My Cultivation System

Chapter 274 - Becoming The Ghost Hunter



'Ding,

          The trial details will be explained after the challenger enters the portal.

Before he could enter into the portal, Henrick received a system notification as usual.

'Let's hope, this trial will give me a lot of rewards.'

With that thought in his mind, Henrick entered the portal.

....

'Swoosh'

In a world that looked like it was covered by dark energy, a portal appeared in a place where there was no human or beast. Moreover, there was not a single blade of grass as long as the eye could see into the distance.

'This world looks eerie.'

Soon, a handsome young man walked out of the portal as he checked his surroundings and muttered to himself.

Even though he said that the world looks eerie, he looked like he was not bothered by it; instead, he looked like he was waiting for something.

'Ding,

        Please wait while the trial master sends the complete details of the trial.

Soon, a system notification rang in his head and at the same time a holographic screen appeared in front of him.

The handsome young man was none other than Henrick who was on his second level 1 trial.

'I wonder what kind of beings live here.'

While waiting for the instructions from the trial master, Henrick looked at his surroundings and wondered about the inhabitants in this world.

In this world, there were no suns or moons or stars. The world seemed to be covered with some kind of dark clouds. Of course, they were not enough to turn the entire world into darkness.

'If not for my fire demon senses, my vision would have been very bad.'

Currently, Henrick could see a radius of 100 meters with him being the center; however, he felt it was because of his fire demon vision.

Otherwise, it would have been a great thing to see even 10 meters radius around him.

'Ding,

          The trial master has sent the instructions for the challenger regarding his trial.

'Ding,

          The miscellaneous trial 'Become the Ghost Hunter' is selected by the trial master for the challenger.

Just as he was feeling great for having the fire demon bloodline in him, he received a couple of system notifications informing him about his trial.

'Ding,

          Trial name:- Become the Ghost Hunter.

          Purpose:- Kill the inhabitants 'Ambush ghost' of the minor ghost world.

          Target:- 1) Kill 1000 rank 1 ambush ghosts.

                      2) Kill 100 rank 2 ambush ghosts.

                      3) Kill 10 rank 3 ambush ghosts.

                      4) Kill 1 rank 4 ambush ghost.

          Note:- Even though this is just a minor ghost world, there are a dozen Rank 5 and one rank 6 ambush ghost resting. So, be careful with them. Once they were awake, even your bloodline could not help you.

Soon, the complete details of his miscellaneous trial appeared in front of him.

Until he read the note, Henrick felt it was just an easy trial.

'System, can you give me the complete information about the Ambush ghost?'

The note made him feel that this trial is a little difficult. So, he wanted to know more about the beings he was going to hunt.

'Ding,

          Master, I need to collect some samples from the 'Ambush ghost' to get the complete details on them. So, please find at least one ambush ghost.

The system politely said that it wanted the samples from the 'Ambush ghost' and seeing that Henrick shook his head before thinking, 'It looks I will just hunt one ghost first before knowing about them.'

With that thought in his mind, Henrick started searching for the inhabitants of this world.

'Damn it...this vision is not enough for me to search for them.'

After searching for an entire hour, Henrick didn't find a single one of them and he blamed it on his sight.

'Huh? A sneak attack'

All of a sudden, Henrick felt something was trying to make a sneak attack on him.

'Finally, there is someone.'

Henrick felt a little excited when he sensed someone was moving towards him.

He didn't turn back to take a complete look at the being behind and acted like he didn't notice it.

What's more funny was even though Henrick muttered it was a sneak attack, that being was slowly moving towards him openly.

'Maybe it was thinking I can't see 100 meters radius around me.'

When he thought about this possibility, Henrick could not help but laugh inside his heart.

"Die, human."

The being moved towards Henrick at a very slow pace until it was 10 meters away from him; however, when it was within a 10 meters radius of Henrick, its speed gave quite a shock to Henrick.

'It is very fast.'

Henrick hurriedly summoned his rank 4 burning spears and pierced through the floating being which was completely grey in colour.

'If I was not ready, I would have been severely injured by it.'

Henrick wiped the cold sweat from his forehead as he looked at the grey-coloured being nailed to the ground by his spear.

'Ding,

          Killed a Rank 1 ambush ghost.

          Gained 1 reputation point and 1 crude soul.

'What the hell? It is only a rank 1 ambush ghost?'

While he was observing the ambush ghost on the ground, Henrick received a system notification regarding the being he killed.

After learning that the ambush ghost he killed was only a rank 1, he was utterly shocked because its speed was comparable to peak rank 2 or early rank 3 beasts.

'It looks like I need to be really careful with these ambush ghosts.'

Finally, Henrick understood why the system asked him to be careful regarding the high-level ambush ghosts.

'If a rank 1 ambush ghost has a speed of rank 3 beast, then how fast a rank 5 and a rank 6 ambush ghosts which are currently resting, would be?'

Just thinking this made Henrick shiver a little; however, he soon controlled his emotions and asked the system, "System, I got a dead ambush ghost. Can you give me the information on the ambush ghosts now?"
