Antique Shop Zero: Disfigured School Beauty Becomes a Succubus to Pay Off Debts
Chapter 285 Trading
Medusa quickly asked:
"What kind of deal?"
Cold sweat beaded on Jiang Chaosheng's forehead.
The curse of the Zero Antique Shop is slowly consuming him.
The feeling wasn't pain, but a terrifying emptiness.
It was as if he would disappear from this world completely in a minute or two.
He forced himself to remain calm, glanced in the direction of Antique Shop Zero, and uttered only two words:
"Come with me."
Before he finished speaking, he had already sped off towards the antique shop.
That was his last trump card.
Medusa dared not hesitate, dragging her crumbling body, and followed closely behind.
The "senator" stood still, his brows slightly furrowed.
Why go to an antique shop at this time?
Satan heard several secrets about the Zero Antique Shop from the Cowherd:
First, the antique shop was built when the emperor died;
Second, once the person in charge triggers the curse, even the supreme god cannot save them;
Third, there is a sleeping sculpture in the store, which is extremely terrifying, but fortunately it will not wake up.
Fourth, if a large number of buyers die, the owner will suffer the deepest curse. Zero Antique Shop will give the owner time to recover the forbidden items, delaying the outbreak of the curse.
However, it was merely a delay; the curse remained.
......
But the situation is different now.
Because, with me present, Twilight could not bypass me to contain the eleven forbidden items.
As for that bison sleeping in the clouds?
Similarly, as long as I'm here, no one can take me away!
Even when manipulating human corpses, her combat power is far superior to that of a male prostitute.
I never dared to attack the twilight because I feared the curse of karma.
Now that twilight is about to fall and the Zero Antique Shop is about to close, there is no need to fear the curse of cause and effect.
the most important is--
After Medusa fell into Hell, Twilight could not reach her, much less take her in.
The curse of twilight is bound to erupt.
......
The forbidden items in the shop couldn't save the manager in this state, nor could they save Medusa, who was about to be annihilated.
Then why do they want to go back?
His gaze fell on the eleven forbidden items in Medusa's hands, and he suddenly understood—
The original plan was to trick the items into returning to the antique shop and reclaim them before the curse fully manifested.
Could recycling eleven forbidden items really help ward off the curse?
Satan doesn't understand.
However, since I'm here, I won't have a chance at dusk.
"Trying to leave?"
His voice suddenly turned cold:
"My love, why won't you come to hell with me?"
Instead of chasing Jiang Chaosheng, he attacked Medusa first.
Those eleven forbidden items were in her hands.
How could Medusa possibly have the strength to fight Satan?
They could only frantically defend themselves, desperately clinging to those eleven forbidden items.
That was her bargaining chip in negotiating with Jiang Chaosheng. If Satan took it away, Jiang Chaosheng would die, and she would die too.
But in the end, she was no match for Satan.
After a few moves, Satan seized the opportunity, knocked her away with a single palm strike, and snatched all the forbidden items into his hands.
Medusa glared at him hatefully, then turned and dashed toward the Zero Antique Shop.
At that moment, Satan heard Jiang Chaosheng's mocking laughter:
"Are you in such a hurry to contract the karmic curse?"
Satan paused for a moment, looking at the eleven forbidden items in his hand.
This was stolen; if Huang Hun doesn't die, the karmic curse will inevitably infect him, just as he said.
The sounds of dusk faded into the distance.
"Those eleven forbidden items are for you."
Satan's eyes were filled with disbelief.
He doesn't need these eleven forbidden items at all?
How can he break the curse?
His eyes burned with murderous intent, and he was about to give chase when gunshots rang out.
"Da da da..."
A burst of bullets poured down from the fighter jets in the air.
The Anomaly Management Bureau's ultimate weapon—the Anti-Anomaly Second Generation Spirit Artifact Fighter.
The broken body possessed by Satan had its combat power suppressed to the extreme. Faced with these most powerful self-made weapons in the human world, it had no choice but to temporarily avoid their sharp edge.
A figure leaped from the fighter jet and stood behind Medusa, blocking Satan's path as well.
With slicked-back hair, a black suit, and an overwhelming smell of tobacco, he was a man of many talents.
He glanced at Medusa: "Aren't you going to leave?"
Medusa did not hesitate and quickly retreated.
Even Satan stopped chasing.
With eleven forbidden items in his hands, he didn't believe the manager could cause any more trouble.
After today, the manager will die, the Zero Antique Shop will close, and the beauty will stay with him forever!
He stared coldly at the mortal before him:
"A mere mortal dares to block my way?"
The last one to block my path was called Death.
He has now been dead for thousands of years.
The man lit a cigarette, held it to his lips, and the smoke made him squint slightly, but his tone was calm, as if he were stating something perfectly natural:
"What's there to be afraid of? The last one I wanted to kill was Twilight."
Satan smiled contemptuously:
"A mere manager dares to compare himself to me?"
"You will die at the hands of dusk."
The man's voice was calm as still water, as if he were stating an undeniable truth.
Satan's gaze grew increasingly icy.
He did indeed obtain the eleven forbidden items, but from that moment on, he was also tainted by the karmic curse of the antique shop.
The body of the councilor he occupied—
While it appears that the councilor was killed by the manager, it can also be considered that he was killed by a karmic curse.
Because the person in charge is the one who executes cause and effect.
But the manager is definitely going to die this time.
The curse will not be fulfilled as long as he dies.
Having figured this out, Satan relaxed and casually asked:
"Who are you?"
The man's eyes suddenly transformed into a pair of golden vertical pupils, and a powerful force erupted from his body.
He put one hand in his pocket and used the other to take the cigarette from his lips, speaking each word steadily:
"Abnormality Management Bureau - Director, Cao Ye."
A murderous smile slowly crept onto Satan's lips:
"So you have that cat's power."
Before he finished speaking, his body vanished from the spot.
The next instant, he appeared in front of Cao Ye, his fist carrying devastating power, aimed straight at Cao Ye's face:
"Using the power of the Yin spirits to fight the ruler of hell? Mortal, you are foolish!"
Cao Ye crossed his arms to block.
"boom--"
A sonic boom-like explosion occurred.
Cao Ye's figure retreated rapidly, his feet carving two deep furrows in the ground.
He shook his numb arm and muttered something to himself:
"That's really powerful."
Cao Ye took off his coat and casually threw it on the ground.
He unbuttoned the collar of his shirt, rolled up his sleeves, and revealed his bronze skin.
He swallowed the blood that had risen to his throat.
.....
Inside the Zero Antique Shop.
Jiang Chaosheng looked down at his body—the strange, sticky black shadow had climbed up to his neck.
Medusa was in no better condition; her fair skin was covered with fine cracks and looked like it could shatter at any moment.
Her breathing grew weaker and weaker, and she managed to ask, barely holding on:
"Sir... what kind of deal can save me?"
Jiang Chaosheng hesitated for a moment, then slowly opened his mouth, uttering only two words:
"free."
Medusa was taken aback, a struggle appearing on her pretty face:
"Does it have to be...freedom?"
She had no freedom in the palace of the sea god.
After being cursed by Athena, she had no freedom.
Even after being resurrected by the Cowherd, she still had no freedom.
Even as she was about to die, she was still Satan's pet.
"You can choose to go to hell."
Jiang Chaosheng's tone was devoid of any emotion, as if he were presenting an option.
Medusa struggled for a long time before finally asking:
"Sir... what kind of freedom?"
Jiang Chaosheng's gaze swept around the antique shop, his voice as steady as if he were reading a contract:
"Based on the current situation, you should be unable to travel except on rainy nights."
Medusa was stunned:
"Wh...what?"
Jiang Chaosheng said:
"From this day forward, your soul is bound to Antique Shop Zero."
However, you will be enslaved by the rules of Zero Antique Shop.
Fortunately, according to the rules of the Zero Antique Shop, the owner is immortal.
The tricks the gigolo used on you are insignificant compared to the rules.
If you become the owner of the antique shop, the spell that the Cowherd cast on Medusa will become ineffective.
Jiang Chaosheng himself will be spared the curse because the antique shop changes hands.
Medusa will not be cursed after becoming the new master, because she herself is the thirteenth forbidden object.
To her, it was nothing more than twelve forbidden items lost outside.
As for why Jiang Chaosheng couldn't just take Medusa into the antique shop?
Because the curse has already taken effect, it will not stop unless all the lost forbidden items are retrieved at once.
Therefore, Medusa is the only living being suitable to sign the antique shop transfer agreement.
Any living being that signs the contract with Antique Shop Zero will immediately be struck by the curse.
At that point, Zero Antique Shop might actually be locked down.
obviously.
The sealing off of the Zero Antique Shop was not the outcome Jiang Chaosheng desired.
because......
Zero Antique Shop is the only thing that protects humanity.
Jiang Chaosheng extended two fingers, making a pinching motion.
An ancient parchment slowly emerged between his two fingers.
He looked at Medusa, his voice calm and clear:
"Sign it. From now on, you are the manager of Zero Antique Shop."
