A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

Zhou Anke hadn't forgotten her return reward: two rule-based blind boxes she hadn't opened yet.

But after thinking about it, I just picked one randomly.

They then returned to the lobby on the first floor with Li Shengsheng.

Zhou Tianhan had been waiting there for a while, and as soon as he saw Zhou An, he quickly walked over.

"Finished your selection? Let's go back to Changsha."

"We will be notified as soon as the cultivation method is developed," Zhou Tianhan said.

"Director, you can go back first. Sheng Sheng and I will have some fun in Beijing," Zhou An replied.

Upon hearing this, Li Shengsheng's lips curled up slightly, and she felt secretly pleased: "I didn't expect Uncle to remember."

“That works, but you’ll have to contact the General Administration when it comes to arranging a chartered plane.” Zhou Tianhan nodded.

“Okay,” Zhou An replied with a smile.

Zhou An watched Zhou Tianhan and Zhang Xiao leave.

"Let's go, first stop, Tiananmen Square." Li Shengsheng immediately grabbed Zhou An's wrist and excitedly walked outside.

For three days in a row, Zhou An and Li Shengsheng explored almost the entire capital city.

Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, museums, the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, and so on.

Li Shengsheng had a great time, and Zhou An could tell that her happiness was genuine.

Indeed, this is probably Li Shengsheng's first time traveling.

Zhou An was in a similar situation; he hadn't had much time to travel before, but this time, he was just as happy.

Not to mention, he also had such a beautiful girl to play with.

In other words, in some places, tourists cannot see Zhou An because he is a player.

This led to Li Shengsheng behaving strangely in the eyes of tourists.

But Li Shengsheng didn't care at all.

After her grandmother died, she had no one left to care about, except for Zhou An.

Extending from Zhou An, we now include Zhou An's parents and others.

After they had had their fill of fun, Zhou An and the others prepared to return to Changsha.

However, Zhou An suddenly thought of something and took Li Shengsheng to the headquarters of the Bureau of Strange Affairs again.

"Haven't you had enough fun yet? Did you come to find me for something?" Zhang Tiandao put down the documents in his hand and then looked at Zhou An.

"I have some life ore. Does the government buy it?" Zhou An asked.

"Life ore? You have life ore? Of course I'll take it." Zhang Tiandao looked at Zhou An with some surprise.

However, Zhang Tiandao didn't care too much anymore, after all, how many life ore could one person have?

"What's the price?" Zhou An asked.

Inside Wanbaoge, life ore costs 10,000 yuan per ton; of course, that's the retail price.

"Based on Wanbaoge's retail price of 10,000 yuan per ton, that's equivalent to 5 soul coins per jin."

"Of course, cash can also be used for settlement. The ratio of Soul Banknotes to cash is one to one hundred."

"For specifics, contact the research department below; they handle these matters specifically." Zhang Tiandao finished speaking and continued processing the documents in his hands.

"Not much, only about 10,000 tons," Zhou An said calmly.

"How...how much?" Zhang Tiandao wondered if he had misheard.

"Ten thousand tons? Really?" Zhang Xiaoye, who was playing on her phone, looked at Zhou An with a surprised expression.

"I got it in the dungeon. It's not convenient to take it out here. Let me show you in a warehouse," Zhou An said.

"Let's go, to the research department's warehouse immediately." Zhang Tiandao appeared in front of Zhou An in a flash, and then grabbed Zhou An's wrist.

Zhou An could clearly sense that Zhang Tiandao was very excited at this moment.

Before Zhou An could react, he felt the space around him distort.

The next second, he appeared inside a huge warehouse.

As expected of a peak eighth-tier player, Zhou An was brought here before he could even react.

Zhou An didn't speak, but raised his hand, a thought forming in his mind.

Suddenly, a large amount of life ore appeared in the warehouse.

In no time, 10,000 tons of life ore were piled up in the warehouse.

Zhang Tiandao looked at the mountain of life ore, his mouth slightly agape, and then an expression of excitement and agitation appeared on his face.

"Haha, great, that's wonderful."

"With so many life minerals, the login bracelets can be mass-produced."

Zhang Tiandao looked at Jiang Zhou'an with admiration in his eyes.

However, Zhang Tiandao quickly calmed down and said, "Zhou An, this batch of life ore is very important to our Bureau of Mysteries, but we don't have that many soul coins available right now."

Chapter 128 Entering the Dungeon: Soul Iron Mine

Life ore, five soul coins per pound, ten thousand coins per ton.

There are 10,000 tons here, that's 100 million.

Their Bureau of Ghost Stories doesn't have that much money either.

"Our Bureau of Ghostly Affairs can only offer you a maximum of 20 million Soul Coins right now."

"As for the rest, how about using the items in the prop warehouse as collateral?" Zhang Tiandao said in a deep voice.

"I don't lack items and skills for now; I can return the rest slowly."

"Or, if the Bureau of Mysteries has some kind of pass that allows entry into dungeons, we could use it as collateral," Zhou An said with a faint smile.

“Okay, you know what, I actually have one here.” Zhang Tiandao had a thought and took out a pass the size of a palm.

【Mist Pioneer】: Temporary work permit for the Mist Pioneer.

Special item: With this work permit, you can go to the Fog Outpost to explore the Fog at specific times.

Time: The 1st of each month.

Holder: Zhang Tiandao

Note: When a human player possesses this work pass, it will be summoned from the real world to the Fog Outpost in the form of a copy. After use, the item will disappear.

Zhou An took it and a smile appeared on his face: "This is fine. If there are any more in the future, you can use it to offset one million."

Zhou An had the Horse Talisman and was hardly short of money, so he directly used it as a discount of one million.

“One million? No, no, no, you’re getting ripped off. These things aren’t worth that much.” Zhang Tiandao waved his hands repeatedly.

Zhou An said nonchalantly, "I don't lack money, nor do I lack strength. What I lack is level and realm."

“That’s different.” Zhang Tiandao shook his head.

These special items that allow you to run dungeons are actually worthless, or even dangerous, in the eyes of most players.

Because in their view, running a dungeon is a matter of life and death.

Only those who are confident in their own abilities would need this kind of item that allows them to enter dungeons in advance.

In the end, the two negotiated the price down to 300,000 yuan per piece.

And if we get any more of these kinds of items in the future, we'll give them to Zhou An immediately.

"These kinds of special props have been contributed to the prop repository before, but for some reason, the prop repository has not accepted them."

"I reckon there are definitely quite a few players across the country who have these kinds of special items."

"Just wait for my good news. I'll get you more in a few days. I guess there are some overseas too. I can use my connections to get you some as well," Zhang Tiandao said.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Director," Zhou An said with a smile.

What he lacks now is a higher level.

As long as there are enough of these special items, Zhou An can keep running dungeons and level up quickly.

"Do you have a bank card from Tiandi Bank?" Zhang Tiandao asked.

"Yes." Zhou An nodded.

“Tell me your card number, and I’ll transfer the 20 million to you directly,” Zhang Tiandao said, taking out his bank card.

Even in the real world, it is possible to transfer soul money from the Heaven and Earth Bank.

Zhou An nodded without saying anything and immediately gave his card number.

Zhou An quickly sensed it; 20 million soul coins were deposited directly into his account.

"Received it," Zhou An said with a smile.

"By the way, let me transfer the cash you ordered. Young people can't do without some money on them."

Zhang Tiandao glanced at Li Shengsheng, then took out his phone and dialed someone's number.

Within two minutes, Li Shengsheng's phone rang.

She took it out and exclaimed in surprise, "Uncle... look, how many zeros are there? Am I seeing things?"

Zhou An leaned closer to take a look and saw that there were nine zeros in total, which meant one billion.

"Thank you, Director." Zhou An said with a smile.

"I'm rich! I'm rich! Haha!" Li Shengsheng grinned foolishly.

She had never seen so much money in her entire life.

"Director, then we won't disturb you any longer. We'll head back to Changsha first."

"Yes, I'll arrange a private jet for you."
