The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?!-Chapter 1182 - 737: The Cashier and the Tomb Guardian’s Conversation (2)
"Hurry up and eat it, so I don’t regret it later."
He turned his head and said.
Liu Zheng picked up the peach, and the item description popped up.
"Name: Unripe True Dragon Blood Peach (Disposable)"
"Type: Item"
"Quality: Perfect"
"Effect One: Recover from injuries and remove poison status."
"Effect Two: Grants the player ’True Dragon’ bloodline; if the player already has ’True Dragon’ bloodline, the bloodline level is increased by one."
"Note: Who said only monkeys like peaches."
"Can be taken out of the instance: Yes"
"Warning! The ’True Dragon’ bloodline conflicts with the player’s current status; forcibly acquiring it will result in uncontrollable consequences."
"Fine, you better keep it for yourself."
He also sighed and tossed the peach back to the Earth God.
"You rascal, don’t you recognize treasure?"
The Earth God asked.
"It’s not about recognizing treasure, it’s about not being able to handle it. My bloodline is quite overbearing; if I awaken another bloodline, I’m afraid there won’t be a shred of humanity left."
Liu Zheng shook his head and said.
"So overbearing indeed. What’s the name of your bloodline?"
The Earth God asked.
"Black Mountain Goat Cub, have you heard of it, Earth God?"
"Never heard of it. Well, since you can’t handle it, it should continue to grow and mature."
The Earth God tossed the peach back on the tree and transformed the peach tree back into a Peach Rod.
"Even though I can’t handle that blessing, there are others I can, right? You surely have other treasures, Earth Spirit."
He said with a cheeky grin.
"You clever devil. Take it, take it."
The Earth God took out a Yellow Talisman.
"What’s this?"
Liu Zheng received the Yellow Talisman, but there was no item description.
"This is a Land God Talisman; as long as you hold the Divine Talisman and say ’Please assist me, Earth Spirit of this land,’ you will receive the augmentation of the land beneath your feet. Different earth, different augmentation."
"If it’s unclaimed land, it will generally respond; if it’s claimed land, maybe not."
The Earth God explained.
"Can it compare with the True Dragon Blood Peach?"
He asked with some skepticism.
"Certainly not, but it’s not far off. If you know the Mountain Shifting Technique and use it in conjunction with this Talisman, you’ll have the strength to crush enemies with the power of a mountain."
The Earth God said.
"Just barely acceptable."
Liu Zheng put away the Land God Talisman.
He wondered if the Panda knew any Mountain Shifting Technique, because if it did, this could be an extra trump card for it.
"Alright, you should be going."
The Earth God waved his hand and said.
"Then see you next time, Earth Spirit. Remember to save that True Dragon Blood Peach for me and don’t eat it yourself."
He chuckled.
"In your dreams, I’d rather feed it to the bugs than give it to you."
The Earth God rolled his eyes.
"Haha."
Liu Zheng saluted with his tentacle and walked out through the Bronze Gate.
Crossing the bridge this time did not involve dodging stalactites, and the other side of the bridge had transformed into a rock wall like the outside.
"Have you completed your task?"
The Copper Face appeared and asked.
"Just barely considered completed maybe."
Liu Zheng shrugged and said.
The task involving the Nine Dragon Heaven Centipede was completed, but his primary delivery job was not finished, and who knows how the restaurant would deal with that. It’s possible that the Memorial Medal for the Three-time Outstanding Employee would be used up just like this.
Thinking about this made him somewhat uncomfortable.
If it were Liu Zheng’s own item, he’d use it and let the old go to make room for the new.
But the Memorial Medal belonged to Niu Ma, and every time it went to deliver dangerous items itself, it never took it. Now it’s about to be used in Liu Zheng’s hands.
"You actually succeeded; it’s shocking the king was willing to exchange the Nine Dragon Heaven Centipede with you."
The Copper Face looked as if his eyes were about to pop out.
"It wasn’t a gift, it was an exchange. My Taoist Divine Sword was taken by your king to suppress the coffin."
Liu Zheng stressed.
"Ha, if the king hadn’t agreed to exchange, you might have been used to suppress the coffin yourself."
The Copper Face naturally knew the power of the Heavenly Martial King.
No matter what tricks this kid might have up his sleeve, trying to take the Nine Dragon Heaven Centipede by force was impossible.
"Well, that’s your business. Anyway, I’ve got it."
He said proudly.
"Alright, alright, I’ll concede you’re tough. Don’t forget your promise to me: if you can deal with the Gongyang Family, I’ll give you a big reward."
The Copper Face reminded him.
"Instead of revenge, why don’t you think about finding your family? If you can find some of your kin, at least you’ll have someone to sweep your grave and chat with during holidays."
Liu Zheng advised.
"You’ve got a point."
The Copper Face listened and spat out a bracelet made of teeth from his mouth.
"Name: Human Tooth Bracelet"
"Type: Equipment"
"Quality: Excellent"
"Effect 1: Reduces negative effects of Nightmare Town, Zhu You, Poisonous Gu, Divination, and other spells on the player."
"Effect 2: Alerts you when a Witch True Descendant is within a hundred meters."
"Note: Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"
"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"
"This is a bracelet I made using the teeth of my parents, wife, and children, to remind myself to never forget my tribe’s annihilation. Now I lend it to you, you mustn’t lose or damage it."
The bronze face said reluctantly.
"Don’t worry, I will take good care of it."
Liu Zheng promised.
"Alright, you may go now, go."
The bronze face disappeared into the stone wall, which then split open into a tall hole.
He walked into the hole, and when he came out, he was back in the cemetery.
The Skinny Horse was waiting for him outside.
Liu Zheng smiled, about to speak, when suddenly a chilling sensation struck him.
He stared in a direction, and the cashier was walking towards him step by step.
And after he blinked, the cashier was right in front of him.
"I didn’t expect an excellent newcomer like you to be overdue, it’s really unfortunate."
The cashier shook his head.
"Why do I feel like you’re somewhat gloating?"
Liu Zheng squinted his eyes.
He had been a bit afraid of this guy when he wasn’t overdue, but now that he was overdue, he felt it wasn’t that bad.
That’s probably what they call giving up.
"Because I find witnessing your downfall more interesting than witnessing the rise of Legends."
The cashier said frankly.
"Indeed."
Liu Zheng acknowledged his statement.
"Considering you were overdue in the course of a mission, I’ll give you half an hour to settle your affairs. So, where would you like your life’s countdown to start?"
The cashier asked with interest.
"I..."
Liu Zheng didn’t have time to speak before the Skinny Horse stepped in between them.
"What? You want to protect him?"
The cashier looked at the Skinny Horse.
"Neigh~"
The Skinny Horse snorted.
"You can’t protect him, but your master might be able to. Yet, does he dare intervene in the restaurant’s affairs?"
The cashier sneered.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang from far away, yet the bullet shot out from behind Liu Zheng.
"I wouldn’t dare intervene in the restaurant’s affairs, but you don’t deserve to take people from the cemetery."
The Skinny Horse caught the bullet in its mouth and spoke with the Tomb Guardian’s voice.
"It seems we’re not welcome here, let’s go, newcomer."
The cashier raised a hand.
"You don’t deserve to take anyone from the cemetery."
The Tomb Guardian added.
"What? The cemetery wants to compete with the restaurant for people?"
The cashier’s face turned cold.
"The cemetery isn’t interested in competing for anyone, after all, you’ll all eventually come."
The Tomb Guardian said calmly.
"But casually sending people to find things and casually taking people away, the cemetery is not a public toilet, it’s not that casual."
"Then what do you suggest?"
The cashier asked with a frown.
"For everything he takes from the cemetery, he must return as much in kind. If he can’t return it, he must work for the cemetery."
The Tomb Guardian said.
"The restaurant will send someone."
The cashier said.
"I don’t trust anyone else."
The Tomb Guardian shook his head.
It’s not just bias towards Liu Zheng; he genuinely doesn’t trust other restaurant employees.
Or rather, he doesn’t trust anyone outside the cemetery, Liu Zheng is just an exception.
"The restaurant will consider it."
The cashier said in an unchanged tone. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
"The cemetery doesn’t want consideration, only a promise. If you refuse to promise, the cemetery will lower the restaurant’s credibility."
The Tomb Guardian said.
"You really want to do this?"
"Why wouldn’t I?"
The Tomb Guardian replied.
"You always need the cemetery, but the cemetery never needs you."
