Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

This possibility could explain the old woman's final actions.

"Then what should we do?"

"First, go hunt down the Ghost Tree Demon Heart, then put it in your inventory and observe the situation. No matter how powerful Master Ning is, he can't break the rules of the Reincarnation Game and steal items from the player's inventory."

The discussion ended quickly.

The naval alliance squad had left Guobei County, and an abandoned temple gradually came into view ahead.

Lanruo Temple.

The air was thick with eerie energy, and wandering ghost tree spirits roamed everywhere.

"A rain of blazing gunfire..."

Borsalino swung his arms, continuously throwing golden flame guns into the sky, which gathered into a golden sea of ​​clouds.

Countless fine, thorn-like beams of light rained down relentlessly.

Even the black mist covering the forest was partially broken through by the golden flames, and the ghost tree demon was pierced by the golden light, letting out a shrill roar.

"Fire Demon Hell!"

A cold voice sounded.

Akainu's skin turned crimson, his temperature suddenly rose, and then his whole body writhed like lava, like waves whipped up by a raging storm, covering the demon tree spirit.

The flames and magma killed all the dozen or so ghost tree demons that were blocking the way outside Lanruo Temple.

【Ghost Tree Demon King Lv.49】: The king who commands the Ghost Tree Demons, a gold-level boss.

A giant tree with a canopy that blocked out the sky and a trunk as thick as a baobab tree stretched out countless vines, sweeping towards the five people like a sea of ​​vines.

"Don't just stand there watching the show, those Gold-level Ghost Tree Spirits are not easy to deal with!"

Smoker looked up, his face serious as he stared at the terrifying attack of the Dryad King.

A vortex of venom condensed beneath his feet, enveloping his entire body and solidifying into a small giant clad in purple venomous armor.

boom.

The poisonous fist struck the trunk of the Ghost Tree Demon King, but it felt like hitting steel, completely unable to break through its defenses.

The Demon King of the Ghost Tree swung its branches, and the vines wrapped around Smoker, frantically absorbing the energy of the Purple Poison Armor like a vacuum cleaner.

The branches, leaves, and trunk were dyed purple at an extremely fast pace.

However, the Ghost Tree Demon King showed no signs of being poisoned.

"Such strong toxin resistance! Help!"

Smoker broke out in a cold sweat; he hadn't expected this demon tree king to be so troublesome.

"Demon-Slaying Iron Fist!"

Iron Fist Garp bent his legs and stomped the ground, smashing it like a cannonball, and punched the Demon Tree King on the head.

Click...

The pure physical iron fist punched the Ghost Tree Demon King's steel trunk, leaving fist marks and cracks extending outwards from the fist marks.

The Demon King of the Ghost Trees seemed to feel no pain and continued to hold onto Smoker.

Furthermore, absorbing Smoker's energy, the fist imprint visibly and rapidly recovered.

Bang bang bang!

The brilliant bursts of light exploded continuously, like blooming fireworks.

Iron Fist Garp, like an iron pickaxe digging a mine, used his fists to snap off a thick branch of the Demon Tree King.

"Such hard fists, looks like a boxer? Or a martial artist?"

Orochimaru kept licking the corners of his mouth, somewhat shocked by the power Garp was unleashing.

A necromancer like myself is most afraid of being approached by such a brute.

It seems that when ambushing Smoker, one must avoid him.

Snake Curse.

Orochimaru opened his mouth wide and spat out countless undead curse snakes, which twisted their tails and crawled onto the Demon Tree Demon King's body.

Then, all the cursed snakes turned to ashes as if they had spontaneously combusted.

The area where it spontaneously combusted left a black mark that looked like it had been burned.

The black snake marks seemed to have a life of their own, swimming and converging on the trunk of the Ghost Tree Demon King to form a huge black snake pattern.

boom.

The black snake-like pattern exploded, blasting a huge gash into the steel tree trunk that even Iron Fist Garp needed dozens of punches to break through.

Although the Gold-level boss is powerful,

However, the members of the Navy Alliance squad were all top players in the Reincarnation Game. With their combined efforts, the Ghost Tree Demon King was quickly killed.

Game items were scattered all over the ground.

【The Heart of the Ghost Tree Demon King】: After consuming it, energy defense is permanently increased by 500 points.

【Ghost Tree (Gem)】: Increases [Dark Attribute] by 600 points after socketing.

【Ghost Tree Demon King's Scepter (Gold)】: When worn, it can consume energy to summon the Ghost Tree Demon. The Ghost Tree Demon's level is related to the player's energy quality.

……

"It's all good stuff!"

Orochimaru's eyes flickered as they landed on the gold-grade scepter.

The Ghost Tree Spirit belongs to the Yin element, which perfectly matches the attributes of the undead army.

The necromancer's staff he's currently equipped with is also gold-grade, and its effect is to enhance the attack power of necromancer summons. It's an extremely rare and precious attribute, so naturally, he can't replace it.

However, the [Equipment Devouring System] allows one's [Necromancer's Scepter] to devour this Ghost Tree Scepter.

It possesses the ability to summon ghost tree spirits.

"This scepter of the Ghost Tree Demon King has been of great help to me. There shouldn't be any other summoning players here besides me, right?"

Orochimaru showed no mercy, flicking his tongue like a snake as he grabbed the Demon Tree King's scepter and tossed it into his equipment slot.

The others didn't stop it either.

Orochimaru made a significant contribution in hunting this Gold-ranked Tree Demon, and besides, this scepter was of little help to the other players present.

"Lieutenant General Garp, why don't you take Mu Xin?"

After observing Woodheart's attributes, Smoker looked at Iron Fist Garp.

The opponent is a pure physical cultivator. If he eats this piece of wood, his energy defense will be greatly enhanced. 500 points of energy defense is enough to ignore the magic skills of some mages whose mental attribute is lower than 100.

It could completely transform Iron Fist Garp into a mage killer.

"In the new season... before even encountering the Tree Demon Granny, the game items dropped by a single Gold-level boss can completely transform a player."

Akainu's gaze was serious; in terms of strategic vision, he was considered one of the more outstanding admirals.

Otherwise, in the original story, he would not have been able to become a naval admiral.

From the fall of the Ghost Tree Demon King alone, he sensed that the Black Myth Map contained treasures akin to a mineral deposit.

If they can seize the initiative, the Naval Alliance might be able to sweep through the Reincarnation Game.

"Continue, proceed to Lanruo Temple!"

Chapter 448 A Chinese Ghost Story - Nie Xiaoqian

Before even entering the [Lanruo Temple], I already obtained rare game items such as the scepter and the wooden heart.

The naval alliance squad was looking forward to the monsters they would encounter once they entered the temple.

A vast forest of dead leaves, the ground covered with rotting yellow leaves.

Passing through layers of bare, towering trees, a dilapidated temple came into view.

Outside the temple,

None of the five rushed in; instead, they pondered the task Master Ning had mentioned.

"Have you collected enough tree hearts, two hundred Ghost Tree Spirits?"

"There are already fifty. Although the Ghost Tree Demon is strong and has energy resistance, it still poses no threat to us."

All the demonic tree hearts were thrown into Akainu's inventory.

Along the way, the five of them hunted about two hundred ghost tree demons. Although the tree heart that Master Ning needed was not a guaranteed drop, the drop rate was still quite high.

Orochimaru raised a point of suspicion, sticking out his tongue as he said, "Didn't you guys notice that the mission Master Ning issued was far too simple?"

"Although I am reluctant to think about troublesome matters, there are indeed some strange things."

Kizaru crouched down, his Flame Spear sweeping out a circle behind him, slicing the attacking Tree Spirit in two.

Snapped.

Another Ghost Tree Heart has fallen.

These quest materials don't appear in treasure chests at all; they just drop directly on the ground.

Kizaru picked up the Demon Tree Heart and tossed it to Akainu, saying, "With our strength, we can complete the mission before dawn. Go find the Demon Clothes Scholar."

then,

Would that give you access to a powerful henchman from a legendary boss?

Smoker frowned, sensing an underlying unease.

The rule of the reincarnation game has always been equivalent exchange; the higher the quality of the treasure chest, the more powerful the monster must be hunted to obtain it.

This mission, which was far too easy for the naval alliance squad, made them feel uneasy.

"Also, the old woman who was just killed by Orochimaru seems to be hiding something."
