Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

To acquire a new profession, you need a full 500 reward points.

This is naturally a good thing for players who directly become the right profession, as it saves them a fee.

But for players with poor skills or those whose skills don't suit them, all they can do is silently curse the damned mysterious merchant.

……

Deep within the ruins of the castle.

On the rusty Iron Throne, a massive skeleton wields a giant sword and is covered in jet-black armor.

The ghostly aura emanating from the gaps in the armor condensed into a ghostly blue flame, which adhered to the armor.

The randomly scattered ghostly flames scorched the ground black.

【Ghost General (Elite)】, Level 13.

When Fang Yi created the game framework, he set the levels very rigorously.

Every 10 levels represents a significant dividing line, much like how a Chunin can easily defeat a Genin in the ninja world.

After reaching level 10, both the four main attributes and skills will see a significant boost.

Therefore,

Reaching level 10 requires a huge amount of experience, which is why Mei Terumi, despite consuming Kirigakure's resources, has not been able to break through to level 10.

The ghost general under the command of the ghost mage Salina is far stronger than an ordinary ghost.

If the player manages to kill the Ghost General, it's equivalent to severing one of Salina's strong arms.

The white-haired loli said worriedly, "Master, the players have absolutely no chance of defeating the Ghost General. Should we step in and guide them to give up and level up first?"

"unnecessary."

Fang Yi calmly said, "I bet the Ghost General won't last more than three days. It will be skinned and dismembered by the players, and even its decent greatsword will be snatched up."

The white-haired loli completely failed to understand her master's thoughts, only assuming that her master was unaware of the difference between the Ghost General and the players.

She quickly explained, "The Ghost General's greatsword is the Blood Fiend Greatsword that has slain hundreds of knights. According to your classification, it is a level 10 purple equipment, and the blood-red armor he wears is a level 10 blue set."

"The blonde, busty female player you recruited earlier was able to challenge a level 6 player while wearing only a level 1 green set."

"A ghost general dressed in a blue suit and wielding a purple greatsword—can you comprehend the difference in strength between him and a player?"

Seeing Fang Yi fall into deep thought,

The white-haired loli breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Fang Yi would act rashly and needlessly deliver himself to the Ghost General.

To everyone's surprise, Fang Yi suddenly raised his head.

"Publish Ghost General's information in the server channel, especially highlighting the equipment slots, and emphasize that the Blood Fiend Greatsword and Crimson Armor Set are guaranteed drops."

A purple greatsword?

Blue suit?

Fang Yi had initially thought that players might give up hunting the Ghost General.

The mistake was that Ghost General, you were foolish enough to be covered in high-quality equipment.

Isn't this like giving players a stimulant?

Chapter 16 Information Disclosure

Server Channel

Mysterious Merchant: Information is being released in light of the players' breach of the outer perimeter of the ruined castle.

Information about the Ghost General, and the guaranteed drop of purple equipment, appeared in the message bar at the top of the channel.

in an instant,

The announcement at the top of the screen caused an uproar among all the players.

The initial enthusiasm of the players waned due to the excessive consumption of resources during the attack on the castle ruins, including the waste of countless life and magic potions, and most were considering giving up.

This announcement reversed the previous downward trend.

Not only was he not afraid of the Ghost General's terrifying strength, but he felt hot all over and his blood was boiling.

"I was worried that after we used up hundreds of reward points on life potions, the Ghost General wouldn't drop anything. I didn't expect it to drop purple equipment as a guaranteed drop?"

"Level 10 purple equipment can sell for 20,000 reward points in the shop!"

"Whether we live a life of hardship or one of extravagance depends on whether we can kill the Ghost General!"

Currently, all players can be broadly divided into three types.

One type consists of ninjas from the five great nations with impeccable lineage, possessing outstanding talent and rich combat awareness, making them the top tier of players.

Secondly, there was the noble contingent, a mixed bag, including hired samurai and wandering ninjas.

The nobles, relying on gold and silver jewelry and spending money, barely managed to support the latter two groups, forming a team that was barely no weaker than the ninjas.

Finally, there is the cooperation between ordinary people and merchants. They have neither outstanding talents nor the financial resources to spend money, but they make up the majority of the player team, numbering as many as three or four hundred people.

Everyone wants to hunt down the Ghost General.

The most enthusiastic players are those from the lower classes, hoping to seize this opportunity to rise above the nobility and ninjas.

The white-haired loli was completely bewildered, with the illusion that the world had broken down.

"Shouldn't they be terrified and flee in the face of the powerful Ghost General?"

I simply can't understand the thought process of these players.

In a world once consumed by pollution, even the most determined warriors, even those granted the ability to resurrect or the talent to rewind time, would still flee and fear when faced with a powerful enemy they could not defeat.

"what is going on?"

"Because of desire."

Fang Yi smiled and pointed to the excited players behind the screen, saying, "The lowest-level commoners can only painstakingly cultivate wasteland, eating chaff and wild vegetables every day, while most of their food is taken away by the nobles."

"Ninjas risk their lives for meager rewards. Despite putting in a thousand times the effort to train, they are easily crushed by the geniuses of powerful clans and bloodline limits."

"The emergence of the reincarnation game gives them the opportunity to break free from their current situation."

"When you're hungry, you want a bowl of thin porridge."

"After eating their fill, they want luxurious clothes and spacious rooms."

"After moving into a luxurious courtyard, they wanted servants and maids to wait on them."

"After seeing ninjas who could split mountains and shatter rocks, I wanted to pursue greater strength."

Fang Yi smiled as usual and said, "Even the most determined warrior will despair because of the Demon King's power, but desire will never be restrained by anything, it will only continue to grow."

"In the face of desire, even the sources of pollution that constantly devour the world seem insignificant."

The entire ruined castle was filled with the deafening sounds of battle.

The Ghost General can consume soul power to continuously create ghost soldiers.

Players can also revive, although it consumes reward points. However, the reward points are replenished after killing the ghost soldiers, thus creating a cycle.

"I am Mabui. I have received the latest order from Lord Raikage: we must successfully hunt down the Ghost General and absolutely cannot let other ninja villages beat us to it."

"Lord Raikage has allocated 500 million yen as funding for this operation."

The tall and voluptuous Samui accepted the trade request from the strategist Mabui and received a reward of one thousand points.

Open the game store.

She finally got the narrow-bladed short sword she had been eyeing for a long time.

A total of four thousand reward points.

【Swift Blade】, a level 5 blue weapon, increases agility by 5 points and comes with a swiftness buff, which enhances movement speed by 10 points.

Samui, who was holding the short knife, also had blonde hair and large breasts, but her slightly narrow eyes and shoulder-length short hair gave her a cool and alluring look.

Feeling the changes the weapon brought to his body, Samui lightly touched the ground with his toes.

For an instant.

He was already behind Omoi, a short knife at his neck.

Omoi was so shocked that he didn't even have time to react. If Samoi had made a move, he would have already returned to town and resurrected.

"So strong!"

Omoi swallowed hard; this speed was almost approaching Samoi's actual strength.

Jonin.

Samui is a swordsman with dazzling sword skills, and before he entered the reincarnation game, he was no match for him.

The cycle of reincarnation games—this terrifying rate of growth is truly mesmerizing.

……

"I got a blue skill!"

North of the ruined castle, Chojuro's face flushed red.

The corpse of a ghost squad leader slowly dissipated, and the dropped items, enveloped in a blue ball of light, appeared.

His hands trembled as he picked up the ball of light and examined the properties of the falling object.

Skill Scroll [Silver Light Slash]: In jump mode, unleash a powerful downward thrust, creating a shockwave.

This course is limited to professionals in close-contact settings.

"It's a sword technique!"

Chojuro's breathing became rapid.

After the reshuffling of Kirigakure, he also showed amazing talent and was chosen by Mei Terumi as the successor to the Twin Swords Hiramekarei.

Therefore, while practicing ninjutsu, he also continuously studied the use of ninja swords.

Until entering the cycle of reincarnation,
