Chapter 224 – Ten thousand people in prison

Chapter 224 – Ten thousand people in prison

Seeing the old eunuch bowing and scraping in front of Lin Jichen, all the players were dumbfounded.

Who the hell is this old eunuch?

Kuang Xiaoyan, impatient, stepped forward and pointed at the eunuch, cursing loudly, "Damn it, you old freak without a dick, get lost! What's an eunuch doing here, acting all high and mighty?"

The old eunuch's face changed, and he glanced back at Kuang Xiaoyan. In the crowd, Kuang Xiaoyan suddenly felt like he was being stared down by a ferocious beast, cold sweat breaking out all over his body.

Before he could react, the old eunuch suddenly disappeared from his spot. In the next second, he was already in front of Kuang Xiaoyan, his skeletal hand gripping Kuang Xiaoyan's neck.

Without any visible effort, words started appearing above Kuang Xiaoyan's head.

[Blood Curse: Vitality -30%, lasts for 90 days.]

[Strength Curse: Strength -30%, lasts for 90 days.]

[Reduced Beauty Curse: Looks -30%, lasts for 90 days.]

[Fate Curse: Luck -30%, lasts for 90 days.]

...

A series of curses made Kuang Xiaoyan scream like he had seen a ghost.

"Let go of me! Let go of me!"

Lin Jichen's eyelids twitched as he watched. In his previous life, he had never seen this old eunuch. He never expected that this eunuch was actually a curse master!

Curse masters were a rare profession in Tale of Immortal, extremely uncommon.

And judging by his cultivation aura, he was a Elemental Infant Realm curse master.

Curse masters generally had short lifespans, and reaching the Elemental Infant Realm as a curse master was extremely rare.

After all the attributes were lowered, the old eunuch casually tossed Kuang Xiaoyan into the crowd of guards.

"Detain this man in the Hidden Dragon Dungeon for 30 days, not a day less."

"Yes, Chief Eunuch!"

The guards immediately complied.

The Chief Eunuch then scanned everyone present and ordered again, "All red-named players, detain them in the dungeon for 3 days."

This statement caused an uproar in the city, with everyone expressing their dissatisfaction.

"Why? NPCs can just arrest people randomly? He cursed at you, we didn't!"

"Yeah, this game is ridiculous. How can NPCs interfere in player conflicts?"

"I'm reporting this to Nuwa!"

"I was just worried you'd be overwhelmed, trying to be helpful," Jiang Luoyu pouted in dissatisfaction.

Lin Jichen chuckled awkwardly, "Yes, yes, thank you, beautiful Jiang, for your help. I'm deeply grateful."

Jiang Luoyu smiled and asked curiously, "By the way, why is this eunuch so protective of you?"

Su Wanling, standing beside them, asked whimsically, "Did you apply to be an eunuch in the royal city? Is that old eunuch your colleague?"

Lin Jichen: "..."

"Since you're so talkative, why not keep it going?" Lin Jichen glared at her, annoyed. Damn it, you're the eunuch, your whole family are eunuchs!

"I came to save you, and you're so mean. President, look at him, he's so ungrateful," Su Wanling complained.

Jiang Luoyu laughed, "Serves you right for talking nonsense."

Su Wanling felt dejected. Great, her bestie was siding with someone else so quickly? What happened to their friendship?

"She's always like this, ignore her. You haven't told me the reason yet," Jiang Luoyu pressed.

Lin Jichen didn't hide anything and explained the whole story.

Jiang Luoyu and Su Wanling were both shocked, their mouths agape in disbelief.

"You mean, you attended the Empress Ji's birthday banquet and drew a Heavenly Grade Secret Technique? That's how you got it?"

Lin Jichen nodded, "Yes."

The two women exchanged glances, speechless.

A Heavenly Grade Secret Technique, and it came so easily!

How was this different from getting it for free?

"I'm not convinced. This guy already has an absurdly high drop rate from monsters, and now he draws a Heavenly Grade Secret Technique? Be honest, did you seduce the boss's daughter? How else do you have such luck?"

Su Wanling looked suspicious. This guy was either the boss's son-in-law or the reincarnation of the God of Luck. There were no other possibilities!

"You have quite the imagination," Lin Jichen rolled his eyes at her.

"Wanling, stop it," Jiang Luoyu interrupted her wild speculation and turned to Lin Jichen, "So you just need to hide in the city for seven days?"

Lin Jichen smiled bitterly, "It's not that easy. I'll soon be forcibly removed from the city. I won't be able to enter sects, cities, or use teleportation arrays or talismans."

"What? Then aren't you still in danger?" Jiang Luoyu exclaimed.

Lin Jichen nodded, "That's why I need to leave the city quickly and hide outside for seven days. I have to go now, message me if you need anything."

"Be careful. If you need help, just ask. The entire Moon Shadow Guild is your friend," Jiang Luoyu reminded him.

A warm feeling flowed through Lin Jichen's heart. He nodded and left the city.
