Chapter 965 509: Acting? Who Can't Do That

Shura began his journey to find the truth, and it's fair to say that his ability to receive written prompts is perfect for a mystery-solving path, but it's also quite useful for combat. During battles, it helps him choose the most suitable attack routes and defensive measures, without worrying about deviating from his growth path.

One could say that this talent is incredibly powerful, possessing strong adaptability in all aspects.

Da Tianwei took Cui Yingying to catch ghosts to see if they could trick some out. After all, it's daytime now, and the ghosts' protection time would disappear by noon.

Therefore, the ghosts had to venture out to extend this time, otherwise, when the time runs out, they'd find themselves helpless and powerless.

Da Tianwei wasn't worried about the ghosts extending the time but was concerned about meeting other people and getting killed over small matters, which would leave them with nothing to eat.

This impacted their own interests, so Da Tianwei was so enthusiastic.

Last night, they had only eaten two ghosts. There were still eight left, which could significantly boost their attributes and provide permanent gains.

Gu Shanhai had nothing to do and was hiding in the lab, conducting experiments for verification.

"Shura's hypothesis actually turned out to be true." Gu Shanhai, with most of his energy and focus not here, was not very sensitive to the outside world.

"But why does it feel a bit strange?"

Gu Shanhai couldn't pinpoint the issue because he could only prove the matter was true, but it didn't have much to do with the All Ghosts Survival Platform.

"Perhaps there's a deeper connection?"

"Or is there something wrong with these residents?"

The Spiritual Sense scanned the entire building and indeed found nothing wrong, except for a layer of protection around the rooms where the ghosts resided.

"Wait, Shura wouldn't be oblivious to what's right under his nose, would he?" Gu Shanhai suddenly realized something. If there's anywhere in the building that's problematic, it's undoubtedly the ten units that have been ghost arrival points all along.

After all, only these ten rooms are related to the All Ghosts Survival Platform, so if there is a problem, it can't escape notice.

Not to mention the protection time, which is such a glitch-like thing that even Gu Shanhai would need to put in some effort to break it. Using brute force is possible, but Gu Shanhai didn't want to risk backlash.

He didn't have much desire for it; instead, he focused on himself. Mainly, because he was currently overwhelmed, his desires had decreased. If he hadn't experienced the previous world, he would have done everything to pull the All Ghosts Survival Platform out as resources instead of letting it linger in front of him.

"But with his written prompts, he probably wouldn't overlook something right under his nose."

"Judging by his talents, it's unlikely that the All Ghosts Survival Platform would let Shura's written prompts fail."

"So, it's more likely that his plan hasn't progressed to this point yet."

If it were someone else, they might indeed be tricked by what's right under their nose, but Shura shouldn't be, given his talent.

"Alright, just let him be."

Gu Shanhai didn't think too much about it. The first level wasn't very difficult, and he wasn't here to risk his life.

With Shura and Da Tianwei around, Gu Shanhai trusted their abilities.

Knock, knock, knock~

There was a knocking sound at the entrance to the basement.

"Why are they not catching ghosts and coming to me instead?" Gu Shanhai muttered to himself and then opened the door.

It was Da Tianwei who came, bringing Cui Yingying with him, jumping right in as Gu Shanhai opened the door.

"What are you here for? Aren't you catching ingredients?" Gu Shanhai asked.

He didn't hide the situation in the basement. It wasn't a big deal, and hiding it might affect the harmony between teammates.

"Don't mention it, they went back into hiding, each one playing hide and seek with me through the live stream prompts."

"These ghosts might be a bit weak, but their abilities are quite bizarre. If I'm not careful, they slip back in."

It was clear that Da Tianwei was not putting in real effort, and it was uncertain what he was thinking.

With his strength, catching some ghosts should be simple.

Well, all three of them were like this, mainly due to their caution.

This challenge was too easy, so easy that it posed no threat, causing them to be wary. If it were truly difficult, they'd actually feel relieved. The simplicity meant there were things that needed their investigation.

"Do you want Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill? I'll sell it to you at cost price," Gu Shanhai said, pulling out a porcelain bottle.

Upon hearing this, Da Tianwei's face darkened; it was as if he was blatantly being called weak.

"No need, I'm fine." Da Tianwei's tone was displeased.

"Cough, give me ten bottles, what's the price?" Cui Yingying chimed in.

"Whatever you think is fair." Gu Shanhai took out another nine bottles from his pocket and handed them directly to Da Tianwei.

Da Tianwei didn't reach out to take them; instead, Cui Yingying smiled and took them, casually placing them into the Netherworld Half-plane.

Seeing this, Da Tianwei could only pull out some resources. The price wasn't really the cost price but according to the market rate.

He also glanced at the attributes of the Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill and knew it was good stuff, so there was no need to be greedy for a small discount.

"By the way, what brings you to me?" Gu Shanhai casually asked.

No one comes without a reason, and it's impossible for Da Tianwei and Cui Yingying to come to his basement just to slack off; they'd go back to their room for that.
