Capítulo 789: Chapter 768: Deathly Pale
There are supposedly four choices, but in reality, just two.
Luo Di needs to choose between a stone of unknown attributes, which might not even be of much use, and a relic related to the dungeon’s Crow.
If no external factors are considered, just a comparison of relic information,
This Crow is undoubtedly the best choice—it can bestow the mist with the “vulnerable” attribute, allow a murderer like Luo Di, who often needs to behead face-to-face, to maintain self-regeneration, and also apply a fear effect.
Moreover,
In this dungeon journey, the most dangerous ancient entity Luo Di encountered was the [Crow]. It was due to the final chase contact and physical beheading that this relic option appeared here.
However…
Luo Di’s gaze is hard to move away from the Moon Stone.
Even though this option has too much unknown and uncertainty, Luo Di must consider three other external factors.
1. The [cloth man] who claims to be the dungeon rchant is also mysterious, making it difficult to judge who is stronger between him and the [Crow] due to lack of data.
2. Luo Di obtained an ancient book related to the Moon God and it has already been proven useful.
3. Luo Di’s own fear system is related to the moon.
Considering comprehensively, even if there is much unknown about the Moon Stone, it might be the most suitable for him, able to elevate the quality of a murderer’s fear.
Without much hesitation, he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and made the choice.
Reaching out towards a box before him.
As Luo Di prepared to open the box… tap! His tongue lightly struck, but this ti it was a warning, not a dangerous signal, rather another kind of warning.
A stench from the old days followed from the root of his tongue.
Luo Di realized sothing, and the palm that was originally going to open the box suddenly reached upwards, gripping Jock’s fatty neck.
“You switched the contents inside?!”
The neck was almost entirely pierced by fingers, but Jock began to laugh heartily, “Aha~ Aha! You actually found out… But I’m really already dead, killed by your own hand! Why not take another look at who switched it?”
Pop!
The balloon exploded.
In a blink, there was no Jock in front of Luo Di, only himself.
And the thing his fingers gripped was his own neck, almost injuring his spine, with blood flowing continuously from the holes.
“What’s happening?”
Luo Di hurriedly stopped the bleeding and quickly stabilized, analyzing the situation just now.
“I killed Jock and used his pituitary to exchange for relics; this series of operations might have made his kind of ‘prank’ style influence to a certain extent, especially at the mont of final relic selection.
Of course,
It might also be because my external body is inserting an arm into the egg, the residue left by Jock impacting ,
As long as I get the relic, this influence should cease to exist.
However, the contents inside the gift box in front have been disrupted… my perception can’t fully penetrate it. The warning just now from the tongue was simply because the tongue itself detested this stench extrely, capturing it in an instant.
I have to find ways to discern the remaining three gift boxes inside.”
Luo Di circled the gift boxes, licking and peeking with no avail, even sowhat regretting he didn’t bring the black eye.
After thinking for a mont, he suddenly thought of sothing.
A silver-gray book appeared in his hand, bought from the cloth man: “Moonlight Monologue”.
And just as Luo Di thought, when the book approached one gift box, a sound ca from inside…
…
Outside the secret room.
The attendant was lying at the door, smoking, unlike his usual lifeless state. Today he seed more spirited than usual, holding an energy rod.
Luo Di’s arrival apparently breathed so life into this “entry” which is usually deserted.
“His experience voucher was well used, not only did he get ancient relics, but he brought back other things; that spoiled black eye alone is priceless.
Although I’m not sure what kind of ancient relic he’ll choose.
Ti is a bit prolonged, is this guy still hesitating?”
Out of curiosity, the attendant cast a spying gaze inward, a pale light projecting through.
Upon feeling this strange light, the attendant’s pupils transford into an iron lock pattern, as if sothing suppressed inside was about to burst forth.
His manager instincts were being activated, the likelihood of a very dangerous mad god escaping pushed him to stop it.
But the next mont, the light vanished, and Luo Di erged.
Hanging on his chest was a white jade token, engraved with a shallow full moon pattern, the pale light earlier refracted from this token.
The attendant looked at the token, quite surprised, “Did you encounter a Moon God follower in the dungeon?”
“Yes, a dungeon rchant who claims to be a [cloth man].”
“Strange, according to the Original Dungeon’s setup, the cloth people exist in hidden areas. Encountering them should be the lowest likelihood; did you find hidden walls with the black eye?”
“No… encountered in the transition layer; that guy sought .”
“Seek you?
It seems the Original Dungeon isn’t as stable as set, the earliest rules confine his movent to hidden walls.
Given that the cloth man sought you by initiative, it’s likely because you’re related to the moon.
Apparently, he found right, your choice indeed concerns relics with the Moon God.
Be careful, be cautious.
Once upon a ti, when the Central Prison system was complete, and the adults hadn’t died, this cunning Moon God was the specially managed mad god, singularly imprisoned.
Even locked deep, sealed layers upon layers.
His moonlight could still penetrate, reach the edge unnoticed ordinary prison. The pseudo-gods, lower god figures inside would feel moonlight, and rarely beco his followers.
This cloth man was amongst them.
I can’t elaborate on specifics; anyway, be careful with this relic, especially minimizing use in corners.
Though your world is “isolated”, discovery might still occur.
If attracting remote moonlight attention, true danger would co prematurely. But I, as a store clerk, don’t have authority to evaluate.
If you can obtain this relic, it signifies ‘the adult’s willingness. Use it as deed fit.”
Luo Di was entirely receiving the clerk’s advice, “Thanks for the reminder, I’ll use it carefully… Also, a small question, compared to the one running the corner comic store, who is more dangerous?”
“Not easily compared, both were the most dangerous death row inmates once.”
“Alright, I understand.”
Luo Di nodded thanks and turned to head for the rest area.
He was no longer in a hurry, pulled a chair to accompany the black eye, patiently watching the Asian horror film, leaving when done.
Yet surprisingly,
Black-eyed Morton sensed sothing, however focused on the film, whispered: “Seems you chose the most dangerous choice… The ancient moon is very perilous.”
“Hmm, I’ll handle it with care.”
“Still, I want to see your extent… So young, daring to kill that crow, such choice isn’t strange.
Hold on, about to finish watching.”
“No rush, take your ti.”
Although Luo Di’s eyes were on the TV screen, his mind stayed on the jade token, his fingers unconsciously rubbing its surface.
