Chapter 160: It’s not that Alexander wasn’t modest, it’s just that this cigar was too valuable!
Not only Andy, but with Alexander’s shout, the surrounding neighbors also started to show up.
Most of these neighbors are of the Soldier-class, but many are of the General-class, and some even are of the relatively weaker Fierce-class.
The reason for this is simple: the housing prices on Ghost Street are rising too fast.
Unlike other neighborhoods where the apartments have been sold out for countless years, in Fierce Ghost Apartment, most of the houses were rebuilt after the Heavenly Punishment, so they were originally cheap, and you could even apply for a loan.
Therefore, many ghosts who are not afraid of the Heavenly Punishment, such as Su Rong, Skinning Ghost, and Head Holding Ghost, bought houses even though they had to bear high loans.
However, later, Hell’s Warriors appeared.
Now, not to mention Su Rong, even ghost generals can hardly afford the high housing prices of the apartments. The most important thing is that the Ghost Apartment has a special situation. The upper floors are inhabited by the Blood Queen, and the boss behind the scenes is Louis, so no one dares to cause trouble.
Ghosts outside the Ghost Apartment, even if they have the strength of ghost generals, do not want to provoke the lower-level residents of the apartment lightly.
Therefore, the residents of Fierce Ghost Apartment, who have always been used to being domineering, heard someone shouting loudly and came out one after another. Several ghosts were clearly disturbed and looked angry.
But when they saw Alexander’s face, the anger on their faces instantly froze.
A few General ghosts, who are somewhat prideful and unwilling to interact with Alexander, immediately closed their doors and returned inside, acting as if nothing had happened.They are untouchable!
The remaining neighbors who did not go back were all brightened, ready to go up and say hello, to establish rapport.
After all, this is Louis’s brother!
It is said that last time Andy established a relationship with Alexander, so he directly signed a transportation agreement with the Fierce Ghost Association. Fifty buses became the transport vehicles of the Fierce Ghost Association, and made a lot of money!
Since they knew that Alexander still had such a relationship, they should have established rapport at the beginning, rather than pretending to be indifferent. After all, compared with face, tangible benefits are the most important!
Seeing such a good opportunity, the ghosts suddenly looked eager.
"Brother Andy!"
Before these neighbors could say hello to Alexander, the Frozen Ghost rushed over with an excited face, and said with a flattering face, "Brother Andy, look what I found, I was about to send it to you, but I didn’t expect fierce ghost apartment to have a..."
Slap!
Before the word ’bug’ came out, a crisp slap hit the Frozen Ghost’s face.
"Andy, why are you hitting me?"
The Frozen Ghost looked up with a puzzled face, obviously not understanding why he was beaten.
"Hit you? I’m damn going to kill you, why are you so stupid that you dare to offend such a big man!" Andy was very angry, rushed up and started beating him up, even using his ghost energy.
If this were an ordinary soldier ghost, I’m afraid it would have been beaten to death after a few punches.
It was apparent that Andy was deliberately controlling his strength. His blows were heavy, but they weren’t lethal.
Alexander could see it, and so could the other neighbors.
A slightly chubby middle-aged man with a sleazy smile commented, "Andy! Isn’t your underling quite brave? Why do you seem so weak when you move to action? Didn’t you eat? If you’re hungry, just tell me, I’ll make you a burger!"
"No... no need! Thank you, Lista,"
Andy appeared somewhat afraid of the middle-aged man, repeatedly shaking his head and pleadingly looking at Alexander, "Alexander, Karu was my friend when he was alive, and now, bus drivers are hard to find in the Horror World. You see..."
"Don’t worry about it, it’s just a minor issue," Alexander casually waved his hand, showing no concern. "If I really planned to kill him, I wouldn’t call for you, but Thomas, that guy!"
"Thank you, Alexander! Thanks, boss! You fool! Aren’t you going to thank the boss for sparing your life?" Andy hastily expressed his gratitude, not forgetting to kick the Frozen Ghost on the side.
The Frozen Ghost understood clearly when he was being beaten. He had definitely provoked some important figure due to his rashness.
But what he didn’t expect was that this figure was far from ordinary!
Could this Thomas he mentioned be the Ghost King of the Night?
Daring to refer to the Ghost King as "that guy", and with an air of giving orders to a servant?
Must be a misunderstanding, he must have heard it wrong!
Frozen Ghost apologized obediently, but his mind kept doubting uncontrollably.
This was all too incredible.
After expressing his gratitude towards Alexander, Andy dragged the almost unconscious Frozen Ghost towards his room.
"Andy, isn’t he a Chosen One? Why are you so afraid of him?" Despite being severely injured, Frozen Ghost couldn’t help but ask weakly.
"Am I scared? I’m just showing respect, understand?" Andy subconsciously glanced at Alexander and noticing that Alexander, surrounded by ghost neighbors, hadn’t heard their conversation, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and scolded, "Karu, when will you stop being so reckless!
If you hadn’t saved me multiple times when we were alive, I might have killed you myself! Don’t you know that in the Ghost Apartments, everyone is courteous to Alexander, do you think he is an ordinary Chosen One?"
Saying this, Andy took the Frozen Ghost and retreated to his room without looking back, fearing this fool would carelessly utter some stupid words and be killed by the other ghost neighbors in an attempt to please Alexander.
After all, he wasn’t a resident of the Ghost Apartments. If he offended Alexander, there was no need for an excuse, they could just kill him straight away.
Just before closing the door, the Frozen Ghost, named Karu, took a final look at Alexander. As expected, Alexander was being surrounded by a group of generl-class ghosts.
The soldier-clasa could only look enviously from the sidelines, not even having the privilege to greet him.
In the front, several generl-class ghosts offered cigarettes and lit them.
And the ghost named Lista, who was obviously the highest ranking among them, squeezed to the front, a face full of flattery, holding a beautifully packaged box of ghostly Cohiba Behike 52 cigars.
Ghost King level: Cohiba Behike 52
Seeing everyone trying to please him, Alexander wanted to refuse, but upon seeing the attributes of the cigars, he couldn’t help but accept them.
Cohiba Behike 52
Rank: Ghost King level
Description: Made from the finest tobacco leaves in the dark hell, including the unique "Medio Tiempo" leaves, these are the four leaves at the top of the tobacco plant that, due to more sunlight exposure, are more intense than other leaves.
Effect: Smoking the cigar will intoxicate evil ghosts within a few meters radius, the Chosen One absorbs the essence, increasing the ghost energy by 100 points, up to five cigars can be smoked.
Increasing ghost energy by one hundred points!
Being able to smoke five, that means a maximum increase of five hundred ghost energy.
Alexander’s reward for completing an SSS-level instance only increased his ghost energy by two or three hundred points.
Now, just by smoking five Cohiba Behike 52, he could gain five hundred ghost energy!
This level of treasure is just too precious. If taken outside, it could even cause a small-scale war.
It’s not that Alexander wasn’t modest, it’s just that this cigar was too valuable!
