【Demon Card·Arrogance】
The second ability activated.
A god-like perspective overlooked this space.
His gaze continuously penetrated the mountain of gold coins.
Ye Qiyan saw it.
At the very center.
A rust-green treasure chest lay quietly there.
"So there really is something. Were the gold coins on the outside just used to hide this chest? Thinking others couldn't possibly take all the gold coins away?"
"A nice idea."
His perspective returned.
He summoned the Processing Station and issued an order.
The Raven demon habitually pulled out the burlap sack it had hidden under its feathers and began placing the gold coins onto the Processing Station for recycling.
The gold coins' grade wasn't high; a large pile placed on the Processing Station would quickly transform into clean, curse-free gold bars.
The Giant Sting Bees would then carry these gold bars back to the Train, where Lisette, waiting there, would place them into the Storage Unit.
As for the curse on these gold coins, it was ineffective against the Raven demon anyway.
Time: 【12:05:41】
After a period of collection.
The middle of the gold coin mountain was completely opened up.
That chest buried at the very bottom finally saw the light of day again.
"Bring it up and let's take a look."
The Raven demon retrieved the treasure chest.
It was exactly as he had seen through Arrogance.
The chest itself was very ordinary, even somewhat shabby.
The rust-green body looked as if it had been soaked in green algae.
【Unknown Treasure Chest】
【What is hidden inside?】
This was all the content the System appraised.
"Unknown, huh? We'll know once we open it."
He put on the Plague Doctor Mask and activated the Wandering Star Holy Sigil.
Although the System had rated this station as having no danger, being careful wasn't a mistake.
The Raven demon grabbed the lid of the chest and flipped it open.
Creak—
The moment the chest opened.
A mass of rust-green light and shadow instantly pounced towards Ye Qiyan's direction.
Evil Presence? A Curse? Or something else?
Forget it, it doesn't matter.
Because the moment this light and shadow appeared, the Pure Cleansing Stone worn around Ye Qiyan's neck emitted a dazzling radiance.
"Ahhh!!"
Accompanied by a piercing screech.
That mass of shadow vanished into thin ash.
"What was that?"
【Ding ding—】
While Ye Qiyan was still puzzled, the System's voice already rang in his ears.
【Hidden Quest Completed: Jeff's Curse】
【Quest Objective: Eliminate the greedy grievance entity of Pirate King Jeff】
【Quest Reward: Curse-type Enhancement Gem ×1】
【Jeff sensed the aura of a Demon. It, which should have appeared to devour those who coveted its treasure, chose to hide instead. Unfortunately, you found it and eliminated it.】
"A grievance entity? That thing just now?"
Looking at the content on the light screen, Ye Qiyan glanced again at the opened chest.
"So that Pirate King called Jeff, after he died, just hid in there waiting for someone to come take his treasure? Worthy of being a Pirate King, truly treacherous enough."
The System's judgment was correct.
Ye Qiyan, possessing the Pure Cleansing Stone, truly faced no danger at this station.
Even that great sea curse on the gold coins, when you got down to it, could completely be considered a type of Evil Presence.
Even if, taking a step back ten thousand times, the Pure Cleansing Stone couldn't resist that curse, it wasn't as if Ye Qiyan lacked curse-type items.
If the Train Conductor who came to this station searching for treasure wasn't Ye Qiyan but someone else...
Relying on the curse, the method of hiding under the treasure to ambush others, and the fact that as a grievance entity it wasn't that easy to eliminate, the rating for this station would probably be "Dangerous!"
Unfortunately, it encountered Ye Qiyan, who possessed a Demon and the Pure Cleansing Stone.
All of Jeff's methods were meaningless to him.
As Jeff's grievance entity disappeared, something within the rust-green chest was revealed.
"What's this?"
A grayish-white gem.
It emitted an aura that made one somewhat disgusted.
Rot?
Or perhaps...
Resentment.
【Grievance Heart】
【After use, changes the user's race to Grievance Entity.】
【After use, obtain Modules: Non-Corporeal, Evil Presence, Etherealization, Curse, Resentment Power, Levitation, Soul Devour, Fear of Light......】
【Using this race transformation item allows selection of two Modules from the original race to inherit】
【Note: After transformation, other race transformation methods can be used to continue changing race, but cannot return to the original race】
【After transformation, obtain the irremovable Title: Race Traitor】
【Race Traitor: Original race's innate favorability towards the transformed individual is halved】
A race transformation item, long time no see.
The last one was still the armor on that lich person, Altos.
"Looks quite a bit more powerful than the previous vampires and lich person. But, transform into a grievance entity? Isn't that equivalent to dying?"
"However, the Modules do look more powerful than those previous two. Should be able to sell for a good price."
"Heh, didn't expect an unexpected harvest. Worthy of being a Pirate King's treasure, even the grievance entity itself can drop something good."
Putting away this heart, Ye Qiyan didn't linger here any longer.
He returned to the Train and lay back down on the sun lounger.
He took out that black market Invitation Card and swept it through the air.
【"Welcome, esteemed member."】
【"What would you like to sell today?"】
The Black Market Customer Service issued a pleasant voice.
"Take a look at this."
Ye Qiyan held the Grievance Heart in his hand.
The black market's detection function performed a scan.
【"Please wait a moment."】
At the same time.
Level 12 World, Trade Star.
Top floor of the tallest building on this world.
Inside the independent workspace of the Black Market Customer Service staff.
A customer service girl named Ailei looked at the transaction records related to this account before her, falling into confusion.
"Really strange... How long has it been? The transaction range for this account is a bit too large, isn't it? At first, it was just trading Level 6 items, then it kept rising. Recently, we even had to use time-stream synchronized Modules to have a conversation..."
"Sister Zhu Xingshu said before that this invitation card was given to a newbie Train Conductor, right? Really, fooling me again. With this growth range, how could it possibly be a newbie... She asked me for the black market invitation card and still wouldn't tell the truth, hmph."
Ailei let out a light hum and searched for the price of grievance entity transformation items.
Right at this moment, a knocking sound suddenly came from outside the door.
"Who is it? Don't you know I'm working?"
She frowned and pressed a button beside her.
The office door opened.
A man wearing a top hat and a fitted suit stood there with a smiling face.
"Mr. Christine? Why have you come? It's work hours, but you've come just in time. How many Train Coins should we quote for the grievance entity race transformation item?"
"Huh? What's that sword in your hand?"
Christine.
The creator of the black market.
In his hand, he was holding a longsword named "Deceitful Play," which emitted an ominous purple aura.
"Hehe~ This sword has been sold to the black market nine times in a row now~ I want to find the original trader of this sword. His information should be right here with you."
