mtl008 Chapter 254 The Disappearing Ghost King
Chapter 254 The Disappearing Ghost King
With the Shanshui Courtyard matter resolved, Chen Mu gathered billions of ghost coins in his hands.
Chen Mu counted the income and expenses of Wangjiang City. He found that since he paid such a high salary to his employees, it stands to reason that Chen Mu should be losing money.
But in fact, in this month, Wangjiang City actually brought Chen Mu an income of up to one billion Ming coins.
Including the income from the sale of the landscape courtyard, there are a total of 2.5 billion ghost coins!
In total, in one month, Wangjiang City brought a total of 3.5 billion in revenue to Chen Mu!
On average, it’s as high as 100 million a day.
In this weird apocalypse, this is an extremely terrifying number.
You know, the cash flow of many Gui Wang is only more than 100 million.
It's equivalent to Chen Mu earning as much cash as a Gui King in one day.
At this rate, Chen Mu will be able to earn trillions in just thirty years!
Chen Mu knew that this speed was unsustainable.
Because it is the early stage of the weird apocalypse, the underworld coins have not been consumed in large quantities, and the services in Wangjiang City are unique, so Chen Mu can earn such income.
"The King of Creatures needs to burn Hades Coins, fighting requires consumption of Hades Coins, and creating pure Creepy Energy requires consumption of Hades Coins. So much is being consumed, but where do the Hades Coins come from?"
Chen Mu couldn't help but start to worry about this issue.
From the current point of view, the ultimate source of the Hades Coin is pure evil energy!
As for the pure evil energy to create ghost coins, it seems that there is only one way now——
A trillion-dollar money printing machine with a king-level prop!
It's a pity that Chen Mu still has no clue how to obtain the pure evil spirit and how to restore the trillion-dollar money printing machine.
"Forget it, at least the current Ming coins are enough. As long as I make a little more, I can hold on until the breakthrough."
Chen Mu put down his calculations, he sank into his heart, and a map appeared in front of his eyes.
Golden light spots!
The brightest place on the entire map now is Wangjiang City.
Because in Wangjiang City, several King-level props have been gathered.
The remaining four King-level props are distributed in various corners of the map, and one of them is still in the deep sea!
However, the remaining King-level props were no longer golden spots of light, but turned into gray-black spots of light.
And what's a little different is that Chen Mu can see the place name where the golden light spot was before. But the location of those black light spots looked like a map covered in fog in the game, and Chen Mu couldn't actually see the specific place names.
Not only that, Chen Mu tried hard to recall, but he was surprised to find that even if he searched the memories of his previous life, he could not find relevant clues.
Yes, even in Chen Mu's previous life, he had never been to these places!
I haven't even heard any relevant information.
"Interesting, really interesting." Chen Mu murmured to himself. Did he really never go there, or did he go there but his memory was concealed?
In any case, these black light spots are indeed a bit evil.
Chen Mu is not afraid of evil spirits. The more evil a place is, the more likely it is that good things will appear.
Just as Chen Mu was observing the black light spot, suddenly, a black light spot moved abnormally.
I saw this black light spot starting to spread to the surroundings, but it was not the kind of spread in sheets, but like black threads, spreading towards the surroundings.
These black threads are getting longer and longer, and extend into many branches.
These branches are like black blood vessels, spreading across the map.
Suddenly, Chen Mu was surprised to find that the black blood vessels had spread to Wangjiang City!
Yes, there was a black blood vessel that passed by one side of Wangjiang City.
Not only that, a small black spot actually appeared on the outskirts of Wangjiang City.
The location of this little black dot suddenly felt familiar to Chen Mu.
"This seems to be... the Netherworld Airport in Wangjiang City?"
Yes, in Wangjiang City, there is another territory belonging to the King of Gui.
This is the territory of the Nether King!
Because the Nether King is very sensible, he gave Chen Mu a private sports car and a plane.
So Chen Mu reciprocated and allowed the Nether King to retain an airport in Wangjiang City.
Chen Mu is not the kind of person who only takes things without spitting them out. Chen Mu still understands the principle of equal exchange.
"What happened to the King of Netherworld's airport?"
Chen Mu frowned slightly.
The property of the Nether King is also amazing in the whole weird apocalypse.
Netherworld Taxi, Netherworld Train, Netherworld Plane, Netherworld Highway...
Almost everything related to travel has been taken care of by the King of Netherworld.
Therefore, the King of Netherworld is also one of the rare rich kings in the strange apocalypse.
Chen Mu was still planning to trick him into recommending him to buy a villa or something, so that he could give himself a lot of gold coins.
As a result, the gold coins haven’t started to explode yet, so why is there something wrong with the industry?
Chen Mu looked at the map carefully, and he finally found the clue!
The black blood vessels on the map are actually the property of the Nether King!
The "blood vessels" are actually the railways, highways, and routes of Netherworld Company.
Now on the map, everything has turned black!
what does this mean?
What big thing happened to the Nether King's property?
Before Chen Mu could think clearly, Chen Mu suddenly noticed a strange movement coming from his space ring.
Chen Mu withdrew his consciousness from the bottom of his heart and looked at his ring.
In the ring, a piece of the King's Token was shaking rapidly.
Chen Mu took out the token and took a closer look at it.
It’s actually the token of the Nether King!
When the King of Netherworld gave him a sports car and airplane, he also gave him a Token of the King of Ghosts.
As long as he crushes the King's Token, the King of Netherworld can feel Chen Mu's call.
But so far, Chen Mu has not used it.
The Token of the King of Creatures shook violently in Chen Mu's hand. Suddenly, I heard a click——
The Token of the King of Netherworld is broken!
Seeing this situation, Chen Muwei narrowed his eyes, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He didn't take the initiative to crush it, but the King's Token was broken by himself.
This shows that the King of Netherworld has encountered something unexpected!
Could it be that the King of Netherworld is dead?
A mid-level Guile King doesn't just disappear.
If a trickster is secretly killed, it can be done quietly and quietly.
But at the stage of King Gui, it is impossible to kill King Gui silently!
It will definitely cause a big stir!
Just like not long ago, Chen Mu summoned dozens of deceitful kings and deceitful generals to jointly destroy the King of Lost Joy. This incident has already caused an uproar in the strange apocalypse.
This is why Wangjiang City suddenly became so popular. Because everyone has seen the appeal of Boss Chen!
Chen Mu was not sure about the specific strength of the King of the Underworld. After all, until now, Chen Mu had never seen the King of the Underworld with his own eyes.
However, it is obvious that the strength of the King of the Underworld must be extremely high, at least not lower than that of an intermediate Ghost King!
How could such a strange and powerful person, who controls the strange scenes of the world (roads, railways, and air routes), die suddenly and silently?
If that were true, then Chen Mu would be afraid. This meant that there was a stronger person out there, and in the eyes of that person, the Ghost King was just as vulnerable as the Ghost people!
"No, this is absolutely impossible. Even if there is a stronger power, it shouldn't be so outrageous." Chen Mu pondered, "Since the King of the Underworld is very likely not to die suddenly, it means that he has lost contact with the strange end of the world!"
Yes, the Ghost King’s token was broken, and there was another possibility—the Ghost King suddenly lost contact.
"Whichever possibility it is, it means that a more serious danger... has emerged."
Chen Mu looked out the window and couldn't help muttering to himself.
Overnight, a ghost king suddenly lost contact, and the roads, railways and air routes that crisscrossed the strange apocalyptic world all turned into an unknown black.
Chen Mu carefully sorted out the remaining four strange scenes, and they were all small black dots.
Then, when he was checking the map, one of the black spots spread outward, turning all of the Nether King's assets black. The Nether King also lost contact at this time.
What is the connection?
Why did it suddenly become like this?
All the troubles were swirling in Chen Mu's mind.
Chen Mu knew that the best way to answer all of this was to go to the source of it all—
That mysterious black spot, the unknown weird scene!
Of course, Chen Mu is not a reckless man. He would not just rush to the black spot in a fit of rage.
That's simply courting death!
Therefore, Chen Mu wanted to investigate first, at least to get some useful clues.
First and foremost,
What does it mean when it turns black?
Thinking of this, Chen Mu looked at the map again.
There is a black dot in Wangjiang City, which is the airport of the King of the Netherworld. Around Wangjiang City, there is a black line, which is the flight route of the Netherworld Company.
Chen Mu usually takes that route when he travels.
Chen Mu picked up the phone (communication in Wangjiang City had been restored) and called his driver.
Now, Chen Mu drives a sports car himself, and his former driver has transformed into the captain of Chen Mu's private jet.
Unless something unexpected happens, the driver should be on standby on the plane 24 hours a day.
Even if Chen Mu didn't ask, as one of Chen Mu's veterans, the driver had already been grateful to Chen Mu. As the saying goes, I'm not afraid of my boss using me to death, I'm just afraid of my boss not using me.
The driver has blatantly ignored the 8-hour workday and stayed on the plane every day.
Make the call.
"Hello? I'm Chen Mu."
"Boss, are you looking for me?" The driver's voice on the other end of the phone was very calm, without any tension or fear.
"Nothing unexpected happened at the airport?"
Chen Mu asked with some confusion, because on the map, the airport had clearly turned into a black dot.
"Boss, everything is fine. It's just... there are some dark clouds in the sky."
The driver's voice was still normal and it seemed that nothing had happened.
"There are dark clouds in the sky..." Chen Mu thought for a moment and gave the driver an order:
"Start the plane immediately and fly around Wangjiang City a few times according to our usual route."
Chen Mu did this to test whether there would be any abnormalities when the plane flew over those black routes.
Chen Mu didn't believe that if the map turned black, it would have no effect at all in reality?
"Okay, boss." The driver was a little confused, but as one of Chen Mu's most loyal subordinates, the driver still faithfully followed Chen Mu's orders.
at this time.
Wangjiang Municipal Airport.
The driver started the plane according to the routine procedure.
As the plane landed on the runway, suddenly, a crackling sound of electricity was heard in the cockpit.
"What is this sound?"
The driver was a little confused. After all, he had always kept the microphone off and had never turned on the radio.
Moreover, it was the end of the weird world, and no one used radios anymore. The airport control tower was deserted. Of course, there were no weird employees either.
In the entire city of Wangjiang, there was only one plane belonging to Chen Mu. The airport also only had Chen Mu's private plane, so the control tower had never had any strange staff.
"Wangjiang City... takeoff... fee... one thousand ghost coins... please... please... pay as soon as possible..."
The voice of the control tower could be heard from the cabin one after another.
The driver was totally confused. He was Boss Chen's driver, and this was in Wangjiang City. How dare he take Boss Chen's money?
"Boss Chen." The driver immediately contacted Chen Mu. "I heard a voice calling me, asking me to take off from Wangjiang City and pay one thousand ghost coins as soon as possible."
When Chen Mu heard this, he became furious.
Let me pay?
OMG!
How dare you ask me to pay?
Boss Chen reflected on it. Ever since his rebirth, he has always been the one taking advantage of others. When will it be Boss Chen's turn to pay others?
"No! Keep taking off. Ignore the voice on the radio." Chen Mu said, "I want to see what's going on."
The main reason why Chen Mu is so confident is that his plane is protected by an invincible state.
As long as the plane takes off, it will be invincible and no matter what the situation, no one can harm your private plane.
Under Chen Mu's command, the driver controlled the private plane and took off along the runway.
The sky was covered with dark clouds.
Thanks to the bonus of strange power, Chen Mu's plane can take off normally even in such cloudy, thundering and lightning weather.
However, just as the plane reached the planned route, the driver suddenly discovered that a red alarm suddenly lit up in the cabin.
Seeing this, the driver showed a look of surprise on his face.
Because a red alarm lit up in the plane, it meant that the private plane was under attack.
And it was a deadly attack!
If it only happened once, the driver wouldn't be so surprised.
The key problem is that the red alarm in the cabin has been flashing non-stop!
This means that private jets are under continuous and deadly attacks!
This usually happens when a situation occurs:
The rules were broken!
Yes, only when you break the rules will you be subjected to fatal attacks!
Never die.
As long as the person who breaks the rules doesn't die, the punishment of the rules will not stop.
Of course, if you leave the scope of the rules, the punishment of the rules will also end. As long as the private plane leaves the black route, this deadly attack will stop.
The driver picked up the phone and said to Chen Mu:
"Boss, we may have...broken the rules."
