Survival in the apocalypse: I exploited a bug in an infinite dungeon.

The two looked at each other, neither of them moving closer.

The man noticed the approaching vehicle, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

However, he quickly regained his composure and continued with his actions.

"This...is this shamanistic ritual strange?" Ji Xun asked Shi Jinwei.

Shi Jinwei remained silent; from her attire to her actions, she resembled a charlatan.

The two did not dare to make any rash moves. After about half an hour, the man finally finished jumping.

He put his things into his backpack, opened his umbrella, and walked towards this side.

Even though I was soaked to the bone, using an umbrella made no difference.

He also seemed to be carrying a tool to conceal his presence, which was ignored by the eerie surroundings.

The strange creatures he summoned obediently lined up and followed him step by step.

The two did not get out of the car, but simply rolled down the window.

The man walked over and greeted them warmly: "Hi, how are you? It's rare to meet living people in a place like this."

These words sounded sarcastic, so Shi Jinwei remained silent.

Ji Xun took over the task of communicating with the man, flashing a polite smile that revealed eight teeth: "Hello, we didn't expect that either."

The two of them started chatting quickly, exchanging words back and forth.

Shi Jinwei stared at the strange creatures and found that they were as if hypnotized, dazed and confused.

Even the most basic, low-level anomalies, if they appear dull or stupid, still act with their own consciousness.

These are different; to put it bluntly, they are like puppets on strings.

Ji Xun then asked, "Are you summoning something supernatural?"

She thought the man would make up an excuse, but to her surprise, he readily admitted, "Yeah, I found an heirloom at home that supposedly can control ghosts. I didn't believe it, so I came over to try it out, and it actually worked, hehe."

"Can I take a look?" Ji Xun asked.

Shi Jinwei's eyes widened. Was it really that direct?

Then, surprisingly, the man agreed and took a small box out of his pocket and handed it over.

He generously said, "Feel free to look around, no charge."

The item was so small that neither of them could see it clearly when he held it in his hand.

Their expressions changed the moment Ji Xun took it.

This little thing is a small instrument.

They also knew that its name was "shielding device".

"It's probably just a coincidence, right?" Shi Jinwei licked her lips and asked dryly.

After examining it carefully, Ji Xun shook his head: "No, it has a number on it."

In the post-apocalyptic dungeon, all jammers, whether purchased from the black market or the official store, will have a serial number.

This instrument is extremely important, and no one dares to counterfeit it.

Therefore, each unit has a unique serial number.

The numbering on this platform is the same as the numbering sequence they saw in the post-apocalyptic instance, which makes one wonder.

Shi Jinwei took out her prop phone and took a picture of the string of numbers: "Write it down first. If we can get back to Safe City, we'll check it out."

Ji Xun had no objection and asked a few more questions, such as what other functions it had besides summoning ghosts.

Man: "It can also ward off evil spirits, but I don't know about its other functions."

Ji Xun: "Can even high-level supernatural phenomena be avoided?"

The man said, "No, that won't work. It only works on these low-level monsters, which is why I came here to try it out. Although the monsters here are also low-level, they have developed some intelligence. They won't devour things indiscriminately like those ultra-low-level monsters, so it's quite safe."

Shi Jinwei felt a sense of unease. Was this person really that honest?

Only after returning the device to the man and watching him leave did Ji Xun speak up: "My skill is hypnosis, which initially required upgrading. Now that I've discovered mental power, as long as I continuously train my mental power, I have a chance to hypnotize anyone below 3S level."

After hearing his explanation, Shi Jinwei's concerns were dispelled.

When they heard that others only needed to improve their mental strength and didn't need to improve their superpower level, they were incredibly envious.

Continuing on the road, the closer we got to the sea, the more eerie things became.

Ji Xun's small pills have an effect for four hours.

After the effects of the medicine wore off, it was time for Shi Jinwei to reciprocate by spraying him with a spray.

She then put on a small bow.

Now the eerie creatures stopped swaying and all moved away from the car.

The closer you get to the sea, the more eerie things you encounter.

The rain was getting heavier, forcing them to slow down.

It was still about 300 kilometers from the sea when it got dark.

If it weren't raining, they planned to drive straight ahead.

But the rain was getting heavier, and they weren't sure what they might encounter ahead.

To be on the safe side, I plan to find a building to rest temporarily.

We'll continue our journey after daybreak.

Ji Xun slowed down and drove through the dilapidated buildings.

The two people on the plane had already checked the information on the map, and this area was also covered by the Ghost Street.

However, it is a peripheral area.

Because of the harsh weather conditions, no one was willing to go there, so the buildings were dilapidated and no one repaired them.

The instance will not be opened here.

If none of the above apply, and there is a strange mental state, then they are unwilling to come over.

I'm not worried about encountering any strange monsters that I can't defeat.

Because if a powerful monster that has lost its mind appears during the Devouring event, it will be killed by a high-level monster, just like in the "Hotel Instance".

To prevent it from growing into an uncontrollable state and causing even greater disaster.

Soon, the two found a detached villa.

It looks a bit dirty, but it's in pretty good condition.

The courtyard was overgrown with weeds, and a group of unevolved, low-level monsters wandered around like zombies.

After getting out of the car, the two first dealt with the strange occurrences around them.

Ji Xun voluntarily revealed his skills, and Shi Jinwei also pulled out an airplane and an off-road vehicle from scratch.

Unspoken to each other.

So when she put the car into her storage space with her bare hands, Ji Xun didn't show any unusual reaction.

Shi Jinwei exuded a powerful aura, and after clearing away the eerie atmosphere in the courtyard, no other ghosts dared to approach.

The villa's front door was half-open, and Shi Jinwei went up and kicked it open.

Holding a powerful flashlight, I found the room completely empty, without even a piece of furniture.

"Something's strange, be careful," Ji Xun whispered.

Shi Jinwei nodded, and her steps became much lighter.

They searched both houses thoroughly, but apart from a few strange creatures, they found nothing.

The strange thing is that the house is "too clean".

Even if all the furniture is moved out, there can't be nothing left on the floor, right?

Shi Jinwei summarized: "It looks like it was deliberately cleaned."

Ji Xun nodded, walked to the window, and used his flashlight to scan the dilapidated large apartment across from the villa.

The house occupies a fairly large area, but half of it is dilapidated.

As he swept the flashlight across the roof, he immediately called Shi Jinwei over to look: "There's nothing in the house across the street either."

The two exchanged a glance and immediately ran downstairs.

They didn't bother with the strange occurrences and simply broke down the door.

Like the villa, the interior was very clean, with only the remains of the building that had fallen from the broken ceiling and walls.

They then went to check other houses in the vicinity, and found the same situation.

One or two times could be considered a coincidence, but it's unusual for so many houses to be like this.

Even if a group comes to collect scraps, they won't sweep the ground clean.
