The girl left with a look of surprise on her face.
She didn't ask Nathan Lin to confirm.
She felt that Nathan Lin wasn't lying.
Nathan Lin didn't think much about it.
If he hadn't acquired the system, he might have considered the girl's suggestion.
In Nathan Lin's view, even without the system, with Coco's 2-star potential... she might already be at the ordinary-grade by now.
Forming a team with this girl would be a good fit.
However, with the system, Nathan Lin had already taken off.
Even though this girl was a typical "Second-Generation Ghost Tamer," Nathan Lin had long since left her behind.
If he teamed up with her now...
She would just be a typical burden.
Naturally, Nathan Lin wasn't interested in dragging a burden around.
In the communicator, after the last limited-time task issued by the base city of Willow City, no new tasks were posted, but a new message had popped up, inviting the newly graduated Ghost Tamers to go to the schools in the inner city to teach the 14-year-olds who would awaken their Ghost Spirits next year.
Each student who participated would earn 50 Contribution Points.
As expected, many new students from this batch were eager to go.
For these newbies, 50 Contribution Points was quite a lot.
After all, not everyone had the privilege of being a "Second-Generation Ghost Tamer" like that girl.
And at the end of the day, all of them were just 15-year-old teens who had just become Ghost Tamers, still brimming with ambition and a desire to prove themselves, especially in front of their juniors.
Nathan Lin, on the other hand, wasn't interested.
It was just 50 Contribution Points.
Better to rest at the villa, sleep in comfort, and brush through some daily experience.
The Contribution Points from the tasks Nathan Lin completed in the past few days had already been credited.
Now, Nathan Lin had nearly 700 Contribution Points.
There was no need to hustle for 50 Contribution Points.
"Ah, this feels so good."
At the villa, Nathan Lin enjoyed a hot bath in comfort.
During the days spent outside the city, Nathan Lin hadn't had a chance to bathe properly.
The conditions outside the city were much more rudimentary, unlike inside the base city where there was always hot water available.
Out there, if you wanted a bath, you had to heat the water yourself or settle for a cold bath.
After finishing his bath, Nathan Lin walked out wrapped in a towel and saw Coco sitting on the living room couch, gazing out of the window in a daze.
Yes, Nathan Lin had called out to Coco.
When she saw Nathan Lin coming out, Coco turned her head and stared at him blankly.
Her dazed expression looked somewhat cute and naive.
Nathan Lin couldn't help but feel an urge to pinch her cheek.
"Coco must be the cutest spirit," Nathan Lin thought.
In the newbie group, there were plenty of discussions about Ghost Spirits. Some people's spirit objects were funeral garments, and their spirits were old ghost women or old ghost men, giving off an eerie vibe.
That fat guy was even worse—his Ghost Spirit was a half-headed ghost that constantly bled!
Even if Fatty could summon his spirit like Nathan Lin, he probably wouldn't want to see it!
Such spirits... building a bond with them wasn't easy.
Compared to that, Coco was just too cute.
"Coco, come, let me tell you a story~"
In the living room, Nathan Lin cheerfully began to tell Coco a story.
Coco obediently sat beside Nathan Lin.
As night fell, Nathan Lin went to bed early.
That night, Nathan Lin slept particularly well.
When he was outside the city, he never slept soundly.
Because it was far less safe than inside the base city, and Nathan Lin always had to worry about powerful ghosts breaking into the place while he slept.
So, he slept soundly that night and woke up when the sun was already high.
When Nathan Lin woke up, he opened his communicator and saw that the newbie group had exploded with messages.
There were thousands of messages, all about Nathan Lin.
"Wow, I knew it, Brother Lin is amazing! Went out of the city and came back a Level 3 Ghost Tamer without saying a word!"
"Big brother, take me with you~"
"Has Brother Lin gone for certification? I heard after certification, you can join the Ghost Tamer Alliance."
The newbie group was in complete chaos.
Nathan Lin's conversation with the girl from yesterday had apparently leaked out.
Nathan Lin wasn't mad at the girl.
After glancing through the messages in the newbie group, Nathan Lin closed the chat and prepared to see if he could snatch a higher-level task.
Hmm, Nathan Lin was still cautious.
Although Coco's combat power soared in her red dress form, Nathan Lin wasn't planning to take on spirits above the Dangerous-Grade just yet.
The power differences between spirits really start to show at the Dangerous-Grade.
Ordinary (Level 1) and Dangerous (Level 2) spirits have limited methods. For example, the starving ghost from before, though it was scary, didn't have any other attack methods and only tried to swallow people.
However, the difference in abilities between spirits above the Dangerous-Grade (like the Deadly-Grade) was much more significant. Sometimes, a lower-level ghost's abilities could counter the stronger ones, and it was possible that a Dangerous-Grade (Level 3) ghost might be able to deal with a Horror-level (Level 4) ghost.
That's why the girl talked about team-ups.
Nathan Lin felt that Coco's abilities were still fairly well-rounded. She was strong in direct combat, and when in her red dress, she could basically defeat her opponent in one blow.
However, Nathan Lin was still being cautious.
Now that Coco was at the Dangerous-Grade in her normal state, with her combat power surging in red dress form, Nathan Lin thought it shouldn't be much of a problem to take on some Dangerous-Grade ghosts.
"It would be great if there were a task-snatching app."
Nathan Lin opened the task screen in the communicator and couldn't help but think.
However, this time, Nathan Lin was a bit surprised.
Because...
After filtering the Dangerous-Grade tasks, he found... several pages full of Dangerous-Grade ghost tasks.
"So many?"
Nathan Lin quickly refreshed the screen, thinking there might have been an error with his communicator.
Before, every time he refreshed for Dangerous-Grade tasks... there were none, and occasionally one or two would appear but be snatched up instantly.
After refreshing, Nathan Lin found that he hadn't misread.
Compared to before, it was indeed... filled with Dangerous-Grade tasks!
"What's going on? Did all the Ghost Tamers die off? Why aren't they snatching tasks anymore?"
Nathan Lin thought.
