Global Horror: With My Netherworld Trillions, Game On! - Chapter 26

Chapter 26: I, the Emperor of Fengdu! Participating in the Transaction!

“Attention, players! Due to the opening of the fifth batch of beta testers, this forum will organize the fourth offline trading event!

“This trading event will take place in Jiangcheng!

“The specific time and address will be communicated via private message after registration!

“Furthermore, every player, whether as a buyer or seller, will have their identity fully concealed during the event!

“All players are encouraged to sign up and leave a message to participate!”

Once the official post from the forum was released, it quickly received a large number of replies!

“I can’t believe the offline gathering is back!”

“I absolutely cannot miss this time!”

“Registering! I hope to find a suitable Yin artifact this time!”

“Sign me up +1!”

Seeing this situation, Lin Yu felt very excited!

Concealed identity, offline gathering, the ability to buy and sell…

It perfectly met Lin Yu’s needs!

Moreover, the city he lived in, Hecheng, was located on the eastern coast of the Xia Country, just like Jiangcheng.

It only took an hour to get to Jiangcheng by car!

Now, seeing so many “players” signing up like they were actors,

Lin Yu’s heart raced even more!

The fact that so many people were participating indicated that the previous three events were very successful…

And it also suggested there would be a significant flow of people!

At that time, whether Lin Yu wanted to buy or trade for good items… it would be a good choice!

As he continued to scroll down, Lin Yu saw some newcomers asking questions.

“What’s so good about this offline trading event? Can’t we post trades and purchase requests online?”

His question was quickly answered by an enthusiastic person.

“Online trading doesn’t allow you to see the goods, and you have to bear the risk!

“And many good items won’t be sold online for the same reason!

“So, at the offline trading event, what you couldn’t find after months of online searching might be available for direct comparison!”

Lin Yu watched as a senior user named “Crazy Blade” answered the question.

He nodded slightly.

“I see…”

After pondering for a moment, he registered a new account.

When naming it, Lin Yu thought for a while and decided to choose a low-key, ordinary nickname.

“Emperor of Fengdu,” registration successful!

There was no way around it. In a forum where everyone went by names like “Crazy Blade,” “Ghost Slayer,” “No Ghost in the World,” “Unmatched Across the Seas,” an ordinary ID seemed quite strange!

He didn’t know who started this trend of such ostentatious names!

“Register.”

After writing this, Lin Yu casually browsed through more posts on the forum.

He also gathered some other somewhat trivial knowledge.

For instance, most ghost controllers suffer from backlash from Yin artifacts and ghosts.

Despite having ghost contracts, their agreements didn’t seem to be like Lin Yu’s one-sided terms…

Basically, they all had to pay ghosts or Yin artifacts with their own souls or promise to provide blood, among other things…

Some even sacrificed their lifespan directly.

Moreover, aside from the costs, the side effects were quite apparent.

Some people would experience intermittent mental instability, becoming eccentric and violent.

Others faced immense physical pain, needing to endure excruciating agony when borrowing ghostly powers or suffering from unbearable itching before sleep…

There were many who became repulsive in appearance and physique!

The stronger the ghost, the heavier the cost and side effects!

Looking at his still healthy body, handsome face, and the honest Zhu Jiang beside him,

Lin Yu couldn’t help but marvel at the power of a perfect-level ghost contract, silently thanking his elder brother Zhu Jiang.

If one were to speak of “costs,” it seemed there were none…

After all, he promised Zhu Jiang he would find him some fine wine.

But for someone with trillions of ghost money, this didn’t count as a painful “cost.”

Not lingering on this thought, Lin Yu’s “Emperor of Fengdu” account received a private message.

“Thursday at 8 PM, Jiangcheng Golden Seat Shopping Center, underground level locker 046!

“Do you have something to sell?”

Lin Yu looked at this slightly strange address and didn’t think much of it. He would find out what was going on when the time came!

“Yes,” he casually replied in the background.

The other party responded immediately, “Okay, looking forward to your arrival!”

After this response, Lin Yu closed the forum.

“Thursday evening… Jiangcheng…” Lin Yu suddenly thought that Xiao Li seemed to be in Jiangcheng too?

That piece of paper with her phone number was still lying beside his computer, but after hesitating for a moment, Lin Yu ultimately didn’t call.

“Let it be!”

—

At the same time, in Jiangcheng!

Xiao Li also closed the forum at the same time.

“I signed up for the offline trading event… I hope I can buy some useful things back…”

Thinking this, she couldn’t help but feel a bit excited, yet also a bit regretful.

“I wonder… will Brother Lin come to Jiangcheng?

“Darn it, I was so focused on giving Brother Lin my number! I forgot to ask for his!”
