Ji Yan took a step back. He had previously learned about this Free NPC's settings and rules.
When someone "placed an order," it immediately "accepted the order" and went to "pick up the meal."
As long as the Dungeon allowed it, this [Delivery Ghost] could deliver anything to you!
But there was one ironclad rule: if the target was a ghost, human, or Player, it would not kill them—it would only deliver them to you.
Whatever state they were originally in, that was the state they would be delivered in—
Killing them would count as commissioning a murder. That was an assassin's job, and this ghost would not be called a [Delivery Ghost].
But this Free NPC was a little too free. It could even interfere with an ongoing side quest!
Getting forcibly kidnapped by a ghost halfway through a stage—was that really a reasonable setting?
Ji Yan vaguely had an answer in mind, but he still asked, "Who placed the order?"
"Anonymous customer, phone number ending in 3369."
"Then where's the delivery destination?"
The [Delivery Ghost] stepped forward, ghostly energy spilling out. "That is the customer's private information. You'll know when we arrive."
Ji Yan took another step back and tugged at the corner of his mouth. "I already know who it is..."
Originally, he had thought that since a Free NPC could freely enter and leave side quests, being forcibly taken away by the [Delivery Ghost] might let him escape this collapsing side quest. It might even have been a good thing.
But now, it seemed he absolutely could not be taken away!
The [Delivery Ghost] would not kill him, but the destination was definitely some lovely place that female president had meticulously prepared to welcome him...
"Can I cancel the order?" Ji Yan kept one hand hidden
