Chapter 399: 399, Ding, your little sister is online now.

After glancing at the prompt message, Lu Xun directly chose to Claim the task.

He was a little puzzled, why was the task named Guarding Lonely City?

Could it be that the Foreign Race were once again trying to ravage Frost Feather City?

This is already a deserted city, could it be that I have to transform into Zhuge Villager, climb up to the city wall and improvise a song?

Only after going through the task details, Lu Xun had a sudden realization.

“So, it’s because of the Ghost Qi.”

As mentioned before, the ghosts in Heavenly Dust are not following a one ghost per person policy.

That is to say, it wouldn’t be that when Nie Xiaoqian passes away, female ghost Nie Xiaoqian is produced.

Ghosts are combinations of everyone’s Ghost Qi, they are clusters of negative energy, a chaotic and mixed production.

Any ghost is formed by the intertwining of multiple people’s Ghost Qi.

So many people died here, among them should be quite a number from the Foreign Race, when all this Ghost Qi mixes together, let alone a ghost, it’s even possible to produce a Ghost King!

And ghosts are things that must be dealt with. These things are just a bunch of Black Sillys who know nothing but killing, and… the Experience Points reward is extremely high!

Of course, thanks to the setting in Heavenly Dust, it made it easier for Lu Xun to kill a ghost.

If the ghosts were really transformed from human souls, then this place would have a lot of wronged souls. It is simply unbearable.

But since they are clusters of negative energy, there is no big problem.

—— just get rid of the dirty things, and let the people walk out of this place cleanly.

It’s just not known… how many ghosts there could be?

“The quantity of ghosts is secondary, as long as the Sword Sheath takes action, thousands of Sword Qi could gush out like a fountain, they can directly give them a heart chilling effect, making them delighted!”

“The key question is whether there will be a Ghost King!”

The Ghost King is equivalent to the great cultivator among human cultivators, generally made up from the Ghost Qi gathered after the cultivator’s death.

Ghost Kings above the sixth realm are very rare, and are considered a rare species. Most Ghost Kings have the strength of the fifth realm, ranging from level 50 to 60.

If The Sword Qi is Near is around, even if a Ghost King over level 60 comes, there will not be any safety issues.

But the point is… he wants to kill it himself, he wants to earn Experience Points!

The ghosts killed by The Sword Qi is Near along the way, Lu Xun didn’t get any Experience Points from it.

“Do it yourself and you’ll have enough to eat and wear.” He remembered this teaching.

Moreover, the energy bar of The Sword Qi is Near is unrecoverable. If it can be avoided, it’s better not to use it.

Just think of it as nuclear weapons. Unless a powerful Foreign Race is encountered, we assure you, we will not use The Sword Qi is Near first!

“Or….should I gather the players here?” Lu Xun had an idea.

He was afraid that the ghosts here were too strong, and it would be hard to solve them without using The Sword Qi is Near.

In that case, it’s better to gather a bunch of stupid players here.

If a Ghost King came, he would focus on taking Ye Sui’an to deal with the Ghost King, and let the players have a taste of the lesser monsters.

And if no Ghost King appears, just a bunch of lower rank ghosts, Lu Xun wouldn’t lose out either.

When it came to snatching monsters, players would not be able to beat him.

With this thought in mind, Lu Xun followed Ye Sui’an into the city, looking to see if there were any players in the ruins of this city.

Zhao Qiansun was a Sword Cultivator player, apprenticed to the Kirin Sword Sect of the West State, which was considered a medium-sized sect.

Because of some trivial matters at home recently, he hadn’t logged onto Heavenly Dust for a few days, perfectly missing the first invasion of the Foreign Race army.

But when he logged on today, he was stunned!

“Where is Frost Feather City? Where is such a big Frost Feather City?”

Zhao Qiansun’s mouth was wide open, as he looked at the ruins around him, he was so shocked that his legs couldn’t close.

“What the hell! The house I just bought with money!” Zhao Qiansun groaned.

In the 22nd century, the housing problem still bothered a lot of young people, which led many players to develop a strange mindset——buying houses in the game.

Zhao Qiansun bought a small house in Frost Feather City, when he was free, he would come here and live for a few days, pretending to be part of the homeowner class.

But the sight of the ruins constantly reminded him——your house has collapsed.

“Foreign Race, I hate you!” Zhao Qiansun roared in his heart.

This gave him the feeling of being forcibly evacuated, it was particularly uncomfortable.

Just then, he suddenly heard a faint voice: “Hmm? Is there anyone here?”

Zhao Qiansun looked around, but he only heard the voice and couldn’t see anyone.
