The Mysterious Dungeon: A Survival Guide to the Twelve Talismans

"Your name is Xiao Ke, right? My name is Zhou An."

"Come back tomorrow. I'll still be here. I'll give you some snacks then."

Regardless, Zhou An decided to keep this little rascal in check first.

Chapter 32 The Bizarre Wool-Fighting

"Oh, you're right. I'll come again tomorrow. I've already eaten so many snacks today anyway." Xiao Ke nodded repeatedly.

After saying that, Xiao Ke was about to leave.

Upon seeing this, Zhou An's lips twitched slightly. This little girl really had a big heart, leaving without a second thought, not caring whether they lived or died.

Zhou An immediately said, "Xiao Ke, wait a moment."

"Why did you call me?" Xiao Ke tilted her head and looked at Zhou An.

"Xiao Ke, you've broken my luck. Without luck, I would have been killed by the monsters on Tongcheng Street."

"So, I'd like to ask if you have any solutions?" Zhou An asked.

"Oh? I'm sorry, I did it because I smelled the snacks." Xiao Ke looked at Zhou An a little embarrassed.

"I accept your apology, but do you have any props or abilities that can help me survive tonight?" Zhou An wasn't worried about the damage to the house.

I spent three hours chopping my arm today. Although it didn't hurt or tire me, it was mentally exhausting.

After working for three hours, how could I not make any money?

Putting everything else aside, this flesh and blood alone is worth countless soul coins.

“I have the ability to do it, but once I leave, the ability will be gone.”

"As for the props... Zhou An, wait a moment, let me look for them." As soon as Xiao Ke finished speaking, her hair suddenly stood on end.

In the next instant, dozens of props fell out of his hair like rain.

When these props fell to the ground, they made a tinkling sound.

Zhou An stared blankly at the scene.

These props are not the low-grade ones that Zhou An brought over.

Each of these props is uniquely designed and shimmers with a hazy light, clearly indicating that they are high-end props.

If it weren't for Xiao Ke's terrifying existence, Zhou An would have already lost control and wanted to take it.

Xiao Ke kept twirling and fiddling with the props in her hair.

After a while, Xiao Ke excitedly said, "I found it! Here, take this."

Zhou An took the props that were handed to him.

This is a hat.

【Stone Hat】: An ordinary stone hat.

Effect: Rule-based item. When worn, you will become an ordinary stone by the roadside, ignored by others.

Note: Do not wear it for more than 30 hours within a month, otherwise it will become impossible to remove and will be permanently ignored. It will be automatically re-adjusted at 0:0 on the 1st of each month.

After reading the attributes, Zhou An was immediately shocked.

Rule-based items, surprisingly, they are rule-based items.

Moreover, this attribute is a bit overpowered; it's not like the attribute of a prop from a certain anime.

The wearing time should not exceed 30 hours per month, which is equivalent to one hour per day.

Putting everything else aside, this stone hat can be incredibly useful in any dungeon.

"With this hat, you'll survive tonight. I'll be going now." Xiao Ke said, preparing to pack up the props.

"Xiao Ke, wait a minute." Zhou An called out to Xiao Ke again.

"What's wrong, Zhou An?" Xiao Ke turned around and looked at Zhou An.

“There’s only one stone hat, but there are three of us here,” Zhou An said immediately.

"Oh, sorry, I forgot there are still two people. I'll look for two more props." Xiao Ke suddenly realized and quickly started searching again.

This time, Xiao Ke found it very quickly, in just a dozen breaths.

"Found it, Nuo, here you go." Xiao Ke handed two props wrapped in two strands of her hair to the evil entity and the benevolent entity respectively.

Neither the benevolent nor the malevolent entity said anything; they simply accepted it.

"I'll be going now, I'll come find you again tomorrow. Oh, by the way, do you have a phone?"

“Let’s exchange contact information so I can find you no matter where you are.” Xiao Ke remembered something and immediately took out her giant cell phone.

Zhou An raised an eyebrow, not expecting that Xiao Ke would know to exchange contact information with him.

However, this was not a bad thing for Zhou An, and the two immediately exchanged contact information.

Then Xiao Ke rolled away from Tongcheng Street.

Watching Xiao Ke leave, Zhou An quickly took the Good and Evil bodies back into the house.

He reached out and pressed his hand on the broken roller shutter door, directly activating the power of the horse talisman.

In the next instant, the roller shutter door was restored to its original appearance.

At this point, the strange doctor's operation was completely over.

Back in the lounge, Zhou An eagerly looked at the Good and Evil entities: "Quick, quick, bring me the props, let me see what they are."

The benevolent and malevolent entities directly handed the items to Zhou An.

[Amulet]: This is an amulet that can protect you and keep you safe.

Effect: A level 4 item. When worn, monsters below level 4 cannot break through your defenses, and it can also withstand a full-force attack from a level 4 monster. Once the energy of a level 4 monster is depleted, the amulet becomes ineffective.

【We are good friends】: We are good friends, the best of friends.

Effect: A rule-based item. Say the words "We are good friends" and then hand the item to the other person. The other person will unconditionally become your good friend and will not refuse some of your reasonable requests.

Note: The duration of the item depends on the strength of both parties, with a minimum duration of one hour. When the duration ends, the item will belong to the other party, and they will harbor deeper malice towards you.

When Zhou An saw the two props, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Great stuff, really great stuff!

Leaving aside the amulet, at this stage, those below level four cannot shake Zhou An in the slightest.

The rule-based item "We are good friends" is unbeatable and can definitely avert a terrifying crisis.

A great harvest! A great harvest!

It wasn't in vain that Zhou An and his clones spent three hours continuously chopping off arms.

"We've really struck it rich this time. That little girl is not only terrifying, but also a little rich girl." The benevolent entity was also beaming with joy.

"Terrible? No, no, not scary at all. That's a treasure-giving boy. Zhou An, we'll have to fleece him again tomorrow." The evil entity cackled.

"Don't worry, I won't stop until she's completely bald." A smile appeared on Zhou An's face.

"Zhou An, let's make a fortune today! Let's go to Rouhun Foot Bath! Don't forget your promise to me!" the evil entity suddenly said.

Zhou An's smile froze on the spot. He scratched his cheek, somewhat eager to try: "Then... shall we go?"

"No, that's a strangely opened foot massage parlor. Wouldn't it be dangerous for us to go there?" Although the benevolent spirit was also eager to try, it quickly reminded her of the potential dangers.

“How could there be any danger? I specifically asked the patients who came in today.”

"Rouhun Foot Bath operates even at night because it has the strictest rules in the entire Tongcheng Street."

“Once we enter Rouhun Foot Bath, we are protected by the rules. Our most dangerous times are on the way to Rouhun Foot Bath and on the way back.”

The evil mind body had made ample preparations for washing its feet tonight.

Chapter 33 Gentle Soul Foot Bath

"Alright, since you put it that way, let's all go." The benevolent entity seemed to agree helplessly.

"Don't pretend like that. If you don't want to go, you don't have to." The evil entity rolled its eyes.

“Go ahead, why not? You’ve all gone, so why can’t I go?” the benevolent entity quickly retorted.

"Alright, stop arguing, let's go together." Zhou An waved his hand and put the amulet on his body.

Then Zhou An and the other two arrived at the roller shutter door.

The evil entity stepped forward, easily unlocked the door, and then pulled open the roller shutter.

The sound of the roller shutter door opening was loud, echoing throughout the quiet Tongcheng Street.

However, even so, nothing strange was observed.

Clearly, Xiao Ke's appearance had terrified everyone.

The three came out, and the evil entity locked the roller shutter door.

Zhou An looked at the Rouhun Foot Bath shop diagonally opposite.

The signs that had been turned off have now been lit up again.

This means that Rouhun Foot Bath is still in operation.

The three of them didn't say anything more and walked straight to the other side.

Before long, the three arrived at the entrance of Rouhun Foot Bath, and nothing strange happened during their visit.

It's a large store, but inside there's only a reception room, and there's a spiral staircase on the side leading to the second floor.

The first floor is for reception and dining only; the second and third floors are for massage and foot baths.

The three entered the Rouhun Foot Bath Shop.

Upon entering, Zhou An felt the temperature rise slightly, but it remained cool.

It's much better than the ones on the street.

"Welcome~~~ Lin?" The person in charge of greeting us was a glamorous woman dressed in professional attire.

When they realized that Zhou An and the other two were human, their smiles turned strange.

"Humans? Humans come to wash their feet too?" He Yu looked surprised.

"What? Humans can't come? Or are you saying you won't accept humans?" The evil entity looked at the female ghost with a gloomy expression.

“Of course, as long as you have money. But I’m very curious about how you survived in front of that terrifying being,” He Yu asked with a face full of curiosity.

The moment Xiao Ke appeared, the female ghost was notified and immediately closed the door and turned off the lights.

She had been keeping an eye on the situation outside, but due to the fog, she could only vaguely see Xiao Ke break through the strange medical device.

"How we survived is none of your business. All I want to do right now is wash my feet. Why all the nonsense?" The evil entity was unusually irritable.

Seeing this, He Yu didn't ask any more questions and led the three of them up to the second floor.

"Gentlemen, would you like a foot bath or a massage?" the woman asked.

"Wash your feet," Zhou An said.

About five minutes later, the three of them entered a private room for three people.

The interior is decorated very luxuriously, much like a real-world foot massage parlor.

Three electric foot massage chairs were lined up in a row, with three small coffee tables placed to the side.

"For three guests, we offer three different foot massage packages: 100 yuan, 300 yuan, and 500 yuan. Which package would you like to choose?"

"If you don't have enough money... oh, no, you sold a lot of nourishing meat soup today, so you should have some money."

The woman suddenly thought of something and didn't say the threatening words aloud.

Zhou An didn't care about that and asked directly, "What's the difference between these three levels?"

The woman smiled slightly and explained, "The 100-dollar package is just the most basic 60-minute foot bath."

"A professional technician will come to give you a foot bath. After the foot bath, your attributes will be slightly improved. This effect is only effective for the first three times. After that, you can only enjoy the experience."

"Of course, if you are injured, the foot bath will also slowly heal your injuries and restore your health."
