The ninth floor of the Wujian Restaurant, which is also the top floor.
The place is filled with the ruins of collapsed buildings, now covered in lush green moss.
It seems that a prosperous city once stood here.
In the center of this city ruins, there is a black stone round table with a chessboard drawn on it, where two eerie figures are playing chess.
One of them was a scholar holding a folding fan, while the other was a burly man with a full beard and a third eye between his eyebrows, which was quite strange.
They were both focused on playing chess, and neither of them spoke.
A moment later, the three-eyed giant suddenly burst into laughter, "General, you've finally lost to me once, hahaha..."
The scholar shook his head indifferently, "What's so great about beating me? You still can't win Sixiang's heart!"
The three-eyed giant immediately stopped smiling. "Hmph, for thousands of years, I haven't been able to win Si Xiang's heart, and neither have you. We're both equally bad, so let's not laugh at each other."
The scholar laughed and said, "But there's a human boy who stole Sixiang's heart, and Sixiang wants to prove herself to him!"
"What? This is impossible!"
The three-eyed giant slammed his hand on the stone table, shattering it into pieces like tofu.
Its three eyes were filled with anger, especially the vertical eye between its eyebrows, which was so wide that it almost bulged out.
“Three-Eyed Brother, don’t get agitated. Since things have come to this, let’s wish Sixiang well. Having another path is always better than having one less.”
"No way, I'm going to kill him! Tell me who he is!"
The scholar initially refused to speak, and the two ghosts argued about it, almost coming to blows.
Finally, the scholar told the three-eyed man with a helpless expression, "I heard his name is Xia Tianqiong, and he comes every time the restaurant opens."
Then the three-eyed giant stood up angrily, turned around and left, clearly going to find that human.
The scholar shouted from behind, "Three-Eyed Brother, you've only just arrived in the human world. It's not too late to rest before you go!"
"I can't wait any longer."
"Then you absolutely mustn't tell anyone that I told you!"
The three-eyed giant did not reply and vanished instantly.
The scholar watched the direction it had gone, gently swaying his folding fan, a smile gradually spreading across his lips.
"It's been so long, and you're still as stupid as ever!"
...
Xia Tianqiong was eating at a Sichuan restaurant at the time, with Takeout Ghost and Game Ghost at the same table.
Five days have passed since the game monster was captured.
He released the courtesan, the head-and-dog, the hanged ghost, and the snow demon ghost to roam the city, searching for evil or ferocious ghosts. He occasionally returned to the Sky Island Orchard to check on things, but spent most of his time fighting monsters and leveling up in the game's ghost realm.
The desolate and eerie realm became his personal game world.
After several days, I finally reached the level of a super villager, and my physical and other qualities improved again, far surpassing those of ordinary people.
In addition, the five-piece set of artifacts has finally been completed; the other two pieces are a bracelet and a pair of shoes.
Wearing all of them will grant you the set bonus called "Dharma Body".
This is a passive defensive ability. When attacked, a golden phantom will appear on the surface of the body, which can resist a certain degree of physical and magical attacks.
With this suit, coupled with his physical abilities, he can fight against fierce monsters, even evil monsters, without using trickery.
Inside the restaurant, Xia Tianqiong and his two ghosts were eating. When other guests came in, they would politely call him Captain Xia.
He is now quite prestigious in this small town.
I learned from the locals that this place is called Cheng'an City. Before the strange occurrences, it was a city with more than three million people, but now, with many leaving or dying, only five or six hundred thousand remain.
Those who remain here now are either there to hunt the supernatural or are people who have nowhere else to go.
"I'm full, I'm going to play games."
The game ghost put down its bowl and chopsticks, said something, and then directly crawled into the bronze mirror on the table.
Summer Sky discovers that the game ghost also retains the habit of eating human food, so she often calls it out to eat with her.
The delivery ghost frowned, clearly displeased with the way the game ghost spoke to its master.
"Master, should I teach it how to be a trickster? It's so rude."
"Never mind, he's still just a child."
Xia Tianqiong didn't even look up and continued eating.
The delivery guy didn't say anything more.
A moment later, a beautiful woman wearing a miniskirt, large sunglasses, and a sun hat walked into the restaurant, carrying an elderly man with gray hair.
"This wicked creature has a stubborn temper; it would rather die than be bound by a contract."
Upon hearing this, the delivery guy immediately smiled and said, "Miss, leave it to me. I'm good at this."
The delivery monster took out the Heavenly Rope, tied up the white-haired old man, and then took him into the Mirror Space to begin its most skilled business.
The woman sat down opposite Xia Tianqiong and said, "Boss, please bring another set of chopsticks and a bowl."
She is naturally the most beautiful courtesan in red.
Summer Qiong asked it to dress up so that others wouldn't recognize it as Li Gui from the Liu family, and it ended up dressed in this hot and sexy style.
“Young master, there are many wild and fierce ghosts coming from the ghost realm every day, but there are very few evil and vicious ghosts.”
"I know I'll stay in this city for now, and leave when I've gathered enough monstrous creatures."
As the two people ate and chatted, the courtesan suddenly turned her head sharply and looked towards the door with a panicked expression.
Then a burly man with three eyes walked in.
After looking around the restaurant, his gaze finally settled on Xia Tianqiong.
The courtesan in red quickly transmitted her thoughts: "Young master, it carries the aura of the Demon King."
