A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

Her contracted spirit died inside the instance, but instead of letting Huang An die in her place, she chose to die herself, allowing Huang An to inherit everything from her and enter the instance.

Therefore, the reason Huang An revealed his death location in the instance was to lure Zhang Ya or Su He there to kill, thus freeing them from the restriction of their death location.

Moreover, Huang An was gambling, betting that either Su He or Zhang Ya would come here.

Even if none of them can come, she will still try to trick them in the next multiplayer instance.

If she can trick one of them, she can break free from her constraints and gain freedom to hunt other players and find Spirit Pacters.

"As expected of the Dark Forest Law, if that's the case, then I won't be polite." Zhou An wanted these two heads; even Jesus couldn't have saved them.

The next instant, Zhou An indeed made his move.

The moment it emerged from Li Shengsheng's body, the ghostly power within her gathered on the cutting knife.

One slash—

There were no dazzling flashes of sword light, only attacks that were incredibly fast.

Before Huang An could react, Zhou An's knife was already slashing at Huang An's neck.

The next moment, a white light shone from Huang An's body.

A loud "Bang!" rang out.

A blood-red jade pendant worn by Huang An shattered instantly.

Huang An was also sent flying by this slash.

Just as Huang An was about to fall into the water, she suddenly adjusted her body and landed steadily on the railing.

Her terrified eyes were fixed on Zhou An: "It's you...you're a player too?"

"Brilliant, absolutely brilliant! I just wanted to join in the fun, but I've witnessed such a spectacular show." Zhou An clapped his hands and spoke calmly.

Although he didn't kill Huang An with one blow, he didn't care.

"Help me, sir, help me!" Zhang Ya's eyes lit up when she saw Zhou An make a move, as if she had grasped a lifeline.

Zhou An didn't turn his head, but simply waved the scissor in his hand.

The next instant, Zhang Ya clutched her neck, her face filled with astonishment.

[Successfully defeated player Zhang Ya, your level has increased to LV11]

Kill Zhang Ya first to prevent Huang An from escaping.

Huang An stuck out her pink tongue and licked her sexy little lips: "My prey has been killed by you, so you will become my prey."

"Prey? Heh." Zhou An sheathed his sword and walked towards Huang An.

Upon seeing this, Huang An's expression changed slightly, but she did not move.

As Zhou An drew closer, Huang An made his move when they were only three meters apart.

However, instead of attacking with the paper knife, she blew Zhou An a kiss.

Kiss of Death —

The next moment, a lip that was visible to the naked eye flew out.

The lips were pitch black, like the mark of death.

Seeing this, Zhou An remained unmoved and continued forward.

The next second, her lips were pressed directly against Zhou An's cheek.

The cool touch made Zhou An pause in his steps.

He hadn't expected that the amulet wouldn't be able to stop the flying kiss.

Does *Cinnamomum camphora* have four tiers? Absolutely not.

If it were truly a fourth-tier cultivator, Huang An would have already dealt with it before Zhou An could even make a move.

Therefore, there is only one conclusion: this flying kiss is a rule skill.

The next instant, Zhou An felt himself bound in place by a force of rules.

"How arrogant you are. I'll take your life," Huang An whispered in Zhou An's ear.

The next moment, the paper knife sliced ​​directly across Zhou An's neck.

However, the next moment, a golden light flashed and directly blocked Huang An's attack.

Upon seeing this, Huang An's expression changed slightly.

Without any hesitation, she kissed Zhou An on the cheek and continued to unleash her rule-based skills.

Meanwhile, Huang An's paper knife launched a frenzied attack on Zhou An.

Zhou An remained expressionless, and with a thought, he activated the power of the horse talisman.

But after clearing the negative status, they found that they regained it the next moment.

It was clearly because Huang An's lips were imprinted on Zhou An's cheek.

With this in mind, Zhou An remained calm and prepared to activate the power of the Tiger Talisman.

But the next second, a flash of light appeared.

Huang An's beautiful head flew into the air, and blood spurted out.

[Player's Spirit Pact member Li Shengsheng has successfully killed player Huang An. Your level has increased to LV12.]

With Huang An's death, the power of the rules dissipated.

Zhou An turned to look at Li Shengsheng: "You don't need to do anything."

Li Shengsheng was trembling all over, and her face was pale.

But her expression remained cold, and she stubbornly said, "She deserves to die!"

The crowd around her didn't pay attention to Li Shengsheng, mainly because she was wearing a stone hat.

“You’re only eighteen this year. Killing someone is too much of a burden for you.” Zhou An stepped forward and gently stroked Li Shengsheng’s head.

Li Shengsheng turned her head away, her right hand holding the knife still trembling, and she could barely hold the murder weapon steady.

"It's alright, it's just killing someone," Zhou An comforted her with a smile, pulling her into his arms.

At the same time, he mentally instructed the evil and benevolent entities to pack their things.

The malevolent entity curled its lip and began to collect its spoils.

The bodies of Zhang Ya and Huang An had vanished without a trace, leaving not a drop of blood on the ground.

All that remained were the Soul Banknotes and a few props left on the ground.

"Come on, go home."

……

At 11 o'clock, Zhou An and Li Shengsheng returned home.

"Uncle, I'm going to take a shower. Your phone card is all set up; it's on the table," Li Shengsheng said.

“Okay, go ahead.” Zhou An nodded slightly and didn’t mention Li Shengsheng’s murder again.

Before long, the sound of running water could be heard from the bathroom.

Zhou An began to take stock of his spoils of war.

Zhang Ya's side only had two ordinary props and nearly three thousand soul coins.

Huang An didn't have much either, only two props and five thousand soul coins.

It's estimated that the reason they have so many soul coins is mostly because Zhou An booked twenty hours for them.

【Paper Knife】: Although it is a paper knife, it can cut through metal.

Effects: Light as a wing, increases sharpness by 50%, and can absorb blood to repair itself.

[Winning Scratch-off Ticket]: I won! I won! I'm not kidding you!

Effect: Tier 1 item, usable in the human world. After use, it can be used to select a scratch-off lottery ticket to win a grand prize of 100,000 yuan.

Zhou An didn't care about paper knives; he had plenty.

But the winning scratch-off ticket made Zhou An's pupils shrink slightly.

"One hundred thousand yuan? For use in the human world? This probably wasn't specially obtained for Huang An by her contracted spirit..."

A smile appeared on Zhou An's face.

This 100,000 yuan is a perfect bargain for Li Shengsheng.

With this 100,000 yuan, Li Shengsheng wouldn't need to worry about making a living for the next few years.

However, Zhou An witnessed the Dark Forest Law firsthand today.

It's true that whoever exposes themselves will attract attention, and some even deliberately expose themselves to lure people in and kill them.

"So, there are still many players in the real world. Could there be an official force involved?" Zhou An pondered.

Under this dark forest law, even if there are official forces, they are definitely not the kind of system that brings them together.

After all, no one knows whether they will attack other players.

"No, we need to be even more discreet, especially with Li Shengsheng. We absolutely cannot let her be exposed." Zhou An was even more determined not to expose himself in the real world.

Unless Zhou An extracts the key talismans, he can barely stop eating beef.

The twelve talismans are definitely not just twelve abilities.

Zhou An felt that this was more like the application of rules.

He gained supernatural powers and felt even more strongly that the twelve talismans were not simple.

Zhou An stopped worrying about the power of the twelve talismans and instead took his new SIM card and put it into his phone.
