A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

"Hey, it's nothing important, it's okay to tell you."

"One of the vice presidents of our First Ghostly People's Hospital recently sought an opportunity in the Dead Star Sea."

"Instead of seizing the opportunity, I was swallowed by a star shark in the Dead Star Sea."

"When the position of vice president becomes vacant, the president will decide which department has the highest performance this month."

"I had no hope of being promoted from department head to vice president."

“It was almost certain that Sun Huoyan was already the chosen one, but things are different now.”

"So, Xiao An, whether I can get promoted depends on you," Director Wang said, patting Zhou An on the shoulder.

"Then I'll congratulate Vice Dean Wang in advance." Zhou An's face lit up with a smile.

No wonder Director Wang was so kind as to help him attract these clients.

It turns out it concerns their own interests.

Meanwhile, with Zhou An's sales exceeding 100 million, Director Wang's commission will be several million, which is not a small amount.

"Haha, things haven't gotten done yet, the Curse Department won't just sit idly by."

"I reckon they already know about your performance and will definitely take some action."

"But don't worry, as long as you stay in the hospital, even a ninth-tier ghost emperor couldn't do anything to you," Director Wang said with a faint smile.

Although the First Ghost People's Hospital is relatively small in size, it is still a level nine group force.

The dean is a true level nine Ghost Emperor.

"Director Wang, if I may ask, what is your cultivation level, and what is Director Sun's cultivation level?" Zhou An asked.

“I am at the seventh rank, while Sun Huoyan just broke through to the eighth rank last year,” Director Wang said.

"This... Director Wang, your cultivation level is not as high as Director Sun's. Even if your performance reaches the required level, can you still get promoted?" Zhou An looked puzzled.

In this strange world, strength reigns supreme.

"Xiao An, you should understand that in this world, strength determines everything, right?" Director Wang said earnestly.

"Understood." Zhou An nodded.

"So, the dean is my grandfather, and my grandfather has the power to suppress everything."

"If it weren't for the hospital's rules, I would have become the vice president long ago."

"Now that you can make our emergency department the best performing department in the hospital, the other shareholders won't be able to say anything."

"I can naturally become the vice dean as well." Director Wang said this with his head held high and his face beaming.

Okay, Zhou An understands. This world is not only about strength, but also about interpersonal relationships.

"I never imagined that Director Wang's grandfather was actually the Ghost Emperor. Director Wang is truly a man of great talent." Zhou An was genuinely impressed.

Why doesn't he have a Ghost Emperor grandfather?

"Haha, as long as you help me become the vice dean, I'll protect you from now on," Director Wang said, patting Zhou An on the shoulder.

Chapter 145 First Encounter with the Ghost Emperor!

Zhou An leisurely arrived at this floor of the Curse Department.

The floor of the Curse Department was extremely crowded, practically overflowing with people.

Zhou An didn't dare go in, but instead put up a sign at the elevator entrance.

[Cures all curses and diseases; if it doesn't work, tenfold compensation]

Zhou An sat in a recliner, with his legs crossed and propped up on the table.

Liu Jing, Zhang Xiaosu, and Liu Hui stood to the side, each holding a bill printer.

The Curses Department truly lives up to its reputation as the top performer; it has a huge number of patients.

Zhou An came here, naturally, for treatment, to achieve top performance, and at the same time weaken their performance.

As for the clients recommended by Zhou Sheng and his team, they won't be able to come anytime soon.

"A cure for all curses and diseases? Really?"

"Good heavens, is this a human? How dare it come to the hospital and steal our business?"

"Damn, he's really not afraid of death. Isn't this a provocation?"

"Is he human? Why does he look like a doctor?"

"Wait, look at his name tag, he's an emergency room doctor, and there's a nurse standing behind him."

"How strange, a human doctor from the emergency room is trying to steal patients from the curse department?"

The elevator entrance area was also a haunted place, and suddenly a number of eerie creatures gathered there.

"Does it really cure all curses?" a skeleton walked over and asked hesitantly.

"Of course, if it can't be cured, I'll compensate you tenfold. Do you want treatment?" Zhou An didn't even get up, but simply asked calmly.

"Treatment, but how much is tenfold compensation?" the skeleton man asked.

"Hmm...we'll compensate you ten times the amount you spent at the hospital. Now, let's talk about your condition," Zhou An asked.

"I was betrayed and cursed, causing my flesh and blood to fall away until only my skeleton remains."

"If it weren't for my abilities, I'd probably be dead by now."

"The Curse Department can treat me, but I have to wait in line for surgery, and the earliest appointment is a month away," the skeleton man said.

"Come here." Zhou An beckoned.

Upon hearing this, the skeleton stepped forward.

Zhou An immediately raised his right leg and struck the skeleton man with lightning speed.

The instant he struck his opponent, Zhou An immediately activated the power of the Horse Talisman.

A flash of white light appeared, and the opponent's flesh and blood began to swell wildly.

In the blink of an eye, a woman with a cool and aloof appearance and a tall figure appeared before them.

Zhou An's pupils contracted slightly as he stared at the woman.

The other person's flesh and blood had recovered, but they were not wearing any clothes.

"Ah~~~!" A scream of shame rang out.

The woman strangely and subconsciously raised her hand to cover her vital parts.

Then, black mist rapidly rose from her body, enveloping her within it.

Holy crap! So white.

"Unfortunately, we can only see the back. That human was having a great time and saw everything naked."

The strange-looking onlookers behind them began to laugh in a lewd manner.

After a long while, the black mist dissipated, and a strange woman with a slightly flushed face appeared before everyone.

At this point, they were already dressed, but in a very conservative way, their entire bodies completely covered.

They were all wearing masks, only their eyes were visible.

"Thank you, doctor. My curse is really gone." The woman looked at Zhou An gratefully.

"You're welcome, just remember to pay." Zhou An lay back down.

Liu Jing took the bill and handed it to the woman: "This is your bill. Please go to the lobby on the first floor to pay the fee."

"Okay, okay." The female ghost took the bill and nodded repeatedly.

"Doctor, doctor, I...I...please treat me!" A strange creature reacted the fastest and rushed to Zhou An's side.

"Get out of my way, treat mine first."

"Get out of here, I'm the strongest, heal me first."

Suddenly, about twenty strange figures were crammed together, creating utter chaos.

"Silence! Line up in two rows and come in for treatment one by one," Zhou An ordered coldly.

These strange creatures looked at each other and quickly formed two lines.

Zhou An immediately summoned the benevolent and malevolent entities.

They knew what to do without Zhou An even having to give them instructions.

They started the treatment process immediately, one on the left and one on the right.

Meanwhile, Liu Jing and the other two were constantly printing out forms.

The commotion naturally attracted the attention of the nurses in the department.

But none of the nurses paid attention to it because they were too busy.

But as time went on, the nurses found themselves increasingly idle.

From being so tired at the beginning that my feet barely touched the ground, I can now relax and chat.

"Finally, I can take a break."

"By the way, what are those people queuing up at the elevator doing?" a nurse asked.

"I guess they're selling something? Should we call security to remove them?" another nurse said.

"Anyone who dares to sell things at the entrance of our department must have connections; they're probably a relative of someone in our department."

"As long as they don't cause trouble, we won't interfere. By the way, it feels like there are far fewer people today, it's so much more relaxed."

"Indeed, it's easier than before."

Four or five strange nurses were whispering to each other at the front desk.

However, there were still many nurses constantly going in and out of the ward.

Although the number of patients has decreased significantly, there are still quite a few hospitalized patients or those waiting for surgery.

Just then, a strange-looking doctor walked over: "Xiao Hu, what's going on? Several patients who made appointments haven't come to see you. Where are they?"
