Chapter 223: Chapter 122: Shut It Down, It’s Boring [6k]
The true Ghost Gate is located at the intersection of the Mortal World and the Underworld, at the edge of death, in a place invisible to the Mortal World.
The Ghost Gate that the souls enter via the Yellow Springs Road was actually constructed after the reorganization of the Underworld for easier management.
The Ghost Gate on the Yellow Springs Road doesn’t serve much practical purpose; it simply gives the souls a sense of participation and indicates: Once you walk through, you’re officially dead!
The headquarters of the Ghost Gate’s Security Bureau is also located in the Land of Nothingness, hidden in the “Inner World,” which ordinary ghost souls cannot see.
This is the only entrance linking the Mortal World and the Underworld and is also a vital pathway to other Netherworlds.
Lu Wenwu concealed the aura of the living from his body and, together with more than twenty other civil servants recruited by the Ghost Gate’s Security Bureau, traveled through the Land of Nothingness on a special Paper Boat, heading to headquarters.
Apart from him, all the other ghosts emitted a fierce Evil Qi.
Orders were strictly followed, actions were unified, almost giving the impression of a regimented clone army.
Clearly, these ghosts had a military background as Yin Soldiers.
Now, they had finally made it to the shore.
After passing the civil service exam, if not making it as a special agent within the Ghost Realm Castle, at least one could easily achieve the position of a Ghost General, sparing them from the hardships of being a common soldier.
Lu Wenwu sat quietly at the front of the boat and suddenly saw a gigantic city reaching the sky.
A large plaque hung above the city gate, with seven large golden characters reading “Netherworld Ghost Gate.”
It wasn’t golden paint.
It was entirely composed of condensed Merit, brilliant and eye-catching.
Two towering figures as high as the gate, Ox Head and Horseface, stood guard on either side, exuding an impressive might.
Lu Wenwu opened the Eye of Insight and looked from afar.
[Ox Head/Sun Hongmo (S+ Level)]: 2,000,000/2,000,000
[Current Status]: Yin Cha Ghost Body, Ox Head Dharma Aspect, Earthly Fate, Ghost Qi Condensation…
Wow!
A full twenty million Blood Volume!
What kind of monster is this!
Lu Wenwu was slightly astonished.
Converted, the other’s Physique Attributes in this state are at least twenty thousand?
Impressive, an S+ Level powerhouse is terrifying to this degree.
To avoid detection, Lu Wenwu only glanced for a moment before closing the Eye of Insight, examining this legendary Ghost Gate.
Rumor has it that the space here at the Ghost Gate is very special.
No matter where one comes from, the final destination would always be the exclusive front gate of the Ghost Gate.
But no matter where you go or where you come from, you must perform the actions of entering and exiting the gate.
Otherwise, even if you circle around the Ghost Gate in numerous directions, you will ultimately return here.
The leading Old Ghost waved a long staff in his hand, pointing in a direction: “Hey, when you take exams this year, did everyone answer the multiple-choice questions correctly? That person over there is the main culprit of the Underworld Case 700, Mr. Zhang. Take it as a warning, do not exploit loopholes to farm Merit. If detected, report as soon as possible.”
The ghosts on the boat, along with Lu Wenwu, all turned to look at the Old Ghost referred to as Mr. Zhang.
He seemed to be in a state similar to being imprisoned in amber.
Unable to move, unable to perceive, unable to communicate.
But more terrifying was the faint soul fluctuation still emanating from him.
The unique environment of the Land of Nothingness prevented his soul from dissipating into nothingness, leaving him suspended there like a specimen.
Lu Wenwu suddenly recalled a well-known phrase from his past life.
Cheat codes are easy to use; don’t mess with bugs.
Even if you inevitably come across one, just get a little thrill, don’t push your luck.
The Heavenly Dao’s anti-cheating system… the self-regulating mechanism is indeed not something that can be easily overlooked like ordinary, lousy anti-cheat software.
Standing at the bow of the boat, the Old Ghost executed a dark green spell, forming a unique symbol in the air.
A document bearing King Yama’s great seal radiated a thousand beams of auspicious light, delivering information to the two gigantic gatekeepers.
“Rumble…”
The hundred-meter-tall Ox Head and Horseface simultaneously slammed the ground with their weapons, causing the Ghost Gate’s door to slowly open before the gathered ghosts.
The scene inside the city was slightly different from what Lu Wenwu had imagined.
It was less like a traditional pass and more akin to a city.
Aside from the Yin Soldiers and Ghost Generals standing guard at the entrance, the rest looked very much like an airport or train station waiting hall, albeit open-air.
This design was likely made for the convenience of entering and then leaving, treating it not merely as a pass but as a transportation hub connecting various Netherworlds.
The Paper Boat didn’t stop here and continued flying toward the inner city.
The scenes inside were closer to what Lu Wenwu had anticipated.
It mostly presented a military base mode.
Office buildings, training grounds, martial arts arenas, dormitories…
It gave off a vibe of modern and ancient interweaving, which left Lu Wenwu marveling with astonishment.
The Paper Boat vertically descended to a location marked by a giant “G,” right beside the martial arts arena.
G?
Could it be…
Ghosts?
According to the Underworld’s naming conventions, this is highly probable.
Above the martial arts arena, a Ghost General whose physique equaled Lu Wenwu’s was already waiting there.
Lu Wenwu stealthily glanced at him.
An A+ Level expert, imposing.
“Face me, line up from large to small, from left to right in order!” The Ghost General suddenly roared.
The civil servants with Yin Soldiers’ background moved swiftly, and before Lu Wenwu could see clearly, they had already lined up in a flash.
