I Can Farm Attributes From Ghosts! Chapter 2

Beep, beep, beep, beep…
There was a commotion on the table and everyone looked at each other.
It was midnight and they started moving.
Jesse and the other young man closed the classroom door. Fatty pulled the curtains shakily.
Everything fell into darkness.
People who often walked at night knew that they would not be able to see anything if they suddenly fell into darkness. However, after a while, they would regain some of their vision.
However, the scene in front of them made them feel a little strange.
It was pitch black all around and nothing could be seen.
In order to ensure the authenticity of the mission, the club installed infrared cameras in the classroom in advance. This operation would also be publicly broadcasted by the club.
Logically speaking, he should be able to see the red dot on the camera, but there was no light at all.
As the light source disappeared, everyone became quiet.
"Beep! System evolution complete!"
"Ding! Condition met, activating survival mission."
"Host, please capture a small ghost within the deadline. The deadline is one month. You will receive generous rewards from the system after completing the mission."
There would be rewards and punishments. Brian, who was well-versed in the game, asked the system.
"What if I don't complete the mission?"
"Note: If the mission is not completed within the deadline, the system will automatically leave the host. To prevent the secret of the system from being leaked, the host will be destroyed."
Hearing the first message, Brian did not think much of it, but the following words of the system made his heart turn cold.
What? This was too much risk.
"I don't have any objections if you want to leave, but it's too much to destroy humanity."
Furthermore, what secrets did he know? All he knew was the name of the system. How was that considered confidential?
Brian had no choice but to suffer in silence.

Fortunately, the system was not so inhumane. It gave him a month's time. As long as he completed the mission within a month, he should be fine.
Just as he was rejoicing, he suddenly received another notification.
"System's friendly reminder: The cumulative number of days the host has arrived in the New World has reached 30 days. According to the number of days in January, there are still three hours left until the time limit of the mission is exceeded. Please complete the mission as soon as possible."
"Damn…"
Who said that the system was humane?
In the blink of an eye, the deadline was three hours. This was killing Brian.
Calm down for a moment.
Brian took a deep breath in the darkness. The ghost aura here was so strong, there should be ghosts.
He had not thought of how to subdue the ghosts, but since it concerned his life, there was no time to think about it. When the time came, he would just have to adapt to the situation.
The classroom lit up.
As candles were lit at the four corners of the room, the test began.
"In that case, let's do it."
Unlike the nervous people, Brian was very calm.
The threat of life made him have a strong will to live.
One word, f*ck!
At this moment.
Something touched his shoulder. The furry touch startled Brian.
With the help of the dim candlelight, a slightly fierce-looking face appeared before her eyes.
"Brian, are you ready? Just do what I told you before. Don't panic when you see anything. After completing the mission, I'll treat you to a bar service."
Hey! So it was Jesse.
Jesse patted Brian on the shoulder and gave him a smile that all men understood.
In order for Brian to help him make a fortune in the mission gambling, he had taught Brian all the secrets of passing the test.
Whether he was going to be heaven or hell, it all depended on tonight.

Brian nodded grimly, as if he were giving Jesse and the others an account of what had happened. Or perhaps he was encouraging himself.
"Don't worry. We will complete today's mission no matter what."
If he could not complete the mission given by the system, tonight would be his last.
Jesse and the others did not hear the meaning behind his words and slowly retreated out of the classroom.
Apart from Jesse and the others who were watching through the crack in the door, there were quite a lot of spectators.
Location: Bluefields College's Red Fire Paranormal Society
The paranormal clubs were all made up of students, so their headquarters was located in the school's residential area.
In the lobby of a strangely decorated apartment, dozens of people were staring intently at the big screen in the center. These people were mainly dressed in strange clothes. No one could recognize that they were actually students.
The projector screen was playing the image of Brian on a mission.
Seeing him wake up miraculously after fainting, everyone was filled with anticipation for the live broadcast.
After Jesse and the others walked out of the classroom, snowflakes suddenly appeared on the screen like a malfunction. Many snowflakes formed a huge skull, and a very ear-piercing sound wave resounded through the apartment, as if the devil was cackling.
Then suddenly, the live broadcast stopped.
"Oh my god, what did I just see?"
"There really is a demon. He's here. He's smiling at me… it's horrible."
"This is definitely a dream. I swear I've never done anything wrong."
"Dream on. What do you mean by pinching my thigh?"
Panic quickly spread and the scene was in chaos.
…
"Quiet! The president is here."
Upon hearing this, the noisy atmosphere was slightly suppressed.
A graceful figure walked down the stairs.
"Haha! My dear friends, are you scared?"
Celia smiled as if she had gotten her way.
"I was just joking with everyone just now. If you are really scared, it means that you guys have to be more courageous!"
Only after hearing this explanation did the crowd quiet down.
"Oh right, there's a small problem with the live broadcast system. I've sent someone to check it. Please calm down."
As the president of the paranormal club, after Celia calmed everyone down, she began to systematically arrange for people to check the equipment.
But was this really a prank? Celia's sexy brows drew together.
Seeing everyone's reaction, the pretty president's harsh methods were evident.
It was said that someone in Celia's family was a high-ranking military official. She had grown up in the military compound since she was a child, so she had been influenced by the swift and decisive style of the military. She was very tough when handling matters.
In addition, she had an extraordinary background that no one dared to provoke in the campus.
After a while, a member of the club walked up.
"President Celia, the equipment has been inspected by maintenance personnel. Everything is normal."
"Is everything normal? Then what is the reason…"
There was something fishy about this. Celia quickly took out her phone and contacted the operators, intending to cancel this mission.
Beep beep beep!
"I'm sorry, the number you have dialed is uncontactable. Please try again later. Please leave a message after pressing #. I'm sorry, the…"
After making a few consecutive calls and failing to get through, Celia smelled something unusual.
Although she was the president of the paranormal club, she did not believe in ghosts and gods. Her original intention was to tell everyone that demons and ghosts did not exist.
However, the strange situation were out of her expectations.

After spending an unsavory amount of time in hell, our protagonist finally manages to escape the place that had kept him captive for so long... again. Unfortunately, even after plotting and planning for years, he ends up in a place not much different from the burning and agonizing Tartarus he once had to call home. Guts, blood, and carnage start to reign over Earth as soon as he set foot in it, much to his dismay. What use is it to cry over spilled milk, though? Tired of the monotony of endless torture, he steps into the world intending to have as much fun as possible. While others might try to raid the Orc Lord with as many people as possible, why not challenge him to an arm-wrestling tournament? The power of friendship will surely be on his side. Why hide from the big, bad wolf in one of your houses if wearing camo in plain sight should have the same effect?

Long Shadow
No destiny, no choice, no hope. Our protagonist, a coward summoned to a world meant for heroes; a new world with new rules and old cruelties. Join him on his adventures as he must deal with menus, monsters, and mysteries in this litrpg fantasy. Thomas Goodwill was an average boy with an average life, all that changed when he woke up in a new reality. Now, out of his depth, damn near out of his mind, he must learn to survive in a game-like reality with no reloads, checkpoints, or save scumming. He does, however, have a drunk snake. Thank you for reading my first story, hopefully, the first of many to come. This will be my main story and is meant to help me practice and hone my skills as I slowly produce more complex ideas. It's a litrpg in which I want to only lightly focus on the mechanics as I don’t want to pad out the word count with math and number tables and while I want to add a few of my own twists here and there, overall I’m going to keep this story close to generic as possible so that I don't let my inexperience lead me into a corner. Thanks again to all willing to leave a review or some constructive criticism, without you I'd never improve. Unfortunately, Cover art is by me.
