Supermarkets connect to all realms, it's not too much for a succubus to like me, is it?

A dark figure slowly approached, its feet treading the ground...

With each step, the ground trembled slightly, and the chill felt like a knife cutting into my face!

The supermarket windows suddenly frosted over!

Ice patterns spread wildly, and frost flowers instantly covered the entire window!

A silent, menacing aura of gray-black permeated the air!

The earthy, pungent smell, reminiscent of an ancient tomb, enveloped the entire venue!

Temperatures plummeted!

Breath turns to mist, and all things fall silent—

Lin Mo subconsciously swallowed, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, the sound of which was exceptionally clear in the deathly silence.

He was now regretting how much fun he had just had swatting people with the fly swatter. What the hell had he attracted?

"Zero, explain yourself!"

Lin Mo roared inwardly, his voice trembling slightly, a tremor he himself didn't even realize.

"Tsk, look at your pathetic self."

Zero's annoying little girl voice rang out at just the right moment, full of schadenfreude, as if she didn't want things to get out of hand.

"I've already said that the system has connected to the 'underworld channel.' From midnight tonight until 5 a.m., your shop's customers will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the living world."

"Friendly reminder, dear master,"

Zero's voice trailed off, tinged with a hint of cunning.

"As a newbie perk, the system has waived your first day's interdimensional connection fee, but you'll need to earn 10 interdimensional points to pay for tonight's 'basic shop operation and maintenance fee.' If you don't earn them before dawn, well…"

Zero let out a series of strange laughs:

"It's basically like the shop was forcibly repossessed, and your soul was also taken as a late payment fee."

I rely on!

Lin Mo felt like a million grass mud horses were galloping through his mind.

This damn system not only forces people to buy and sell, but it also offers soul-based loans?

Before he could finish his internal monologue, the figure had already reached the supermarket entrance.

"Squeak—"

The supermarket glass door, which had been kicked and twisted, mysteriously opened inward on its own!

The crack tightened instantly on the glass!

A biting, chilling wind swept in!

The chill was like needles piercing to the bone!

The bag of potato chips was being whipped around by the strong wind and was shaking violently!

Packaging bags fluttered, goods swayed, and the air instantly tensed!

The visitor finally revealed their true identity.

It was a tall woman, or rather, a female ghost.

She was wearing a set of ancient armor that was already tattered and covered with marks from knife and axe cuts and dried, blackened bloodstains.

Her long, black hair was disheveled and draped over her shoulders, with a few strands clinging to her bloodless cheeks, making her face appear even paler.

Her features were actually extremely delicate, but at this moment her eyes were empty, filled with death and years of loneliness.

In her left hand she carried a bronze lantern that emitted a faint green flame, while in her right hand she gripped a broken sword that was now only half intact.

What alarmed Lin Mo the most was that her figure was not completely solid; there was a faint shadow at the edges, as if a gust of wind could blow it away.

The moment the female ghost stepped into the store, the temperature in the entire supermarket seemed to plummet into an ice cave.

Lin Mo could even see the white breath he exhaled.

"Zero, what... what level is this?"

"A low-level Earthbound Spirit, trapped in an ancient tomb for years, her resentment is pent up, and her soul is severely damaged. In terms of combat power across multiple realms, she's only slightly stronger than that blond guy from before. However," Zero changed the subject, "the Yin energy on her body can freeze an ordinary person into an ice pop in three seconds and cause their soul to dissipate in five seconds. Congratulations, you've drawn a beginner's experience card."

Lin Mo: "..."

He felt like his teeth were chattering.

The female ghost... no, the vengeful spirit of the female knight-errant, entered the shop and scanned the unfamiliar surroundings with her empty gaze.

The colorful packaging bags on the shelves, the LED lights on the ceiling, and the computer screen behind the cashier still flickering—all of this brought a hint of confusion to her lifeless eyes for the first time.

She ignored the stunned Lin Mo and paced around the store, her steps unsteady and silent.

Her empty eyes were fixed on the protein powder with muscular men's images printed on it and the strawberry-flavored candies with their sweet aroma on the shelf. Finally, her gaze fell on Lin Mo.

It was the look in the eyes of a wolf that hadn't eaten for three days and three nights seeing a little lamb—a look filled with undisguised longing.

"Gurgle..."

A barely audible sound came from her abdomen, seemingly a sign of hunger.

She slowly raised the broken sword in her hand, the tip pointing directly at Lin Mo, and a chilling killing intent instantly locked onto his brow.

"Ah... I'm so angry... I can't... get up... ya..."

A few words escaped her pale lips in broken sentences, the sound like two pieces of sandpaper rubbing together, sending chills down one's spine.

Lin Mo was taken aback. What?

He was just about to ask, "What gibberish are you speaking, lady?" when Zero in his mind issued a warning.

【warn!

A cross-dimensional language barrier has been detected. Do you wish to consume 1 point of Multiverse Points to unlock the 'Multiverse Translation Function'?

"Deduct it! Deduct it right now!"

Lin Mo just wants to survive now; he'd accept anything, even 10 points, let alone 1.

[Ding! Points -1, translation function activated.]

In an instant, the hoarse voice of the female knight-errant's spirit became clear and fluent in Lin Mo's ears, carrying an ancient charm.

"May I ask if this is a celestial abode? I am Chen Ajiao, a descendant of a great Han general, but I was murdered by a villain and my soul has been trapped in the Golden Tomb for a hundred years. Now that I have broken free, my soul is on the verge of dissipation and I urgently need a elixir to strengthen my foundation, replenish my vital energy, and prolong my life! I beg the celestial master for mercy!"

Lin Mo was stunned.

Chen Ajiao?

Empress Chen, whom Emperor Wu of Han "kept in a golden house"?

No, she said she came from a military family... Who cares who she is, the point is, she thinks she's some kind of deity?

You want more elixirs?

Lin "Immortal" Mo looked down at the 9.9 yuan (including shipping) T-shirt he was wearing on Pinduoduo, then glanced at the pink fly swatter on the cashier's counter, and fell into deep thought.

Isn't this misunderstanding a bit too far-fetched?

But then I thought, in this desolate wilderness (from the perspective of the underworld), a brightly lit 24-hour supermarket suddenly appears. For an ancient wronged soul, wouldn't that be a celestial abode?

An opportunity!

Lin Mo's mind instantly became active.

Isn't the beginner's task just to earn 10 points?

Isn't this a "big customer" delivered right to our door?

He cleared his throat, trying to make his expression appear inscrutable, and, mimicking the sage-like old immortals on television, slowly began to speak:

"So it is Lady Chen. I observe that your yin energy is stagnant and your soul is weak. You are indeed on the verge of exhaustion."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ajiao's eyes lit up with hope, and she said urgently:

"Your Excellency's discerning eyes are truly remarkable! This humble woman is willing to give everything in exchange for a single elixir!"

"Um……"

Lin Mo pretended to ponder, his eyes quickly scanning the shelves.

Elixir?

Where is he going to get her the elixir?

How about Maltesers?

Just then, the system's voice sounded again...
