I Don't Agree to the Terms-Chapter 1128 - 593: Power and the Enchanting Magic Ring

"You don't seem surprised at all?" Gu Shanhai curiously looked at the large shadowy figure seated on the throne.

At this moment, Gu Shanhai was on one of the dual-star celestial bodies, the Hunting Star, but it wasn't his true self, just a projection.

He wouldn't risk bringing his true self over; that would be seeking death.

"Since you last affected the Ash Mark of a small squad, I knew you would come." The Hunter King's tone was very calm, observing Gu Shanhai's projection without much fluctuation.

To Gu Shanhai, it felt as though the other party was an eternally tireless robot.

"I see, you are indeed quite extraordinary." In Gu Shanhai's view, the Hunter King was just another Ash Mark. The difference was that he was a large Mark, while other Ghost Hunters were smaller ones.

As long as the Hunter King was alive, the entire Ghost Hunter clan wouldn't perish.

"So, is there something you need from me?" The Hunter King recognized the strength of Gu Shanhai, a powerful entity they couldn't currently hunt.

Hunters would never think of hunting a beast they couldn't capture.

Fighting spirit? There's no such thing. A hunter's essence is to hunt animals for wealth or food, not like a warrior or a protagonist-type hunter.

Every time the Ghost Hunters hunted formidable beings, they would use swarm tactics, traps, ambushes, and so on. As long as they succeeded, nothing else mattered.

So after realizing Gu Shanhai's strength far exceeded his own and that of the Ghost Hunters, the Hunter King abandoned his original hunting idea.

"There's something, do you know about fingernails?" Gu Shanhai didn't conceal his intentions.

Upon hearing this, the Hunter King furrowed his brow and then extended his hand to ask, "Do you mean these fingernails?"

"Sort of. You know the Elf Clan, right? They can traverse worlds because of fingernails."

"But not the ones on their hands, it's something in their bloodline."

Gu Shanhai briefly described the situation.

This made the Hunter King fall into a long silence, seemingly pondering.

Gu Shanhai did not interrupt his thoughts and waited quietly.

Nearly half an hour later, the Hunter King finally spoke, "Unfortunately, I know, but I forgot, and couldn't recall it."

"???" Gu Shanhai was flustered; wasn't this akin to playing a joke on him?

He waited half an hour, and you say you know, but can't remember.

Gu Shanhai even contemplated throwing a brick at the Hunter King's forehead to see if it would help restore his memory physically.

"I can vaguely recall that it's a ship."

Fortunately, the Hunter King continued, speaking.

"A ship? Well, it's barely a clue."

"However, there's another matter. Besides the Elf Clan, every world collective has individuals with fingernails. Judging by their shape, they seem to belong to humans."

"So theoretically, all living beings in the world collective can traverse worlds."

"What are your thoughts?" Gu Shanhai asked.

"If you had visited before the Dual-star Celestial Body completed a hundred revolutions, I might recall. But now, I'm sorry, many memories have gradually faded over time."

"After all, it was too long ago, and I'm not me; I don't know much."

The Hunter King made no demands or conceals and was very straightforward in his explanation.

"Wait, you're not you?" Gu Shanhai caught the key point.

The memories had already vanished; there was no retrieving them. However, the issue of him not being him might hold some clues.

"Yes, I seem not to be myself. As for my origins, it's unclear to me." The Hunter King said helplessly.

It wasn't a big secret; even if Gu Shanhai knew, it wouldn't be a big deal. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"You're just messing with me..." Gu Shanhai couldn't help but retort, wasn't this pure nonsense?

"However, this might provide some clues." The Hunter King said, removing a gold ring from his hand.

It looked somewhat gaudy and unhesitantly tossed it to Gu Shanhai.

Gu Shanhai caught the ring, his face filled with doubt.

"This ring doesn't seem to have any problems." Gu Shanhai examined it, noticing that it once had carvings of some patterns or texts, but were now destroyed for some unknown reason.

"I've forgotten its name, but once you wear the ring, you have the power to control the supreme authority of the world."

"Of course, that was in the past, and perhaps there was some exaggeration involved. Now, it's just a ring that can enchant minds."

The Hunter King said calmly.

"What kind of ridiculous setting is this? Feels like a Supreme Magic Ring to me." Gu Shanhai also sensed the mind-bewitching curse, seemingly due to craftsmanship rather than the material itself.

"Anyone who wears it shall die an unnatural death."

Gu Shanhai said calmly.

He had encountered such curses before.

As for why the Hunter King didn't die wearing it, naturally, it was because the Hunter King was not a human.

"You see through it? Well, if you need it, it's yours." The Hunter King said calmly, knowing that Gu Shanhai wouldn't be affected, so he gave it away.

If it were an ordinary person, they would first be ensnared, desperately wanting the ring, and eventually die due to the curse.
