Note: Chapter 10/15, the remaining will be in the next few hours~
~~~~~~~~~~
Chapter 148: Ghost-Hunting Squad mission initiated! The cloud leaves no trace—begin!
Astral Express.
Seeing such a grand and fervent scene in the IPC's live stream.
March 7th felt a little parched.
"How do I feel... I've been convinced by her~?"
"I want to pull for Topaz too!"
"Wuwuwu, Stelle, quickly- quickly try to persuade me!"
Stelle scratched her head and said, "March, I remember since the game launched, it seems like there hasn't been a single character you didn't want to pull for?"
March 7th herself was also helpless.
She said, "Yeah, but I really can't help it!"
"The characters Feathered Spirit chose to put in the banner are all so suitable!"
"Even if I didn't have any thoughts at first—like that Argenti, but after finishing the corresponding mission, wuwuwu... I still couldn't help but want to pull!"
"Feathered Spirit, you've really done all sorts of bad things! My wallet is about to be squeezed dry by you!"
Beside her.
Himeko and Old Yang smiled and shook their heads.
Little March was just like this.
Once her emotions got the better of her, she didn't care about anything else and just started pulling.
This also led to her not missing a single character up to now, but there were only a few that she actually cultivated.
"No, no, I can't watch this live stream anymore."
"These IPC people are too inflammatory and deceptive when they talk. If I'm not careful, I'll be tricked by them."
"I'll go watch Little Gui's live stream instead~"
Switching to Little Gui's live stream.
The popularity here was also very high.
Even more than the number of viewers in the IPC's public live stream!
At this moment, Little Gui was controlling herself to fight.
Working with Kafka, as a member of the DoT team.
Judging from her excited expression.
The effect seemed to be pretty good!
"... I'm quite satisfied with my current performance in the game."
"The only regret is that my current skill mechanism really doesn't match Shangshang's mechanism. Before trying it out, I was thinking if I could team up with Shangshang, but it seems that these two characters are not of the same type at all."
"Putting them in the same team is purely like wearing seven-inch shoes with eight-inch feet—awkward!"
Bullet comments rolled in.
...
"She still loves Sushang so much!"
"Although the two characters Sushang and Guinaifen are indeed completely unsuitable to be paired together."
""Double Fanatic's Great Sadness"."
"In the current version, Sushang is almost becoming an entertainment character, but Little Gui is quite strong."
"Little Gui: We all have a bright future!"
...
After cultivating her in-game self to a decent level.
Little Gui opened her messages.
She slowly and deliberately searched through the many messages.
Originally, the first thing to do after the update was to do the main story, but now there was a feeling of a hundred flowers blooming, and she couldn't really say which one was the official main story.
Suddenly.
Little Gui's eyes widened.
Among the many messages.
She saw the message sent by herself!
[Guinaifen: Guess you like:
Ghosts Haunting! A young girl mistakenly enters an abandoned garden, where lonely souls and wild ghosts appear, and the situation is perilous!
Thrilling, exciting, and very scary! Ghosts lurk in the abandoned garden; the scene is breathtaking and suffocating!
[ Live Broadcast ] Spiritual and Mysterious Recording! Two girls mistakenly enter an abandoned garden and are nearly harmed by fierce ghosts! One is pale with fear, the other has been in a coma ever since! Not suitable for viewing under 200 years old!
[ Blockbuster Level ] Unexplained spiritual events frequently occur; a shocking secret is hidden behind the abandoned garden!]
"Huh?"
"This, this, this, this is actually the advertisement I sent!"
"So, the me in the game has also started a live streaming career..."
"It's just that the popularity doesn't seem to be that great, and I still need to send out this kind of advertisement to attract traffic~"
Little Gui continued to select the conversation.
[ I'm very interested, don't go, I'll come find you right away ]
[ Guinaifen: Come quickly, I'm in need of accompany! ]
[ Guinaifen: I'm right here in Aurum Alley, if your family comes and sees a red-haired foreigner, that's me! ]
After this conversation ended.
A prompt popped up below.
[ Do you accept the mission—[A Foxian Tale of the Haunted/Ghostly Grove ]?]
[ Before accepting, you can watch the mission preview short film, click here to play ]
Little Gui was stunned.
Her face instantly lit up with great surprise!
"It's actually... a golden mission!"
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
"I thought it was just a message dialogue menu!"
Little Gui immediately chose to play the preview short film.
Let's see what this mission is about!
The video began.
A scene appeared before her.
It was... Little Gui's outdoor live streaming scene!
Live streaming herself watching her own live stream!
Little Gui was stunned.
She saw herself in the picture looking uneasy at the camera, lowering her voice and saying, "What's up fam, Little Gui here. We've come to the scariest, most haunted place on the Luofu...Fyxestroll Garden"
Halfway through her sentence.
The screen suddenly became snowy.
It seemed to be due to a bad signal or some interference.
"Don't forget to like, follow, and share - or else I'm gonna chicken out!..."
Before she finished speaking.
Along with the rapid shaking of the camera.
A shadow suddenly flashed across the background.
"Did something just run past!"
At this moment.
Sushang also appeared in the camera!
Holding a greatsword in both hands, she bravely stood in front of Little Gui.
"Don't, don't, don't panic!"
"I'm here..."
After speaking.
Sushang looked to the side.
She instantly looked as if she had seen a ghost!
"AHHHHH!!!"
The scene changed.
A green-haired girl appeared in the camera.
But her face was blank, as if possessed by a ghost.
Behind her, there seemed to be wisps of green ghost fire flowing.
Guinaifen, however, seemed completely unaware of the abnormality.
She excitedly ran towards the girl and called out, "Lord Huohuo, you're finally here!"
And behind her.
Two more figures walked out of the darkness.
The woman on the left was tall and imposing, with white hair covering her face.
A pair of heavy dark circles under her eyes, coupled with her lifeless gaze, made Little Gui shrink back involuntarily in fear!
"Ghost!?"
After seeing the girl next to her clearly.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The thin girl who appeared with her had a cold expression on her face.
Her red pupils emitted an unusual light in the darkness.
If it weren't for the previous mission where this character appeared.
In this scene, Little Gui would definitely still think this girl was also a ghost!
"It's Xueyi! Our old acquaintance!"
"She briefly appeared in the main story of the Xianzhou Dan Heng arc before, and her identity is a Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission!"
"Fam should still remember, right? It seems like she will also have a role in this story!"
"Then... the white-haired woman next to her and the girl named Huohuo should also not be ghosts, they are also Judges of the Ten-Lords Commission."
The preview short film ended here.
And Little Gui raised her clenched fist!
She said excitedly, "This mission looks so interesting!"
"Even three Judges of the Ten-Lords Commission have been dispatched at once!"
"And the process of Little Gui and me live-streaming exploring spiritual events... maybe, there really are ghosts!"
"Families, let's do this mission first!"
"I can't wait to know what happened in this story!"
In Little Gui's live stream, they finished watching the preview short film of the [ A Foxian Tale of the Haunted/Ghostly Grove ] mission together.
Even March 7th became interested.
She was eager to try it!
She was thinking whether to experience this mission herself or watch it with Little Gui.
Touching her chin, she muttered to herself, "Hmm... I'll still watch it with Little Gui, this mission looks quite scary, it's better to watch it with everyone."
Suddenly.
Pom-Pom ran over, holding a phone in a panic.
"No!"
"We have to do this mission first!"
"Something that shouldn't be here has appeared on the train again!"
"Following [ A Night of Cosmic Illusions ], this is the second time!"
"Pom-Pom can't stand it. I want to see what this mission is about!"
[ A letter without a signature lies quietly in the train's observation car, its arrival unknown, just as the recipient is unknown. ]
Pom-Pom shared the screen to the projection screen.
And gestured for Stelle to continue the process.
She stepped forward and interacted with the glowing letter.
[ A page of the letter lies quietly on the table in the observation car, its texture and style indicate it's from Xianzhou. ]
[ On the paper, the names of the sender and recipient are all missing, and only a faint ink trace flashes faintly. ]
[ You unfold the letter paper, and the ink trace immediately appears, as if an invisible hand is holding a pen like a sword, writing smoothly. After a moment, the content on the paper is restored. ]
The content of the letter is—
[ Hearing of your return home, the ancient sea inverted, the turbulent waves turned back, you must have regained your old memories. According to the long-standing agreement, we should revisit the old place, recount the past, and have a drink together. ]
Seeing this scene.
Old Yang said, "This should be a mission related to Dan Heng."
"The name is—[ A Cloud Fades ]?"
"Perhaps, Dan Heng and the others are currently doing this mission."
Himeko picked up her phone and said, "I just contacted Dan Heng. Yes, he, Jing Yuan, as well as Blade and Jingliu, are indeed doing this mission."
"Ah? A mission related to the High-Cloud Quintet?" March 7th's eyes lit up.
"Damn it!"
"I want to watch both!"
"If only I had the ability to clone myself."
Himeko smiled slightly and said gently, "It's okay, Little March."
"Dan Heng said that the content of this mission is not that important; it mainly tells the story of the few of them reuniting on the Luofu."
"We can split into two groups."
"Welt and I will pay attention to Dan Heng's past, while you and Stelle can watch Little Gui's live stream."
"If there's anything important, we can remind each other."
March 7th was instantly overjoyed!
She couldn't help but hug Himeko.
"Sister Himeko, you're so good!"
"You understand me so well!"
