“It’s kind of like throwing pearls to swine; my level won’t increase quickly, but I should be fine using it as a bodyguard and handling some chores.”

“Sorry, I didn’t know that,” replied Gold Coin Dog immediately to Qin Muye.

“Wait, I’ve turned into a Prince Charming now. What if I meet Snow White later?”

“Of course, my master,” declared the Gold Coin Dog, his voice like thunder, causing the whole room to seem a bit unstable.

“Got what we came for, time to head out.”

“Yes, I understand,” Qin Muye said as he took the lighter back and emotionlessly watched the now obedient and respectful Gold Coin Dog.

“Plus, I think, Snow White is kind of lame. Wouldn’t choosing the evil queen be better? I could directly seize a kingdom. Then Snow White would have to call me ‘daddy.’ And even if she found a prince, I’d be the father-figure, and I could use the relationship to make the prince’s kingdom mine too.”

“Damn~ Her title is Snow White, goddamnit, not Cocaine Princess. Where has my fairytale gone?” Qin Muye suddenly recalled that this Snow White wasn’t dealing in Los Angeles or Miami, she didn’t have seven assassins, nor did she send her stepmother to take the blame; her story merely involved making her stepmother dance in red-hot iron shoes until she died.

“Barrier or sealing, it seems the most precious things here must be the three boxes of currency.”

“It’s a pity there’s a limit.”

“That Prince Charming isn’t much good either, probably a necrophiliac,” Qin Muye quipped.

“Can you talk?” Qin Muye asked.

“Are you loyal to me or the lighter?” Qin Muye posed the critical question.

“Tell me about the origins of this thing,” Qin Muye said, holding the old lighter.

“I like fairy tales.”

“I don’t know, master,” said the Gold Coin Dog. “Ever since I was born, my sole purpose has been to guard this box of gold coins and obey my master’s commands.”

“Now, a serious issue lies before me—how do I get in there?”

“Tsk, indeed a powerful weapon, but this first Copper Coin Dog’s strength is a bit lacking, even below my rank.”

“Thinking about it, these two princesses seem pretty fierce too.”

[Rank: Advanced]

[The second rub will summon a Silver Coin Dog to serve you, whose overall strength is equal to your rank (minimum Second Rank, maximum Fifth Rank)]

[The third rub will summon a Gold Coin Dog to serve you, whose overall strength is higher than yours by one rank (minimum Second Rank, maximum Fifth Rank)]

[The first rub will summon a Copper Coin Dog to serve you, whose overall strength is one rank lower than yours (minimum Second Rank, maximum Fifth Rank)]

[Old Lighter]

[Attribute]

Is the Fourth Rank strong? His subordinate Dragon Blood Spirit Monster is also of Fourth Rank.

Like some witch who tricked him into coming here.

And Qin Muye didn’t notice any problems either; it seemed as though it had always been this way, not like it had transformed from a coin engraved with the Death God Pattern.

But it’s worth a try, otherwise his journey would have been wasted.

However, the current Gold Coin Dog isn’t likely to be of the Fourth Rank—probably closer to Fifth Rank, else he wouldn’t possess such power.

From the Gold Coin Dog’s responses, it seems that he also didn’t know anything except his own responsibilities.

They are called princesses, after all. If not politics, what else can they play? They can’t just be naive and sweet.

The one he is loyal to is neither him nor the lighter but rather the person who holds the lighter.

On the other hand, the rank and bloodline of the other party are quite useful, and Qin Muye plans to borrow them for a while.

More importantly, there’s also a Hero of the Fourth Rank, but he is tied up with advancement tasks; otherwise, he would also be of the Fourth Rank.

Even more crucial is the other party’s responsibilities. Protecting the currency in the box is the primary responsibility, and only secondary is obedience to commands.

After plucking out the crystals from its eyes, the Gold Coin Dog did not fill the room with malice like before, but rather appeared completely subdued, wagging his tail and sticking out his tongue. If he weren’t so large, he would probably have tried to nuzzle up to Qin Muye.

Looking into it, he suddenly realized it doesn’t seem very useful.

When leaving, Qin Muye discovered that the three dogs couldn’t leave the room unless he summoned them using the fire starter; otherwise, it was as if they were bound within the room.

Without the main character’s aura, some extraordinary things would have to wait until he completed the instance task.

Meanwhile, Qin Muye asked the Gold Coin Dog several questions, as well as the Copper Coin Dog and the Silver Coin Dog, but their answers were all identical and genuinely ignorant, so he had to ask someone who knew.

Seizing the opportunity, Qin Muye directly entered the room.

Qin Muye sized up the Gold Coin Dog and then continued, “Tell me about your origins.”

Qin Muye’s mind wandered, feeling that Princess Snow White really lacked competitive edge.

Qin Muye found that indeed, those who play politics are ruthless; just kill them directly, no need for these tricks.

Qin Muye went straight to the treasure box, opened it, and found it full of gold coins with the Death God Pattern, which turned into ordinary gold coins upon handling.

Looking at the old fire starter, its effects were almost like a Divine Artifact. He was now at the third rank and could summon a fourth rank Gold Coin Dog. Couldn’t he…

Qin Muye said and placed the fire starter back in its place. The previously submissive Gold Coin Dog’s expression instantly changed, becoming fierce and vicious once again, about to attack Qin Muye.

The dogs can’t recognize a master; whoever has the fire starter, the dogs will be loyal to that person.

In terms of power, they are just about the same as the average soldier, certainly not matching up to a Hero.

That’s good enough.

To be honest, these dogs are rather superfluous for Qin Muye’s territory.

So even if people die, they might revive just because of a tear, it’s not unheard of – didn’t the fairytale princess connect with the prince because of an apple?

So now Qin Muye values more the control the fire starter exerts over these three dogs and their special characteristics.

He also realized that he is now the Prince Charming, though he really wanted to be the King Boss, but the skill only dug a hole, retaining “Prince” as the title, not “King Boss.”

He also wanted to turn these dogs into crystal statues with the Red Prison Element, but the problem is these dogs are too far beyond the specifications, it might not work.

He also considered exploiting a bug, using the identity of the fire starter’s owner to fetch currency, but then thought, what if there’s a logical conflict and things get super awkward?

He vaguely remembered that these dogs could speak.

Tian Qi should make things much more relaxed; despite their size, their strength caps at a level 5, no more than that.

Suddenly, a flash of Spiritual Light sparked in Qin Muye’s mind.

One would think too, Horror Universe still maintained logic, what logic do fairytales need?

The effect is quite good; the layer of crystal over the eyes is about to be peeled off.

Otherwise, if it affected the final evaluation, wouldn’t that be awkward? He’s really hoping to snag some Special Building Blueprints.

Luckily Qin Muye isn’t reliant on these three dogs; he figured Demon Blood should be able to kill the Gold Coin Dog.

A layer of Crimson crystals kept covering the dog’s eyes, followed by a horrific bark. The dog blocking the door was also retreating, visibly in severe pain.

After all, what a soldier can take, he isn’t necessarily able to handle.

This third dog is really big, its eyes blocking the door, so he couldn’t enter; he did punch the dog’s eyes, but it was like punching a steel plate, the other party was fine, but Qin Muye was in significant pain.

The room is truly large; he also got a clear view of the full appearance of this third dog it’s really huge and genuinely strong. But as its eyes were covered with crystallizing pain attacking its pain nerves, it had no time to bother with Qin Muye and kept scratching its eyes with paws instead.

This statement caused the Gold Coin Dog to hesitate for a moment, then it said, “Loyal to you, Master.”

The greatest value here is the fire starter; next is the variable gold coins. As for the three dogs, they are merely derivatives of the fire starter. With it, one can summon and control the three dogs, so it naturally doesn’t matter.

This is the core logic, so Qin Muye’s interest in the Gold, Silver, and Copper Coin Dogs immediately dropped significantly.

This time’s task difficulty clearly surpassed the last one in the Horror Universe, probably with a higher World Energy Level.

The more he thought about it, the more he realized fairytales are only suitable as stories; if they became reality, they would be as bizarre as they could get.

If he really became the King Boss, he would have it easier, even if fairytales don’t have KTV, it doesn’t mean he can’t act like a playboy.

But now, even if it’s taken off, it’s too late, Qin Muye has already got the fire starter.

The sequence of duties sufficiently displays how useful yet tricky this thing is.
