I Don't Agree to the Terms-Chapter 1038 - 545: Are These Ghosts and Monsters Just Spawned?

"The distance is manageable." Shura also realized, the intelligent terminal given by Gu Shanhai seemed to have more functions than what was described in the "First Era."

He usually used very few of such technological products, at most just some surveillance equipment.

Three thousand kilometers actually wasn't that far for Shura and Gu Shanhai, but for the ghosts, it was indeed a long distance.

A group of creatures more fragile than humans, without aid from technology or the transcendent, couldn't possibly travel three thousand kilometers quickly.

"Wait, that's not right, when did you start this? How did the news reach me? Three thousand kilometers is not a simple route for the ghosts." At this moment, Shura keenly realized, hastily questioning his doubts.

"How would I know? I've been busy catching ghosts to work for me, where would I find the time to check on these things? If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known." Gu Shanhai retorted.

"Alright, let me investigate these matters, I'll find out soon enough, just keep steady, don't end up getting killed halfway through with such a big operation." Shura knew the things Gu Shanhai wanted to do were undoubtedly significant, so he naturally wouldn't ask him to look into this matter.

Therefore, it would be he who did the work, yet he had no complaints about it.

Both parties carried out their duties, even though Shura couldn't understand what Gu Shanhai wanted to accomplish, he could confirm it was related to the mission.

"Don't worry, I have experience in rebellion, I may not have eaten pork, but I've seen pigs run."

Inside the intelligent terminal, Gu Shanhai's voice was full of confidence, which surprised Shura a bit, suggesting that he had participated in rebellions before, and from the tone, it wasn't his first time.

Shura had taken part too, but most of the time in the role of a mercenary and assassin, involved in decapitation operations or small group ambushes.

He discerned a different method of rebellion from Gu Shanhai's tone.

Apart from players of the lord or legion type, most players participating in rebellions wouldn't cause too much commotion.

"This experience is probably not ordinary."

After ending the call with the intelligent terminal, Shura couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark, he didn't want to know much, what Gu Shanhai could achieve he might not.

If he couldn't even gauge his abilities, thinking he was second only to the heavens, he could only mix in the second or third tiers.

The mindset that other's success is due to luck while one's own failure is just bad luck is typically self-comfort to cover up one's lack of ability.

Luck might be significant, but capable people could still stand out even if luck was poor.

"Better go investigate the source of the information." Shura put away the isolation measures and then left with large strides.

It's not that easy to explore, mainly because of the peculiar nature of ghosts, the other party may choose to remain silent, although ghosts are weak and pose no threat to Shura, just if their quirky nature surfaces, they might not spill the beans even if tortured.

...

"An endless number of ghosts."

"Messages spreading at a bizarre speed."

"This ghost world really took me by surprise."

Gu Shanhai looked at the intelligent terminal in his hand, and a peculiar expression emerged on his face.

This matter is out of the ordinary.

He indeed didn't know.

In reality, he had already performed a Soul Search on ghosts, and they didn't know how they were born; in their memory, they just opened their eyes and came to this world, unlike humans who are ignorant at birth, ghosts carry various common knowledge from birth.

They know the All Ghosts Survival Platform, they are aware of their race, abilities, and the races and abilities of other ghosts.

To Gu Shanhai, it feels like they are born with a downloaded common knowledge package, which is directly installed and can be used unconditionally.

This situation seems rather peculiar to Gu Shanhai.

"Although the unique life form of ghosts has defects, thinking about it, it somehow feels like a mass-produced item."

"Since they're worthless, it doesn't matter how they're misused."

"So, where is the ghost production factory?"

The birth of ghosts isn't restricted to any one place, but instead, they are randomly born.

Just like that, with a snap, they appear suddenly and are born.

"If I could acquire this technology, wouldn't it mean I'd no longer have to worry about the population of civilization later on?"

Gu Shanhai's civilization base intends to use Heart Demon Dao Soldiers; these are numerous and cheap. If this technology is added, the survival efficiency would be higher, and the cost might be further reduced.

Of course, Heart Demon Dao Soldiers are just one type; Spirit Plants, Spiritual Beasts, and others would also be integrated as part of the civilization, to serve as Gu Shanhai's resources and act as a civilization computer, providing sufficient system-based assistance for him.

Nine States Instrument, Four Saints Beasts System, and others naturally count as part of the civilization too; after all, this civilization is Peeping Realm itself.

"Quite interesting, worth special observation." Gu Shanhai issued an order to the Four Saints Beasts System, instructing it to collect relevant data.

Gu Shanhai is somewhat tied up, and besides, such trivial matters should be dealt with by the Four Saints Beasts System.

"There's also the issue of message transmission; three thousand kilometers isn't a short distance, yet ghosts have no means of transport, nor related communication technology; how do they manage it?"

"The official Ghost World? That's complete nonsense."

After the All Ghosts Survival Platform halted updates and pulled ghosts inside to survive, the official ghost authorities disbanded, leaving not a single ghost willing to take on the job.

"Wait, then how was the message transmitted before by the official ghost authorities?" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The Ghost World is not actually large, and without communication technology, message transmission was very... convenient; yes, defying logic, extremely convenient, not shut-in.

"So, from the beginning, there is some technology or thing that allows information to flow among all ghosts."

"Moreover, it's very cryptic, unknown, to the point where even the ghosts themselves can't identify it."

"As expected, the Ghost World is no pushover. Even if it's interfered with, making the civilization develop bizarrely."

"A camel that's starved is still bigger than a horse; no matter how awful it is, it has the backing of the world."

Gu Shanhai not only felt no dissatisfaction or trouble from this, the more problems, the more he realized the profit contained within it.

Whether it's the issue of ghost quantity or message transmission, it seemed unfavorable to him. But thinking differently, if he could analyze the appropriate technology for his use, wouldn't it transform into one of his powers, instead of merely viewing it as a threat to be eliminated?

"Besides these two bizarre situations, perhaps there are many similar oddities within the Ghost World."

"These are also a form of wealth; it's just that it's not easy to unearth them."

Initially, Gu Shanhai and Shura themselves must discover; as native entities, ghosts wouldn't perceive these situations as problems within their common knowledge but rather see them as normal occurrences.

As for investigation, Gu Shanhai would proceed, but it would be executed through the Four Saints Beasts System, and not even the complete Four Saints Beasts System, only about a tenthousandth of its computing power.

The majority of the computing power had been diverted by Gu Shanhai, to assist in researching the Peeping Realm, and studying the contents of the four books acquired.

"I hope Shura can uncover more, otherwise relying only on the Four Saints Beasts System, there are still quite a few limitations."

The remaining ten-thousandth computing power of the Four Saints Beasts System not only needs to be involved in investigation but also manage the ghost puppet army, develop the puppet army, handle various chores for Gu Shanhai and so on, so although it's distributed in bits, there isn't much left, and naturally, the efficiency cannot be high.
