A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

As soon as Zhou An finished speaking, he was the first to jump into the well.

Seeing this, the others didn't hesitate and quickly jumped into the well one by one. Li Shengsheng was the last one to jump in without any problems.

……

"This is... out?" Zhou An stood on the asphalt road, looking at the abandoned old house in front of him with a blank expression.

One person after another appeared behind them.

It was Li Shengsheng and the others.

"We're out? We actually made it out?"

"How amazing! How did we suddenly get out?"

Some people are still unclear about the situation.

"Captain, you're all out? Has this strange incident been resolved?" Chang Yu and his men had cordoned off the area. Seeing the group emerge, he went to greet them.

This is the city center, although it's not in the busiest commercial area.

However, the traffic volume is also very high.

The moment it appeared, a video of it was taken and posted online.

The Bureau of Strange Affairs also immediately suppressed the hype.

Then Li Shengsheng sent people over and sealed off an area within a one-kilometer radius.

However, the surrounding high-rise buildings could not be sealed off.

At most, a signal jammer can be used; within a kilometer, no information can be received except through special communication equipment.

"Not yet. This place is a bit strange."

"Sheng Sheng, let's go in again." Zhou An directly possessed Li Sheng Sheng's body.

“Okay.” Li Shengsheng nodded, then looked at Chang Yu: “Stay vigilant, maintain the blockade, and suppress the online buzz.”

"Yes, Captain," Chang Yu replied immediately.

Li Shengsheng immediately went back into the abandoned old house.

As soon as he entered, Zhou An came out.

It was still the same pitch-black old house.

Empty and silent.

"Let's go check the well in the yard first."

The two arrived at the well, and Zhou An jumped in, hitting the bottom.

Zhou An jumped up and then circled around again.

Upon re-entering the well, they were transported to the second level of space.

Zhou An followed the same method and then entered the third layer of space.

"Strange, there's only one of us, and only two including you, yet we managed to reach the third level of space," Li Shengsheng said in confusion.

"Clearly, the space is not calculated based on the number of people, but rather on a fixed space."

"Could it be that it corresponds to the eighteen levels of hell, hence the eighteen levels?" Zhou An guessed.

Chapter 152 Settlement Rewards

More than ten minutes passed.

Zhou An and Li Shengsheng reappeared outside the mansion.

Chang Yu and the others immediately gathered around.

"Captain." Chang Yu looked at Zhou An, waiting for him to continue.

Zhou An said in a deep voice, "This house is a bit strange. There is no danger at all. As long as you go through every part of it, you can go to the next level through the well."

"Once you get past the eighteenth floor, you'll be out, and you won't see anything strange."

"Is that so? Then what should we do?"

“This is a main road, it can’t be closed for too long,” Chang Yu asked quickly.

Zhou An said in a deep voice, "Find a construction team immediately and build an overpass here to bypass it."

“Block 300 meters of this main road, build a high wall, surround it, and seal off the viaduct from above.”

Chang Yu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, Captain."

Although sealing off the house is a bit of a hassle, there's no other way.

It's better than this huge, eerie mansion just standing there in front of everyone.

The authorities are no longer suppressing the issue of the supernatural world, and the public is gradually accepting it.

However, it's impossible to directly present the truth to the public, as that would cause unrest.

Chang Yu immediately contacted the relevant personnel to prepare for project approval.

No, that's not right. It shouldn't be called project initiation, but rather that after being notified, a plan should be developed in the shortest possible time.

Their Bureau of Mysteries has the highest authority to mobilize resources when encountering bizarre events.

No organization can refuse.

After finishing up here, Zhou An and Li Shengsheng returned to the Bureau of Strange Affairs building.

Back in the office.

Zhou An lay on the sofa and asked Li Shengsheng, "Did anything major happen during the week I was gone?"

“Of course we have them, but they’re not from here; they’re from overseas,” Li Shengsheng said in a deep voice.

"From abroad? Tell me about it." Zhou An suddenly became interested.

Five days ago, a videotape appeared in the island nation.

"Just like the movie 'The Ring,' once the videotape is played, the victim dies within an hour."

"Most importantly, the videotape was spread by malicious individuals, and within five days, more than 100,000 people watched it."

“Without exception, they all died one after another. The island nation went to great lengths, even using a rule-based item and a high-level item, to retrieve and seal all the videotapes,” Li Shengsheng said in a deep voice.

"A videotape? The Ring, that's interesting."

"But it shouldn't have spread, right?" Zhou An didn't seem to care much about the lives of the Japanese.

He only cares whether those things will be passed down.

Li Shengsheng shook her head: "No, the videotapes seem to only circulate in the island nation. Some people have tried to take them abroad, but once they leave the country, they are naturally burned."

"This is interesting. It seems like it was spread by someone." Zhou An stroked his chin and pondered.

"A major event has also occurred in the United States."

“Just a day ago, a state in the United States directly announced the existence of a bizarre world, causing a huge uproar internationally.” Li Shengsheng revealed another earth-shattering event.

"Huh? Has that guy gone mad?" Zhou An immediately sat up halfway on the sofa.

"He's really gone mad. After that governor made the announcement, he was immediately sent to a mental hospital."

"Even so, the whole of the United States was in an uproar, and the Doomsday Cult has emerged."

“Some American players are directly filming videos and posting them on overseas video platforms like TikTok and YouTube. Things are already chaotic in the US.” Li Shengsheng couldn’t understand what those people were thinking.

"Has the country been affected?" Zhou An asked.

"Domestically, the country was affected, but the government's control was very strong, and there was no major chaos."

"But three days later, the government will also hold a press conference to officially address this issue and address it to the whole country."

“I asked the General Administration, and they plan to publicly announce the existence of the Strange World in three days,” Li Shengsheng said.

"What? You're really going to make it public?" Zhou An gasped.

If you calculate the time, Zhou An has only been dead for about two months, and the bizarre world is about to be revealed.

He's only at level five now.

"We have no choice but to make it public. It's a major event in the island nation, and the openness and chaos in the United States."

"In some other smaller countries, the situation is even more chaotic."

"As far as I know, in the past month alone, more than a dozen small countries around the world have perished." Li Shengsheng could also sense that the situation was becoming increasingly difficult.

"No, I need to improve my skills as soon as possible."

"Also, I need to bring my parents over here." Zhou An couldn't sit still any longer.

“I’ve already called my uncle and aunt, but they won’t listen to me.”

“Only your own son would listen, but they can’t see you, which is a bit of a problem,” Li Shengsheng said, shaking her head.

“It’s alright, I can communicate with them using the mind translator. Let’s go, let’s go back now.” Zhou An stepped forward and grabbed Li Shengsheng.

"Leave now? Sure, I'll have someone drive us." It's fine for Li Shengsheng to leave temporarily.

"Don't drive." As soon as Zhou An finished speaking, he activated the power of the rabbit talisman and disappeared from the spot with Li Shengsheng.

Now Zhou An has a speed of Mach 10, and it only takes him 103 seconds to get home, which is about 300 kilometers away.

Zhou An took this opportunity to calculate his rewards.
