Free Web NovelChapter 883: Chapter 847: Oh No
The reviewer rubbed his eyes, somewhat unable to believe his own eyes.
As a rare species, Sacrificial Ghosts grow very slowly, even in the Jinche Room where growth speed is drastically increased, it still takes nearly ten days to fully mature.
Sprouting takes at least two days.
But these seeds were just planted, and while we were chatting, a seed has already sprouted? And it’s a Rare Ghost type.
The reviewer was lucky enough to witness the growth process of Sacrificial Ghosts, knowing that when it sprouts, it’s merely a palm-sized, closed-eyed little human. But as time goes by, it grows larger, and its eyes gradually open as it matures.
He wondered if the ghost would have expressions before it matures, hopefully, it won’t. Otherwise, when the Sacrificial Ghost opens its eyes and sees Gu Mian, it might get scared out of its wits.
The reviewer felt really troubled, thinking that the name Sacrificial Ghost is truly fitting; from the moment it appears, it is destined for sacrifice, he wondered if he could still stuff it back now.
Gu Mian looked at the Sacrificial Ghost seedling that hadn’t opened its eyes yet, pondering whether he should pretend to be dead when it’s mature.
Just as the reviewer reached out to slap his temples harshly, two more seedlings sprouted.
He opened his mouth wide, staring at the two newly sprouted seedlings.
One of the seedlings grew into a human head, but this head seemed plastic, like those mannequin heads in shopping malls.
Fatty stared at the head for a while, then pointed at it: "What kind of ghost is this? I haven’t seen a ghost model with a head like this in the hall."
The commenter was sweating profusely; he wiped his forehead: "I... I don’t know either, I’ve never seen it before."
He truly hadn’t seen it; evidently, it was a rare species that hadn’t appeared before.
The reviewer felt like he was dreaming today, first encountering Gu Mian, who he had only dreamed of, and then witnessing the rapid sprouting of two rare ghost species.
During the opening period of the instance, he had only seen a rare ghost species once, but now, in a mere few minutes, two sprouted consecutively.
The newly sprouted Plastic Ghost Head opened its eyes early, just as the reviewer wiped the sweat off his forehead, the head had opened its eyes.
Its eyes were big, but its black pupils were pitifully small, almost reduced to the size of a pinhead.
This made its appearance extraordinarily eerie and terrifying, the head first moved its eyes to stare deathly at Fatty, probably confirming if Fatty was its Cultivator.
"Not me, not me." Fatty quickly waved his hands, then pointed at Gu Mian, "Our doctor is the one who cultivated you."
The Plastic Human Head awkwardly rotated its head in the soil, then used its pin-sized black pupils to glare fiercely at Gu Mian.
What a surprise glare that was.
In the instant its gaze met Gu Mian’s, its already small black pupils shrank even further, almost disappearing.
Fatty saw the head almost get scared out of the ground – if it really could, it would probably have jumped three feet high by now, trying to escape.
Poor Plastic Human Head couldn’t leave the ground, so it just shivered in fear a few times, then seemed to have thought of a bright idea, its eyes lit up, and the entire head twisted and pulled into the ground.
It was like being flushed down a toilet, within moments the head had disappeared, leaving only a human-head-sized deep pit on the ground.
Fatty: "..."
Reviewer: "..."
Then 007’s voice came from the direction of the stairs: "We’ve connected the ropes."
She and Keke were walking down the stairs holding several bundles of ropes made from sheets stitched together, a task entrusted to them by Gu Mian to use for kidnapping ghosts once they mature.
and Keke, arriving at the greenhouse door, also saw the deep pit near Gu Mian’s feet.
"Is such a deep pit needed for planting seeds?" Keke wondered aloud.
"No..." Fatty began to explain, "It wasn’t for planting seeds; the seed sprouted and then ran away."
Ran away after sprouting?
found Fatty’s words difficult to understand; then she noticed the other two newly sprouted seedlings.
"Those two sprouting seedlings seem to look identical." She stated.
Hearing this, Gu Mian looked at the two seedlings on the ground, seeing that the newly sprouted one had actually turned into a ginseng fruit shape.
Before the Ginsengfruit could be shocked, the reviewer’s jaw almost dislocated: "Three... three... three rare species, three rare species have sprouted..."
And two of them are the same kind of Sacrificial Ghosts, how much do these Sacrificial Ghosts want to sacrifice!
Players who came to this instance and used the Jinche Room to plant ghosts had never seen such a high yield rate; he had only seen a rare species once.
"Rare species?" 007 looked at the two ginseng fruits on the ground. "These two humanoid shapes look quite normal. It seems there really aren’t ghost models similar to these two humanoids in the hall, so what kind of ghost is this?"
"Sacrificial Ghosts," the reviewer said, "the Cultivator who planted this ghost must die before we can leave." Fatty spoke with a grieving expression, seemingly about to start mourning Gu Mian.
"I see you’re looking to die." Gu Mian’s sinister voice came from behind.
"Haha, the ground upstairs isn’t set right, I’ll go help everyone set it." Fatty said as he quickly dashed out of the greenhouse, as he ran out the door, he seriously asked, "Even though right now only the doctor has planted ghosts, considering the doctor’s level of misfortune, the ghost he planted are mostly rare species."
There are no introduction cards for rare ghost species in the hall, Fatty felt a bit worried: "The introduction for ordinary ghosts in the hall says they only attack growers, but rare ghost species are unpredictable, otherwise, I might as well bring the quilts down, we can set our ground outside the greenhouse door."
Although the greenhouse door is closest to the ghosts, Fatty always felt safer being closer to Gu Mian.
nodded: "We can take turns watching when we rest, and if there’s any movement in the greenhouse, wake the others up."
She then turned to look at Gu Mian, as if to ask if he’s figured out why the Evil God asked him to come here.
But at that moment, Gu Mian was squatting to observe one of the seedlings on the ground, so 007 swallowed her words and decided to ask when he’s free.
"Actually, I can help you guys watch here." Just then, the reviewer volunteered fervently, his gaze sincere, "Additionally, I can help water and aerate the soil, observing the seeds’ growth."
He showed them a digital stopwatch he had prepared.
"Doctor, better not trust him," Fatty interjected, "what if you leave him here and he secretly uses Rapid Growth Agent to mature the ghosts quickly, then forcibly takes them to the stage for evaluation?" freёwebnovel.com
"Why would I do that?" The reviewer immediately turned to defend himself.
While he was making excuses, something suddenly fell from his bulging pocket — his pocket was so packed that turning slightly caused something to fall out.
The nearest 007 picked up the object that had fallen on the ground.
It was something resembling a light bulb, and once it reached 007’s hand, a panel popped out.
"It’s an item," she said, looking at the panel emerging from the lightbulb in hand, reading the item’s name aloud, "Ghost... Ghost Rapid Growth Bulb?"
