Ah Fei's neck lolled to the side, and he collapsed to the ground, motionless.
At this moment, the fishman cursed spirit held the steel fork in his hand up to his eyes and examined it carefully for a long time, but there wasn't even a drop of blood. He was immediately filled with a black-faced question mark.
So...did I insert it or not?
Just as the fishman's cursed spirit was confused, Afei suddenly came back to life and scrambled away a long distance.
Looking at the ground beneath him, it was riddled with holes, all the result of the fishman's efforts.
"Damn you, cunning humans!"
The merman spirit realized it had been tricked and was so angry that its body turned red.
However, the next moment, a bloody hole appeared in his chest, and his heart was pierced through.
It turns out that while Tobi was stalling for time, Hidan had already obtained the bloodstained kunai and prepared the ritual.
puff!
The black spear pierced through his body once again. Hidan felt the pleasure that came from the pain, and a twisted, morbid smile appeared on his face.
"Hahahahaha..."
"Die! Die ...
Every time Hidan yelled "Die!", he would stab himself in a vital spot with his spear.
Before the merman cursed spirit even knew what had happened, it collapsed to the ground, riddled with holes in its body.
Then a golden snake descended from the sky and bit the fishman's neck, injecting a petrification curse!
The grayish-white color spread rapidly.
Before he died, the merman spirit seemed to reach for the crown on his head, but before he could touch it, his entire body turned to stone and became a statue.
[Chapter 125. Recycling and Replacement! (Bonus chapter for Schrödinger's cat, dog, and bird!)]
Bang!
Splash...
With a single kick, he shattered the stone-turned merman spirit, and in a short moment, all the attacking monsters were wiped out.
[Exorcise the Superior Cursed Spirit - Ugly Fish, gain 2000 Cursed Soul Points]
Shinji was quite surprised; he hadn't expected that the ugly fish-man in the end would actually be a top-tier cursed spirit.
This was the first time he had ever seen such a weak special-grade cursed spirit.
It's worth noting that the bald, four-eyed cursed spirit he and Hidan first encountered was worth 5,000 cursed spirit points, and because they triggered a bond quest, they received an extra reward.
But upon closer examination, it seems quite reasonable.
Because the bald, four-eyed cursed spirit already possesses a pseudo-domain of special-grade cursed spirit, it is indeed much stronger than the fishman from before.
What Shinji didn't know was that the fish-man spirit they had just killed had only recently been promoted to a special-grade spirit, and because he had been stunned at the beginning, he naturally looked very weak.
However, if given more time to grow, the Fishman Cursed Spirit might not be weaker than the Bald Four-Eyed Cursed Spirit.
Going further, it is even possible to come into contact with or even master the field.
Moreover, it grows step by step from a low-level cursed spirit to a special-level cursed spirit.
Currently, only a place like the Land of Water, with its unique advantages, can cultivate such talents.
"Shinji-senpai, help! Hidan-senpai has had another attack!"
Shinji turned his head and saw that Hidan was chasing Tobi around again.
"It's just asking you to draw blood, and you can't even do this simple thing right?! Do you know how badly you fell and almost ruined everything!"
"But...didn't we succeed in the end? Why should we get scolded even after we succeeded?"
"Of course, it's to teach you a lesson. If you dare to throw away the blood you've collected next time, I'll throw you into the ocean to feed the sharks."
"Whoa! Hidan-senpai is so scary. He's clearly responsible, but he's trying to push it onto me."
"You dare talk back? You bastard, stop right there!"
"Heh, only a fool wouldn't run away."
Since the Orochimaru incident, Shinji and his friends have been eliminating cursed spirits everywhere.
With more battles, it's no longer realistic for Afei to completely hide his strength.
Moreover, Kamui's ability to become intangible has been demonstrated too many times. Not only Shinji, but even Hidan has noticed the problem.
So Tobi revealed a part of his ability, explaining the effects of Kamui's Hollowfication to Shinji and Hidan in a mix of truth and illusion.
Shinji already knew what was going on, so apart from feigning surprise, he was actually completely unmoved.
But Hidan's eyes suddenly lit up as he came up with a brilliant plan.
Simply put, Afei would teleport first to launch a sneak attack and be responsible for drawing blood.
Then hand it over to Hidan, who uses the Death Possession Blood to instantly kill the target.
This idea is very novel, and upon closer examination, it has a high success rate!
As long as Afei can get the first hit and draw blood, no matter how strong the target is, they're basically a dead man.
Hidan doesn't need to rack his brains to find ways to engage in close combat; having Tobi as a tool is enough.
Although Shinji didn't know how Hidan came up with this strange combination, he was prepared to get involved.
This combination technique is perfect for dealing with humans, but it might fail when used against cursed spirits.
However, if you add the petrification curse of the snakeskin sword to this, you will be absolutely certain of success!
Tobi draws blood, Hidan injures himself, and Shinji finishes him off – it's perfect!
"My lord, I am the village chief of this village. Thank you for your willingness to lend a helping hand. Otherwise, we would all be doomed."
The old man who suddenly appeared interrupted Shinji's thoughts, but it didn't matter, since he had already obtained the cursed soul points.
With today's surge, plus the two thousand from earlier, Shinji's Cursed Soul Value has now reached 26890 points, getting closer and closer to the 30,000 mark.
"Let's leave it at that for now. Send someone to deal with all these bodies as soon as possible."
The old man responded repeatedly and immediately directed people to separate the cursed spirits from the human corpses.
The corpses of cursed spirits can be sold for money, and the five great nations and many other forces are secretly acquiring them.
Human corpses, of course, should be buried in the earth for peace.
The village, which had narrowly escaped death, was immediately filled with sorrow and sobbing.
A moment later, the old man hurriedly came over, holding a crown.
"Sir, this was found inside the monster that turned into a pile of stones. We dare not make the decision ourselves; we will follow your orders."
Shinji looked at it and realized that it was the crown worn by the fish-man cursed spirit.
They actually shipped it?
Can he say that he hadn't had any hope at all?
Upon receiving the gleaming crown, the system immediately provided a notification.
Cursed Item - [Crown of Elegance]
Source: Ugly Fish Prince's identity certificate.
Ability: Randomly selects a temperament at midnight each day; the effect takes effect after equipping the item.
Side effect: As the wearing time increases, the user will become more and more narcissistic.
P.S.: Don't look down, or your crown will go "giao"!
. . . . . . .
What the hell is this garbage?!
Shinji was speechless. He felt this thing was even less useful than "Sadako's videotape," and the side effects were terrible.
Just when he thought this thing was only good for gathering dust in the warehouse, the system notification sounded again.
[The system has detected that you currently possess five cursed items. The recycling and replacement functions are now enabled.]
Recycling vs. Replacement?
Shinji was startled and quickly began to check the system's new capabilities.
The 【Recycle】 function allows him to choose to sell unwanted 【Cursed Items】to the system in exchange for Cursed Soul Points.
【Exchange】 means that he can exchange three 【Cursed Items】 for one random Cursed Item.
Shinji immediately took stock of the five [cursed items] he possessed: [Perfect Perfume], [Greedy Eyeball], [Mummy's Bandage], [Sadako's Videotape], and the newly acquired [Elegant Crown].
First, the Greedy Eyeball and the Mummy's Bandage must be kept. These two cursed items are very useful and have helped him a lot.
The [Sadako's Videotape] and [Elegant Crown] are rather useless; you can sell them.
As for 'Little Black'...
It's somewhat useful, but not that useful.
After some deliberation, Shinji decided to sell the "Sadako's Videotape" and the "Elegant Crown" first.
He doesn't lack [cursed items], he just lacks cursed soul points.
[Would you like to sell 'Sadako's videotape'? Price: 1000 Cursed Soul Points]
[Sell the 'Royal Crown of Elegance'? Price: 2000 Spell Soul Points]
This trash crown is actually twice as expensive as 'Sadako's videotape'?
That's incredible!
Damn it, I sold it!
Shinji gritted his teeth and sold it for three thousand yen.
Upon closer inspection, it's 110 points away from 30,000. Time to blanch!
No problem, Shinji decided to do two 10-pulls first, and if he got any useless cursed items, he could sell them.
