Zhang Yanhang had been hunting monsters in Ashen World for so long that he subconsciously considered October 9th as the date of the transmission channel’s activation, but in reality, the last ti the transmission channel had opened was at nine o’clock on October 8th.
"I had never questioned the fact that the transmission channel would open on the 13th, when it is actually supposed to close. Moreover, this ti the channel opened half an hour earlier, all the way at eight thirty.
If it opens earlier by half an hour a few more tis, I reckon I’ll be entering Ashen World before even having dinner."
Zhang Yanhang felt that, overall, the channel opening earlier was a good thing because it ant the channel was active for a longer period since the closing ti remained unchanged.
This also ant that Zhang Yanhang’s free ti in Ashen World increased because as long as the transmission channel was open, he could freely decide when to leave Ashen World.
"I haven’t dread about the tattered-dressed young lady for a long ti. She seems to be starting to miss . After I return this ti, I will see if I can solve this problem by actively searching for this tattered-dressed young lady on my own initiative."
Apart from solving the issue of the tattered-dressed young lady, Zhang Yanhang felt that he might also address issues related to a female ghost.
After Zhang Yanhang awoke with multiple choices every day, he triggered one or even several extraordinary encounters every day, and over ti, he had naturally collected quite a few Spiritual Artifacts. Although he couldn’t bring them to Ashen World, using them to deal with a minor female ghost would certainly not be a problem.
Currently, Zhang Yanhang had three Spiritual Artifacts suitable for dealing with the female ghost: the first was the previously ntioned Copper Coin Sword, which caused extra damage to ghosts; the second was the Soul Suppressing Bell, which mainly targeted the soul and spirit.
The third artifact, called the Demon Refining Pot, could capture various spirits, Resentful Spirits, and Demonic Beasts and contain them inside the pot; this artifact was the most powerful and also the most useful for Zhang Yanhang.
Only by keeping the female ghost by his side could Zhang Yanhang begin to do whatever he wanted as much as he desired.
"But all this will have to wait until I return from Ashen World. So, I choose Option One and go to Ashen World imdiately."
With the boost from choosing Option One, this ti, Zhang Yanhang was determined to kill all the monsters in Raccoon City, completely clear Raccoon City, and promote to Second Tier with a hundred percent completion of the Ashen Treasure Box.
After making his choice, ti started to flow again, and suddenly, Zhang Yanhang found himself looking from the finely decorated ceiling of his bedroom to the mottled and dilapidated ceiling of Room 301 in Dulda Apartnt.
Zhang Yanhang took a deep breath of the air in Raccoon City, a mixture of decay and the stench of corpses, and imdiately choked, "Cough, cough, cough!"
Zhang Yanhang, who initially wanted to revisit the fresh air of Raccoon City, felt he couldn’t bear this ordeal, so he instantly reactivated the air filter on his Energy Shield, "I thought I had gotten used to it, but maybe I haven’t really."
He had indeed gotten used to the unique sll of Raccoon City’s air before, but after spending a long ti in the Main World, he had beco unaccustod to it again.
It’s like being forced to use an open-air outhouse. Initially, you have to cover your nose to enter, but after a while, you might find the sll in the outhouse not as pungent as at the beginning.
This isn’t because the sll of the outhouse has lessened, but because your nose, in order to adapt, has voluntarily reduced its sensitivity, colloquially known as your nose going bad.
But when you’re forced to use the outhouse a second ti, you’ll still feel the strong pungent sll. Perhaps you’ll adapt faster this ti, but you still can’t adapt imdiately and have to go through that intense sensory stimulation again.
"Ah, if I had known I’d enter Ashen World on the 12th, I would have gone straight to sleep after returning ho to recover so Physical Strength.
But luckily, now that I am back in Ashen World, I don’t have to worry about food anymore, and I can eat Crimson Iron Ant at whenever I’m hungry."
Regarding the cans of beans and thick soup that were packed in his Waist Bag, Zhang Yanhang promptly fetched them from his Waist Bag and threw them out the window.
He had kept such food before because he had nothing else to eat, but now that he was no longer short of food, he naturally wouldn’t keep such useless trash occupying the limited space in his Waist Bag.
Since Zhang Yanhang, during his last visit, even preferred to starve for five consecutive days over eating such food, it was even less likely that he would eat them in the future.
Speaking of the Waist Bag, Zhang Yanhang imdiately sat up from the bed and began verifying whether anything was missing from the Waist Bag.
He was mainly concerned about accidentally bringing sothing from Ashen World to the Main World that couldn’t be brought back to Ashen World again, which would be quite embarrassing.
Fortunately, after a thorough check, Zhang Yanhang found that nothing was amiss. Everything, including the previous Crimson Iron Ant at, Crimson Iron, and the Ant Acid Bullets he had manufactured himself, was still perfectly intact inside the Waist Bag.
"Since there are no problems with the Waist Bag, let’s continue with the Raccoon City cleanup plan. I rember I had previously cleaned up to the sewer, and it was already half cleared.
Next, I should start by cleaning the sewer, and once the sewer is cleared, I’ll move on to cleaning the Umbrella Company’s Raccoon City branch."
Zhang Yanhang decided to clean the sewers first, not only because the monsters in them were weaker, but also for another very important reason—he had discovered that the Tracker was staying on the lowest floor of the Umbrella Company’s Raccoon City branch.
Thus, to avoid triggering a boss battle prematurely, Zhang Yanhang chose to first clean the sewer.
"However, before cleaning the sewer, I should first clear the loot pool of the slot machine." Zhang Yanhang glanced at the slot machine and noticed that it had indeed refreshed.
This ti in Ashen World, Zhang Yanhang planned to stay only until 6 a.m. on the 13th, just until the transmission channel automatically closed then leave Ashen World. At the mont, he still had nine and a half hours until his departure from Ashen World, which was more than enough to eliminate the Tracker.
