Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

Liu Zheng said reluctantly.

"They said you're very useful."

The gravedigger's gun moved over his body, each stop aimed at a mark.

"I knew it."

He sighed.

Sure enough, becoming a must-visit spot in the metropolis comes at a price.

Just like the sewer said, Liu Zheng is a virtual dog-owning device for big-time metropolitan tycoons.

It's not only convenient, but also easy to use.

"The dead are more generous than the living."

The gravedigger offered words of comfort.

"I hope so. When shall I come?"

he asked.

"The bullet will find you."

The gravedigger seems to have a habit of repeating himself.

"But you know, I'm a delivery driver for Bloody Restaurant, and my schedule isn't flexible."

Liu Zheng explained his difficulties.

"I'll take care of it."

".OK."

Since the tomb keeper said so, there was nothing he could do.

Given the tomb keeper's abilities, he could probably keep it open for a week without any problem.

"Prepare more meat."

The gravedigger reminded him.

"How much do you need?"

Liu Zheng frowned and asked.

He doesn't like using "meat," but he has no choice if it's for his own safety.

"Prepare more meat."

The gravedigger repeated.

"understood."

This means the more the better.

"By the way, sir, I have another favor to ask."

Looking at the surrounding greenery, Liu Zheng had a flash of inspiration.

"You said."

The gravedigger was very patient.

“I have a plane tree friend that might be evolving recently. Could I transplant it to the cemetery and then ask you to take care of it?”

he asked.

"can."

The tomb keeper readily agreed.

"That's great."

Liu Zheng said with delight.

This solves a major problem: no matter how much white-feathered chickens can be sourced, it's impossible to get them into the cemetery.

"However, the trees here can only evolve into one thing."

The gravedigger continued.

"what?"

Chapter 429 Metropolitan Version of A Chinese Ghost Story

"Grandma Tree Demon".

"That's what the gravedigger said."

"what?"

Liu Zheng looked like he'd seen a ghost.

"The Tree Demon Granny is a hermaphroditic monster that feeds on the yang energy of males."

"You don't need to explain, I know what that is."

He boldly interrupted the tomb keeper's introduction.

"Ah."

The tomb keeper wasn't angry.

If the plane tree becomes the Tree Demon Granny, then Natasha is Nie Xiaoqian, and in her next life she becomes Ning Caichen.

What is that legendary food delivery driver compared to Yan Chixia or the Black Mountain Demon?

"Alright, it seems we have to abandon this plan then."

Liu Zheng said regretfully.

Given the arrogant nature of the London plane tree, it certainly wouldn't want to become a demon or monster like the Tree Demon Granny.

To be fair, the sight of its branches covered in skeletons does resemble that of the Tree Demon Granny quite a bit.

Even if it doesn't ultimately choose to evolve into a phoenix, it can choose to evolve into a tree spirit.

Judging from the appearance of the wood spirit, the tree spirit is at least more dignified than the tree demon.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing."

Liu Zheng said somewhat embarrassedly.

"You're being a bit annoying."

"That's what the gravedigger said calmly."

"The last one, I guarantee it will be the last one."

He said quickly.

"If this isn't the last one, today will be your last day."

"The gravedigger said calmly."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Liu Zheng wiped away non-existent cold sweat.

The communication between the two parties went too smoothly, and the tomb keeper's behavior was too abstract and Zen-like, making him almost forget that the other party was a big shot on the same level as Si Xue and Kong Que.

In some ways, the gravedigger is even more terrifying than other big shots.

“I have a friend’s daughter who had some problems when she was being turned into a mummy and turned into an idiot.”

"I heard that there is a kind of plant in the cemetery that looks like a brain and can increase the wisdom of the deceased, so he asked me to help him get some."

Liu Zheng explained the whole story.

"One hundred thousand."

The gravedigger said after listening.

"Ok."

He deftly took out the money and placed it on the coffin lid.

The gravedigger whistled, and soon a humanoid creature came running from a distance.

It has skin as elastic as rubber, feet like hooves, a face like a dog, and long, sharp claws like a feline.

Its body was also covered with a layer of fungus, mainly yellowish-brown and green, just like a patient with a severe case of tinea.

The humanoid creature approached Liu Zheng, its small, yellowish-green eyes gleaming with greed, and foul-smelling saliva dripping from its mouth.

"If you look at me like that again, I'll chop you up and throw you down the drain to feed the fish."

Liu Zheng said coldly.

After experiencing so many battles, he developed a kind of intuitive sense of the enemy's strength.

“malahe hadu wlaopq”

The humanoid creature spoke a string of obscure words to him.

"Grandpa doesn't understand your nonsense, speak to me in Common Language."

Liu Zheng said bluntly.

The humanoid creature's greed turned into contempt, and it turned its head away, no longer looking at him.

"Hey, I have a short temper."

That's why he couldn't figure out the relationship between the creature in front of him and the tomb keeper; otherwise, he would have pulled out its vocal cords to see if it could speak human language.

"This is the language of the ghouls; it says you look delicious."

The tomb keeper translated for him.

“I think it has a lot of collagen. May I kill it now, Your Excellency the Gravedigger?”

Liu Zheng drew his butcher's knife and said.

"Not now. But if you join the cemetery's register, I can arrange a duel between you."

"That's what the gravedigger said."

"Tch, then let it live for now."

He put away his butcher's knife.

If you register someone in the cemetery, doesn't that mean you become a dead person?

Give him the things.

The gravedigger didn't dwell on the topic, but instead spoke to the ghoul.

"As you wish, protector of the noble dead."

The ghoul responded respectfully, then clenched its claws into fists and pounded its swollen belly.

Despite the constant beating, its abdomen did not shrink; instead, it grew larger and larger.

The ghoul finally stopped pounding its belly when it looked like it was carrying eight babies, and then opened its blood-red mouth and began to dry heave.

One by one, fleshy roots like nerves emerged from the mouth, followed by stems like blood vessels, and finally flower buds like the human brain.

Once the strange plant had completely left its body, the ghoul's abdomen shrank.

It bowed to the tomb keeper, gave Liu Zheng a provocative look, and then turned and left.

"Just wait, I'll make you dog meat hot pot sooner or later."

He raised three tentacles and gave the middle finger.

"give it to me."

The tomb keeper ignored their conflict.

"Oh well."

Liu Zheng rolled up the flesh and blood plant, and the item description immediately popped up.
