When Qin Nuo left the Specter Supermarket, it was alreadyte at night.


    Standing by the eerie, pitch-ck bus stop, Qin Nuo held a box in his hands.


    The box emitted a corpse-like aura, making Qin Nuo uneasy.


    "What exactly is inside this box?" Qin Nuo asked.


    "A finger," the Blood-Eyed Ghost replied.


    "A finger can cause such amotion?" Qin Nuo was shocked.


    The owner of this finger must be something truly terrifying, right?


    "This thing can also be used as an ingredient. You ghosts have the most bizarre tastes," Qin Nuo remarked.


    "It''s not about taste.""They can only consume this kind of thing, or rather, it''s the only food they can absorb."


    "The ghost that can eat this finger is beyond your imagination," the Blood-Eyed Ghost said.


    "Stronger than you?" Qin Nuo asked tentatively.


    "Not bad. If I weren''t injured and all nine eyes were open, I wouldn''t be afraid of it!" the Blood-Eyed Ghost boasted.


    "You''re injured? Who hurt you? Is it serious?"


    "You ask too many damn questions!"


    "Human, don''t think that just because you signed a contract with me, we''re close. I remember the grudge of you tricking me. Once the contract is up in a year, I''ll be the first to eat you!"


    "Well, let''s talk about it in a year then."


    "Besides, you might not even be able to beat me in a year, right?" Qin Nuo said with a carefree smile.


    Ding ding.


    A long bell sound came from afar.


    Through the white fog, the bus slowly approached.


    "The bus is here." Qin Nuo stood up with the box.


    "Aren''t you afraid of being torn apart by the ghosts on the bus, being a human?" the Blood-Eyed Ghost asked strangely.


    "Afraid of what? Aren''t you here?" Qin Nuo smiled faintly. The killer''s raincoat wasn''t very effective; slightly stronger ghosts could see through it.


    So, Qin Nuo simply walked openly on the street.


    After all, with the contract, the Blood-Eyed Ghost had to unconditionally serve as his shield.


    The Blood-Eyed Ghost''s face darkened, feeling as if a ma had spat all over it.


    The bus stopped at the station, and the front door slowly opened.


    Qin Nuo got on the bus and dropped two pieces of Ghost Currency into the fare box.


    "A human?"


    The ghost driver, about to close the door, suddenly realized Qin Nuo''s identity and was momentarily stunned.


    A human, in the dead of night, taking a bus in the Horror World.


    This was too audacious!


    The ghost driver quickly calmed his shock.


    There are only two types of humans who would do this.


    One is a Half-Ghost.


    The other carries some kind of terrifying ghost creature.


    In any case, they have a trump card and aren''t afraid of ghosts causing trouble.


    The ghost driver, having driven the bus for years, understood this logic, though he frowned, clearly disliking humans on his bus, then closed the door and started the bus.


    There weren''t many passengers on the bus.


    A couple.


    An old man.


    And a passenger wrapped up like a Mummy.


    Inside the bus, there was no human aura, clearly all ghosts.


    They stared intently at Qin Nuo, their eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and suspicion.


    The scent of a human wafted into their nostrils like the fragrant aroma of delicious food, stirring the hunger within them.


    However, none of them acted rashly.


    A person walking alone on the streets of the Horror World at night was likely not someone to be trifled with.


    No matter how much their hunger gnawed at them, they restrained themselves.


    "That box."


    Suddenly, the Mummy ghost sitting at the back spoke, uttering four words.


    Only then did the other ghosts notice the box in Qin Nuo''s hands, and their eyes lit up, revealing a greed even more intense than when they saw a human.


    "A precious ingredient!"


    Qin Nuo frowned.


    He hadn''t expected these ghosts to focus on the box.


    The bus suddenly stopped; it had reached a station.


    "Blood Street, passengers getting off, please take your belongings with you. The next stop is..."


    The door opened.


    No passengers got off, and none got on.


    The atmosphere inside the bus grew increasingly tense.


    Suddenly, the male from the couple stood up and walked towards Qin Nuo.


    His expression was pale, yet exuded a sickly greed, much like a drug addict high on substances.


    As he approached Qin Nuo, his face twisted grotesquely, as if worms were crawling under his skin, and the sound he made was like his vocal cords being torn: "Human, the box..."


    Before he could finish, Qin Nuo coldly said, "Get lost!"


    The man''s eyes red with anger, being humiliated by a human for the first time.


    But the more it was like this, the more he feared.


    He struggled for a moment but eventually retreated to his seat.


    Soon, the bus reached another station.


    This time, a few more ghosts boarded.


    When they saw Qin Nuo, they were momentarily stunned.


    Then, they noticed the box, their eyes filled with the same greed.


    As several stops passed, the number of passengers increased.


    And all their gazes were fixed on Qin Nuo''s position by the window.


    Those eyes were like a pack of hungry wolves eyeing a fat sheep on the chopping block.


    If it weren''t for Qin Nuo''s strong mental fortitude, an ordinary person would have been scared out of their wits by now!


    "Everyone, I assume you''re all interested in that box?"


    At this moment, the Mummy ghost at the back spoke again.


    It looked at Qin Nuo with a sinister smile: "No matter how powerful a human is, they can''t overpower a group of ghosts. If we all attack together, tear this kid apart first, then we can divide what''s in the box one by one. How about it?"


    "If word got out that a human scared all the ghosts on a bus into not daring to make a move, it would be a huge joke!"


    The Mummy ghostughed.


    It had its eyes on the box too.


    But it didn''t dare to act alone, so it started inciting everyone to act together.


    Because of the Mummy ghost''s words, many passengers were itching to move.


    This tense atmosphere only needed a spark to ignite.


    The Mummy ghost secretly smirked, knowing its goal was achieved. Now it just needed a few more voices to agree, and the passengers would swarm towards Qin Nuo.


    Seeing the restless passengers, Qin Nuo felt uneasy.


    He had intended to rely on the Blood-Eyed Ghost to intimidate these ghosts until the next stop.


    Now, due to the Mummy ghost''s incitement, the situation seemed to be spiraling out of control.


    Honestly, if these passengers all rushed at him, he doubted the Blood-Eyed Ghost could protect him.


    Now Qin Nuo understood.


    Why the Boss Lady said he couldn''t bring back Ingredient No. 8.


    Damn it, this was hotter than a hot potato!


    In front of ghosts, this thing was even more tempting than a human!


    As the situation grew tense, but no ghost dared to be the nail that sticks out,


    Qin Nuo suddenly thought of a n.


    "Brother..."


    The Blood-Eyed Ghost said, "What, you want me to deal with all the ghosts on the bus?"


    "Don''t be delusional, I''m injured now, I don''t have that ability."


    "Take my advice, if you want to live, hand over that ingredient obediently, that way you can make it to the station alive!"


    Qin Nuo ignored the Blood-Eyed Ghost''s words and asked, "That Mummy at the back, can you take it on?"


    "If it''s just one, I can beat it so badly its own mother wouldn''t recognize it," the Blood-Eyed Ghost said.


    "Good, then let''s take it on!"


    Qin Nuo said immediately.


    "Now?"


    "Yes, just that one!"
