New Clothes

"Sister Agatha!"

Although both were Hell Monk, there was a difference in their status. Upon seeing Agatha's arrival, she stopped talking and quickly returned to the ranch area.

Luo Di looked Agatha up and down and at her mount.

After all, any creature related to pigs is related to food when viewed from a human perspective.

The Black Pig in front of me is comparable in size to an adult rhinoceros. Even though its skin is covered with metal, you can still feel the full Muscle Tissue under its skin. It is a perfect match for Agatha.

Compared to the crow colt, the latter is almost half the size.

Just as Luo Di was observing the pig, Agatha reached out and tossed Luo Di's killer coat over her shoulder.

"Um?"

When Luo Di caught it with both hands, his arms sank slightly.

The coat, which was originally designed to be integrated with the "Camera Pituitary," was already heavier, and now its weight has increased threefold.

The coat doesn't appear to have much additional metal structure; the only difference is that the buttons have been replaced with a special monastery metal, and the left sleeve cuff is adorned with a full circle of metal studs, allowing for faster Torture Device Creation.

"Huh? This is..."

As Luo Di fully unfolded the coat in his hands, the true craftsmanship of the modification was revealed, and the reason for the increased weight was found.

The lining is covered with steel needles of varying lengths.

The shortest is 3cm, and the longest is a whopping 10cm. Once you put these steel needles on, they will pierce your flesh.

Looking at the dense array of steel needles, Luo Di felt a pang of discomfort. "Are all monks' leather robes designed like this? Besides causing pain, what other effect do they have?"

"You'll see once you put them on."

Agatha's pupils dilated slightly, eagerly anticipating Luo Di's first experience of wearing clothes.

"Alright..."

Although Luo Di had adapted to pain under Mr. Hook's tutelage, this was the first time he had tried such clothing. Just imagining being pierced was already very uncomfortable, and as a human being, he would feel a sense of rejection to some extent.

No wonder the monks' leather robes didn't shake at all, no matter how vigorous their movements were; they were fixed to their bodies in this way.

call...

Take a deep breath.

Put on your coat,

The metal needles made by the monastery easily pierced through Luo Di's leather lining, sliding directly into his flesh as if lubricated. It was so smooth that he didn't even feel the pain of being pierced.

Just as Luo Di was feeling puzzled,

As the clothing became completely form-fitting, and all the needles were inserted to a sufficient depth, reaching the key points inside the body...

Buzz!

An unprecedented, excruciating pain swept through my entire body.

Although Luo Di could withstand the pain, blood was seeping from his seven orifices, and he felt that he might lose consciousness and fall into a deep coma at any moment.

But he remained standing, as if his previous pilgrimage had had an effect, and his acceptance of suffering had reached a new level.

Time passed second by second.

Luo Di stood there, his pupils dilated.

As his pupils shrank back to their original size, his body slowly began to move, and a wonderful feeling spread throughout his body.

Luo Di could clearly feel that these acupuncture needles were targeting key acupoints, enhancing the connection between the Metal Spine and the whole body, especially releasing the metal's energy.

Snap!

Luo Di snapped his fingers lightly.

A more perfect animal trap, with more detailed features and double the bite force, was placed on the ground.

At the same time, lines of metal-woven Hell Script appeared on Luo Di's retina, used to introduce this Monk's leather coat that belonged exclusively to Luo Di.

<Needle Coat (abnormal)>

*A Monk's leather coat robe made from a coat infused with otherworldly attributes. During the manufacturing process, the otherworldly attributes appear to be related to the metal, resulting in minimal rejection and a perfect finish.

"Type": Overcoat & trench coat, suitable for cultivators who focus on physical training.

"Painful processing": needles*.

*It can effectively stimulate the acupoints of monks, improving nerve sensing and metal transmission efficiency. Since the owner of the clothing (Luo Di) possesses both the spine and metal, two Hell Object, the needles can adapt to the spinal nerves to the greatest extent, matching the Dual System.

*The otherworldly characteristics inherent in the clothing are amplified, and the field of view provided by photography is further enhanced.

Quality: A+*

*This garment underwent quality testing at the Grand Monastery's tailoring factory and was ultimately rated as A+ quality, a rare and excellent quality.

After Luo Di finished monitoring the clothing information and the metallic text on his retina faded, Agatha asked excitedly:

"How is it? What's the quality of this coat? This is the first time I've seen a tailor factory here making a coat with otherworldly attributes."

"A+"

"My God! Is it that tall? My nun's leather coat is only an A."

This is a special tailoring technique that only we nuns can enjoy. I spent three whole days in the tailor factory to design the combat leather suit perfectly according to my body.

Things from your world are really useful!

I increasingly want to enter your world. I also want to use an iron pillar to smash those Pseudo-Human, and I want to go to the depths of the Corner to take a look.

Speaking of which, could it be that your world's system itself possesses "compatibility"? Whether it's this piece of clothing or the pituitary gland in your brain, it can adapt to things from [True Hell].

Otherwise, how could it have gone so smoothly? Any piece of clothing you bring can be perfectly adapted to our leather craftsmanship."

"Hmm... that's quite possible."

Upon careful consideration,

The most prominent characteristic of the Corner System is fear, without a doubt. But another major characteristic manifested in the Pseudo-Human is disguise, and this "disguise" may indeed correspond to a kind of compatibility and adaptation.

and,

When Luo Di saturated his pituitary gland, the pituitary gland also integrated the whole body, becoming highly integrated with the Hell System, with no rejection occurring at all.

Presumably, the situation for other connectors should be similar.

The compatibility and adaptability of the corners are something we should pay more attention to in the future.

After quickly adjusting to his new clothes, Luo Di looked at Agatha:

What are you doing bringing your mount here?

"Hasn't your Recruitment Spine been returned? The path arranged for you is very special; you will need to primarily travel as a monk from now on."

Considering that you have just arrived in the True Hell and are unfamiliar with many things, the teacher and the Pope have both arranged for me to accompany you.

With me, a nun, here, your identity will be less likely to be exposed.

"Oh, thank you."

Agatha suddenly remembered something, reached into her pocket and checked what was inside. "Oh right, didn't you say before that you wanted to get more Wanted Poster, gain more contributions, and then make contact with the Hell Merchant Group?"

While waiting for the garments to be processed, I specifically went to pick up a Hell Wanted Poster.

Since you can only receive one Wanted Poster per trip, and you need more contributions if you want to exchange items with the merchant guild, Luo Di.

Therefore, I specifically chose a Wanted Poster that was more difficult to obtain and had a higher reward.

The target is more dangerous than the rat we killed before.

Luo Di was pleased that Agatha remembered, but he was also somewhat puzzled. "Hmm? That rat is close to ascending to demonhood... Does that mean we have to fight against something that has already ascended to demonhood?"

"No, not at all! Hell Wanted Poster aren't issued randomly; the recipient and the wanted poster must be within a wide range of ranks."

Luo Di and I are both on the path to becoming demons. I have already constructed the general shape of the gate, while you have only just glimpsed its outline.

The Wanted Poster poster still targets a near-ascension demon, but in terms of danger, aggression, and overall strength, this person is far superior to that rat.

After all, that mouse had very average talent, and it was eliminated by the trickery.

It just so happened that he found a "play" related to the hotel, which specifically lured the weak into the hotel and killed them, using a relatively low-end "corpse piling scheme" to construct the "door".

The nearby Ascended Being targeted by this Wanted Poster is a powerful individual. The portal he constructed is unique, and the area he operates in happens to overlap with our route.

"Close to the Hell's Dark Side."

"Almost."

"Is it also a bad joke?"

"No...like you, Luo Di, the Spine."
