Chapter 836 - 517: Nether Envoy, Bribery, and Panel
[You have eliminated one of the wardens of the Land of the Dead Soul and obtained a new identity: Spirit Envoy.]
[You have been upgraded to Lv23, with 1 point added to agility, 1 point added to constitution, 1 point added to Spirit, and your inventory space increased by 3 cubic units.]
After eliminating the formidable ghost, Wang Zhifan saw the notification screen of the transcendent game, informing him that he had been fighting from night till day, and it wasn’t in vain.
"Unexpectedly rewarded with a new identity... Ever since I became an SVIP player, I haven’t encountered something like this..."
Moreover, I’ve leveled up by three levels, it seems this dungeon without settlement rewards can be farmed for experience."
The newly acquired reward type surprised Wang Zhifan, and he immediately focused on the words "Spirit Envoy" to read the detailed information.
[Spirit Envoy]
[Type: Identity.]
[A Spirit Envoy is a prestigious emissary of the netherworld; only those recognized by the netherworld can obtain this extremely rare identity.]
[As a Spirit Envoy, you can summon countless ghosts and control groups of demons; even the Ghost King is inclined to obey your commands.
Additionally, you can communicate with the underworld and interact with entities who have been deceased for years.
You can even pay a price to bring the soul of the dead from the netherworld back to the human realm.]
"As per the description, the Spirit Envoy has the ability to summon and control ghost types, communicate between the living and the dead, and resurrect the deceased...
The strength and utility are both high, though it feels a bit unrelated to my warrior profession...
But having this identity is certainly a great thing."
After a brief contemplation, Wang Zhifan confirmed that his recent gains were truly valuable, theoretically greatly enhancing both his combat and non-combat capabilities.
For instance, he could rely on the Spirit Envoy identity to summon a Ghost King to assist him in battle, which would undoubtedly be a significant advantage against enemies.
While gathering intelligence, he could use the ability to communicate between the living and the dead to obtain valuable information from them.
Resurrecting the dead doesn’t even need mention, even if requiring some sacrifice, being able to bring back the dead is undoubtedly a powerful ability.
"The introduction of the Spirit Envoy identity mentioned that only those recognized by the netherworld can obtain it, does that mean after eliminating that formidable female ghost, the netherworld recognized me?
This formidable female ghost is, according to the game’s notification, one of the wardens of the Land of the Dead Soul; it seems eliminating her was a kind of trial, and presumably, the force supporting her previously was the power of the netherworld."
I need to quickly find the other wardens of the Land of the Dead Soul and thoroughly exploit their benefits as well!"
Having received high-quality rewards, Wang Zhifan wasn’t complacent but realized that this dungeon had much more to offer.
After all, he had only eliminated one warden; what if he eliminated all the other wardens? That would certainly be exhilarating!"
Thus, without resting, he immediately began determining the positions of the other wardens.
Initially, he thought of jumping into a sacrificial ritual, but quickly realized, now being a Spirit Envoy, he didn’t need to resort to mere shamanistic low-level methods.
Hence, he activated his mind and attempted to communicate with the netherworld, hoping the netherworld would directly reveal the information he wanted.
However, after some effort, he gradually sensed the grandeur and terror of the netherworld; it seemed to be a profound concept transcending numerous worlds, beyond the mere control of a single Spirit Envoy, prompting him to settle for summoning a local Ghost King.
With his thought, a powerful malevolent energy surged from underground in front of him, instantly coalescing into the form of a three-meter-tall red-clad female ghost.
This female ghost bore some resemblance in appearance to the formidable ghost he previously vanquished, yet the Red Ghost King before him wasn’t particularly terrifying.
Aside from the pitch-black eyes, pale skin, long nails, and floating above the ground, she resembled more a young woman exuding a cold and seductive aura.
Though standing at three meters tall, she emitted an almost tangible massive malevolent energy.
Upon the appearance of this local Ghost King, Wang Zhifan established a subtle mental connection with her, a special ability granted by the Spirit Envoy identity for easy communication with ghosts.
"Do you know how many wardens are left in the Land of the Dead Soul? Where are they located?"
Slightly raising his head to gaze at the powerful aura of the Ghost King, Wang Zhifan inquired through the mental channel.
"Three... me... south... west..."
The powerful Red Ghost King immediately responded to him in the mental channel, with a voice both eerie and steady, indicating she was one of the wardens and the others were located elsewhere.
"What the heck... actually summoned the target directly..."
For a moment, Wang Zhifan felt somewhat speechless; he didn’t expect casually summoning his intended target would make him feel slightly embarrassed.
Contemplating further, he added:
"Kindly provide more detailed locations for the other two wardens; I have some business with them."
But the Red Ghost King seemed to see through his thoughts, directly responding in the mental channel:
"Spirit Envoy... do not kill the wardens... otherwise... punishment from the netherworld... removal of identity... dragged into the underworld..."
Her manner of speaking in the mental channel differed from humans, somewhat interrupted but concise; a few connected words conveyed the entire meaning to Wang Zhifan.
"Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhifan furrowed his brows and quickly activated the powers of the Spirit Envoy identity to communicate with the netherworld.
That was a very unique connection, though the netherworld was not a living entity that would respond to him, he indeed sensed the basic rules transmitted by the netherworld, the prohibition of internal conflict among the high ranks, with severe punishment for violators.
