mo withdrew the hot spring skill.
These three days passed like a flash, every day in a daze, not knowing what he was doing.
It felt a bit like King Zhou.
By that afternoon,
Ghost Knight came knocking.
“Brother Lin, the meat has been bought. It’s all rotten, parasitic, low-quality meat.”
“Why didn’t you buy some normal meat? Can the common people eat it without worry?”
Lin Mo spoke righteously.
[Due to your criticism of negative social phenomena, Morality value has increased by 1 point.]
Ghost Knight: “…”
“No, Brother Lin, the normal meat trading place, the auction house, was destroyed by you. We can only buy scraps that the lower class eats.”
“Oh, is that so.”
“Never mind. Anyway, our meat isn’t sold to the common people, so it doesn’t harm our hidden virtues. It’s only for the high-ranking officials and nobles to eat.”
Ghost Knight: “…”
…Lin Mo instructed Ghost Knight to pour all the purchased meat into the blood pool.
Ghost Knight was about to order his subordinates to wash the meat one by one,
to remove the dirty, maggot-infested parts,
and leave the edible ones.
But Lin Mo stopped him directly.
“No need. What’s dirty won’t make you sick if you eat it.”
Saying that, he took out a syringe from his spatial storage.
He ordered to retrieve only one corpse.
He grabbed it and injected it into the corpse’s buttock.
“Brother Lin, what are you injecting?”
Ghost Knight was puzzled.
Lin Mo chuckled.
“My exclusive formula, compound no. 9.”
“Alright, inject 10 doses into each corpse and send them to the royal family.”
“It smells so bad, will the royal family accept it? They might not, and they might even arrest us and throw us in jail.”
Ghost Knight worried.
Lin Mo patted his shoulder to comfort him: “Don’t worry. With my secret formula added, it smells bad and tastes bad.”
Ghost Knight: ?
“No, I mean it smells bad but tastes good.”
Saying that, he took out 50 million undead coins from his spatial storage.
“Take this. When the royal quality inspector says it’s not up to standard, just hand him the money.”
Ghost Knight: !!!!!
Ghost Knight fell to his knees with a thud, the ghost fire in his eye sockets trembling with excitement:
“Godfather! You’re dipping into your own pocket for the factory! These 50 million are clearly your private stash!”
He hugged Lin Mo’s thigh, his voice choked:
“Old You will follow you for life! Even if it costs me this ghost life, I will deliver this batch of goods to the Imperial City!”
Lin Mo helped him up, a gentle smile on his face, and said softly: “Our factory will specialize in high-end products from now on. Don’t worry, you’ll definitely make money following me!”
Similarly,
Ghost Knight also had a smile on his face.
He kept saying yes, yes, yes.
But in his heart, he thought Lin Mo was a complete idiot.
He actually managed to fool him so thoroughly.
These 50 million.
5 million would be enough to bribe the quality inspector.
The rest would go straight into his own pocket.
And the job would still be done beautifully.
Pure bliss.
