The Mysterious Dungeon: A Survival Guide to the Twelve Talismans

……

Back in the classroom, Li Shengsheng sat back down in her seat and took off her stone hat.

Zhou An then began calculating the rewards.

A series of notification sounds left Zhou An feeling dizzy and disoriented.

However, he immediately put on the title of Ghost Sealer.

These titles are all good things; they can be stacked and worn indefinitely, and their attributes will never conflict.

"Two more rule-based blind boxes, it's really the standard." Zhou An chuckled.

However, speaking of which, Zhou An has not yet used the rule-based prop blind boxes that he obtained from Song Yu.

……

In the blink of an eye, a day has passed.

Li Shengsheng returned to her rented room at 6 p.m.

Zhou An was also the first to come out and sit on the sofa.

“Sheng Sheng, this time I have gained a new ability, which is to turn inanimate objects into living things, and I will also have my own unique abilities,” Zhou An said.

"Huh? Really?" Li Shengsheng immediately became interested.

“Of course it’s true.” Zhou An nodded slightly.

Upon hearing this, Li Shengsheng immediately ran back to her room and brought over a large pile of dolls.

"Quickly, try to bring these babies back to life," Li Shengsheng said enthusiastically.

Zhou An looked at the dolls, nodded slightly, and reached out to take a Doraemon doll.

Chapter 101 The Rat Talisman, Doraemon Gave Him Life

Zhou An held the Doraemon doll, but did not immediately give it life.

Instead, he began to ponder the limitations of the rat talisman in his mind.

The Rat Talisman can give life to inanimate objects, but it has a very important drawback.

That is, once an inanimate object is given life and comes back to life, it will have its own independent personality and thoughts, and will not obey the holder of the rat talisman.

This means that things will become uncontrollable.

"Uncle, what's wrong? Why won't you bring Doraemon back to life?" Li Shengsheng urged.

"If I gave Doraemon life, he would have his own thoughts and personality and would not obey my commands."

"What if Doraemon goes out of control then? I can't handle all those gadgets in his bag," Zhou An said in a deep voice.

"Is that so?" Li Shengsheng's eyes darted around, and she immediately thought of a solution.

"Uncle, this is easy. Doraemon is only good at using gadgets; he's actually quite weak."

"After you revive Doraemon, just knock him out and then take his dimensional pocket, right?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou An's eyes lit up immediately.

Yeah, just knock him out. Doraemon isn't that strong; his strength lies in his gadgets.

Zhou An looked at the Doraemon doll in his hand.

This was just something Li Shengsheng's grandmother bought on the street and gave to Li Shengsheng on her tenth birthday.

It looks adorable, and although it's been eight years, it still looks very new and clean.

Zhou An immediately activated the power of the Rat Talisman.

The next moment, a soft white light enveloped the entire doll.

Those previously dull and lifeless pupils suddenly lit up with a lively luster.

The originally tight fabric bulged slightly, and then his limbs slowly began to move.

"Well……"

A familiar voice rang in Zhou An's ears.

The tiny Doraemon slowly sat up.

He stretched, his posture and tone exactly like Doraemon's.

Before Little Dora could even see what was happening, Zhou An delivered a swift chop to the back of his neck.

Little Doraemon rolled her eyes and then lay down limply.

"Ah ah ah..."

"She's alive! She's alive! It really is Xiao Duo! She's so cute!" Li Shengsheng exclaimed in surprise, cupping her face in her hands.

Zhou An, however, reached out with a clear purpose and took the four-dimensional pocket off Little Dora's belly.

Li Shengsheng grabbed Little Dora and started pinching her repeatedly.

"Wow, it doesn't feel like a doll at all, it really turns into Doraemon, so small and cute." Li Shengsheng didn't know how to describe her feelings at this moment.

"Alright, don't wake up Doraemon, or it'll cause trouble," Zhou An instructed, before starting to examine the four-dimensional pocket.

【Mini 4D Pocket】: This is an item that exists for certain special reasons.

Effect: A special rule item containing a four-dimensional space. A rule item that exists because of a certain entity; if that entity disappears, the item disappears as well.

After reading this attribute, Zhou An raised an eyebrow.

The four-dimensional pocket is very small; I estimate that you can only fit one finger inside at most.

However, it wasn't a big problem, and Zhou An immediately started pouring the props out.

Before long, quite a few props fell out.

Upon seeing this, Zhou An immediately stepped forward to examine these miniature props.

【Mini Magnifying Lamp】: This is a prop that exists for certain special reasons.

Effect: A one-time use item that can enlarge objects or creatures up to ten times their original size by 1-10 times. It disappears immediately after use.

【Mini Anywhere Door】: This is a prop that exists for certain special reasons.

Effect: A one-time use item that can open a door leading to any location. It cannot be passed through if the door is larger than any other door. It disappears immediately after use.

When Zhou An saw this miniature version of the Anywhere Door, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

It's estimated that it can only accommodate one cat to pass through, so Zhou An definitely can't.

Zhou An then looked at the other props and found that they were all disposable and their functions were weakened.

That's true, since Dora is a doll, it's normal for the props she takes out to be miniature versions.

Zhou An then put all these miniature gadgets into his four-dimensional pocket, leaving only one miniature Anywhere Door.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou An withdrew the power of the rat talisman.

The next instant, Doraemon returned to its doll form.

Zhou An looked at the mini Anywhere Door in his hand, which hadn't disappeared, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

This means that the items obtained from Doraemon will not disappear because they lose their life force.

However, it still has some impact.

【Mini Anywhere Door】: This is a prop that exists for certain special reasons.

Effect: A one-time use rule item that can open a door to any location. Doors larger than any size cannot be passed through. It disappears immediately after use and lasts for 24 hours.

"Will the item automatically disappear after 24 hours once it loses its life force?" Zhou An pondered, stroking his chin.

Zhou An thought this situation was normal.

Although it only lasts for 24 hours, the important thing is that you will be able to have a large number of items, including rule items, afterward.

Because some of Doraemon's gadgets are rule-breaking gadgets that don't follow any rules.

"Oh dear, it's back to normal." Li Shengsheng seemed to still be having fun.

"Stop playing around, take a look at this." Zhou An handed the mini Anywhere Door to Li Shengsheng.

After reading it, Li Shengsheng's mouth opened slightly.

“Props… this… Uncle, we’re about to take off.” Li Shengsheng also realized this instantly.

"The dolls are too small. Although they can be given life, the items will be weakened."

“We need to get some 1:1 replicas of figurines or statues,” Zhou An said.

"This... I heard that figurines are quite expensive, especially these one-to-one replicas..." Although Li Shengsheng still had some money, she was afraid it wouldn't last long.

“When did I say I wanted to buy it? We’ll carve it ourselves.” As soon as Zhou An finished speaking, he took out a carving machine.

【Fully Automatic 3D Printer】: Allows you to free your hands and replicate designs one-to-one.

Effect: Level 3 item. Provides drawing and data indices. Can print the item in the drawing at a 1:1 scale. Costs 10-100 Soul Coins per print.

“I specially selected this,” Zhou An said with a faint smile.

With this printer, if you want to revive someone, just download the original image and print it out.

"That's great! Then uncle, hurry up and print out a Doraemon!" Li Shengsheng was even more excited than Zhou An at this moment.

Zhou An nodded and found the most classic Doraemon original image, which also had the best details.

Next, all the official standard height, body type, and body shape data were entered into the printing system, and every parameter was calibrated.

After Zhou An confirmed that everything was correct, he took out a hundred-yuan soul banknote and inserted it into the banknote slot, then pressed the imprint button heavily with his fingertip.

"Buzz~~!"

The high-precision 3D printer on the desktop starts instantly, and the robotic arm slides slowly.

Layers of milky-white printing supplies were stacked, precisely outlining that familiar and rounded contour.

On the originally empty printing platform, a rounded blue outline quickly took shape.

A round head, a chubby body, and short limbs.

Even more iconic is the red round bell, and every detail is executed with the utmost precision in the mechanical process.

Li Shengsheng squatted to the side, her eyes wide open.

Her small face was very close, and she even unconsciously softened her breathing.
