Apocalypse: Starting by Burning 100 Billion Ghost Currencies

Three years ago, an enigmatic calamity descended, causing the collapse of the monetary system and the rampant suppression of this world by rules with extremely low survivability.

Su Luo, in a...

Chapter 200 The Strange Attitude of the Su Family

A few days later.

As agreed, late at night, the Su family's ghosts, accompanied by a fleet of luxurious ghost cars, parked in front of the Golden Cave.

Just like in the human world, the monsters also have special means of transportation. Living in the Abyss and familiar with human lifestyles, the monsters have naturally created and produced some uniquely designed vehicles.

Looking at the skull hearses in front of me, which resembled the skeletons in a pre-apocalyptic online game, and decorated with blue ghost fire that shone like stars, I was struck by their extravagant style!

In addition, there were some strangely shaped skeleton carvings placed at the front, back, left, and right of the hearse, with two pairs of exaggerated skull wings extending from the center. For these eerie creatures, this was definitely a high-end luxury vehicle, no less than a Ferrari or Lamborghini in the human world.

But for Su Luo, it boils down to two words.

Strange.

I don't know what these monsters think looks good. Maybe they just install whatever they can afford, and do whatever is most expensive.

"Dr. Su, please get in the car!"

The Su family's coachman bowed respectfully and politely invited Su Luo to get into the carriage. Similarly, he did not object to Yang Zijing's arrival, as if he had tacitly accepted Yang Zijing's presence.

Seeing this, Su Luo raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself that the Su family was quite well-organized, which was better than those strange creatures in Red Leaf City who looked down on Yang Zijin. At least, he could sense that they had a different opinion of Yang Zijin.

If I had to put it in a nutshell, it would be more like the attitude towards the special favor shown to the upper echelons of the Su family.

There was a hint of envy beneath the distant politeness.

As the Bone Spirit Chariot slowly moved forward, the surrounding monsters stared wide-eyed, either with envy or surprise, at this enormous vehicle as it toured the main city of Bailing.

Fortunately, the car had curtains that could be closed independently; otherwise, Su Luo would have felt like a monkey in a zoo, and that familiar feeling from the zoo instance would have returned.

"This...this is the Su family's hearse? It's so impressive, did the Su family send people to spend money at the Golden Cave?"

"What do you mean by 'the Su family's people are spending money'? Didn't you see that young man who just came out of the Golden Cave? Isn't that Doctor Su? The Su family has come to pick up Doctor Su!"

"What's so surprising about that? The Su family is also a cult, and cults can get sick too. If they get sick, they seek out a divine doctor for treatment. What's wrong with that?"

"Um... this does seem to be normal... but that's the Su family, one of the four great families of law enforcement officers. With such a profound foundation, it's impossible that they don't even have a single doctor."

"So... it's just a simple invitation for Doctor Su to visit the Su family?"

"Very likely. Didn't you see they even dispatched a hearse? This is a rare luxury vehicle in the [Abyss], one of which is probably worth one-fifth of the total price of the Gold Cave!"

"Tsk tsk, as expected of an enforcement officer family, and even more so of an enforcement officer family in the main city of Bailing. They are so cunning, they are infuriating! There is no comparison at all!"

For reasons unknown, the hearse from the Su family did not take a shortcut, but deliberately took a long detour, even intentionally circling the main streets of Bailing City in all directions, as if afraid that the strange creatures would not know that they had invited Doctor Su and were taking him to the Su family mansion!

Su Luo: ...

What on earth are these weirdos up to?

Although Su Luo hadn't spent much time in Bailing City and hadn't fully explored it, he could still sense the Su family's intentions.

If the intention was to harm her, the less the culprits knew about her visiting the Su family, the better. It wasn't an impromptu performance. If they wanted to kill her, it would be better to dispose of her quietly.

But now the Su family is doing the opposite, leaving Su Luo somewhat bewildered.

Three hours later, they finally drove into the Su family mansion and stopped in front of an exquisitely carved bone door with two pairs of skull wings. In the very center, a huge single eye, about the size of a tire, was engraved with the character 'Su'.

As the hearse drove in, the gates slowly opened, and a dark red light gradually appeared...

"Welcome, welcome! A warm welcome! Welcome, welcome! A warm welcome!"

Red banners hung behind the gate, stretching across the entire Strange Garden, until they slowly stopped in front of a huge skull castle made of various skeletons.

"Dr. Su, please get out of the car."

Upon hearing this, Su Luo remained silent for a few seconds before getting out of the car. When she looked up, she saw several strange old men who looked somewhat similar standing in front of the skeleton castle, smiling at her.

Su Luo: ...

These weirdos, are they crazy?!

Can't you find a single normal ghost in the entire Su family?

Why do they all look like... idiots? Are they really going to need her to treat their illness? Is it the same problem as the younger brother of the princess of Red Leaf City?

Filled with questions, Su Luo followed behind several similar-looking old men who kept chuckling to themselves whenever they saw her, touring the Su family mansion, one of the four great families of the Abyss Enforcers.

It must be said that compared to the Su family, the Red Silk Palace in Yecheng, the Princess's Mansion in Hongye, the Hong family in Bailing City, and the Golden Cave all paled in comparison.

Unlike the pure nouveau riche atmosphere of the Golden Cave, this Su family has a special kind of abstract artistic beauty. In human society, it would probably be a representative of the abstract art school, a threshold for certain elegant people.

So, what's the deal with the Su family taking her on a tour and even telling her which way the door to their secret passage faces? Is this really a prelude to murder her to silence her, so they're not afraid to tell her?

Not only Su Luo, but even Yang Zijin, who came along, was too frightened to utter a sound.

This is... a bit too enthusiastic.

"Gentlemen... Senior Su family members, now that we've seen the house and toured the residence, shouldn't we be discussing some serious matters?" Just as the leading old man was about to push open the door to the next secret room, Su Luo suddenly called out to him.

Upon hearing this, the several old men who looked very similar exchanged glances, rubbed their hands together, and looked up at Su Luo with silly smiles. "Hehe, Doctor Su, we heard that you stayed in Red Leaf City for a while before."

They've arrived.

Su Luo raised an eyebrow, realizing that these strange people probably knew what they had done in Yecheng and were just pretending.

"Yes, so what?"

Since he had already made a guess, Su Luo didn't deny it, since denial would be futile. He might as well listen to what these strange people were planning to do.

Seeing Su Luo admit it so readily, the old men exchanged glances, seemingly encouraging him, and continued to ask, "We've also heard that within the jurisdiction of Red Leaf City, there's a small outlying town called Ye City. Shortly before Ye City was destroyed, an enforcement officer claiming to be surnamed Su appeared in that city..."

As the old men talked, they secretly observed Su Luo's expression, especially when Yecheng was mentioned. Not surprisingly, they saw a resolute and sharp...killing intent flash in Su Luo's eyes!
