Chapter 29: It's hard to endure, isn't it? Let me help you.
The guidance provided by Alexander, although not as detailed as the Tube Building, can significantly improve the income from instance.
What could possibly make you like someone more than them helping you make more money?
Furthermore, given Alexander's ability to make connections, he quickly became acquainted with these ghost neighbors!
For example, the Electric Death Ghost likes to eat spicy food, the Drowned Ghost should have liked sunbathing, but this one in the apartment complex oddly prefers drinking hot water.
And then there's the Skin Peeling Ghost who often gets chopped by his wife, the Hanging Death Ghost's tongue was stolen by the kid upstairs yesterday, and unfortunately, this kid's family is led by a Ghost General-level big shot and is not to be messed with, and so on.
Whether it's hobbies, habits, or minor issues, Alexander gets a clear grasp of them in a short time.
Piece by piece of information continuously emerged, and the skill rewards were triggered crazily.
More than twenty people, two hundred ghost coins each, that's another five thousand.
Even more astonishing is the ghost energy reward, a total of two hundred and sixty points of ghost energy, which immediately promoted Alexander to the Evil Spirit level.

Reopening the attribute interface, it was simply explosive!
Ghost coins soared directly to over twelve thousand, breaking through the ten thousand threshold, making Alexander undoubtedly wealthy.
The ghost energy is even more incredible, with over three hundred, even though it's still far from becoming a Ghoul-level chosen.
But don't forget, Alexander has only experienced the assessment instance, he hasn't participated in a single official duplicate!
As for the ghost items, they're even crazier.
One Fierce Ghost-level item, four Ghoul-level items, and dozens of Evil Spirit-level items.
And this doesn't even count things like half a beautiful leg and other plugins, which Alexander has already placed directly into the Tube Building instance.
Even though it's only Evil Spirit-level, with such a quantity, it's estimated that only top chosen forces like the "King's Association" could afford it."
Alexander was originally planning to open the Tube Building instance again to make more money while the opportunity was hot. However, after the sudden windfall, Alexander felt it wasn't necessary.
After all, steady progress was key, and if he opened instances too frequently, it might reveal his strategies to the other chosen ones. Thinking this, Alexander gave up his plan to continue opening duplicates.
He took out the high voltage line full of energy and a pile of miscellaneous ghost items and gave them all to Su Rong along with ten thousand ghost coins:
"Use these things to arrange the Tube Building. Don't rush to open the instance. We'll use hunger marketing and open it again in ten days!"
"Understood!" Su Rong didn't refuse. She took the items and said, "Among these things, incense and paper money have a great effect on us evil spirits. I have reached the peak of evil spirits, and with these things, I can become a ghoul in a few days."
"Good, in five days I will enter the Ferocious Ghost Restaurant instance! It is said to be an open instance with a very high level of danger. No one is sure what level of evil spirit is in the restaurant. I can summon you at any time through the contract. If you can upgrade to the ghoul level, it would be a great help to me!"
Alexander didn't have much confidence in the Ferocious Ghost Restaurant instance, so any increase in strength was welcomed. He gave all the ghost items that he didn't need to Su Rong, even his ghost coins, only leaving two thousand for himself.
His only request was for Su Rong to increase her strength as quickly as possible.
After instructing Su Rong, Alexander resisted looking into her enticing eyes and exited the Ferocious Ghost instance. He had to because tomorrow was Monday.
He still had to go to school, and he had to arrive thirty minutes early.
In fact, as a chosen one, Alexander could directly apply for special recruitment to enter a university with a Horror World major. Moreover, only top universities are qualified to offer such majors.
But Alexander didn't want to reveal his chosen one identity prematurely to avoid being connected to his 3s evaluation.
Alexander was a bit relieved. If he had stayed there, it would probably have been another romantic evening, and he would have been too exhausted to climb the four-story teaching building tomorrow.
Bang! Bang!
Not long after Alexander exited the apartment, there was a knock at the door.
The person knocking was Sophia from the apartment across, coming to invite Alexander to dinner. He didn't want to go initially, but couldn't bear to refuse the girl's hopeful, watery eyes.
The dinner was very generous. Alexander had often eaten at Isabella's house in the past, so he didn't need to be polite and enjoyed the meal.
After dinner, he helped wash the dishes, and was about to go home to sleep when Sophia held onto his arm tightly:
"Brother Alexander, can you please stay? Sophia is very scared!"
Wearing a teddy bear pajama, Sophia clung tightly to Alexander's arm, her beautiful large eyes blinking continuously at him.
"It's late. Be good, I'll come over and accompany you tomorrow!" Alexander quickly replied.
"No!" Sophia kept shaking her head, her face turning increasingly pale.
"What's going on?" Alexander asked Isabella with confusion.
"Sigh... It's all because of that recruitment notice. She was so scared last night that she cried all night without sleeping. Even with me by her side, it was no use. You must stay and accompany her tonight!" Isabella exhaled.
"This... Is that appropriate?" Alexander looked puzzled.
"What's inappropriate about it? You're her brother, and you've risked your life for her. You wouldn't have any ulterior motives! Besides, Sophia is still so young! So it's settled!" Isabella decided without giving it a second thought.
Alexander found it hard to refuse, otherwise, wouldn't it imply he had ulterior motives?
"Great!" Sophia jumped up excitedly.
Returning in his pajamas, Alexander awkwardly laid down on Sophia's bed.
Sophia, on the other hand, didn't think much of it. She excitedly snuggled up to Alexander, resting her head on one of his arms while draping his other arm across her chest, finding a comfortable position she said,
"It's much better with big brother here! Brother, you should accompany Sophia to sleep every night from now on!"
What could Alexander say? He could only curve his body as much as possible, so Sophia wouldn't touch any awkward spots.
Holding a young girl, the fresh and pure scent kept invading his nose, making Alexander somewhat restless, his lower body becoming very hard, and he involuntarily curled up even more.
Creak...
The sound of a door opening rang out, and Alexander quickly closed his eyes to avoid exposing his awkward state.
It must be Isabella checking in, he thought.
However, he soon found the blanket being slowly lifted, followed by a soft body pressing against him.
Seemingly aware of Alexander's predicament, Isabella couldn't help but laugh softly behind him. Then, she wrapped her arms around Alexander's waist.
"Isabella..." Alexander gasped.
"Shh... Don't wake Sophia!" Isabella whispered in his ear, her warm breath continually caressing his earlobe, "It must be very hard to restrain, isn't it? I've been through this, let me help you!"
As the gentle voice echoed, Alexander felt the hand on his waist begin to move.
