Chapter 59: Soul Whip
"Sir, I’m sorry..." Jessica was on the verge of tears, her face filled with anxiety:
"We’ve never done that before!"
"Isn’t that because I haven’t been here before? Just tell me whether it can be done or not!" The burly man got anxious, he was about to lose his temper, but thankfully he reacted quickly and stopped himself.
But seeing that Jessica couldn’t make the decision, he could only helplessly wave his hand:
"Go, go! Bring me another serving, and tell the chef to add more ’urine’! I’ll pay extra!"
A customer who just walked in, first was startled by the Ghost King, then heard the burly man’s words.
Wow! Add more ’urine’?
What kind of restaurant is this?
As he was doubting, he heard Edward approving, "Not bad, you do know how to eat!"
Dumbfounded!
Could this be some kind of code?
The new customer was a bit nervous, but seeing the waiter coming over, he didn’t feel right just leaving, so he tentatively asked:"Should I... also get a serving?"
Moments later:
"Five hundred ghost coins, this is a rip-off! Two balls for five hundred, you must be out of your minds!"
Five minutes later!
"This ’urine’... can I order it separately? No? Then give me two servings to go, and add more ’urine’!"
Two hours later.
There was a long line of dozens of meters in front of the restaurant.
Even through several shops, you could hear the impatient customers shouting:
"One serving to go, add more ’urine’!"
"Five servings, plenty of ’urine’, money is not an issue!"
...
The horror world is really vast, and the Ghost Street alone is comparable to a large city.
Many of the ghosts here have never left this street.
If the electric ghost was here, he would definitely explain to them what Urinating Beef Balls are, so there wouldn’t be this ridiculous scene of hundreds of people outside the restaurant shouting for more ’urine’.
However, in this hot situation, the income is growing at a rapid pace!
Just as it got dark, Alexander received a prompt from the Horror World.
"Congratulations on successfully completing the hidden task, successfully taking up the role of manager of the Ghost Restaurant, receiving the approval of Ghost Lord Edward, exceeding the hidden task requirements, reward: 40% restaurant profit, Ghost Technique: Hypnotic Demon Hand."
"Congratulations on reaching the highest position in the instance, the Ghost Restaurant instance ends early, due to your special status, you may choose to continue to stay!"
"Instance ending, starting settlement!"
"Completed 2 side tasks, five-star rating! Instance rating upgraded to S."
"Killed 2 evil spirits, 1 fierce ghost, instance rating upgraded to SS."
"In this instance, promoted to manager, instance rating upgraded to SSS."
"In this instance, completed two hidden tasks, instance rating upgraded to EX."
"Congratulations to the chosen Alexander, who has successfully made the first step in the Horror World with an EX rating, receiving the following rewards!"
"Ghost Energy +150, Ghost Coins +1500, Paper Money +150, Incense Candles +5, Ghost Technique: Soul Whip!"
EX! A rating that had never been given out before!
No doubt another public announcement has been made to all the Chosen Ones in the Horror World. I guess the outside world is exploding with chatter now.
However, Alexander found himself quite amused, because he didn’t really care for the reward! It couldn’t be helped!
Throughout his journey, Alexander never relied on any task rewards. He depended on the help of his friends!
The studious ghost who always strived to learn, the loyal baseball ghost, the cool Su Rong, the head-giving ghost, and even the altruistic Good Ghost Charles!
With the help of these extraordinary talents, Alexander had become quite successful in the Horror World. Even more impressively, Edward’s favorability towards him had now reached 20 points.
Though it’s still early to get any reward, he has become the manager of the restaurant and is entitled to 40% of the profit. Not to mention, when the dividends are distributed in a month, the money earned from these two days of Urinating Beef Balls alone would be over a hundred thousand.
Did you really think people shouting "Add more ’urine’" all over the street was a joke? That’s all money! At least, this income could pay off his mortgage.
As a restaurant executive earning over a hundred thousand a month, those rewards of a few thousand ghost coins seemed negligible. The only thing that made Alexander happy was the final ghost technique!
"Soul Whip", just from its name, sounded different from other skills. It’s definitely a legitimate attack skill!
Feeling somewhat overwhelmed, Alexander immediately started checking out the properties of the Soul Whip.
Ghost Technique·Soul Whip
Level: Evil Spirit
Introduction: A basic technique using ghost energy. Clear obstacles under the bed, tune emotions on the bed. Essential skill for killing ghosts, starting fires, flirting, and making love.
Effect: Use ghost energy to form a whip to lash at the target. The power varies depending on the amount of ghost energy input. A minimum of 100 ghost energy points are required to cause damage. Below one hundred, it has the ’training’ effect, please explore it yourself!
Note: Warning, it is said that on the 16th and 17th floors of the Ghost Apartment, there are a few powerful female ghosts with special hobbies who are looking for someone who can use this technique. If you don’t want to try hard, go find the ghost aunties!
Oh my God!
In Alexander’s mind, the image of the Blood Queen immediately appeared. Her body was covered in cracks like spider webs, scales of flesh were falling off with a splattering sound along with the blood.
Her still alluring face stared at Alexander as she gestured with her finger bones:"Young man, with this whip, you don’t need to strive anymore. Let auntie take care of you!"
Oh, heavens! That’s too horrifying! I need to divert my attention immediately!
With a severe shake of his head, Alexander hastily shifted his gaze to the reward skill from the hidden mission.
Ghost Technique·Hypnotic Demon Hand
Introduction: This is a skill from an unknown origin and it’s unclear why it exists here. As if shrouded in a mysterious veil, it’s irresistible not to uncover it, but it’s also scary to think about what may be hidden beneath. It’s best...best not to use it casually, otherwise... otherwise it would only lead to...corruption!
Effect: Your hand will possess terrible magic power. The parts of the target you touch will lose sensation and control. As the target’s strength increases, the hypnotic effect will decrease.
This skill... it doesn’t seem to be as perfect as I imagined!
Sighing, having it is better than not.
Jessica and other Chosen Ones, upon receiving the horror prompt, immediately came to thank Alexander with gratitude and exited the instance.
After saying goodbye to Edward and instructing the ghost chef who had completely given up on revenge to follow his arrangements, Alexander also prepared to return.
This experience was truly unforgettable.
