A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

Song Yu felt he had hit the jackpot. He could see Zhou An's strength; at the very least, he was at the fifth rank.

After all, he hadn't even gone all out yet, and he had already instantly killed the level 40 Twilight Bell.

A level 5 expert carried her through a dungeon at high speed; she made an incredible profit.

So here's the question: if both of them made a fortune, who lost out?

"Let's finish this quickly and go straight into the dungeon."

“There will be a major change next month, and I think you should have been informed,” Song Yu said in a deep voice.

"Well, do you know anything specific?" Zhou An nodded, then looked at Song Yu.

Song Yu shook his head: "I don't know the specifics either; the official sources haven't made it clear."

"Or perhaps they knew the information through the Book of Wisdom, but were unable to express it."

"The Book of Wisdom?" Zhou An pondered these three words.

"You don't know? Well, you've only just joined the official team. The Book of Wisdom is a top-tier rule item, and also the official team's strongest item."

"I can't say for sure, your access level isn't high enough yet, you need to be LV30." Song Yu didn't explain what he already knew, even though he wasn't even level 30 himself.

Zhou An didn't bother to ask. If nothing unexpected happened, he would be level 30 when he returned from the next dungeon.

After returning, I leveled up to level 25 immediately, and after killing Twilight Bell again, I leveled up to level 26.

"By the way, what level are you now?" Song Yu asked again.

“I’m 26.” Zhou An picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth.

"26 already? How did you level up so fast?" Song Yu's pupils contracted slightly.

An Yufei exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap, that's awesome! You've only cleared the dungeon three times, right? And even with an S rating each time, you only got 15 points. How many players did you kill?"

Zhou An smiled calmly and offered no explanation.

Song Yu said in a deep voice, "In that case, your level 20 ability should have already been awakened."

"But it's not a big problem. You'll be level 30 when you come back from the next dungeon. Remember not to awaken then, wait until after the big change before leveling up."

"Awakening after a major upheaval? Why?" Zhou An felt that even though he had joined the official ranks, he didn't seem to have gained much information.

"Huh? Didn't you see the official message you received?" Song Yu looked at Zhou An with a puzzled expression.

"Um... there are too many words, I'm too lazy to read them." Zhou An was a little embarrassed.

Before going to sleep yesterday, the official sent an email on the Ghost Affairs Bureau APP. When he opened it, there was a long string of text.

Most of them introduce the official structure, along with some other matters.

It was over 30,000 words long, and Zhou An only glanced at a few pages before losing interest.

"From now on, you should read all the emails sent by the Bureau of Ghostly Affairs."

"Although the official explanation is not specific, it is always safe to listen to the official explanation. Fortunately, my abilities have not yet awakened even though I have reached level 20."

Song Yu was almost unable to contain himself, but thankfully the official information was sent in time.

"Hmm." Zhou An nodded slightly, then took out his phone to check.

Sure enough, the email ended with this very topic.

There was no explanation, just advice.

However, to be honest, Zhou An hasn't actually awakened his level 20 abilities yet.

He wanted to see what kind of talisman he would draw in the next dungeon, and then use that to awaken which type of ability.

Looking back now, it was just right.

"We've almost finished eating the hot pot, let's head out," An Yufei said.

"What do you mean 'withdraw'? I'm only three-tenths full." Li Shengsheng said, taking out her phone to scan the QR code and placing a lot more orders.

“Three…three-tenths full?” An Yufei stammered as he looked at Li Shengsheng.

"My wallet is about to collapse! This meal has already cost almost 500 yuan." An Yufei was on the verge of tears.

"I don't care, you said you were going to treat us." Li Shengsheng said expressionlessly.

"Xiao Fei, since you're treating us to dinner, are you going to let us leave hungry?" Zhou An said with a smile to An Yufei.

"Eat, you guys eat as much as you want, I'll get reimbursed by the authorities," An Yufei said fiercely.

It seems that getting reimbursed through official channels is still a real headache.

Half an hour later, everyone left their seats.

An Yufei reluctantly paid 1,300 yuan.

The cashier looked at An Yufei and Li Shengsheng with a strange expression.

How can people eat so much?

“Zhou An, let’s enter the instance now,” Song Yu said, taking out the invitation.

Zhou An nodded, then looked at Li Shengsheng: "Li Shengsheng, go back by yourself later. Remember to go to bed early, you have class tomorrow."

“Okay, Uncle.” Li Shengsheng nodded.

Song Yu immediately used the invitation.

The next instant, Zhou An heard a notification sound.

[Player Song Yu invites you to join the instance: Yin Yang Agency. Do you agree?]

"Agreed," Zhou An murmured.

The two disappeared at the same time in the next instant.

"Sheng Sheng, let me take you home," An Yufei said solicitously as he approached.

"No, you're too ugly," Li Shengsheng refused outright.

"It's...too...ugly!" An Yufei froze on the spot, clutching his chest as if he had suffered a huge blow.

By the time he came to his senses, Li Shengsheng had already disappeared into the elevator.

"These days, all the young girls are obsessed with looks, sigh." An Yufei sighed and slowly walked towards the elevator.

……

When Zhou An came to his senses, he found himself in front of an old building.

Standing beside him was Song Yu, who was tall and voluptuous.

The building wasn't tall, only five stories, and there was nothing around it.

The first floor is a large service hall.

There is also a plaque that reads: Yin Yang Affairs Office.

[Enter the instance: Yin Yang Agency]

[Instance Type: Special Multiplayer Instance]

Number of participants: 2

After Song Yu came to his senses, he pulled Zhou An into the service hall on the first floor.

"Human? Hmm? You got our job offer?" A strange security guard stared intently at the Yin-Yang Agency's invitation letter in Song Yu's hand.

"Yes, we need to process our onboarding. Who should we contact?" Song Yu composed herself and asked calmly.

"To complete your onboarding process, go to the Human Resources department," the security guard said, pointing directly into the distance.

Song Yu immediately thanked him and walked over there with Zhou An.

After walking a few steps, Zhou An faintly heard the security guards muttering, "Two second-tier humans dare to take up the job? They're asking for death."

Soon they knocked on the door of the human resources department office.

"Come in!" A clear, cold female voice came from inside.

The two immediately pushed open the door and entered.

"Process your onboarding." Song Yu took the invitation letter, walked to the desk, and placed it on it.

The HR staff member glanced at the two of them with some surprise, but didn't say anything. Instead, they processed their onboarding in a professional manner.

"The internship procedures have been completed. Here is your new recruit equipment."

"Your internship period is seven days. Once you complete your work, you will be officially hired as a Ghost Sealer at the Yin-Yang Bureau."

"During this period, you can move freely within the city of Yinsha with your work permits, but remember, your mission must not be compromised."

"If you fail even once, you will be expelled, and you will never want to know the consequences of being expelled."

"As work partners, you will receive the same punishment," the HR staff member said with a sneer.

Zhou An and Song Yu didn't say anything, but simply took over their newbie equipment.

There wasn't much equipment, only two pieces.

【Evil Spirit Container】: Made by the Yin-Yang Affairs Bureau using special methods, it can absorb and contain a corrupted ghost or evil spirit, or absorb the source of the corruption.

Effect: Rule item that can contain a dying, incapacitated evil spirit. It can hold up to a level 9 evil spirit, but can only hold one at a time.

[Dedicated Mobile Phone for Yin-Yang Affairs]: This is a business mobile phone specially customized by Youming Communications Group for Yin-Yang Affairs. It can be used to receive and complete tasks.

Song Yu's equipment was the same as his, consisting of these two items.

This Yin-Yang Agency is quite capable, able to mass-produce rule-based items like the [Evil Spirit Container].

"Beep beep beep!" Suddenly, Zhou An and Song Yu's dedicated cell phones rang at the same time.

When Zhou An opened his phone, red subtitles appeared on the screen.

A source of contamination has been detected in Room 301, Unit 1, Building 3, Xiongshiling Residential Area, Blood Rain District. Please go there within one hour to remove the contaminant.

Zhou An looked at Song Yu, whose phone also displayed the same image.

[Clearance Mission Unlocked]: Complete at least four clearance missions within seven days. Each additional mission completed will increase your score reward.
