Chapter 550: Chapter 550: One Person, One Item
 

“Congratulations on completing this game.”

Before the Ghost Fire appeared, the voice of the Inspector had already echoed through the air.

At the same time, the rain finally stopped.

The ground trembled, and the scenery all around slowly descended. The ancient house sank continuously, just like an ancient tomb that has never been sealed in the deep mountains.

Doors once shut tight were opened again, and the Ghost Fire Inspector drifted hauntingly out of the house. The interior scene had undergone a drastic change.

It was no longer an ordinary hall but a complete tomb!

The Ghost Fire said: “When Liu Yanruo left home, her brother was studying abroad and was not aware of this bitter injustice. In the decades that followed, he enjoyed high government ranks and earthly wealth, but their parents could not find peace and died from depression. They had requested in their dreams that throughout his lifetime, he must find his younger sister, bring her home, and reunite the family.

Players have achieved the mission goal, stopped the female ghost, and can now enter the tomb for reward calculations. Each person is free to choose a burial accessory as a reward.”

Bai Youwei sneered slightly.

Using burial accessories as reward items really was in line with Ghost Fire’s characteristic image.

Upon hearing the slight sneer, the Inspector glanced at Bai Youwei silently.

Well…

Being able to complete the game, she really was skilled. No wonder other Inspectors had such a headache dealing with her… It seems being extra cautious was necessary indeed.

The four followed Ghost Fire into the tomb.

It was again the same meticulously decorated boudoir. What had changed was that the canopy bed was now a coffin. The visual field wasn’t dark with oil lamps lit all around, and everything was clearly visible.

These so-called burial accessories were the items used when alive and buried after dying.

Bai Youwei curiously observed the tomb and discovered many new objects.

Aside from some items for women’s daily life, there were numerous underworld coins, gold and silver ingots, colorful bronze coins, and more…

“How do you define ‘one’ when it comes to a burial accessory?” Bai Youwei asked, “For example, these ingots made of paper are all stacked together. So, does ‘one’ mean one ingot or the whole pile?”

Ghost Fire paused.

Here it comes…

Here it comes…

She begun seeking loopholes!

“‘One’ usually refers to one individual unit, an absolutely single entity,” Ghost Fire answered cautiously. “‘One’ means an indivisible item . Thus, one ingot can only mean one, not a pile.”

Bai Youwei wandered around as if deep in thought, walked to the eight-section chest, and lightly patted, “If I choose this chest? Will everything in the chest belong to me too? Or will it just be an empty chest?”

The Ghost Fire became more cautious.

Indeed, a troublesome player. Even at this moment, she was still seeking ways to take advantage of the rules…

If the things in the chest could be chosen together with the chest itself, wouldn’t that mean they could pile other items in the chest and take everything in one go?

…Well, there’s nothing to worry about, its game rules were the most thorough and secure. As long as it responded carefully, there wouldn’t be any hitches.

The Ghost Fire said: “A chest is composed of wood, nails, and locks. If a player chooses a chest, they will get only the wood, nails, and lock and nothing else.”

After a pause of two seconds, it added, “The eight-section chest in this scene can be chosen, but it’s not a reward item. Relevant information about the reward item will be available after touching it. Please choose carefully. Once a reward item is touched, the system will bind it to the player immediately and take effect. No changes can be made.”

Bai Youwei was surprised, “But without touching, we won’t know the function of the item at all. Isn’t this entirely relying on luck then?”

Ghost Fire: “Luck…is also part of strength. Now, please choose.”
