My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 216 Basement

Jiang Xinghuo clicked on the detailed introduction of the basement, and related text information popped up immediately.

"This is a story that has been circulating in Dragon City for a long time. It is said that there is a secret room hidden in the basement of Puci Sanatorium, which contains many rare treasures, including treasures that can bring the dead back to life."

"There are even rumors that the secret room contains clues to mythical items."

"For this reason, countless people came here to explore, but no matter how hard they searched, they still couldn't find the basement."

“There are even quite a few underworld creatures. We dug directly outside the sanatorium, but we didn’t find any traces.”

"Now, you have heard the clue about the basement again from this old radio. Perhaps this is your chance."

"But whether you can find this underground secret room depends entirely on your luck and ability."

After reading this game text, Jiang Xinghuo smacked his lips and said that if he was unlucky, he would get a clue to an important task, which might involve a mythical item.

But if you say you are lucky, the clues you got are incoherent. You only know that there is an underground secret room, and you have no idea where to start with anything else.

Moreover, according to the background description of the game text, news about the underground secret room has been circulating in Dragon City for many years, and many monsters from the underworld have come to explore it.

But in the end, I returned empty-handed. I guess the conventional methods are ineffective. If those methods worked, I wouldn't have triggered the clues for this task.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xinghuo decided to continue exploring the sanatorium in depth. Perhaps the clues about the underground secret room were hidden somewhere in this sanatorium.

"Put down the radio in your hand, leave the mail room, and come to the big mirror. The stairs leading to the second floor are behind this mirror."

"However, just as you were about to go to the second floor, you suddenly heard a slight sound. A crack appeared silently on the mirror, and it was spreading."

"What are you going to do next?"

"Will you choose to ignore it and go around the mirror to the second floor? Or will you use the steel gun in your hand to smash the mirror in front of you?"

Two options, bypass or smash.

Looking at the game text that kept popping up, Jiang Xinghuo knew that there must be something fishy, ​​because ever since he entered the sanatorium, the game had been constantly encouraging him to smash the mirror.

But the more the game text says so, the less likely Jiang Xinghuo is to do this. God knows what is behind the mirror!!

Jiang Xinghuo did have some doubts. Perhaps the rumored underground secret room was hidden behind this mirror.

But Jiang Xinghuo didn't want to gamble on this possibility for the time being. Even if the entrance to the underground secret room was really behind the mirror, he would have to wait until he explored the entire sanatorium before deciding whether to smash it or not.

"You seemed not to notice the cracks on the mirror, and walked straight around the big mirror and stepped onto the stairs leading to the second floor."

"Exile, I have to admit that you are a person of firm belief. You can suppress your greed and curiosity. You are destined to go further than others."

"You have escaped a fatal disaster."

"Your luck is worth improving."

"Current luck value: 55%."

"The higher your luck value, the greater the rewards you will get when exploring."

"When your luck reaches 100%, it will cause a qualitative change and you will gain a great opportunity."

"Note: Everyone's initial luck value is 50%, which means fortune and misfortune are interdependent. As for whether it will continue to decline or rise, it all depends on your choice." After seeing the new game terms, Jiang Xinghuo was a little surprised. What unknown thing had he triggered?

Jiang Xinghuo studied it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped paying attention to it and continued with his game.

"You have come to the second floor of the nursing home."

"This is the ward of the nursing home. There are scattered files all over the floor, and there are a lot of dried bloodstains. The mottled walls on both sides are covered with messy bloody handprints."

"You carefully looked at the illusory environment around you, your brain worked quickly, and you gradually deduced what happened here that year."

"It must have been a very fierce battle, or a one-sided massacre. The underworld creatures living here had almost no power to resist and were killed by the murderer."

Jiang Xinghuo felt a little puzzled. Wasn't it said that even the Lord of the Underworld and Fengdu didn't want to mess with this sanatorium?
Who dares to kill here?
But on second thought, it didn't seem to be a problem. The previous game text said that the ghosts and gods were unwilling to provoke the sanatorium, not that they dared not provoke the sanatorium.

As long as their core interests are not affected, they will naturally not tear their relations apart to do those things. But if their core interests are affected, some things may become unpredictable.

At this time, new changes also appeared in the game text.

"You are wandering in the dark corridor, and suddenly you hear the laughter of children coming from the end of the corridor.

"You looked in the direction of the sound and saw only a shadow. When you chased after it, the shadow had disappeared."

"What appeared before your eyes was a spacious room, with tables and chairs tilted here and there, and only a dusty electric fan turning slowly, making a creaking sound."

Seeing this game text, an idea suddenly came to Jiang Xinghuo's mind.

Can the underworld generate electricity?

Jiang Xinghuo laughed in silence, shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and continued playing the game.

"Do you want to explore this room?"

The option popped up and Jiang Xinghuo chose yes.

"You explored the dilapidated house carefully. Although the furnishings in the house were rather messy, many things were visible at a glance. After some exploration, you made some discoveries."

"You got it, a lucky doll."

"The Fortune Doll (excellent item), a derivative of the Law of Fortune, has the ability to attract wealth and fortune. Placing it in the east direction of your home can improve your fortune."

Jiang Xinghuo clicked on the text and took the object into reality. It was a palm-sized clay figure. The paint on it was already mottled and faded, and it looked like a shoddy product.

After playing with it for a while, Jiang Xinghuo put it on the shelf and continued playing the game.

"When you obtained the Fortune Doll, you also sensed the existence of the Lucky Doll. These two dolls are derivatives of the Law of Wealth and can greatly improve your own wealth and fortune."

"Are you going to look for the lucky doll?"

Attract wealth?

Lucky money?

It sounded quite auspicious, Jiang Xinghuo had no reason to refuse and chose yes directly.
