The night the supernatural began to revive across the world, a Door-Knocking Ghost cornered me in my dorm room. Suddenly, my left wrist burned like it was on fire:
“Ding! The Supreme Underworld Black Card has been activated. You have 9,999 trillion netherworld notes to spend.”
While others were fighting tooth and nail over a single talisman, I casually splurged thirty million netherworld notes on three Soul-Suppressing Talismans and blasted the Door-Knocking Ghost into paper ash.
A haunted bus tried to drag me into the underworld? Sorry, the ghost driver I hired for a million netherworld notes ran it over and turned it into a pool of blood.
The base leader mocked me for being a broke student? Heh. The moment I flung out a Yin Soldier Talisman, the entire safe house was under my control!
While they fight over supplies, I stockpile Yin Soldiers. While they struggle to survive, I hire Granny Meng.
When others are still kneeling for a single ration biscuit, I’ve already spent trillions of netherworld notes to buy a fragment of the Bridge of Helplessness, and opened an underworld branch in the mortal world right in front of the Ghost King.
“Warning! Your black card balance is less than 9,999 trillion.”
Lin Chen grinned around his cigarette. “No problem. I’ll sell the World Tree’s shadow. That should cover the debt.”
“An apocalypse tycoon” sounds too vulgar? Then let’s see if my netherworld notes can smash their way through hell!
