Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game Chapter 72 - 72 75 Tombstone1

Chapter 72: Chapter 75: Tombstone_1 Chapter 72: Chapter 75: Tombstone_1 ‘Use of the “Naless Weak Spirit” can grant you 300 spirit points, as per tradition, it was collected properly.

He checked out the next item.

A First-Seer Bookmark?

He felt like he’d seen this thing in the Apostles’ forum. Rumor had it that only the extrely lucky could drop this item while grinding for mobs.

“Hmm, it must be the effect of the Lucky Coins.”

[First-Seer Bookmark: When used, can invade an apostle who is still in the initial chapter. After defeating this apostle, you will receive unexpected benefits.]

“…Isn’t this a tool specifically made for tornting newbies?”

Probably in the whole ga, there’s none other like him; an incredibly powerful apostle still in the initial chapter.

“If only I could trade this First-Seer Bookmark for two invader bookmarks.”

Lin Xun was still thinking about the exclusive items sealed in his inventory and wondered what the effects of these items would be once the seal was lifted.

He used the First-Seer Bookmark directly and randomly selected a lucky apostle to invade.

An unkind thought crossed Lin Xun’s mind and he didn’t use his mage’s laser cannon, instead engaging directly in hand-to-hand combat.

As a result, he killed the trembling apostle with a single blow, successfully harvesting a 100 spirit points.

After defeating the lucky one, he only felt tasteless.

“It seems that bullying newbies is not for high-level players like .”

Continuing to check his loot, there was one item left.

[Flesh Core (Item): A strange gem made of nurous body parts and flesh that emits an aroma of flesh. After use, you can control so ownerless flesh for a short ti.]

Control ownerless flesh?

Is this so necromancer trick?

A lot of tricky moves ca to Lin Xun’s mind.

For those BOSS shells that can’t be possessed due to poor compatibility, does it an that he can guide the dead BOSS to rise and fight for him with this item?

“I wonder how long the brief period ntioned in the item description actually lasts.”

If the ti to control the flesh is ample, this item is undoubtedly an artifact.

After checking his loot, Lin Xun issued a follow command.

He returned to the fork in the road at the market and headed for the middle path.

[You head towards the middle fork in the market.]

[As you progress, you find a shop that sells funeral items at the end of the fork in the market. ]

[The shop is already deserted, leaving only withered rciful Lotus Flowers and a few scattered whitewash.]

[Do you wish to enter the shop and explore?]

Why not, it’s like freebies! Searching through the trash can be quite interesting.

[Greedy apostle, you dig three feet into the ground in the shop.]

[You got rciful Lotus Flower (waste) *5]

[You got Ritual Whitewash (waste) *4]

Lin Xun frowned; his sixth sense as an experienced gar was triggered.

He opened the inventory and checked these two junk items.

[rciful Lotus Flower (waste): A white perennial stout herb. As per the church’s customs, people place them in front of tombstones in mory of the deceased.]

[Ritual Whitewash (waste): It’s a short round white candle made of paraffin, beeswax, and spices. Following the church’s customs, people hover in front of tombstones in mory of the deceased.]

Lin Xun squinted his eyes; he instantly sensed sothing.

According to the item description, these two pieces of junk are likely to be used in the cetery.

After leaving the shop, the text did not show any new roads.

Fearing he had missed anything, Lin Xun walked through the entire marketplace again. After confirming that he didn’t miss any items or events, he left the market.

With this, the entire market had been thoroughly explored.

Lin Xun imdiately rode the lion towards the cetery outside Saint Lance.

[You ride the lion, heading for the distant cetery…]

[The desolate and gloomy cetery is surrounded by a sturdy tal rail fence. Gravels and weeds spread through. Broken gravestones stand here and there.]

[As you approach, you find countless black ghosts hovering over the cetery. Their ghastly screams and howls penetrate your mind.]

[The ‘Aura Amulet’ you carry flickers with faint light, churning what would be mind-splitting howls into childish play noises.]

[You just find them annoying, but not harmful.]

[Do you want to attack the ‘Wandering Ghosts’ or enter the cetery?]

Lin Xun checked the item description of the Aura Amulet.

[Aura Amulet (Item): An amulet made of an unknown tal, it is in rectangular shape and mysterious symbols and lines are carved on it. With this amulet, lower-level ghosts will avoid you and you won’t be attacked by them.]

With the ‘Aura Amulet’, attacking the ghosts won’t lead to a counterattack.

So, Lin Xun didn’t hesitate to click on the attack option imdiately.

He hasn’t sought his revenge on the ghosts who killed him last ti.

[Brave Apostle, you raise the ‘Thunder Dragon Staff Spear’, silently chanting a spell…]

[A flash of red light…]

[The ‘Profane Sunlight’ only lted a small part of the ‘Wandering Ghosts’.]

[Your attack alard them and, accompanied by the loud howling, many more ghosts flooded towards you like a tide…]

[They are all absorbed in the light emitted by the ‘Aura Amulet’, not daring to approach you, and once again recede to the sky above the cetery like a tide.]

Lin Xun faintly smiled, opened the panel, and continuously clicked on the skills.

The ghosts ca and left, left and ca, without any wisdom or instinct.

It took him seven or eight ‘Profane Sunlight’ to clean all the ghosts.

Just like the last ti, he didn’t receive any experience or items after defeating the ghosts.

[The cetery’s tal rail fence gate is wide open. You ride the lion into it…]

[In the barren cetery, there are gravels and weeds everywhere, and broken tombstones standing here and there.]

[Glancing around, at the back door of the cetery, a winding road extends to the end of your sight. Beside the road, there seems to be a dilapidated shack.]

[Do you want to search in the cetery or explore the shack outside the cetery?]

“No monsters? I thought so small monsters would jump out as soon as I enter.”

Seeing nothing around, Lin Xun decided to explore the cetery first.

[The graves in the cetery seem to have not been worshiped for a long ti. Observing closely, there are neither the offering flowers nor the candles in front of the tombstones.]

[You check the broken gray tombstones from near to far…]

[You step on a small bug in front of the first tombstone.]

[You dig a chunk of mud off the second tombstone.]

[You scrape a piece of gold lacquer off the third tombstone.]

…

Lin Xun watched the ga text with a straight face, as the Yellow Bishop scratched here and there, inspecting the tombstones one by one.

Despite the extensive searching, nothing valuable was discovered.

Feeling bored by the wait, he lit a cigarette and opened his typing software.

His phone was propped up next to the computer so he could type while glancing at the ga text from ti to ti.

When Lin Xun finished a chapter of about two thousand words, the Yellow Bishop finally finished searching.

He scrolled through the ga text to check if there was anything gained.

“Hm?”

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows, noticing a special event.
