Chapter 185 The One Asking for Directions
Human nature is greedy.
This is even more evident in games, especially for veterans like Kazumi, who are hoarders and collectors. Completing all items to their maximum potential can be considered the most basic principle.
The description that came with the [Graveyard Hill] blueprint was, for Kazumi, basically like triggering memories in her DNA.
The unknown size, and the as-yet-unknown quantity of Death Aura soil required, both indicate that this is a growth-type building whose attributes can change with the amount of building materials.
Although in general, the growth of such buildings yields less as time goes on, this does not prevent Kazumi, a fervent farming enthusiast, from wanting to maximize the building’s benefits.
Of course, the young girl wouldn’t do something foolish in the face of life-or-death danger. The reason she hadn’t built it before was mainly because the territory’s area hadn’t reached the minimum requirement for [Graveyard Hill].
Later, as Death Aura constantly expanded the territory in the void, the current territorial area has reached the minimum requirement for the building. However, Kazumi’s situation has improved slightly, and in a way, she can afford to take a break.
Having successfully joined the [Dark] Organization, this largest dark organization will at least not have any excessive thoughts about her during the honeymoon period of her membership. As long as she can demonstrate her value, there won’t be too much danger here.
The gradual surfacing of the psychic investigation also relieved Kazumi. Overt threats are much easier to deal with than being spied on from the shadows. As long as she can keep an eye on Mai Shinomiyai and the people she contacts, or if she can find a way to get rid of her silently later, the problem on this line should be resolved.
However, the arrival of this new troop directly exposed the resource issues that the territory had been experiencing all along.
Kazumi has never been indecisive, especially in this world. Having abandoned superfluous and unnecessary emotions, the only thing she considers when it comes to the gains and losses of things is probably her own benefit.
Therefore, making this decision only took a moment of thought. After all, investing in the early stages is necessary for returns. The most greedy strategy often results in a complete collapse across the board.
Quickly reviewing her previous thoughts, the young girl quickly made a decision. She would wait another day, and tonight she would try to build [Graveyard Hill]. She would first stabilize the development progress of the territory and then slowly improve her own strength.
The previous statement from [Shell] was also the first mission she would receive in the coming days, so improving her strength again during this period is very necessary to deal with potential trouble.
While thinking about these things, the young girl’s hands did not stop. She skillfully took off her pajamas, revealing her slender, fair, and tender body.
The young girl’s body was very white. Because she didn’t exercise outdoors much and due to the effect of her abilities, her skin was as white, tender, and smooth as a newborn baby’s.
Her originally frail body had also become more fleshy due to the improved nutrition during this period. Compared to her dry and thin figure in the past, which was unappealing, her curves were now a bit more charming.
However, the young girl was not aware of this. She raised her hand, summoned the Black Coffin, threw the clothes in her hand onto the bed, and began to control the Black Coffin to absorb the Death Aura from her body and the bed.
This usage, similar to a dryer, was probably the young girl’s daily routine every morning. Not to mention the fact that she slept with Da Bai all night yesterday.
Given her personality, Kazumi definitely wouldn’t skimp on researching her abilities and undead troops. Dissection was also something she could do with ease. If it weren’t for the current lack of resources and tools, Kazumi would have almost wanted to dismantle the other ghoul.
When dissecting, Kazumi would wear the [Human Skin Cloak] and use its ability to absorb any mucus that might get on her.
Normal contact was unavoidable. No matter how carefully she was, she would inevitably get a little bit contaminated with the Death Aura unique to the undead.
It’s not that Kazumi dislikes the smell. On the contrary, she finds the smell, with its faint poppy fragrance, quite pleasant.
However, Death Aura can affect ordinary people. The only result of flesh and blood coming into contact with Death Aura is to be corroded by it. Especially with prolonged contact, even if it doesn’t result in immediate death, weakness and illness are very common.
Therefore, Kazumi would naturally not make such a low-level mistake. She was going to Shikoku Gakuin, a place with many people and eyes, where many Professional Heroes are employed. Moreover, there was an Onmyoji girl in her class who was targeting her. Going to school with a ball of death aura would be no different from blowing herself up.
In general, this was something she had to do to cover up any potential giveaways on her body. Therefore, whether going to school, eating, or going on a date, the young girl always cleaned herself inside and out with the Black Coffin to remove the aura before leaving.
It was absolutely not because she was afraid that her Death Aura would infect the dog and make him sick.
Absolutely not!!
Thinking of something, a blush appeared on the young girl’s originally fair and tender face. Feeling the Death Aura on her body dissipate, Kazumi raised her hand and put away the Black Coffin. She glanced at the alarm clock on the table, walked to the side, picked up the pre-prepared school uniform, and put it on.
After carefully tidying herself up in the mirror, the young girl picked up her handbag and walked towards the door.
……..
The morning routine was the same as usual. To Kazumi’s surprise, Shinichi Sato was still waiting for her downstairs on time today.
After all, she hadn’t received a message from him all night. The young girl thought he might be busy with some special training and had forgotten to check his phone.
However, according to his explanation, his phone had accidentally fallen and broken, preventing him from replying. Later, when he was ready to reply, he was afraid of disturbing her rest too much, so he specifically came early this morning to report to Kazumi.
Kazumi didn’t know how to complain about her boyfriend’s foolish behavior. She was even getting used to it?
With a blank look, she accepted the food offered by the young man. Kazumi ate breakfast while indifferently listening to the young man’s chatter about his life, and then headed to school as usual.
But as soon as they reached the school gate, they were stopped by a polite call. A deep but slightly seductive voice came from behind them.
“Hello, classmate, could you please tell me how to get to the second teaching building?”
