Hmm, not bad!
The world was so vast. I wanted to go see it.
Life was more than just Bin City before my eyes; there was also distant An City.
[Day Seven. You arrived at a place called Changgang Town and spotted a sneaky Vicious Ghost. It wore a rumpled suit and looked every bit like an office drone.
You were curious about this office-drone ghost, so you followed him all the way.]
[Day Eight. You were still tailing him.
You discovered that he kept stopping and starting, searching all around. You wondered if this Vicious Ghost was looking for his mother.
That afternoon, you saw him enter a men's health hospital.]
Uh...
Jiang Qiao was dumbfounded.
Vicious Ghosts needed men's health treatment too?
In an instant, a headline surfaced in his mind:
<Shocking! A Vicious Ghost Sought Help from an Old Chinese Doctor Late at Night and Solved a Longstanding Unspeakable Problem!>
Ridiculous!
[You followed the Vicious Ghost into the hospital and found that he went straight to the director's office, where there was a bed.
An Evolver lay on the bed, sleeping soundly.
The office-drone ghost walked up to the bed, pulled a rose from his chest, and revealed a wicked smile.
You worried that he might be Brother with a Crooked Mouth among ghosts, so you struck first, rushed forward, tore his mouth apart, and punched him to death.
You made too much noise and woke the Evolver on the bed.
You felt that one person's loneliness was two people's fault.
So you went along with the mistake and sent the Evolver to keep Brother with a Crooked Mouth company.
You found a business card on the Evolver. It bore his name: Chen Pipi.
Below the name was an address: Haicheng Health College.]
[Day Nine. You slaughtered Vicious Ghosts along the way. "Lightning Thunder Fist" and "Invincible Body" rose to the Third Tier, while "Fate Dice" rose to the Second Tier.
The Black Cat grew even larger.]
[Day Ten. Riding on the Black Cat's back, eating hot pot and singing songs, you led the Ghost Infants to a place called Jieqiao Town.
It looked like it had been abandoned long ago.
The houses were ruined and collapsed, weeds grew everywhere, and huge demolition characters were painted all over the walls. If not for the Supernatural Revival, the residents must have been living good lives.
You found a Land Temple in town. Inside was a Little Monk, unconscious from hunger on the ground.]
[Day Eleven. You revived the Little Monk and found that he was a Buddhist Awakener who could consecrate items.
You felt his original name did not suit him, so you renamed him Tang Sanzang.
At noon, you told Sanzang that ghosts had no life, so ghost meat was not meat. Though only ten years old, he nodded and tearfully ate three huge bowls.]
???
Tang... Tang Sanzang?
Jiang Qiao froze for a moment, then chose to remain silent.
→_→
[Day Twelve. You worked with Sanzang to create Explosive Wooden Fish, Flashing Prayer Beads, and Smoke Screen Incense.
You also successfully summoned Namo Gatling Bodhisattva.
You placed the Bodhisattva on a sedan chair.
The view was excellent, and the efficiency of sending Vicious Ghosts on their way was high.]
[...]
[Day Fifteen. After resting for several days, your team set foot on the Anbin Expressway, because the straight line was the shortest distance between two points.
The highway was littered with abandoned vehicles and mottled bloodstains, yet there was no sign of any Vicious Ghosts.]
[Day Sixteen. You found that heaps of white bones had begun appearing on the road, covered in bite marks.
Following the bones, you arrived at a village beside the highway and found many animals within, every one of them carrying Ghost Qi.
These animals included livestock such as pigs, cattle, and sheep, as well as wild animals like boars and mountain deer.
They had occupied the village and devoured every human they encountered.
They spotted you and launched a frenzied attack.
You smiled and activated Stealth.
They instantly became dumbfounded and lost track of you.
You employed the Bodhisattva's methods and subdued them one by one.
That night, you made braised beef, steamed lamb ribs, charcoal-grilled pork legs, pan-seared foie gras...
The Little Monk and White Tiger ate until their mouths glistened with grease, and both grew stronger.
Your Invincible Body rose to the Fourth Order.
You discovered that the Ghost Qi contained within these animals was very easy to absorb.]
[Day Seventeen. You discovered something wrong with the road ahead: it was covered in densely packed, deformed flesh tumors.
These tumors were dark red, with blood vessels covering their surfaces.
Several of your Ghost Infants acting as scouts were accidentally devoured by them.
You could not gauge their strength, so you did not provoke them and chose to take a detour.]
[...]
[Day Twenty-One. Your team passed by a cave when an enormous suction force suddenly came from within, pulling several of your Ghost Infants inside.]
[...]
[Day Twenty-Four. You returned to the highway.
The Ghost Infants discovered a team of Evolvers, more than twenty of them.
They were hunting several Awakened.
You noticed that these Awakened were very young and looked like students.
You were curious.
So you threw over a hundred Explosive Wooden Fish at the Evolvers.
They were immediately thrown into chaos, suffering heavy casualties.
The survivors lay on the ground, cursing loudly. They said you had no martial ethics, that you had launched a sneak attack and could not afford to play fair.
Their vulgar words made you shake your head repeatedly.
You had Fahai consecrate their little mouths.
A flash of golden light passed by, and every curse uttered by the Evolvers automatically turned into words of praise.
You were very satisfied.
Amid their enthusiastic praise, you sent them to the Pure Land.]
[Day Twenty-Six. The Awakened's injuries had barely stabilized. After questioning them, you learned that they were all students of Ancheng University.
They told you that Great West City, an important human stronghold, had lost contact.
The Awakened invited you to visit An City.
After considering it, you declined.
You already knew the route from Bin City to An City.
You decided to visit other cities.]
[...]
[Day Twenty-Nine. You headed toward Lin City. Along the way, you encountered another group of animals with Ghost Qi. You used Stealth to approach them and stabbed them in the back.
That night, your Lightning Thunder Fist broke through to the Fourth Order.]
[Day Thirty. Night.
You encountered seven dwarves three feet tall on the road. They wore old burial clothes, carried orange lanterns, and drove an open-topped carriage.
A plump old woman sat in the carriage.
She wore a tattered princess crown and a filthy gown, gnawing on a fresh human leg.
You were far away and in Stealth, so they did not notice you.]
Holy crap!
That description—
Jiang Qiao stared at the Simulator's contents.
A name flashed through his mind.
Snow White?
