Chapter 32: Arcane

"I'll use this bag of soup dumplings to buy some grilled sausages, is that okay?"

In the small supermarket in the maze world, Zhou Yuan put a bag of human meat soup dumplings on the counter.

Behind the counter, the female cashier, who had died in a miserable state, was covered in blood. She stared at Zhou Yuan with her bloodshot eyes for a long time before she made a move. She reluctantly took out two sausages from the sausage cabinet and inserted bamboo skewers into them.

"Only two?"

"You guys... ran away... without giving me money..." The female clerk's throat was cut, and her voice was as thick and hoarse as a broken bellows.

"..."

Zhou Yuan was stunned for a moment, and felt that there seemed to be some truth to it, but the Mobile Task Force also did it, so why were they targeting only me?
He immediately said, "I am a VIP customer of Happy Castle."

With the Six Desires Demon Tree destroyed and the director completely taking control of the Happy Castle, Zhou Yuan naturally became an honored guest of the park. Not only would the evil spirits not harm him, but they would treat him as a distinguished guest.

The female cashier was silent for a long time, and finally took out three more sausages very reluctantly.

"It's only... this much..."

"Okay, thanks." Zhou Yuan thanked politely.

He doesn't plan to sell these five sausages for the time being, as he might encounter monsters and demons in the future, and they might come in handy.

After leaving the maze world, Zhou Yuan returned to the base, took out the Iron Rose revolver, and prepared to make spiritual bullets.

There are four bullets left in the magazine, namely a paralysis bullet, a magic-breaking bullet, and two explosive bullets.

The preferred bullet type at present is undoubtedly the "100% headshot bullet", but unfortunately Zhou Yuan's current spiritual strength is not enough and his spiritual value is too low, so he cannot produce a 100% headshot bullet.

He thought for a while and finally decided to make "freezing bullets" and "armor-piercing bullets".

The effect of the freezing bomb is to generate solid ice at the impact point, freezing the enemy.

As the name suggests, armor-piercing bullets have strong armor-piercing capabilities and can also have significant effects against certain extraordinary defensive measures.

After making the bullets, Zhou Yuan took out a sleeping bag from his backpack, lay down on it, and fell into a deep sleep in a short while.

When Zhou Yuan opened his eyes again, it was sunny outside.

"It's two o'clock..."

Zhou Yuan took out his Opple smartphone to check the time, then stretched, turned over, and lay there, leisurely watching short videos.

This brushing lasted until the evening.

Before ten o'clock, Zhou Yuan came to the director's office because the Ghost Park was about to open and it was safest to stay here.

He stood in front of the window and stared at the gate of the paradise. When the time reached ten o'clock, dozens of resentful figures suddenly appeared at the entrance.

There is an eight-foot-tall ultimate car dressed in white, a strange woman wearing a mask and holding scissors, and a snow girl who is all white and constantly emitting cold air...

Each one of them is a heavyweight.

"Welcome to the Happy Castle. Today is the first day of the park's opening. Tickets are free and I hope everyone has fun." The director leaned forward slightly and greeted the guests who had come from afar.

Bang bang bang!
Countless fireworks soared into the sky, blooming brilliantly, illuminating the entire night sky.

The entire amusement park suddenly lit up. The silent facilities glowed with light. The brilliant neon lights cast a rainbow-like glow, illuminating every corner like a dream. The figures of past tourists emerged, wandering around the park.

The Ferris wheel lit up with colorful lights and slowly turned. The roller coaster rumbled over the heads of the crowd, screams were heard everywhere, and on the stage, ballet dancers danced to the accompaniment of gentle hymns...

Happy time is about to begin.

·
Two hours later.

As the time approached midnight, Zhou Yuan heard a system prompt.

[Survive three days in the Happy Castle Amusement Park: 3/3]

[Mission completed, countdown to return - 9:59]

"Director, I'm leaving. See you again if we're lucky." Zhou Yuan shouted into the air and chose to teleport immediately.

When he opened his eyes again, he appeared in the basement before the mission began.

[The mission "Happy Castle" has been completed]

[Task rating: S (experience points and star coin rewards increased to 150%)]

[Comment: Although the Happy Castle has fallen in the world of the living, from now on, it will exist forever in the world of the dead.

take off!

Zhou Yuan can only say this: take off in one go!
He first looked at the [Arcane] column on the system panel.

At the moment of upgrading, a new power emerged from his soul, and Zhou Yuan knew that it was arcane power.

——【Arcane: Shadow】

Zhou Yuan took out his cell phone and turned on the flashlight, and the light illuminated the entire basement.

As his mind moved, the shadow behind him slowly stood up.

Zhou Yuan turned around, and his shadow did not deform due to the movement of the light source, and it just stood there quietly.

He reached out to touch it, but his palm passed through the dark shadow and he could only touch the air.

As the thought came to his mind again, the shadow quickly collapsed and returned to his feet.

Zhou Yuan put away his phone, and the storage room suddenly returned to darkness. He suddenly discovered that he had dark vision and could see clearly in the dark even without night vision goggles.

Then he activated his ability, and his entire body strangely blended into the darkness, completely disappearing in the storage room, as if he had never appeared.

There was no light in the corridor outside the storage room, and it was pitch dark. The next second, Zhou Yuan's figure emerged in the darkness.

"Shadow control, shadow transformation, shadow escape..."

Zhou Yuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and grinned, feeling ecstatic inside.

On the one hand, he finally mastered the true supernatural power, and on the other hand, this arcane power was a perfect match with the "Shadow Killer Cloak"!
"The shadow arcane is very suitable for assassination. With the shadow killer cloak, it is invincible."

The corridor was pitch black at twelve o'clock in the morning. Zhou Yuan had just acquired a new ability and was in a playful mood. He used Shadow Escape to return directly to his doorstep. It took him less than three seconds to travel back to the height of more than ten floors.

[You may be afraid that someone will sneak into your home and do something to you during these three days. I can tell you responsibly - relax, you are almost paranoid. ]

It seems nothing happened... Zhou Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, teleported back home, and prepared to count the harvest.

　Sorry, I'm just a few days away for Chinese New Year. I'm really busy.
