“This is an ancient Egyptian-style sun boat!”

Jin Yingzhen walked to the side of the ship and glanced down.

This wooden ship is over seventy meters long and over thirty meters wide, with two levels.

At the back of the upper level, there is a cabin and a useless sail, because the power of this sun boat comes from slaves.

The lower level has narrow and cramped cabins, where slaves with shackles sit in rows, rowing with all their strength.

There are many oars on both sides of the sun boat, which look like the legs of a centipede, quite disgusting.

This kind of ship can no longer be described as simple, only primitive.

Compared to the sailboats of the Age of Discovery, this sun boat is like a dwarf with leprosy compared to a stunning beauty.

It’s so ugly.

“The rest of you, search the entire ship and see if there are any important clues.”

Xia Hongyao arranged and looked at Lin Baici: “I have a feeling that there might be a ‘murder on a lonely boat’ happening?”

If that’s the case, this level is easy.

With myself, Lin Baici, and Gu Qingqiu, the three great detectives present, there is no murder case that can stump us!

“You’ve watched too much Sherlock Holmes, haven’t you?”

Hua Yueyu found it funny how Hongyao talked, and she seemed to have gone crazy wanting to play a great detective.

“Humans, halt!”

A majestic voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone’s nerves immediately tightened, and they turned to look at the cabin at the back of the ship.

The cabin door opened, and a monster walked out.

It is about two meters tall, with a sturdy physique. Judging from its body features, it should be male, but its head is that of a wolf.

Sharp teeth, erect ears.

Its eyes are like emeralds, shining with ferocious and bloody light.

“Judging from its appearance, it should be Anubis, the god of death in ancient Egypt!”

Jin Yingzhen explained.

This Anubis is wearing a white linen short skirt, barefoot, with several gold rings on the ankles and wrists.

Its upper body is not wearing any clothing, only intricate gold jewelry, and a golden crown on its head.

Lin Baici’s gaze fell on its hand.

This monster with a wolf head is holding a seven-foot-long golden scepter.

At the top of the scepter is a circular golden ring, with a fist-sized ball of light in the middle, emitting a radiant light. Around the golden ring, there are seven metal spikes that are as long as a middle finger and radiate outwards.

“This is a sun boat that sails away from the land of death!”

Anubis’s indifferent gaze swept over everyone: “It can bring you a new life, but to board it, you need a pure body and a beautiful soul!”

Upon hearing this, Hua Yueyu muttered softly, “Then I qualify!”

I have been single since birth, and as for the soul, I have donated two hundred thousand winter clothes and books to impoverished children in mountainous areas. Shouldn’t that be considered beautiful?

Among the crowd, a few people have done some despicable or guilty things, and now their faces have turned pale.

“Xiba!”

Jin Yingzhen cursed softly.

She has a pure body, but as for this soul…

Growing up in a wealthy family, Jin Yingzhen learned from a young age how to scheme and manipulate with money and power.

Occasionally bullying a school bully, forcing them to drop out, making teachers obey, turning a blind eye to her own truancy…

These things are not considered good, and Jin Yingzhen has done them a lot.

“Can it be that simple?”

Xia Hongyao was puzzled. She thought she was a good person, and according to the requirements of this monster, she should pass.

“Come on, show your beautiful souls!”

Anubis urged.

Everyone looked around and found that no one moved, and finally they all looked at Lin Baici.

Lin Dashen, you go first!

But almost everyone felt that Lin Baici was not qualified.

With so many people looking at Lin Baici, it naturally caught Anubis’s attention. It looked at Lin Baici and asked, “Human, do you want to be the first?”

[The god of death helms the sun boat sailing on the River Styx. If the passengers cannot pay the fare, they will be thrown into the river!]

[Although the distance between the two banks of this river seems short, those who fall into the water will never reach the shore!]

[Once you board the thief’s ship, be prepared to be beaten by the thief!]

The comment from the God of Gluttony made Lin Baici’s heart sink. It seems that this divine taboo game is not going to be easy.

“I need to prepare a bit more!”

Lin Baici smiled faintly. The so-called showing a beautiful soul is just a euphemism for paying the fare.

Seeing that even the powerful Lin Baici is so cautious, everyone became vigilant. The ten or so people who were confident that they met the requirements also gave up the idea of immediately clearing the level.

Let’s wait a bit longer!

Together with Lin Dashen.

They thought it was beautiful, but Anubis didn’t give them that time.

“My ship can only carry one hundred passengers. The extras will be thrown into the River Styx!”After Anubis finished speaking, he crossed his legs and floated magically in the air.

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

They looked around. Although many people had died since the appearance of God’s Ruins, there were still nearly two hundred people present.

This meant that about half of them would be eliminated.

“Gasp, a death rate of fifty percent!”

Xia Hongyao leaned close to Lin Baici’s ear and said, “Should we just charge in?”

“I advise you to be cautious!”

Gu Qingqiu interjected, “Have you all overlooked a certain issue regarding purity of body and beauty of soul? Is the evaluation of this monster the same as that of humans?”

“What if, in its eyes, only promiscuous prostitutes and wicked bandit kings meet the criteria?”

Lin Baici glanced at the girl who spoke.

Her thinking was quite meticulous.

Because of the comments from the God of Gluttony, Lin Baici knew that the condition for passing was to pay the fare, so he hadn’t forgotten to consider this aspect.

According to the normal process, Gu Qingqiu’s reasoning was necessary.

“Could it be?”

Hua Yueyu was astonished. “If that’s the case, then no one would qualify.”

“Heh, do you think this monster belongs to the kind and lawful camp?”

Gu Qingqiu retorted.

“…..”

Hua Yueyu couldn’t answer, but it seemed that the monsters in God’s Ruins were not good beings. Even the Queen Scorpion, who could communicate, ate people.

“Queen, what do you think?”

Gu Qingqiu looked at the scorpion-like creature.

“No comment!”

The Queen Scorpion couldn’t speak. It was an unspoken agreement among neighbors. Whoever broke it and helped outsiders would be attacked by the group.

“Lin, what do you think we should do?”

“Do you have any clues?”

“Should we let someone who meets the conditions try?”

Everyone gathered around Lin Baici, waiting for him to make a decision.

“I think it probably wants the fare!”

Lin Baici revealed, “Everyone should prepare some valuable things!”

“The fare?”

Everyone looked confused, and a few with dark thoughts suspected that Lin Baici was hinting for them to give him gifts.

“You have already ridden the boat for five minutes for free!”

Anubis spoke with an annoyed expression, “If you don’t show a beautiful soul soon, I will throw you all off!”

Still, no one moved, all eyes were on Lin Baici.

“Don’t just look at Xiaobai!”

Hua Yueyu stopped them, worried that their actions would draw the monster’s attention to Lin Baici.

“That’s right, stop looking!”

Jin Yingzhen warned.

Unfortunately, fearing something would happen, Anubis focused on Lin Baici. “You go first and prove it, or I will throw you off!”

Lin Baici was calculating the minimum fare for this monster and hadn’t spoken yet, but the Queen Scorpion had already spoken for him.

“It is the father of my child.”

That sentence was enough to represent that Lin Baici and the monsters were on the same side.

“So what? Even if it’s not it, you still have to prove it!”

Anubis sneered.

“Are you sure?”

The Queen Scorpion stared back without weakness. The golden scorpion hook on its tail shimmered brilliantly in the afternoon sunlight.

Anubis’s face darkened because it realized that this neighbor wasn’t joking. “Are you going against me for a human?”

The implication of this sentence was that if the Queen Scorpion gave up on Lin Baici, it wouldn’t charge the fare and would carry the Queen Scorpion across the River Styx to meet the Pharaoh.

“I want a group of powerful children!”

The Queen Scorpion was also a boss and didn’t want to be taken advantage of.

“Fine, for the sake of our neighborly relationship, I will spare this human!”

The boss compromised.

“What the f*ck, is this even possible?”

Everyone was envious.

Did Lin Baici “charm” this scorpion monster?

Otherwise, why would it speak up for him?

But with this girlfriend, Lin Baici probably wouldn’t dare to cheat, right?

“Thank you!”

Although Lin Baici didn’t need the Queen Scorpion’s help, he still accepted the favor.

“If you want to thank me, then work hard to give me some powerful offspring!”

The Queen Scorpion looked forward to it.

By then, the children could conquer the world and establish a great Scorpion Empire.

“……”

Lin Baici was somewhat worried. This was really difficult to accomplish.

“You, come and prove it!”

The boss pointed at a petite girl after being slighted by the Queen Scorpion. It was very unhappy, so it extended its scepter and pointed at her.

It seemed that no one would stand up for her this time, right?

“I… I am an O-type girl. I… I have picked up a cellphone and returned it to its owner.”

This girl stammered and started crying.

She was a sophomore at Haijing Normal University.

She was now very grateful that she hadn’t agreed when her boyfriend wanted to take their relationship to the next level, otherwise, she wouldn’t be pure anymore.

“What a mess!”Anubis’s face turned dark: “You, disqualified!”

After it finished speaking, it slammed the staff on the ground.

Doot!

A golden light burst open, forming a magic array. Four small calves-sized Hu Lang wolves appeared from the deck of the wooden ship, barking wildly and charging towards the girl.

“Lin Dashen, help!”

The girl cried in fear, rushing towards Lin Baici in a panic.

“Give it money!”

Lin Baici advised.

“Huh?”

The girl was confused, what does that mean?

“I said give it money, give it everything valuable on you!”

Lin Baici repeated.

“Oh! Oh!”

The girl understood and quickly took off her small shoulder bag, pleading to Anubis, “I’ll give you everything, my wallet, phone, bank cards, everything!”

“……”

Everyone was confused.

Give money?

What kind of operation is this?

Isn’t it about whether the body is pure and the soul is beautiful?

They thought that Lin Baici might be trying to find a way out of a desperate situation.

But what surprised them was that after Anubis heard the girl’s words, it slammed the staff on the deck.

Thud!

The four Hu Lang wolves rushed to the girl, stopped in front of her, and circled around her. One of them opened its big mouth and bit the girl’s shoulder bag, then ran back to Anubis.

The girl looked at the three Hu Lang wolves wearing golden armor, her legs went weak, and she sat down on the ground with a thud.

Anubis opened the shoulder bag and looked inside.

“Poor!”

Anubis muttered, but still took the bag and then looked at another young man.

“Did it just say ‘poor’?”

Hua Yueyu was astonished. This way of passing the test was very different from what she had expected!

“Is this passing the test?”

Jin Yingzhen was overjoyed. Giving money?

I’m good at this!

I may not have anything else, but I have money.

Jin Yingzhen breathed a sigh of relief.

“Am I… am I safe now?”

The girl asked, looking pitifully at Lin Baici.

“Yes!”

Lin Baici nodded, looking at the young man who was targeted by the Hu Lang wolves.

“This is my phone!”

Since phones could be used for payment, this young man only carried a phone when going out. So the most valuable thing on him was this thing.

“Are you kidding me?”

Anubis roared, looking at the phone with disdain.

The young man had used it for too long, the phone was full of scratches, and the screen was slightly cracked. It was probably not even worth collecting as scrap.

“I… I…”

The young man panicked when he realized he couldn’t pass the test, looking at everyone, “Can someone lend me some money? I’ll pay it back immediately when I get out!”

No one responded. First of all, no one knew if lending money to this young man would attract the attention of this monster. Secondly, who could guarantee that they had enough money on them?

Most people didn’t have the habit of carrying a wallet anymore.

They were all worried at the moment.

Damn it!

What about the need for a pure body and a beautiful soul?

It’s all bullshit!

It’s just an excuse to get money.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Lin Baici, unexpectedly he guessed it right again.

The Hunter of Gods, so terrifying.

“Please lend me some money!”

The young man was desperate.

“Look at his appearance and the condition of this thing called a phone, it must be very poor, right?”

The Scorpion Queen advised Lin Baici, “Don’t lend him, he definitely won’t be able to pay it back.”

“……”

Jin Yingzhen felt sorry for this young man, even the monster thought he was not capable.

[The boat fare cannot be too little. At the last moment, the ten people who paid the least fare will be left behind on this Sun Ship!]

[The boat fare cannot be too much either, otherwise, this greedy monster will target them and kill them for their money!]

Comment from the Gourmet God.

Lin Baici originally wanted to help this young man, after all, he had a lot of supplies in his black altar bowl. But after hearing this, he gave up.

It would be inviting trouble.

Xia Hongyao opened her backpack, preparing to lend some money to the young man.

“Don’t help!”

Lin Baici stopped her.

“Yeah, we don’t even know if it will be enough!”

Hua Yueyu was annoyed. If they had known they would encounter this money-grubbing monster, they should have brought more valuable items with them today.

“It’s not because of that. Helping others will cause problems!”

Lin Baici explained in a low voice, “When giving things to it, look at how much others give and keep it at a moderate level. Don’t give too much!”

Anubis didn’t have the patience to wait for the young man to borrow money. Since it wanted to use this as a lesson for others, this was just right. So it slammed the staff.

Thud!

The four Hu Lang wolves immediately rushed towards the young man.

Seeing this, the young man turned and ran, but how could he outrun the four-legged Hu Lang wolves? Within ten meters, he was caught up.

The four Hu Lang wolves began to tear and bite him.

“Help! Help!”

The young man shouted a few times, but he was bitten on the throat and couldn’t make any sound.In less than a minute, his body was torn to shreds by four wolves, blood splattering all over the ground.

Anubis then turned its gaze to a middle-aged man wearing glasses.

He immediately gave everything he could.

“This belt of mine is from Hermès, it’s very valuable!” The middle-aged man explained.

It was actually a fake, but he thought this monster wouldn’t know.

Anubis was pleased with the man’s attitude. After the wolves brought over the fare, it specifically picked up the belt, examined it carefully, and then tied it around its waist.

“……”

Everyone didn’t know what to say.

The situation was clear now, give money and live. So, everyone took off what they had and offered it to the monster.

Some people, worried that they gave too little and would be targeted, even stripped off their clothes.

Among them were several women who stripped down to their underwear.

“What the hell, do we really have to go this far?” Cai Wenqi cursed. As a girl from an ordinary family, how much money could she have?

Apart from her phone, which she had just bought during the holidays, the most expensive thing she had was a lipstick worth one hundred and fifty yuan, and it was a gift from someone else.

“I wonder if it will be enough to satisfy that monster’s appetite?” Cai Wenqi was still worried when she noticed someone stuffing something into her hand.

She quickly looked down.

It was Lin Baici, handing her a phone.

“Thank you!” Cai Wenqi was moved.

“Shh!” Lin Baici signaled Cai Wenqi to keep quiet.

Everyone had handed over their fare. Hua Yueyu gave her phone, a bunch of cosmetics, a GoPro sports camera, and an iPad.

Jin Yingzhen didn’t have that many small items. Her necklace alone was worth millions, and her luxury watch was still on Lin Baici’s wrist.

Lin Baici was worried that Jin Yingzhen’s extravagance would attract Anubis’s attention, but the problem was, Jin Yingzhen really didn’t have any cheap items.

The things Xia Hongyao gave were average and unremarkable.

Anubis looked at the pile of items in front of it and nodded, “I see your beautiful souls, but…”

Anubis raised its head, its gaze sweeping over the crowd, “There are a few people who do not respect me. Their souls are flawed!”

Everyone panicked. What did that mean?

They didn’t pass?

Anubis began to call out names, “You, you, you… you are not qualified to board my ship!”

A total of ten people were called out.

Gu Qingqiu had a good memory and observation skills. She knew that the items these ten people offered were of the lowest value.

“Do you want to jump off the ship yourselves, or let the wolves tear you apart?” Anubis asked.

The ten unlucky ones who were called out had faces of despair. Being torn apart by wolves meant certain death, it was better to jump into the river and take a chance!

The surface of the river was calm, and the solar boat was not too far from the shore, they could swim across.

“It seems that it was bluffing when it said it would only take a hundred people. As long as you pay, you can board this ship!” Xia Hongyao sighed, she couldn’t save these ten people, “Jump off the ship!”
