Ghost Catching System

Early in the morning, Ah-Hui was sitting cross-legged, facing the slowly rising sun.

He still looked frail and dispirited, but from now on, he would change himself and become a useful person.

"Get up," Fang Han’s voice sounded cold.

Ah-Hui quickly saluted and said, "Master."

Fang Han nodded slightly and said, "Since the Holy Master has taken a liking to you, you must cherish this opportunity and cultivate diligently from now on. If you’re lazy, even if the Holy Master doesn’t say anything, I will throw you out."

Ah-Hui hurriedly said, "Yes, Master."

Fang Han said, "Then first, I will teach you the basic stuff of a Yin-Yang Practitioner, let’s start."

After practicing with Fang Han for a while, Ah-Hui couldn’t help but ask, "Master, does the Holy Master live alone? Where are his parents?"

Fang Han shook his head, sternly saying, "Don’t ask what you shouldn’t."

Ah-Hui quickly nodded, not daring to ask again.

The Ghost Master is very strict.

I will definitely work hard.

After a while of practicing, Chu Hao called out, "Ah-Hui, let’s go down the mountain to play some chicken."

Ah-Hui exclaimed "Ah" and looked over at his master.

Fang Han said, "Go ahead."

Ah-Hui ran to Chu Hao and said, "Holy Master."

Chu Hao frowned and patted his shoulder, saying, "Do me a favor, don’t call me Holy Master, call me bro."

Ah-Hui, touched, said, "Bro."

"Let’s go, play chicken," Chu Hao said excitedly.

Ah-Hui felt speechless; this Holy Master was different from what he imagined, just another gaming addict. Was he really the Savior for everyone?

It was the same internet cafe.

As soon as Chu Hao entered, he noticed there were as many people as there were yesterday, he heard it was because the celebration at the Saint Master Hall lasted seven days.

For these seven days, Anli City was bustling with people from all over the country.

Ah-Hui thought, "How could they ever imagine that their revered Holy Master is playing games during the celebration!"

I was equally surprised.

"Swipe the card to log in."

The cashier girl wasn’t there today; she finally got time off to have some fun.

It was the owner at the shop, he looked at Ah-Hui and smiled, "Ah-Hui, you’re early today."

Then, the owner looked at Chu Hao and was slightly taken aback, he stammered, "You!?"

Chu Hao chuckled and said, "Long time no see, boss."

The owner took a breath, looked around to make sure nobody noticed, and whispered, "Holy Master, what brings you here."

Ah-Hui was a bit taken aback. The owner knows the Holy Master?

Chu Hao said, "Playing games, of course."

"Ding... Host successfully acted pretentiously, gaining forty thousand Pretentiousness Points."

The owner was quietly thrilled; he did indeed know Chu Hao. Back when Chu Hao was in school, he used to come play games often, and the owner even let him play for free.

Considered here as a special VIP.

He told his friends about this, but none of them believed him, thinking he was just bragging.

The owner chuckled, "Haha... Since you’re here, it’s definitely free, want a booth? I can clear one out for you."

Chu Hao handed back his ID card, saying, "No need to go to so much trouble."

The two of them logged onto the computers.

The owner couldn’t help but take out his phone and snap a picture of Chu Hao, happily saving it.

By noon, the internet cafe finally became more crowded.

People started to enter one after another, saying, "The Saint Master Hall is so big, my feet are sore from walking."

"Indeed, too many people, I’ve heard the celebration lasts seven days, it’s a holiday worldwide, so there are too many people coming."

"Sigh... It’s a shame we couldn’t see the Holy Master, I heard he was there on the first day of the celebration."

"Yeah, we missed the chance."

The owner chuckled to himself, thinking how could they ever imagine the Holy Master is playing games in my shop.

No, I mustn’t say a word, if people outside find out the Holy Master is here, it’ll attract many, and then the Holy Master won’t come here to play anymore.

"Soon, the Holy Master will need to eat, it’s time to show off my true cooking skills."

The owner called the cashier girl to come back.

System prompt: "New task released, even in a leisurely life, there is joy in acting pretentiously, please gather your own chicken-eating squad."

System prompt: "Complete the task to earn twenty million Experience Points."

System prompt: "Complete the task to receive the title ’Strive to Pretend, Advance Every Day.’

Chu Hao, puzzled, said, "System, aren’t you the Ghost-catching System? What kind of bizarre task is this, it doesn’t match your characteristics, I’m going to report you."

System: "This task allows you to gather ghosts as teammates."

Ah, that’s how it is.

Without another word, Chu Hao immediately called Fang Han.

"Hello, who is it? Speak."

Chu Hao was speechless, mentally picturing Fang Han, holding the phone to his face, thinking it would be strange if you could hear me.

"Come find me, I’m at Xiangshang Internet Cafe."

"Oh right, bring Bai Yesheng with you."

In no time, Fang Han and Bai Yesheng both arrived.

"Holy Master, why did you call for me," Fang Han asked.

Chu Hao had the owner set up a computer for them, saying, "Log on, let’s put together a squad to play chicken."

Fang Han nodded, not knowing what it was, but still sat down.

Ah-Hui quickly taught his master how to boot up and register an account to play.

First, he let Fang Han get familiar with the controls; after an hour, Fang Han still seemed clueless, as the electronic controls of modern society were truly unfamiliar to him.

Beside him, Bai Yesheng couldn’t stand by any longer and couldn’t help but say, "Just pick up the gun already."

Fang Han said, "Do I need your teaching, can you even play?"

Bai Yesheng rolled his eyes; it was his first time on a computer too, but he found the experience fascinating, he couldn’t believe society had evolved to this point.

He found the game intriguing, itching to play and said, "Get up, let me play a round."

"No way, this is a task the Holy Master gave me, I must complete it."

Bai Yesheng, feeling itchy, went to the owner and said, "Get me a setup of that thing too."

Bai Yesheng was a ghost, yet his ghostly form was distinct, knowing he was a friend of the Holy Master’s, the owner wasn’t stingy and set up a computer for Bai Yesheng as well.

Three hours later.

The dashing Bai Yesheng exclaimed excitedly, "Ha, who can challenge me, I’ve won the chicken dinner!"

He turned, proudly smirking at Fang Han, who for three hours straight, kept dying soon after landing.

"You’re really bad."

Fang Han, his face stern, said, "What’s it to you, get lost."

Bai Yesheng ignored him and seeing Chu Hao and Ah-Hui teaming up, couldn’t help but say, "Holy Master, can I join?"

Chu Hao glanced at him and said, "Do you know how to play?"

Bai Yesheng quickly said, "I just won the chicken dinner, I’m better than Fang Han."

Upon hearing this, Fang Han stated, "I’ll soon win a chicken dinner too."

Chu Hao said, "Alright, come on."

The three of them teamed up and had a blast playing.

Bai Yesheng was amazed, thinking this game was far too fun, there was a real sense of achievement in-game slaughters, if he’d known the human world had such great entertainment, why would he have sought it out? Asking for trouble.

Thinking of his circumstance, Bai Yesheng felt a headache coming on.

Best to play as much as he could now, fearing he wouldn’t have the chance in the future.
