Chapter 24: Massive mortgage, running instances at a loss?

Chosen One: Alexander

ID: xjbxd44011

Strength: 20

Speed: 22

Stamina: 19

Ghost Energy: 70

Talent: Unhindered Charm in Social Communication (aka: Social Prodigy)

Real Estate Owned: Haunted Apartment 108 (30-year mortgage, 17 years and 6 months remaining)

Ghost Coins: 0

Ghost Items: None

Skills: None

At first glance, there doesn't seem to be much change in the attributes.

A Partner and Real Estate section were added.

The remaining mortgage alone is over 600,000!

Well, this house, one room, one hall, one bathroom, and no more than fifty square meters in size, has a mortgage close to a million!

Real estate in the world of horror is even more terrifying than in the real world!

Other than becoming a homeowner with a mortgage, only his three-dimensional attributes have slightly increased.

This is as expected. Ghost Energy itself has the ability to strengthen physical attributes. As he has Ghost Energy, his physical strength will continue to increase.

Those powerful veterans are even comparable to superheroes from movies in his previous life.

What caught Alexander's attention was a shitty yellow switch button added to the attribute interface. As he moved his thoughts, the interface instantly changed. This material is rooted in n0velbin★

"For those Ghost Masters without money, there is only one way... to sell flesh!"

"Sell flesh? It can't be..." Alexander's heart skipped a beat, remembering the black plastic bags outside.

Su Rong nodded, "Human flesh is worth some money, at least it can cover the cost!"

Seeing Alexander's face turn pale, Su Rong quickly explained, "Don't worry, I have never sold or eaten any. That's also why I'm losing money."

Alexander breathed a sigh of relief. Although it's a dog-eat-dog world, Alexander isn't exactly a saint.

After all, in such a world, if killing could improve one's strength, he wouldn't hesitate to orchestrate a massacre!

But eating human flesh, even selling the flesh of his own kind as a commodity, made him feel disgusted.

However, Alexander soon asked in confusion, "What about fear? Isn't the emotion of fear supposed to condense into Ghost Coins?"

"They are not afraid at all! And I can't afford ghost servants!" Su Rong moaned, "They only fear at the moment of death. After an instance, only about 30 to 50 Ghost Coins can be condensed. It's so not worth it!"

"Why do you need ghost servants to scare people?" Alexander was baffled.

"How do you scare people without ghosts?" Su Rong was equally confused.

"How did you scare people before?" Alexander asked.

"You've seen it! Just like in Blood Moon High School! Or use ghost energy to make myself look very fierce!" Su Rong stretched out her hands to mimic claws, sticking her tongue out at Alexander.

I'm so scared! So cute yet so fierce!

Alexander found this amusing, almost couldn't resist kissing her.

Of course, he knew that Su Rong didn't want to look ugly in front of him, in the instance she would definitely have a terrifying face.

But you are a ghost!

Shouldn't ghosts rely on the eerie atmosphere, the horrifying environment, the shrill howls, and the uncanny music to scare people?

With this in mind, Alexander suddenly understood why Su Rong was losing money, and declared with a wave of his hand,

"Wait for me, I will start an instance, you do as I say! You will definitely make a profit!"

"Do you really know how to do it? I'm a ghost, can you scare people better than me?" Su Rong was somewhat skeptical.

"Can I do it? Young lady, dare to doubt your man?" Alexander became indignant,

"Let me show you what professional means! Where did you buy your plugins, I need some props."

Despite being a bit skeptical, Su Rong still taught Alexander how to use the Ghost Pearl to check the attributes of the plugins and how to open the specialized store for instances.

There were many things in the store. Alexander even saw a Ghost Soldier Transition Summoning Tool with a fear bonus of +999, costing a whopping 500,000 Ghost Coins.

After some searching, Alexander quickly found what he needed.

Ubiquitous Player

Rank: Spectral

Attributes: Instance plugin, can play various sounds according to the Ghost Master's intent, fear value +10

Price: 200

"This is too expensive, 10 points of fear isn't really worth it, it's not very useful!"

Seeing the funds decrease to 300, just enough to start an instance, Su Rong's worried expression deepened.

"Inconsequential? Heh, soon you'll understand the charm of music!"

A sly smile appeared on Alexander's face as he chose to activate an instance.

"Ghost Master activated an instance, randomly selected quota -7, teleporting Chosen Ones, instance startup!"
