Capítulo 990: Chapter 66: Secret News About the Ageless, The Truth Erges
[“Hmm, alright.”]
[You casually respond, deciding to take a walk around the streets. This person has been staying at the hotel for a long ti, indicating that he works nearby, not too far away, giving hope of finding him.]
[As you head out, you glance at the brochure in your hand. It briefly describes the hotel’s high-end facilities, top-notch service, exorbitant prices, and special services, vague yet ordinary.]
[You are about to discard it when you hurriedly notice so inexplicable sentences on the back of the brochure.]
[“Dear custor, to ensure you enjoy a pleasant night, please follow the two basic accommodation notices issued by the town–“]
[“First, after midnight, the hotel stops receiving guests. Guests who have already checked in should not leave their rooms. If necessary, you can use the call machine in your room, and staff will visit to provide service;
[If you haven’t requested service but soone knocks on the door, please do not respond.”]
[“Second, the town conducts night patrols. All patrol officers are young n under 30. During room checks, they will show their work ID. Please feel secure in opening the door and cooperating with them;
[If you find won or elderly wearing patrol uniforms, please do not respond and promptly use the call machine to alert the staff.”]
[“What the heck?” A big question mark pops up in your head, and you almost laugh in anger.]
[“Damn weasel, I pay to stay at a hotel and still get my room checked? Not allowed to make loud noises? What if I order your special service and they scream in bed? Everything’s restricted, why don’t they just open a concentration camp?”]
[You laugh at the town guardian’s brainlessness and the hotel’s owner’s insanity.]
[Moreover, you are convinced there must be sothing fishy here. Not letting guests go out at night is likely because they don’t want to ruin their secretive alchemy with children. Your urge to punish evil intensifies.]
[The entire town is quite harmonious. Whether wealthy or poor, n or won, they are all full of hope for life.]
[You, with Tiao Tiao sister, disguise yourself as a Living Cultivator with “special needs,” attempting to fish for enforcent, asking around the town’s outskirts.]
[Street singers selling songs at the intersection, street girls selling themselves in the alley, slum shopkeepers buying groceries, drugstore vendors playing with dogs… this afternoon, you inquire among many roles that seem to have connections with these culprits.]
[However, disappointing as it is, you haven’t discovered any trace of them.]
[“Strange, is that guy not a local? Shouldn’t be… He obviously approached on his own, trying to sell their drugs, what’s going on here?”]
[You start doubting your judgnt, but don’t give up and continue searching, yet in vain.]
[Ti ticks away, and as the sun is about to set, you have no choice but to return to the hotel, back to your room.]
[Just then, a sinister voice cos from nearby: “Hey, buddy, saw you brought a female Walking Corpse in earlier. You’re a Living Cultivator, right? Want so good stuff…”]
[“Been waiting for you!” Your eyes light up, and before this tall, thin, twisted-faced man finishes speaking, you grab his neck in the last few seconds of the day and ask: “Where do you live during the day? Speak quickly! Tell , or die now quickly—!”]
[The man’s face contorts in pain all the more: “Let go… Bold, you know I’m…”]
[Before he finishes, the sun sets, the current conquest ends, settling accounts…]
Damn!
What the heck, can’t believe I can’t locate this guy, where did he pop up from?
Xu Shu curses in frustration, staring at the trembling Tai Chu Scroll.
Looking at the text, Xu Shu’s angry expression freezes montarily.
[Evaluation: Searching for her amidst thousands, not knowing their whereabouts, today’s endless search for the man-eating Living Cultivator goes unrewarded. Having wasted a day of life, you’ll be called Xu Tiansheng, though your efforts weren’t completely in vain.]
[You received item: Seeking People Notice (Fine)]
[Seeking People Notice (Fine): A quite special notice for seeking individuals. Upon use, it summons a special voodoo doll. Swirl the target’s hair, nails, etc., on it, and the doll will automatically track them, within a certain range bringing them directly back; Note: If the target’s strength is above Second Rank, the effect will significantly weaken.]
[Today’s number of uses: 1/3]
With the hint, in the Tai Chu Scroll’s item bar appears a rather sinister-looking icon of a doll seemingly mocking with a smile.
“So it’s such a notice for seeking individuals… Is it using witchcraft to find them?”
Xu Shu scrutinizes carefully.
Though he used one chance, at least he obtained sothing useful, proving his ti spent striving in the conquest wasn’t wasted.
The Tai Chu Scroll’s evaluation and reward will align with his main actions during the conquest.
If he had spent the whole journey idly or doing other things, the obtained item definitely wouldn’t be this.
Xu Shu has personally contacted the man selling Elevation Pills, knowing that although he participates in the Living Cultivator’s evil acts, he himself does not possess Transcendent cultivation, and the “Seeking People Doll” can work flawlessly.
“Hmm, let’s try again, utterly root them out, aiming to sweep them all in daylight!”
Xu Shu claps his hands in delight, determined in his resolve.
“Uh… hey, brother Xu Shu.” Shui Longyin can’t help but pat Xu Shu on the shoulder, curiously saying, “You’ve been muttering to yourself since earlier, are you performing so kind of performance art?”
