Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World.

Chapter 16 Information Disclosure

[Server Channel]

Mysterious Merchant: Information is being released in light of the players' breach of the outer perimeter of the ruined castle.

Information about the Ghost General, and the guaranteed drop of purple equipment, appeared in the message bar at the top of the channel.

in an instant,

The announcement at the top of the screen caused an uproar among all the players.

The initial enthusiasm of the players waned due to the excessive consumption of resources during the attack on the castle ruins, including the waste of countless life and magic potions, and most were considering giving up.

This announcement reversed the previous downward trend.

Not only was he not afraid of the Ghost General's terrifying strength, but he felt hot all over and his blood was boiling.

"I was worried that after using up hundreds of reward points on life potions, the Ghost General wouldn't drop anything, but it turns out it's guaranteed to drop purple equipment?"

"Level 10 purple equipment can sell for 20,000 reward points in the shop!"

"Whether we live a life of poverty or luxury depends on whether we can slay the Ghost General!"

Currently, all players can be broadly divided into three types.

One type consists of ninjas from the five great nations with impeccable lineage, possessing outstanding talent and rich combat awareness, making them the top tier of players.

Secondly, there was the noble class, a mixed bag, including employed samurai and wandering ninjas.

The nobles, relying on gold and silver jewelry and spending money, barely managed to support the latter two groups, forming a team that was barely no weaker than the ninjas.

Finally, there is the cooperation between ordinary people and merchants. They have neither outstanding talents nor the financial resources to spend money, but they make up the majority of the player team, numbering as many as three or four hundred people.

Everyone wants to hunt down the Ghost General.

The most enthusiastic players are those from the lower classes, hoping to seize this opportunity to rise above the nobility and ninjas.

The white-haired loli was completely bewildered, with the illusion that the world had broken down.

"Shouldn't they have been terrified and fled in the face of the powerful Ghost General?"

I simply can't understand the thought process of these players.

In a world once consumed by pollution, even the most determined warriors, even those granted the ability to resurrect or the talent to rewind time, would still flee and fear when faced with a powerful enemy they could not defeat.

"What exactly happened?"

"Because of desire."

Fang Yi smiled and pointed to the excited players behind the screen, saying, "The lowest-class commoners can only painstakingly cultivate wasteland, eating chaff and wild vegetables every day, while most of their food is taken away by the nobles."

"Ninjas risk their lives for meager rewards. Despite putting in a thousand times the effort to train, they are easily crushed by the geniuses of powerful clans and bloodline limits."

"The emergence of the cycle game gives them a chance to escape their current situation."

"When you're hungry, you want a bowl of thin porridge."

"After a full meal, they want luxurious clothes and a spacious house."

"After moving into the luxurious courtyard, they wanted servants and maids to wait on them."

"After seeing ninjas who could split mountains and shatter rocks, I wanted to pursue greater strength."

Fang Yi smiled as usual and said, "Even the most determined warrior will despair because of the Demon King's power, but desire will never be restrained by anything, it will only continue to grow."

"In the face of desire, even the sources of pollution that constantly devour the world seem insignificant."

The entire ruined castle was filled with the deafening sounds of battle.

The Ghost General can consume soul power to continuously create ghost soldiers.

Players can also revive, although it consumes reward points. However, the reward points are replenished after killing the ghost soldiers, thus creating a cycle.

"I am Mabui. I have received the latest order from Lord Raikage: we must successfully hunt down the Ghost General and absolutely cannot let other ninja villages beat us to it."

"Lord Raikage has allocated 500 million yen as funding for this operation."

The tall and voluptuous Samui accepted the trade request from the strategist Mabui and received a reward of one thousand points.

Open the game store.

She finally got the narrow-bladed short sword she had been eyeing for a long time.

A total of four thousand reward points.

【Swift Blade】, a level 5 blue weapon, increases agility by 5 points and comes with a swiftness buff, which enhances movement speed by 10 points.

Samui, who was holding the short knife, also had blonde hair and large breasts, but her slightly narrow eyes and shoulder-length short hair gave her a cool and alluring look.

Feeling the changes the weapon brought to his body, Samui lightly touched the ground with his toes.

For an instant.

He was already behind Omoi, a short knife at his neck.

Omoi was so shocked that he didn't even have time to react. If Samoi had made a move, he would have already returned to town and resurrected.

"So strong!"

Omoi swallowed hard; this speed was almost approaching Samoi's actual strength.

Jonin.

Samui is a swordsman with dazzling sword skills, and before entering the cycle of reincarnation, he was no match for her.

The cycle of reincarnation games—the terrifying rate of growth is truly mesmerizing.

……

"I got a blue skill!"

North of the ruined castle, Chojuro's face flushed red.

The corpse of a ghost squad leader slowly dissipated, and the dropped items, enveloped in a blue ball of light, appeared.

His hands trembled as he picked up the ball of light and examined the properties of the falling object.

The skill scroll [Silver Light Slash] delivers a powerful downward thrust while jumping, creating a shockwave.

This course is limited to professionals in close-contact settings.

"It's a sword technique!"

Chojuro's breathing became rapid.

After the reshuffling of Kirigakure, he also showed amazing talent and was chosen by Mei Terumi as the successor to the Twin Swords Hiramekarei.

Therefore, while practicing ninjutsu, he also continuously studied the use of ninja swords.

Until entering the cycle of reincarnation,

He discovered that the notes left by the renowned Ninja Swordsmen of the past were nothing more than a pile of garbage that should have been swept into the sewers.

It was just meaningless slashing based on brute force and chakra amplification.

His profession was a wandering samurai, a melee swordsmanship profession that took him 1500 reward points and three resets to finally become a skilled swordsman.

The initial bonus skill, [Dark Slash], is a swordsmanship that combines one's physical strength, slashing power, and energy; it is the strongest path worth pursuing.

After learning the technique, Chojuro charged into the encirclement of the ghost soldiers and leaped high into the air.

boom!

Chojuro fell from a great height and crashed into the ground like a stray bullet.

The two green-quality longswords, imbued with terrifying energy, burst forth upon touching the ground.

A shockwave rippled outwards from the center.

The ghostly soldiers within range were all knocked off the ground, their ghostly aura wafting through their bodies.

The energy waves were like sharp blades, shredding the ghost soldiers to pieces.

"Very powerful swordsmanship."

Mei Terumi praised softly.

Upon hearing the Mizukage's words, Chojuro scratched his head shyly and said worriedly, "Mizukage, the Samsara Game is simply a money-devouring monster. Not only do you need money for equipment, but you also need reward points to upgrade skills after purchasing them. The Mysterious Merchant is simply a monster that harvests money."
