Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

Chapter 240: Chapter 126: Will the Cyber Jesus Respond to Electronic Buddhists Too?

Ju Li tilted her head with a quirky expression, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Just as the human and the ghost were preparing to board the boat and leave for the next location to continue their capture, Lu Wenwu suddenly frowned and, without any warning, turned around and threw a punch.

In the next instant, his entire body came to an abrupt halt.

The violent airflow flattened the few plants on this small mountaintop, as if the whole mountain had been shaved down a layer.

The iron fist that could crush the head of the Hell Three-headed Dog stopped right at the nose of an Old Ghost who was already scared out of his wits.

The lower half of the Old Ghost was still stuck in the ground, while his upper body became so transparent it was almost flickering.

Now it was wildly flickering between shades of green and white, looking from a distance like a broken neon light.

Lu Wenwu used his Eye of Insight to scan and sensed it with his own spiritual power.

It’s an E-level ordinary ghost soul, with no cultivation aura.

Judging from the attire, he seemed to be a tourist backpacker?

But his left hand holding a cross, right hand holding a peach wood sword, and wearing an Ancient Egypt golden sacred beetle around his neck was a bit abstract.

Is this some kind of three-faith fusion?

Even Greek mythological creatures don’t recognize this kind of tri-religious mishmash!

Lu Wenwu withdrew his fist and looked at Ju Li.

This was the first time he encountered such a situation, it was better to leave it to the experienced Old Ghost to handle.

“Ghost Gate Security Bureau, Exotic Invasive Species Control Department, currently investigating a multinational species smuggling case, please cooperate, thank you.”

Ju Li quickly stepped forward, cast a Clear Heart and Calm God Spell on the Old Ghost, and showed her credentials.

“Name, address, ID, and the reason for being here, please answer truthfully.”

“Ghost…Ghost Messenger, have all those monsters…really gone?” The Old Ghost was trembling with fear.

“They have been cleared, this place is safe.” Ju Li nodded slightly, “Please answer my previous question and cooperate with the investigation, thank you.”

The Old Ghost answered tremblingly: “Sir, my name is Zong Dezhang, I live in Knife-cut District, Luochuan Street, Chujiang District, Building 12, Unit 4, Room 413, I…I lost my ID while fleeing, it’s really not that I’m not cooperating, sir!”

“In life, I loved hiking and climbing, I’d been to Beiyin Mountain several times before, but only ever entered the public areas. I thought the restricted wild areas should be more interesting, so I sneaked in.”

“But as soon as I got in, I encountered these three or four-headed monsters, and even with the Yin Wind at my back, I couldn’t escape. I lost everything until I was cornered on this mountaintop.”

“Desperate, I had no choice but to turn phantom and hide in the rocks until you captured these monsters, and then I thought I’d come up and take a look.”

At this point, the Old Ghost was about to cry.

With a thud, he knelt before Ju Li.

“S-sir, does this count as me turning myself in? Can…can I get a reduced sentence…”

In front of the living Lu Wenwu, feeling that the Old Ghost was somewhat embarrassing the Underworld, Ju Li couldn’t help but maintain her expression.

Having just finished exams, Lu Wenwu shrugged strongly, being at the peak of his knowledge reserve:

“There’s no need for a sentence, at most this is a violation of park regulations for illegally entering a nature reserve, maybe fined a couple of pounds of Netherworld Currency. Provided you haven’t harmed any protected spirits or destroyed any protected demons.”

“No, no, absolutely not!” The Old Ghost shook his head and hands quickly, “Where would I dare! Besides, with my abilities, surviving is thanks to Lady Houtu’s blessing! Accumulated great virtue, auspiciousness connecting to heaven.”

“I can see that.”

Lu Wenwu glanced at the string of protective charms representing the three-faith fusion hanging on him and nodded in recognition.

This was genuine fear visible to the naked eye.

Just like one of his friends in the previous life.

Never mind horror games, even playing Rainbow Six made him jumpy, hiding in corners, barricading walls, and shivering, not daring to step out while guarding a point.

If this old fellow wasn’t a recurrent winner of the Golden Horse Award as a posthumous Best Actor, and climbed to the Peak of S Rank mastering the Heaven-defying Concealing Breath Skill, then he’s definitely telling the truth now.

However, as Lu Wenwu unintentionally opened the Eye of Insight and scanned, he had something left unsaid.

This thing…

Ju Li returned the ID card to him, smirking: “How many years have you been down here and you still believe in this? Was it scavenged from the stalls at Taishan Night Market? Stop wasting your money, save some to get yourself a better reincarnation next life, or at least buy some more Yin life span.”

Upon hearing this, the Old Ghost was instantly frantic: “Impossible, how could it be fake! I spent a lot buying this relic from a reliable ghost in the Human World, it’s authentic!”

Ju Li neither agreed nor disagreed.

Many old ghosts who passed away naturally are stubborn as heck.

Even if they are illiterate, they have blind confidence in their own beliefs and refuse to accept new ideas or innovations.

Commonly known as obstinate old fossils.

Having worked in the Underworld for so many years, she’s seen enough of this, so she had no intention of arguing with the Old Ghost.

Let go of helping ghosts and respect a ghost’s fate.

Yes, yes, you’re right in every sense, whatever you say is correct.

What neither the human nor the ghost expected was that seeing Ju Li’s perfunctory expression, the previously terrified Old Ghost suddenly bristled.
