We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Chapter 107: Mastery Completed (Twenty Chapters, Seeking First Subscription!)

To be honest, not only were Nakamura Yumi and the other two frightened, but even Lu Ming himself was startled by the effects of the talisman.

He had thought these talismans were just supernatural items like teru teru bozu (Japanese teru bozu dolls), never expecting them to have such powerful effects.

"This is different from those evil props. It doesn't feel cold at all when you use it. It even has a bit of a strange divinity."

Lu Ming thought of the talismans in the Taoist system.

But this is just a guess and cannot be confirmed.

He plans to study it thoroughly once he returns to the Main God Space.

After igniting two talismans in succession, Lu Ming felt a slight sense of fatigue.

This fatigue is not physical, but mental.

For those who control ghosts, mental exhaustion is undoubtedly fatal, essentially equivalent to an unstable mental state. If it reaches a certain level, there is even a risk of the ghost resurrecting.

From this perspective, it is indeed necessary to increase mental strength.

"If it truly is a Taoist talisman, then it is indeed a powerful tool for exorcising ghosts, which explains why Wang Jie and his group's methods were far less effective than mine..."

"Rather than saying that the effects of these talismans vary from person to person, it's more accurate to say that most challengers simply haven't unlocked the true potential of the talismans..."

Mizunuma Mimiko, as the vengeful ghost in "One Missed Call," is not a very strong ghost, but after being strengthened into her complete form by Lu Ming, she is already able to exceed the average difficulty of a typical four-star dungeon.

Therefore, Lu Ming's use of two yellow talismans to kill Mizunuma Mimiko directly proves that the power of the talismans is quite good.

This is only Lu Ming's upper limit, not the upper limit of talismans.

Lu Ming felt that there were still many secrets about these talismans, and it was worthwhile for him to return to the Main God Space to study them carefully.

After killing Mimiko, the chilling feeling in the apartment was completely swept away.

The death prediction from the ghost call failed to come true for the first time.

Moreover, this evil curse will not continue to circulate in the world.

Lu Ming sensed something was amiss and looked at Nakamura Yumi and the other two, saying, "Gentlemen, I'm leaving now. It's safe here. Please feel free to rest if you wish."

Because he was holding the hand of the mummified bride, Lu Ming couldn't wave goodbye; he could only give a stiff and somewhat eerie smile.

For a normal person, seeing Lu Ming's smile would only feel strange and terrifying.

But as it turns out, once people have prejudices in their hearts, they will see everything through a filter.

The high school girl who previously thought Abe no Seimei was the most handsome blushed and looked at the mummified bride with a hint of envy.

"To be Lu Jun's shikigami is truly a blissful thing..."

She wanted to say something, but before she could speak, she saw Lu Ming and the mummified bride's figures become blurry, as if they were being decomposed, and slowly dissipate into the air.

Lu Ming simply disappeared.

···········
On Lu Ming's side, a semi-transparent panel appeared in front of him.

In a daze, the melodious sound of bells could be heard, signifying that the [Ghost Call] dungeon had been officially cleared.

Both the team-based competitive dungeon missions and the extra missions assigned to Lu Ming by the God Space have been successfully completed.

Dense text began to appear on the semi-transparent panel.

One Missed Call

Difficulty: ☆☆☆☆

[Mission: Survive for fourteen days]

[Current task completed] [Reward: 10 attribute points (already issued)]

In addition, a points settlement screen appeared on the panel.

[Lu Ming: 4200 points]

[A random supernatural item (to be drawn)]

Generally speaking, completing a horror movie dungeon on four-star difficulty will earn you 2000 points.

This time, however, Lu Ming chose the team-based competitive dungeon, and he himself was the leader of the team, so Lu Ming received a high score under the judgment of the God Space.

Including the previous 8110 points, Lu Ming's total points have reached 12310.

Moreover, the accumulated points reached 13310, exceeding 10000, successfully advancing to the fourth-tier challenger level.

He is only less than 7,000 points away from becoming the top-tier fifth-order challenger in this low-dimensional main god space. At that time, Lu Ming will be able to exchange for various high-level abilities, just like Zhou Yisheng.

[Available points: 10 points]

【Mental Power: 59】

[Stamina: 3]

【Strength: 4】

【Speed: 3】

【? ? ? 】

As Lu Ming made a thought and added points, the data on the panel changed.

[Mental Strength: 59] → [Mental Strength: 69]

The feeling of improved mental strength did not become less noticeable despite the larger base number.

On the contrary, this time, Lu Ming could still feel a clear change.

The fatigue caused by using two talismans in succession during "One Missed Call" dissipated completely, and my mind became much clearer.

After the basic panel was displayed, another prompt popped up on the panel in front of Lu Ming.

The murder prophecy, which involved three consecutive ghostly phone calls, failed to materialize.

[Reward: The ability to kill via missed phone calls (already awarded)]

As these small words appeared on the panel, Lu Ming felt a chill run down his spine, as if something was eroding his consciousness.

But this erosion of consciousness was only temporary, and was quickly suppressed by something else.

His mental strength was greatly improved, and thanks to the bloodstained teru teru bozu hanging at his waist, Lu Ming's physical condition also improved considerably.

"It seems that my previous thinking was not correct; the ghost call did not become a piece of Sadako's puzzle."

"This is an invisible vengeful ghost, or rather, more like a murderous curse."

Although Lu Ming felt a little regretful that the ghost call didn't become part of Sadako's puzzle, he only felt a slight pang of emotion for a moment.

Even if it can't be used as a puzzle piece, the murder curse of "One Missed Call" can still be used in conjunction with Sadako's murder patterns.

Moreover, Lu Ming might have the opportunity to come into contact with the mysteriously resurrected Ghost Caller later on.

"Everything is moving in a positive direction, but we still can't let our guard down. Some of my decisions might be wrong, but I just haven't realized it yet, like my decision to immediately take control of the Ghost Coffin... If it weren't for the prophecy on the parchment, I might already be dead if I had followed the original plan."
