The Ghostly Taming Objects were varied in form. Some were old-fashioned cotton shoes, some were headscarves, hats, and even a ceremonial burial outfit.
These objects were carelessly scattered across tables, as if the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress had tossed them in here without a second thought.
"These Ghostly Taming Objects must still have the ghosts inside, right?" Nathan Lin pondered.
He walked into the room and picked up a round hat that seemed to be for a child, a cartoonish style. He focused and tried to sense anything within it.
Naturally...
Nothing.
As the ghosts that resided in Ghostly Taming Objects grew stronger, they also began to influence their owner. A Ghostly Taming Object would allow its wielder to roughly sense the ghost inside, even without any bond. But at this moment, nothing was registering.
"They must be suppressed by the Ghost Domain," Nathan Lin murmured to himself.
The Bride's Ghost Domain was clearly unique. Any Ghostly Taming Object that entered this place seemed to be "shut down," as if it were out of order. The ghosts inside could only be sensed or summoned if they were released beforehand.
"Coco, cover this hat with your Ghost Domain," Nathan Lin instructed.
Coco obeyed, extending her Ghost Domain but only covering a small portion of the hat. She couldn't expand it too much inside the Bride's domain.
As soon as Coco's Ghost Domain covered the hat, Nathan Lin immediately felt the ghost inside. It was still there. The moment the Ghost Domain's aura stimulated the object, the ghost inside started to stir and appeared.
It was a ghost child.
However, this ghost child was far from as cute as Coco. In fact, it looked like something that would terrify children, the kind that would send them crying in fear.
The ghost child didn't attack immediately. It simply stood there, staring blankly at Nathan Lin.
But before long, the ghost child dashed back into the Ghostly Taming Object.
Coco tugged at Nathan Lin's sleeve, and he turned to see the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress standing in the doorway.
Just as Nathan Lin was preparing to explain himself, she turned and left, as though she had only come to check on the situation.
"She doesn't care about these things," Nathan Lin thought, sensing the situation.
In fact, the casual way in which the Ghostly Taming Objects were thrown around in this room already gave him some clues. The Bride in the Red Wedding Dress clearly had no interest in these objects.
"These Ghostly Taming Objects… they seem like they can still be used," Nathan Lin thought, after observing the ghost child's reaction.
In this world, a child would typically choose a Ghostly Taming Object to carry with them after reaching the age of one hundred days, a companion for life. As long as the ghost was a benevolent spirit, the bond would generally exceed 20 points by the time the child turned fifteen, which was enough for a benevolent spirit.
Once the bond was high, if the Ghost Tamer was killed, the ghost would fight desperately. There were some exceptions, like Ghost Taming Tools (like ghost ropes) that could bind the ghost, but this was of limited use. The ghost would rapidly deteriorate and turn into an Evil Spirit.
Thus, battles between Ghost Tamers almost always required the elimination of the opponent's ghost. In general, battles between Ghost Tamers and ghosts were to the death.
So, no one would attempt to take a seasoned Ghost Tamer's ghost, unless it was from a newly awakened Ghost Tamer with a weak bond.
Just like this time, when the George group had tried to steal Nathan Lin's ghost, thinking his bond with Coco wasn't strong.
But now, an unexpected situation had emerged.
This particular Ghost Domain, with its unique properties, had the ability to suppress Ghostly Taming Objects. Even after the Ghost Tamer had died, the ghost inside the object would remain trapped, unable to escape. These ghosts… had not deteriorated!
Moreover, due to being trapped for so long and separated from their Tamer, the bond between the ghosts and their Tamer was steadily decreasing. While this decline wasn't rapid, over time, the bond would gradually vanish entirely.
The ghost child, in particular, seemed to have become a ghost without a master. It was still a benevolent spirit, but now free from any Tamer's influence.
The ghost child gave Nathan Lin the distinct feeling that it wasn't weak. It seemed to be at the Horror Grade (Level 4).
A Horror Grade (Level 4) benevolent spirit without a master!
"This could sell for a lot of contribution points, right?" Nathan Lin thought, the idea suddenly striking him.
There would be no shortage of buyers.
Those with Spirit Conduits would undoubtedly be interested! Benevolent spirits were different from Evil Spirits. Benevolent spirits had to be raised from a young age. Wild benevolent spirits, especially at the Horror Grade, were nearly non-existent. Even at the Perilous-Grade (Level 3), wild benevolent spirits were a rarity!
Benevolent spirits didn't have the same aggressive tendencies as Evil Spirits. Without a Ghost Tamer, they would simply remain trapped in their Ghostly Taming Objects and wouldn't grow.
Thus, strong, wild benevolent spirits were almost unheard of!
In addition to Spirit Conduits, powerful Ghost Tamers without Spirit Conduits might also find such a ghost tempting.
In any case...
For Nathan Lin, this room full of Ghostly Taming Objects was a real treasure trove. Despite the fact that these objects still technically belonged to the Bride in the Red Wedding Dress, it wouldn't be long before they became his. After all, once the Bride was bound to him, these objects would no longer be of any concern to her.
In short, this was a windfall. At least, he wouldn't have to worry about contribution points for a while!
