Trembling At A High Altitude

This slash should have been enough to kill the Ten-Turned Ghost King.

But unbelievably, it didn't kill the Ghost Governor!

Judging by how frantically the Ghost Governor was fleeing, his Hit Points had definitely dropped below one third.

Li Teng deeply suspected that the script was cheating.

It wasn't just a suspicion, he was almost sure of it.

The script restricted the maximum damage each attack could inflict on the Ghost Governor.

This meant that no matter how powerful an attack was, it could never be a one-hit kill!

This was utterly despicable!

Having no other option, Li Teng had to use invisibility and his teleport skills to chase after him, then continue to charge up double the power using the Death God APP.

Fortunately, although the Ghost Governor was fast, he wasn't as quick as Li Teng's current teleport skills.

In no time, Li Teng, still invisible, charged ahead of the Ghost Governor.

The script's cheating caused damage overflow for Li Teng, and he no longer charged up for long periods; feeling it was about right, he suddenly appeared in front of the Ghost Governor and delivered a fierce slash.

The Ghost Governor, in his frantic rush, couldn't avoid it in time and was struck squarely by Li Teng's blade again.

Still didn't die.

The Ghost Governor had no choice but to flee in a different direction, and after a while, he turned towards the Governor's Mansion.

As an avid gamer, Li Teng roughly understood this boss's mechanics now.

It was the type of cheating boss that limited damage per attack, requiring a certain number of hits to finally be killed, even when down to the last bit of Hit Points.

Li Teng hesitated no longer, charging up for ten seconds each time before rushing to the Ghost Governor to strike him with his sword.

The damage value wouldn't be low, and he aimed to complete the number of required hits first, otherwise it was all for nothing.

Finally, when the Ghost Governor and the Governor's Mansion were less than two kilometers apart, Li Teng's another slash finally depleted his Hit Points, knocking him down to the ground.

"What a shameless move!"

Li Teng cursed, quickly rummaging through the corpse of the Ghost Governor.

The powerful Sprayer Magical Treasure in his hand now belonged to Li Teng.

But he found no other treasures.

Except for a card.

A consumption voucher for Film and Television City worth Two Thousand Points.

"Damn! There's such a reward too?"

Unfortunately, it couldn't be used to lower the height of the pillars, only for food, shopping, bathing, accommodation, and other entertainments inside Film and Television City.

It looked like it was just to save Li Teng some meal money.

He wouldn't have to scrimp and save to eat steamed buns anymore.

He could consider eating meal boxes now.

And occasionally, he might splurge on some roast chicken or spicy shrimp as a treat.

The reward was quite decent; at this point, Li Teng was less interested in any more Magical Treasures.

Since he had come near the Governor's Mansion, of course, Li Teng would go and check it out.

The Governor's Mansion had an Imperial Guard, but most of the soldiers had been taken out by the Ghost Governor earlier, and since they weren't fast enough, they hadn't returned yet.

The remaining defensive force in the Governor's Mansion was very limited; Li Teng flew in and swiftly took care of the situation, then began a thorough looting spree inside the mansion.

Unsure of what to loot.

The paintings hanging on the walls, various antiques that looked valuable, and other unidentifiable but seemingly valuable items; Li Teng swept them all into the storage space he had conjured.

Eventually, in the governor's study, he found another card.

A card made of the same material as the previous Film and Television City consumption voucher.

But it wasn't a consumption coupon; there was just a QR code on it.

After Li Teng scanned it, the card disappeared on its own.

However, a permanent universal app had been added to his wristwatch.

It was the QiDian Reading APP.

Once installed on the wristwatch and opened, he really could read online novels.

Moreover, according to the description, this APP could be taken out of the Scripted World. It was a universal APP.

This meant that from now on, he could read online novels even while on the stone pillar! It wouldn't be so boring anymore!

He wondered if he could interact with other readers through the chapter commentary and book review section from the other world?

Now wasn't the time to delve into that; he needed to return to Ghost-Seal Bank first.

If there were any good rewards there, he didn't want them stolen by Li Bai and Bald Qiang.

Li Teng leaped up and flew rapidly toward Ghost-Seal Bank.

To get back as quickly as possible, Li Teng even expended some Life Resources to enhance his teleportation skill, which allowed him to cover tens of kilometers in just five minutes and arrive outside Ghost-Seal Bank.

Although Li Bai and others were still attacking, their Attack Power was limited and they still hadn't breached the protection Array of Ghost-Seal Bank.

In Li Teng's absence, Li Bai and Bald Qiang didn't attack each other.

It seemed that Li Teng's strength was indeed a sufficient deterrent to them.

"Did you take out the Ghost Governor?" Everyone was very curious about that.

"I did," Li Teng replied lightly.

"What's the reward for the first kill?"

"A Sprayer Magical Treasure that seems very powerful, a Film and Television City consumption coupon for two thousand points, and a QiDian Reading APP." Li Teng didn't hide it from them.

"Wow, those are some nice rewards!"

"Two thousand points will last us quite a while!"

"And now we can read online novels! That's awesome!"

"Based on usual practices, maybe it'll just be a two hundred points consumption coupon for the second kill."

"Of course, the first kill rewards are the richest."

"..."

Everyone seemed unsurprised by this form of rewarding and all wore envious expressions.

Li Teng sighed; Film and Television City was really wicked, keeping them locked up on a stone pillar without even ensuring basic food and water, let alone the pleasure of reading online novels.

It had gotten to the point where simply having a full meal and reading an online novel were seen as great and rare pleasures.

He didn't know what to say anymore.

But honestly, such rewards were indeed very appealing to Li Teng.

He was now fervently smashing the outer Array of Ghost-Seal Bank, curious to see if there were similar rewards inside.

Using various Ghost Treasures recklessly, Li Teng soon had the protective Array teetering.

"You guys wait on the outside later; I'll go in first to clear the defense, then you can come in," Li Teng instructed the others briefly.

With many hands, if any good items were hidden by them, it would be awkward for him to openly confront them.

Rather than stoop to violence and shatter relationships later, it was better to preemptively prevent any issues.

Others understood immediately upon hearing this and didn't dare defy Li Teng's command.

After all, in the script, the Ten-Turned Ghost King had been killed by Li Teng, the first kill of the Ghost Governor had gone to him, and he was the one who had damaged the Array of Ghost-Seal Bank. The treasures inside essentially belonged to him; if he left them any, that would be considered generous, they had no grounds to complain if he didn't.

'Crash…' With a loud sound,

Li Teng completely shattered the Array.

Li Teng picked up the War Blade and charged inside.
