Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World.

Chapter 372 Ghost Stories of Qing Kingdom: Killing Music and the Zombies of the Frontier Royal Family

All four new players were teleported to the quest world.

Esdeath's vision blurred,

When it became clear again,

The surrounding area consisted of low buildings, houses with blue bricks and four-cornered eaves, wide and flat streets, and merchant flags fluttering overhead.

A gust of wind blew,

Banners fluttered in the wind, but the streets were deserted and shops were closed.

You can even see some houses with their doors and windows tightly shut, the thick iron plates nailed firmly to them.

It was like an airtight iron chamber.

A string of black game text appeared before my eyes.

[Entered [Qing Kingdom Ghost Stories], language module loaded, initiating task search.]

World Rank: Second Order

Scene Description (Musical Zombie): In the Jiangnan region, the practice of transporting corpses is prevalent. The deceased zombie, Old Master Ren, is stolen by a Western pharmacist. After being dissected and injected, he undergoes a mutation, becoming a ferocious and evil zombie far exceeding ordinary zombies.

Main quest: Kill Old Master Ren (the demonic corpse)

Task Rewards: 40,000 reward points and 2,000 contribution points.

"Zombies?"

Esdeath stood in the middle of the street, scanning the empty town.

Never heard of it.

Although the Imperial Arms world possesses extraordinary power, it is beyond the control of humans and instead gathers into monsters called Danger Species.

Ultimately, they are just creatures with strong flesh and blood.

Humans assemble armies to fight against dangerous species, then strip them of their flesh and bones, extracting the extraordinary energy contained within to create various tools.

Therefore,

In Esdeath's view, zombies should be another kind of dangerous species.

For example, the assassin group trained by the Empire seems to have assassins who can control the Imperial Arms [March of the Dead: Eight Chambers].

This Imperial Arm can control corpses, turning them into puppet-like fighting forces.

"Zombies, are they similar to corpses controlled by the dead during their march?"

"It's really interesting that humans can become living corpses after they die... Does that mean we can torture them all over again?"

Esdeath showed no fear whatsoever.

Her mind was filled only with a fanatical fighting spirit, and the thought that weak humans could be transformed into more powerful zombies after death.

For her, this meant an even more exhilarating battle.

Esdeath did not choose to team up.

They were separated from Anya's team and teleported separately to conduct individual trials.

Splash...

The flags were waving violently, and the wind was gradually getting stronger.

It was already evening when a dark cloud hung low and slowly drifted over, covering the entire town.

The light dimmed.

It seems like a harbinger of some kind of environmental change.

From inside the houses lining both sides of the street, creaking and scratching sounds began to emerge, accompanied by soft growls.

obviously,

The iron plates used to block the doors and windows did not protect the house.

"Has the entire town become a dumping ground for corpses?"

Esdeath's lips curled into a smile as she watched the bouncy figures gradually emerge from the house.

Clusters of dark, corpse-like energy followed closely behind the appearing zombies, covering the entire town.

The air was thick with the smell of death.

【Demon Corpse Lv.21】: A corpse infected by a special contaminant [Music Zombie King], possessing weak magic resistance.

"The hunt begins!"

Even corpse-drivers who are used to seeing corpses would tremble with fear upon seeing this scene.

Esdeath, however, resembled a fully armed hunter.

A layer of frost appeared on the soles of my feet. I pushed off with all my might, using the recoil to propel myself forward.

It was like a tiger among sheep.

……

Inside the game room,

Fang Yi, who was watching the new player, twitched his lips and looked at the tall, beautiful woman with a queen-like demeanor who seemed like a clueless newbie, and was quite speechless.

"Although Esdeath possesses extremely formidable combat abilities in the Teigu world, the extraordinary energy contained within a Dangerous Species, judging from its rank, is not even as strong as chakra."

"These monsters, which were bitten to death by the music zombies and transformed into demonic corpses, are all genuine second-tier creatures."

The ghost stories of Qing Kingdom are at a very high level of energy level within the second-tier world.

Music Zombie

What appear to be ordinary zombies, the product of injections, are actually the masterpiece of an entire polluted world.

Just like Muzan Kibutsuji in Demon Slayer, who almost transformed into a perfect being after drinking the medicinal soup.

We must purify the polluted dragon veins as soon as possible and take control of the [Green Kingdom Ghost Affairs] world.

Otherwise, the number of mutated contaminants, similar to the music zombies, will continue to increase.

"really……"

Fang Yi rubbed his temples.

One person fighting against the entire town of zombies, in theory, Esdeath should have a chance of winning if she is careful and cautious.

Even at the very least, we can eliminate hundreds of demonic corpses.

but now,

Esdeath, however, clutched the wounds inflicted by the demonic corpse, her brow furrowed, and hid on the platform of a flat-roofed house.

[You have been scratched by a demonic corpse, and have been given the new status [Demon Corpse Poison], which causes you to lose 50 health points per second for 30 minutes.]

The toxicity spread by the music zombie far surpasses that of ordinary lord zombies of the same rank.

Esdeath's Teigu grants her powerful ice abilities.

However, his physical attribute is only 35 points.

It's not low.

It was roughly on par with the Kage-level masters of the ninja world, but it was still at the level of an ordinary life form and could not resist the demonic corpse poison from the music zombie.

If this continues, her health points will be depleted in a few minutes.

fortunately,

Fang Yi had long considered that the power systems of different worlds could easily lead to unexpected injuries and deaths.

Therefore, a new user guide has been added.

Follow the game instructions

Esdeath opens the shop of [Blue Kingdom Ghost Stories] and finds [Glutinous Rice (Taoist Baptism)], which can remove the poison of the demon corpse.

Remove the poison from the demon corpse.

"This is really troublesome, like a contagious disease, like the plague?"

Esdeath recalled a certain Imperial Arms,

It is said that she was originally given to an outstanding assassin in the Imperial Assassin Organization, but the assassin defected with the Imperial Arms [One-Shot Kill: Murasame].

The feeling of not being able to get my skin scratched by the demon corpse should be the same as fighting Yucun?

Like a knife dancing.

Far from being discouraged, Esdeath became even more excited and thrilled.

A fine layer of frost appeared on the rooftop platform.

The ice-crystal-like armor completely covered Esdeath's proud figure, leaving only her movable joints.

With her long, icy blue hair and eyelashes, and her cool, alluring face,

Like an empress born from ice and snow.

Watching Esdeath fight the demonic corpses again,

Fang Yi nodded with satisfaction, opened the exchange history in the store, and saw that the other party had actually exchanged the essence within [Demon God Manifestation - Demon Essence] in order to quickly restore combat power and remove the demon corpse poison.

"Generally speaking, isn't it the common practice to first test the waters by exchanging for combat techniques, or other relatively inexpensive skills or items?"

The white-haired loli couldn't understand.

For example, the Anya squad, because of their overall stronger strength, was directly teleported to the advanced map of [Frontier Royal Zombies].

They came into contact with Master Qianhe, who was escorting the royal family to the frontier.

Thanks to Anya's mind-reading ability, they quickly learned about the zombies and, following the game's instructions, redeemed items that could counter them.

but,

Erza and Kikyo did not fully believe in the game of reincarnation, so they only exchanged for a piece of armor and two anti-demon arrows.

They would only exchange their core abilities if the authenticity of the reincarnation game was confirmed.

"That's a battle maniac."

Fang Yi was very satisfied and looked at Esdeath with admiration.

If most players were like her, with a simple desire to fight, the entire player team would be much easier to manage.

Shouldn't we take some measures to continue to motivate players?

Thinking of this,

Fang Yi asked, "Afu, stop thinking about eating all day. How's the progress of the [Primal Creatures] I asked you to create?"

"We're still missing two Tier 2 Lord monsters. Once we gather all the materials, we can create a [Zombie] pet."
