Curse Reply: After choosing Nawa, the cursed spirit cursed me for being cruel.

Step on that wriggling mass of mucus that could barely be called a "head".

puff.

The remaining body of the cursed spirit convulsed violently a few times, turning into a large pool of black filth that quickly evaporated and disappeared. Even the stench was largely purified by the high temperature, leaving only a faint burnt smell.

The alley quieted down, leaving only the sound of rain and the faint hum of energy flowing between the gaps in the armor.

Duanmu Yan stood still, looking at the scorch marks at his feet being washed away by the rain, then raised his hand to look at his deep red gauntlets. The rainwater washed away the stains on the armor, making a continuous hissing sound.

"The world of Jujutsu Kaisen...?"

From this day forward, I will live in this damned world of cursed spirits.

"Set yourself a goal: kill these cursed spirits."

Chapter 3 Molten Spiral Fist (Revised)

[Congratulations, host, on achieving your first kill. System panel data is now accessible.]

[Congratulations, host, for defeating a level 2 cursed spirit. You have earned 100 points and received the first kill gift pack.]

Before him, the familiar light blue semi-transparent screen unfolded once more, hovering between the rain and him.

[Host Panel]

Name: Duanmu Yan

Age: 16

Combat strength: Level 1

Spirit: Huai Special Grade

Spell Power: Level 1

Equipment slot: Nava Armor (Compatibility 50%)

Inventory: First Kill Gift Pack x1

Current points: 100

Overall assessment: Normally weak, but after fusion, its combat power is roughly equivalent to a level one sorcerer. It has extremely strong explosive power and growth potential, and has a very high affinity with the fire element.

Duanmu Yan quickly scanned this information.

It can only be said that he is indeed General Duanmu. He has the strength of level one as soon as he got the template.

These combat ranks should be ordered according to the ranks in the Jujutsu Kaisen world.

Level 3, Level 2, Level 1, Quasi-Special Grade, and the highest Special Grade.

He could understand that attack power and spell power were at the first level, but what about mental power, which was at the quasi-special level?

His gaze lingered on those three words for a moment.

Is it because of the time traveler?

In the equipment slot, the Nava Armor is prominently listed, followed by a "Compatibility 50%" label.

Only half... He clenched his fist, feeling the power emanating from the armor.

"System. What is compatibility?"

The system responded immediately.

[Compatibility reflects the depth of resonance between the host and the armor's power, affecting the upper limit of power exertion and skill unlocking.]

[With a 33% compatibility rate, the first-tier ultimate skill can be used; with a 66% compatibility rate, the second-tier ultimate skill can be unlocked; with a 99% compatibility rate, the third-tier ultimate skill can be unlocked!]

With 100% compatibility and complete resonance, the ultimate special move and all the armor's potential can be unlocked.

[Compatibility can be improved through combat!]

50%... right in the middle between the first and second order.

"I see. There's another gift package. Let's open it," he muttered to himself.

In the inventory, the simple icon flashed briefly before disappearing.

[Obtained: Cursed Spirit Detector (Portable)]

[Description: Can detect the presence and approximate location of cursed spirits within a 500-meter radius centered on the host. The higher the intensity, the more obvious the signal.]

Note: This detection only shows the location and intensity trend; it cannot identify the specific type or capability.

A metal device resembling an old-fashioned pocket watch, but with a dial resembling a simple radar screen, appeared out of thin air in his empty left hand.

His gaze fell on the detector's simple radar screen.

Besides the green dot representing himself in the center, two striking red dots suddenly appeared at the edge of the screen, rushing straight towards the center, which was his current position, from the outer edge of the radar screen at an extremely fast speed!

The distance was rapidly closing, 400 meters, 300 meters...

Duanmu Yan's body suddenly turned towards the direction from which the red dot was attacking.

It arrived so quickly... Was it attracted by the commotion earlier? Or... was this thing already wandering around nearby?

No matter what it is, we cannot let them get away with it.

He glanced at the radar screen; the two red dots were almost identical in brightness, but weaker than the light dot representing them.

Two more level-two cursed spirits.

"just."

He muttered to himself, raised his right hand, and the red crystal on his arm guard began to pulsate rhythmically, while the surrounding rain was pushed away by an invisible heat.

"Let's try it out, the power of a first-tier ultimate attack."

He lowered his center of gravity, pulled his right fist back, and all the red crystals on his arm armor lit up with a blazing light at the same time. The energy flow between the gaps in the armor suddenly accelerated, emitting a rapid whistling sound.

The surrounding air began to distort, and the high temperature caused the falling rain to hiss and vaporize half a foot away from his fist.

The stone pavement underfoot, which was covered in water, was showing signs of drying out and changing color.

"Molten Spiral Fist!"

The fist, having been fully charged, carrying a spiral of blazing fire energy, was fiercely struck out towards the direction from which the two rapidly approaching cursed spirits were lurking in the darkness of the alleyway!

Unlike the previous Lava Fist, this time it unleashed a spiraling pillar of flame that spun forward and burned as fiercely as a lava drill bit!

It tore through the rain, illuminating the dirty alley walls. Wherever it passed, the rainwater evaporated instantly, the air crackled from the intense heat, and it plowed a scorched trail into the ground.

"Hiss—!!!"

Two overlapping shrieks suddenly erupted and then abruptly stopped.

Boom!

A muffled explosion came from the alley entrance, the flames flashed and then died down, leaving only a scorching shockwave mixed with the acrid smell of burning embers that rushed towards us. Gravel fell in a rustling sound, and there was a faint hissing sound of some kind of viscous substance being instantly vaporized.

The figure in crimson armor slowly straightened up in the steam, the light from the crystals on its arms gradually fading.

"No cursed spirit should be let go."

The two glaring red dots on the radar screen have disappeared.

[Defeat two level-two cursed spirits, gaining 200 points.]

The system notification sounded on time.

Duanmu Yan glanced at the detector screen and confirmed that there were no other red dots.

He let out a soft breath, and the scorching heat inside the armor eased slightly.

This attack consumed far more energy than the previous normal attack, but its effect was immediate.

The Molten Spiral Fist, a first-tier ultimate attack, is indeed efficient at clearing out mobs.

Duanmu Yan asked, "System, what exactly can the points be used for?"

The main uses of points are as follows:

[1. Unlock additional armor.]

[The Hurricane's Caravan Armor requires 100000 points to unlock.]

[The Crimson Thunder Armor requires 100000 points to unlock.]

[Howling Tsunami Armor, requires 100000 points to unlock.]

[Ultimate Armor: Thunder Yatalis, requires 1000000 points to unlock.]

2. Redeem a random treasure chest.

Treasure chests are divided into four tiers: Normal, Elite, Epic, and Legendary. They can contain random items from different worlds, and the content and quality of the rewards increase with the chest's tier.

[Normal Treasure Chest: 100 points.]

[Elite Chest: 1000 points.]

Epic Chest: 10000 points.

[Legendary Treasure Chest: 100000 points.]

[Defeating cursed spirits also has a chance to yield treasure chests; the stronger the enemy, the higher the probability and quality of the treasure chest.]

After listening, Duanmu Yan glanced at the pitiful 300 points on his panel and did some mental calculations.

Unlocking the armor seems a long way off, but you can exchange for treasure chests. The regular ones are affordable now, but the word "random" makes them seem unreliable.

"understood."

Let's save these points for now.

He severed communication with the system and simultaneously deactivated his transformation.

The red light faded, the armor vanished as it turned into specks of light, and the summoner disappeared. The icy rain lashed against his skin again, his soaked clothes clung to his body, and a wave of exhaustion and cold washed over him.

He needs to find a place to rest now.

He wiped the rain off his face, stuffed the curse detector into his soaking wet pocket, and then strode toward the alley entrance.

The figure quickly disappeared into the depths of the drizzling night rain.

A few kilometers away, on the empty top floor of an abandoned building.
