Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World-Chapter 308: Hidden Corpse Infant

" It's truly surprising. I didn't expect you to recognize me right away." The man was already past fifty, giving him an old and mature look.

" Haha, let's say in this business, one needs to stay alert all the time." Jia Hao smiled as he gestured for him to sit.

" Would you like to have any drinks?"

" Tea is fine." The man nodded as he sat down. " Please call me Steward Rui."

" Very well then, Uncle Rui. Please tell me, how can we help you?" Jia Hao looked at Steward Rui.

" Haha, first of all, I have to give you a heartfelt thank you. The products of Lianshan Corporation are nothing but truly miraculous."

" The Lesser Revitalization Pill is indeed miraculous." Jia Hao laughed. " Unfortunately, the manufacturing is limited. After all, material for such medicines is hard to get, right?"

" Of course, I can totally understand. After all, it would be horrifying if you can mass produce such miracle drugs." Steward Rui sipped the tea.

" Huh? Such a wonderful tea! What kind of tea is it?"

Steward Rui was stunned the moment he took a sip. He felt a refreshing sensation through his body, with a rich, earthy taste lingering on his tongue.

Jia Hao chuckled as he shook his head. " Let's say it's just one of our specialties. If Steward Rui likes, he can take some back with you."

" Haha, thank you for your offer, Young Master Jia. I will certainly not forget picking this up." Steward Rui finished his tea and set the cup aside.

" I won't beat the bushes. I wish to know if Lianshan Corporation has any other kind of medicine other than Lesser Rejuvenation Pill and Healing Spray?"

" That's an interesting question to ask, Uncle Rui." Jia Hao was mused. " I can't exactly tell you about the ongoing research in our labs, can I?"

" Unless you tell me what exactly you are looking for?"

Steward Rui was surprised as he hurriedly shook his head. " Ahh, I believe I misspoke, please forgive if it felt intruding." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

" We urgently require the help of an alchemist. Unfortunately, the situation is so urgent that we have no time to contact the noble families."

" The Lianshan Corporation has already established its reputation as a natural medicine brand. Therefore, our family can only seek help from you."

" It's not that I am not willing to help, Uncle Rui." Jia Hao smiled. " But I need to assess the situation first. So, you must need to be honest with us."

" Just to ease your doubt, I have also dealt with problems of Sun Family. Problems which are…very unusual."

Steward Rui looked at Jia Hao with a troubled expression. " The family head…he is currently bedridden."

" The thing is, doctors are unable to determine what is wrong with him." Steward Rui's expression hardened. " The condition of the Master is deteriorating rapidly. If things goes like this… I am afraid…"

He didn't finish his sentence, but Jia Hao understood immediately.

" We have asked the taoists of Wuxing Monastery to come. However, hearing some rumors about you, we would like to invite you too."

" Wait, you want us to go to the Liu Family manor?" Feng Yunshi was surprised.

" It would be great if you come, Lady Feng." Steward Rui spoke politely.

" Well, it's just a few hours of trip, right?" Jia Hao looked at Feng Yunshi.

" What do you say, Sister Feng? Want to come with me?"

" After all, you also need to take breaks sometimes."

Feng Yunshi pondered for a moment before sighing. " Well, I am not exactly busy today. So, why not?"

" Sweet. Let's go then." Jia Hao got up.

" Please, I have already readied the car." Steward Rui bowed lightly.

Sitting in the expensive Rolls Royce, Jia Hao looked at Steward Rui.

" Steward Rui, why don't you give me some more details?" Jia Hao looked at Steward Rui with a deep gaze.

" I am sure such an illness didn't come unannounced."

Steward Rui sighed as he fidgeted with his fingers. " Half a year ago, our family purchased an abandoned factory at the mountain side."

" Despite the lingering bad past, the prospects of that place were very good. If we did well, it could be turned into a very good processing plant."

" However, during the renovation, accidents started to happen more and more often."

" We invited many taoist priests and finally managed to cleanse the place. Alas, it wasn't the end."

" A week ago, Master went there to oversee the work. When he returned, he suddenly fell ill."

" And from that day, the situation has kept getting worse."

Jia Hao rubbed his chin when he heard that. " Uncle Rui, how far is the factory from Liu Family manor?"

" Half an hour of journey. Why do you ask?" Steward Rui looked at Jia Hao with a questioning look.

" How about we visit there first?" Jia Hao smiled. " I just want to have a look there."

" I believe that's possible." Steward Rui nodded as he gave instructions to the driver.

The rest of the journey remained smooth. Jia Hao and Feng Yunshi chatted about business.

" Well, I am planning to hire some fresh blood." Feng Yunshi rubbed her forehead. " The company is growing faster than I anticipated, and I can't handle everything alone."

" Tsk tsk, it's truly my fault." Jia Hao clicked his tongue playfully. " How dare I let the princess of Feng family to work so hard?"

" Hmph! Brat, are you saying I can't handle work?" Feng Yunshi snorted lightly.

" But thanks to your office work, I didn't had any chance to practice my martial arts at all."

" After all this, you'd better come with me for a spar. I am itching for a good fight."

" Haha, no worries, Sister Feng." Jia Hao nodded with a chuckle. " You got this."

After taking a rundown road, they finally arrived at the factory, which was stationed in a massive field. Behind it was a small hill, where the main water supply came.

The moment Jia Hao arrived there, he could already sense the presence of darkness.

" Is it just me, or the wind here a bit chilly?" Feng Yunshi muttered as she rubbed her shoulders.

" Damn, I kinda don't like this place."

" Well, your instinct might be spot on." Jia Hao commented as he looked at the place with his Divine Sage's Eyes.

The entire factory was dyed with a pale crimson dome, making it look eerie. Jia Hao could feel a whiff of rotting corpses and blood as he walked forward.

' As I suspected, this is really connected to the special event.'

In the game Urban Fantasy, there were various sudden event encounters, which brought unexpected dangers and rewards.

The current place was also one among them, named as Corspe Terror Factory.

' But judging from its look, it looks like the dungeon hasn't materialized fully.' Jia Hao pondered inwardly.

" Please, come with me. I will show you around the factory." Steward Rui looked at Jia Hao.

" No need, Uncle Rui. I know which place I want to check." Jia Hao smiled. " Just wait for me."

" Huh? Young Master, wait!"

However, barely after giving Jia Hao a chase, Steward Rui lost him.

" Wow, has the age finally caught me? I can't even chase a young man?" Steward Rui grumbled as he couldn't find Jia Hao at all.

Meanwhile, Jia Hao didn't go to the factory, but to the hill behind it. With his martial arts, it was almost as if he was blinking across places.

Suddenly, he paused his step as he looked around a spot. A pale yellow glow appeared on his palm.

" Earth Element Manipulation, Rise!"

Instantly, the ground beneath him shook as soil parted, revealing a remarkable tomb inside.

Made from pitch black wood that still gave an ominous shine, the remarkable craftsmanship could make any person in general look at it with awe.

However, Jia Hao who played the game Urban Fantasy, and literally lived in Netherworld for several lifetimes, he knew what kind of ominous treasure it is.

" Black Bronze Coffin on an ancestral grave sight. The ground here is actually inverted water diagram fengshui." Jia Hao muttered.

[ Corpse Infant: Currently budding. Required six months awake as Corpse General]

Jia Hao raised his palm as he channeled the Golden Arhat Vajra Body Arts.

But merely a few moments before he destroyed the coffin, his hands stopped.

A devious grin appeared on his lips as he stepped back.

" Ah, I wonder if we can have another arrangement?"
