I'm not stupid! if there's any chance to heal my sister I'm willing to sell my soul"
she will definitely not listen to us, maybe I can find something in my shop !! I signal to Li get to let me hide behind him for a minute then open the shop's panel, I look for a way to turn someone back to human, nothing is found which was within my expectations, the shop till now only showed sea and water-related items, let's change the structure, turn a creature into a Murloc
result :
Murloc corpses: it has many uses, one of them is using the corpse as a shell to host a soul, you need to pay the shop for
soul baptism: you can pay the shop for extra service, the soul will be absorbed by the shop, purified to its utmost form, changing it into a water fairy with no physical body nor memories.
curse of the sea: works only on the sinful creatures to the sea, they get a chance to turn unto demon Murloc bound to the sea foe eternity,(too cheap !!!)
.....
I stand in front of the woman, currently, she is standing so I had to look up to talk to her, how can she be so tall!!
I can return your sister sanity and fix her soul but you need to pay for it, although I'm a nice, good person I can't always give things for free!! that and the cost is expensive, I'm planning to save money to buy more sea creatures if it can produce energy-related materials the better, of course, the cost will be doubled.
I'm sorry heroine, but this time you have to depend on yourself, don't worry with your halo it won't take too long for you to pay the installment
"what should I pay ?"
"you can pay 500000 nuclear stones for a brand new body, and 1000 for the transition fee"
"or 30000 nuclear stone for shaping the soul into a water fairy, no memories shall be retained "
"There are other ways, I don't recommend them"
Guo lin sharp eyes like swords widened in shock, she did not believe it but compared to the man with a mask and free price, these guys look more authentic
"you got yourself a deal !!
"eh... so what do you choose?"
"I'll pay triple the original price if you gave her a nice body"
"do not worry our shop is honest and reliable, our reputation is well known you do not fear if you pay quadruple I'll assure you that she'll get a pretty face and a good body with talent !!"
"deal"
"I forgot to mention, I can't assure the gender "
"then forget it, I can't ask for too much"
Li Xiang and everyone else listening to the conversation had a questioning mark on top of their heads: "when did we change into a shop?"
"about the nuclear stones, it might take some time for me to gather so..."
"no",Li Ge interrupts her
"let me finish!!", she almost gnawed her mouth from anger
"you will ask to go with us ", Li Ge says calmly
"what's wrong with it, I can't send the payment via mail ok!!", she refutes with contempt
"you don't get it don't you, the situation you got yourself in is not that simple, I can feel a terrifying breath coming out from that sword, both you and your sister got branded by some seal"
Li Ge continues clearing facts unconcernedly "I'm not jumping unto your problem, so if you wanna save your sister solve your problem!!"
"tch!", Guo lin clicked her tongue, this man saw right through me, how hateful
Li Ge turns his face towards me grabs my wrist then pulls me away
"huh? aren't we gonna help her?", I ask
"do you want to die, besides only she can fix this and... ", he stops talking, looked at me with stern eyes then says
"she tried to push the brand into us even though you tried to help her "
"What!!!how ungrateful!! hmph she deserves it, now I won't fix her sister ", I cry out in disbelief, and I thought she was the heroine, she must be a villain !! even a villain is not this shameless, she's total cannon fodder, a big one!
thank goodness Li Ge saw through her easily, this is what to expect from the protagonist!
Li Xiang kept silent but inside he was indeed impressed by the woman, she was ruthless even to her own sister, from the start she made it look like she's ready to sacrifice herself for the so-called sibling love, gathering our sympathy she specifically choose the softest person between us to fool, as for the story she said before, what she said is indeed the truth but not entirely, she skipped many details, thankfully I did not kill her, I gotta say Erha's softness did stop me from rushing out without thinking, now that he spotted some hidden bloodstains on the walls and on the ground, some is hidden by something, he figured that this is a blood formation! alas, I'm familiar with it, if I kill the branded person or agree to her joining us that reflectively will be referred to as taking her place, chased by that horrible masked man.
walking out of the ancient Chinese house, Li Ge's sight landed on a well not too far, instantly flashes and jumps inside, deep beneath he found a book.
in the shelter, a normal-looking man with a burn scar on his left face and a handicapped leg contrary to what others expected, the presumed miserable man was smiling happily.
I'm called Zhou Yu,30 years old before the earth turned into hell, I was an engineer with some merits, these years I only got to eat some dry bread occasionally I will find canned food between the garbage or hidden in unexpected places, that was his life in the previous shelter, the treatment was harsh but I can't argue against it, everyone is living hard and people who didn't awaken their powers can only be grateful to have the opportunity to live inside the walls.
but all of this changed after I decided to venture outside these protective walls, when I was about to get ravaged by a zombie, a man helped me out and even recruited me into his shelter, me a person with no value got recruited at first I was skeptical but the thing about it if they want to dod something with me I would not have a choice besides my life was saved by him, I took the chance and left with him.
when we arrived, I was mesmerized by the giant strong walls, as an engineer, I couldn't help but appreciate the design of these walls, a touch of ancient culture let the walls have a graceful and powerful feeling; what kind of place is this, how can they built such a place especially in these hard days, you should know building under the besiege of zombies is so hard that shelter had to stop the operation in the middle, and now I'm looking a piece of art of a wall, even in the peaceful times, this will be considered monumental !!
I went in entering the big round dragon gate made like a sculpture of a Chinese dragon making a round shape, blinked 5 times, rubbed my eyes two times and I even had to slap myself to make sure I'm awake, a group of well-organized robots, at first I thought they were humans wearing high-tech armor,(if Erha was beside him, he'll definitely compare it to the robots in 'I robot' movie, only they don't have faces), not many people were here, only some building are built but they were well crafted, the round giant building took all of my attention, made from white crystal and surrounded by a slightly visible shield giving the building magical feeling and that's not it !! it is built in the middle of the sea !!, I also noticed the strange machines used to help build.
I was led to a small building to register, I told them my old profession and they were happy to welcome me, directly giving me the position of constriction manager !!
I've been here now for only two weeks, other than going to work the food is heavenly !! we get to eat fish every day even vegetables !! and when we do a great job they gave us some weird-looking dishes that you can die for, it can strengthen our bodies and some even got to awaken their powers!!
most importantly, we get to shower two times a week!!!
Zhou Yu looks up at the sky with tears in his eyes:" God bless you whoever made this heaven !!"
